together. and bore hole through both.
The hole must be one-Quarter inch
thick so that Il dowel can be pushed
through. Put the dowel in place, then
nail both sides to the base of the ele-
vatOr.
The crank Is hairpn. Straighten
out a hairpin, heat one end and burn
a hole through one end of the dowel.
leave the end of the pin and bend the
hairpin around the dowel two or three
times. Put three screw eyes In the top
of the elevator. and with stout linen
thread string it up as shown In the
picture.
A derrick may be made out Of few
pieces of wood in comparatively
short time. The best kind to make IS
one about foot high made of dowels.
The base of the derrick may be made
Of one or two pieces of wood, so that
it will be solid and strong. Half-inch
wood, like that found on the side OF
soap boxes. make the best. Make the
base about six by eight inches.
At one end bore hole, and in It
stick dowel about Il foot long. Cut
another dowel about nine inches long.
to be used as a boom. TO fasten this
to the mast is easy II directions are
followed. Secure a ring and screw
such as are used to fasten the string
on roller shades. With hairpin barn
a hole in one end Of the dowel and
screw in the ring and screw. If this
Is not burnt in. the wood might split.
Tie string from the boom to top
of mast, in which n small nall has
been put in hole burned in the mast.
TO make the crank shaft and supports,
cut two pieces Of wood three inches
long and an inch wide.
Hold them together and bore a hole
in one end large enough to hold short
length Of dowel. Nail these in place
after the dowel has been put in place.
The crank IS made by Strengthening n
hairpin, burning a hole with it in one
end Of the dowel. and. leaving the end
still in the hole. twist it around the
dowel and into the form of crank.

means for the production of sound. are
none the less capable OF making n
noise in the world. A notable instance
of this Is to be found in locust re-
joiclng in the euphonious name OF
Microcentrum tetinervis. which pro-
duces short. monotonous note like
two pieces Of metal or flint rubbed to-

SO far the field Of insect voices has
not been widely explored. 1t would
be interesting to study them from the
point of view of musical notation. and
also to determine whether their song
alters in any way according to season,

meteorological conditions. - Scientific

One of the easiest things in the
world to make is a toy elevator. They
can be made as high as table. so
that toys may be lifted from the floor
to n table, or only few inches high.
One thing only 1t Is necessary to Sc
cure. and that is pair Of smooth
sticks on which the elevator may slide.
These sticks may be purchased at any
hardware store. They are called dow
els, are three feet long, and are of
different thicknesses. One-fOurth inch
thick Is the best size to use.
The elevator may be any small
wooden box whose bottom Is removed.
One may be made of wood half an
inch thick. The right size to make
such a box would be four inches high
and two inches wide. Screw four
screw eyes into the sides through
which the bowels will slide. Double
pointed tacks may be used il screw
eyes are not available.
After the eyes are screwed in and
the two bowels slid in place, stand 1t

call Maggie. But one day, when she
was able to leave her room, she made
her way to the nursery and peeped in.
There was no one there: only broken
toy upon the floor told OF the boys
existence. Maggie had gone out upon
an errand She had seen the sturdy
old figure trot down the street before
she left her room, else she had not
come hither But where was the child?
Afar she seemed to hear sound of
sobbing-soft, heavy sobbing. like that
faster. The little stair door leading to
the attic stood open. She followed
the sounds, and climbed the stairs.
There she saw a scene that seemed
to take away her strength. The Win
ter sunlight fell through the skylight
in broad, slantlng stream. In the
flood of gold stood Il picture-the por-
trait Of woman, fair and young.

she came thither to take her place.
She could not stir or speak And
as she sat there, some one else climbed
the stairs-her husband. Marla's hus-
band-the father Of these two chill
dren; the weeping one here, the smil-

wife and mother arose and crept up
to the boy and gathered him to her
bosom.

Then she took Freddie by the hand
and his blue eyes looked no longer an

essay to push her from him as Of
yore And she led him down to the
little crib where the newborn child
lay smiling. and laid him beside the
little creature.

