The Charm Of Moving.

.yes we've moved again.. Every
woman remarked. "And the only
house we could find that had sleep
ling porch and the right shade OF nI'cN
in the fireplace was for sale instead u
for rent, so we had to buy 1t may Oe
announcement when we start 10 move
next time, but, of course, Wen just
have to sell. Living In one mousse too
,onp does get monotonous 1t is just as
had as wearing one suit two seasons
or one hat two Sundays in succession
Houses wear out, too. 1t Is much more
interesting to fix up new house tnan
IN trv to make an old one over. Every
time one gets new draperies ne, or n
Itber she. really ought to move
..Moying would not be at all baus -
| ~ were not for--well for the moving.
We have moved four times during tpe
last wear. and at a different hour eacn
time IT always seems inconvenleut.
Getting ready to move is tiresomc, but
| II is not exactly necessary. Lots Of
people just let the moving men come
IN ana carry things out. and that Is
what they do any way. SO it does not
matter much. They always come IN
and look round until they find q wash
boiler and a couple of irons and = pair
of cufrbuttons and lamp to begin
with. If ycu move in the morning
they leave the stove until the last
thing in the evening. and II you move
in the evening they leave the beds lin-
til the next morning Getting settled
! is hard work, but interesting. II your
maid gets dizzy washing windows and
is not strong enough to beat rugs. you
may have to do it yourself, but 1t Is a
comfort to see how nice and new ev-
erything looks. 1t is difficult to get
much to eat for several days during
moving time, but it is treat to have
an entirely new set Of neighbors to
| watch.
'sThe first time we moved it was to
get away from the noise We got q
quiet house, but moved again to get a
garden. The house that had garden
had a broken furnace, and we moved
gain to get good furnace. There is
always some reason for moving away
from every place The only difference
is that some people move and some
don't. Most people do. There are so
many places to live that it seems a
shame to stay in the same place all
| the time This house has no garden.
and it is not very quiet, and you never
can tell about furnace, but it has a
lovely sleeping porch and the decora-
tions in the living room are just the
shade of the new draperies.-Indianap-

TRAPPED BY THEIR TEETH.
New Method of Identification Better
Than the BertiIIon System.

At the present time the police de-
partments of Europe and America are
seriously considering a system of GRIM
inal identification by the teeth, advo-
Gated by DR.. Richard Grady, who has
been official dentist at the Naval
Academy at Annapolis for several
years. Indeed, many experts consider
that DIR. Grady's method has distinct
advantages over the Bertillon finger
print system.
Each cadet. on entering the acad-
envy, is examined by DR.. Grady to as
certain the condition of his teeth. sEv-
|ery irregularity is charted, and the pc
lculiarities of each tooth duly noted
/, The chart is then carefully preserved
| and should one of the cadets at any
| time be killed or mangled so that ordi-
nary body marks might become un.
recognizable, Identification by means
of DR.. Grady's card index is always
possible, providing only that most o!
the teeth remain.
| AS an illustration of the value Of
identification by the teeth, DR.. Grady
cites the Prince Imperial of France
who was slain in the Zulu War il
/, South Africa in the late seventies. The
Prince, who was serving with the Brit
Iisll forces, was cut off and, with hi.
command, was massacred. his body be
ing so badly mutilated that it seemed
| identification was impossible. Not {
shred of clothing was left on the body
and, of course no documents or pa
,pers of any kind remained to aid in es
Itablishing the identity of the body.
However, it was known that den
tist of Paris had performed severa
dental operations upon the Prince ant
had filled number of teeth, as we'll a.
Treating some of the front teeth tt
overcome the results of an accident, il
which they had been slightly broken
With this information, and a diagram
Of the Princes teeth showing exactl,
the work that had been done upo,
them identification was made easy.

According to a Spanish writer on
Japan, the most pathetic suicide re-
corded IN the history of that country
took place over eight centuries ago.
In 11S1," writes Senor Gomez Garlic.
"the nine-year-old emperor, Kotuku.
saw his troops defeated. The child
disheveled his hair, wept copiously,
and invoked the holy name of Bud
dha. When he had finished his nurse,
Niidono, took him in her arms to the
seashore.' There is lovely city be-
meath the bay she said. and then the
waves covered the emperor and his
nurse. e."--London Chronicle

shape the scarves or bevels. Then
this straight piece of heavy wrought
iron with searyed ends is swaged into
link form, and if it is TO be stud ~
bar chain, there is placed within the
link before 1t is welded together the
stud or bar. This is stout little bar
of cast iron, with its ends rounded In,
concaved to fit the rounding surface
of the link iron. the stud being placed
across the link inside of it and midway
of its length.
I Once in place and the link pinehed
together on its ends, the stud could MT
be got out except by breaking 1t OFT
with a sledge. Its purpose is to pre-
vent the links from drawing together
at their sides and wedging under
heavy strains. In stud chain there
is a stud in every link.
With this stud in place and the link
beat TO shape with the scarves over
tapping. the link is again put IN tne
fire to be finally heated for the weld
ing. which is done by hand. It takes
a blacksmith to handle it, and on bis
chains two or three helpers strikins
with sledges to do the welding. Tho
iron must be of precisely the righs
heat. and the blows must be quick aau
sure to complete the work perfectly
before the iron cools.
Stud chain is sometimes made oi
iron as small as five-eights OF an inctl
in diameter. from that the iron uset
runs through various diameters up 70
2 inches and more. A 3-ineh chaa1
makes a tremendous cable suitable ior
a five-ton anchor.-New York Tribune.

