Soldering Aluminium.

When holes appear in aluminium
utensils it Is not necessary to discard
the dishes as no longer useful, for by
a simple method they can be made to
take solder. Insert brass or copper
rivet in the hole. fatten both ends and
then solder over both the inside and
the outside surfaces in the usual man
ner. If you wish to solder a piece to
a sound part of the utensil use sharp
awl to punch holes for holding spots of
copper or brass. If the aluminium is
very thick cut the holes with a small
drill held in carpenters bit brace.

The next morning Karenin got up
early and watched the SUI rise over
the mountains and breakfasted lightly,
and then young Gardener. his secre-

spending Of his day. Would he care to
see people. or was this gnawing pain
within him too much to permit him to
do that?

change to clouds Of light anu drift and
dissolve before the searching rays Of
the sunrise.

A Difficult Surgical Operation

While working about his farm
Kansas man put into his mouth
wire staple, such as is commonly US
ed in building wire fences, being about
an inch long, half an inch wide and
having two sharp points. He acct
IDENTIFY let it slip down his throat and
1T entered his windpipe. Local physi-
clans tried to remove it, but could do
nothing, so, two weeks after the ac-
cident, he went to Pittsburgh sur
geon reputed for his success in sim
liar cases. X-ray photographs which
were at once made showed that
the staple had gone down with
points uppermost, gradually work
downward by ratchet-like move
ment until it had entered the
lower lobe of the lung. Every
breath tended to work it still lower
er but could do nothing toward fore
ing it out because the sharp points
pressing against the walls Of the air
passages, prevented any upward
movement.
A bronchoscope was pushed gent
~ down the patients throat and into
the lung. 1t showed the staple in
the smallest passage it could enter
and with both points hidden in the
mucous membrane which had swol-
len from the irratation. To lift it out
meant the ripping of the bronchial
wall which, would be certain to cause
death and the metal was too stiff
to be bent, sprung or broken as is
often done in similar cases involving
safety pins.
A forked rod was passed through
the bronchoscope and the staple was
worked slightly downward so as to
release the points, after which it was
rotated slightly with forceps. By US
ing side-curved forceps, hooks and
the lip of the bronchoscope the staple
was gradually worked less than half
an inch upward to a point where
there were two suitably spaced ORR
fees of lung passages.
By delicate manipulations the
points of the staple were made to
enter these openings while a gentle
upward lift applied at the bend or
loop made 1t turn over with the bend
upward and the points down. Then
with the bend held against the bron-
choscope, the staple and the instru-
ments were lifed cut. The operation
lasted only little more than an
hour, most of the time being oc-
cupied in the delicate work of rails
ing the staple to place where it
could be turned over without injury
to the delicate tissue lining the bron-
chial passage. Not a drop of blood
was drawn and the lung was not in
jured IN the slightest in the opera
ton.

"Oh, pa, what are those red things
in the bushel basket ?" asked the
small boy of his father as they went
along the street.

"And, O see, pa, there's tin mea-

That" says the father. 'is sup
posed TO be a quart measure in which
they measure the berries"
But, pa, when ma sold some
Strawberries, she measured them in
quart basket. Why doesn't the
grocer"
"Well, you see, my son, there are
two kinds of quarts, dry quart to
sell dry things in and liquid quart
to sell liquids in. The liquid quart
holds ten cubic inches less than the
dry quart so the grocer buys his
cranberries by the dry quart and
sells them by the liquid quart"
"Why does the grocer do that,
pa?"
$50 he can get 3S quarts out of
each 80 quart bushel."
"But, pa, / should think people
would insist on having a dry quart
of cranberries instead of wet one 2"
"They would, my son, if they only
knew the law"
"But, pa, amt it dishonest to sell
persons short quart of cranber-

Today's Poem
IN RATHER RE SQUARE

I'D RATHER BE SOU AXE
I'd like to be rich, and | wonder who
wouldn't.
And yet if it cost me what some peo-
pie pay,
I'd like to be rich and find that l
couldn't.
There's too much worth while that is
lost by the way.
To sacrifice friends and ideals to sur
render
My heart and my conscience, my soul
and my mind
And sell all my dreams for a dollar
marked splendor
Would leave me too poor for the riches
I'd find.
I'd like to be rich there is pleasure in
money
It's good stuff to have, and it's good
stuff TO spend,
1t helps you to pay for your milk and
your honey,
And gives you a chance to be nice to
a friend.
I'd like to be rich, but I'd never be
willing
To pay such a price as some men do
for gold
The cost is too high and the pace is
too killing,
And too many things must be barter
ed and sold.
