NATURES PATENT OFFICE.
Pulley, Block and Tackle and Safety
Valve Anticipated.


The block and pulley, or tackle" "
was a great mechanical discovery,
but nature made every man carry
several of these around with him
at the very beginning of creation.
The most important of these tao
kles is found in the eye. If you
turn your eye to look at the tip Of
your nose you use this block and
pulley, which is just as perfect as
any erected on a ship to hoist sail.
The muscle which moves the eye
ball works through the block easily
and smoothly and without friction,
for nature has supplied to all Of her
machinery automatic or mechanical
oil inventions. These never fail to
work unless we are sick, and then
the danger of a hot box is to be
considered.
The invention of the safety valve
for steam engines has saved thou
sands Of lives and millions of doll
lars of property. 1t is an invention
that stands prominently to the
front in this age Of mechanical
progress. But nature supplied us
each with a safety valve which for
effectiveness works better than any
made by man. If we did not have
this safety valve we would not live
twenty-four hours. This safety
valve is the perspiratiye, or sweat,
glands, and to make sure that we
would not run short Of the supply
nature has furnished the body with
some two and a half millions Of
them. If our temperature rose or
8 degrees we would die within a few
hours, and yet we could not run,
row, play tennis, ball or even walk
safely any distance without increas-
ing our temperature to the danger
point if we had no safety valve pro-
vided so ingeniously by nature.
The cup and ball socket and the
air tight valve were first used in the
human body. If our hip joints and
arms we're not provided with air
tight sockets we would get too tired
to continue our work for any length
Of time in just holding these limbs
together by muscles. 1t is the
pressure Of the air which holds
them in place, and thus all physical
effort is avoided. In the various
air tight joints and sockets found in
the human body one may find near
ly all the mechanical principles in
volved in the air brake or the use
of compressed air for a thousand
different things.
Some one exclaims that nature
did not discover ball bearings,
mechanical device which has revo-
lutionized the vehicular world. But
the principle is almost developed in
the ball of the leg bone and the
socket Of the hip, which are made
so smooth and are so well oiled that
they slide back and forth with prac-
tically no friction.-Grand Rapids
Herald.

a Paper Tiuer.

Quite recently a Chinaman IN
London was heard to wind up a
dispute with another man with the
words, "You paper tiger" Asked
what he meant, the oriental replied,
ooh, in China a paper tiger is a
fool who talks much, but is harm
less.
"When a man is very proud, what
you would call stuck up" he went
on, eve compare him to rat fall
ing into scale and weighing him
self.
'1f a Chinaman overdoes any
thing we say, You hunchback max
ing a bow A son who spends his
fathers wealth quickly is "a rocket
while of some Of you rich people
here who send money to the heath
ems abroad and neglect your fami-
lies at home we say, You hang your
lantern on a pole which is seen
from afar, but gives no light be-
low "-London Paper.

The Power Behind.

At a prayer meeting a good old
brother stood up and said he was
glad to give testimony.
"My wife and l." he said, start
ed in life with hardly a cent in the
world. We began at the lowest
round of the ladder, but the Lord
has been good to us, and we have
worked up-we have prospered. We
bought little farm and raised good
crops. We have a good home and a
nice family Of children, and" he
added, with much emphasis, 81 am
the head of that family"
After he sat down his wife
promptly arose to corroborate all
that he had said. But she added,
with satisfaction, 81 am the neck
that moves the head"
