AN EFFECTIVE MADSTONE.
flow It Adheres to the Body and Snake
Out All the Poladn.
Nearly every one has heard more or
Less about madstones and the wonderful
cures with which they are credited in
saving life where a person had been bit
ten by a mad dog. Many regard these
stones as a mere superstition, but statis
tics go to prove that they really do con
tain many wonderful properties. Mad
stones are seldom heard of anywhere ex
cept in the southern states, where they
are quito common, and most of the peo
ple of that section place great faith in
them. Mrs. J. M. Parks, a lady resid
tig in this city, is the possessor of one
of these remarkable atones, and a report
er called on her to learn something about
them.
"YXe, she said when questioned on
the subject, "I have a nmadstone and
have had it many years. My husband
found it near Magnesia Springs, -Fla. I
have only had occasion to use it three or
four times since it has been in my pos
session, and each time the best results
followed. The reason that I have not
used It often is that I never hear of a ease
where a person hia been bitten by a mad
dog until I see it in the paper, and then
it has always been stated that the pa
tient has been taken with convulsions.
it is too late to use the madetone then.
Spasms do not generally appear until
about nine days after the person is bit
ten, and if the stone Ia-applied any time
previous to the convulsions the poison
will be entirely drawn out by it.
"The worst case I ever cured with my
mnadstone happened whenm a .policeman
here in the city, patnet, Price, was, bit
ten on the hand by a mad dog. His arm
had swollen up to three-or four timues its
natural size and had turnmed black. The
man was suffering the pnost excruciat
ing agony, and his physicians had de
spaired of his life. I accidentally heard
of his case and at once hurried to the
house with my madstone. Tfhe doctor
consented to give it a trial, anmd the re
suit w~as that the man recovered and is
now walking around the streets as well
as ever.."
Upon the reporter's asking if he might
see the stone Mrs. Parks Immediately
produced it, remarking as she did so,
"It does not look nearly as powerful as
it really Is."
It is a little, porous, chalklike sub
stance about an Inch long, half an inch
wide and a quarter of an inch thick
andl appeared to be a sort of vegetable
comp~ound.
"The process of applying the mad
stone," continued Mrs. Parks, "is very
simple and somewhat similar to vaccina
tion. You select soe part of the body
between the bite and the heart and vwith
a sharp knife serape tihe skin till the
blood comes, then apply the stone to the
raw spot. Trhe stone will adhere imms
diately, and its drawing qualities are so
great that it will alinost bury itself in
tho flesh, sucking out the poison until all
the pores of the stone are filled with the
deadly v'irus. The stone then drops oft
of its own accord, and after being thor
oughly cleansed with nil1k, warm water
and soap Is applied again. Tis Ia kept
up till the atone refuses to stick, thereby
shmowing that all the poison has been
dIrawn out. "-St. LouIs Globe-Democrat.
Lord Crewe's Collectlon.
Lord Crewo once, on the occasion of
some charitable entertainment, leaned
rup against a corridor wall, fast asleep,
with his hat in his hand. Some wild
young meon started dropping coppers and
half crowns into the hat until the'.hink

lies in the fullest discharge of its func

the Numerous Proesses It Undergoes I
the Course ef Masufaeture.
On entering the main workshop th
Afrt stop in the operation which is seei
is the formation of the ix head withou
the blade. The glowing fat iron bar,
are withdrawn from the furnace and ar
taken to a powerful and somewhat com
plicated machine, which performs upot
them four distinct operations, shaping
the metal to form the upper and lowei
part of the ax-, then the eye, and finally
doubling the piece over so that the wholt
can be welded together. Next the iroi
is put in a powerful natural gas furnace
and heated to a white heat. Taken out,
it goes under a tilt hammer and is weld
ed in a second. This done, one blow
from the "drop," and the poll of the ax
is completed and firmly welded. Two
crews of men are doing this class of
work, and each crew can make 1,500 area
per day.
When the ax leaves the drop, there is
some superfluous metal still adhering to
the edges and forming what is technic
ally known as a "fin." To get rid of
the An the ax is again heated in a fur
nace and then taken in hand by a saw
yer, who trims the ends and edges. The
operator has glass in front of him to
protect his eyes from the sparks which
ny off by the hundreds as the hot metal
is pressed against the rapidly revolving
saw. The Iron part of the ax is now
complete. ''he steel for the blade, aftAr
being heated, to out by machinery and
shaped. It is then ready for the welding
department. A groove is out into the
edge of the iron, the steel of the blade
inserted, and the whole firmly welded
by machine hammers.
Next con.s the operation of temper
ing. The steel portion of the ax is heat
ed by being inserted in pots of molten
lead, the blade only being immersed. It
is then cooled by dipping in water and
goes to the hands of the inspector. An ax
is subject to rigid tests before it is pro
nounced perfect. The steel must be of
the required temper. the weight of all
axes of the same sine must be uniform,
all must be ground alike and in variout.
other ways conform to an establishef.
standard. The inspector who tests the
quality of the steel does so by hammerin"
the blade and striking the edge to ascer
tain whether it be too brittle or not. Ai
ax that breaks during the tests is throw:.
aside to be made over.
Before the material of the ax is in th
proper shape it has been heated five
times, including the tempering irocesv
and the ax, when completed, has passe,
through the hands of about 40 workmei.
each of whom has done somethitn
toward perfecting it. After passing in

partmuent, and from that to the polish
