Inventor of the Lend Pencil.
History has failed to record the
name of the great gcuiu? who gave to
the world that most useful little in
strument that should be in the posses
sion of every man, woman and child in
every civilized community on the
globe. We have heard all about the
discovery of burnt snuff and the sew
ing machine and typewriter and all
that, but the inventor of the lead
pencil has, evidently, gone down into
the shadow of oblivion, "unwept, un
honorcd and unsung." It is a pity.
Inventors, such as he who gave to the
world such an invaluable instrument
as this, the genius who blessed woman
kind with the thimble, the wonderful
being whose happy thought was the
occasion of the greater blessing to
womankind?the hairpin?and a few
other human beings who added happi
ness and prevented much sinning in
the world, such as swearing, by in
venting the most useful, although
simple articles, that have proved
themselves to be indispensable to
humanity, would be sainted if their
names were only known. And the
genius who gave us the lead pencil
would come next to the hairpin man.
Everybody possesses a lead pencil.
Perhaps it would be better to state it
truthfully, as this is a public matter,
and say that everybody possesses a
lead pencil until he loans it,
and it seems as though the greater
part of humanity arc in possession of
lead pencils that do not belong to
them. It is a remarkable fact that
upon the instant of lending the pencil
the lender forgets the act. It becomes
convenient for the borrower to do the
same. This occasions my remark,
relatively based on the remark of
Abraham Lincoln, concerning fooling
the people, which is that a man may
have his own pencil some of the time
and somebody else's all of the time,
but he cannot have his own lead pen
cil all of the time. It is perfectly safe
to take a lead pencil out of the hand
of anybody who is using it and indig
nantly exclaim that it is yours. It is
the height of extravagance to possess
more than one poncil or to have one
in sight when not in use. The wise
man goes into hiding when he sharp
ens his pencil, as a measure of safety
for both pencil and knife. These pre
cepts should be pasted in everybody's
hat%

had he seen a lead pencil, for while
the dough grew around the apple no

object of this story. One of the great
factories and the head of that factory
was sought, and he said this about
the matter, with every evidence of
veracity ; he having no occasion for
Is the external indication of a con*
dition of the blood which produces a
fiery irritation almost unbearable. It is
a mistake to think that this local irrita
tion is the disease itself?it is simply an
evidence of a disordered condition of the
blood.^The seat of the disease is in the
blood, and this is why the various salves
and ointments usually applied have no
effect; whatever. They cannot possibly
reach the origin of the trouble; only a
blood remedy can do that. S. S. S. is
without a:a equal for blood diseases, and
promptly md permanently cures Eczema
and removes all taint.
Much torture could be avoided if the
first itching symptoms were heeded and
a course of S.S.S. taken promptly, as ap
parently insignificant skin irritations
usually develop into the worst form
of Eczema unless properly treated.
It matters not what other treatment
has been tried in vain, S. S. S. always
gets at the seat of the disease, and
forces it out.
Mr. "William Armstrong, an old resi
dent and highly respected citizen of
De Pere, Wis., writes on April ist, 1896,
MR. .WILLIAM ARMSTONG.
"I have bsen a sufferer for eight years
with that horrible disease, Eczema, at
times all over my body, and no person
can describe the burning and itching I
had to endure.
The extent of my sufferings can be
appreciated when I state that my con
dition was such that I could, not take
my bed, and for three months I never
laid down, but was compelled to sit in
my chair when not moving around. 1
was treated by the best or physicians
with no success, and tried all the patent
medicines recommended for Eczema,
without any good results. I then went
to the Indiana Mud baths, with the same
results, and then to Mt. Clements, the
celebrated medical resort, where the
treatment partially helped me, but the
disease shortly returned. I went to
Florida, thinking that a change of cli
mate and water and the citron fruit
might cure me, but found no cure.
i"I then tried S.S.S.and after three days
the burning and itching subsided, and
I continued to improve steadily until I
was well?entirely cured. After com
mencing S. S. S. I never put an exter
nal application to my limbs or any part
of my body. You may refer to me any
person suffering from Eczema. I will
always keep the S. S. S. in my house,
for I consider it the best blood medicine
of the prese at age. I am seventy years
of age and am now in perfect health."
For real blood diseases relief can only
be obtained by using a real blood reme
dy. ?? So many people who are sufferers
from an obstinate or deep-seated blood
disease make the mistake of taking rem
edies which at best are only tonics and
cannot possibly reach their trouble. * It
is in just such cases which other so-called
blood remedies cannot reach that S.S.S.
has made some of the most wonderful
cures.

