TO REVIVE HOME INDUSTRY
Good Wort; Done by Knitters During
the War :ias Given Impetus to
New Movement.

What was accomplished by the vast
volunteer army of knitters during the
war is one Of the creditable facts in
the history of the world upheaval
through which civilization has been
passing, says the st. Louis Globe Dem
ocrat. But for the millions of devoted
women who kept the needles flying the
horrors of the trenches would have
been still more frightful and deadly.
The achievements of the knitterS have
suggested the organization in New
York of a society for the revival of
home industry and domestic art. It's
first move is to gather all the spinning
wheels within reach and look up prac-
teal instructors in the use of a house
hold implement that had become but
an antique piece Of furniture. Man.
kind needs weavers as well as plow-
men, and spinning at home is one OF
the oldest forms of industry. In the
cabins of American pioneers the spin
ming wheel was a necessity, and kept
busy in what, by stretch of imagi-
nation, were called spare hours. Those
were the days of hOmespun textiles
because often no others were to be
had

DRAWS MUSIC FROM A SAW
New Yorker Gets Startling and Pleas
ing Effects by Using the Tool
as Violin.

The conventional saw has recently
appeared in a new role-namely, as
musical instrument. Indeed, one or
the leading novelties of current New
York musical revue is the musical car
penter who uses his saw as violin.
After prOtracted experimentation
and untiring practice, Sam Moore OF
New York city has succeeded in get
ting very agreeable music from ordln-
airy carpenters saw, according to the
Scientific American. He holds the saw
handle between his legs, holds the tip
of the saw in one hand and works the
usual violin bow with the other. The
vibrating steel blade emits soft, ap-
pealing notes, the pitch of which is
varied by changing the curvature OF
the blade.
All sorts of queer effects can be
obtained by the adept manipulation
of the blade; in fact, the music de-
rived by this means can hardly be de-
scribed. If anything, it resembles the
human voice; then again it has the
queer wall of the Hawaiian Ukulele.
All in all, the effect is startling and
pleasing.

SOME FISH OF RECORD SIZE
Finny Monster Claimed to Have Been
Taken Off New Jersey-Remark-
able Devil Fish.

America claims to have caught the
largest fish on record-an enormous
ray harpooned off New Jersey, weigh
ing four tons, and needing six oxen
and % men to drag it ashore. The
battle with the fish lasted nine hours,
and it dashed up spray to a height of
over 80 feet.
Allowance must be made for some
exaggeration, but there are on record
other cases where gigantic rays, or
devil fish, have been harpooned.
One taken off Jamaica was so big
that it took 40 men to drag 1t along
the beach. Even rays caught in Brit
ish waters are sometimes of great size.
like one that was sold in the fish
market at Cambridge. 1t weighed 224
pounds, and when cooked and served
at st. Johns college was sufficient TO
make meal for 100 persons.
A ray IS feet across and 80 feet
round was trapped in Table bay, while
off the Bahama islands the natives once
harpooned a gigantic skate measuring
something like 1G feet across the flap
pers.

New Vegetable Ivory.

A recent number of the French bull
letin of the colonial Office gives a de-
scription of a new form of vegetable
ivory, which can be used in European
industry in place of the coroso. This
new substance is produced by the ker-
mel of an edible fruit growing upon a
palm of the upper Senegal-Niger ter
ritory, the Borassus ethiapicum. The
kernel is seven or eight. centimeters
long and five centimeters broad, thus
permitting the cutting of balls Or
plates of considerable size to be used
in marquetry, or the making of domi-
noes, piano keys, buttons etc. The ker-
mel becomes extremely hard when
thoroughly dried. AS a, proof Of this it
is stated that it is at the present mo-
ment being used as building stones for
making of the houses of native chiefs,
while it is expected that the future
cathedral at Dakar will have tinted
pillars constructed of these same ker-
nels.-Scientific American Monthly.

Strange Drauehts Boards.

Probably the most extraordinary
draught board in the world was con-
Structed at st. Leonard, England, in
1891. 1t was made of solid blocks of
concrete, three feet thick, and it's sur
face covered an area Of 625 square
feet. A draught board, which at one
time belonged to Bismarck, is estimat-
ed to have cost more than 10000.
The squares are made of solid. gold
and silver. This draught board was
declared by experts to be the most
valuable in existence. A set OF
draughtsmen, - Of gold and y of
silver, were presented to the prince.
In the center of each golden draught
was a beautiful ruby, while inlaid in
the center of each silver one was n
peerless diamond. A quaint old draught
board is still to be seen hanging as a
sign outside the Chequers inn, OS-
motherley. It's interest lies in the
fact that neither the original painter
of the sign, nor the landlord of the
inn, was a draughts player. The
board has IS squares, whereas a real
draught board contains GA.

turn your back upon your own time
is simply to provoke living wags, with
rudimentary but effective humor, to
chalk opprobrious epithets upon your
person. But, on the other hand, to
depend upon your contemporaries for
literary sustenance, to be reduced. to
scan the lists of Forthcoming Works"
with a hungry eye, to complain of a
dearth of new poems, and new novels,
and new sermons, is worse than affec-
tation-it is stupidity.-Augustine
Birrcll.
