A Snake Story.

The family were at dinner when there came a tap at door seldom opened. Winning no attention. it was repeated and again a third time. though more softly. and then the door was swung back and. behold, there was a snake, Knocking at the portals of hospitality! Down upon its head. in conformity with the decree of tradi. ton and with Ezra's understanding of scriptural direction. crunched Brit ish boot. It was mother snake, who. having bravely overcome her fear of man. was seeking sustenance. not for herself perhaps, though she was stary- Ing. but more likely for the little ones that were found in the grass by the brook. Thus for once, at any rate. did the craftiness of the devil succumb to the instinct of motherhood.-George B. M. Harvey in North American Re- view

The "Macaroni."

The "macaroni" were exquisites or .ops who in England and France led the fashions from 1780 to 17S5 and were distinguished by an immense knot of artificial hair worn on the top of their heads. A small cooked hat which perched ridiculously on their topknot, satin or brocade coats and small clothes fitting tightly to the body and silk stockings with ribbon garters composed the costume of these fash ionable gentlemen vho invariably car ried a long walking stick with tassels attached and frequently bouquet tied to the handle and encouraged a minc- ing and affected gait and manner. There was during the war for inde pendence body of Maryland soldiers who on account of their showy uni forms were called "macaroni."

 Mohammedans of India are very superstitious No Mohamrnedan will take bath on Sunday or Tuesday But if one bathes on Wednesday all misfortunes and misery that are in store for him till the next Wednesday medans bathe on Fridays before going to perform the jumma prayers. For donning new clothes Saturday. Sunday and Tuesday are regarded as bad days If any one dons a new dress or puts on new cloth or allows his tailor to will live miserable life till that dress or cloth gets torn or is thrown away If shirt is torn and if the wearer wants to stitch it, it must be taken off, for if it is stitched while on the body the person will soon die. A Moham- medan will never allow a barber to come near him on Tuesdays. for Tues days and Saturdays and Sundays are bad days for shaving. If absolutely necessary he will get himself shaved ID Saturday or Sunday, but never on Tuesday, as his star is supposed to fall tn blood if he does so. If one receives money or some valuable thing, it is taken with the right 4hand, d,- fee~if-fr Is taken with the left the person re- >eiving it is said to forget all about t Gerys soon. or to mislay it. A de sout Moha mmedan will not start on a journey on Wednesday,. for it is be- ieved he will never return home safe ' if he does so And 1t Is said that .ven snake never ventures out of ts hole on this day.

THE MILITARY SQUARE.
Formation Borrowed by Wallace

 The greatest of all Scottish annlver saries is that of Banuockburn, tough! i'll the year 1914. Apart from it's bear ing on the independence of Scotland. tho battle will always have an excep tional interest from the military poiui of view aS Bannockburn may be said 10 have been the birthplace of tue British square. Proud Edward S army mainly consisted of cayalr% while that of the Scots, on the ethei hand, was almost exclusively composed Of foot folk armed with the spcai and these Bruce threw into 'schil sroIns." or oblong squares, formation borrowed by Wallace from the Elem ings, who had employed it with sue cess at Couttray to resist the charge ot the English cavalry.
 Hitherto the mounted mail clad knight had carried everything before him, but Courtray and Bannockburn proved that ne was powerless to break resolute spear armed infantry drawn up in ''schiltrom." or hedgehog, forma lion, and these two battles revolution lzed the tactics of the continent and of our own island. Proiting by the lesson which had been taught them at Bannockburn. the English applied the tactics of the Scots with brilliant success at Crecy and still more at Agincourt. As it was the Scots who may be said to have originated the British square at Bannockburn, so it was they again who at Balaklava were the first to discard it with their thin red line" and now, owing to our changed conditions of warfare. it is discarded ltogether.-London Chron icle,

forty very sensational amusement de-
vices. There will also be free bal

season, and free continuous outdoor
entertainments. This park located
as it is on the Palisades directly op-
posite Grants Tomb, and three hun

HINT FOR INVENTORS.
Convenient Method of Making Patterns
of Small Objects


How often does the inventor want
to see how thing will look in met
al" but on account of the expense and
delay involved dislikes to make a pat
tern and take it to the foundry.
writes correspondent of Popular Me-
chanics. A wood pattern of some de-
sign, say handle, would take con-
siderable time to make and finish up
so it would make u decent casting.
In the case of many small articles
much trouble may be saved by making
what the writer has termed ''beesway
patterns" They may be made as fol
lows: Pour the melted beeswax into
rough mold Ca paper box will doI ap-
proximately the size you wish for
your pattern. When this WAX is cold
carve it to the desired shape. using IL
sharp knife slightly warmed. Make
another rough mold similar to the first
and fill with plaster of paris mixed
with water to the consistency Of
cream. Immerse the beeswax pattern
in this. leaving vents and gates and
taking care that no air bubbles form.
and let stand until set and thoroughly
dry Slowly heat the plaster to tem-
perature sufficient to cause ali the
beeswax to run out of the gates and
vents which have been provided.
Pour in melted solder to replace the
wax. allow it to harden and break
open the plaster. You will then have
a smooth solder casting. which. if nee
essary. can be worked to better
shape with the soldering iron. This
solder casting may be used for a pat
tern which will give excellent results.
Beeswax lends itself we'll to this
kind of "sculpturing" if rightly han
died. 1t may be turned on lathe
drilled and generally fashioned at will
This method is not practicable where
a core. as for the inside of ball. is
required. but otherwise has a wide
range of usefulness.
