How to Make Beesyyux.

The following recipe for beeswax
can be vouched for: After the combs
have been put through an extractor or
crushed and strained through thin
cloth the wax is put in copper or
porcelain lined kettle, with cold water
enough to cover it, and boiled for half
an hour, or longer il it seems neces-
sary. When the wax is taken from
the stove it is strained and poured in
vessel previously dipped in cold
water. To make a round cake Of bees
wax pour the melted wax in a bowl
that has been dipped in cold water.
TO make wax sheets use board three
eighths Of an inch thick, dampened
with warm water, then dipped in the
melted wax two or three times. The
board is next put in water to cool for
n little while, after which 1t is taken
out, the edges trimmed with sharp
knife and TWO sheets Of wax peeled of.
To make these wax sheets the wax
must not be too hot or 1t will crack.

The "Tale Of n Tub"

One of the most ancient OF All sea
yarns" is one that ships have escaped
from the fearsome monsters OF the
deep by throwing them Il tub to divert
their attention, in much the same way
that a landsman might sacrifice gar
ment in order to escape bull. II
MINISTER'S "Cosmogral,hy," published
in 1914, there is picture of vessei
escaping from a whale by tii!s strata
gem. while the earlier editions Oh
Swift's Tale of Tub" have similar
one. These stories were usually told
in such an incoherent way that people
became skeptical of their truth, aud
when a pleader named Tubb put Il
cause before Sir Thomas More III out
rageously rambling language that ciiah
ccllor jocularly remarked, Here IS Il
tale of tub" Thereafter the express
sion became part Of the slang OF the
period until much later it was raised
to Il higher rank by becoming tie title
of Swift's famous work.

How to Cut Glass.

Glass can be cut without diamond,
and the way is very simple. Dip a
piece of common string in alcohol and
squeeze it reasonably dry. Then tie
the string tightly around the glass on
the line of cutting. Touch match to
the string and let it burn off. The
heat of tie burning string will weaken
the glass in this particular place. While
it is hot plunge the glass under water,
letting the arm 60 under well to the
elbow, so there will be no vibration
when the glass is struck. With the
free hand strike the glass outside the
line of cutting, giving quick, sharp
stroke with any long fiat instrument
such as Il stick of wood or long
,bladed knife, and the cut will as clean
and straight as if made by regular
glass cutter.

Sound Waves.

The sensation Of sound, as Is well
known, is produced by certain to and
fro or wave-like movement Of the air
striking upon the drum of the ear and
so setting it in vibration. Each sound
wave consists Of two portions. In one
of which the air Is compressed beyond
and in the other raretied below the av-
erage pressure. If two sound waves
are travelling in the same direction, but
one of them starts half wave length
behind the other, the compressed half
Of one will fall upon the raretied half
Of the other, the average air pressure
will remain undisturbed, and the two
sounds will combine to produce silence.
If q sounding tuning fork be slowly
rotated near the ear four positions will
be found in which the sound will be
barely audible This is due to such in
reference of sound waves as has been
described.

Not Good for samoans.
CIVILIZED CLOTHING REsPoNsIBLE FOE
MUCH PNEUMONIA AND PLEURIsY.

"The natives of Samoa" says Surgeon
Spear of the navy, In recent report,
''are beginning to wear white mems
clothes, much to the detriment OF their
health. The climate Is essentially wet
one. In former times o native would
rub little cocoanut oil on his skin and
20 out into the rain, and when he reach
ed shelter, there was nothing to dry but
his lsva-iava' or breech-cloth. The
same native now goes out into the rain,
his modern clothes soon become wet,
and, before he realizes it, he Ii chilled
through, for the rain in Samoa Is always
| from 8 degrees to 10 degrees colder than
the atmosphere. Pneumonia, bronchitis
and tuberculosis, naturally follow. The
present law prohibits the sale OF alco-
holic beverages to the natives. AS q
matter of fact, the natives care very lit
tie for alcohol; they prefer their native
drink, 'kava'. The restriction Is wise
one and should be continued.
1.-THE Samoans are very superstitious,
and when taken sick they imagine devils
are inside them. Almost every old
woman and man has q sure cure Tor
driving out these devils. This is &C
complished by 'lomi lomi' (massagtng)
and by internal administration and exter-
nal application of various decoctions
made from leaves. If a cure results, the
deyiA have been driven out; il, on the
other hand, death follows, the devils are
victorious.
1.-THE traders sell the natives . patent
pain killer which can be used internal
| " as medicine and externally as q lini'
ment. This medicine is very highly
thought of, and the natives will tell you
they have great confidence in it; some
times they name their children after 1t.
A sick Samoan thinks he must walk
when sick, his theory being that he must
move about to regain strength. If he
cannot walk he will bury himself under
clothes, and it is wonderful at times how
they obtain enough air to breathe.
"The usual treatment instituted In
case of pneumonia by the natives Ia
about as follows: The man sits up al:
most continually; he is stuffed with all
sorts of food and decoctions to drive out
the devils, the number of devils being
estimated by the amount of pain. II
much pleurisy exists, there are at least
eight devils in the chest, and 1t requires
energetic treatment to drive them out
The man gets up, walks about as long az
he can, and when he can no longer walk
he lies down and his head is covered up
carefully 80 as to exclude all fresh air
II the man survives the ordeal his at
tendants consider themselves experts in
treating that particular disease"
