THE HURON- EXPOSITOR.,
How Chains Are Made.
A bronzed workman, whose bared arm
▪ awung a hammer with rythmio best upon an
anvilestood in the glare of a forge fire in a
banding near the Pennsylvania railroad sta-
tion in Jersey City forging an iron chain.
Perapiration poured down his face and bared
ohest, but he kept steadily at his work. He
turned met link after link with remarkable
repidity and dexterity. Half a dozen forge
fires were ablaze about him, and other men
as big -chested and strong-armed as he were
forging also, with their shirts thrown wide
open at the throat, their sleeves rolled up to
their elbows, Had leather aprons bound
around their waists. The boss of the forge,
a rotund, jolly -faced man, who was in his
Shirt sleeves also, gazed at the workmen
with pride.
" They're tonere," he said, " whose work
beats the work done by machines, and that
aort of thing don't happen now-atdays you
know. In chainonsking the human hand is
more trustworthy than any machinery yet
invented to do its work. An odd thing
about chain making hereabouts is that you
will hardly ever find a native American en-
gaged in it. In 17 years of business I never
had a native chain ineker at work. Most of
there are Englieh, although I once had a
German and twice an Irishman who could
make chains. It is exhaustive of vitality
because of the heat the laborer has to endure
while at work. Amerieans prefer trades
where they can werk their brains more and
their vital. strength less, and they ere right
aboat it."
One of the werkinen in showing the
method of makingand welding a link select-
ed the most difficult part of the work. It
was the fitting and welding of a big iink
around a hook. He heated a bar of iron six
inches in length to a white heat, bent it into
the shape of a U with three Islows of his
hamraer, and slid ft back into the fire again.
It was vrhite het again whet he drew it out
and thrust it intothe eye of the hook and
beat the open ends together into the form of
a link. That was called "searfing" the link.
The link was heated a, third Mme and slip-
ped over a shank of iron beside the anvil.
Then he lowered ovehethe ends of the link a
bar of iron, called a siaedge, with a hollow-
• ed end that exactly fitted over the round
surface of the link, beat his hammer upon
the swedge, and welded the ends of the link
together, making a perfectly smooth and
<complete link.
" Ordinary observers," tha forge owner
said , " would not notice the epecial dexter-
ity that is shown in that work. I refer to
the singular flexibility of -that workman's
wrist. Without that remarkable flexibility
he could not make a chain. You would dis-
cover that fact at once if you, were to watch
a horseshoer, who has all' the muscular
strength of arm and wrist 'that a chain
maleer possesses, attempt to scarf and weld
a link, Elia efforts would. be clumsy and in-
. effectaal, and he would have tit give up the
job. Chain makers begin as apprentices
generally before they are nine years old. In
Staffordshire, where most of the chain
makers who work in the vicinity of New
York come from, bays and girla are set to
learn the trade when. they are eeven years
old, Women also work at chain making
with the boys at Staffordshire. : They make
light iron chains with small links. Chain
makers make good wages, from $3 50 to $4
per day, and they acquire a good compe-
tency if they work eteadily. Rut the work
is, as I have said, so exhmusting, that few
chain makers work steadily. Their working
hours average about six hours a day, aed,
considering the eharacter of the work, thet
is a long and mighty hard day's work. It
represents an abundant amount of sweat of
brow for the pay."
" What are the best chains VI
I'he pest °hiss of work is the small pul-
ley chains," he replied, " and weeny people
are surprised when they are told the fact.
Most folks looking at the cable ehains made
for war ancl navy yards imagine that they
are examples of the beat end most difficult
work. Bat, as a matter of feet, they are
classed as the commonest end erisiest work.
The chiiin maker, who shapes add welds the
big links, has two or three helpers to aid
him, and the links, because of , their size,
retoin heat so long that the worklof making
the links is expedited. In ahe smaller
chains the maker has to work with increased
epeed and dexterity because the links cool
rapidly. " The links have to bea more per-
fectly welded in the mailer chais. It is in
this one prime essential of perfent welding
that hand work lays away oi4 machine
work in thoroughnesse Imperfeet links are
turned out by machines very ftequently,
but that never happens when thay are made
by the hand of a workman that knows his
business. The best chains in the world are
known as Lord Ward chains, an& are madet
on the other side of the water froth material;
taken from the Earl of Derby's mines.
Hand made chains cost twice as much as
the machine made, but, on the other hand,
they. are twice as good and they last twice
as long.
" Chain making isn't much of an industry
in tints country, despite the good *ages earn-
ed by good workmen, This forge of mine is
the only one of any pretensions in this
vicinity. There are other forges in Trenton,
Philadelphia, Boston and Troyt and that
about finiehes the list. In Troy a colony of
chain makers makes fair wages, and many
of the workmen own their own bottles. They
turn out a large part of the eluting used by
Uncle Sam."—Ex.

