The Way These Necessary Articles
Are Put Together.
In most umbrella factories the task
of turning out ribs and stems is left
to other factories making a speciality
of those parts. These are sent to the
manufacturer, and the man whose
work it is to assemble the parts inserts
a bit Of wire into the small holes at
the end of the ribs, draws them to-
gether about the main rod and adjusts
the ferrule.
In cutting the cloth or silk seventy
five thicknesses or thereabouts are ar
ranged upon table at which skilled
operators work. In one department
there are girls who operate hemming
machines. A thousand yards Of hem
med goods Is but a days work for one
of these girls. The machines doing
this job attain a speed Of some 5000
revolutions a minute. After the hem
ming has been done the cloth or silk is
cut into triangular pieces with knife,
as before, but with pattern laid upon
the cloth. The next operation is the
sewing of the triangular pieces togeth,
er by machinery. -'.
The covers and frames are now
ready to be brought together. In all
there are twenty-one places where the
cover Is to be attached to the frame.
The handle is next glued on, and the
umbrella is ready for pressing and in

and asked Field If he couldn't arrange

Couldn't you square that up now?"

Field. 'If | had I'd pay you"
"Well, I'll settle for whatever you've
got" CHANGED the proprietor.
Whereupon Field went through his
clothes and dug up from all sources
the sum of Go cents. The proprietor
was game and settled the S3S account
for Fields pile.
But that wasn't all. Isn't 1t Gus

HUMAN BOATS.
Swimmers Who Used to Rig Them
selves With Sails,

When you throw piece of wood into
the water and watch how nicely 1t
floats, has Ii never occurred to you to
make yourself into boat and To go
floating about as easily and coolly as
q real boat does?
This may sound very queer. but to
one who has confidence in himself 1t
is quite practicable. "A was proved
many years ago by n Dr. Bedale OF
Manchester. This gentleman. noted
long distance swimmer, was often to
be seen floating about the river Mer-
sey for hours at time. He used to
fasten a strong belt round his waist
and attach to II light mast and sail.
which he could furl or unfuri Ms he lny
comfortably on his back. and no doubt
II was very enjoyable.
This was carried n step further by
another noted swimmer. Captain Boy

A MENACE TO OIL SHIPS.
The Deadly vapor That Stays After
the Petroleum Is Gone.

The explosion Of vessels carrying pc
troleum frequently occurs. and this Is
generally caused not by the cargoes or
oil which they contain. but by the H.
fammable vapor which is left behind
after the huge tanks Of the ships have
been emptied.
II Is difficult TO remove all the oil
that adheres to the sides OF the tank,
and the evaporation of the oil hlm
left In them after they have been
pumped out takes place with great
rapidly. Moreover, the vapor thus
formed mingles readily with the air
and is capable Of rendering more than
1000 times its own volume OF the for
mer infiamma Bile. A spark may thus
cause a fearful explosion In the hold
of a ship that is apparently empty.
A film of petroleum spreading over
the surface of the water has been
known TO produce enough OF this vola-
tile and dangerous vapor to cause a
conhagration, by which a number OF
ships lying in n barbor have been sud
denly enwrapped in roaring flames as
IL by a stroke of magic.
In some parts Of the world. as ut
Baku, the center OF the Russian petro-
| leum trade. Il film Of oil continually
covers the water for considerable
distance from shore. and warnings OF
the danger there have more than once
been giyen.- Exchange.

THE PRICKLY PEAR.
This III Natured Fruit Is Remarkably
Tenacious Of Life.

Tenacious Of Life.
The prickly pear is said to be so
tenacious Of life that leaf or even
n small portion of leaf, II thrown on
the ground. strikes out roots within
a short time and becomes the parent
Of n fast growing plant.
Mischievous though the African
prickly pear may be. 1t Is not without
its good qualities. Its juicy fruit,
though rather deficient In flavor, Is
delightfully."- cool and refreshing In the
dry heat of summer, and a kind OF
treacle Is made from It.
Great caution must be exercised In
peeIing this curious fruit, the proper
way being to impale the fruit on a
fork or stick while one cuts It open
and removes the skin. The individ.
uaI who undertakes TO pluck this
treacherous fruit with unguarded fin
gers meets with an experience he does
not soou forget. Concentrated essence
of singing uettle seems all ut once
to assail hands. lips and tongue, and
the skin. wherever ii comes in con
tact with the III natured fruit, is COW
cred with II group Of minute bristly
hairs. apparently growing from 1t and
venomous and irritating TO the last de-
gree.
In dry weather these spiteful little
siings do not even wait for the newly
arrived victim. but fly about. light as
thiStedown. ready to settle on any
one who has not learned by experience
to give the prickIy pear bush a wide
berth.

DEEPEST SLEEP.
II Always Occurs During the First
Hour Of Slumbcr.


Hour Of Slumber.
"Yes," said the doctor, ''sleep is a
very puzzling mystery. Nobody knows
what the cause of it is, but we do
know that II is always accompanied
by anaemia of the brain. In other
words, when you sleep the blood
drains away from the head to the
limbs. If you fell asleep on bal
anced bed. the moment you dropped
of the foot of the bed would begin to
sink. and the deeper the sleep the
greater the slant.
THAT is why hot bath tends to
sleepiness. 1t brings the blood 10 the
skin and so lessons the supply in the
brain. CuriousIy enough. great cold
has the same effect and for the same
reason. You know how cold swells
and reddens the hands.
Recent experiments have shown
conclusively how pale and bIoodless
the brain grows in sleep. How?
Well. a piece of bone has been remov-
ed from the skull Of a puppy and a
watchglass inserted instead. The mo-
ment the puppy under observation
wakes its brain at once grows pink
again. No; the puppy doesn't seem to
mind It,
Experiments made by dropping
heavy balls have shown that sleep is
always at its deepest in the first hour
After that Inconsistencies gets shah

AESCHYLUS.
Curious Fsts That Overlook the "a
Their Of Gresk Tragedy.

Curious Fate That Overlook the Pa
Their Of Gresk Tragedy.
Aeschylus. the celebrated Greek
dramatic writer. is universally reier-
red to as the father OF Greek trage-
dy." Born OF a noble family at Eleu-
sis. In Attica. 525 b. C., at the age OF
twenty -four he first presented himself
at the festival of Bacchus as a COM
petitor for the public prize and hfteen
years afterward gained his nrst VIC
tory. The pre-eminence which ne mus
acquired was successfully maintained
TIL 46S q. G., when he was deteateu
In a similar contest by his younger
rival. Sophocles.
Aeschylus, mortified at the indignity
he thought this put upon him, quilted
Athens and went to the court OF HE
70, king of Syracuse. OF the remain
ing period OF his life but httle Is
known. except that he continued TO
prosecute his favorite pursuit. anu
that bis residence in Sicily was OF
some duration may be inferred from
the fact that It was sufficient TO AZ
feet the purity of his language.
The thirteenth and last victory OF
Aeschylus was gained in ass b. c. On
the manner Of his death, which was
singular, the ancient writer's are unan-
imous While sitting motionless IN
the fields his bald head was mistaken
for a stone by an eagle which nap
pened to be flying over him with a
tortoise In her bill. The bird dropped
the tortoise to break the shell. and the
poet was killed by the blow.
Aeschylus is said TO have been the
author OF seventy tragedies, of which
only seven are now extant.
