Fishing Lines

sikworm gut forms the best line for
fishing purposes, partly on account of its
great tenacity and partly because 1t is so
transparent. Every year sufficient num-
ber of Spanish silkworm grubs are select
ed for this purpose. After they have eaten
enough mulberry leaves and before they
begin to spin they are thrown into vine
gar for several hours. Each insect is kill
ed and the substance which the grub in
the natural course would have spun INTO
a cocoon Is forcibly drawn from the dead
worm into a much thicker and shorter
silken thread.
The threads are then placed in pure
waited dipped for ten minutes In solu-
tione OF soft soap. The fine outer skin Is
thus ioosened so that the workman can
remove Il with his hands. The threads
must be dried In a shady place and are
often bleached with sulphur vapor until
they acquire the bright appearance of
spun glass--London Telegraph.

HOUR GLASSES FIRST
USED AT CHESS GAMES

Hourglasses, or sandglasses, were for
merly used for the purpose OF measuring
time at chess matches, but now specially
constructed clocks are in general use for
this purpose. These clocks consist of two
clocks mounted on a common base, which
moves on pivot, the two clocks therefore
being on the arms OF sort Of secsaw.
The beam, or base, is SO constructed that
when one clock is elevated 1t stands per-
fectly perpendicular, while the depi ossed
clock lies over at an agile. but IS the me-
chanism OF each clock Is so constructed
that IL only moves when the clock is PER
fectly perpendicular II follows that whine
the upright clock is going the depressed
clock is at rest.
Another and more modern variety has
the two clocks fixed on the same level,
but with a small brass arm reaching crom
the top of one to the top of the other
This arm acts on pivot and can be
brought down into actual contact with
one clock at a time thus i'm contact by an
ingenious device the clock is stopped and
the desired result is attained. The work.
ing of the clock during match is simpli-
city itself At the commencement of the
match the hands OF each clock point TO Il.
] hen at the Call of 'time to commence
play the clock of the first player is start
ed: then as soon as he makes his first
move he stops his own clock either by
depressing IL or by touching the ann re-
ferred to the same motion starting mis- op-
ponents clock. So IL goes on during the
entire course OF the game each move be-
ing marked by the stopping of one clock
and the starting of the other.

"OLD MAID" MEANT
LIBERTY TO HER

Call me an old maid il you like" said

right to do so. l do as / wish with my
money because / earn II, and l do not
have to account to anyone for the way
use IL. In fact, / see very few married
women whom envy"
To be sure. this is only one girls way
of looking at the situation and should
not be considered the general opinion OF
the present-day business woman. There
are women in the world of commerce who,
If the truth were known, are not there
from choice. but rather from the force of
circumstances. which compels them to
earn their own livelihood.
Some one asks. (Which will make the
better wife, the girl who remains at home
and has become a trained housekeeper, or
the woman who earns her living In the
world of commerce. in the office or at the
loom?"
/ don't believe Industrial training will
detract from a womans housekeeping
qualities; on the contrary. IL should make
her better wife. for IL will teach her the
value of money and give her better in
sight in handling the finances of the home.
She will be able TO apply her business
methods to domestic economy, and will
manage the home on a paying basis be-
cause she will save money.
A business career generally broadens a
woman's ideas, and the broader outlook
she has acquired so much the better wife
and mother she will make. MOLLIE.

THE GOOD OLD DAYS

Take me back to Peaceful Valley
To the good old "handset" day.
When we juggled with the galley,
In the COED old-fashioned way,
Where the editor and devil
Swappcd tobacco to and fro,
And they all were on level,
And were comrades, don't you know.
All your high-faultin' presses.
And your linotypes and such,
And your new attractive dresses"
Don't amount to very ouch
To a feller educated
Mid the romance OF a day
When the paper was created
In the good old "handset' way.
When nghtin' man meandered
In TO clean up on the shop,
Maxim claims that he'd been slandered
And we never called a cop;
When the boys would all unlimber
Mallet wrench and shootin stick,
And would chase him to the timber
At a pace that made him sick.
When we always had column
or obituary stun.
That was full of rhyme so solemn
IL was plenty good enough,
For each old delinquent brother
AS he saw flt for to die,
No use settin' up another.
SO we used the old standby.
when the extra" quick edition.
Was a thing we never knew,
Under any old condition.
And the heads were mighty rev,
With no hurry and no hustle,
Till IL came TO Friday night,
When we'd all turn In and hustle,
Some to get the sheet out right.
What wealth OF young ambition.
When we got our first real place,
A most glorihed position
