x-RAY FINDS HIDDEN FAULTS IN
WOOD AND METAL

Though the X-Ray has been work
ing its way to a position of indispen-
stability in t he surgical field for some
"a years, it's great value to industry
is just beginning to be appreciated.
An outstanding example of its useful
ness as an Inspector of superhuman
powers was afforded recently in Eng
land during an examination of new air
craft, as related in the September Pop
lar Mechanics Magazine. photographs
in this case revealed serious defects
of material and workmanship that no
amount of visual study could have re-
vealed. In a wooden spar of three lam
nations, the middle, and hidden, sec
ton was shown to contain two knots
and a grub hole When the hollow box
strut was X-Rayed, the strengthening
block in the end was plainly seen to
be rot only badly fitted, but actually
split by it's fastening crews 1t was
also made obvious that a wood skid
had been cut too short for it's socket,
and the resulting empty space had
been filled with packing. Even the
faulty riveting along the seam of a
steel gasoline tank 'came to light" in
the photograph, as we'll as a defect in

WORDS FROM HOME
Statements That May Be Investigated
Testimony of Grenada Citizens

When a Grenada citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and his
neighbours of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The statements
of people residing in far away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind that
backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such tes-
timony is convincing. Investigation,
proves it true. Below is a statement OF
a Grenada resident. No stronger proof
of merit can be had.

800 Lynch Street, says: when used
Doan's Kidney Pills about two years

He left me and I went over to Mir. Wright's.
 They told me that he was cutting corn in the back lot, where l found him.
 "Mr. Dunkelberg came this morning and wanted to buy me some new clothes and boots," said. .-.
 The senator stopped work and stood looking at me with his hands upon his hips. .. .- ,-.-...
 @I wouldn't let him do 1t If l were you" he said thoughtfully.
 Just then I saw a young man come running toward us in the distant field. MT. Wright took out his compass. .
 Look here," he said, you see the needle points due north" He took a lodestone out Of his pocket, and holding 1t near the com pass moved 1t back and forth The needle followed 1t.
 The young man came up to us breathing deeply. Precipitation was rolling of his face. He was much ex- cited and spoke with some difficulty.
 Senator Wright" he gasped, Mrs. Wright sent me down to tell you that President Van Buren Is St the house"
 I remember Yivldly the look of mild amusement In the senator's face and the serene calmness with which be looked at the young man and said to him:
 'Tell Mrs. Wright to make him com fortsble in our easiest chair and to say to the president that I shall be up directly"
 To my utter surprise he resumed his talk with me as the young man went away.
 You see all ways are north when you put this lodestone near the needle" he went on. If 1t Is to tell you the truth you must keep the lode stone away from the needle. It's that way, too, with the compass of your soul, partner. There the lodeStone Is selishness, and with its help you can make any direction look right to you and soon-you're lost.",
 He bound the last bundle and then we walked together toward the house, the senator carrying his sickle.
 'T shall introduce you to the presi- dent" he said as we neared our des- tination. "Then perhaps you had bet ter leave .us."

 "What shall I say when-when you introduce mel"
 ooh, say anything you want to say" he answered with a look of amuse- ment.
 "Pm kind O scared" I said.
 "You needn't be-he, was once a poor boy just like you."
 "JuSt like me!' repeated thought fully, for while I had heard good deal of that kind of thing in our home, it had not, somehow, got under my jacket, as they used to say.
 "JuSt like yOu-cOwhide and all--- the son of q small freeholder In Kin derhook on the Hudson," he went on. But he was well fed in brain and body and kept his heart clean. So of course he grew and is still growing. That's a curious thing about men and women, Bart. If they are in good ground and properly cared for they never stop growing - never - and that's pretty full word-isn't it2
 We had come in sight of the house I Jagged behind little when l saw the great nan sitting on the small plazza with Mrs. Wright. see ViV- idly, as l write, the full figure, the rudQy, kindly face, the large nose, the gray eyes, the thick halo of sllvered hair extending from his collar to the bald top of his head. He rose and said in deep voice:
 '.IIe sowS ill luck who flinders the reaper"
 Mir. Wright hung his sickle on a small tree in the dooryard and an- swered:
 "The plowman has overtaken the reaper, Mir. President. I bid you well come to my humble home" Tt is q pleasure to be here and 8 regret to call you back to Washing ton" said the president as they shook hands.
 'I suppose that means an extra Ses- sion," the senator answered.
 First let me reassure you. l shall get away as soon as possible, for I know that q president is a heavy bur den for one to have on his hands"
 Don't worry. l can get along with almost any kind of a, human being, es- pecially If he like pudding and milk as well as you dO," said the senator, who then introduced me In these words:
 "Mr. President, this Is my young friend, Barton Baynes, of the neigh borhoOd of Lickitysplit in the town of Ballybeen-a coming man of this county"
 Come on," was the playful remark of the president as he took my hand, T shall be looking for you"
 l had carefully chosen my words and remember saying, with some dig nity, like one in a story book, although with a trembling voice:

