SUCCESS SLOW IN COMING
plscoverer Of vulcanIxed Rubber Was
at One Time Compelled to Beg
Money for Bread.

Charles Goodyear, who became a
millionaire and was the inventor Of vul-
canized rubber as well as many other
forms Of the tree sap products, ut one
time was forced to beg for S. to keep
him from starving. In 1884 he discov-
cred that rubber could be vulcanized.
1t was an accident. He attempted to
remove some bronze dust from bit OF
rubber cloth, and after trying several
chemicals tried aqua fortis, chem
ical largely composed Of sulphuric acid.
1t failed also. and he threw the cloth
away. A few days later he picked II
up by chance, and noted the spot
rubbed by the aqua forts had hard
ened and would stand degree Of heat
that would have melted 1t In Its former
state.
He applied his discovery, and soon
was wearing rubber shoes, coats, hats
and other garments, and had a small
fortune by the right Of his discovery.
But a year passed, and his goods were
discredited and returned, rotting and
broken. He was ruined. He started
In again to discover a method that
would vulcanize the rubber, and for
ten years he kept at It, his life q long
misery Of hunger and cold and crush
ing poverty. His success came sudden
ly and soon he was rich beyond his
widest dreams.

tiousecleanins Need Not Be Hard.


Housscleaning need not be the bug
bear it has long been regarded in many
households. II the work is carefully
planned, IL the kind OF furnishings ths,
are easy to keep clean are chosen and
| handled 10 the right way, and II pro-
vision 10 made for keeping all the dirt
possible out of the house, there will be
no need for the uphesvxls that result iu
discomfort to the entire household. The
following are good rules by which to
organize the houseclesning:
Keep dirt out of the house by cleaning
the walks, steps, porches and sills regu'
larly and often, by screening windows
and doors near the ground, and BY insist.
ing on having muddy shoes and coats
cleaned, or left outside.
Lessen the number Of dust collecting
places, such as unnecessary cupboards,
grooved and carved woodwork, floors
with cracks, rough finished walls. elsbo.
rstely carved and upholstered furniture,
superfluous draperies, and bric-a- brao.
Remove dirt frequently and systemati.
cslly. This keeps the house and furnish
ings In better condition, and makes the
need Of heavy cleaning less frequent.
Clean by taking the dirt away, not by
scattering 1t, to settle again elsewhere.
Do heavy cleaning little at time to
avoid the hard work and dlscomforts of
The old fashioned spring and fall house
cleaning.
Have . supply OF good cleaning tools
such ss your work calls for, and keep
them In good order In convenient place.
Use water and cleaning agents spar
ingly because otherwise they may spoil
finishes and weaken glue, paste, or oe-
ment.
Watch for troublesome insects and ami
mails, and take prompt measures to get
rid of them II they appear.
Make all the family help by leaving
things where they belong, and In good
condition.

Earrings Ancient Ornaments.

The custom Of wearing earrings
comes down to US from the most an.
cient times, and no custom Is more
prevalent or more universal. The
earliest mention Of earrings Is found
in the book Of Genesis. Many people
have been struck by the mention in
the authorized version Of the Bible of
the fact that only one earring was
brought as a present for Rebekah.
when Abraham's servant was seeking
a wife for Isaac. This Is mistake.
for the word means "nose-ring," and
has been rendered correctly In the re-
vised version. 1t is, however, in Gene
sis 81 a, that the first mention Is made
Of earrings: "And they gave unto
Jacob all the strange gods which were
In their hands, and the rings which
were In their ears"

Wonderful Poison Gases.

Canned, solidifled, poison gas, which
Is claimed to be absolutely foolproof
and mobile, has been perfected for use
by the American soldier, according to
Popular Mechanics Magazine. That
two studies-defensive and offensive
gas research-go hand in hand al
ready has been demonstrated, for, In
addition to the development Of new
forms Of gas, army experts at the
Edgewood (Md.) arsenal, have had to
improve the gas masks to make them
effective against some Of the new
gases brought into existence there. In
technical military progress, every new
weapon means call upon the armorer
for q new defense. AS result, this
country today has not only gases
which surpass anything used during
the World war. but mask which, In
recent tests was worn "a hours a day

side seat. When Pastor. playing the

bull, however, was not dead and start

his head, and with Pastor standing at

A second later the bull tumbled over
