The startling announcement that a preventive of suicide had been discovered will interest many. A run down system, or despondency invariably precede suicide. and something has been found that will prevent that con- dition which makes suicide likely.

On account of unpaid pledges to the Baptist church building fund the build ing committee has found itself short of being able to pay it's obligations mora than a hundred dollars. When the church was dedicated the debt was lifted off the building and assumed by the members of the committee, who con- sidered the pledges sufficient to pay up all outstanding bills, but have been disappointed to the extent mentioned. The Sunday school will undertake to raise means to meet half of the oblig- ation which now hangs over the building committee.

Dr. Arliss Worthington has decided. so he informed us before leaving last week, to locate permanently in Green Forest. Dr. Warrington is one of the. most promising young men of his pro- fession and we will not object to his coming among us. However, the peo- pie ,hereabouts are "distressingly healthy" The grip is about the only thing that keeps the doctors living who. are here now.

CROCODILE FISHING.
Ingenious Method of Catching the
Beasts Used Ina India.

Ingenious Method of Catching the
Beasts Used In India.
A correspondent of the London Field,
writing on the pursuit of the crocodile
In the Malacca strait, describes the in
genious method of catching the beast
adopted by the natives of the Kedah
river He says: "A small bamboo raft
some two feet square Is constructed,
and on it is erected q flag post sur
mounted by red flag, while from the
underside of the raft, or float run
twenty or thirty yards of stout line,
ending in u few feet of chain To this
chain the barbed hook of hard brass
metal Is attached by three feet of I'M
twisted fiber in order that the fine
ligaments may get between the croco-
dies teeth and thus prevent his snap
ping off the bait. On the shank of the
hook live fowl is made fast. together
with a short length of bamboo. TO give
It fiotation, and then the raft line and
bait are dropped into the river. Loudly
sauawks the unfortunate fowl for a
few minutes, but its sorrows are short
lived. a splash, swirl, the bait has
disappeared, and then the men return
to their homes, leaving boy to mark
the progress of the floating flag. Next
day or the day after half dozen men
paddle down stream until they sight
the raft. Then, taking the line ashore,
they haul away, and as by this time
the hook Is firmly entangled In the
croeodile's intestines, he shows but lit
tie fight and is easily dispatched"

THE HALIFAX GIBBET.
A Sort of GuiIIotine That Was Once
Used In England.

An ancient law of Hardwick forest,
n tract corNtcnsive with Halifax par
ish, is sung by Taylor, the water poet:
At Halifax the law so sharpe doth deale
That whose more than thirteen pence doth
steale,
They have jim that wondrous quick and
well
Sends thieves all headless into heaven or

This "jin" resembled the guillotine

scaffold, unearthed when Gibbet hill
was leveled The AK Is preserved.
This, the only guillotine used IN Eng

his son in 1865, who spoke of 1t as the

STAINED GLASS WORK.


The twentieth century American
stained glass maker follows without
important variation the simple meth
DDS of the French monk of eight cen
turtles ago. The first requisite Is the
design The artist makes small wa
ter color sketch to show the general
design and color scheme, accompany
ing 1t with detailed studies. From this
two large drawings or cartoons are
made. the exact size of the desired
window. One cartoon shows where the
leads Will be placcd-the thin strips
of lead, followed on both sides and
looking in transverse section like the
letter II, which form the framework
to bind the pieces of glass together.
Another drawing gives the size and
shape of each piece of glass. This car
toon is cut into its component pieces by
pair for tripleD of three bladed scis-
sors, which leave between their paral-
lei blades n space sufficient for the
leads. These cut out patterns are put
together again on Il large glass easel,
to which they are attached by wax, and
the spaces between are BACKED In TO
give the effect of the leads.
The easel is then placed against
window where the light can stream
through It, The artist or his substitute
replaces each paper pattern on the easel
by piece of glass of exactly the same
size, cut from a sheet of glass of the
color called for by the color sketch.
The sketch Is not followed exactly;
experiment with the actual glass will
suggest improvements. TO greater
or less extent this stained glass is sup.
plemcnted by painted glass, on which
the colors are fired as in china paint

cut they ARE transferred to the lead

SECOND WIND.


Are In Eufl PIhN.
The following is a popular eXplaha-
ton of what Is known as second wind.
In ordinary breathing we Use only Il
portion of our lungs, the cells mt the
extremity not being brought into play.
This is the reason why those who are
not In training when they try to run
for any distance soon begin to gasp
and unless they are resolute enough 10
perseyere in spite of this choking sen
sation are forced to stop, but If they
persevere the choking goes off and
they acquire what is known AS second
wind.
When this second wind is fully es
tablished the runner does not again
lose his breath, but can run in comfort
as long as his legs will carry him. The
fact is that on starting the farthest
portions of the lungs are choked with
air and the remainder do not supply
enough to meet the increased circua-
ton induced by exercise.
BY degrees, however, the neglected
cells come into play, so that when the
entire lung is in full working order
the circulation and respiration again
balance each other. and second wind
is the result.
