Cow bells that chime on the western plains, sheep bells that tinkle gn the big American sheep ranches, bells for grazing horses and mules and, accord- ing to Popular Mechanics, all kinds of bells for the farm and ranch are made in one factory, which stands on a hill- side street in a little town in Connecti- cut, The metal for the bells 18 received at the factory in large, flat sheets of thin fron direct from the rolling mill and is passed under a steam driven cutter, which turns out the properly shaped pleces like patterns for a double bladed ax. Then a ring for a clapper is fas- tened into the center of each plece, sand It is spanned with a little iron strap for a handle. Finally the plece Is bent down into the familiar bell shape and its slides riveted together on the anvil The bell 18 now in shape, but it sill Incks tone and color. These are gained by a coating of brass and a bath in a flery furnace, In nests of four or five the bells, ranging in slze from the lit- tle three Inch sheep bells to the seven Inch cow bells, are placed, with a mix ture of charcoal and filings tween them, in plumbago crucibles, the lids of which are held in place by a plastering of wet clay. These are then immersed in the fire. Within the ecru cibles the brass spreads itself in a thin coating over the imprisoned bells, and the bell obtains its clear note.

There was perhaps more satire than gratitude in the reward bestowed by a French lady on a surgeon for bleeding her—an operation In which the lancet was so clumsily used that an artery was severed and the poor woman bled to death.

Itwas worse than death. My husband spent hundreds of dollars for physicians’ praseiiptions and treatment without avail. Finally we moved to Bosque county, our pres- ent home, and one I happened to see an advertisement of Chamberlain's Colie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimonial of a man who had been cured by it. The case was so similar to my own that I concluded to try the remedy.
