A Voice From
The Stomach
A Bloodless Fight Between Tablet
and a Hahit-The Tablet Wins.

At the age of q, Clarence had good
digestion. He had gastric juice that could
dissolve doughnuts and turn apple-Skins
into good blood corpuscles.
At the age of "a he began to be pro-
fuse about the waist and lean backwards
He also began to cultivate several chins.
In his new-found pride he began to think
it his duty to gorge himself on every
thing the good and the bad, for appe-
tite feeds on appetite-and every good
thing is abused.
His pictures showed that he took on
weight after he put his collar on.
At the age of 26 Clarence married and
went TO boarding. On top of all this,
he attended oyster suppers and wine din
ners, which reduced the size of his col
lar from 1872 to 10. With still abiding
faith in the strength of his stomach he
gulped his meals and chewed them after
wards.

He began to be a light eater-and a

Lion House History.
The Lion house was built in 1854, the
same year in which the Salt Lake tho
atre was completed. 1t was designed
and planned by Brigham Young, but

Above are domestic science stu
dents at work in the new cooking
school established in portion Of the
linn house, which once sheltered
several of the wives of Brigham
younq. An exterior view of the
building is seen at the right.
The Lion house, one of the most his
toric buildings of the city, has recently
been modernized and its upper floor,
totally unsuitable as it Nas for any
practical purpose, remodelcd TO make
am up-to-date domestic science school
The picturesque gabled windows which
have been the admiration of thousands
of tourists, still remain, but instead of
defining the various tiny rooms preVi-
ouslv lighted by means of them, they
now open on spacious chambers from
which the partitions have been removed
and which have been entirely trans
formed.
This change has been completed with
in the past few months; and it is due
entirely To the efforts Of the Daughters
of the Utah Pioneers. whose president,
Mrs. Susie Young Gates, spent her
childhood in the historic old house. The
change grew out of the desire to con-
serve all the relics possible. the house
itself being regarded as one of the
choice relics of the early days of Utah.
Hall of Relics.
Within the past two years the society
has established a hall of relics, locating
il in the Lion house, and with this start
it was proposed to put the house in
such shane as would best preserve it
historically without any remOdeling
calculated TO change its appearance. By
remodeling the upper floor and replac-
ing any WORKOUT portions the place has
been given a new lease of life. and at
The same time much needed space has
been provided for a department which
the same women have fostered from its
inception, the domestic class.
The six rooms occupying the front of
the building have been made into one,
this being large enough to make an adj
mirable dining room or a small dance
han. Immediately back of this on
either side are long rooms made by
putting three of the smaller rooms into
one. while the rear end has been
changed into spacious, kitchen, fitted
for a class of thirty-six girls TO study
the household arts and sciences.

The main floor, where is now to be
found the hall of relics of the pioneers,
contained the living rooms and sleep
ing rooms for several of the wives of
the church president. Above on the
floor which has just been remodeled
were twenty small bed rooms, each
containing one gabled window, with
one long hall running the full length
of the building.
The wood used in the doors and win
dOws was all native wood, and it was
grained and painted by local workmen.
The painting on the main floor has new
er been renewed, and is today in re-
markably good state of preservation.
For the past six years the building has
been a part of the L. d. S. u, but the
small rooms of the top floor had been
rented to persons not connected with
the school.

BLACK LEAD PENCILS.
Some Unfamiliar Facts About a Very
Familiar object.

1t is difficult to determine the exact
period in which black lead" was first
utilized as an instrument for writing or
drawing, as it has been confused with
other mineral bodies to which it bears
no relation, says the Scientific Amer
lean. The ancients used lead. but the
metal was formed into fiat plates, and
the edges of these plates used to make
the mark. If an ornamental design was
desired the transcriber drew parallel
lines and traced their illuminated de-
signs, usually with a hard point but
also with soft lead That lead was
known to the ancients is also proven
by the fact that it is mentioned in the
book of Job.
During the year 1916 there was a de-
scription of the black lead pencil writ
ten by Conrad Gesner. He says that
pieces of plumbago were fastened in a
wooden handle and mixture of fossil
substances, sometimes covered with
wood, was used for writing and draw
ing. About half century later a very
good account of this mineral was given,
and it was then used in Italy for draw
ing and mixed with clay for manufac-
turing crucibIes
We are informed in Beekman's His
tory of Inventions" that the pencils first
used in Italy for drawing were COM

nothing more than pewter This pencil
was called a stile. Michael Angelo men
lions this stile, and, in fact it seems
that such pencils were long used in
common over the whole continent of
Europe. AT this period the name plum
bago or graphite was not in use. but
instead the name molybdena or molyb-
doids, which is now applied to an en-
tirely different mineral.
Graphite or black lead is formed in
the primary rocks. In the United States
it occurs in felspar and quartz, in
Great Britain in greensboro rock and
gneiss and in Norway in quartz. The
mine at BOrrOwdale. England, has sup
piled some of the finest black lead in
the world, but the quantity varies, ow-
ing to the irregularity with which the
mineral occurs.
The Jews were for a while the only
manufacturers of pencils. 1T required
great skill to perfect the manufacture
according 20 the degree of hardness or
sOftneSs required. OF recent years the
manufacture of pencils has increased to
such an extent that the price of these
articles has decreased proportionately
Graphite and pure clay are combined
and used in the manufacture of arti-
fetal lead pencils, and on the other
hand the greatest perfection is attained
In the making of the higher class pencil
Graphite is exposed to heat to acquire
firmness and brilliancy of color. Sui
phur is also used to secure more per-
feet color
