CALIFORNIA RANCHER HAS
NEW USE For OVERLAND

Pumping flood water off an area
of more than FIVE acres, a raacher's
automobile demonstrated the value
OF the family car for all kind of
unusual service.
}, l.. Luck, who has a ranch near
Los Angeles, Calf, also has the
luck to own an Overland car. and
when the floods covered his prop
erty this year. he saved time. mon
ely and hard labor by adapting his
machine to the emergency.
The device was homemade. ard
his own idea. The pump was laid
flat and equipped with ID inch
pipe and handle, which was
designed for the employment of two
husky men.
Pumping by hand however was
seen to be a long and back break
ing job, so Mr.. Luck rugged up
shaft connecting the pump handle
with the automobile A rear wheel
was lacked up and a hardwood
block clamped to the rim. bolts be-
ing run through the space between
the spokes to a block on the other
side of the wheel.
To this attachment, the shaft was
boltei and the engine was started.
The speed at which the rear wheel
ran would make a rate on the road
OF about five miles an hour, and
this kept the pump handle working
backward and forward at regular
and effective pace
Three or four days pumping
drained the pool which had form
"a about the ranch house, the wat
er being carried across an elevated
road to stream on the other side.

There's no reason why a person

1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid

Children and grown folks can take

A WISE Sri.r.

In deciding 10 have the city gchoplH

year the Albuquerque school board
has taken a long step In tho right di-
rcction with teachers paid for the
year with hundreds Of thousands Of
dollars invested in buildings and
equipment. with many hundreds Of
children of school age who have moth
ing to do except forget what they
learned during tho ordinary school
term. II is the shecrcst waste on the
part Of the cities ana towns of the
country not to have all the year
around schools.

city to Build Homes.

The city of st. John. N. B., IL pre-
pairing to enter the housing business
for the benefit of the workmen of the
city. The first step was taken at q
recent meeting Of the common coun-
Gil, when bill giving the city the re-
quired power, was approved and or
dered to be forwarded to the legisla-
ture.
The bin gives the city power to ex-
propriate lands as they may be re-
CURED and to erect houses suitable for
the homes of working men. 1t pro-
vides for the issuing of bonds to cover
the cost of purchase and erection and
sets forth an easy-payment scheme un-
der which the properties may be &C
quired by the citizens.
The plan suggested is a payment Of
10 or Is per cent of the ultimate cost
when possession is taken and the bal
ance to be paid in monthly Install
ments, such payments to be arranged
to include interest at per cent on
the balance outstanding.

curIosItIes Of AntItoxins,

One Of the latest discoveries in the
field of antitoxins has been given the
name of anaphylaxis; 1t was made dur
ing experiments in injecting into dog
minute doses of poison secreted by
sea anemones. The first dose produced
very little effect on the dog; it was fol-
lowed three weeks later by a similar
dose. The experimenter found to, his
surprise that the second dose was
fatal; the first dose had rendered the
animal much more, instead of less.
sensitive to the poison. 1t was found
later that IL an injection into an ami
NAL of even so harmless substance
as white of egg is followed after three
weeks by second injection, the re-
suit Is fatal; but IL the first injection
is followed by further doses at inter.
walls Of week there Is no bad result.
The cause of this curious fact is not
known; but since 1t was discovered
medical men have been very careful
not to allow too long an interval to
elapse between two doses of any al.
luminous compound.-Sir William
Ramsay, in Youths Companion

viii Use Old Tin Cans.

Among the recent patents filed in
England is the process for removing
the solder, tin and chemicals from
scrap and galvanized articles and for
utilizing the base metals. The inven-
tor is South Wales tinplate worker,
who has already secured contracts
from several municipalities for treat
ing down refuse such as tin cans, con-
tainers and similar metallic waste
products.
Formerly large quantities of old tins
were taken by continental dealers,
practically at the cost o. carriage. to
be utilized in manufacturing cheap ar
ticles such as toy soldiers, novelties,
mechanical toys, and large assert
ment Of nondescript articles usually
found in penny bazaars, etc. The usual
process in manufacturing such goods
only necessitated a simple cutting or
stamping and light coating of enamel
or paint.
