Ny grandma's spectacles are queer:
It's almost like q game.
She says she has two pairs OF them,
Although they look tho same.
Ono pair makes tiny things seem Big
Enlarged" she says it's called
The other makes big things seem smaLI;
s'pose they are enEnalled.

Ways seems to know
Just when to see things pretty small
and when to make EN- grow!
Some days folk think I'm 'auisitive
And bother round q lot; n
Her specs just twinkle 40 she 'spla1ns.
''she's such q little tot!"
But when she gives me gingerbread
Or cookies for Q treat
She says, IA great big girl like you
Needs lots and lots to eat!" +
I saved some Chocolates for her once
Some teeny little ones.
She said I was ian anger an
They looked ''as big as buns!"
But when I dropped my mug n made
A big spot On the mat.
She said, ut won't be seen at all,
A little thing like that"

to buy two pairs
OF spectacles for father. the kind my
grandma wears.

It was the remark of a distin-
guished senator that Henry Clay's
eloquence was absolutely intangible
to delineation and that to be under
stood it must be seen and felt. He
was an orator by nature. His eagle
eye burned with patriotic ardor OF
flashed Indignation and defiance
upon his foes or was suffused with
tears of commiseration or Of pity.
and it was because he felt that he
made others feel. A gentleman aft
er hearing one of his magnificent
efforts i'll the senate thus described
him: "Every muscle of the orators
face was at work. His whole body
seemed ~agitated, as if each part
was instinct with a separate life.
The appearance of the speaker
seemed that of a pure intellect
wrought up to its mightiest energies
and brightly shining through the
thin and transparent veil of flesh
that invested it."

A Little Girl Heroine.

A Little Girl Heroine.
In the outskirts of Chicago lives q
little girl, Esther Kuspeloer, who re-
Gently performed as brave a feat as
even the most courageous man might
have done. In walking near the rail-
road tracks the twelveyear-old girl
saw three boys crouched on the tracks.
They seemed to be digging, and after
they jumped and a she went over to
see what they had been up to. There.
beneath the ties, under one Of the rails.
were two pieces of dark string sticking
up with sparks sputtering from them.
Knowing that within a few minutes
one of the many passenger trains
would be coming, this courageous lit
tie girl rapidly dug down through the
loose earth with which the boys had
covered the dynamite. pulled it out.
threw it on the grass and then stamp
ed out the sparks. But for the girls
prompt act when she suspected that
1t was dynamite and her disregard of
her own danger the officials say it ia
very probable scores Of passengers
would have been killed or hurt.

What \. Meant

During the concert a man who
really appreciated music for its own
sake was greatly annoyed by q young
fop in front Of him who kept talk
ing to the girl at his side. "What
a nuisance" finally exclaimed the
appreciative man.
DO you refer to me, sir?:" threat
eningly demanded the fop.
"Oh, no! / meant the musicians.
They keep up such a noise with
their instruments that ! can't hear
half your brilliant conversation.

The aim of scientific forestry is to
bring the forest up to its highest state
Of productiveness and keep it there.
In the United States, where forestry Is
not practiced except on government
and state lands, and there only during
the last few years, the estimated an
nual production is twelve cubic feet
per acre. In SaxoEy. where forestry
has been practiced for many years.
the annual production is ninety-threc
cubic feet per acre. If u final forest
area Of 45O,OOO.O 900 acres is made to
yield an average Of fifty cubic feet per

scientific methods. there would be

seftsnina Rust.

.YNI. Sott0nin9 Rust.
A simple method for removing rust
consists in dipping the article first into
a strong hot potash bath for about
half an hour and then immersing in a
cold muriatic acid picking solution
composed Of two parts of water to one
Of acid. This removes the rust in a
few minutes, leaving the metal appar-
emily attacked but very little. The pre-
vious soaking in the strong hot potash
solution is responsible for this rapid
picking, MS a test proved. for without
the previous dipping sixty-ive minutes
were required by the acid bath against
four minutes when previously treated
In the potash bath. Apparently achem-
ical reaction is set up. changing the
character OF the rust. softening It and
making It readily soluble.-Blacksmith
