pie do not seem to know they have

scious of the cause OF the trouble.
You should have a full and free
movement at least once a day. If you

the result will be that you will catch
a cold easily or have a more serious
ailment. To cure the constipation and

Then each child makes for it's own

Down they sit until just the curly

while the hose is turned directly on

said the retired army officer, taking
off his glasses, "and we feel that we
are progressing at tremendous
pace, but here's newspaper account
saying that the French government
has unearthed in Babylonia $4,000 tab
lets, giving history in full of the
reign of the ancient kings. Here we
find for the first time that Babylon,
and not Rome, was the real Mother
of Law In those days there was a
system of courts and of appeals that
even suggested recall Sir. this re-
port also states that during the days

proved beyond doubt that the Egyp-
tian government in 4,5OO B. C. had a
perfected system of civil service.
There is a record that the first tur-
bine engine was invented by the
Egyptians, and that Archimedes de-
vised this mechanical contrivance by
which the fields could be watered

same principle that is used to drive
the latest additions to the Cunard-
ers."
What shocked the doughty old
American most of all was the informa
ton that four thousand years ago
the phonograph was used in ancient
Egypt, and was in reality only per-
fected by Edison in the nineteenth
century. There is evidence also of
the use of wireless telegraphy before
the Christian era, while the Egyptian
alphabet has proven to be a scientific
key to organized human speech. It is
a hard blow to our self-suficiency to
find that the banjo of the southern

A ToOL-cHEsT AND A ToOL-RAcK.

If you received an outfit of tools for
Christmas, or a few as the start of an
outfit, one of the first things you
should do is provide a receptacle for
them--unless they came in a chest or
cabinet.
A chest is very simple to make. A
srocery-box or small packing-case
about % inches long, IA inches wide
and 10 inches deep may be used, and
one may be procured at the grocery
or a dry-goods store for 10 or Is
cents. Select box that is in good
condition, and go over it and renal
all boards that show signs OF loosen
ing; also drive in few extra nails
as additional reinforcement
The chest shown in Figs. l and z
has drop-leaf In front, which makes
it big improvement over the COM
mon form of solid front, because you
can reach down under the tray and
get tool in the bottom OF the chest
without having to remove the tray.
One of the side boards OF the box
should be removed for the drop-leaf,
The Virginia enterprise., 1913-05-16

nailed to the drop-leaf; then, by
throwing the hasp over the staple
and slipping paddock through the
staple, not only the cover will be
locked, but the drop-leaf will be also.
Procure a pair of trunk-handles, win
dow-sash lifts or drawer-pulls for han.
dies, and screw one to each end OF
the box.
The tray should be made a tritie
shorter than the inside length of the
box, about one-half of the width of the
box, and three or four inches deep,
and small strip should be tackled to
each end of the box, inside, for a
cleat to support the tray Hooks and
pockets may be fastened to the in.
side of the cover, to hold tools, and
the bottom of the chest may be par.
titioned off with strips for the planes,
saws, etc.
Stain the chest any color you wish
to have it, making stain of Oil paint
thinned with turpentine, and when
this has been allowed to soak in give
the wood a coat or two OF shellac.
1t is very handy to have a tool-rack
back of the workbench, or on the
wall within easy reach of the bench,
to hold tools between operations, and
simple form for such a rack is
shown in Fig. 5. The lower shelf is
intended to rest upon the bench-top,
if you fasten the rack to the bench,
and it supports the ends OF bits and
other small tools dropped into the
holes in the shelf directly above it.
Cut the two shelves of equal proper.
tions. Bore holes through the upper
| one, spacing them about as shown in
Fig. 6, and then with saw and ch1sel
cut slots in the back edge OF the
piece and nail narrow strip such
as is shown in Fig. 6 to the shelf, to
form a back to the slots Zig. s..
Spools of various sizes should be
screwed or nailed to the upper hori
zontal pieces of the rack, to hang
tools upon.
If you fasten the rack to your
bench, screw the lower shelf to the
bench-top and the lower ends Of the
uprights to the back of the bench.
Do not leave your tools in the rack
wien you are through working. II
will be too great a temptation TO,
somebody to borrow tool now and
then. which they may forget to re
turn to its place. Put everything
away in your chest, and you will al
ways know where to find it.

ground. Never let the weeds get the
start on you and it will not take half
as much work to handle your garden,
this year. - E.
. Why should we keep the weeds out
of the garden? Principally because
they steal water from the vegetables,
and water is the very life blood
of plants: Secondly, the weeds are all
very hearty feeders and every one in
your garden is using up a considerable
proportion of the available plant food.
Remember that hoeing is good for

Batten the cover boards together
upon the under face with two battens,
as shown in Fig. 2. Then cut num-
ber Of strips two inches wide and
three-eighths-inch thick and make a
rim for the cover, mailing the strips
to the edges as shown in the draw
ings. Set the cover upon the top OF
the box, locate where the lower edges
of the rim come, and at this point
nail band of the two-inch strips
around the box. This will form a
ledge for the cover to set upon. Hinge
the cover in place as shown in Fig. 4.
Fasten a hinge-hasp to the cover and

How Tailors Sew on Buttons,

sew on buttons and make a knot and
hold the knot in the teeth while they
twist the thread, then they wax it and
that keeps it twisted. Then they put
a pin across the button, and after the
buttons are sewed on they remove
the pin and wind the thread around
several times, making a kind of a
stem. This makes it more easy to
button the garment. The buttons on
children's waists should be sewed on
this way so more than one garment
can be buttoned on the same waist
