The DANGEROUS Aqe.

If a man is going to commit a crime
during his lifetime the chances are
that he will do it at the age of twenty
nine. 1t is a curious fact that statis-
tics have shown that man is more dam
gerous at this period of his life than
at any other. The majority Of crimi-
nails in the state Of New York have for
some time been of this age. The gen.
eral superstition is that men have at
tanned the highest development of their
mental and physical powers at twenty
nine, and they are supposed to be able
to distinguish between right and
wrong and to realize the consequences
liable to follow the indulgence OF Ell
Their. Next to the age Of Twenty-Five
the greatest number Of criminals have
been twenty-ohe. twenty-seven or for
ty-flve years of age. The intervening
years, in which men do not commit
as many crimes, have not been explain
ed by expert criminologists who have
made investigations proving the above
statements to be true and who are still
working on a solution of the problem.

HOSTING DEVICES.
Machinery That Was Used In Building
the Pyramids.

Hosting machines were used in both
Assyria and Egypt 5000 or more years
ago. In order to hoist the great
stones of the pyramids some form Of
derrick was employed. Probably the
first construction was that which is
now known to mechanics as the shear
legs. This is made of two great tim
bers tied together in the form of q
capital A, the two ends resting on the
ground and rope being run over and
attached at the top.
With one of these the pyramid build
ers could have raised large stones step
by step, which was doubtless their
method. We can imagine we see the
great A frame leaning over an incline
of perhaps fifty degrees with a block
of stone tied on. Then a great crowd
of men get hold of the rope on the
opposite side, perhaps assisted by some
draft oxen, and all strain and pull until
the A frame stands erect and the stone
is swung up into the air. where 1t can
be pushed into the desired place.
Such a contrivance could be used to
lift stones six or eight feet, which was
sufficient for the construction of the
first pyramid. Doubtless better hoist
ing devices were constructed as more
pyramids were built.-Circle Magazine.

carbon is the only one that we re-
quire in large quantity. An individual
Of $50 pounds should contain thirty
four pounds of carbon In his makeup.
The food must supply this carbon. and

In meats the protein is the chemical

NAMES OF FLOWERS.
Where Some of Them Come From and
What They Mean.

Wnat ! hey medus
1t is interesting to know how certain
flowers received their names. Many
were named after people. For in
stance, the fuchsias were so called be-
cause they were discovered by Leon
ard Fuchs. Dahlias were named for
Andre Dahl, who first brought them
from Peru. The camellia received its
name from a missionary named ka-
mel, who carried specimens of this
flower from Japan to France. The
magnolia was named in honor of Mag
mol de Montpelier. Other flower names
are descriptive Lady's slipper resem-
bles a tiny slipper. The blossoms of
Iady's tresses are twisted like braid
of hair The flowers of the foxglove
are like the fingers of glove. The
name foxglove is said to be corrup-
ton of folks glove" or "fairy's glove"
Aster means star and received its name
from the starlike rays of this flower
Daisy is really days eye" Dandelion
means lions tooth. Do you think the
name is appropriate for this notched,
rather jagged flower?
Anemone means wind flower" The
anemone is so delicately poised that it
trembles in the slightest breeze.

SO much as a baggy pair Of trousers.

Ain ODD JOURNEY.
Moving a $50 Ton Lightship Across
Hills and Woodland.

Hills and Woodland.
What was probably the most re-
markable journey ever undertaken by
ship in this country was that Of a
vessel overland, in which she went
through extensive forests, climbed
steep hills and moved along highways.
The craft was one of the largest light
ships in the government service and
was stationed of one Of the smaller
harbors on the coast Of Oregon. At
this point bay makes an indentation
into the land SO that a peninsula of
considerable length is formed In a
gale the lightship dragged her an
chors, finally broke from her moorings
and was thrown up on the shore SO
far that it was found impossible to
float her again at this point. The ac-
cident occurred on one side of the pen
insula referred to, which is partly
formed by the waters of Bakers bay.
After planning how to save the YES
sci 1t was decided by the lightship
crew that the only way to again place
her In her native element was to haul
the ship, If possible, along the PENN
sula to another beach where the water
within a few feet from shore. The
route lay through a rough country,
including several hills as well as wood
land. The lightship weighed more than
$50 tons and was more than 80 feet
in length. so that apparatus of consid-
cradle power had to be utilized to lift
her upon the rollers along which she
was to be moved The only power
employed was that of men and horses.
The horses were attached to a wind
lass and with its help managed to lift
the vessel upon the big rollers which
were placed under her keel Then the
journey over the peninsula began, the
windlass being used to aid the animals
in pulling. In advance went squad
of men who cut away the underbrush
and small trees. filed up holes and
which the lightship journeyed.
Such was the difficulty of the task,
however, that several weeks elapsed
before the peninsula was crossed, in
that time the vessel having travelled
more than a mile. Reaching the end
OF the journey. the next question was
how to launch her. This was finally
by building ways Of tim
Der reaching from the shore into deep
water. The craft was dragged upon
the ways by means of the windlass, ]
then cables were extended from her to
a large tree on a point of land near
the ways, and the ship was pulled into J
the water.-Atnerican Inventor.
