Trying half to death to scare us
With n coming hard times song,
Telling us about the panic

Which will when we are not looking
Land serenely on our neck,
Though the wheels ma be revolving
At a high and naughty speed
And the mill men may be getting
All the orders that they need,
Still the croaker comes a-croakin1.

That before the year Is over
Everything will go to smash.

Quite distinctly he can see,
And they every one spell panic
Just AS plain as A b c..
Every fellow may be eating

But that doesn't serve to soften
Down the prophet OF dismay.

1T rarely falls to the lot of a ma t

last time he was on the other side of
the Atlantic he said to me:
"'Mr. Stead, l want you to come
over to America and take part In the
dedication Of the Carnegie institute at
P1ttsburg. I've asked about forty or
fifty other people. all Of them well
known in the various activities Of life,

is the biggest thing I've done yet. I've
spent over 100000 on 1t. When you
come. bring your wife or your daugh-
ter or both Of them with you. l want
you to 60 where you please. to see
what you please. and from the time
you cross your doorstep until you re-
cross It again 1t won't cost you a cent
Il accepted the invitation for myself
and wife. \ short time ago l received
a communication from one Of the Off
Gals of the Carnegie institute. 1t In
closed an order for such passage tickets
as l needed to America, good on any of
the eight best lines. The order also
called for return tickets on any Of the
same eight lines. 1t informed me that
during my stay we would be Mr.. Car

that our host had made arrangements
with the treasury department to have
all the baggage Of his guests on this

Device That Increases Capacity OF

Device That Increases Capacity Of
Cutting About so Per Cent.
Mill men OF the south are much in
terested in an invention of !. H. Hod-
gen of Bay Minette, Ala.
The invention Is a saw mill device,
and 1t Is in successful operation in a
mill at Fillmore. Escambia county. 1t
consists Of an appliance for rigging
any sawmill' using ordinary circular
saws SO as to cut both ways with the
same saw. There is a truck over the
carriage wheels on the side sent to
the saw to prevent the carriage being
lifted on the back cut. Second, a top
block, adjustable, to prevent the rails
Ing of the log on the back cut. This
block Is adjustable almost instantane-
ously by ranging from an inch board
to the largest sized log. Third, a blow
er located over the saw, which catches
and conveys to the slop pit all saw
dust resulting from the back cut.
Fourth. live rollers for conveying ma.
terial on the back cut, same as in
double cutting hand saws. Fifth, a
guide is used for the saw back for the
front and tail.
The estimated additional expense of
rigging any mill with this appliance
will he from 5 to 10 per cent, while the
Increase Of cutting capacity, when
properly managed, Is from so to IS
per cent.
