as favoring the square bale. which is pre-
forred by the great majority of spinners.

Yet in a period of Is months the
balance wheel turns on its axis 49,.
996,S00.000 times.
Expert watchmakers say that a
watch should be thoroughly cleaned
and oiled every lS months. Many
persons wear watch for years,
winding it up each night, and never
oil it.
Watches are instruments OF un-
certain age; some run indefinitely !;
keeping accurate time, without need
of repairs. As matter of fact,
nothing is so neglected as this small,
delicate and useful instrument.

NEW AND POWERFUL DRUG
Adrenalln Is Costly, but WIN Be OF
the Greatest Value to Both
Physicians and Surgeons.

One of the newest and most ex-
pensive drugs on earth is that known
Las adrenalin, says the London
Standard. Those who are not ply
sicians will be first interested in
learning that adrenalip costs $1,000
a pound.
Adrenalin is the most powerful
astringent, hemostatc and heart
tonic known. Adrenalin Fuckers up
the walls of the smaller blood ves-
sells so that the blood can flow from
them even if thicr ends are sew
cred. Since this costly drug closes
and contracts the arteries, even
when they are cut by the surgeons
knife, it is valuable in all forms of
hemorrhage.
But it has another great and inn
portant use. Experiments have
proved that it is powerful heart
stimulant. 1t will revive heart
that is being killed by chloroform.
Chloroform, though quick in its ac-
ton, is dangerous, but must often be
used, when every moment is val
liable.
SO, if chloroform is necessary, ii
is of great value to know that adj
renalin can be injected into vein
and prevent such heart failure as an
overdose of chlorororm often causes.
This action of adrcnaIin+ has been
proved by many experiments.

Of fish. They report that the rise in
the river caused its water to get so
muddy that thc-tsh were forced to
the top in order TO get air as the
water was too impure TO allow them
to breathe sufficiently The negroes
report that they took sacks, nets and
in some instances used merely their
hands to scoop the fish out onto the
banks Of the stream.-San Antonio

Worth While.

Hold on, hope hard in the subtle
things. That's spirit.
a worthy life is impossible
without a worthy motive.
The virtue of man is measured
by his everyday conduct.
Skill and assurance are an in
vincible couple. Dutch Proverb.
He who realizes his own weak
ness thereby adds to his strength.
Keep yours fears TO yourself,
but share your courage with others.
Only love can keep out bitter
ness; love is stronger than the
worlds unkindness.
Beautiful is the activity that
work for good and the stiffness
that waits for good.
The secret of success lies in the
man and not in the material he
works on-Bradford.
True wisdom is to know what is
best worth knowing, and to do
what is best worth doing.
There is nothing SO easy but
that it becomes difficult when you
do it with reluctance. Terence.
Christianity was carried round
the world on n bayonet point;
alcohol followed it under the FLAG. i.
Nothing can bring you peace
but yourself; nothing can bring
you peace but the triumph of
principles.
Toll, feel, thing. hope; you will
be sure to dream enough before
you die without arranging for it. -
j. Sterling.
One of the most grievCus mis-
takes people make is in believing
that energy of mind betokens
physical efficiency.
You must make it quite clear to
your own mind which you are
most bent upon, popularity or USE
fulness else you may happen to
miss both.
Man does what he can, and bears
what he must, and the name by
which he calls the result is left to
each to decide; a clever man calls
it happiness.
1T is worth while 10 do even the
smallest kindness as we go along
the way. Nothing is lost. No
dewdrop perishes, but, sinking
into the flower, makes it sweeter.
