" SIMPLE VEHICLE JACK.
Handy and Inaxpanaive Device Far
Raiting Wagon Bodiae.
One of the simplest forms of jm'ka
for us In liftlnc the bodies of wagon
or other vehlelos Is Illustrated In th
acwmpanyluj! drawing. The device
can readily be made by any amateur,
and the construction Is IneMH-nslve.
The uprights of the Jack consist of
a slugle length of Iron IV, l n Inch,
bent double or to hairpin form, with
the lower ends secured in a block of
wood measuring 2 by Inches. The
ends of the uprights are tlxed into re
cesses In the block and are held In
place by means of bolts as Indicated
by dotted lines In the drawing. The

lever on which the vehicle axle Is sup
ported is made of strap irou measur
ing 1 by s Inch. This Is fulcrumed
between the uprights by means of a
bolt which passes through holes in the
sides of the uprights. There are a
number of such bolt holes to permit
of adjusting the lever to various
heights. The weight comes on the
short arm of the lever and Is lifted by
depressing the long arm.
To hold the long arm In depressed
position a rod is provided which Is
fastened to the lever at one end, while
the other end passes between the up
rights and is welded to a block of
metal. This Is adapted to bear against
the uprights and serves as a catch to
bold the lever at any desired adjust
ment The rod shown In the drawing
is three-eighths of an Inch In diameter.
A HUGE WATER SYSTEM.
Enormous Cost and Extent of tha Work
Needed to Supply New Work.
New Tork city adds another bl
city's population to itself every year.
In this way an Albany, a Bridgeport
a New Haven or a Grand Rapids Is
annexed every twelve months: In two
years a Jersey City is gained and In
five a Boston, a Cleveland or a Balti
more. In order to provide an adequate
supply of water for this growth of ap
proximately 115.000 a year a plan was
approved to obtain from the foothills
of the Catsklll mountains 500,000.000
gallons dally. The comprehensive plan
includes the development of tlie wa
tersbeds of the Esopus. itondout Scho
harie and Catsklll creeks, but at the
present time only tlie Esopus water
shed Is being developed with its avail
able 2C0I000.000 gallons of water daily.
Starting at the 130.000.000.090 gallon
'Ashokan reservoir, holding enough wa
ter to cover Manhattan to a depth of
twenty-eight feet and whose area Is
equal to all of Manhattan below Oue
Hundred and Sixteenth street an aque
duct 127 miles long Is being construct
ed which will pass under deep valleys,
the nudson, Bronx and East rivers and
the Narrows to Staten Island, supply
ing New York's boroughs, known as the
Bronx. Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens
and Hicbtuoud. Near Valhalla. N. 1'.,
thirty miles from the city hall, the aque
duct is Interrupted by the Kensico res
ervoir, which acts as an emergency
storage reservoir to prevent Interrup
tion of supply during the uuwatering
periods necessary for inspection be
tween Ashokan and Kensico reservoirs.
This reservoir will bave the largest
dam In the world, containing over
1.000.000 vards of masonry, and will
store 40,000,000,000 gallons of water,
w hich is sufficient to supply New York
for seventy-five days or cover Manhat
tan Island to a depth of nine feet Its
shore line is 30.2 miles long.
The total estimated cost of building
the 500,000,000 gallon aqueduct was
il"0,857,000, of which about $100,000,
000 bad been spent to March, l'J12.

Most Important Minerals.
The great volume of the mineral pro
duction of the United States, its tre
mendous increase during the last few
years and the wide distribution of the
important minerals were Indicated In
a recent address by George Otis Smith,
director of the United States geological
survey. The twelve most important
mineral products In the Uulted States,
in the order of value of annual out
put were stated bv Mr. Smith to be
coal. Iron, clay products, copper, pe
troleum. gold, stone, natural gas, ce
ment, lead, silver and zinc.
Preserved, Timber.
An English company Is engaged Id
preserving wood somewhat as the
housewife preserves fruit In a sweet
ening solution. Saccharin Is use. The
object is to render the timber immune
to the Inroads of damp, Insects and
fungi. The timber Is Immersed in the
solution and soaked at an elevated
temperature. The process is Intended
especially for railroad ties.
Production of Glass Sand.
Pennsylvania produces 30 per cent of
the sand used In glassmaklng in the
Cnlted Stntes-about 400,000 tons. The
average value of glass sand in Penn
sylvania, according to the United
States geological survey, Is $1.40 a ton.

