FIRST GAS BURNER.
Origin of Gas Jet Traced to Woman's
Thimble.

A woman's thimble is said to have
been the means of suggesting the
first gas burner, says the Popular
Science Monthly for August. Will
liam Murdock, the inventor, first
burned the gas simply as a flame
from the end of a pipe. One day in
an emergency he wished to stop thu
illumination. Hurriedly looking
around for something, Murdock seiz-
ed his wife's thimble and thrust it
over the light, which was immediate
ly extinguished. There was a strong
odor of gas, however, and the expert
menter applied a light to the thin
BILE, discovering that it was full OF
holes, through which tiny jets OF
fame appeared. The Importance OF
the result was that the illumination
from those two or three tiny jets
was much brighter than had been
given by the great flare from the
end of the pipe. Acting on the prin-
ciple which this chance discovery re-
vealed, he constructed what was
known as the Cockspur burner.

deadly work. Often charges are
used that weigh from 200 to 400
pounds, declared Mr.. Irwin, when
the largest guns of war are fired.
Mr.. Irwin, who is in charge Of the
gun cotton laboratory at Hopewell,
has the task of inspecting and test
ing the manufactured gun cotton, and
though the work be considered very
dangerous by the outsider, careful
preparedness against accident has
rendered the work comparatively
safe.
The Hopewell plant represents
many million dollars expenditure and
was one of the most quickly erected
plants of it's kind in the world. The
big contracts for ammunition seem
on the eve of slowing up now that
the nations have better organized
their home resources.
Mr.. Irwin is much interested in
the plan to extract nitrogen from the
air, as he states that were the sup
ply of nitrates from Chill cut off,
this country would be without means
of making ammunition, unless the
nitrogen-from-air process is made
more efficient and cheaper, though
under stress this source may be capa-
BILE of meeting the demands, as it
has done in Germany, which, says
Mr.. Irwin, is now securing it's pow
der material, so far as nitrogen is
concerned, entirely from the atmos-
phere. This field is fine one for
experiment and much is looked for
from this source in the near future

Uric oAcfd POISONING !

The most eminent physicians recog-
nize that uric acid stored up in the system
is the cause of rheumatism, that this uric
acid poison is present In the joints, mus
Giles, or nerves. BY experimenting and
analysis at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute In Buffalo, n. y, DIR.
Pierce discovered combination of native
remedies that he called Anure which
drives out the uric acid from the system,
and in this way the pain, swelling and In
flammation subside. Ii you are a sufferer
from rheumatism, backache, pains here
or there, you can obtain Anurc at any
drug store and get relief from the pains
and ills brought about by uric acid or
send DR.. Pierce 10c, for trial pkg. Anuric
which you will find many times more
potent than lithia and eliminates uric
acid as hot water melts sugar. A short
trial will convince y0lt.
Anuric is regular insurance and life
saver for all big meat eaters and those
who deposit lime-saits in their joints.

sidewalks, to the younger children, and particularly those who recelVcd new skates fom Santa Claus. the Ice storm was a source of genuine dc- light and neighbors who early sanded their walks were termed as grouches by the young folks. New skates ana new sleds found the slippery walks an ideal place for exercise.
 Numerous people slipped ana fell on the slippery walks and paVements, but no serious injuries have been re- ported. One near-sighted man, walk ing down West Main street, stepped into the First Baptist churchyard to read the church notices on the bulle- tin board ReSuming his walk down. town he slipped and fell fiat on his back. His ejaculations had nothing to do with what he had just been reading. A woman shopper also fell down. She had just purchased two dozen eggs at the market price and thought the fall a costly one. Falling was not confined to the human beings entirely, for horses too had their troubles, as did the drivers.
