"Mont persons," said tho hardware drummer, "hnvo tho Idea thnt If thero la ono thing In life n man doctm't hnvo to buy twice It la n grindstone. Tho fact Is thnt they nre among the beat Bcllera wo have. "Tho Ufa of a grlndstono Ib not rery long. From two to three years on a farm and rom n year to n year and n half In a blncknmlth shop put most of tlieni to tbe bad. It sometimes hap pens If a man drawn a poor stono that It will bo out of service Inside ot six months. , "There aro a good ninny things about a grlndHtono thnt tuoat poraon don't know. For Instance, n mlstaku most farmers make Is In leaving tho stone uncovered. When I wns n boy the muni plnco for tbe gTlndstone v.-:i3 out by the orchard, where It would be hnn dy for the men in the fields. Tho wlsu man nowadays bouses his grindstone. "Let n good, drenching rain como along and tho stono will absorb a lot of moisture. Often It never becomes wholly dry again. "Sumo peoplo have the Idea that let tliif,' the auu shine on a moisture-laden stono will bring It out all right. Usual ly tbo sun has a damaging effort. The defect will not bo noticeable for n time, but tho stono becomes soft and crum bles. ".Most of tho grindstones used in this country come from Ohio and Indiana. Cleveland 'In tho greut center of tho industry. Grindstones are made of a quurtzllko sandstone. Every grtmllir,' leaves now points of the stono protrud ing and they nover, as n rule, wear per fectly smooth. "Another reason why a stone Is cast aside after a couple of years Bervlco is that It wears down considerably mid too many revolutions becomo nereasary to sharpen the toolH. This wenr Is usiintly most on tho softest part of the stono and it acquires a Jlggly motion thnt Is not pleasant. "Thero Is practically no difference It' the quality of tho stones turned out mid tho dlfferenco In price, ranging for or dinary ones from (5 to $7, Is duo to the diameter of tbo framo and tho quality of the wood used, Many of tho sUmes sold to tho big ranches and farmers aro equipped with power attachments to bo run by windmill forco or gnsollno engine. "Tho fanner is tho best customer for grindstones. In later years tho black' amlths and machinists hnvo pretty gen erally taken to tbe use of emery wheels. These cost more, but they last a great deal longor." Charleston Nowa and Courier. CAN YOU FIND THE BALANCE? It Is, h rretfr Utilm Problem Ov IVItlcih ICsnorU Dlaftirree. One of my customers Is a man who hnn lurid tntorvfllH most of tho time, buHiftB occasional jmroxysma of Insan ity, Bays a writer in tlio uusiness wau a Magazine. One afternoon alwut two weeks ago he came Into my office after everybody else had gone borne. I lutd Just finished writing up my cash book and had ruled It off and brought down tbe balance on the debit lde. He mid he wanted to pay something on account, but that It must be entered on that day and not on the noxt To humor Win (aa I needed tho money) I agreed to scratch out ruy figures and Hive and to enter bis payment tb.it day. n Biarted by asking me what bal ance I had on hand, and, rather than bAve a row wltb an Itwane man, I read tbe ifwrea to kltu, lie wrote the oa a ! wrap of paper and divided tbe amount uj- mree, He then enld that be could divide any number by three that bad certain Icullarltle! and be mid that if any number that wa exactly divisible by three should be subtractoll from ttifc quotient be had obtained by divtd big tny cash balance by three tbe re mainder would also bo exactly divisible oy three. For Instance, $8,70 was exactly dl visible by three. So, baring divided my balance by three, bo subtracted $8.70 from tho quotient; uud be showed mo that tbo remainder could bo dl vlded by three. Ho then remarked that ho was go ing to pay mo a wbolo lot moro than that, and eo bo mu tit) cd tbo remain dor above mentioned by Itself and gavo mo bis chock for an amount equal to that product Ho then took out of Uh pocket a cheek that bo bud received for $400.20 and Indorsed that over to mo. I now noticed that my now balance, after entering these receipts, would bo exactly ton times my original balance I started In to make my entries, and bad proceeded only eo far n to get tlio old balance and tbo lines crnsod from my cash book, when somcthlusr happened. I found out afterward that uio lunatic nnd been taken wltb a vi olent frenzy nnd bad suddenly struck mo a terrific blow on tbo aide of my Dead. When I recovered conficlousncsa tho man bad dlBnppenred. Ho "iind taken tho checks bo had given me, as well as every cent from tbo cah drawer. Even worso than that, bo hnd torn up my cash book and thrown It Into tlio open grate, whero nothing remained of it but a buncu or nsbes and a few charred cinders. Absolutely tbo onlv fragment thut remained of It waa tbo credit sldo or thnt last day's work, which lay on tho floor near tho fire place. This contained only a few Items. Tho figures brought forward hnd boon burned off, and as I liad scratched out tbo balance (In red) and tho sum (in black), I hnd no record of what my biumco wns, nnd I could not nnd I can not remember It But I recollect his peculiar way : He divided my old balance by three, nnd rrom tho quotient bo obtained ho sub traded J8.70. Tho remainder ho mill tlplled by Itself nnd bo then gavo mo a check equal to tho product, be sides a check for $400.20, and I no ticed that after I should, make these entries, my new cash bnlnnco would bo Just ten times my old balance. I have bad two expert accountnnta figure at this thing, but their calcula tlous of my original balance do not agree. There is nearly ?20 dlfferenco between them.

See, who de termines tho thickness of the air en velope by noting the, dlfferenco between tbo time of (sunset and tbe complete disappearance of blue from tbe sky. The moment at which the bluo changes into black can bo observed quite easily wltb approximate certain ty by tbo naked eye when the air is clear, and by trigonometry may be ns ccrtalned the distance below the hor Izon of the sun nt the moment of change. By this means may bo calcu lnted the helghCof tbe smnllest II luminnted particles of oxygen und nl trogen, which give to the sky Its bluest tint by tho reflection of the smallest wavo lengths of the sun's light. The Instant of chnnge from blue to black Is j)OKslbIy a little difficult of exact observation, but the method is not moro doubtful than that based on tho observation of shooting stars. Tho nhootlng star method gives a result not greatly differing from tho vnntsb Ing bluo method. The former gives tho height of tho atmosphere at 100 miles. 8 (mill on One I.cjf. There appears to bo no end to tbe variety of health exercises, and tho lateRt Is the most novel of thorn all. "Standing on ono leg," asserts Stylltes, "is tho finest exerclso In tho world." He devotes a qunrtcr of nn hour by tbe clock to It every day, and on one mis guided occasion he actually kept bis balance for hventyflvo minutes nt n stretch. "It exercises every muscle In tbo body," bo declares, "nnd keeps me In tip-top condition. I should advlso your readers to begin wltb a mlnuto at a time. They will find It quite enough." Tit-Bits.