TRADEMARK ARTIST TALKS.
Most Successful Idea In Signature
and Coined Word,

Art is Il fancifu mistress and has
many wOoers. One Of the latest is the
trademark maker. There are half
dozen prosperous members of this trade
in the city. The best-known is an
Irish American with more wit than
talent for line or color. He was a
mediocre lawyer before he took to in
venting trademarks for merchants.
His legal knowledge makes his ser
vices doubly valuable, says the New
York Post.
"There are lots of tricks in this
his eyes open. Did you know one
couldn't register trademark unless
he was Il merchant or engaged in Il
business of some kind? An inSurrec-
ZIONIST or an exile cannot register eth
err. but Indians and married women
can. although some States with an
tique laws won't allow them to own
property in their own names. Women
get us into Il lot of trouble. A com
pleXion maker ordered Il mark called
Easter Lily Balm. 1t didn't go. be-
cause it had nothing of the Easter lily
in 1t.
Another woman collected insects
eggs and preserved them and ordered
mark. American Caviar. That was
void. too. Then the feminine mind de-
lights in actresses names for goods,
and If there is any possibility Of the
histrions cvc' going into the business
the marks $ yest. the government re-
fuses to reg ar With historic names
such as De y Madison, Martha Wash
ington, etc It's all right.
animals make splendid marks and
give the artist Il chance. think the
most successful idea, however, is the
signature and newly coined word. In
tie former patent-medicine makers
turn out the most novelties, and In the
latter the cereal-fOOd manufacturers
Some of these merchants think nothing
of turning out new food and new
mark each month. Sometimes prizes
are offered for newly coined words. and
sometimes the artist supplies the word
the legal knowledge of registry and
the sketch OF the mark. In this case
there is bound to be a splendid finan
cial return. The latest thing is the
collector of trade marks and labels

THE LETTER FROM THE FARM.

After the day with its work and worry
After the restless rush and rattle,
The mad gold chase the pitiless hurry.
The killing blows Of endless battle;
After it all there comes a pause.
A peaceful hour of calm.
When he sits alone. and smiling reads
The letter from the farm:-
How the old brown hen has set at last :
How little Joe is growing fast;
How Ben and Mary spent the day.
And Jeans the "best yet" at croquet;
Oh. what a homely. hearty charm
About that letter on the farm.
After the play with its jests and laugh
ter
And painted smiles hiding God knows
what;
And the reckless revelry coming after.
When the fever cools and the joy stays
not.
After it all there comes pause,
An hour of bitter calm
When ne sits alone, and tears fall wet
On the letter from the farm:
How the mothers heart yearns for her
son:
How Tom has paid the mortgage of;
And Joe is well of the whooping cough.
Oh, what note of vague alarm.
Runs through that letter from the farm.
After the Service all uplifting.
Mid deep new throbs Of a contrite soul;
The crimson light through rich glass
sitting
And solemn tone of the organs roll;
After il all bides with him still
A blessed hour of calm;
When he sits alone and prayerful reads
The letter from the farm
How they all drove owed to Little Greek
To hear the new young preacher speak;
How his words were good and pure and
true,
With hope for all and comfort. too.
Oh, what n tender. healing balm
Breathes from that letter from the farm.

INSECTS THAT ARE MUSICAL.
All Arc TenOrs-MaIeS Are Always
the Musicians.

Musical insects of the winged type
may be divided into two groups: Cd
Those which do not Use their wings
and (2) those which do, for the produc-
ton of sound or the two, the latter
species is by far the most numerous.
A very curious fact is that all insects
are tenors, deep bass voices being
quite unknown; in addition to this,
the males are always the performers.
female insects being dumb-cOntenting
themselves with stopping Mt home ana
looking after the children instead OF
standing at the front door singing like
their lords and masters.
Many insects sing by day, such, for
instance, as the chickadee. which. how
ever, are not of the "violinist' type.
as they play upon Il series of hard
plates attached to the abdomen, much
in the same way as Spanish dancer
uses the castanets. Another insect of
this type Is the black field cricket.
which has its home in small, cave
like dwelling it prepares in the earth.
OtDpr lnSttlS OulN bluk ~
such for instance, as the domestic ana
tree crickets, whose regular modulated
notes are known to everyone. The APP
paratus used by these Insects exactly
resembles a violin, the abdomen being
partially endowed with small bridge
like edges or ridges, against which the
wings are rubbed, thus producing the
strident note characteristic of the In
sect
Other insects, such as locusts and
their kin, have verltable bows covered
with fine ridges and attached to the
wings by two buttonlike growths.
Others have cavities covered over with
fine membrane which serves the Of
flee of resonators; in almost all In
sects OF this type there Is parch-
ment- like part of the abdomen which
acts as kind of sounding board.
Strange to say. many Of these har-
monous insects are deprived Of hear
ing. Crlckets, however, are an excep-
ton, as they have sharp ears and cease
their vocal efforts at the sound of APP
preaching footsteps. Some insects, al

If boys had teeth like crocodiles,
How terrible would be their smiles.
How it would shock the human eye
To see them eating apple pie.
If little girls had horns like deer.
They surely would look very queer.
And it would be n sad affair
To see them doing up their hair.
If men had long legs like CRATES.
No doubt it would cause many laughs;
But what would be their dreadful plight
Trying to lie In bed at night!
