A STATE CARRIAGE.
Present to a Chinese Emperor That
Puzzled the Orientals.

Present to a Chinese Emperor That
Puzzled the Orientals.
When. in 1893, Sir George Macart-
new headed the first British embassy
to China, he brought with him numer-
GUS presents for the emperor. Among
these was a magnificent state carriage,
an article which delighted, but at the
same time puzzled, the Chinese more
than any other gift. Nothing like 1t
had ever been seen at the capital.
Comical disputes Immediately arose as
to the seat intended for the emperor.
The hammercloth which covered the
box of the carriage had smart edging
Of festoons Of roses. 1t made splen-
did appearance, and that. with its ele-
waited position, Immediately determined
the official mind that 1t was without
doubt the emporer's seat. Then the
question arose of what the inside OF
the coach was intended for. The blinds.
screens and so forth were all carefully
examined, and it was decided that the
interior was the place for the ladies
only.
An old retainer went to member OF
the embassy to ask if the conclusions
were correct When he learned that
the fine elevated box was the seat OF
the coachman and that the emperor's
place was inside the coach he was
Mortified He asked, with a sheer, ii
it was supposed that the son of heav-
en- would suffer any one to sit higher
than himself and turn his back on him.
When he found that the driver was
obliged to use the seat in question he
requested that the box be removed and
placed somewhere behind.-Heen II.

MAKING NEEDLES.
evaporation

From the Coil of Fine Steel Wire to
the Finished Product.
In the making of needles a coil of
fine steel wire is first run into an elab-
crate machine and cut into pieces the
length of two needles. These lengths
are gathered into little bundles, and
each end of the wire is sharpened at
the rate Of hundreds a minute by be-
ing pressed against a grindstone, the
sparks. flying in a continuous stream,
making a miniature firework display.
Two eyes are next stamped in the GEN.
ter of the wire, which is then broken
in half, forming two needles, and
roughly first finished" by having the
burs rubbed down.
At this stage the needles are still
soft wire and need hardening, so they
are soaked in a bath of hot oil and
when cool again are quite hard and
brittle. Then follows the polishing
process, when, done up in bundles Of
thousands, the needles are continually
rolled in sand for a period of seven
days. coming forth from. the process
with a fine polish.
Lastly they are threaded on wires,
and a little friction makes the eyes
bright and clear before they are taken
to the packing room.-Pear son's Week.

YOUR TEMPERATURE.
The Reason a SubIinsuaI Test Is Used
il Eindino IL

In Finding 1t.
What is q persons normal tempera-
ture? Is a question often asked of ev-
cry physician.
When the answer 9S.6 degrees F. is
given to the query very few people
understand the physiological signffi-
canoe of this fact or how degree or
systemic heat Is maintained during
health within such narrow limits that
their bodies have an even tempera-
ture the coolest day in winter or the
hottest day in summer with an ex-
actness of adjustment that is not OBJ
tainable in warming or cooling their
homes with the most up to date heat
ing and refrigerating apparatus.
Now, in accepting the statement
that the body temperature is 9s.6 de-
grees F. it must be borne in mind
that to some extent this is a relative
figure, for the warmth Of the exte-
rior varies markedly from that OF the
interior. Tie surface temperature or
the head. hands or abdomen may diff
fer from SO degrees L. down to 81 de-
grees F. or lower, while that OF the
internal regions may extend up to
1922 degrees F., the average Of blood
circulating in organs like the liver
pancreas and kidneys. For practical
purposes some gauge must be accept
ed whereby normal temperature may
be measured and compared. There
fore on account of convenience and
practicability the temperature taken
carefully under the tongue by a elm
zeal thermometer has been selected as
a common standard throughout med
tcal circles. 1t is sometimes recorded
in the axilla or groin instead OF In
the mouth when for any reason a
sublingual test is not advantageous.
The temperature of these localities
differs slightly from the mouth. being
3 degrees F. less.-Technical World

THE WAR IN THE BALKANS

While it is we'll understood
at the underlying cause of the
sent war between Turkey and
Falkin allies is the racial and
= is antipithy of neighbor-
ing NATIONS, the precise reason
OF the present conflict is not AL
ways made clear in the mass of
newspaper comment upon the
outbreak. To those who have no
definite understanding on the
subject, 1t may be said that the
precise cause Of the war is the
failure OF the Turkish govern
ment to carry out its agreement
unoef the treaty Of Berlin sign
ed IN 1878, to give an autonomous
government to the Bulgarians
living IN Rounelia, which is the
eastern portion of Turkey in

Jus. That the end will be the
expulsion of the Turk from Eu-
rope, where for five centuries he
has been an interloper and a
plague spot, is the end to be
wished. With the qualities OF
intelligence, patriotism and self
restraint shown by the allies in
this latter day fight for freedom
and humanity, there can be no
doubt that their increase in ter
ritory and influence will be an
achievement which will make for
the increase of civilization in
the world.

WILSON'S CAMPAIGN

A fact whic h adds to the
delight of Democrats in the re-
suit Of the recent campaign is the
bearing throughout of Gov.
Woodrow Wilson, it's triumphant
leader. In contrast with the I'M
fair, and often i'll tempered con-
duct of Mr.. Roosevelt on the one
hand, and the wild and pannicky
utterances ofPresident Taft and
his managers on the other, the
whole attitude of the Democratic
candidate and his official repre-
sentaves can only shine the
brighter.
1t must be conceded that Mr..
Wilson's position towards the
other candidates was a bsolutely
fair and good tempered. For
Instance, he treated the Progress
sive movement not as an assem-
bly, of disconnected and impracti-
cal faddists, but as an indication
of the real and excusable dissat-
isfaction with many of the re-
cent tendencies of the nation. On
The other hand, every utterance
of Mr.. Roosevelt was to belittle
Wilson and the forces behind
him and to misrepretent him in
every undignified and unfair
way.
From the Republican sources
we had the eleventh hour cries
of panics and business depres-
sion in the event of Democratic
success, This was disproved by
the fact that business interests
had for months realized that
Democratic success was almost a
certainty, and there had been no
panic or anything looking any
thing like it. Although this was
proof enough to thoughtful peo-
pie, that the claims of the Rep
ubllcans were unwarranted, the
cry might have caught some of
the timid and thoughtless, and
it was to these only that the ar
gument was directed.
Besides the thoughtful, learn
ed and far-seeing statesman.
Governor Wilson has shown him
self to be the warm-hearted
friend of the people of every de-
gree and calling who make the
strength of America. It is these
splendid qualities of heart. his
sense of justice and his deep con-
vlction of the right Of every man
and woman to the fair chance in
lie which, added to his wonder
5ul intellectual endowments and
aparatlon, inspire the great
ses of the people with an ad-
ion and confidence which
them peculiar delight in
contemplating his guidance of
the nation for the next four
years.
