Nails Hand Forged
for English Market

Worcester, England.-Nails are still
made by hand in parts of England.
Some are turned out by order from
manufacturers of furniture after old
patterns and others from various parts
of the world where special types of
hand-wrought iron nails are required.
A recent foreign order came from
South America.
The best-known worker of this al
most lost craft is Mrs Nellie Brettle,
who lives in Lye, being assisted by
young neice who operates the hand
bellows of the forge.
1t is calculated that there are fewer
than fifty persons now living who
were adopts at this work when the
making by hand of iron-wrought
nails was carried on extensively In
nearly every home at Lye and other
villages in the "Black Country" dis
trict. Most of them are too old to at
tempt to apply their trade today.
Quite a number of families, how.
ever. have kept the little "smithy"

to work at the forge, the anvil, fur.

as sort of curiosities. The advent of
machine methods had gradually wrest-

IA Famous Authority's Rule
by Ruth Britain
by Ruth Britain,

Baby specialists agree nowadays,
that during the first six months, babies
must have three ounces Of fluid per
pound of body weight daily. An eight
pound baby, for instance, needs twen-
ty-four ounces of fluid. Later on the
rule is two ounces Of fluid per pound
OF, body weight. The amount of fluid
absorbed by breast-fed baby is best
determined by weighing him before
and after feeding for the whole day;
and it is easily calculated for the bot
tle-fed one. Then make up any de-
f1ciency with water.
Giving baby sufficient water often
relieves his feverish, crying, upset and
restless spells. If it doesn't, give him

Charm for "Unc[e Joe"

Senator james q. Watson, who ls
IN inimitable story-teller himself, has
nn almost ineXhaustible collection Of
tales concerning Joseph Cannon,
speaker of the house of representa-
lives for SO many years.
One time, said Senator Watson, he
was with Uncle Joe, as Cannon was
affectionately known, in New York
and after a meeting they strolled out
In the street with group of news
paper men. The senator said they
walked until long after midnight, but
that Uncle Joe insisted on walking
some more. Finally one of the news
paper men asked:
"Uncle Joe, what Is the greatest
problem of your lifeY"
"Trying to find something to do be-
tween midnight and bedtime" was
the reply.

Danger in the Home

Staying at home is more dangerous
than walking in great city, accord.
ing to statistics published in England
covering seven months.
Fifteen motor car fatalities were re-
ported during the period. but there
were 80 fatal accidents in homes.
These figures are not exceptional, but
conform to those for last year.
The reason for these apparent para
doxes, says Tit-Bits, is that there
are always more aged and infirm at
home than in the streets, and these
form the great majority of indoor cas-
ualties.
Most of the deaths at home. says
the report, were caused by the victim
falling downstairs.

CARRY MILLIONS
IN DIAMOND HUNT
Brokers, Unprotected, Wander
Around With Fortunes.

Lichtenburg, South Africa.-A prim-
tive street of ramshackle huts is one
of the worlds most important dia-
| mOnd martS.
| Here in the heart of the alluvial
diamond fields of Grasfontein, South
Africa, millions of dollars worth of
the precious stones are regularly
bought and sold. The shacks that
look like shelters on a poultry farm
are the offices Of the brokers. Once a
month or oftener, If the yield Of the
fields is unusually rich, they are
opened for business.
The diamond brokers travel to the
exchange by train or automobile
across the desert from Pretoria and
other Soutl African cities. All trans
actions are made In cash and the
brokers bring with them usually from
$5,0OO.000 to $10,0OO,O00 in currency.

man carrying the wealth needs no

are unknown.

built of corrugated iron sheets, as
there is not tree for hundreds of
miles to supply lumber. Each shack
has table, chair or two and pair
of scales, and nothing more.
On the arrival of the brokers flag
is flown above the shanty. The
miners who have been accommodating
diamonds for the previous month
thereupon bring their wares to the
offices, where they are weighed and
bargained for. The rough stones
bought in this way later are sorted
and appraised, and ultimately find
their way to the diamond cutters In
European and American cities.
The alluvial deposits of Grasfontein
have been the scene of one of the
most picturesque diamond rushes in
history. A mushroom town sprang up
in a few hours, which became hive
Of activity.
The wild excitement of the rush
was largely due to the fact that the
great wealth O. diamonds in these
fields lay virtually on the surface, to
be picked up by the fortunate min
ers.
Work is still actively in progress in
these fields and the output continues
to be large. Diamonds from the new
alluvial fields are rarely more than
two or three carats in weight in the
rough, and when cut weigh on the
average less than one carat. Many Of
the stones mined here have slightly
yellowish cast. Large as have been
the yields, the demand for diamonds
is reported to have more than kept
pace with the supply, and the alluvial
diamonds have been absorbed quickly.
