MERRILL was on duty at muster in Smith Framingham, Mass. One day the heat was so excessive that he made up his mind to get off the grounds and remove his regimentals, which includ ed a bright red coat He did not want to leave by the regular route for the Bake of discipline, so decided to get out across lots by the back way. To do so it was necessary for him to go across a freshly plowed field. When near the end of the field he beard a tremendous noise and, looking around, saw a bull coming toward him, snorting and pawing the ground and throwing the dirt up in heaps. The major decided not to stand on cere mony, but get out as best he might. He reached a stone wall which separat ed the field from the road and climbed over, none too soon, falling on the gravel roadway on the other side. Picking himself up, he was brushing the dirt off his clothes when a farmer by the name of Ferrln came along and asked him If he didn't know better than to excite the bull In that way and spoil his plowed ground. The ma jor didn't know what to say for an instant, but finally decided to stand on his dignity and, drawing himself to his ful) height, said: "My gcod man, maybe you don't known who I am. I would have you understand I am major of the regi ment. lam the editor of the Lawrence Telegram. I have been postmaster of our beautiful city of Lawrence. I have been commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic. I am. sir, the insurance commissioner of this glori ous commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Hon. George S. Merrill is my name, sir." The farmer looked on while he re lated his story with moirth opened wide and finally said, with a laugh, "Why don't you tell the bull?"— Bo ston linrald. Conceded.

Foley in New York Timea ART OF GOLD BEATING ONE OF THE OLDEST HANDICRAFTS IN THE WORLD. The Way a Little Square of the Yel low Metal Ia Expanded Into m Lance and Almoat Transparent Leaf by the Artiaan'n Hammers. The art of the gold beater is one of Ifiie oldest handicrafts In the world and among those which have changed least. Much of the decoration of Solo mon's temple Is believed to have been covered with gold leaf, hammered to the requisite thinness by hand, as It is today. The gold beater receives bis material not in the form of the sixty penny weight ingot in which it is cast, but In the form of a ribbon about an Inch wide and twenty-four feet loug. This ribbon is first cut into 20C squares and placed In the "cutch," which is a pile of square pieces of a peculiar paper, part animal and part vegetable in composition, the prepara tion of which is a secret The best cutches are made in London.. A square of gold is placed between each two leaves and the whole mass is ready for the first beating. This in done with an iron hammer weighing from twelve to seventeen pounds, while the cutch rests upon a granite block which is supported by a heavy wooden post Under the heavy, measured blows of the hammer the sheets of gold begin to stretch or expand until in half or three-quarters of an hour they have reached the edges of the cutch. They are then removed and with a thin strip of bamboo are cut into quarters, so that the 200 pieces become 800. Next comes the "shoder," a collection of 800 pieces of skin, four Inches square, made from the intestines of cattle. As in the cutch, each piece of gold is placed between two leaves of skin, and bands of parchment or vellum are slipped over the whole pile to keep it together. Another beating, this time with a hammer weighing from eight to ten pounds, now,follows. This takes about an hour, during which the sheets of gold are all the time expanding. The last stage is the "mold," which, like the cutch and the shoder, is com posed of alternate leaves of gold and skin, but the mold Is about five inches square and made up of gold beater's skin. The preparation of this is a Jeal ously guarded trade secret. The skin, like that lv the shoder, Is made from the intestines of the ox. It is translucent and not unlike rawhide In color. Although It will stand con tinuous beating without breaking, It will tear like a sheet of thin paper. The making of a single mold requires the intestines of 500 bullocks. Between each two beatings the skin Is rubbed with baked and pulverized gypsum. A mold contains 1,000 sheets. After the second beating the workman takes from the shoder a single leaf of gold at a time, handling It witb bamboo pinch ers and, when necessary, smoothing it with a rabbit's foot. With the strip of bamboo he cuts each sheet Into quar ters again, so that the original 200 have now become 3,200. One shoder, therefore, contains more than enough gold to fill three molds. The final beating In the mold Is done with a seven pound hammer and re quires from three to four hours. By this time the gold leaf should have ex panded again to the edge of the skins and should be of the requisite thinness, which is determined by holding It up to the light. If It transmits green rays it is done and will measure about one two-hundred-and-elghty-thousandth of an inch in thickness. The hammers used In beating gold are slightly convex on the face. The art of the workman consists In so strik ing that the gold will always be thin nest In the center. He must pound with evenness all over the square In order that the sheets of gold may ex pand without losing their form, but at the same time he must keep the thick est part near the edges, so that when the sheets are finally trimmed to size the thicker portions may fall In the waste, to be recast. No machinery has ever been devised which will do this successfully. The tools of the craft are Interesting and peculiar. The rabbit's foot is ex ceedingly soft and Just oily enongh to prevent the gold from sticking, and the bamboo pliers and cutting slips are the only things with which it Is possible to do this delicate work. The gold does not to the fibers of the reed as it does to steel. The gold beater performs all his work standing. The use of the heavy hammers In such continuous pounding would, one would think, Impose an al most intolerable strain upon the hands and arms. The men say, however, that their arms never ache. The only place where "it catches them" Is in the bend of the knee. The lack of strain upon the arms is accounted for by the fact that the hammer rebounds. It Is an astonish ing but by no means a rare thing to see a gold beater change hands while the hammer is in the air and without los ing a stroke.—Edward Williston Trent* In Youth's Companion. Hair Color. In the case of horses where the skin has been abraded by the harness if the galled region is left to itself the hair will grow in. but be colorless, while if oil Is applied freely to the abrasion hair of a dark or normal color will be produced, thus indicating that the color is ordinarily due to the secretions of the skin sinking down as a sediment to the base of the hair follicle, where it is absorbed by the shaft of the hair. "Sometimes," said Uncle Eben, "what passes for a philosopher is simply a man dat kin stand beln' hurt without hollerin'."— Washington Star. AGE SEVIN v
