BOOKSHELF FOR MOTHER.
Any Boy Handy at Carpentering Can
Do IL and Wait For Christmas.


Do II and Wait For Christmas.
In almost every household there is
some one who is handy with tools,
says the American Agricuturist.
To prove its assertion it prints the
following story 10y James b. Duncan
and Il picture that shows the result of
painstaking effort.
A bookcase large enough to hold 100
books is an adornment TO any house
hold, and the youngster who is clever
enough TO gather in some nice bits OF
pine wood and then tackle the tool
box in the barn will be sure to have
something extra from mother in his
Christmas stocking.
Here are the rules TO follow:
In the use of all edge tools, If you
would avoid cracks and splitting, be
patient and do not attempt to remove
wood too rapidly, although the tools
should be always kept with perfectly
sharp edges. There is much marking
out to do. and as this must be accu-
rately done a good sharp pencil should
always be at hand. In sandpapering
1t is best to wrap the paper around
n block, as the result is more uniform
than when the paper Is supported by
the hand alone.
The three shelves, which are identi-
cal in every particular, should be
smoothly finished, giving particular
attention to the ends, as these are
visible through the side strips. In or
der to fit around the four corners Of
the uprights. the four corners of these
must be nOtched out. These uprights.
after having been cut TO length.
smoothly finished and the corners
rubbed down very lightly with sand
paper, should have the location Of the
shelves marked on them and then
have the holes bored for the screws.
From half inch wood cut out four
brackets Of such a length as to nit
closely between the two uprights OF
each end. Six little side strips, meas
uring one-fourth by one inch, are re
quired. which should be fiat on TOP
and pointed at their ends.
In assembling make a hole in the
corner Of each shelf and carefully try

a REAL RAT TRAP.

A neighbor of mine placed an
iron kettle partly full of bran,
buckwheat and meat scraps.
with a board approach conVen-
lent for the rats to walk up to
the kettle until they were accus-
toned to feed there. Then the
contents were removed and the
kettle was filled to about the
same depth with water, with a
little bran sprinkIed over for a
blind. Fifteen rats were found
in the kettle the next morning.

Radiator Built on "Loose-Leaf

for Automobiles.

Automob,lists Just now are greatly in

"Loosc tube honeycomb'' radiator,
which ls constructed on the tloose-leaf

removed or inserted without affecting
the work Of the Iadia;or.
The idea of the new device Is TO put
a radiator on the machiue In which
break or leak may be repaired or
stopped without affecting the work of
the accompanying parts. II is con
structed SO that in nm incredibly short

roga. y. Y, and one of the main ideas
Of the inventors has been toward
strong construction The seams Of the
"loose tube' radiator are double
locked and soldered.. and fair-sizod
water passage is left between the walls
OF each individual tube which can be
removed and boiled out in solution in
case there is a clogging. In case Of
leaks the affected tube o. tubes can be
removed, the emergency plugs inserted,
and the ordinary mechanic can solder
up the leak or insert a new tube. These
tubes have very large radiating sur

The tubes are In sections OF four in
dividual tubes and are held firmly in
place against a perfectly fiat washer
set by two screws. The rear ends are
held IN position by studs engaging in
holes. All danger of tubes working
loose is eliminated on account Of their
being attached to the radiator and vi
