Dents in Hard Mood

Dents in hard wood may be re.
moved, but the process requires time
and patience. Cover the spot with at
least four thicknesses of damp paper.
On them place a hot iron for a mo.
ment. This will raise the denied
wooo, but, OF course, plays havoc with
the varnish. Repeat the process until
the surface is even, then sandpaper
the wood down, rub with alcohol or
varnish and refinjsh the wood. If the
dent is very slight a red hot poker
held above it may be sufficient to re-
move the dent and the varnish may
not be injured below the surface.
Should it be harmed an application of
equal parts of olive Oil, vinegar and
alcohol will restore the finish.

PAYS MILLION DOLLARS
AND GETS TITLE TO ROAD.

Washington, July 5.-One more big
step wa staken in the development by
Uncle Sam of Alaska today when he
paid the final 81, 600 900 for title to the
Alaska Northern Railroad.
Five hundred thousand dollars OF the
million, and a half purchase price was
paid last February.
Today's payment marks the trans
fer of the title to the property from
the original owners to the American
government. From the time of the
first payment until the final payment
today the title has been in the hands
of a trust company here.
This final payment is the forerun-

The AppoaoiaSura.

The appoggiatura or leaning note
(frOm Italian "appoggiare," to lean
upon) is a note of small size placed
before the principal note, its effect
being to take half the time value from
the note which followed it. When
placed before a dotted note it receives
two-thirds of the value of that note,
and if written before a chord, it is
used in place of the upper note of the
chord, which upper note follows after
wards. The appoggiatura was fire.
quently used by Mozart and his on
t~emporaries, but it has gradually gone
into disuse and writer's of the present
day now employ a note of ordinary
appearance, thus showing at once the
value it is to receive.

Using Everything But the squeaI.

SSNhS AhhS AAH "S SA0SdNs
A phase of conservation peculiar
to Germany, says the New York Sun,
is exemplified in the Freibank, or
market, where nothing is offered for
sale except the flesh Of animals very
low in intrinsic value or so much dis
eased that it has to be treated by a
special sort OF cooking in order to be
harmless. Almost every large Ger
man city has its Freibank. The meat
is cut into six-pound pieces, and sub
jected to two hundred and twelve de-
grees Of heat for two hours. The meat
and the blackish liquor extracted
therefrom by the cooking r sold to
poor people to be used IN making soup.
1t can be bought only ut the Freibank,
and no one can buy it without q spe-
cial. permit. Purchasers must also
promise that it is for their W per
sonal use; not nor than six pounds
can be bought at once by any one per.
SON This provision protects the hotel
and. restaurant patrons against the
treated meat and liquor.-Youth's

Your Launh,a rimad-

There are lots of things In the world
that you don't know anything about
and n Of them is that whenever yot
laugh in the theater, there is q stage
manager just out Of sight around the
proscenium. holding q stop-watch OF
you, and trying to time your share in
the performance. He is also timing
you for a record" but that is Incl
dental and one of his pleasures, that
Later he may boast to other stage
managers. His actual business is tt
see how much or how little you play
his farce for him. If you think that q
laugh is a laugh and that ends it-s
mere volatile and fugitive and egg
bullion without form or substance, you
are too much addicted to your W
point Of view. A laugh to the stage
manager is just as integral and sub
stantial a thing as a sack of meal.

Germans Lose 6A.OOO.

London, July 5.-The entire second
position of the Germans on the Somme,
over an extent Of approximately six
miles. has fallen into the hands of the
French. who have captured the village
of Hem. near the northern extremity
OF the line. and have completed their
conquest Of Estrees.
The British line has apparently fall
ed to advance, except slightly in r
tain sectors" as the British war ONCE
puts it. None of the ground gained by
the British has been lost, however. n
the further statement of the British
that the fighting all along the battle
front was mostly in the nature of local
struggles for the possession of strong
points would seem TO indicate that each
side is, devoting particular attention
to the organization OF its positions and
the strengthening of its hand for furth-
er attack or defense.
The number of German prisoners
reported by the British and French has
reached about 10000, while the Ger
man casualties have been u~nof1cially
estimated at $4,000. On their part, the
Germans report the taking Of a con-
siderable number of British soldiers.

cuItfvatina Amusements.

Don't provide inducements to get a
child to love amusements. 1t may en-
courage a habit that will sadly in
terfere with a sincere and useful life.
Don't make a boy feel that he cannot
waste too much time in having fun
and catering to his senses. Life is
real and earnest, and amusement is
admissible at times, but should not be
the rule. The manly youth is for fun,
but he is not always engaged in striv-
ing for his own pleasure. He should
not be educated into that idea of life.
He should not be furnished with incli-
nations away from what is true and
real in life. 1t is a serious matter,
Eampering with q youths nobler as
pfrations. Providing amusement is apt
to prove an unnatural adjunct In edu-

Slightly Repaired.

AS the tourist walked along a quiet

have there" he began. cay, it u.s." re-
piled the cottager, pausing in his la
bOrs. "Aince it belanged to the great
Sir William Wallace himself" "In-
deed!" exclaimed the tourist in sur
prise. 81 should not have thought it
was as old as that" "Aweel," came the
cautious reply, "ye ken it's had twa

Heine's Monument in Paris.

Paris has it's monument to Heinrich
Heine. 1t is at the tomb of the 'liber-
ated Prussian," in the cemetery OF
Montmartre. But no more, as former
Iy, does the little basin at the foot of
the pedestal contain the cards of Wis
itors. 1t was German tourists who had
the custom of depositing their cards
there when they went to the tomb of
the poet, a pilgrimage recommended
by Baedeker. 1t was quite rare that
a week should pass without many new
cards ornamented with German names
to add to the heap that had accumu-
lated in preceding weeks. Today there
is not a single card. In the little basin
where the winter leaves a little rain,
the birds come to drink. One might
conclude from this like the project of
police, that there are no more Ger
mans in Paris. But this without doubt
would be an error.

He Didn't Understand.

She was a peerless, and fondly imag-
ined that she looked the part as she
entered the little chemists shop in a
remote village, and asked for a rough
washing glove. She believed in plenty
OF friction being good for the com
plexion. The chemist brought out a
boxful of washing gloves and showed
her one or two. f'They're not rough
enough" said her ladyship, despair
ingly. So the man rummaged care
fully through the box. At last he held
one out to her and exclaimed trium-
phantly: This is just the thing,
ma'am. T1atn get the dirt of nicely!"
