HOW SHOT ARE MADE.
And Why the Pure Lead Has to Be
Tempered With Tin.


The manufacture of shot. described
by o. c. Horn in Forest and Stream.
requires Il high tower. a perforated pan.
a tank of water and tempered lead.
Shot are made by dropping molten
lead from a high point to the earth
The lead forms into globules just as
the raindrops do when they fall from
the clouds. Ordinarily we do not real
ize that raindrOps are little spheres.
but under the proper conditions they
freeze. and we have hailstones. which
may be called shot made of ice.
IL the making of shot pure lead is
melted and mixed with temper
that consists mainly of tin. and then
poured into a perforated pan or sieve.
The perforations vary according to
the size of the shot to be made.
A temper is mixed with the lead in
order to make the globules form when
the lead falls. If pure lead were used
it would fail in the form of little bars
instead of round shot
In order that the globules may have
pleaty of time TO form the lead must
fall long distance, and so towers are
built The towers used to be made as
high as 200 feet and even more, but
modern towers are rarely over $50 feet.
The perforated pan into which the
molten lead is poured is at the top of
the tower, and the globules of lead fall
through the perforations into tanks of
water at the bottom of the tower. The
water cools them and also prevents
them from flattening out, as they
would if they fell on a solid floor.
From the water the shot go to steam
driers. After drying the perfect shot
are separated from the imperfect by
means of glass tables inclined enough
SD that the shot when poured ON at one
end of the table, will roll to the other
end At the farther end of the table
are two cutters side by side. The i'm
perfect shot roll slowly and with diff
Guilty, so that they have not enough
momentum to carry them beyond the
first gutter. The perfectly round shot
roll easily and swiftly, and when they
reach the foot of the table they jump
nimbly across the first gutter and land
in the second.
After separation the perfect shot are
polished by rolling in plumbago. and
workmen then put them in bags for
| shipment or send them direct to the
cartridge filing department to be load
| cd into shells.

War Upon Pain.

Pain is a visitor to every home and usually it comes quite un- expectedly. But you are pre- pared for every emergency ii you keep a small bottle of Sloan Eminent handy. It is the greatest pain killer ever discov- cred. Simply laid on the skin no rubbing required-it drives the pain away. It is really wonderful.
 Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal, writes: "Last Saturday, after tramping around the Pana- ma Exposition with wet feet, l came home with my neck so stiff that 1 couldn't turn. 1 applied Sloan's Liniment freely and went to bed. To my surprise, next morning the stiffness had almost disappeared, four hours after the second application was as good as new"

Sciatica's Piercing Pain.

To kill the nerve pains of Sciatica you can always depend on Sloan's Liniment. It pene- trates to the seat of pain and brings ease as soon as it is ap- piled. A great comfort too with Sloan's is that no rubbing is re- quired. Sloan's Liniment is in- valuable for stopping muscular or nerve pain of any kind. Try it at once if you suffer with Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sore Throat, Pain in the Chest, Sprains, Bruises, etc. It is ex- cellent for Neuralgia and Head ache. 25c. at all druggists. advt

the General Government for the protection of the legitimate in dustries of the country.

We would suggest as a solu- tion to the tramp problem. in connection with the prepared ness question, that all able bod jed tramps going about the country begging. be given their choice of going, immediately, to work or join the army. If this plan was made compulsory, a huge army, for defense, would soon be made up, as these ho- boes would never adopt the worI end of the line Then the feeding of them would fall upon the Government, instead oi indi- viduals, as is now the case. In this way we would not be out one cent, and at the same time we would have the tramp out of our way; for our portion of the Government tax would be no more than the tramps begs us out of. By recruiting the army in this way, the man who works could be left at home to do so, and the feeding of the tramp army would exploit a field for the disposal of his produce Such plan would work well all round, and we see no good reas- on why it should not be entered ,nfn