 Look a here, Baynes," Mir. Grim shaw began in that familiar scoldlng tone of his, T know what you want an we might jest as well git right down to business first as last. You keep this boy still an I'll give ye i've years interest"
 Aunt Deel gave gasp and quickly covered her mouth with her hand. Uncle Peabody changed color as he rose from his chair with strange look on his face. He swung his big right hand In the air as he said:
 By the eternal jumpin'-"
 He stopped, pulled down the left sleeve of his flannel shirt and walked to the water pail and drank out of the dipper.
 Say, Mir. Grimshaw, I'm awful sorry for ye," said my uncle as he returned to his chair, "but I've always learnt this boy to tell the truth an the hull truth. | know the danger I'm in. We're gettin' old. It'll be hard to start over ag'in an you can ruin US if ye want to an I'm as scared O ye as 8 mouse in 8 cat's paw, but this boy has got to tell the truth right out plain. I couldn't muzzle him if I tried-he's too much of a man. If you're scared O the truth you mus know that Amos Is guilty"
 Mir. Grimshaw shook his head with anger and beat the floor with the end Of his cane.
 Nobody knows anything O the kind, Baynes," said Mir. Dunkelberg. "Of course Amos never thought O killing anybody. He's a harmless kind of boy. l know him well and so do you. Under the circumstances Mir. Grim shaw Is afraid that Bart's story will make It difficult for Amos to prove his innocence"
 Uncle Peabody shook his head witb a look of firmneSs.
 Again Grimshaw laughed between his teeth as he looked at my uncle. In his view every man had his price.

 Again Uncle Peabody rose from h!s chair with 6 look in his face which I have never forgotten. How his voice rang out!
 "No, sirT he shouted so loudly that we all jumped to our feet and Aunt Deel covered her face with her apron and began to cry. It was like the ex- plosion of a blast. Then the frag- ments began falling with loud crash:

The facts in the case are, that at ths last session Of the Terri toriaI legislature $2oO,OO0 was ap- propristed from Alaska's 7und's and divided Into four equal parts, S6O'- 900 given to each one Of Alasks s judicisl divisions to be used TOT building roads. These arc the facts'
 What the Second, Third ana Fourth Divisions each did with Its S5O,O00 does not concern us; what was done with the 50,000 be- longing to the First Division Is however of tue Greatest import to us. We will admit that tho report Of the road commissioner shows that some roads were built, but this re- port should show that the main DOT ton os this amount was expended in an attempt, mind you we say at tempt adYisedly, in dredging out some portion Of Gastineau Channel. Think or it-less than s50,000 was shA amount oF money available, and 'hs was to dig the sand out Jt Gastineau Channel against the winds and terrific tides Of the AL aska Inside passage.
 Alaska has 8 hard time to get money from the FeteCal Govern ment ior improvements, and when 1t does get any it must so to the railway octopus to the westward so why should this small sum be used for dredgIng waterways that would probably cost millions before re- suits coCld be obtained It was the luueu,;ou Of the legislators to use rRis mCney for roads Not for Douleyards or driTewavs, or high ways, b ut just plain 2 O n ROADS.
