REFLECTOR FOR LOGS.
West Virginian's Unique Invention
to Indicate the Most EcOnOm-
ical Cuttings.

In the operation of sawmill the
sawyer customarily takes his stand
near the saw, from which position he
is able to reach all the levers which
control the carriage and saw and to
adjust the logs in position for cutting.
1t is important that the sawyer should
know with the least possible loss of
time whether there are splits or cracks
in the ends of the log, and part of the
value of skillful mill sawyer lies in
his ability to judge the logs under his

Valentines day.
Zone of the best known facts of
Roman history is concerning the
Lupercalia. You have often heard
or read of great gatherings on the
Lupercal, where the carnivals were
held. You must certainly remember
Marc Antony's speech, in which he
says to the Roman populace: You all

1.-The relation of the Iupercal to st.
Valentines day is very simple. 1t was
the church which set aside the 14th
day of February in memory of the
Saints Valentine; but the custom of
freaky celebrations existed long be-
fore the church existed. The 18th day
of February was the day set apart
by the heather of very ancient Rome
for the street acrobatic performances,
the carnivals, tumbling, pantomimes;
& sort of Mardi Gras, such as is now
a-days celebrated in New Orleans.
