This catch is formed as shown in the
illustration. The catch consists of a
double spur, the upper n being held
by the ring fastened to the end of the
rope as shown. 1t is released by a pull
on the guide rope, this rope serving also
to draw down the catch for the next
lift.
The driver may be a log of heavy wood
bound with iron rings to add to its
weight, and if the weight needs increas-
the hole filled with lead. The weight
of it is further increased by heavy iron
rings around it. 1t should not be of a
less weight than $50 pounds for common
work, but may be easily increased in
weight by adding more of the binding
rings. The two center posts are the
guides, and each has two scantlings
bolted or spiked to it to secure the driver
safely. The driver is so made that it
slides in these grooves easily, the mo-
ton being aided by the use of any lubri-
cant, such as common axle grease. 1t
will be an additional security to pass
two iron bands around them, which are
bolted to the outside, and so bent as to
afford easy passage through them of the
driver. The driver has a suitable catch
by which it is held in the hook, and the
weight of the driver is firmly supported
by the form Of these clips, which slope
inward a little SO that some force is re-
CURED to spread them by the guides at
the top, which engage with the curved
catch. A pulley is fitted to the bottom OF
the frame, and the hosting rope passes
through this pulley and hooks to the
double-tree attached to the harness.
The draft rope is drawn down after
the driver falls by the light cord, as the
horses are backed to the original place.
and another blow is given. This kind
of machine is used for driving or bor-
ing wells, but when rows of posts or
piles are driven the supports are fitted
into a frame at the bottom so that it
may be moved on rollers, put under
the stills and a plank roadway made for
the machine to move on. 1t is a COM
mon practice to have these rollers made
with holes at the ends so that they may
be turned and moved by means of bars
or hand spikes. Of course when work
is being done the bottom frame is solid
ly secured so that it cannot be misplaced
by the draft rope as 1t raises the driver.

STAFF AND LINE.
One Does the housekeeping" of the
Army and Other Does the
Fighting.

This is an age of specialists, it is
often remarked, and all modern ten
denotes are toward specialization. So
largely true is this that the important
change in the organization of the
army, embodied in the recently insti-
tuted general staff SYSTEM" may be
regarded as an interesting exception,
says Youths Companion.
Officers of the quartermaster's, sub
sistence, medical, pay, ordnance and
other departments which have to do
with the housekeeping" and equip
ping of the army are known as 1.-THE
staff" while those who, as attached to
definite commands, would in time of
wal see fighting service in the field are
known as "the line"
Army officers in the past usually
made their career in the branch of the
service in which they entered. This
will necessarily continue to be the case
with the surgeons, chaplains, dentists,
engineers, veterinarians, signal officers
and most Of the paymasters. But for
several Of the other staff departments
officers will be detailed for a four
years term, after which they must re-
turn, for a time at least, Ito their col
ors." 1t is hoped by this system to
bring about more unity of action in the
military establishment, and a better
welding of it's various parts.
1t has been argued that officers after
long service in a staff corps get out of
touch with the real life of the army.
Much of the work has been at Wash
ington, where they have escaped the
hardship and %privation of actual war.
Perhaps as a result of these conditions
considerable friction has always exist
ed between "the line and the staff"
The new plan is essentially like that
which Won Moltke worked out for the
German army. Since the new law went
into operation we have had no "gen-
eral commanding the army" but in
stead a chief of the staff, whose duty
it Is to act as the immediate adviser of
the secretary of war. In time of hos
%tilities, however, the president, who is
by the constitution commander in chief
of the army, might place the whole
force under a single commander, if it
was found necessary.

A DMIRAL SCHLEY, one of the foremost
II notable heroes of the Nineteenth Century.
A name that starts terror in the heart of every
Spaniard. A man of steady nerve, clearhead,
undaunted courage and prompt decision.
Approached bya friend recently, his opinion
was asked as to the efficacy of Peruna, the
national catarrh remedy. Without the slight
est hesitation he gave this remedy his en-
dorsement. 1t appeared on later converse
ton that Peruna has been used in his family,
where it is a %favorite remedy.
Such endorsements serve to indicate the
wonderful hold that Peruna has upon the
minds of the American people. 1t is out of
the question that so great and famous a man
as Admiral Schley could have any other
reason for giving his endorsement to Peruna
than his positive conviction that the remedy
is all that he says it is.
The fact is that Peruna has overcome all

The Aroma in Butter.

Not long ago a report was sent GU,
from st. Louis to the effect that aroma
was to be recognized there next year
in the scoring Of butter. Later, the
superintendent of the dairy exhibit in
formed us that this was not to apply
TO the competitive exhibit of butter,
but only to the butter made from the
various herds. in competition. Mr.. Su-
dendorf is personally very much OPP
posed to the allowing Of any points for
aroma. He says that butter that scores
high in aroma goes off" quickly, and
is Of little use on the general market.
This Is especially true of butter in
tended for export. Some Of the butter
that is very high in aroma when frs.
made, goes off" even before 1t gets Ia
market.

Well Remembered.

Valley City, N. Oak, Dec. 1.-two years
ago Mrs. Matilda M. Boucher of this place
suffered a great deal with a dizziness in her
head. She was cured of this by a remedy
called Dodd's Kidney Pills, and has not been
troubled since.
Shortly afterwards she had a bad bilious
attack and for this she used Diamond Din
ner Pills and was completely cured in a
short time.
In January, 1908, she had an attack of
Sciatica of which she says:
Il was almost helpless with the Sciatica,
but remembering what Dodd's Kidney
Pills and Diamond Dinner Pills had done for
me before, l commenced a treatment of
these. medicines and in three weeks l was
completely restored to health. l have
great faith in these medicines for they have
been of so much benefit to me-"
Dodd's Kidney Pills are very popular in
Barnes County, having made a great many
splendid cures of Sciatica, Rheumatism and
Kidney Troubles. Many families use no
other medicine.