The Usefulness of HODey.
A writer in the Horticultural times ex -
preens surprise that honey is ao seldom
seen on the tables of the people of this coun-
try. " Honey," he says, " is al,t once a
valuable medicine and food. Foul air, im-
proper ventilation, sudden changes ot
weather, the exposure of lungs and4hroat to
a damp atmosphere are the source of no end.
of throat and bronchial troubles. A free,
regular and coostent use of honaa is prob.
ably the best medicine for throat troubles
there is. It is a most wholesome and
economical substitute for butter, being as a
rule hail the price of that article.' Honey
is of more service in our cooking than many
people imagine.
" Honey, may, indeed, replace' sugar as
an ingredient in the cooking of almost any
article of food. In rid! puddings the writer
invariably uses honey instead of sugar ; the
favor is much more delicious. Fot preserv-
ing moat kinds of fruit, honey is far prefer-
able to sugar, as ih has the quality' of pre-
serving for a. long time in a fresh stete any-
thing that may be laid in it or mixed. with
it, and preventing its corruption in a far
superior manner to sugar. For inany
medicinal purposes honey is invaluable. To
town residents who may be faded and look
care wore after the excitement of lete hours,
-when the skin becomes dry, red and harah
looking, try the effects of rubbing !,gently a
thin coating of honey on the face before go•
ing to bed. It is one of the finest *cosmetics
in the world.
Suffering For OtherS.
In a. Own ita Belgium, while a church was
being erected a weather cock had to be put
on the steeple, and, as the staging was not
high enough, one man had to stand on the
broad ahoulders of another, who heeded up
the pan of hot coals and the melted leaa.
When the weather cock wits finialsed, the
man cleacended and the on -lookers took
breath, bat the broad staiuldered nian ciente
down slowly and unstcanly, and on 'teaching
the ground he fell. His shoulders, arms
and breast were covered with terribleburne.
While his comrade, whom he bore on his
shoulders was soldering the weather cock,
the boiling lead was running down drop' by
drop on him, and though tormented by fear-
ful pains, he had not moved, as 41sy start
would have sent the other man to his death.
This hero suffered that another mIght live.

The device avoids all those objections and

The New Italian Rifle.
The weapon is 1 .2 meters long, exclusive
of the bayonet ; and of 6.5 millimeters cali-
ber. The most important factor in connec-
tion with'the rifle is the smokeless powder
;cartridge, whicia owing to its light weight
and small size, permits the number of cart-
ridges carried by the soldier to be aug-
mented to 160. The initial velocity of the
bullet is 720 meters per second, and with
regard to its penetrative force, it is said
that the ball will pierce two mattresses and
two planki 12 centimeters (5 inches) thick,
at a distance of 1,200 meters, or 4,000 feet.
Loading is effected by, means of magazines
containing five cartridges so arranged that
a repeating fire may be maintained until
the magazine is exhausted. A few experts
who witnessed the experiments assert that
ehe new rifle is too short ; but the major-
ity were convinced that the weapon is the
best and most destructive at present exist-
ing among European armies.
Strychnine for Snake Bite.
A curious instance of one poison killing
another is reported from Yackandandah,
Victoria, where Dr. Mueller has recently
edministered strychnine in cases of snake
bite. A solution of nitrate of strychnine in
140 parts of water, mixed with. a little
glycerine, is prepared, and twenty minims
injected hypodermically at intervals of -ten
, to twenty minutes, according to the viru-
lence of the attack. In some cases a grain
of strychnine has been given thus withie a
few hours. The two poisons are antagonis-
tic. Out of the hundred patients treahed
this way, some of whom were at the poust
of death, there was only one failure. Any
part -of the body will serve for the injec-
tion, but Dr. Mueller chooses a part near
the snake bite.
A Device to- Enable Merchants to Utilizo
the High Shelves.
A much-neeried and practical device for
reaching high shelving, utilizing the -hith-
erto unoccupied. space in high stoles, maks ,
ing the upper shelving as valuable as the
lower, is shown by the accompanying illus-
tration. The ladder, having rolls at top
and bottom. is easily nrouelied by the Valle
Car Lighting.
At a recent meeting of the New England
Railroad Club the subject of debate was the
lighting of railroad cars. The drift of
opinion seemed to be that mineral oil la,mpst
with oil at 300° fire test, furnished the most
brilliant, safe, and economical light. Cosb
to equip a car with five Sherburn lamps,
$165. Next to this came the compressed
gas system—the Pintsch system being the.
one most extensively used. Cost to equip a
car, $400.• The gas is carried in tanks under
the floor of the car. The compression is
from 90 pounds to 225 pounds to the square
inch.

