TRACING HISTORY OF BED
Many Varieties Have Been Used, Not
All of Them Conducive to
HeaIthfuI Sleep.

Iron beds were first made for ordi-
nary use couple of hundred years
ago, and gradually people saw the adj
yantages of this metal bed, until now
adays they are almost universally in
use. The Romans used rough frame
work beds, interlaced with thongs, al
though, of course, the idea was much
improved upon in the beds of some Of
the emperors, ornamented with jew
els. After the thong-and-framework
bed came the first idea of a mattress,
in the shape Of the "chest bed" This
was kind of shallow box stuffed with
dry moss or feathers, and although it
must have been comfortable, it must,
at the same time, have been extremely
insanitary. Later on came the big
four-poster canopy bedsteads. These
pieces Of sleeping furniture" were
hung with curtains which did little
else but collect dust and keep away
fresh air. One had to be wealthy to
sleep at all comfortably in those days.
for although there were plenty of
vermin about, there was no effective
insect-killer. So when the bed Of a
rich man became infested, he moved
to another of his houses, and let the
vermin die Of starvation. The poor
man, with only one house, merely
grinned and bore it-Or, rather, them.

preference, but tried to influence his
correspondent for his candidate, re-

HAD GENIUS FOR INVENTION
Man Who Began Lie as Prairie
Sheep Herder Made Most Re-

It Is probable that Walter Turner
was the worlds most prolific inventor.
Starting life as shepherd on a
prairie sheep ranch in the far West
he knew nothing OF the mechanics OF
railway engineering. One day, how
ever, while tending his sheep on TIE
prairie in the neghborhood Of a rail-
way, Turner came to where the ruins
Of a train were scattered, and among
the fragments he picked up. as a Curl
osity vital part Of the Westinghouse
brake. This he was allowed to carry
away. During his lonely life on the
prairie he would ponder over the
mechanism of this brake. His chance
came when, having failed as sheep
farmer, he got job as wheel taper
on the railway, ultimately being pro-
noted to the engine shops. A series
OF inventions, improving brakes pat
ented by the company, led to his fur

who took him into his works, finally
made him the head Of the engineering
department. Westinghouse patented
two hundred inventions, but the shep-
herd from the prairies patented four
hundred. Westinghouse made an air.
brake that would control fifty railway
carriages; Turner improved it till it
would control hundred. When he
died it was said that the value Of the
shepherds inventions to the world
was over thirty-fve million dollars in
gold. .1E
