Musical ability in child can be

The sense of pitch, which is the abil-

which is the ability to tell what is
more pleasing and what is less pleas

Weight Changes Every Hour.

We are lightest when we rise in the
morning. breakfast puts on a pound
or so, but we lose some of this by
lunch time. when we again add to our
weight. After lunch back we go once
more. though. as between breakfast
and lunch, we retain part of the In
crease. Then comes dinner, which
brings us up to our maximum. We
have then gained, on the average,
seven pounds during the day. Cen
orally, therefore, the greatest variation
during the "a hours is seven pounds,
the weight lost between dinner and
breakfast.

ANCHORS Or MANY PATTERNS


The Britannica describes the anchor
as San instrument of iron or other
heavy material used FOR holding ships
or boats In any locality required. and
preventing them from drifting by
winds, tides. currents or other causes.
This is done by the anchor latter 1t Id
let go from the ship by means Of the
cable) fixing Itself, In the ground and
there holding the vessel fast.
The most ancient anchors consisted OF
large stones, baskets full OF stones,
sacks filed with sand. or logs Of wood
loaded with lead. OF this kind were
the anchors Of the ancient Greeks,
which, according to Apollonius Rhod-
ius, and Stephen Of B~yzantium, were
formed of stone; and Athenaeus states
that they were sometimes made Of
wood. Such anchors held the vessel
merely by their weight and by the
friction along the bottom. Iron was
afterward introduced for the construc-
ton Of anchors, and an Improvement
was made by forming them with teeth
or 'hukes' to fasten themselves into
the bottom. = = The invention
of the teeth is ascribed by Pliny to the
Tuscans, but Pausanias gives the
credit to Midas, king of Phrygia."

operation are introduced. The mere
fact that the waste no longer lies In a
pile is a matter Of considerable mo-
ment, for the pile, as already indi-
Gated, furnishes the physical sur
roundings most favorable for the op-
GRAFTON Of these organisms. Moisture,
which they need, is present in Just the
right amount. Air In the pile supplies
them with the oxygen which they re-
quire. The mass of waste holds the
heat which is generated in the chem
ical reactions which accompany the
processes of decay. This, In turn,
makes possible even greater activity
on the part of the bacteria.

Earliest Is Believed to Have
Been Made From Wood.

Among other traditions explaining
how wampum (beit of curious-looking
white and purple beads used as cur
rency by the Indians and early colo
nists and traders) first came to be used,
the Iroquois have one to the effect that
once Hiawatha, on a journey, came to
a little lake, and was wondering how
to cross 1t when a flock of ducks ap-
peared and settled on the water. When
they flew away, Hiawatha, looking ON
the dry bed of the lake, saw that It
was covered with shells. Of these he
made the first wampum.
Despite this legend and similar ones,
however, 1t is believed that the earliest
wampum was made of small pieces Of
wood of equal size, stained black or
white. Porcupine quilts are also said
to have been used. Later, wampum
was made from shells, sometimes of
the fresh-water varieties, but generally
Of sea shells. The best wampum was
made from the hearts of the common
hard clam of Long Island.

In the case of the power-driven ma
chine, any disorder calls for greater
power to operate it. The horses or
the machine furnishing the power
work harder and approximately the

It is much easier to overlook a slight
tndisposition on the part of a power
consuming machine than on the part
OF the power producer.
II any part through which power Is
transmitted liz loose, 1t may cause a

CURE FOR B~LAcKHEAD

blackhead in turkeys has been dis
covered by two doctors in San Diego,
California. Drs. H. M. ard Paul Wege-
forth came to the conclusion that
blackhead in turkeys was produced
by the same organism that produces
dysentery in human beings. The two
doctors found after q series of expert
ments the same remedy of so much
value for the humans, viz, ipecac is
a sure preventative Of the dreaded
