ADDS TO HARDNESS OF BRICK
Scientist Explains Why Straw 10 .
Necessary Ingredient In the
Process Of Manufacture.

Everyone IN familiar with the story
Of how Pharaoh commanded his task
makers to Increase the burdens late
on the IsraelItes by Withholding from
them the straw wherewith to make
bricks. says the Popular Science
Monthly. and doubtless many have
wondered wherein the hardship lay.
BY most people, probably. the view has
been held that the straw was added as
binding material. much as hair In
used in the mortar; but such an ex-
PLANTATION Is scarcely satisfying when
1t Is remembered that the straw fiber
Is a very weak one. Alexander Find.
lay says in his Chemistry In the Serv-
Ice Of Man.:
"About fourteen years ago 1t was
found by DR.. q. q. Acheson. to whom
we owe the discovery Of cnrboruntyim
and the process Of making artificial
graphite. that when clay Is mixed with
4 dilute solution Of tannln 1t becomes
much more plastic. and the strength
Of the dried brick In. moreover. great
~ Increased. Although straw does
not contain tannin 1t was found that
when straw Is treated with water, the
extract obtained has the same action
on clay as tannin has, the Elasticity Of
the clay and the hardness Of the brick
being greatly increased"

IMAGINARY FOOD ALL RIGHT

get the country into all kinds Of trOu-
BILE.
According to this story, a man on
ferry boat from time to time would
cautiously open II box which he car
ried, to peep inside and then sGutckly
push the lid back into PLACE. The GU.
rlosity OF naturalist who sat near
him was raised to such pitch that Mt

the box about the tenth time. he APP
,pronched and said:
"PnrtiOn me, sir: hut I would like

the other. "Other people would soon

CREED WORTH LIVING UP TO
Man Who Wrote Il Had Proper Apprs.
citation Of the Advantages u
Life In the Country.


II any country boy ever becomes dfs.
contented with his lot and thinks there
might be more opportunities elsewhere.
or better place to live than In white
farmhouse, let him read the creed CON-
posed by Edwin Osgood Grover. The
lines might be pinned up on his blu.
reau. where he can see them the nrst
thing In the morning and the last
thing ut night.
II believe that the country, which
God made. In more beautiful than the
city. which man made; that life out
Of doors and In touch with the earth
Is the natural life If man.
II believe that work il work where
ever we ind It, but that work with
nature IL more inspiring than work
with the most intricate machinery.
II believe that the dignity Of labor
depends not on what you do. but on
how you do 1t: that opportunity comes
to boy on the farm as often as to q
boy In the city: that life is larger and
freer and happier on the farm than in
the town: that my success depends not
upon my location. but upon myself ;
not upon dreams. but upon what
actually do; not upon luck. but upon
pluck.
II believe In working when you work
and in playing when you play, and in
giving and demanding \ square deal In
every act Of life"

Saws for Cutting Metal.

Not so very long ago the discovery
was made In Germany that. metals
could he sawed easier and quicker
with rapidly revolving smooth disks
of STEEL. than with toothed circular
saws. 1t wns found that the cutting
was done by the heat generated by
the friction Of the edge Of the disk
against the :netnl. The metal is melt
ed Mt the point Of contact, while'the
steel Of the disk, being cooled BY the
air. does not reach the melting point.
The disks need no sharpening and do
not wear out SO quickly as the toothed
saws heretofore used for cutting met
al. The faster the disk revolves. the
greater the amount of heat generated.
and the quicker the job.-Popular Sci
ence Monthly.

Psychologists tell us that the human

comparison with the noses Of dogs and
other lower animals II man has run
across meadow 1t would be folly for
you or me to try to find his tracks by
smelling the grass, even half a minute
after he had passed. But days after
