MAKING A SHOTGUN.
Twelve Hundred Operations Necessary
Before the Weapon Is Completed.
The stock and forearm reach
the factory from the sawmill, cut
in th<* hare outline of the part to
be made, says < Piling. The wood
is chiefly of American growth,
black walnut predominating, and
the best grades go noturally to t he
gun factories. It is seasoned
sometimes for three years. The
first lathe it reaches, which clev
erly compels the cutting tool to
follow any sort of irregular pal
tern by means of a revolving mod
el that automatically guides it.
completely shapes the gun stock
as you see it. After that, other
lathes attend to the digging out
of the bed for the lock-plate, in
serting the proper holes and
notches and slits for magazine.

dexteremsly lile*el out line* by line*
by younft women.
It is enticingly claimed for
many guns that the sportsman
r reeds only a screwdriver with
which to take the* arm apart for
4. cleaning and repairs. This speaks
we*ll for simplicity. It has taken
upward of 1.200 operations to
make* an entire gun etf about 0."
parts, of which most arecontaineei
in the receiver. To make* these
parts, special machines, e>r, more
accurately, in many cases special
tools to fit machines, have been
levised byeae h factory. The steel

the we>od from the* mill, roughly

grab tlie*se pieces when at a white*
heat, pounel the*m into submission

are many and varied, and are in

ADVENTURE WITH WOLVES.
Modern Hero Adopts Original, If
Prosaic, Means of Escape.
Nothin*; could but tor show lion
ill 1 ho tinios havo liocomo for po
ets and romancers than the con
duet of a traveling salesman
whose sleigh was ehased by
wolves last week up in <'ass coun
ty. Minn., says the Now York
Times. It was an opportunity
that the travelers of old never
failed to develop into somethin*;
tragical and useful for litearv
purposes. They always carefully
provided themselves with a child
or t wo before start ing through 1 lie
forests or over the plains where
the wolves were, and, when the
crisis arose, when the horses wen1
exhausted and tin* wolves were
blowing hot air over over t lie back
of tin* sleigh—which, by the way,
was always a sledge—-either a he
roic parent threw himself to the
ravening pack or else a child was
dropped to them, a course not so
heroic, but equally productive of
-copy.’’ The wretched drummer,
however, was neither heroic nor
horrible. He didn’t even sacrifice
his driver—he simply emptied his
lunch box little by little, on the
snow, and tin* wolves, equally de
generate, contented themselves
with pie and doughnuts until the
horses could trot calmly into the
village of Backus! What poet or
romancer could do anything with
an adventure like that?

HEALERS OF MANKIND.
Doctors Make Notable Progress in
Fight Against Disease.
For centiii ics fantastic theoriz
crs have been setting forth sup
postal causes of cancer anti lep
rosy; hut physicians generally have
refused to accept as verified tin*
manifold whimsical notions as to
tin* origin of these diseases. It is
evident enough that in certain
parts of the world cancer and lep
rosy, like 1 uhereulosis and small
pox, are more prevalent and vir
ulent than in other regions. Pos
sibly there may be cancer "belts"
and leprosy '“belts," so to speak;
but as 1 lit* years go on the medical
profession is gaining ground In
lighting these enemies of health
and vitality in various territories
and areas.

ing of the death rate from pul
monary consumption in both hem
ispheres where competent doctors
have had a free lield forellicacious
treatment, rancor and leprosy
and the bubonic pestilence are
still baffling problems for the
ablest medical men in the world
to solve, as to their beginnings,
their progress and their treat
ment. Hut study and investiga
tion on the part of pathologists
have been of late so persistent and
energetic that notable discover
ies which may tend to mitigate
sufferings from such affections
may be brought to view at any
time.
Who would have dreamed a cen
tury ago of the possibility of the
finding out of anaesthetics and the
ending of pain in surgical opera
tions? For thousands of years am
putat ions and t he use of the knife
upon the wounded had been at
tended with unavoidable suffering
and agony for the patients. W it Il
ia much less than a hundred years
; surgery has become practically
painless. Who. then, should give
up hope that cancer, leprosy and
tuberculosis—yea, even rheuma
tism itself, that protean curse of
the race—may yet yield complete
ly to the skill of the healers?
POISONOUS SHELLFISH.
Case of Enteric Fever in England
Traced to Eating Mussels.
The recent scare concerning the
pollution of certain oyster beds
1ms caused many persons to re
frain from eating the toothsome
bivalve, and the trade, says Cham
bers' .Journal, has suffered to a se
rious extent. It would seem from
a report of the London medical of
ficer of health that similar care
must be exercised regarding mus
sels and cockles. A ease of enteric
fever was traced to mussels sold
at Hillingsgate market. and tbest
were found to have come from
Leigh, near the mouth of the
Thames. Samples of both cockles
and mussels from the same beds
were submitted to bacteriological
examination, and were found to
be polluted, some to a dangerous
extent, with sewage. The Fish
mongers’ company have therefore
prohibited the sale in the Loudon
markets of these Kssexcockles un
til they can render a better ac
count of themselves. It seems
from this report that there is a
minimum period for which these
shellfish should be boiled before
being eaten, and this precaution
ary measure has been disregarded.
“All Hands Black Faces.”
Ono of tho most curious orders
given in the British royal navy is:
“All hands black faces!’’ And in
order that this may be adequately
fulfilled each of i he warships ear
: ties amongst its stores a supply of
such pigment as is used for the
same purpose on the stage. This
! order is only given during the
maneuvers as a rule, for when a
night surprise* is intended it is nor
only the vessels that are made as
little visible as possible, but tin*
faces of the men must be black
ened, for when powerful night
glasses are used the showing of a
white face is far more palpable
than any landsman would sup

