A few weeks ago the editor was""takeu
with a very severe cold that caused him
to be in a most miserable condition. It
was undoubtedly a bad case of la grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous be took
immediate steps to bring about a speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therein,
we concluded to make a first trial of the
medicine. To say that it was satisfac
tory in its results, is putting it very
mildly, indeed. It acted like magic and !
the result was a speedy and permanent j

THE AMERICAN MACHINIST.
Hia Work Esteemed the World Over
Wherever Machines Are ITaedL
The. fame of the American machinist
extends everywhere; his ingenuity in
planning and his skill in execution are
known wherever man uses machines
and tools. If there is any one branch
of work in which he excels more than in
another it is in the building1 of special
machinery, by which is meant ma
chines not kept in stock or regularly
manufactured, but specially devised
and made for special uses, says an ex
change. For instance, man designs some ar
ticle of use which he-works up by hand,
or by the aid of machinery. To pro
duce this article in quantities, at such
a cost that it can be sold at a profit,
special machinery is required. The
designer or inventor takes the article
to the builder of machines and says:
"Can you make a machine that will
make these things, and will you guar
antee it to work?" It is altogether
probable that the machine builder an
swers yes to both questions, because
here is practical- nothing that he can
not do.
Special machinery is built for a wide
variety of -uses. As the knowledge of
American skill in this direction, now
long familiar, has spread, orders have
come from all over the world and spe
cial machinery is sent from here also
for vise in enterprises installed or
conducted by Americans in foreign
countries.
Such machinery, for various uses, is
shipped from this country almost every
where. One big machine shop that
is largely engaged in the pro-
uction of special machinery sends
robably a third of its work out of the
country. It has sent machines to every
land.
ART AND DOLLARS.
One Fainter Who la True to Hla
Ideals.
I have a- friend whom I shall venture
to call a "poor artist," for I know that
She is poor, and gets his living, such as
it is, by painting, says a writer in Scrib-
ner's. I cannot pretend to judge his
work, but I have had ample proof that
he is devoted, laborious and will not
sacrifice his convictions for gain or
(popularity. Perhaps he is not so singu
lar in this, but what, as my experience
goes, is a peculiarity of his is that he
is not in the habit of cursing the "Phil
istines." His view seems to be that, as
he paints to suit himself, it does not
comport with his self-respect to blame
people whom his painting does not suit
for refusing to buy it or for being un
able to understand it. My friend, as I
have said, is poor and is likely to re
main so, but he appears really content
with his work and his relative poverty.
I.confess that his attWude is a com
fort to me and that in his patience and
modesty and generous fidelity to his
ideal he is a model whom some other
artists perhaps artists generally
might study with advantage. He puts
into his work the best he has to give
and that, in substance, is what the
great critics have insisted is the source
of the greatest, value in art. Of course
a man's best, so far as concerns his
talent, may be much or little, but what
ever it is he will hardly get it into his
work if he is thinking chiefly of the
money return or if he is habitually re
sentful because he does not get the
money return.
Origin of Polo.
Polo is one of the oldest games known
to civilization, says an exchange. It
was played by the young swells of
IHassa on the tableland of Thibet,
between the Himalayas and Kwenlun
mountains, many centuries ago. Trav
eling westward, it reached the Byzan
tine emperor, Manuel Comnenus I.,
about the middle of the twelfth cen
tury. He played it with great effect.
It was called "pulu," which is Thibetan
for ball. In 1871 it was introduced into
England by some cavalry officers who
had learned it in India. Being in Eng
land, it had to come here. Our "shin
ney" and "hockey" and the lacross of
the Indians are modifications of polo.
We not only play the game on horse
back, but in water and on roller skates.
