Fire!

To start fire in wet weather locate
sheltered spot. If that is not pos
sible, find an old log, a fiat stone or
decayed stump. Roll the log half over.
This exposes the dry side. Build your
fire against this or against flat stone,
propping up one edge and building the
fire under it. Or gouge out a rotten
stump and build the fire in the cavity.

Sensitive Maasursmant.

Minute bendings of steel bar three
feet long and three and one-half feet In
diameter are accurately measured by a
curious but very sensitive device Of the
United States bureau of standards.
The bar, supported at each end, has a
small mirror fixed at its center, and
above this is frame holding another
mirror partially silvered. AS the light
Of n sodium burner is reflected in each
mirror the lower mirror shows a series
Of black and yellow concentric rings.
A very small weight, even that Of a
pin, defects the bar and causes the cir
cles to expand outward. Each circle
indicates movement of one hundred
thousandth of an inch, the pressure of
a finger, forming five or more new cir
cles, showing bending of one twenty
thousandth of an inch.

Two WAYS to Put IL.

This is how Johnny wrote his COM
position in the public school class:
1.-THE COW Is a good animal She has
two horns and two eyes and gives
milk, which is good to drink. She has
four legs and eats grass and hay. Some
Of them are red, and they have long
tails"
And this is how the teacher says he
ought to have written It:
"The female of the bovine genus Is a
beneficent mammal. This ruminant
quadruped is possessed of corneous
protuberances, projecting from the &C.
ciput. Her vision is binocular, and she
yields an edible and nutritious lacteal
emulation. She is quadrupedal and
herbivorous, assimilating her food in
both the succulent and exiccated states.
Some Of them automatically correspond
to the seventh color Of the spectrum,
and they are endowed with caudal APP
pendages Of exaggerated longitudinal
ity."-Pittsburgh Press.

Trick Of a collaetor.

Collectors are--in short, they are col
loctors. 1t was dealer In antiques not
long ago who was, or professed to be,
n search Of new quarters. He inspect
ed an oldtime mansion fallen upon evil
days. In one room was q carved mar
BILE mantel, an imported piece, and he
opened negotiations to lease the room
which contained 1t. The lease signed,
he told the landlord that he desired q
new mantelpiece put in In place of the
old one. The landlord, of course, de-
INJURED.
IF you don't want to put in a new
mantelpiece will at my own expense"
replied the collector.
That satisfied the landlord.
The fine marble mantelpiece was &C.
cordingly replaced by cheap and
snowy horror and the carved antique
carefully taken down and carted to the
collectors shop, set up there to adj
mirable advantage and eventually sold
to somebody who could afford to pay
the very stiff price asked for it. As for
the room with its new chimney decora-
ton, the collector cannily contrived to
sublet it.-New York Post.

'The ball hit Walker on top of the

by that time and, not seeing the ball In

"The official scorer credited three