Charged with infringing upon the trade

tins afternoon by Magistrate Jertnon, and
at. the same time Griffith's clerk. Joseph

latter had spent $3 000.000 in advertising

purpose to permit others to reap the bene
fits.
The label in question is a small one con
taining a large letter L, and tlie one used
by Griffith is an exact copy, except that it
does not contain Carters name.
The prosecution showed how easily the
imitation product could be palmed off on
the would-be purchaser of Carter's p;iis
owing to the similarity of the labels, and
held that it was evidence of a deliberate
attempt to deceive.—Philadelphia Tele

<© Fibroid Tamers Cured.
A distressing case of T ibroid T umor,
which baffled the skill of Boston doctors.
Airs. Hayes, of Boston, Alass., irt
the following letter tells how she was
cured, after everything else failed, by
Lydia E. PinkhanTs Vegetable Compound*
Mrs. Hayes’ First Letter Appealing to Mrs. Pinlcham for Help:
“Dear Mrs. Pivkiiam:—I have been under Boston doctors’treat
ment for a long time without any relief. They tell me I have a fibroid
tumor. I cannot sit down without great pain, and the soreness extends
up my spine. 1 have bearing-down pains both back and front. My ab
domen is swollen, and I have had flowing spells f> '"three years. My ap
petite is not good. I cannot walk or l>e on my feet for any length of time.
“The symptoms of Fibroid Tumor given in your lit Mo book ac
curately describe my case, so I write to y u for advice.-’—(Signed) Mrs.
E. F. 1 Laves, 252 Dudley St., (Iioxbury) Boston, Mass.
Note the result of Mrs. Pinkham’s advice—al
though she advised Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, to take
her medicine — which she knew would help her —
her letter contained a mass of additional instruc
tions as to treatment, ail of which helped to bring
about the happy result.
“Dear Mrs. Pixkitam: — Sometime ago I wrote to you describ
ing my symptoms and asked your advice. You replied, and I followed,
all vour directions carefully, and to-day I am a well woman.
“The use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound entirely
expelled the tumor and strengthened my whole system. 1 can walk
miles now.
“ Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is worth five dol
lars a drop. I advise all women who arc afflicted with tumors or
female trouble of any kind to give it a faithful trial.”—(Signed) Mas.
E. F. Hayes, 252 Dudley St., (Roxbury) Boston, Mass.
Mountains of gold could not purchase such testimony— or take
the place of the health and happiness which Lydia E. I’inLham’s
Vegetable Compound brought to Mrs. Hayes*
Such testimony should be accepted by all women as convincing
evidence that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound stands
without a peer as a remedy for all tho distressing ills of women; ail
ovarian troubles; tumors; inflammations; ulceration, falling and dis
placements of the womb; backache; irregular, suppressed or painful
menstruation. Surely tho volume and character of the testimonial let
ters we are daily printing in the ne waiters can leave no room for doubt.
Mrs. Hayes at her above addr-is will gladly answer any letters
which sick women may write for fuller information, about her illness.
Her gratitude to Mrs. Pinkham and Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound is so genuine and heartfelt that d;o thinks no trouble is too
great for her to take in return for her health and happiness.
frilly is it said that it is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound that is curing so many women, and no other medicine; don’t for
get this when some druggist wants to sell you something else.