deceit a this simple explanation :
"I have to laugh at the queer ideas
some people have about pencils. You
will scarcely believe it, but the opin
ions of people who know nothing
about it seem to be divided between
the melting of the lead and pouring it
into the hole in the wood and cutting
out the lead to fit the hole."
The great manufacturer laughed
loud, long and heartily over his re
mark, as almost anybody else would
who happened to he posted in the art.
But there arc those who may know
how tho hole got into the macaroni,
who cannot imagine how the lead got
into the pencil,.and it is just possible
that the pencil manufacturer docs not
know the trick about the Italian comes
tible. But he had his laugh out and
went on to say :
"We don't do it in that way. We
have a simpler and less costly process.
Bless me, how could we sell the best
pencils in the world, in all shapes and
qualities, for a cent apiece and less,
if we had to carve them out of solid
lead, or melt the lead and pour it in
the hole ? Few people know how it is
done, but I will enlighten you. The
part that goes into our pencils other
than the lead is cedar and comee from
the swamps of Florida. It is obtained
from the fallen trees that lie there.
There arc men there who make a busi
ness of supplying to pencil manu
facturers this cedar in blocks, which
are sawed to the length of the pencil,
some thick, to receive the lead, and
others thin for the p'cce that is glued
over the other containing the lead.
The blocks arc sawed for four pencils
each. The groove is made by a saw,
and in this the lead lies.
"I know," continued the manufac
turer, "that not one out of ten thou
sand persons has the least idea of
what this lead is. Sec, here is a fine
black .powder ; that is praphitc and
costs somewhere about 25 cents a
pound. The white substance is Ger
man clay. It comes across the ocean
as ballast in vessels and all it costs is
for freight. We mix clay and powder
together and grind them in a mill,
moistening the mass carefully during
the process, until the two are thor
oughly assimilated and reduced to a
paste that is about tho consistency of
putty. Here arc the dies for the
leads, into which we press this paste
of graphite and clay. Each die is the
size of a pencil lead, saving in length.
There arc four leads in one of these.
After pressing they arc cut into the
proper length and baked in an oven
kept at a very high degree of heat.
That finishes the simple process of
making the lead, and its hardness is
regulated by the greater or less amount
of clay mixed with the graphite?the
more clay the harder the lead.
"These leads are kept in hot glue
and arc placed in the grooves as the
blooks are made ready. "When the
lead is put in there snugly and for
ever, the thin block is glued to the
thick one and left to dry thoroughly.
When dry the blocks arc run through
the machine and cut apart. Next
they are run through a machine that
shapes and burnishes them, and then
tied in bunches, boxed and sent out
complete. The different grades in
value are made by the more or less fine
manipulation of the graphite. As to
the cost of our pencils, here is a pen
cil of good finish that is an average
pencil found in business life. That
pencil costs Uj a trifle more than a
quarter of a cent to get ready for mar
ket. We sell to dealers at a hundred
per cent, profit. An operator on one
of our machines can easily make 2,500
of such pencils a day. That is the
whole story, honest and true. Now,
what I want to know is, when pencils
are so cheap and good and handy and
useful and all that, what excuse can a
pencil stealer have for his awful
crime ?"?Philadelphia Times.

