A broken steel rod may frequently
be repaired by very simple process.
Usually the ends of the tube where
broken have become somewhat
pinched or distorted. If this is the
case insert the tang Of file or any
other convenient tool In the opening
and by trimming around and around
the circular cross-section can be re-
stored. A pair of pliers judiciously
used may help In this operation. Then
with the file smooth the face of the
break square across. Take a piece
of wire slightly larger than the in
terror Of the tube and file it to a tight
fit. Heat the broken end of the tube
so as to expand 1t slightly. 1t need
not be heated so much as to destroy
the temper. A very moderate heat will
expand 1t considerably. Warm one
end of the prepared wire. Cover II
with bit of solder and while the lat
ter is still soft push the wire down
into the tube for half its length. Re
peat with the other side of the break.
A drop of the solder run around where
the two ends of the break come to-
gether will make all smooth and com
plete the repairs.-Outers Book.

QUEER QUALITY or MoDEsTY
Little Dissertation on One Of the
strangest Attributes Known to the
Human Race.

Modesty Is quality mainly notice
able in folks who would lose by hav-
ing attention called to themselves.
The most modest man we know has
two or three other names on his wait
ing list. and there are, OH so many
places he can't go at all.
Greatness Is characterized by ten
dency to efface oneself. This Is true of
great modesty also. The man we know
who claims the most modesty has one
of the sorts Of modesty that has eff
faced itself so utterly it must be very
great modesty. One wouldn't notice
that mans modesty at all unless ones
attention were called to it, as 1t is sure
to be by the owner thereof.
The girl with ankles too thick or too
thin is modest about them. She doesn't
care much what color of hose she
wears. and she keeps her skirts low.
Also, IL her neck and shoulders are
scrawny she thinks these one-more-
struggle-and-I-a gowns are i'm
modest. In fact, she is sure of II. We
have It on good authority that the
homeliest of the Turkish women are
The ones who manage to maintain the
custom of going about yelled to the
eyes.
Animals are not expected to be mod
est, and think nothing about those
things, so they are comparatively
happy. They escape modesty while
they live and hell when they die.
Some people are not modest about
telling of their ability, but are extreme
ly modest about displaying 1t after
they get the job. Their modesty van
ishes again, temporarily, at each pay
day.
Synonyms for modesty are self-de-
Tense, timidity, lazlness, hope-of-at-
raeting-attention-to oneself by pre-
tending-tO-be-so, etc.
We know absolutely nothing of mod
esty. except by hearsay.

From the Top Of a Hill.

Never shall / forget the panorama
that spread before us! The four thin
ranks of the second company seemed
to stagger drunkenly through sea
of green fire and smoke. One moment
gaps showed In the lines, only to be
closed again as the rear files spurted.
Undoubtedly they ran at top speed,
but to us watchers they seemed to
crawl, and at times almost to stop.
Mixed in with the dark green of the
grass covering the valley were rows
of lighter color, telling of the men who
fell in that mad sprint. The contin-
uous bombardment sounded like a
giant drum beating an Incredibly swift
rata-plan. Along the whole length of
our hill this curtain of shells was
dropping, leveling the forest, and
seemingly beating off the very face Of
the. hill itself, clear down to the bot
tom of the valley. Owing to the prox-
unity of our troops to the enemy's bat
teries, we received hardly any support
from our own big guns, and the role
of the combatants was entirely re-
versed. The Germans had their in
nings then, and full well they worked.

TROOPS move soon
Arrangements Being Made to
Send Iowa Militia to Border
GO WHEN CAVALRY IS FILLED
Orders Received Indicate That caval-
~ and Artillery Are To Move A.
Soon az Cavalry Regiment
Can Be Mustered In.

Camp Dodge.--As soon as thirty
Eve men can be secured to recruit
Iowa's cavalry regiment to full
strength the First cavalry and the
three batteries OF artillery nows at
Camp Dodge will leave for service on
the Mexican border.
Word to this effect has been receiy-
ed from army headquarters in Chicago.
It served to redouble the efforts OF
the recruiting officers to round up
the additional men required to COM
plete the regiment of cavalry. Horses
win be secured on the border
1t is understood that orders for the
movement OF the infantry regiments
will not be issued until after the cav
airy and artillery get away, but word
from Washington left no room for
doubt that the entire Iowa brigade will
be sent to the border within a short
time.
General Mills, chief OF staff, said