If I Only Had Capital.
" If I only bad capital," a young man said
as he puffed at a ten -cent cigar, I would
du something."
" If I only had capital," said another as
he walked away from a dram -shop, "I would
go into business."
Young man with the cigar, you are smok-
iog away your capital. You from the dram -
shop are drinking yours and clestroyins
your body at thie same time. Dimes make
dollars. Don't wait for a fortune to begin
with.
Our men of power and influence did not
start with fortunee. You, too, can make
your mark if you will. But you must stop

time in idleness.

ously., enough, that it is indelibly fixed on
my mind by this process, bat all the same,
am relieved vf the weight of it ; 'if it stays,
well and good, if not, just as well. I, think
that Abe day will come when philosephers
and teachers will realize that the mind is
not a thing to be overloaded any mbre than

jurious in the one case as in the other."—

its disappointments, but when ,the colonel

" Of course I'll hear yoa colonel," she

" Yes, colonel."

The colonel appeared to be real anxious,

Too Much Memory.
" Therois such a thing as an actual waste
of raw material," said a middle-aged wo-
man, as she closed a book in which ehe bad
been writing, "and I think that the effort to
remember everything that is of importance
is one of that sort of wastes. For my part
I cannot see the sense in taxing one's mem-
ory to remember things that might just as
well be written down, and are there ready
and waiting on demand. I am led to thie
sermouette by the fact that I have just had
a call from a friend who prides herself on
her excellent memory, She declares that
she halm% the slightest need of memoranda
when she gots shopping, and, as a matter of
fact, never forgets any thing that she really
wants to buy. Of course, it's all very well
for people Who have no great responsibili-
ties, but, as I said before, I think there are
_more profitable ways in whieh one ean use
up one s vitality. Now, this same lady just
gave me a couple of recipes. She laughing-
ly told me that I must not write thern
clown, but must remember them% adding
that she hadn't the slightest use for a book
of recipes.
" Now, I am free to confess that I have.
I not only write down recipes, bat a thou-
sand and one things that I would like to
have at hand, and which I fear I may, not
remember with accuracy. I have a great
many things to look after, and i find that
eometimes I can't recall things in just the
shape I would like, so long ago adopted
the plan of keeping a book of facts and ideas
as well as recipes and important informa-
tion for the household. It leaves my mind
free for other things. It seems to me, as
far as I nen discover that one's mentality is
a sort of pack -horse. It will bear an enor-
mous load without rebelling, but there is a
limit, and, the first thing we know, we find
that that limit is reached. I believe that if
people would make a Practice of forgetting
many things, or at least making notes of
various facts in order -to save themselves the
trouble of remembering them, they would
live longer and die more peaceful deaths.
There is no consideration shown to the av-

England than a part of Ireland. We ob-

?, The Penalty.
Everythin on earth has its penalties and
its compensations: There is no doubt that
a fine musical education offers its possessor
supreme delights of which common mortals
cannot partake. For instanee, there is
Professor X, who was good enough to take
me to a recital of classicel music. He, in
common with others—foreign ladies and
gentletrien—went into raptures over the per-
fornianee. Some of them actually writhed
with joy.• The professor told me twenty
times :
" Zis is vontlerful Zis is a miracle!"
" The Seen closed aith bravos and ap-
plame that reut the air, and a tableau I
shall never forget—the immensely tall and
stout professor embracing tbe extrercielyr
small and thin old gentleman, who was the
hero of the hour, so warmly .that for a mo-
ment he dieappeared in. the folds of the heal -
',kin coat and appeered to have been swal-
lowed whole.
After he came out.alive I belieQ he was
carried in the arins of his admirers to some
festive spot where bations of wine and
'lager were poured out in his hover.
Alas ! to me it was an an unknown ton -
tongue. I waited for a melody. I longed
for an emotion. It appeared to me that
musichad gone into the higher mathematics
and done with tunes forever. Anti there the
professor had the belit of me. But later in
the week I had the beat of him.
Bow 1 enjoyed listening to my friend,
playiog her owe accompaniment singing the
Three Fishers " and the Clang of the
Wooden Sharon " for me. And when she hid

Men, wiping the dew of agony from hie fore-
head, end gasaitar,

de good angels permit &it ehe should dry to

" You don't mean that you didn't like it?"
I said. .
" It he treadful. , It giff me a colic, in my
head," said the professor.
"And you so musical ?" J.
" Dat is de very reason," be replied.
There was no affectatlon in the professor's
agony. He felt -it all, as he heel felt joy in
that classical music which was incomprehen-
sible to me. That is the penalty attached
to a fine nansical taste and education,