Effect of Water on Horses.
A horse can live twenty-five days
without solid food merely drinking
water; seventeen days without cither
eating or drinking, and only five days
when eating solid food without drink
ing.
An idea prevails among horsemen
that a horse should never be watered
oftencr than three times a day or in
twenty-four hours. This is not only
a mistaken idea but a very brutal
practice. A horse's stomach is ex
tremely sensitive, and will suffer un
der the interference, causing a feverish
condition.
Feeding ahorse principally on grain
and driving it five hours without water
is like giving a man salt mackerel for
dinner and not allowing him to drink
until supper time?very unsatisfactory
to the man.
If you know anything about the
care of horses, and have any sympa
thy for them, water them as often as
they want to drink?once an hour, if
possible. By doing this, you will be
not only merciful to your animals, but
you will be a benefactor to yourself,
as they will do more work ; they will
be healthier; they will look better,
and will be less liable to coughs and
colds, and will live longer.
If you are a skeptic and know more
about horses than any one else, you
are positive that the foregoing is
wrong, because you have had horses
die with watering them too much, and
boldly say that the agitators of fre
quent watering are fools in your
estimation, and you would not do
such a thing. Just reason for a mo
ment, and figure out whether the ani
mal would have over-drank and over
chilled its stomach if it had not been
allowed to become over-thirsty. A
horse is a great deal like a man. Let
him get over-worked, over-stocked, or
abused, and particularly for the want
of sufficient drink in warm weather,
and the consequences will always be
injurious. Sensible holsters in large
cities arc awakening to the advantages
of frequent watering. Street car
horses arc watered every hour, and
sometimes oftener, while they are at
work. It is plenty of water that sup
plies evaporation or perspiration and
keeps down the temperature.
"What old fogy methods amount to
may be seen by the change in medical
practice to man. Twenty years ago a
person having a fever of any kind, or
pneumonia, was allowed but little wa
ter to drink, and then it had to be
tepid. To-day practitioners prescribe
all the iced water the patient can pos
sibly driak ; and in additiou, cold
bandages are applied to reduce and
control the temperature of the blood.
What is applicable to man will never
injure a horse. Use common sense
and human feeling. Don't think it is
a horse and capable of enduring any
and all things. A driver who sits in
his box and lashes his wornout, half
curried, half-fed and half-watered team
should never complain of any abuse
he may receive from his master or em
ployer, for he is lower in character,
harder in sympathy and less noble
than the brutes he is driving, and he
deserves in the name of all that is
human, the punishment of a criminal.

Extraordinary Case.
Atlanta, Ga., July 31.?J. L. Moyse,
representing himself to be of rho firm of
Lloyd, Moyse & West, attorneys, of New
York, appeared here Monday and spent
the morning sb a spectator of the famous
Flanagan murder caso, in which the de
fense was insanity. In the afternoon
Moyse approached Col. W. C. Glenn,
leading counsel for Flanagan, and intro
duced himself, saying he had como to
employ Glenn to aid him In the defense
of a notable murder case at Rome, Ga.
He said he had been sent to Georgia by
the Crescent brewing company to defend
R. T. Mathews, who was indiotod for the
murder of his wife, and Mathews having
been an agent of the browing company,
the company had put up unlimited
money to defray the expenses of the do
fense. lie wont into details of tho crime
and the law In tho caso in a very intelli
gent mannor, and ended by employing
Col. Glenn for a fee of 31,000 to aid in de
fending tho prisoner. Since that time he
has been a spectator at the Flanngan trial,
watching with absorbing Interest the
highly interesting defense of Flanagan,
which was based upon the defendant's
afllictlon with paranoia.
On the strength of his having engaged
Col. Glenn in tho Mathews case, Moyse
assisted in the defense of Flanngan and
made a most valuable aid, showing him
self to bo an expert in all matters pertain
ing to mental derangomonte. The case of
Flanagan was conoluded to-day, and this
afternoon a conference was held at Col.
Glenn's office to consider tho Mathews
case.
Drs. Plnckney and Nicholson, two of
the loading physicians of the State and
experts in mental disease?, were sont for
at Moyee's suggestion and employed as
exports to testify In tho case of Mathews
Monday. After a conference of two hours,
the party adjourned to meet at Rome to
take up the trial, no one dreaming that
there was no case.
In some way Moyse's actions here had
excited the suspicions of the detective de
partment and he was placed under arrest
to-night. It has developed that he is in
sane, being a paranoiac of the same type
of Flanagan, but his condition was never
suspected until ho was examined in the
police barracks to-night. To the casual
observer he is perfectly sane, but it has
devoloped that tho case of Mathews is
purely an imaginary one.
Moyse stated to-night that ho has made
a specialty of tho study of insanity for
years. He talks with intimate knowledge
of all the famous insanity cases that have
been before tho country in recent years,
particularly the Duestrow case. Ho will
be sent to hie homo to-morrow.

