POPULAR MECHANICS
Iron of Olden Days.

There seems to be no doubt that the
metal produced previous to the intro
duction of modern methods was supe-
rior in its resistance to c~orrosion to the
present day product. l have seen vari-
Gus iron articles. especially nails, which
showed far less rust after an exposure
of a hundred years or SO than the mod
ern variety does in a few weeks. One
article. an old flint lock pistol. was es-
pecially interesting. 1t vas found by
a friend in u patch of woods in Yer
mont and had evidently laid there for
many years, since a piece Of newspa-
per with the date 1896 had been used
as wadding in loading it. All the iron
parts were rather rough and pitted and
covered with rust, but the arm a in
surprisingly good shape considering
the conditions to which it had been
subjected. The spring. hammer and
trigger were still capable Of perform
ing their functions. and very little eff
fort was required to put the old weap-
on in decidedly %presentable condition.

On some Of these little farms re-

how the accident occurred will

subject to some kind of spells, it
10 thought she might have had Que
of these spells and fell in the fire.
The body was found by a IL Ugh

once. Mrs. Troutman's body lay
on the back porch, partly in the
kitchen door, with her clothing
about ell burned off. Mr.. Sifford
discovered that the Q was a coll
siderable amount of smoke in the
house. About tbs time Johu D.

went in and it was found that q
piece of ol,thing lay on *he floor
burning, the door also caught
from this and a small hole was
burned in the floor. From Rll in.

have fallen in the fire aud the

the back porch where che kept a
