THE COTTON GIN.


How Ell whitney, Its Invento,
His Great Idea,
Eli Whitney, the inventor of tho :.
ton gan, got the germ Of his great " W.
from seeing through the interstico.
a hut an old negro work a hand "
among the freshly picked cotton ,,'s'
within.
The teeth Of the saw tore tbo +,
from the seed easily and quickv ~!
young Whitney Che was barely th,, s
at the time) realized at once th,.
machine working number Of sima.
saws simultaneously would reyolnN.s
ize the cotton growing industry S
He said nothing to anybody. In, :.
to wo.k building models and e,,..
menting. His difficulties were sns'
nous, for he not only had to make h.
own wheels. cogs, etc, but he had ~
first to forge his own tools and evo, !.
manufacture the paint wherewith "
color his many plans and drawings
But he succeeded in the end a.,
though the outbreak of war and o,s.'
hindrances prevented the inyentss
from being actually placed upon \.
market until many years afterv,s
the first complete cotton gin ever c.s
structed was built from those vs,,
models and plans and with SEARCH,
single alteration.

liquid passing by capillary action
through these bodies. However, the
power of absorption is not only varia-
BILE for each body, but is also limited, a
piece of blotting paper, for example,
being saturated for height of only
one inch. Mr.. Leboyer, however, has
found a stone which absOrbs water to a
vertical height Of as much as three
inches. This stone is called the domite
of Auvergne, and with it the inventor
has constructed the little motor repre-
scented in this drawing.
Two square sheets of this stone are
placed vertically in basin filled with
water. At the upper portion of the
stones and in contact with them there
have been placed pieces of amadou, a
soft, spongy substance consisting Of
the more solid portion of fungus
growth soaked in saltpeter, which fall,
as is indicated by the drawing, on a
wheel. This wheel is formed Of pad
dies Of superimposed blotting paper,
and on the axis is placed a strap with
two miniature pals. 1t is easy to I'M
ucIStduu WudI IOllOWS. 4uc WdlcI dU-
sorbed by the supports Of stone is in
turn absorbed by the amadou and then
by the paddles in contact The left side
of the wheel then grows heavy and the
wheel turns, equilibrium then setting
in until the water of the soaked por-
ton is evaporated. After this there is
again rupture of equilibrium, and the
wheel turns slowly or rapidly, accord
ing to the state of the atmosphere. The
little pals mount and descend, raising
the water to about seven-tenths Of an
inch.-Literary Digest.

GEORGE WASHINGTON.

The Father of His Country Was
Quite an Athlete.
When Washington was commander
in chief Of the army on one occasion he
went to the quarters Of Colonel limo
thy Pickering, who had negro serv-
ant named Primus. He found the colo
mel absent, but to Primus' apology re-
piled:
1T does not matter. l am greatly in
need Of exercise, and you must help
me to get some before your master re-
turns"
Under Washington's direction the ne
gro tied a rope to neighboring tree,
breast high. Primus was ordered to
stand at some distance and hold it hor-
izontally extended. Washington ran
forward and backward for some time,
jumping over the rope as he came and
went, until he was satisfied with his
exercise.
He learned fencing when quite young.
His teacher was an old soldier who
had seen service in the Indies. His
stone throwing feats across the Kappa
hammock, over the Palisades and to the
top Of the Natural bridge in Virginia
are mentioned by all his biographers.
Charles PeaIe. the artist, tells us
when he was painting his picture at
Mount Vernon in 1772 he saw him toss
a bar very much farther than several
young experts who were testing their
strength that way.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1905-05-20

Hold 1t over heat until it is thoroughly
warm, but be careful not to scOrch it.
Then lay it down on the table and rub
it vigorously with the palm of your
hand (see that your hand is thoroughly
dry beforehand), using rapid back
and forth movement
When you think you have produced
sufficient friction stop the rubbing, and
hold the sheet of paper horizontally
over the butterflies, nearer and near
er. until you observe the butterflies
rising toward the paper, as they will
do.
After that as long as the electricity
generated by the friction lasts you can
make the butterflies follow the sheet
Of paper around and around, this way
and that, for all the world as If they
were living and were tanned butter
flies.
Try it. You may not succeed at first,
but keep at it, and you will be success
full

tanned BUTTERFLIES.

They Are Made Of Tissue Paper, but
You Can Make Them Fly.
This is very interesting as well as
pretty experiment.
Take tissue paper and cut out fig
ures to represent butterflies. Color
them if you wish with crayons and not
with paints. Then fasten silk thread
to each butterfly and bring the ends of
the threads together, lacking them
down as you see in the picture.
Now take a sheet Of good, stin pa
per. such as page from magazine.

A Webster RetOrt

1t Is related of Mr.. Webster th,,
when he was secretary of state be W,
one day reading at cabinet meetIn,
a draft Of a message he had wri,.o
for the president to transmit to ON
gress. AS he went on he was constau
~ interrupted by one of the membe,
with suggestions until. losing patiepcs
he turned to him and said, "Sir, yml
might as well expect seven hens to lsv|
one egg as seven men to construct ops|
message"

Method In Her Decfsfon.

Higgins-My wife says if | shoun
die she would remain a widow m.
til death. OF course she might chapge
her mind, but it is sort of consolIug
just the same. Jinks-Evidently your
wife thinks there is no other man IN
the world like you. Higgins-On the
contrary, she's afraid there Is and that
she'd get him.-Boston Transcript

BY Another Name.

Edna had been In the house for sew
eraI DAYS with a cold. She refused to
eat anything, much to the worry OF
her mother, who feared she would be-
come very weak.
Edna insisted she was as strong as
ever, but later aptly described her con-
fdition by saying:
Mother, I don't feel one bit weak,
but my legs feel little bow leggedy."

M.rxelou. Strength of Birds.

Birds can eat and digest from ten to
thirty times as much food in proportion
to their size as men can. Ii man
could eat as much in proportion to his
size as a sparrow is able to consume
he would need a whole sheep Tor DIN
ner, couple Of dozen chickens for
breakfast and six turkeys for his even
ing meal. A tree sparrow has been
known to eat 700 grass seeds in day.
Relative to the birds size, these seeds
were as big as an ordinary lunch bas-
ket would be to full grown man.
