VENEERED WOOD.
It's Advantages Over Solid Lumber
For Furniture.

If the art of veneering were not the
extensive art it is today, it would be
impossible for any but the col.para-
lively few who have a good supply of
the almighty dollar to possess any fine
articles of furniture at all. Neneering
is not a new art, but the earliest
American cabinetmakers, although
using it to some extent, preferred as
a rule the solid wood furniture
Today hardwood trees, such as the
oak, walnut and ash, have been made
more valuable by the invention of We
neering machinery which will enable
the logs to be sliced up into layers of
uniform thickness of less than one
twentieth of an inch. In the old days
this process was all by hand and was
slow and arduous undertaking.
The advantages of veneered wood
are that it will not crack, swell nor
warp in the changes from hot to cold
weather. and in the case of doors, for
instance, it makes them lighter and
more easily handled.
For our finest pieces of furniture
the bo1t of oak, walnut or ash is
used, and it may be seen how much
one of these trees is worth. Cut into
thin slices, it will give hundreds Of
feet Of veneer. A large walnut tree,
for instance, will be made into a large
amount of veneer and is sought by ex-
pert woodsmen. Found in the heart
of the woods or on some lonely farm,
it is bought by the agent working
for the interests of veneering COM
pany, and ten times as much is paid
for it to its owner as would be for
ordinary lumber.
The process includes the cutting and
trimming of the tree, saving into logs
of convenient lengths and then the
cooking of these logs. They are boiled
until soft and pliable in a vat of hot
water or steam. They are then sent
to the veneering machines, where they
are sliced or sawed into pieces from
one-tenth to one-thirtieth Of an inch
in thickness, of absolutely the same
thickness all over. Their soft, pliable
condition prevents them from crack
ing or breaking.
The cabinet workers then apply
these slices to the articles of furni-
ture, gluing them on with the grain
running in opposite directions and with
no Jennings visible Instead Of max
ing a weaker article the surface is
really toughened and hardened by this
crossgrain work, and it may also be
polished to a higher luster than the
solid wood.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Then we fake each berry to the
thinness of paper, and toast 1t at 400
degrees.
That long process, and that fierce
heat, separates the particles so the
digestive juices can get to them.
You get twice the food value from
Mapl-Flake that you get from COM
mon faxed foods.
Then no part of the food is left
to ferment-to irritate the stomach
lining.
Other methods are cheaper. We
could make a faxed food in one
fourth of the time. But would you
not rather have food right-have
it all digest?

We are told that the ,oung Spartans
were taught to steal by the authori-
ties for the purpose, presumably, of
making them good foragers in war
time. In Egypt professional thieves
gave in their names to the chief of the
robbers and agreed that he should be
informed of everything they might
steal. The owner of lost goods ap-
piled to the chief for their recovery
and on payment Of one-quarter of their
value they were restored in full The

Wheat produces the maximum of
