Mrs. Beachey held a place of honor, 435 feet up in the air, on the tiptop of the won- derful Tower of Jewels. From this aerie she was able to watch every erratic move of her daredevil son. She eried out only once. That was when he wrote the figures “1000” against the clouds, high above the two miles of completed exhibit palaces, significant of the looping of his one thousandth loop. 1 TENE ue STEVENS Repeating Shotguns The Stevens Hammerless costs no more than some hammer guns. .

Here will be a neutral ground where even nations en- gaged in warfare will display on a scale never before equaled their prog- ress in the arts, industries and sciences of peace. Within three months before the open- ing of the Exposition as many as 2,000 tons of consignments had reached San sBown to fllustrate the evolution of the. processes of manrufacture—as, for ex- ample, a display of a model of the first cotton gin in conmection with the mar- velous equipment into which it has evolved, Many of the displays will be espe cially adapted to study by the dele gates to great national and interna- tional congresses and conventions, of which more than 800, embracing al- most every phase of human activity, have voted to meet in San Francisco in 19158.

The nations are not attempt- ing to show everything that they pro- duce, but will lay especial emphasis upon those products in which they ex- cel. In the Danish display, for exam- ple, will be shown products of the Royal Danish porcelain factory at Co- penbagen. Japan in her exhaustive ex- hibit will display priceless works of art, loaned by direction of the imperial household and many of which could not be duplicated. From Italy will be shown historic paintings of the old masters, hitherto never exhibited in America in the originals. From China there have reached San Francisco se lections of exhibits collected under the supervision of the governors of the Chi- nese provinces. Rare silks and satins, carvings, inlay work in the precious metals, exhibits of the transportation methods employed in the old China and the modern methods used in the awakening republic will be shown. New Zealand will make a marvel- ous exhibit of its rare woods, of its fleeces, of its superb scenic charms. A large number of rare giant tree ferns from New Zealand will be found growing on the Exposition grounds. The Argentine Republic early set aside a larger sum than any ever ap- propriated by a foreign nation for rep- resentation in an American exposition. The modern cities of Argentina, the schools, churches, libraries, the great live stock and agricultural interests will be extensively portrayed, and the mutual interests of South America and North America will be emphasized in almost “every conceivable manner. From South Africa will be shown dia- mond exhibits and methods of extrac- tion. The magnificent Canadian dis- plays will review not only the wideiy known agricultural wealth, but will illustrate the scenic charms of the great Dominion, of snow clad moun- tain peaks, of farreaching forest, of inland lakes in chains of silver and rushing mountain streams. For Baby's Bath. If the baby is afraid of the water and cries and screams when taking his bath buy several prettily colored cork “bobbers” such as fishermen use. Throw these in the bathtub and baby will be so busy trying to catch them that he will forget to be afraid of his morning bath and will even learn to like it.—Mother’s Magazine.

A beginner at golf was playing his first game, and his opponent was strug- gling with his emotions as he watched the attempt to hit the ball.

The earliest case of the transfusion of blood from the veins of one person to those of another on record so far as we know is that of Pope Innocent VIII.,, who is said to have been suc- cessfully operated on in April, 1492. In 1667 the operation was performed both in France and England, apparent- ly with success, but it again fell into obdivion till 1824, when Dr. Blundell in his “Researches” proved the feasibility of the process.
