SPECIAL MEDAL FOR THIS DOG
st. Bernard Forgot Eternal Feud With
Cat Family and Braved Flames
to Save Pussy.

The supply of Carnegie hero medals
would soon give out If all the brave
and thoughtful dogs were remembered.
A st. Bernard in the town Of Everett,
Mass, mindful of the traditions Of
sn0wbound travellers and his Alpine
monastery, has just effected triple
rescue that entities him to whatever
dogdom can offer in the way Of canon
ization, to match the name Of the saint
that his devoted breed already bears.
First he woke up the families in two
apartments by his loud barking when
fire broke out, and then, having
started the human beings on their hur-
ried exodus to safety, he darted back
through the smoke, got the family cat,
which had been forgotten in the ex-
element, and reappeared with his
tribal enemy in his mouth. Would all
human beings have been so magnani-
mous?-Philadelph Ledger.

ROPE SUPERIOR TO LEATHER

Betting in American and Euro
pean Mills and Factories,

For 20 years there has been an in
creasing use in this country of manila
rope for power transmission in mills
and factories in place of leather belt
ing. In English factories ropes super.
seeded betting long ago. and their use
is nearly universal. In the United
States the change that has taken place
began with the acquisition of the Phil.
ippine islands. where, as everybody
knows, the manila hemp fiourishes.
The fiber Of this hemp varies in length
from 6 to IL feet. and occasionally at
tains length Of IS feet. 1t is said
to possess greater tensile strength
than any other fiber known, exceed
ing $4,000 pounds per square inch.
Rope drives, as transmission ropes are
called, possess the advantage Of noise
lessness, owing to their flexibility and
to the existence Of an air passage in
the grooves between the rope and the
sheath.

Chaucer displayed them in depict

Lincoln and Sumner.
Lincoln was modestly proud Of his
stature and Of the effect Of the physical
man, especially when actuated by
noble sentiments. He used to speak
Of his height to every tall man he
met. and to propose measuring-an-
other guileless habit Of self-gratifica-
ton. The only refusal he Is known
to have received was from Charles
Sumner, who was also tall and proud
Of his height. Sumner was worrying
the President. as he. often did, about
some perplexing matter. when Lincoln
abruptly challenged him to measure.
Sumner declined" said Lincoln, "mak-
ing q fine speech about this being the