MANUFACTURE OF CHAINS.
Iron Must Be of Right Heat anc
Blows Quick and Accurate.

The great bulk of chains, including
all cable and mooring chains. are sold
by the pound. The price ranges from
3h to IL cents pound. according -
the size, material, and quality.
All cables and other very heavy
chains are made of Wrought iron. and
there are made wrought iron chains OF
all sizes down to and including chains
of material quarter of an inch in
diameter. but nowadays most of tae
chain used in comparatively smaller
sizes is made of soft steel. such chain
being made in sizes ranging by six
teenths from three -sixtcenths of an
inch to an inch and quarter.
When the size of chain is referred
to by those familiar with chains IL
always means not the link but the
material used in it. Thus Linen
chain would be made of 1-inch steel or
iron. The completed link would be
about five or six times as long and
about three and half times as wide
across as the thickness of the material
of which ii was made.
In other days all chain was hand
made, but the modern is machine
made. There is taken a long bar O.
steel which is bent cold around
mandril that is oval in shape. The
bar is thus bent into what looks like u
spiral spring with its coils not round'
but oblong. This spiral is cut up cold IN
q cutting machine which cuts 1t nto !
many parts as there are coils. each o.
these being the material for a link,
and at the same time the macnine
spreads each of these sections apart q
little at the opening and cuts ON eacl
of the two free ends long scarf or
bevel and bends the ends over within
the opening.
This bent piece of steel is now N
shape, roughly speaking, like letter
JJ with rather long arms and with i's
| two ends bent over inward. IL needs'
Ionly to have those carved ends weld
ed together to make it link OF chan.
The chainmaker sits at foot-opefat :
ed power hammer, with forge beside
him in which he heats the open links.
He takes from the fire link suit
ably heated and hooks 1T into 1he
| chain as far as completed and then
pinches the open ends of the new lni'
| together under the hammer, and with
| three or four quick blows ne weias
| the link together. When he taxes
hot link from the fire he puts a cold
one in. and so he continues to work
lJt is altogether a quick and mora
economical process of manufacture
than hand forging, but it has not ye'
been adapted to chains of the larger
sizes.
There are wrought iron chains o.
some sizes that are machine made, bal
all wrought chains of materials above
an inch and quarter in diameter aFa
hand forged.
! OF whatever size the big chain IS e
be, the workmen cut up the iron bars
into straight lengths, each suitable 70
be made into link. This length OF
iron is heated one end at time, and
one after the other the ends are ham

Lamb and Mutton.

Many experimental studies of the
relative value of different kinds and
cuts ON meat, the losses sustained in
cooking meat in different ways, the
lthoroughness of digestion of meat and
the effect on palatability and economy
OF aiiferent methods of preparing it for
the table, and similar questions have
oeen studied in connection with the
nutrition Investigations of the depart
ment of agriculture.
Mutton and lamb have been widely
used in many countries since early
times as staple foods. In later years
DIR. {. f. Langworthy, chief of nutri-
.ioh Investigations, points out, lamb
has been the more popular in the
United States perhaps because special
attention has been given to raising
iamb for the market and to extending
IT'S season. The whole question is sim
ply one of taste, and mutton in some
form or other has always been staple
and favorite food. That it is whole
some as well as is generally believed
ana this is borne out by inspection
which shows that it is relatively sell
dom that mutton has to be rejected as
unit for food. In composition and nu-
tfitive value mutton is practically the
same as beef and the average loss of
weight in preparing the two kinds of
meat for the table is also practically
the same.
Buying in quantity is recognized as
an economic procedure where the
housewife has facilities for storage
.here are many cases in which side
OF mutton can be economically pur-
chased for home use where side OF
beef is too large for such a purpose.
which implies an economy in the selee-
ton of mutton.
As regards digestibility, there is no
practical difference in beef and mutton,
both being thoroughly assimilated The
Characteristic flavor of mutton is COM

veloped or modified by various meth

the family. That mutton fat can BE-
used in the household in many ways

Which have been made with it.
The ways in which mutton can be
prepared for the table are numerous
All are worthy of a trial, since the
ahiiity to make many dishes with any
given foodstuffs is an easy way of OBJ
tanning desirable variety of diet. The
housewife who wishes to economize
can make many savory dishes from the
inexpensive cuts of mutton.-Indian-

the Pontiff fell i'll. OF necessity the
audience Was postponed. The cardinal
received an invitation to visit the Vat
lean, to-day, and was greatly pleased
that the Pope, was in much better
health than when he saw him in the
beginning of April
The Pontiff expressed profound re-
gret that he had been unable to re-
ceive the American pilgrimage head
ed by Bishop Schrembs of Toledo, al
though he added: Il felt quite well.
but was obliged to comply with the
instructions of the doctors"
Having already remained half am
hour with the Pope Cardinal Falconio
took his leave, fearing that he might
weary the Pontiff but the latter de-
tanned him, observing that he had
been condemned to such long silence
that he felt true pleasure in talking.
