BOWLING BALLS.
The Process of Making Their, Necessl.
tates Slow Work.


tates Slow Work.
A bowling ball looks as if it were
easy to make. yet its manufacture in
wolves a long process covering a period
of three days. The actual time put upon
1t is only matter of three hours, but
the work is slow and requires long
waits between each step toward compile
ton. A log free from knots and cracks
is first cut into pieces a trifle larger
than the diameter of the ball after 1t is
finished. This allows for two little
projections on either side called bits"
where the clamps of the lathe hold the
block of wood while revolvinaalt light
ming speed under the keen edged tool
cutting into the hard fiber like a sharp
knife slicing fresh cheese.
This preliminary turning and trim
ming occupy only few minutes,
when the block is shaved and pared
down to the required size. The bits
then are cut off and the whole thing
sandpapered A coat of shellac is APP
piled. and the ball Is put one side to
dry. 1t then gets another sandpaper-
ing. This is no sooner done than the
workman again carefully applies the
shellac brush. When the shellac dries
the second time, the surface is rubbed
with oil. The work doesn't stop then.
for the moment the oil has dried the
ball gets another vigorous sandpaper-
ing. Then for the last time it gets
more shellac. When thoroughly dry
the sphere is ready for the two holes
to be cut for the bowler's thumb and
index finger. The last stage of the labo
rious process is the polishing. which
gives the ball the appearance it has
when it reposes on the rack waiting to
be sent crashing down the alley.
Sometimes there is considerable
waste in cutting up the logs because of
cracks and assures in the wood. On
this account an ordinary sized log may
yield only one block sound enough to
put on the turning lathe. while it ought
to make six or seven. The life of the
average bowling ball is about two
years. The best balls cost S. or Sc.
while the cheapest scale down near the
dollar mark.

SAVED BY HIS TEETH.
Quick Wit of Missionary Among
Tribe of Cannibas.

Missionaries have much to contend
with in dealing with the tribes on
some of the islands of the southern
Pacific, and | am reminded of an In
cident happening on a remote island
of the Fiji group whose tribes were
still influenced by the savagery of
cannibalism. A German missionary
the enlightenment of a tribe of saw
ages in the interior when he was TAX
en- Ill and forced to abandon his work
and seek recuperation in village
along the coast.
During his absence native medicine
man succeeded in undoing all that the
good German father had accomplished.
The latter was warned that under the
circumstances it would be unsafe for
him to return to the scene of his la
bors upon his recovery, but he decid-
ed that his duty called him there. and
upon regaining his strength he jour-
neyed inland to the village whose in
habitants had gone over to the teach
ings of the medicine man.
His reception was decidedly a warm
one, and he was informed that unless
he made a practical demonstration of
the superiority of his teachings over
those of the medicine man he would
be converted in short order into food
for the hungry tribesmen. He at once
realized that his life hung upon
slender thread and endeavored to show
to the savages by argument that their
conclusions as to his edible qualities
were entirely erroneous and that they
should turn their thoughts to other
kinds of food as well as to higher sub
jects.
His efforts were in vain, however
and just as he was about to be struck
down by the uplifted clubs of the chief
men in the tribe he happily bethought
himself of the fact that his upper teeth
were false. Opening his mouth, he
hastily extracted his set, fiourished it
in the faces of his astounded oppo-
nents, and particularly the features of
the medicine man, and, replacing the
teeth as suddenly as he had extracted
them, rebuked his charges in a man
ner which can better be imagined than
described. The tribe, believing that
he had performed a miracle in taking
out and replacing his own teeth, drove
the medicine man from the village and
restored the missionary to his former
place as uplifter of their material and
spiritual destinies. Washington Star.

The Reason Camp Meeting John Allen
Got Maine Central Pass.
Camp Meeting John Allen was one
Of the most picturesque characters of
his time in Maine. Apropos of railroad
passes a very interesting story is told.
1t occurred when Governor Morrill,
was president of the Maine Central.
Aliens applications were refused a
number of times, because if there was
one thing above all others which Nor
rill dislilled it was to issue passes. The
governor came down to his Office in a
somewhat brusque frame of mind that
day. Those familiar with the storm
signals quietly backed off and waited
for an explosion. 1t came. One Of the
first letters opened was from Camp
Meeting John Allen requesting a pass
for "self and wife" The secretary
approached his chief with some hesita-
ton
"Here is another letter from Mr.. AL
len asking for pass" he said and laid
the missive gingerly on the governors
desk.
The governor read it through and
blazed away for few minutes; then,
tossing the letter to the astonished
secretary, he said. MAKE it out"
The young man retired and began to
fill in the various blank lines, but when
he came ON what account" the pass
was issued he was puzzled and ven-
tured to seek information.
ION what account. governorw he
asked.
The chief looked irately over his
spectacles.

1t was while he was riding down
Little Bear trail that Beany Hendrix
saw her. She was riding up the trail,
and they met at the narrowest point,
where the steep walls of the canyon
shut out the sunlight, leaving a gloomy
tunnel through which there was bare
ly room for two riders to pass. Hen
dirk backed his cayuse against the
rocky wall and tried to shrink his
huge form into smaller compass.
She, Edith Van Tine. looked at him
from the level Of grave, gray eyes
questioningly. She bowed politely and
then smiled. All women smiled when
they met Hendricks genial gaze. They
smiled in approval of the warm kind
liness of his good looking face, at the
strength of his great body and at the
good heart shining through his honest
brown eyes.
Miss Van Tines smile faded, how
ever, as she saw the narrow trail that
became almost footpath as it wound
up the canyon, and her cheek paled.
In spite of this formidable outlook she
urged her horse forward, bravely de-
termined not to reveal her cowardice
to this big COW puncher, who sat, hat
in hand, waiting for her to pass

''Not in the least, thank you," she re-
piled crisply.

soberly, that if you're stranger in
these parts this is nasty bit of coun-
try for lady to get about in alone"
THANK YOU" she repeated, still
more coldly, 'but Twas only resting
my horse"
Hendrix looked curiously solemn; in
deed, his features assumed a rigid ex-
preston. One who knew might have
said that Hendrix was suppressing
smile. He threw one leg over the
pommel of his saddle, thus permitting
his cayuse to hug the wall more close
ly, and looked amiably upon the pref
ty stranger. Pretty girls We're rare in

She flushed under his frank, admir-

her horses flank with angry impa-
tience. The animal bounded forward,
striking fire with his scattered hoofs.
There was faint cry from the girl
