PAYS TO SHOW APPRECIATION Results of Experiments Made Broad-Minded Way Have Been More Than Gratifying. The pride that most men of what- ever station take in their work can be utilized by making each worker feel that he is an efficiency engineer in his own sphere. If he is made to under- stand that the problem of efficiency is not a matter of abstruse calculation and lengthy red tape, but a simple process of obtaining the greatest re- sults with the least effort, he is bound to be interested. If the expert poses, not as a dictator, but rather as a teacher—and proves his ability for the role—the men, nine times out of ten, will respond. Another feature of this get-together type of proceeding that is important, is the giving of credit for good ideas to the originator. I recall a case in point, where the problem happened to be the designing of a simple system of cards to cover a complicated series of operations. A shipping clerk, whose interest had been aroused, offered a suggestion which resulted in cutting down the number of cards to be made out for one department two-thirds. It was customary to print in small let- ters on all the forms “Designed by the B. V. Co.” On these particular cards the man in charge of the work substituted “Designed by A. N. K.’— the initials of the shipping clerk. The latter, greatly pleased by this evi- dence of appreciation, at once set to work evolving other ideas, many of which were sound and well worth adopting. Naturally, the incident be- came noised about in the shop and served to convince the men of the broad-minded attitude of the expert.— Engineering Magazine. TRAINING AS POWER EXPERT Subject That in America Has Not Been Given the Attention That It Deserves. Power is one of the greatest factors in modern-day work. The thousand and one branches of it offer admirable | fields for conquests by vigor and brains. In the field of power a few concerns have assisted men to obtain vocational training. From the boiler room have risen men by successive stages to positions of grave responsi- bility. in the United States is commented upon as follows: “‘Power is a factor in all the im- portant affairs of modern life,” says a | writer and thinker, and necessarily the engineer, who makes that power, is also a factor in that the whole pur-' pose is not merely to ‘make the wheels go ‘round,’ but to turn them at a prof- it. Furthermore, electricity, the steam turbine and the waterwheel have made the engineer's vocation even ' more difficult, demanding a degree of operating skill that is well-nigh im- possible to acquire in some cases with- out special training. “We are told that of all the great nations, ours is the most deficient in | vocational development. Germany for- ty years ago saw its need and met it; ' Austria, Sweden and | England, Scotland, France, Switzerland, Norway, Denmark are all paying heed to it. If we wouldssuccessfully compete in our own chosen field with the large immi- | gration yearly coming to our shores we must find the means to equally educate our own people in their voca- | tions.” Fortunes in Sausages. Westphalia, in Prussia, is the home of the sausage. There, it is said, a trader will name no fewer than 400 dif- ferent kinds of sausage. A sausage ex- hibition was held recently in Germany, at which 1,000 varieties of sausages were shown. In this connection the story is told of a young Prussian who, though he had received an expensive training as a chemist, shut himself up in his lab- oratory, and instead of devising a new dye, safety match, motor engine, ex-' plosive, aeroplane or photographic lens, took pork, veal, olives, pepper, fennel, old wine, cheese, apples, cin- namon and herrings’ roe and from | them evolved a wonderful and totally original “wurst,” the best of its kind. He has amassed a considerable for-: tune from its sale. More Tractable as He Grows Older. “I find myself mellerin’ up as the years pass by,” confessed Hod Dur- pitt. “Formerly I would go into a frenzy over ’'most any unimportant thing, but when the ‘Mona Lisa’ was stolen I didn’t care a jam, and now that it has been recovered I still don’t care a jam. It used to be that when anything occurred that I didn’t approve of I forthwith swept a place and had a furious fit; but nowadays it has to be something of consequence and some of my business before I rend my raiment and throw dust in the air. Without doubt old age is creeping on me apace, as the feller | said.”