1est For Oil. ~

4 good test for oil. states the Amer
jean Machinist. is to place single drops
IN line upon piece Of plate glass
about eight inches wide and twenty
four inches to thirty inches long. one
end being raised about six inches to
eight inches to form an inclined plane.
The drops Of oil start from the top Of
this inclined plane upon q race with
each other The FIRST day sperm oil
will be found in the rear, but after
awhile it will catch up and ovsrtake
the rest. An oil having q light body
runs quickly and dries quickly. but an
oil that has both 4 body and . free
Tow will readily be detected by this
tost. An oil may have good body
and yet may have q tendency to gum
badly. which quality will also b easily
detected upon the glass. The oils
should be covered from dust while
these tests are being made.

consolidating Gracemont, Hillside
and Camp Creek school districts.
Mrs. NcFayden. the county snperin.

DENMARK.

Maurice F. Egan, United States
ambassador to Denmark, is doing his
best to explain the break which the
Danes made in giving such a royal
reception to DR.. Cook, supposed ex-
plorer of the North Pole. To a Mime
apolis newspaper reporter Mr.. Egan
recently made the following state
ment: "The north pole is looked up
on as in the front yard of Denmark
Little Danish children are brought up
on tales of exploration. To them
the stories of the Arctic are like the
fairy tales of the children of Amer
lea, or of the study of the life of
George Washington. Americans are
the most popular OF foreign people in
Denmark. and when reputable ex-
plorer, as DR.. Cook was believed to be,
arrived and announced he had found
the pole, the people met him with
acclaim and gloried in his conquest
His announcement touched the sub
ject nearest their hearts. He was
banqueted and feasted. Proofs of his
discovery was not asked, because it
is not customary to ask for them
His statements were accepted without
question"

A PLEASANT THOUGHT.

At the hour of eleven tonight, when
friends meet friends and the cooling
draughts refresh exhausted nature and
at the same time kindles anew the fiery
ties of friendship and cements the
fraternalism co-eXiStent with habita-
ton on this terrestrial sphere. each
participant in the luxuries Of the hour
should vow in his own mind deter
mination to seek relief from the torrid
conditions that exist at present and
perhaps will continue to hover over this
mundane sphere by taking trip on the
Elks' excursion on Monday. 1t may
not be possible to 60 on the first boat,
nor yet the second, but when the
shadows of evening begin to gather, it
is earnestly hoped that the fair haired,
bright-eyed ever joyful lad and lassie
will be seen winding their footsteps
toward the Z o'clock boat, either for a
cool trip on the Potomac or a chance
to trip the fantastic toe. All arrange
ments have been perfected by this COM
mittee and a good old Elk time is
promised. In the multiplicity of
amuscments promised, the young and
old will have their wishes gratihed.
