SEARCHLleHTS IN WAR.

an electric cable runs 70 the station

There are several profitable little apiar-

few bees in the attic in nearly every

ACCIDENTAL DISCOVERIES.
Origin of Starch From Corn and of
Silver Plating.

Origin of Starch From Corn and of
Silver Plating.
How TO make starch from corn
Cmaize) was discovered accidentally by
Thomas Kingsford, mechanic. One
day he threw a mess Of cornmeal mush
into garbage pail His wife emptied
some I've into the same pail, and in the
morning when he emptied the pail he
was astonished TO find a small guam
tity of starch at the bottom.
Thomas Bolsover, a Sheffield me
ehanic was mending the handle of a
knife made Of copper and silver. He
saw these metals fuse together and the
idea OF silver plating was born in his
mind. He laid a thin plate Of silver
on O heavier one OF copper and heated
them tin the edge Of the silver began
TO melt. He took them from the fire,
let them cool slightly, then rolled and
hammered them to the desired thick
ness. This was the origin OF sheffield
plate" all OF which was made IN this
way until electroplating was invented

MACHINE GUNS.
These Deadly Weapons Fire Some 700
Bullets a Minute.

Bullets Minute.
The machine gun, which pours forth
direct hail of small caliber bullets, Is
one of the deadliest weapons OF mod
ern warfare,
From the clumsy Calling gun has
come the modern automatic" mount
ed on light tripod, and weighing less
than forty pounds. All the armies use
these guns, which, although they vary
somewhat in type, are essentially alike
I'm their mechanism and in their effec-
tiveness.
In the Benet-Mercie automatic ma
chine gun Of the French army metal
feed strip, or clip. that contains thirty
ordinary army rifle cartridges is in
serted in a slot on the right side of the
gun. AS the trigger is pulled the bolt
mechanism is released and, guided by
the main firing spring, pushes a car
fridge into the rife chamber.
The instant the cartridge is in place
the breech mechanism locks and the
charge Is exploded. On its way through
the rifle barrel little of the gas from
he exploded powder is diverted through
a hole In the side of the barrel, and SO
acts on a piston as to force the bolt
mechanism back and TO compress the
main spring.
In returning. the bolt mechanism
pulls the empty shell from the cham
Der and throws 1t out below, so that
1t does not interfere with the new
cartridge that is now forced in from
above.
The mechanism is so perfect that the
operation described takes place in
small fraction OF a second, and the
bullets issue from the mouth of this
deadly weapon at the rate of seven
hundred a minute.-Yout Com
panion.
