My chum WINS an apprentice III the

lunch with him. and then together we
rOamed about the shop, studying the
new machines as well as the old ones.
But one Of the things that strongly
impressed me was his own set OF
"shrinkage" rules l discovered for
the first time TINT every pattern was
made larger than the east was intend
cd to be. as when the pattern was put
into the sand. ana the mold was cast.
the casting came out smaller than the
pattcrn, because of the shrinkagc Of
the cooling metal For cast iron the
rule was made an eighth Of an inch
larger to the foot for brass. three-six-

That nattern makers shrinknge rule
taught me that If my life was to
square itself with the plans laid out
for me by God. so that it would hnr
monize and 1T in with other lives and
plans. my ideal as to what l should

The Box Tortoise.

The box tortoise possesses a slngu-
lar defensive apparatus. The plastron
or shell covering the under part of the
body is so formed that its front seq
ment can be drawn upward to protect
the animals head. the head meanwhile
being drawn back under the carapace
or shell on the back of the tortoise.
The upper and under shells then meet
in front. forming a kind of box in
which the creature is unasSailable.
When the danger is past the reptile
rolaxes a muscle. ana the raised part
Of the plastron falls. allowing the head
and forefeet to come forth. This NOV
able plate is fastened to the plastron
by a strong hinge of elastic ligameDt.

T Temper.

a great source OF cruelty is temper
When it is considered what vast sum
of misery temper causes in the world
how many homes are darkened and how
many hearts are saddened by it; when
we remember that its prosecutions have
not even the purifying consequences of
most other calamities. masmuch as it,
effects upon its innocent victims are
rather cankcrouS than medicinal; when
we call to mind that n bright face and n
bright disposition are like sunshine
in house and gloomy, lowering
countenance as depressing ms an arctic
night, we must acknowledge that tenn
per itself is only another form of cru
city and very bad form tcu.

PURITY AND POWER
Necessary to Overcome Impure Blood
and Weak Conditions.

The recent trying weather, expos
IRE to storms, the grip, hard colds,
pneumonia, fevers, diphtheria and
other blood-poisoning, prostrating
diseases leave the whole system sub
normal-below par-weak and slow
blood depleted and thin, with that
tired feeling, poor appetite, delicate
digestive power or almost none at
al. The ideal treatment is
Hood IS Sarsaparilla-to be taken
before meals-thoroughly to purify
the blood and expel poisons, and
Peptiron Pills-to be taken after
meals-to put power into the blood,
give strength, increase red cor
puscles and restore normal strength
and health-tone.
Hoods Sarsaparilla has for 40
years won and held the favor of the
people as the standard blood purifier.
Peptiron Pills are named from
pepsin and iron-and also include nux
and other blood and stomach tones.
Be wise and begin on this sensible,
reliable course of medicine today.
