Very Hard Ships.
The class ti history was wrestling'
with the terrible experiences ot tho

when tho teacher asked one to de
scribe the hardships of the patriot ar

Melting Aluminum.
While charcoal should be invariably
used In melting brass and bronze,
states the Brass World, It is not only
useless in melting aluminum, but dan
gerous. Aluminum Is so light that the
charcoal Is apt to become intermin
gled with it, and the castings made
from it will have small specks and
pieces in them.
Dally Thought.
Just to bo good, to keep life purfl

one's spirit always sweet, and to
avoid all manner of petty anger and Ir
ritability that Is an Idea as noble as
It Is difficult.
