knocked from their feet Thursday
when the United States weather re-
port showed a temperature of 1O7
degrees for Wednesday. Hardly had
they recovered from this terrible
blow when the Friday weather re-
port arrived and showed Americus'
temperature at ITO for Thursday.
This was too much. The disgruntl-
ed citizenry called on the President
of the Chamber Of Commerce and
demanded that he investigate the
preposterous figures and to see that
the government thermometers were
carefully examined and tested so
that they would no longer register
degrees of heat that would brand
Americas as a blistering inferno to
the outside world.
Friday afternoon the Chamber Of
Commerce and Mr.. Poole went out
to Mr.. Poole's residence to take
reading of the thermometer. They
found the little red line strung out
to 1OS degrees and still climbing.
A test las prescribed by the wealth
err bureau, was made which showed
the thermometer to be from 5 to 8
degrees inaccurate.
Mr.. Poole said today that the
thermometer registered very accu-
rately until it reached 100. but aft
err passing the century mark it fail
ed to perform as first class gov
eminent thermometer should.

BUGS GUARD TREASURE
FOR 2 HUNDRED YEARS

MEXICO CITY, Mexico, Aug. ri.
Back in the days of the Spanish
adventurers some of COrtes' men
named a mine the "cockroach mine"
because of the innumerable reaches
that infested the region.
Later, however, the mine was
abandoned, and the opening sealed
up and forgotten.
Recently an old prospector IN the
territory noticed a rock swarming
with cockroaches. Remembering the
cid story of the Spanish mine, he
followed the trail of the bugs, and
found the old mine, which now is
being worked.
The mine is situated in the noun
tains near Durango.

The Head. the Hair, the Hat.

Do you have trouble getting a hat
that will cover your hair? This is a
particularly perpleXing question If
your hair is not bobhed. In that case,
every hat you try on is too small. If,
on the other hand, you have bowed to
the Paris decree and been bobbed, it
is difficult to find a hat small enough.
Not the least of the trials of the
woman who has decided to keep her
long hair has been the vogue of the
small hat. 4 hat perched on top o:
a mass Of hair like d bird on a nest
is Il ridiculous object. Again, a hat
wobbling all over the head and rest
ing on the cheeks below the lobe of
the ear is something to laugh at.
hat with a small crown must be
on "a line with the line of the head.
The best way for the woman with or
without bobbed hair who wishes to
look just right is TO have her hat
fitted to her head. This fashion was
started in particular Paris and has
all over the world.
Again. the way the hair is dressed
affects the way the hat is worn. If
you wear your hair short, straight
and close to your head. small hat
is likely to be becoming. You may
even wear a very broad-brimmed hat,
the style that is now so much the
mode, if the crown of your hat fits
your head closely. If you wear your

AlARGETTIi.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are
variable and changeable: in the morn
Ing, they are adverse: at noon, they
become benign and equable; after sun
set. they are actively favorable, especi-
ally for any line of endeayor that is
related to art. 1t would be advis-
able during the day not to engage
in any task that calls for the virtues
of initiative or persistency, although
planning for something to be done
in this direction at a later date may
be productive of good results. In
the evening, your best efforts may,
with profit, be exerted, as the signs
denote that the vibrations will be very
stimulating. Any social reunion will
be harminious. Any musical or thea
trical entertainment will be successful.
A child born tomorrow will suffer
considerably from sickness during the
early years of its career. only very
careful elimentation and watchful care
will enable II to attain the degree of
physical normalcy that, by those who
love ii. Is desired. Temperamentally.
and regardless of sex. il will be Win
some, attractive and exceptionally
sympathetic, especially toward those
who may be In trouble or distress. II
Will not be an intellectual giant, but
will amass "a large amount of common
sense. and this Will prove. in many
instances, Of greater value than learn
Ing.
If tomorrow is your birthday. your
charac cter is sacrificial. and you evince
greater interest in the successful do
ings Of those near and dear TO you
than in your own efforts for your
individual gain or happiness. You
have great ambition for your kith and
kin, but very little for yourself. You
are always ready to surrender the
spotlight. in n spirit of self feffacement
to another. No sacrifice can be too
great. on your part, if it will benefit
either relative or friend.
1t is almost unnecessary To tell
you that you are kind and loving
general favorite in your circle of
friends. and dearly respected and loved
by your family.
You possess a very charming per
sonality, and this draws people to
you. While there is little that you
would not do for the sake of others
II is just as thrue that there is little
that your friends would not do for
you.
Well known persons born on that
date are: Ray Palmer, clergyman
and author; Elizabeth Cady Stanton,
reformer; Thomas Wood, artist;

How "Real" Silk Is Made.

Did you know that real" silk is
reel silk?
In other words. the reeled silks, or
raw silks are those made from the
fiber removed from the perfect cocoons
of silkworms, by the laborious process
Of unreeling.
First, the cocoons go into boiling
water, which softens their fiber. and
then the 'f1oss''-the loose fuzzy fiber
on the surfaces taken off. 1t IS
later used for carded silk yarn.
Then the cocoons are put into a
lukeWarm water bath, and workmen
manipulate them until some loose bit
of fiber gets attached to the brushes
with which the cocoons are stirred
about. Then the fiber is pulled out
gently, and the cocoon, still in the
water, unreels itself. Since each
fiber is so fine and small, three or four
of them are generally taken together
and put onto n reel frame" which
turns the raw" silk out in skeins.
This raw reeled silk goes to the
factory to be made into cloth by the
process of silk throwing" which cor
responds to the spinning of other
fibers. Throwing" consists of five
steps: sorting, soaking. drying, wind
Ing and doubling and twisting.
Sorting" is simply the opening of
the bales or SkeinS. sorting or these
skeins according to size, color and
quality.
Soaking" Of the silk is done in
tanks of warm water, into which soa p
has been dissolved. This is done to
soften the gum. and so facilitate the
unwinding OF the silk from the skein.
Drying" the next step. may be
done either by machine which draws
out the moisture from the silk by
whirling il about, or by hanging the
silk on poles in steam heated rooms.
Next comes winding" by u ma
chine which unrolls the silk from the
skeins and leaves it wound on bobbins,
ready for doubling and twisting"
Doubling and twisting" is the last
step in the process. A machine first
doubles" together the threads from
several bobbins, then winds them on
another bobbin. Twisting" is done
on still another machine, which again
winds II. Sometimes, usually only II
the silks are intended for sewing silk,
another process. called stretching"
is employed. The twisted" thread
is unwound from the bobbins and put
through water. passing, as il goes,
over rollers. which stretch II.
This raw" or ''reeled" silk is used
in the making Of the finest silk mate
rials, such as you like for your outer
garments, and in the manufacture of
the fine thread with which you make
them up.

SO centered upon the comforts of

This type does not allow himself To
be carried away with day dreams. .
lie grasps every opportunity to pile
up wealth while his associates stand

lie does not believe in burning up
too much energy in mental activity
nor is he at all prodigal in expendlns
physical energy, yet he seems always
to have his eye on the main chance
