HOW WOUNDS HEAL.
Natures Processes Play a Large Part
In the Operation.

Natures Processes Play a Large Part
In the Operation.
Few people have any Idea OF the
wonderful process BY which wounds
heal. Stitching. dressing, etc., are im-
portant operations. but none OF them
can make good the damage or replace
the loss of tissue In wound This Is
the work of our good friends In the
blood. the white corpuscles, the "scav.
engers." so called because they destroy
disease germs.
When wound Is made, bone
broken, nerve torn, ETC., 1t Is chiefly
by these corpuscles finding their way
out of the blood vessels into the sur.
rounding tissues that the injuries by
bullet or bayonet are repaired. The
union of broken bones, nerves. skim
ETC., is effected by the corpuscles find.
ing their way into the coagulated
blood which surrounds the injured
parts
They throw out what are called
processes" become fixed and join
each other. A new tissue is thus form.
ed. which becomes endowed with blood
vessels. Fibers follow. and these serve
to keep the torn tissues of the wound
in what is surgically called "Opposi
ton"
In this tissue. in the case of broken
bone, bone salts are deposited; where
nerves have been torn by bullet nerve
fibers grow. and so on. These fbers
in the course of healing contract. and
1t is by that power of contraction that
the edges of wound are brought to-
gether and united.-Pearson Weekly

UNCLE SANS NAVAL. EXPERT.
One Who Does Nothing but Play With
Toy BattIeships,

In long, low building down near the
river in Washington there is man
VII" plays with toy ships on a toy
ocean. And as result of his play he
can foretell exactly how the big battle.
ships of the United States navy will
behave in storm ut sea, and he can
predict to nicely how much horse
power will be needed to drive the
great Transatlantic liners laden with
their passengers and freight. He does
this before even the keels of the ships
have been laid down.
He is a naval constructor in the
United States navy. and the toy ocean
on which he works is the United States
experimental model basin. The sheet
OF water in the basin is 500 feet long
and fifty feet wide, with maximum
depth of fourteen feet
But in this limited space the naval
expert, working with wave maker, a
dynamOmeter, towing bridge and
other apparatus, can solve all the me-
chanical problems connected with the
construction Of ship, its probable
roll when struck by giant waves and
the horsepower needed in its tremen-
dous engines to drive it through the
water. He works with wooden models
twenty feet long. Some of them weigh
1000 pounds, none of them more than
1000. The other countries Of the
world use parafIine models, but he
works entirely with the miniature
ships of wood.
The drawings and plans of the bat
tleships to be built by Uncle Sam are
turned over to the constructor by the
navy departments bureau Of construc-
ton and repair. In little shop ad-
joining the building which covers the
model basin the models are made and
painted Bags of shot. each weighing
twenty-five pounds, are kept on hand
to bring the model up to the corre-
spending weight of the big ship. The
final tests are made in the TOY ocean"
near by.-Popular Magazine.

UNSEEN COMPANIONS.
FamiIiars That Are Born and Dwell In
Our lmaginations.

Real men and women are not the
only people. Our minds are inhabited
as truly as any other country. Every
child has his invisible playmate, to
whom he talks more freely than to his
parents and with whom he goes upon
strange adventures--a tiny Columbus,
with whom he embarks upon the wa
ters Of the bathtub to discover a new
land, or rowing De Soto, with whom
he slips through the garden gate unat-
tended and unafraid, always before he
is three years old, bent upon an excur-
sion into the wilderness which lies
across the brook in the field or In the
woods.
If you are the father or mother Of
this child you never can understand
that-how the timid baby who was
never before out of your sight could
have gone so far alone. Why. when
you found him, stained with his trav-
els, very tired, almost nodding, he was
still confident, preoccupied and bent
upon further pilgrimage into the un-
known. 1t is because he was not
alone. He was accompanied by an
other whom he knows better than he
will ever know father or mother, one
of those companions of his own fancy
about whom he never tells you or any
one else.
These people grow up like other peo

and the young man his his ideal, al
ways a woman-not the one he marries
nor even the one he might have mar

presence who never forsakes him. And
when he grows old and the wife he
did marry grows old she remains young.

The Big Gray Car
Buyers Told
Right Method

Advice to merchants, business men
and housewives of Oregon on how to
buy is given by the office of the state
sealer of weights and measures, in a
booklet issued recently. The book
was compiled by f. G. Buchtel, dep
uty sealer of weights and measures.
Business men, wholesale and retail
merchants ascertain where they can
purchase goods of a certain quality
at the lowest price," says Mr.. Buch-
tel. "They order a specified quantity
or amount as precaption against
either carelessness or mistakes.
Your merchant will appreciate your
using this same care and thought in
your dealings with him. He may,
with no dishonest intent or motive,
make a mistake, or his employees may
become careless. If so, he wants to
know it and a word will rectify mat
ters. IT, however, mistakes continue,
this office wants to know it, that an
investigation may be made and the
conditions causing the same eliminat-
ed.
"The women of the state are as a
rule the purchasing agents for the
household, and they should use the
same care in buying commodities for
daily consumption as they would in
purchasing the material for a dress.
For instance, a woman would not
order SO worth of silk for dress,
but she would ascertain the exact
amount of silk needed, and then or
der a specified number of yards and
parts of a yard, if necessary, and
this method should be followed in
making all purchases.
"Do not order by the package or
/ bottle or sack or piece or money
value for this tells the merchant
nothing and is meaningless to him
and is practically inviting him to be
careless; forces him to decide upon
the quantity you want, which is un-
fair to the merchant and unbusiness-
| like on your part. Order in specific
amounts; the merchant then knows
exactly what you want and will use
care in seeing that the correct
amount as ordered is delivered"
Sealer Buchtel urges that wood
should be bought by the cord or
fractions of a cord, as ordering by
the load is meaningless. Under the
law the purchaser is entitled to know
the correct measure of the wood de-
livered. The law also specifies that
wood must be well piled.
In purchasing package goods the
buyer is advised to ascertain the
amount that the package contains
and then compare it with the guam
tity obtained by the expenditure OF
like sum for bulk goods"
In buying berries the law entities
the purchaser to receive a box level
