DRAWING WIRE BY MACHINERY
Simple Mechanism viii Fill Twenty
spooIs at Once With Fins
Aluminium Strands.

In the manufacture Of certain
kinds OF wire, especially fine alumi-
mum wire, machine is used which
is surprisingly similar to the spin
ming apparatus in modern cotton
mill. In fact, it is a mechanical
twister, by which the wire is sepa-
rated from what might be called the
supply coil into strands of the re-
quisite thickness and wound upon
spools.
The supply coil passes over a
pulley above the spindles and
through what might be called
drawing frame, says the Washing
ton Star. From this it is carried to
the spools Of a certain size. From
these it passes through second
drawing frame, which decreases its
diameter, again winding it on
spools, the third drawing frame
turning it into the size required for
commercial purposes.
While some Of the machines will
draw out enough wire to fill 20
spools at once, so complete and so
simple is the mechanism that but
one person is needed to attend each
machine.

ALL NOT GOLD THAT eLITTEas

In the cheaper jewelers. shops one
often sees trinket advertised as
eighteen7karat Oroide gold. This is
simply compound Of copper and a
very little gold.
The person who buys such an
article under the impression that
0roide is the place where the gold
came from has no redress whatever
when he is disillusioned, because
the article is exactly what it is
described to be. Then there is
Mannheim gold which has no trace
Of this precious metal in its COM
position; while Mosaic gold is an
other metal of the same sort.
Nuremburg gold now beginning
to make its appearance in this
country, looks very like the genuine
article. 1t does not tarnish, and
is the same color throughout, but it
only has two per cent of real gold
IN it, the rest being copper and
aluminium. The sovereign contains
eleven parts of gold to one Of cop
per, while the coins of the United
States have nine parts gold to one
copper.-London Answers.

Fish MEN, PECULIAR TRIBE
s' mole Suffers n Without prlrs
Of Water Every Hour
OF the Day.

The most amazing race Of human
beings Is undoubtedly the FL Molo,
a tribe of FISH men, who inhabit
the desert wastes bordering Lake
Rudolf, in Kenya colony, Africa.
This tribe represents the only
known specimens of semiamphibi-
Gus people and it is a curious fact
that any tribesman dies if he is kept
without water for about three hours.
says london Tit-Bits. AS a ruls
they drink every hour during the
day, for even an hour and a half
without water causes cracking and
bleeding Of the lips.
The El Molo tribesmen spend
their days swimming in the waters
OF Lake Rudolf and fishing from
frail RATS constructed with palm
branches. Fish is almost their only
diet, and they have no opportunity
OF varying their menu unless they
are fortunate enough to spear a
hippopotamus.
The water Of Lake Rudolf is I'M
drinkable to anyone but the Ell
Molo, for it contains large guam
tity Of soda and has an objection
able taste. The proportion Of soda
IN the lake increases yearly and it
s believed to be this fact that has
'aused the fish mem to become a
reformed race.

Having finally succeeded in win.

/ would like to offer a few sug.
gestions to those fans who are
struggling with acrostics.
I'm the first place, believe win.
ners should not participate further
in the contest. but give the others
a chance TO win. I might say It
was only after much striving that ]
succeeded in winning on johnson.
Skillet picks the winners fairly. He
is incorruptible. He Judges the
acrostic on it's own merits, regard
less OF perfumed envelopes or ap-
pearance Of contestants.
when players name appears
In The Times for solution, try to
acquaint yourself with that players
past performances. If you have
seen. him in action. visualize his
appearance. Don't lot down his
name until you have 1air idea OF
what you think Of him. You win
be surprised how near your opin-
ion embraces the letters in his name
when you come to write it down.
Every mans name contains an APP
propriate message. For instance,
take q movie actor like Buster Kea.
ton, His forte is that he never
smiles. You could almost imme-
diately write an acrostic like Keeps

stuck on one word after spending
quite some time on 1t, leave the
whole works and come back to IL
later, refreshed after a show or O
ride.
ITO the girl fans I might sug-
gest that 1t would help them con.
siderably to cut out the photo ac-
companying the players name,
place 1t under your pillow and sleep
soundly on it. In the morning you
will find you have unconsciously
created an acrostic in your mind
over night. Jot It down and rush
| It over to Skiilet's.s
MY last suggestion ts that IL IL
far better to submit one good,
original acrostic than several poor
ones at time. Concentrate on one
