Cattle Byproductr.

Cattle furnish, besides food. no end OF
articles in common use. Your toilet or
laundry soap Is made from their
grease; the curled hair in your chair
and tho bristles in your shoe brush nre
from their tails. AS for the steer, again,
your combs are made from his horns;
your toothbrush handle and the mouth
piece of your pipe were once part OF
his thigh bone: your knife handle
comes from his shin bone: the buttons
on your coat and your wlfe's hairpins
are from his hoofs; nentsfoot oil repre-
sents his sinews. and the prepared
food you throw to your chickens is re-
duced from his blood; also the pepsin
you buy ut the druggists is made from
a pigs stomach; the grease extracted
from the wool of sheep after slaughter
is converted into potash.

According TO n paragraph In Knowl-

which iron can he made to grow"
Tho process IL said to;consIst In several
times hentlng the iron to certain
critical temperature and cooling 1t be-
tween times, whereby the astonishing
result Is obtained Of increasing the iron
to nearly half no large again. 1t Is re-
ported TINT two identical castings were
made and one reserved for comparison.
while the other was subjected to this
new treatment. One side Of each was
mnchined and polished. so that exnml-
nation OF the grain and structure might
be mnde but little difference could be
dlscerned except In point Of size, which
was very mnrked. The weight Of the
swelled casting WINS Identical with that
OF the one with which 1t was compared,
but In all other respects the metal MP
peared TO be of similar character. After
this ono liz not surprised to learn that
important practical applications hnve
already been found for the remarkable
discovery. Indeed, new uses suggest
themselves instantly to the mind. The
story Is so extraordinary. however,

USES OF ELECTRICITY.
Many Novel Labor Saving Devices
For household Work.

The increased use of electricity In
every branch of Industry is surprising
even to the most ardent advocates OF
this mysterious form of energy. Not
only Inns electricity Invaded the terri.
tories occupied by all other forms OF
energy. but 1t has actually created new
fields of its own. This Is particularly
marked by the present electrical invn-
sion of our homes. where labor saving
devices were never thought of until
electricity showed its wonderful ndapt-
ability to all classes of work.
Electric light had scarcely ceased to
be II novelty when tie electric fan was
introduced and then the sewing ma
chine motor. In the pnst few years
more attention has been paid to cleo

COLOR AND HEALTH.
Influence of Certain Rays Of Light
ON Various Diseases.


ON Various DiscnseH.
How far the use of color may affect
the public health or even net us cure
for particulnr diseases Is once more
receiving the attention OF certain sec
tlons of the medical profession.
In n medical journal 1t was recently
contended that certain colors have q
favorable effect upon sufferers from
phthisia, and 1t was recommended that
consumptives should carefully select
their clothing with view of employ
ing only those colors that are inimlcal
to the disense. The theory Is that GER
tain rays Of light have bncterlcidnl
effect nnd therefore the clothing should
access to the beneficial rays.
Obviously this theory Is no new one,
for 1T Is the basis Oh which the late
DR.. Finsen reared his memorable Eight
cure" for lupus and similar diseases.
Flnscn himself was led TO his conclu-
sions by the practice Of medical men
who employed various colors In the
cure Of disease long before the modern
germ theory had been evolved

Dear Sir: It's an old saying; the best
advertisement is pleased customer.
1t happens to US continually in this
way: A man buys Devoe for his house
he has painted it once in three years
for dog sage, and thinks he knows
what he wants-buys 30 gallons, and
has 10 left.
He sees right-off that 20 Devoe is as
much as 30 of anything else. He likes
that; it comes quick; it is a surprise;
and he tells of it. The best advertise
ment is pleased customer.
Three years roll round. There isn't
sign that his house needs paint; he
don't paint it, Next year he don't
paint it, This comes slow; it is sur
prise; but he has got used to it. Still
the best advertisement is a pleased
customer. Yours truly,

u s GuilfOrd Duncan sat late that
IA night recalling the events of
Y the evening he felt himself
a n more and more nearly sat
isfied with the outcome of his wooing.
1t was true, of course, that Barbara
had not promised TO become his wife,
as he had hoped that she might do, but
at any rate she had confessed her love
for him in a way that left nothing to
conjecture.
Moreover. as he reflected upon the
compact, he saw how certainly the
close and intimate friendship for which
it provided must daily and hourly draw
the two lovers closer and closer togeth-
err making each of them more and
more necessary to the other.
As he realized the extent of his sue
cess In his wooing he planned to per
feet 1t in a hundred ways. He resolv-
ed to make every possible opportunity
for Barbara to help him, in order that
she might learn how helpful she could
be. He determined TO acquaint her
with all his affairs in the utmost de
tail, in order that she might make her
self more and more part of his life.
Il will be as frank with her." he re-
solved, "as If she were already my
wife She shall share my sorrows as
well as my joys. And what comfort
her sympathy will be"
He slept little that night, yet on the
morrow be went to his work with a
buoyancy of spirit such as he had not
known since that evening when he had