TWO PRAYERS.
Queer Requests Made in the supplica-
tfOns of Imaginative
Preachers.

Speaking of queer breaks occasionally
made by pastors in addressing their faithful
foeks, here is one that | think takes the
cake" observed a New Yorker to some
friends as they were chatting at the club,
according to the Times.
The case in question was that of a young
clergyman whose imagination sometimes
exceeded his common sense. At any rate,
on one occasion he began his prayer as fol-
lows:
"'0h Lord, we thank Thee that there is
one small spark of grace remaining in our
hearts. Water it, we beseech Thee, Oh
Lord, water it.
THAT reminds me of the ~favorite climax
of the minister of the one church in a little
country place where l was staying one
summer" remarked one of the others when
the laugh had subsidized. HE was of ex.
tremely pacific tendencies and rarely ended
his prayer by any other phrase than the
following:
"'Oh Lord, we pray Thee that the dove
of peace and the eagle of freedom may soar
heavenward together, bearing between them
q banner with the motto, e pluribus in
num-" A-a-men.'"

Chorus

Bif! Bang! a mile a minute
No other method of travel is in it
| want to 60 ripping, skipping and tipping
Away on the Limited Train"
These lines are not original with me. They
are taken from a %tuneful little ditty sung
in George AIDES comedy Peggy from Paris"
The jingle danced through my brain the
other day as w lay on the siding at Prairie
junction, or some such place, to let the
Santa Fe's west bound California Limited
go by. 1t was a gorgeous train of palace
cars, and behind the plate glass observation
windows beauty and fashion and youth and
old age were lolling among the luxuriant
cushions, some visiting, some reading, some
pleasantly doing, some making wreaths Of
cigar smoke, some gazing dreamily through
the. windows at the passing cities, and
fields, and forests and rivers.
l stood on the rear platform of the last
ear of our train and watched the California
Limited as she faded away toward the gold
en- west. And thought of the difference
between travel now and travel in the days
of 40, when it took the gold-seeker half a
long, weary year, filled with all kinds Of
hardships, to travel the distance that is now
covered in three days. | thought of the
slowly moving wagons, the dust, the stones,
the jolting, the thirst, the hunger, the
HOllCSlNhICso, II Sidh INV Sioeoih6 "a
plains, the laborious climbing of mountains,
the weary dragging weeks, the never ending
trail.
In these palaces hat had just glided by
we're people going to the same place to
spend the winter months where the climate
is perpetual summer. And they were not
to endure a single hardship on the journey.
When night came they were to lie in beds
whose soft embrace makes sleep a luxury
and in the day time the velvet cushions of
their seats were to be made deeper still by
pillows-and thy were to spend a delightful
part of their time in the gilded and glittering
dining car, where every dainty that ever
tickled the palate is enticingly served-9.n
short, they were to have on the trip all the
comforts of homeland of the best kind of
home.
1 stood there and watched them pass out
Of sight while my soul was consumed with
envy. But l derived some consolation out
of resolving that sometime |, too, would
see California, and | promised myself that
if | ever did 60 there it would be over the
Santa Fe. "JOHNNY DRUMMER"

In Place OF the Atom.

If we must discard the atom what
are we to accept in it's place? Two new
conceptions have been found necessary
the "ion' as the unit of matter the
"electron" as the unit of force. The
new chemistry holds that matter and
force are different manifestations of the
same thing. Inertia is the character
istic; indeed, the indispensable, property
of both matter and electricity. What
would be simpler than to assume that
the ultimate particles of each are one and
the same? Prof. Fleming has declared
that 1--WE can no more have anything
which can be called electricity apart
from %corpuscles than we can have mo-
mentum apart from matter"

opposition and has won its way to the hearts
of the people. The natural timidity which
SO many people nave felt about giving en-
dorsements to any remedy is giving way.
Gratitude and a desire to help others has
inspired thousands of people to give public
testimonials for Peruna who heretofore would
not have consented to such publicity.
Never before in the annals of medicine has
it happened that so many men of national
and international reputation have been will
ing to give unqualified and public endorse
ments to a proprietary remedy. No amount
of advertising could have accomplished such
a result. Peruna has won or its own merits.

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES,

The creamery is the farmers friend.
Good cows are scarce and hard to
buy at any price.
The man who keeps on good term:
with his COWS will get more milk out OF
them.
The surest way to improve your cows
is through the use of a good bull and
then raise the heifer calves.
Treat your cows as well as you used
to treat your best girl and they will
return your care in increased profit If
not in affection.
A good many things will give milk
poor lasting qualities, but none more
surely or more rapidly than allowing
filth to get into the pail from the cows
body while milking.
Guessing that this or that calf will
make a good COW is pretty costly bust
ness. 1t cost too much to decide
whether or not your guess is a good
one. Better be reasonably sure before
you start out by knowing the calf's
ancestry.-Farm and Home.

Not a Modern Contriynnce.

There are In the British museum wigs
that were worn by women of ancient
Egypt. One may see representations of
wigs in Assyrian sculpture. Modes and
Persians, Greeks and Romans wore
them. They aroused the denunciation
of the early fathers of the church. st.
Bernard said: "The woman who wears
a wig commits a mortal SIM" When the
executioner lifted the head Of Mary
Queen of Scots by the hair to show to the
spectators 1t fell from his hands owing
to the hair being false.