HEALTH HINT FOR TODAY.
Tha Cold Bath.
No man. woman or child should
neglect to bathe at bust once a
day. In fact, cool baths or cold
plunges should le taken two or
three times dally. If t all con
venient. No one yet has ever
caught a cold through frequent
bathing. KverylKxly should lake
a cold bath once a day at least,
preferably In the morning. Men
who do manual labor should
bathe even oftener.
The only virtue In the bath
Is the stimulating effect which
It imparts. There being tu dan
ger In Its too frequent Indul
gence, there Is every reason why
all should cultivate a habit of
bathing several times a day.
The only danger Is when the wa
ter Is tin) hot and too much soap
Is ueL In this case slight skin
diseases might set In.
Frequent bathing at home has
never had any bad effects on a
person's health. Colds do not
come through the iros. The
mouth and nose are the only
parts of the body through w hich
colds are transmitted. The sea
son of the year, therefore, does
not necessarily have to ti? con
sidered. Some folks contend that they
have caught awful colds after
coming out of the Turkish bath.
Of course, but the cold was com
municated not from the effects of
the bath, but by the thousands
of "bugs" or genus which are
pent up In the room and are kept
alive by the steam.
HEALTH HINTJOR TODAY.
Curing a Headache.
Those who have headaches
must surely know that some
thing Is wrong In their organism.
A headache is a warning cry.
and It should be heeded, and no
stone should be left unturned to
find what Is the cause, for one
cannot successfully cope with
headache without knowing ex
actly why he has the headache.
The mlgrane attacks those who
are run down. Rest from work,
avoidance of fatigue, the proper
attention to diet, the use of some
tonic, may ward off the attacks.
A light laxative, taken Immedi
ately upon feeling as though a
headache might come, will often
free the system so that the head
ache can be avoided.
HEALTH HINTJOR TODAY.
Danger of 6ore Eyes.
Tersous with sore eyes, espe
cially if there is a discharge,
should be careful not to transmit
the disease. The towels they use
should be kept entirely apart
from the ones used by others and
care taken with the materials
used for dressing or treating the
sore eyes lu order not to infect
others.
All persons should bear In mind
the possibility of infecting them
with their hands when they are
handling unclean or infectious
material of any kind, especially
clothing or anything of a per
sonal nature w hich has been In
contact with diseased persons.
Some diseased people cause dan
gerous diseases In their own eyes
in this way.
Workmen engaged In occupa
tions which endanger the eyes
should employ protective meas
ures. Eye protectors, audi as
goggles or plain glass spectacles,
should be worn to protect the
eyes from Injury .from foreign
bodies, such as chips of steel,
emery dust, etc., where the ma
chinery or Implements In use are
not provided with eye protec
tive devices. No Injury to the
eye, however slight, is a trifling
matter.
A physician is the person to re
move a foreign body from the
eye when It cannot be removed
by simple measures, as by rub
bing the other eye, wetting a
corner of a clean handkerchief
and wiping It out or taking hold
of the eyelashes or the upper lid
of the affected eye and pulling it
down over the lower lid.
HEALTH HINT FOR TODAY.
What Dieting Means.
Many Intelligent persons, In
cluding not a few physicians,
sincerely believe that dieting Im
plies tlie eating of unpalatable
foods. This Is a mistake. Foods
that taste good are more apt to
digest well than unpalatable ar
ticles, but the Individual Is also
more liable to be tempted Into
dietary excess by the former
than the latter. This is all the
truth there Is In the notion.
Dieting means simply that the
Individual shall refrain from eat
ing things that are known to dis
agree wllh him and shall limit
the amount which he eats while
Judicious medication and rest to
the digestive organs are restor
ing normal tone and activity.

SEGUPB0ARD
WHEN SERVING PARTRIDGE. ,
PARTRIDGE Is roasted about the
same as chlrken. The birds
should roast about forty minutes
and lie basted often.
When broiled the birds should I
brushed Inside mid out with olive oil
or melted butter. The fire should lie
a moderate one and the birds browned
over IL
How to Cook,
Some special methods of preparing
the birds are given here.
Hroiicd I'artrl.lL-c.-Halve the birds
and flatten with a knife. Season with
salt and pepper or cayenne. Dip Into
clnritiod butter, then Into very line
breadcrumbs. Place over a very clear
tire and broil gently from twenty to
thirty minute. Send It to table with
brown mushroom sauce or a slice of
butter nut on when taken off the
grill.
The Favorite Method.
Toast Partridge. Chouse plump, ten
der voting partridges for roasting, put
a lump of fresh butter In each one and.
after tying thin sllceH of larding ba
eon over tlie breasts, ronst the birds
for eighteen or twenty minutes. They
can be roasted In a paper bag or in a
fireproof earthenware casserole, with
the addition of butter and bacon fat
only.
When cooked the birds may be carv
ed Into two or at most three piece and
should be served on croutons of crumb
of bread that bave been fried In but
ter.
Pour off the fat from the dripping
pan, add a little boiling water or Borne
stock made from partridge boned and
trimmings and serve the gravy sepa
rately In a sauce boat. On no account
add any flavoring to the gravy or the
delicate oroma of the partridge will be
lost.
Uaing Cold Birda.
Scalloped Partridge. The cold,cook
ed birds may be used for this. Cut
off all meat from the bones of tlie birds
and put the bones into a saucepan
with enough cold water to cover them
and a little salt. Ix-t them simmer
gently for three-quarters of nn hour,
ihen tlie bones must be taken out and
the stock strained. Add two teaspoon
fills of red currant Jelly, a few grains
of nutmeg and Rait and iwppor to taste.
I While the bones are cooking Unely
chop the meat.
Now brush the acnllop shells with
butter. You use china ones or even
the natural shells.
When the stock has been nicely sea
soned, add the chopped partridge, mix
It well and pour aoinc Into each of the
shells. Then sprinkle a luyer of brown
ed crumbs over each and put them In
the oven to get hot through.
