And Is It Truly Made of Goldf

You may do it if you really want TO,
Jasper" remarked Beryl, as she came
in one evening and found him staring
hard out the window.
Jasper sat up in bed, smiling with de-
light. oh, but how could you know
what l was thinking?" he demanded
eagerly.
Never mind that" she said briskly.

you could see inside all those roofs. And

n EFoRE making toys for an electro
II motor you will want to set it on a
base. The drawings show a very
simple and inexpensive way to connect a
motor that has no switch or speed lever.
The advantage of connecting motor like
this is that it requires only two batteries
to get three speeds.
The base should be about a quarter inch
thick.
For the controller you viii need four
point switch and one point switch for
tie brake
The Washington herald., 1912-01-14

The brake is made of piece of spring
brass about one-half inch wide. The
length depends on the size of the motor.
You viii usually find that the shaft of
motor is about three-quarters or one
inch too long for the use Of more than one
pulley.
Bend the brass as shown in Fig. 2.
Then cut it in half for about one-haf
inch up from the bottom. Bend these
legs up at right angles to the brake in
opposite directions, and bore hole in
each of them so you can nail them to the
base.
The Washington herald., 1912-01-14

Now you will need q coil such as is
used in bells, annunciators, &c. If you
cannot find an old coil around the house
so to an electrician or hardware store
and they probably viii have an old broken
bell they will give you or sell you cheap
This coil must be set up on level with
the motor shaft. Use stiff wire for this
bending, as shown in Fig. 3
Now arrange your motor, switches,
brake and coil on the base. Nail the
brake down fast so that it meets the
motor shaft in the manner shown in Fig
2. Place the coil so that the core Just
touches the brake. Now bend the brake
back and away from the shaft on a curve
(see dotted lines, Fig. y so that when you
complete the circuit the brake, drawn
toward the shaft by the coil, will fit closely
around it and the friction caused will stop
the motor.
Now make your connections. All con-
neetions should run under the base. Al
though the drawings show the coil con-
nected to binding posts, these are not
necessary, the wires simply being run
from the coil down hole in the base,
hugging the under side, one to the battery
and the other to the switch.
After connecting your switches screw
them to the base. All connections are run
to three binding posts at the edge of the
board. Though this is not necessary it
makes a neater job and makes 1t easier
to discomect the batteries when you are
through with the motor.
Now connect your batteries, and you are
ready to start the motor. To operate it
you move the controller 10 first, second or
third speed. To get the second, or inter
mediate, speed you let the controller rest
on points two and three. To stop, turn
the controller to ''Off' and at the same
time put on the brake BY completing tie
circuit with tie Oder switch.

Dog TrufTe Hunters of England

The dogs that dig the trufaes are Of
Spanish descent and resemble poodles.
They are a special breed and there are
only a few of them. Their masters live
by hunting trufies. Mr.. Thomas Yeates,
one of the most famous trufle hunters, is
descended from a long line Of trufle
hunters, as his dogs are also descended
from a long line of truffie hunting ami
mails.
The truffies generally grow near beech
trees, and when they are ripe there is 8
delicate odor which comes from them.
The trufie hunting dog smells this at
once and begins to dig away at the earth
until he brings up the trufle. He is SO
adept that he never makes a mistake.
Once when the late King Edward Wis
tied the village of Winterslow, where
there are several of these truffie hunting
dogs, he became so interested in trufile
hunting that he spent an entire day in
watching the dogs at work.
