bars in an ordinary box, the top was
made IN a round form with a piece OF
sewer pipe put in for the base of the
stove pipe, the hole In the top was
made by setting a tin pan, bottom of
which was covered with oiled paper,
right in the form. The body of the
stove was made by setting small
barrel inside a large one and filling
the space between the two with con-
crete, the door being blocked out in
the barrel, hinges set in while the
concrete was wet. The whole stove,
says Popular Mechanics, was reinforc-
ed with "lock-woven steel fabric at
a cost of about one-sixth of what an
ordinary iron stove would be.

Trust "Graft,"

One of the practices of the trusts in
the marketing of their products, is
the prize schemes. In order to induce
the consumers to use their various
brands of goods, attractive offers are
made to exchange different articles
for certificates and coupons. But it
Is always intended that the consum-
ers pay the freight" Generally
where premiums are offered with
goods, the packages are short in
weight, or a few cents more charged
than goods of like kind sell for. Thus
1t can be seen how the premiums
given are paid for by the consumer,
and he pays high price for the
prizes he draws. Goods that are
given away with purchases cost
money. Their cost does not come out
Of the pockets of the. manufacturers,
but out Of the purses of the people
who use the goods. If one desires to
buy sugar, he does not care to pay
for the scoop or shovel. He wants
sugar, and at the lowest price con-
sistent. He knows that if he takes
the scoop or the shovel some one
pays the bill. Various systems of
premium giving have been devised.
Some call for certain number Of
coupons of some sort, and so much
cash, or some article just for the
coupons alone. Where cash is re-.
quired along with coupons there is
apparently an additional profit in the
deal aside from that made on the
goods with which coupons are given.
1t is well to buy goods on their merits
alone. Buy what you want and at
the right price, and you will be ahead
of the premium plan.

Bridal Souvenirs.

Among the newest and prettiest
souvenirs for the bride to present her
maids is small brooch of enamel
that looks exactly like bunch Of au-
tumn leaves. On one of the leaves a
tiny diamond that looks like drop CT
dew is set; the enamel gives the rich
coloring of the gold and russell and
crimson of fall foliage. The little
brooch costs about $12 and is very
new.
Another is charming little bangle
heart-shaped locket in gold, left
quite plain for the date of the wedding
and a place inside for the brides pic
ture. These are also intended as
souvenirs from the bride to her maids.

Hail Not Dissipated by Guns.


For several years past, in some of
the vine-growing districts of France
and Italy, persistent attempts have
been made to dissipate gathering hail
storms by the systematic firing of
guns at the clouds. Many vine-grow-
ers believe that the method is ehfec-
tive, as their vineyards have escaped
threatened hail-storms when the guns
were fired. A recent report by DR..
Blaserna of the results of a long
series of experiments, under scientific
control, shows that the supposed ef-
fects of gun-firing are illusory, and
that hail cannot be dissipated by fir
ing in the air any more than rain can
be induced by similar method.

According to cooking school
theory cocoa is never done until it has
cooked long enough to coat the spoon.
It is boiled, of course, in water, the
scalding milk being added just before
serving. 1t is said the cocoa should
boil from half an hour to an hour
Persons who have found cocoa indi-
gestible often find it harmless when
it is thoroughly cooked. Undertook