Spooner is an old fi.-hcrman, and a few
days ago he called on Attorney E. E.
Ellison to have his will drawn up.
Spooner named his dog as the solo ben
eficiary.
"You will be regarded a3 crazy," ex
postulated tho lawyer. "That amount of
money can never be expended on a dog."
"I don't think it can myself," said
Spooner, "but I mean to be sure and
have Rovor well taken care of when I am
cono, and take this means of insuring
him against the kicks and cuff* accorded
to the ordinary friendless dog. Perhaps
It wculd be hotter to draw the will in such
a way that Rover will receive the benefit
of tho income of the property until his
death, when the property itself and what
remains of the income can go to my sister
in England."
And so tho will was made out in ac

For Love of Ulm.
Here is a true story of woman's de
votion. A wife, older than her hus
band, awoke to the conviction that she
was more and more addicted to snor
ing. She was confirmed in this con
viction by thoughtless remarks of her
husband. sensible woman, she
knew that she was not comely, and
she suspected him of marrying her for
her money. She was piteously fond
of him, and she fought for his love.
She went quietly to a physician. He
told her the snoring was connected in
some way with a catarrhal trouble,
and recommended an operation. She
suffered inconvenience and pain
through the remedying, but wan re
warded when her husband said, "What's
the matter with you, old girl ? I
haven't heard you snore for a week."
All this happened a dozen years ago.
The hueband, a heavy, injudicious
eater and drinker, snores at night and
even in his sluggard's chair after din
ner. He snores so vehemently that
guests wake in alarm, although r?hey
are a floor above. The wife listens
without remonstrance. She loves,
adores. He is her husband. And
when her sister, visiting, said, "Louise,
I don't see how you stand it," she
flushed with anger and replied, "He is
my husband, and I know that he is
near to me."?Boston Journal.

The Life Beyond the Grave.
"There is a little book entitled
The Life Beyond' that presents the
truth of the Resurrection in a wonder
ful manner," writes Evangelist Moody
in the Ladies' Home Journal. "It is
m allegory and pretends to give the
?xperience of a little dragon fly grub.
The little insect longs to know what
is beyond the sphere of its little
world. In vain it inquires of the fish
that live in the same pond, but they
have no experience in any other
sphere, nor can any of its fellows sat
igfy its anxious yearning. The only
world it knows is a little meadow
pond ; all its experience is limited by
the bounds of the surrounding banks.
At length the grub is overcome by a
strange attraction upward, and gather
ing about it all its fellows it tells that
it must leave them for the regions
above, and promises to return to tell
them what it has found to exist in the
beyond, if, indeed, there may be any
thing above the bulrushes of their
little-pond. And then quietly it dis
appears from the sight of its fellows
and emerges into the bright sunlight
of the greater world. Here it is trans
formed, and now with outstretched
wings it darts hither and thither re
flecting the brightness of the sun from
its gorgeous body. But it does not
forget the promises it has made to the
friends it has left below. It tries to
return to the world from which it has
just "been resurrected, but cannot now
leave the atmosphere in which it lives.
All it can do is to wait for them to
come to where it now lives, a beauti
ful dragon fly.
"And thus it is with those who have
disappeared from our sight. Their
love for us,is not lessened because
they are not able to commune with us,
but they arc waiting in the presence
of the Master for that glorious moment
when in their resurrected bodies they
shall unite once more with those whom
they have loved on earth."
