The first smile which had dawned in
Harmony Weller's eyes was when she
turned from the amused glance of
the chauffeur.
She went hurriedly into the huge
station and was lost in the crowd.
David Green walked briskly toward
the train which he boarded only after
having seen his companion the taxi
step into the same train. He fol-
lowed her and took seat behind her.
From his point of vantage he
watched every movement of Harmony

sweep into Harmony's face. But
through the long meal she scarcely

She was the first to arise. Green

minutes.

Historically, sheep scab is one Of
the Oldest diseases Of sheep. but its
cause was not discovered until about
the middle OF the nineteenth century
t1S35), when the agent producing the
disease was found to be very small
mite. This mite Is light gray in color
and the female Is one-fortieth and the
male one-sixtieth Of an inch In length.
In general appearance the mite re-
sembles tiny spider. 1t has four
pairs of legs. the last being very
small, and the third pair having long
thread-like appendages which are
longer In the female than in the male.
The mite crawls very slowly, showing
that its power of locomotion is weak.
A female will lay from ten to twenty
eggs during her lifetime. These eggs
are so small that they cannot be dis
tinguished with the naked eye. The
period of incubation Is from four to
ten days, depending mainly upon tenn
perature. Gerlach, noted authority,
estimates the descendants of single
female to be 100000 females and
100000 males at the end OF 80 days.
He estimates the average number OF
eggs from a single female to be Is,
ten Of which hatch females and FIVE
males, and allows Is days for each
generation.
The first symptom that attracts
ones attention to the affected animal
is Its rubbing certain parts of its back,
sides or tail against some object, or
biting at these parts, as the bites Of

well casing which follows by gravity
upon the boring or drilling tool Is re-
garded as one Of the most important
of modern ideas. It has done more
than any other one thing to make GER
tain the boring of a lasting we'll thru
almost any character of soil, rock, sand
and silt.
One of the former greatest troubles
that happened in the deep well was the
parting Of the driving or drilling shaft
ing, and letting the cutting tool free
anywhere from 1000 to 5000 feet on
the bottom. Since the almost universal
adaptability of electricity. the electri-
cal magnet has been the solution of
raising the sunken steel tool At one
time before this device was put into
service, special small cameras were
used, by which the instrument could
be lowered to the level Of the top OF the
tool and picture taken showing just
the position Of the cutter in the
depths.
Persons reading this will recall the
time not so long ago when, after diff
ficult drilling far down, attempts were
made to manufacture an especially
hard, churning drill which would chop
the softer, broken drill end into dusty
steel. When the lost point had been
reduced in this manner 1T could be
brought up by the dipper used for llft-
ing ordinary drilled material.

popular Cass Lake physician was ar

zorro borated by the testimony Of
Bemidji hardware merchan and a sa-

everyone in the courtroom. The mans

physicians that he is victim Of tuber-
