One of the best preventives then Is to heei the woll water from becoming contaminated. This means to keep everything out of the well. This means n tight platform; a platform Into which tho pump Itself fits snugly and Into which the well pipe Is fastened In such a way that i WOHK IIKNCII AVITlt TOOIi HOA. HIQKE aro more reasons tnan thero Is space to namo why nvnrf fnrmnr should have a tool box nnd bench combined ono which ho can easily move from one part of his farm to another as the occasion demands. Tho illustration shown hero is n portable repair shop In 7Zw-iBS' water from tho surface, or overflow water from tho pump platform, can not get down into tho well. In the case of dug wells tho platform must fit snugly over the entire top of tho well. Concrete Is a very excellent ma terial for tifco In making well plat forms which shall comply with the3e necessary features. Tho accompany ing drawing shows a unique- method of fastening pump and well plpo Into n coucrcto platform In snch a way as to keep all surfaco water from enter ing tho well. A Xuvcl Sugar Server. Some people put their teaspoons Into the sugar bowl. They even do It wheu tho Moon is wet with coffee or tea. It has even been known for a man to put his teaspoon almost di rect from his mouth Into the sugar bowl. This Is the sort of thing which keeps the people who caro for tho niceties or mo away from tho cheap restau rants. To ovorcomo this dlsagrccablo habit, a sugar server has been t- r r uutiBuu mm mu -N. . illustration here with shows It in tho position held by tho user. It looks Uko n small carafe or water bottle. You pour sugar from It as you would pour wntor from a water bottle. Dut you can pour only ono tea spoonful at a time, so there is no dan ger of spoiling jour tea or coffee by an overdose of sugar. Tho server la made of two glna parts, which un screw. Between them thero Is a measuring dcvlco which holds Just n teaspoontul of sugar. When tho server Is Inverted over a cup tho con tents of the measure pour forth. Meanwhile, tho sugar in tho lower hnlf of the server Is pouring upward. When tho server is returned to an upright position, this sucnr flows back to Its original place, leaving be hind In tho measure another tea spoonful ready for pouring. There cnu be no wnsto of sugar; it cannot become contaminated with dirt or dUcnse germs, nor can any person de file the contents by helping himself with n wet spoon or by putting his fingers into tho bowl. Safely First. Self preservation is said to bo the first law of nature. Self protection Is equally important. Tho Inventor of tho "safety first" dovico for sharp pointed hat plus evidently thought so. And, nl tho sumo time, ho proved that ho considorod f" Ills fellowmon VZI '(issar entitled to tho same degree of protection. Did you ever have to dodge tho sharp point of a lint plu which bobbed around us Its wearer's head bobbed7 If jou have, then jou will nppreclnto just what the simple safety device llliibtruted In tho accompanying plc turo means to a long-suffering people. It consists of a pleco of who In tho shape of a coll. It is Intended to blip over tho point or the hat pin nfter the latter has been placed In the hat. It Is not tho most artistic thing in tho world, but It certainly Is practical. If womon must wear hat pins, they should certainly bo willing to roppect tho eyes of peoplo who might have to como within rungoof the plu points If unprotected. Thew U no objection to women wearing them. The) .orvo tho purpose of hooping tho hat In place and at the mum) nine- mey nave boon known to which all kinds of tools, nails, bolts, nuts, washers, wire and Innumerable others ihlngs can be kept. As Is seen in tho illustration, It Includes a work bench. This wonderfully convenient ilnvlnn rnn bo pnalll' constructed. All you need tiro soruo boards, two small wheels, two hinges to hnug the Ud of your tool box on and n fow nails. To Pull It's Null". The strain on the average hammer handle in tho drawing of largo nulla Is often tho cause of tho hammer bond coming off or the hnudle break ing. A simple, yet wonderrullj prac tical device to overcome this difficulty Is -w - fuowu in me ac- '"' companylng Illus tration. A two-foot length of a suitably sized pipe Is used ns a second face of tho hammer head. When drawing u nnll, the plpo Is used as a second lever; a smnll block of wood Is placed underneath the hammer to give It the proper lever ago. By using the dovlec, it can be seen that tho entire force of tho drawing Is placed on tho hammer head and the nnll Is removed with greater oaBo nna with practically no strain at all on the hnndlo of the hammer. J International Harvested j Cream Separators v- form For Deep Sen Diving. A New Yorker believes he has solved tho problem of real deep sea diving by tho invention of tin all- motnl diving buU. Tho ends of the nrms or side projections are armed with hook und clamp pieces with which tho diver works when under water. Heretofore, the difficulty in reach ing depths of uny considerable couko qtienco was that tho terrific sea pres suro mado the feat Impossible. The Inventor of this deep sea contrivanco claims that It can bo successfully used nt any depth of water. Tho total weight of this suit is COO pounds. Whllo tho suit has not all tho comforts of a home, it lias a tele phone and nn electric light. Through a heavily reinforced rubber tube, at tached to the suit at tho shoulders, tho tolephono cord Is let down, ns is also the coid for tho electric lleht, which is attached to tho left arm. Tho transmitter of tho phone Is fixed In tho helmet and a receiver such as is used by "control" is fitted over the head. Thero Is a large lamp used with tho outfit that reminds ono somewhat of an nrc-llght. It Is suspendod on u spnr and operates on n cablo and pully, so that It may be swung urouud to suit tho diver's convenience and demands. Tho globes nre inqlosed In a bell-shaped outer casing of crystal-clear glatis, with a flat, thick plate-glass bottom. Tho six lamps glvo a total candlepower of lfiOO, and at a depth of 200 feet In "dark" water, this means nn illumination of not to oxeced a 10-foot radius. What will this Milt do? Ir must bo remembered that no ono has ever attempted to search depths below 200 feet. This suit makes such a feat practicable. There are millions of dollars uotn m coin nnd carzopx whirl. llo at tho bottom of tho sen too fur uoncaiu tno surface to permit of re covery when using tho old forms of diving apparatus. It Is to recover theso valuables that this suit was In vontcd. It will bo tested next year whon search will bo mado for tho steamer Merida, which sank off tho Virginia capes in collision with tho Admiral Fnrragut In May, 19U. The cargo of tho sunken vessol contulued $90,000 worth of valuable lumber, which will not bo damaged by the salt water. Thero was also thou sands of dollars belonging to Mexi can refugees on board. The result of tho oxporlment will determine the worth of tho Invention.
