But our bubble broke with sudden

And we heard like the trumpet's

Do we come to our deed at last.

The pulse Of horse may be counted
and its character determined at any
point where a large artery is close to
the skin and above a hard tissue, such
as a bone, cartilage, or tendon. The
most convenient place for taking the
pulse is at the jaw. The external max
Hilary artery runs from between the
jaws, around the lower border of the
jawbone, and up on the outside Of the
1awbone to the face. 1t Is located i'm
mediately in front of the heavy mus
Giles of the cheek. Its throb can
be felt most distinctly just before it
turns around the lower border of the

skin over this artery when its pulsa-
lions are to be studied

Big Money in Old Metal.

Farmers now have an opportunity
through the sale of their discarded ele-
ments and machinery to make up for
some of the increased costs of other
materials. Old metal is now worth
more than ever in the history of the
country, but the appeal of Government
to turn it to account is based upon
consideration of patriotism as we'll as
profit. Metal is needed regardless OF
cost and difficulty of assembling.
There are about six million farms in
the United States and few Of them,
it is thought, have accumulated less
than ton of junk of various sorts.
Old mowers and binders to say nothing
of threshing machines, have been rust
ing in the weather for years because
they were not worth taking apart and
hauling to town. Now every pound
has price. The babbitt metal bear
ings in some machines, for example,
contain tin worth more than so cents
a pound Even rusty bolt, with its
thread multilated beyond repair, now
has its value, and the possible amount
of the total is indicated by the fact
that the annual implement bill of the
farmers of the country is $165,O0O,OO0
