The children are paid by the pound OF

the stiff, shining green leaves wilted and

In most foreign countries this rolling Is
done by the hands of the natives. but at
Pinehurst the operation is performed in a
glistening copper machine. which is given
an ingenious double rotary motion. This
rolling breaks the oil cells in the leaf and
renders the essential quality of the herb

ticular use that marks the advancement
and real Qualification of the bandanna.
1t was a young ST. Louis VOID 4 who
first discovered kimona possibilities In the
bardanna. The inspiration came to her
year ago. when inspecting a beautifully
embroidered satin jacket. such as the
women of China wear. brought from abroad
by friends who had travelled in the Orient.
The jacket was made of straight pieces.
The same arrangement is followed in max
ing the gowns of japanese women though
the japanese gown is long. to the feet.

MANUFACTURES HUMAN VOICE.

without the vowes consonants would
be useless; without the vowels there would
be no language"
In these words a famous student OF
rhetoric once expressed human obligation
to the five sounds a. e. /, o, u, but French
scientist has lust demonstrated that the
novels are not equally dependent on man.
He has shown that the sounds of the hu-
man voice can be reproduced with perfect
accuracy, not as in the case of the yhono-
graph by merely repeating sounds spoken
by q person. but by q process which Is pure
my mechanical from start to finish and in
which no word Is ever spoken by any hui
man being.
Doctor Marage Is the name Of this wizard.
He is one Of the best-known members OF
the French Academy of Medicine.
He has for years made an advanced study
of the phenomena OF sound.
His belief that the currents Of air could
be controlled and set into vibration in such
a manner that they would resemble the
spoken voice came to him when he was
investigating the acoustic tricks by which
sorcerers OF old were won't to amaze the
credulous.
The oracles of Lesbos and Delphi were
the wonders Of the ancient world, and a
great religion made its strongest appeal to
its votaries through the belief that every
day the colossal sandstone statue Of Mem
non greeted the sun when 1t rose with q
mighty word Of welcome.
It is indisputable that some sound did
come from the seated figure with the up
lifted finger at the precise moment when
the rays Of tho sun warmed its gilded lips.
But there is nothing marvellous In this.
Doctor Marage says. According to his
theory the causes were purely natural.
The air in certain cavities of the statue
was warmed into expansion by the heat OF
the sun. and somewhere found a vent
through which. in escaping. 1t made tho
sound that SO mystified the ancients.
Doctor Marage can get precisely tho Same
effect Instead Of a great statue Of an idol
he uses q series of plaster heads. These
reproduce all i've Of the familiar vowel
sounds. and an impression Of realism Is
given to the process by the fact that tho
casts have mouths in exactly the form that
sounds that are the foundation Of the spok-
en- tongue.

HOW THE LEAGUE
BASEBALL IS MADE,

WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
only TWO factories In the country make
baseballs officially recognized by organized
leagues. One OF these factories turns out
about 400 balls day. or 100000 every year.
and about one-fifth OF these are regulation
league balls.
The remainder are the cheaper sort which
may DO purchased for from cents up to
dollar.
The making Of the league ball is a very
careful and painstaking process 1t begins
as a small globe Of India rubber about one
inch in diameter
A few layers Of coarse yarn are wound
around this. and then 1t goes to the winding
machines.
The ball Is then wound with four-ply blue
yarn about as thick as ordinary coarse
Irvine. At frequent intervals 1t Is soaked in
q cement solution and put aside to dry.
This preserves the shape of the ball and
the solution holds it more firmly together.
In the course Of winding the ball goes
through many different hands. and each
workman tests 1t for size and weight be-
fore passing It along. The machines are
necessary to make tho winding even and
tight and there are different machines.
according to the size Of the yarn used and
the size which the ball has attained.
These machines insure tight. firm. regular
winding and a perfect and symmetrical
shape.
Care Is also taken that the ball be wound
to Just the proper size. The process by these
machines Is conducted in secret in locked
room by trusty workmen.
After the ball has received its winding
OF blue and white yarn. Its treatment in
the cement solution and It's drying out. it
Is wound again, and this time with three
ply blue and two-ply white. and again 1t is
dipped in cement.
The purpose Is to lay a rough. strong
foundation and then build up on 1t. filling In
the uneven places and gradually making the
perfect ball ready for the market.
The ball n completed. so far as its shape
and form are concerned. when the winding
IL finished.
But next comes the delicate work of put
ting on the cover. The best of horsehide IS
used, and It comes to the factory as nearly
perfect as II can be procured.
Covers OF every grade are cut from
single hide. and the man that can cut the
most high-grade covers from the hides Is
considered the best man.
They are cut out by hand. one at a time,
and all thrown into box together. TO be
sorted afterwards. Before they are cut the
hide IL stretched. and before the cover is
put on the ball 1t is dampened and
stretched again.
This prevents the ball from losing it,
shaps and the coysk from becoming loela

WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
The bandanna has figured in rolitics-it has
ever been accepted as sign of thorough
democratic tendencies when carried by
man running for Office while on his cleo
toneering iunkets about the country.
A pr.n. white. hemstitched handkerchief
whisked from pocket to mop the moist
brow of the stump speaker has never had
the moving qualities of bandanna.
The fiirt of the bandana says TO the farm
er and townsfolk: He is one of us. Moth
ing of the snob or aristocrat about this
man. He's one Of the people-a plain. sure
enough American citizen. willing to earn his
living by the sweat of his brow"
The bandanna has been the handkerchief
favored Of the workingman for a period the
beginning OF which is lost In obscurity. In
other words. the bandanna though an honest
article of the wardrobe. has always been OF
more or less plebeian association.
But. behold the change. its evolution. the
eloritication of the bandanna
1t has entered the boudoir.
All winter We have seen It growing in pop
ular favor as cover for sofa cushions. By
a simple and ingenious arrangement Of
squares, put together with headings" run
with ribbons and fiounced about by squares
or points. the handanna has held its own
against the more expensive cushion covers
Of silk or velvet.
ARTISTIC POSSIBILITIES
OF THE ORDINARY ARTICLE.
So novel was the idea, SO surprising the
artistic possibilities OF the common. ordi-
nary big handkerchief printed all over with
dots. diamonds or squares, with q highly
decorative border!
Many approved tho new use OF the big
cotton handkerchief once scorned or ignored
by the elite.
Though for long the bandana was only
the associate Of the poor and lowly. 1t Is Of
aristocratic origin. Its name comes from
the Hindoo "bandhnu," signifying a mode
OF dyeing with threads SO tied that the
parts tied will not receive the dye: and
these difficulty dyed materials being only
within reach Of those Of means. long years
ago they represented tho choicest OF tho

a change called oxidation takes place in IT,
Just as farmers hay. left standing in the
cock too long. turns brown. the process OF
oxidation changes the color of the leaves
from green to brown. 1t is this change, or
the lack of it. which makes the difference
between black and green tea.
1t is only rather recently that green tea
has been made at Pinehurst. The black tea
passes from the oXidating-room to the dry
irg-room and from there to the packing de-
partment. where it Is put up in tin boxes.
The leaves which are to be made into green
tea must be hurried from the plant to the