—Kansas City Star. Versatile Da Vinci. When Leonardo Da Vinci was not painting Mona Lisa or modeling great equestrian statues or inventing can- non, catapults, flutes, mechanical lions, patent pumps or scaling ladders, he would amuse himself by little ex- cursions into anatomy, astronomy, physics, chemistry, philosophy, dietet- ics, the philosophy of dress or city planning. If all these activities are not enough, Da Vinci was also an author of treat- ises on painting and other subjects, and even on many an ocasion extem: vorized verses. In anjissue of Power neglect ! in this branch of vocational training | ENERGY FROM A SUGAR DIET Experiments Have Shown That It Has a Wonderful Effect Upon the Human Body. The physiologist who discovered that your liver and your muscles manufacture sugar while you sleep has been surpossed by the German physician who uses sugas dissolved in water as an excellent surgical dress- ing for all sorts of wounds. Drs. Jacques Pansot and Piere Mathieu have declared that when ani- mals eat sugar exclusively for long periods their weight at first decreases, soon begins to mend and then fall away again as the diet continues. Dr. H. Heald of Tacoma Park, D. C,, disagrees with the laboratory findings. He says sugar is comparable to gaso- line. As the latter is the fuel of the internal combustion engine, so sugar is the fuel of the human machine. Sugar, he says, is the staff of life, and man can produce more energy from sugar than from any other food. A distinguished British heart spe- cialist has lately proved the efficacy of lump sugar in the treatment of a man nearly eighty years old who was dying with a vicious disease of the heart. After all the usual remedial measures had failed one of the maids asked if there was any objection to feeding the sufferer lump sugar. The physician gave his consent and four ' lumps were given in a little water. These were repeated every four hours, and in a week he was a well man. Dr. Berzeller recommends to one of : the German medical societies the use | of powdered sugar in the treatment i of old, ill treated and neglected can- | cers. He says the application of ! sugar to the fetid parts lessens the dis- | agreeable odor and discharges. Fur- thermore, the general condition of the | patient improves and all hemorrhages | cease. Indeed, unless you have had a | long experience with cancer patients, | you are liable to be deluded into the | belief that the cancer has healed. "BRIGHTEN THAT NORTH ROOM | i Skillful Touches in Arrangement of Furniture and Draperies Will Accomplish Wonders. 1 would advise papering the room with a self-toned paper, light tan in color as near to the tint of sunshine as you can get. Your shades should, of course, match those in use all over . the house. Then make your drapery | curtains of tan art scrimm, just a | deep hemstitched hem at the bottom, and allow them to hang straight. Stain the woodwork white and give it several coats, finishing off with an enamel or egg-shell finish. For the center of the room have an “art | “square” made. This may be woven as the rag rugs are or crocheted or knit- ted. I prefer the woven rugs and beautiful solid effects with handsome borders now possible. : Try to have the rose color pre- dominate in rug and articles of fur- nishing for the bureau and chiffonier, pillows and couch cover. With white enamel furniture, the north room will be far from a cold, repellant room, and will be a transplanted sunshiny corner.—Ezxchange. To Break Up a Cold. The hydropathic treatment of a cold in the head is more reliable than any ' other one which scarcely requires the aid of a physician. It is as follows: In the morning after rising and at night before retiring wash the feet and legs as high up as the knees in cold water, then rub them with a rough towel and massage them till | the skin is red and glowing. In addi | tion to this, snuff tepid water up the nose frequently during the day and sip . with a teaspoon a glassful as hot as can be borne an hour before each meal and at bedtime. A few days is often quite sufficient for simple cases and obstinate ones yield if the treat- ment is prolonged. No medicines are required. If taken in the first stages of the disease a cold is broken up which might otherwise become a se- vere case of bronchitis lasting many . days or weeks. Rewards of Inventors. | It is not always the greatest inven- tion that brings the largest financial rewards. Roller skates are said to | have brought their inventor $3,000,000, : while nedrly half a million was real- ' ized by the man who first devised boot laces. The inventor of the safety pin, who