The Liberty Bell, which on July
8, 1916, proclaimed the Declaration
of Independence, is almost sacred
to patriotic Americans, and will at
tract many visitors to the Penn
sylvania Building at the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition next year.
The bell is IL feet in circumfer-
ence around the lips. and 7 feet 6
inches around the crown. 1t is 3
feet following the line of the bell
from the lip to the crown, and 2
feet 3 inches over this crown. 1t is
; inches thick in the thickest part
near the lip, and n inches thick in
the thinnest part towards the crown.
The length of the clapper is 3 feet
inches. The total weight is 2, $50
pounds
These words, in capitals, from
Lev. XIV, verse 10, encircle the
crown: proclaim Liberty through
out all the land unto all the in.
habitants thereof"
The bell was originally cast in
London, and was received in
Philadelphia, in August, I7sz. In
less than a month the bell cracked,
and was recast by American work
men. The bell cracked again, and
was silenced for all time while toll
ing the funeral Of John Marshall,
Chief Justice Of the Supreme Court
Of the United States, on July 3,
1895.

from Lusk, Wyomiug, which may be
Of interest to ranchmen who are af-
fectcd BY the fence question:
IN. b. Camplin, special agent OF
the interior department., was here

his talk that so long as the ranchmen
do not quarrel among themselves the
government will not bother any more
about the illegal fencing Of govern

The July Lippinbott's Magazine.

Two years ago Lippincotts Magn-
zine published complete novel called
The Lifting of a Finger which made
a decided hit. The July number now
contains another novel from the same
pen, that of Ina Brevoort Roberts.
Like its predecessor, The Prctcndcrs'
isa tale of modern society treated with
the same brightness and charm, vet
showing great advance in the hand
ling of delicate situations and sublct-
les in plot. Mrs. Roberts surely has
the gift for making love. Those who
are in the game say she does it lust
right. Fer a journey on cars or bout
this story Is an ideal pastime.
All the short stories in July Lippin-
colts are suited to the good old sum
mer time when one is not ashamed to
confess that he wants something not
solid but entertaining. After the nov
el there is touchin- little tale of a
girl to whom passing filtration on
the man s side means eternal rerem-
bering on hers. She can boast that
'her mother had been Boston woman
too. Its title is The Broken Vase

tune who made the big race one fine
day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim, he encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
heat, gave him Il very severe diarrhoea
which it seemed almost impossible to
check. and along in June it became so
bad he expected to die. One day one

while he was rolling about on the
ground in great agony, and in a few
minutes the dose was repeated. The
good effect OF the medicine was notic-
ed in a few minutes, and within an
hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for fortnight. That one
little bottle worked a complete cure,
and he cannot help but feel grateful.
