In speaking Of the value of dur

writing to "a friend in regard to

of the largest Glasgow, Scotland,

a small batch of pan loaves, solely

machine to work at it, letting il
mix away for thirty minutes at
least, three times as long as is
usually required. This dough was
a revelation to me; it was SO stiff
and fine. and when made up into
loavess and baked it turned out
splendid bread Of good color,

It costs many sacrifices to run
a newspaper and do it successfully.

go after his scalp and threaten to
stop their paper. OF course they
seldom stop it because that would
involve paying up their back sub

those who favor it would invest

the privilege Of planting him there

If he refuses to starve to death

Farmer Has Sunstroke.

Edward Born, a farmer residing
near Hazel died as a result Of sun
stroke Thursday afternoon, on the
road from the harvest field to his
house.
A short time prior to his death
it was noticed that Mr.. Born was
acting very strangely. He drove
out to the field in his buggy and
was seen to pick up bundles, and
then cut them open. When ap-
preached he said that his binder
was not working we'll and he was
compelled to tie all the bundles
over again by hand. Realizing
that he was not in his right mind,
he was induced to get into the

Late one night, the moon SO brightly
shoRe
From cloudiess sky, looked from his
lofty throne
On earth, SO full Of sorrow aud Of wee,
Rob5ed Of her peace by sin, her great
est foe.
In many shapes and many ways il
came,
And in its steps brought misery and
shame.
One serpent among others, grew and
grew,
F.om harmless pet, TO all-consuming
foe,
It's name was drink, and from its
name shrink,
When of its heinous deeds 1 stop to
think.
On memy's page was written clear
and bold,
Some scenes Of anguish, of woe UNI

| saw child with face so. pure and
sweet,
He had just learned to walk, his little
feet
Ran tottering TO his father nj his call,
Who Said "Ne'll have some fun row
after ALL"
He took the child and put 1t Oh his
knee,
Then made him drink some whiskey
under gee.
The next | saw, a boy not yet fifteen,
His face distorted, agony aad shame
Was plainly written there, when
guarded by
Two servants of the law, they passed
me by.
He greaned in anguish far beyond
control,
my wretched father is the fault Of
all.p
Again saw home where dark des-
pair
Had put its seal upon the faces there,
The little ones were crying hard for
bread.
And In the cradle lay the baby dead
The fatiier--where was he? In the sa-
loon,
The answer came from hopeless moth
er soop,
He took this very last of half worn
clothes,
70 pawn for whiskey for bis burning
throat,
But, oh, my heart will break when
think,
He also took my boy to teach him
dripE.
/ Again i saw scene SO sad and drear
In Friendship strong, that nothing

bound,
Till whiskey came and turned it al
around
And in moment--depd lay for bis

To bear that word again and then

which, by pushing and pulling the
membrane alternately, makes rapid
pulsations. The metal globe contains
two air-filled indiarubber balls of diff
ferent sizes. The larger one is fixed
firmly to the inside wall of the globe.
The smaller is free to move whittier
it likes. The Whole apparatus is
then filed with water, and the motor
set to work.
Each time the membrane is press
ed in, the increased water pressure
causes the rubber balls to contract,
and each time the membrane returns
TO Its original position, the relaxed
pressure of the water causes the two
pals to expand. Inc motor is set
working so quickly that these pulsa-
lions become tnconceivably rapid VI
brations and the contraction and eX-
pansion of the balls is invisible to
the eye. AS water is practically in
compressible, professor Korn thus
obtains the conditions he needs-he
mas two elastic mediums. Then the
phenomenon looked for occurs. When
the vibrations attain certain speed
the smaller ball, impelled by mys-
terious force, begins slowly to move
through the water to the larger ball,
and gradually increases it's speed, ex-
actly as the apple observed by New
ton increased its speed as it fell
nearer to the ground
So far this was merely puzzling
phenomenon. But that it was gravi-
tation, and no other force, which drew
the balls together was soon proved.
Measurements showed that the big
ger ball attracted the smaller exact
" in accordance with Newton's law,
or in inverse ratio to the square OF
the distances between them. 1t be-
came therefore. possible to construct
an exact working model of the solar
system in water, in which the planets
should all move IN their appointed
paths without any visible support, or
externally appned power