took the idea from a reproduc- tion of a Pompeiian fresco, says Les Nouvelles, made $10,000,000. On the other hand, Charles Bourseul, who : discovered and described tue principle of the telephone in 1855, died poor. Michaux, the inventor of the bicycle, ended his days in the utmost penury, and Frederic Sauvage, who is credited with the invention of the screw pro- peller, was imprisoned and died bank- rupt and insane. Alabama's Iron Ore Deposits. The boom which followed the dis- covery of the extensive deposits of iron ore in the vicinity of Birmingham, Alabama, in 1882, was without prece- dent in the industrial history of the United States, and the rush to Birm- ingham was paralleled only by the stampedes which followed such dis- coveries as the Comstock lode in Ne- vada and the Alaska gold fields. The fron ores of Alabama, while inferior in quality to those of Lake Superior, have the advantage of being near de- posits of good coking coal and of the limestone requisite for fluxing, so that Birmingham, the Pittsburgh of the south, can manufacture pig iron cheap- er than any other district of the world. BOOKS, MAGAZINES, Etc. In the July American Magazine Stephen Lea- cock, who is called the “Canadian Mark Twain,” begins a new comic series entitled *‘Arcadian Adventures with the Idle Rich.” Under the title “The Part Money Plays in Marriage,” a man who has had twenty-five years’ experience asa husband reports some of his adventures in the marriage relation. Richard Spilland, 2 newspa- per man, writing under the title, “Through Hur- ricane and Flood,” contributes a wonderful story founded on actual experiences in the Galveston disaster. Ray Stannard Baker, writing another letter from the field in his series entitled “Seeing America,” describes a daily newspaper advertis- ing campaign conducted on behalf of the churches in Baltimore. Albert Hickman, contrib- uting an article entitled ‘“The Sea Sled,” reports experiences in developing a new type of fast mo- tor boat. Fiction is contributed by Marjorie Benton Cooke, whose serial story “Bamby’’ is making a great impression; Number 6606, who tells another “Boston Blackie” story; and Rebecca Hooper Eastman who writes a story entitled “That Aw- ful Bill,” whichis a report of an adventure treat- ing of a wife’s financial affairs. The June number of Populur Mechanics Maga- zine contains 332 articles and 340 illustrations. The cover design handsomely depicts a popular water sport ‘‘sharpie’” racing, a modified form of yacht racing, affording much excitement at little expense. “Playing the Game of War,” describes the means employed by the Naval War College to prepare its students for the exigencies of actual warfare. Something new in motor cars is a two- wheeled machine balanced by a gyroscope. There are many fine page views and page groups of views. Some of them show: various adaptations of the bungalow porch; the first newspaper printed in the English language; the new United States superdreadnaught *“Texas;” effects of a ‘“norther” in a Chilean harbor; amusements at the Panama-Pacific Exposition; artificial waterways in many lands; Mont Blanc’s aerial railway, etc. Both the Shop Notes and Amateur Mechanics departments are “written so you can understand it,” like the rest of the magazine, and contain many fine drawings and diagrams. A special feature of the Amateur Mechanics department is detailed instructions for constructing a house- boat. The July Popular Mechanics Magazine contains, all told, 335 articles and 356 illustraticns. Besides the editorial previously mentioned, H. H. Wind- sor discusses, “The Misplaced Factory” and “Sleeping on His Arms,” the latter treating of business and industrial conditions in the United States. There are many page views and groups of views, some of them showing; Guns used to guard the Panama Canal; the Cape Cod Canal, now nearing completion; the Alaskan govern- ment-built railroad routes; scenes attending the taking of Vera Cruz by the United States forces (six pages; ) pulling down the walls of Jerusalem; building military roads in the Philippines; a strange funeral custom of an African tribe, etc. The Shop Notes and Amateur Mechanics de- partments are full of practical, carefully prepar- ed material. Six pages were added to the maga- zine with the July number, and they were used te enlarge the AmateuriMechanics department. All the articles are “written so you can under- stand it.” New Advertis ements OUND.—Bunch of keys. Inquire at this of- fice. . 5925.2t OR SALE.—Good Ranger bicycle for sale.
