paddles. To make the frame, several
lengths of scantling three inches wide
by one inch thick preferably of hard
woody are required. Cut two of them
four feet long, to form the main sup
ports of the frame. AA, Fig. 1; an
other, two feet six inches long, for the
top, B, Fig. /; another, rs inches
long, to form the slanting part, c,
Fig. 1 and another, D, approximately
one foot, according to the slant given
c. After mailing these together as
shown in the illustration, nail two
short strips on each side of the out
let, as at E, to keep the frame from
spreading.
Cut two pieces 80 inches long. Lay
these on the sides of the frame with
their center lines along the line FF.
which is Is inches from the outside
top of the frame. They are shown
in Fig. as GG. Do not fasten these
boards now, but mark their position

in diameter. This can be done
roughly with hammer and chisel and
then smoothed up on an emery wheel,

as shown in Fig. 4. Then cut them
into the shape shown in Fig. and
bend the tapered end in along the
lines j, after which place them in the
slots of the wheel and bend the sides
over to clamp the wheel. Drill one
eighth-inch holes through the wheel

paddles in place. Next secure five
eighth-inch steel shaft IL inches long

Chinese Jews,

American interest in China since
the Boxer rebellion has extended to
the Chinese Jews, who settled at
Kaifungfu during the Han dynasty,
that ruled China from 200 B. C. to 200
A. D. The Kaifungfu colony is men
toned occasionally by European trav-
elers, among them Marco Polo in the
fourteenth century, while in 1900 and
1904 they were visited by Jesuit mis-
sionaries. To-day, according to AL
fred X. Glover, writing in the Over
land Monthly for May, the Chinese
Jews are almost extinct, but their rec
ords and historical tablets are care
fully preserved.

Criticism Of legislators.

Lessons in pronunciation are need
ed by a number of members of the
house. The majority of those who
tackle the word "victuallers" insist on
pronouncing it phonetically instead
as If spelled "vittlers," and the word
municipal is another great stumbling
block, members almost invariably put
ting the accent on the wrong syllable.
