STOVE FIRST MADE IN 1855
But Or. Neil Arnott, an En9Iishman.
Had the Germ Of the Idea in the
Year 1921.

Stoves are comparatively recent
invention. True, stoves OF some sort
we're used by the ancients and even
by the savage tribes which preceded
their civilization, but the first real
modern Improvement In the produc-
ton and agency Of heat" as he called
it, was made by Or. Neil Arnott and
announced to marveling England
Nov. 4, 1921, the Detroit News states.
How much stoves were in need of
modernlzation in those days in proven
by the fact that when the German.
Or. c. William Siemes, in 1850, des-
cribed his first "smokeless" stoves,
not only the scientific world but all
properly conducted households greeted
him as Il great inventor.
The next steps forward were made
by T. Pridgin Teale in 1855 and from
that day dates the stove as we know 1t
now.
But prior to Teale'S inventions the
world was made acquainted by the
American, Hamilton, in 1874, with
system of compressed grass. straw and
other materials in such manner that
they could be burnt without prDduc-
ing masses OF suffocating smoke. Ham,
iltOns invention was dedicated to
localities where wood was scarce. 1t
never had much vogue, but presumably
was deeply appreciated by the people
whom he had in mind in devising his
patent.

HAD TO DO MORE THAN PRAY
Lone Beaver Found He Had Taken the
Words of the Preacher Altogether
Too Literally.

As Lone Beaver sat In the mission
house and listened to the words OF The.
preacher, he had an inspiration. Only
by hard work had he been able to live.
He worked about the Hudson's Bay
company's post in summer and spent
the winter in the snow-drifted forest
on his trap lines.
Verify I say unto you" said the
preacher In his sermon, "gO 10 the
Lord in prayer for what you want. and
If you have faith it will be given you"
Lone Beaver went to his teepee and
fell on his knees. 20 Lord" he prayed,
"bring me a sack Of flour, side of
bacon, one box Of tea and one box Of
sugar."
He waited until late afternoon In
vain. 1t occurred to him that as he
had never seen the Lord, be perhaps
had asked too much of stranger
20 Lord he prayed again apologeti-
calIy, bring me only half of what l
asked before"
Still nothing happened. Supper time
came and Lone Beaver was hungry.
20 Lord" he cried desperately,
"bring me a plate, of beans"
That seemed little enough to ask,
but not bean came in answer. This
was too much for Lone Beaver. and
he voiced his lost faith in angry. words
20 Lord" he said. 'you are just the
same as the HudsOn's Bay company.

GREAT POWER OF PRESIDENT
United States Chief Executive "Most
Potent Constitutional Function
ary In the World"

The legal functions Of the Presi-
DENTS office urc So eminent that he
cannot escape the responsibilities OF
executive action, however much he
may be INCLINED to avoid them. His
constitutional powers alone make him
the pivot upon which all the admins
trative machinery operates.
He appoints the heads OF depart
ments and may direct their major pol
icies. His power of appointment 10
all the greateS offices is far reaching,
He can recommend, shape and veto
legislation. His control over foreign
affairs is virtually complete. He Is
commander in chief of the army and
the navy. In short, he Is the most
potent constitutional functionary in
the world.
All these constitutional powers have
been vastly augmented by practice
and custom. The President today can
do innumerable things that George
Washington or Thomas Jefferson
would never have dared do even II
they had thought of them.
The constitutional conception of the
President Is that Of chief executive,
an administrator; custom has added
to this conception that of leadership.
