Pottery and Secrecy.

In the royal mandatory of pottery
at Meissen, SaXOny, the work was for
merry carried on with the utmost Sc
crecy to prevent the processes from
becoming known elsewhere. The es-
adjustment was complete fortress,
the portcullis of which was not raised
day or night, no stranger being per
mitted to enter for any purpose what
ever. Every workman, even the chief
inspector. was sworn to silence. This
injunction was formally repeated every
month to the superior officers employ
ed, while the workmen had constantly
before their eyes i'll large letters the
warning motto. BE Secret Unto
Death" 1t was we'll known that any
person divulging the process would be
imprisoned for life in the castle of
KOenigstein. Even the king himself
when he took strangers of distinction
to visit the works was enjOined to Sc
crecy. One of the fOremen, however,
escaped and assisted in establishing a
mandatory in Vienna, from which
the secrets spread all over Germany.

SCOTS Romantic Homo.

If any other literary man ever owned
a home more magnificent than AbbOts-
ford, the romantic palace of Sir Walter
Scott, the globe trotters haven't heard
Of it. From everywhere in Scotland
came stones and carvings and metals to
adOrn it, and the construction Of Alb
botsford went on slowly and fantas-
bcally, after the fashion Of rambling
cathedral Scott became the sheriff of
the county, the kings local representa-
tive, and delighted to have the place
always crowded with guests. The
armory and the drawing room are so
rich In curios that many visitors de-
scribe AbbOtsfOrd as the most interest
ing museum in Scotland. The novel
lists study and his library are just as
he left them. The 10000 books which
bank the walls of these two rooms
from the floors to the beams Of the cell
ings did not lose their usefulness at
his death. To persons with the proper
credentials they are available for cir
culation.-C. 2. Gushing in Travel

The Measure of a Man.

At meeting at which a prominent
modern statesman, who is short in sta
ture. was to speak the local chairman,
endeavOring to be witty, observed that
he was somewhat disappointed about
the politicians physical proportions.
Il had heard so much about this gen.
tleman," he said, that l naturally ex-
pected to meet a big man in every
sense, but. as you see for yourselves,
he is very small" Many an orator
would have been upset by such an I'M
fortunate beginning to the proceedings,
but not so this one. Il am grieved to
find" he said, with mock seriousness,
that your chairman is disappointed
in my size, but this is owing to the
way you have here of measuring a
man. In my part of the kingdom we
measure a man from his chin up, but
you evidently measure him from from
his chin down."

In the dough from which bread is
made there is a lot of sugar. which
contains carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
1t is necessary to ferment this sugar to
make bread edible. and yeast is used
because it has the power to do this. 1t
is made from Il plant having this quail
ity. Fermenting sugar is equivalent to
burning it. and there are two results.
One is the formation of carbOnic acid
gas. A great deal of this gas is caught
in the dough in the form of large or
small bubbles, and some of it escapes
into the air. The part that cannot es-
cape causes the dough to rise and
makes the bread light. The holes in
bread are the little pockets which held
the carbonic acid Gas. The effect Of
the bubbles is to lift the body of dough
SO that the heat can penetrate readily
and bake it properly.

A DEER TALE

A J. Plummer, of Crandon. who is
logging this winter for the Forster
Mueller Lumber Co, in town of Hiles,
called Saturday to tell the Repu bill
can man a deer story. He said that
a few days ago he and his wife were
driving along a road near his camp
when a big doe walked into the road
ahead OF his horse and stopped. The
horse became frightened at the deer
which kept standing in front of it
despite Mr.. Plummer'S shouts.
Plummer got of the rig and threw a
rock at the deer; the deer walked
over and smelled of the rock, but
wouldn't leave. He fired a few more
stones at the deer, which finally
walked away. Plummer thinks the
deer must have heard Of the new law

MERGED INTO ONE.
Merrill Railway & Light
ing Co.

For year or more, negotiations
have been under way to merge the
Wausau Street Railroad and the
Merrill Railway & Lighting companies.
This has finally been accomplished
and the past week the two companies
were consolidated under the one man.
agement of the Wausau Street Rail
road company. Nothing, in the opin-
ion of all concerned, could have been
done that would have been more
beneficial to both companies. 1t will
give them the benefit Of all the
electric power generated from Merrill
to MOsinee by the various WATERFOWL
ers. 1t means bigger and better
facilities for both Merrill and WauSau.
One thing it unites both cities in
closer relations; it means that by the
cooperation Of the business men Of
both cities, great institutions can be
brought to these cities, and, in fact,
the twenty miles between the two
cities made to hum with industries
operated by the electric power which
can be furnished by the consolidated
conn anies. 1t is the purpose of the
company to at once connect Merrill
transmission line such as is now con-
Meeting Wausau with the Rothschild
and MOsinee powers; this assures the
transmission of power wherever
wanted in case of floods or accident.
WauSau found this invaluable during
the 1912 flood, when power was trans
mitted from Mosinee to both Roths-
child and Wausau. The company
own the Trappe Rapids on the Wis
consin river, which will furnish a
large power. This power is located
nearly midway between the two cities
and has a 20-fOot fall.
| At Merrill, the intention is to make
extensive Improvements giving that
city one Of the best and most up-tO-
date plants in the country and with
the Harvesting Of the Trappe rapids
there will be no lack of electric
power to operate anything which may
! locate along the line or in either OF
the cities. Offices will be maintained
in both Merrill and Wausau, the same
as at present.
Other things are in the range OF
| possibilities: the Wausau Street Rail
road company own all the water
power in Wausau. A great part of it
| is undevelOped. A dam may be
erected across the main river which
will vastly increase power. 1t also
owns the right-of-way, paralleling the
track Of the St. Paul Railroad com
| pany between Wausau and Merrill
and the interurban line which has
long been talked of may become q
reality.
No doubt all these things will be.
come realities in the future. 1t is
the opening wedge for making the
Wisconsin Valley, between MOsinet
and Merrill a beehive of industry
1t will take vast amount of money
to bring this project up to the state
of efficiency desired, but there are
men interested in both cities fully
capable of working it out successfully
and they will do it. But it is up tC
both cities to assist the company in
every way as its success means vast
business increase and growth to Wau-
sau and Merrill and along the river
between.
Its consolidation is the most i'm
portant transaction ever brought
about in the history of the two cities
for their growth and prosperity.

LIGHT and Sound and Glass.

Why doesn't the closed window shut
out light just as much as it shuts out
sound? Both light and sound travel
through the air, and their waves come
in contact with the glass. The light,
after it has gone through the window,
seems just as strong or stronger, while
the sound seems ever so much weaker.
Why is it? Many of us have wonder
ed. The reason is that light is not a
wave of air. while sound is Light is
a wave in the ether which is in the
glass as we'll as in the air. 50 that light
in passing through glass still has its
natural path of ether. But when sound
waves strike the window glass they
must put the glass into vibration, and
the glass in turn must make the air
inside vibrate. All this lessons the
strength of the sound waves. and they
reach our ears capable of producing g
less startling effect than are the light
waves which reach our eyes.
