The normal temperature of the human body is about 06° 1". Two H, mm; degrees below numbs the mm, and A few degrees above heats it to the pnint of delirium. Thus it may be seen that the highest acts of mental and moral we depend upon the bdy's health}
Movable types of copper a load were tried out in China in M2 5.1).; but it was thought that lnmakes were more numerous with them, and therefore the fixed blocks were prepared and used.
Believe it or not but u. ruby of five carats is twice the value of ,-. diamond of the same size. why? “cause a perfect ruby is the rar- ,,\.r, of all precious stones.
The first eyeglasses were made in England of emeralds.
There are animals and men who never see daylight. The animals include 3.000 horses and mules employed in mines. I have no fig- ures to show how many miners live permanently under the ground but their number must be consid- yrabie since some of the welsh -:n1l mines have small towns un- 36-1‘ the surface.
0 O C in France, England and the Uni- ted States, Jews have not, as
money makers‘. attained any ex. I,-wydinary pre-eminence, either as creators of great fortunes or as iiliallclers.
Many of the Jews in these coun- tries become quite wealthy - yet not in the front rank of wealth. Rot'nschild's connection with Eng- _nnd did not begin until he was mildly established in Germany, when he sent his son Nathan to Manchester.
Gold rings are made from bars about 12 inches long, 2 inches wide and 3/16 of an inch thick. One liar will make about 300 r.nszs.
A dozen processes and 20 minu- uas of time are required to change the bar into rings. First a pair of shears cuts the bar into strips. By the tum of I wheel, the guillo- zne like blade of the shears chops ine bar into slices one, two or 3/16 inch wide. A rolling machine fiat- {Pm out the pieces and makes them flat or grooved. Each strip is then put under s. blow pipe and an- nealed. The oxide of copper rises in the surface and is put into a pickle of sulphuric acid, the bi: nf gold is stamped with the quail- :v and the name of the maker. and put through a machine that RIVPG -it its filial shape. M‘-any nrrsons imagine that rings are run .21 a mould because they can't we where they are soldered. Fin- ally the ring is polished, pared for smoothness. They are ready (or the market and matrimony.
so you see, the making of a wed- ding ring or ally other kind of a finger ring is quite I. process.

Seventy per cent of all persons can hypnotized by experts. while practically every worried person is susceptible. Perhaps this is why spell-binding demagoguw are so likely to succeed in times of crisis.

Many of us believe we have guardian angels. I am one holding such a belief. And when I tell you of the two times I escaped death by warnings, you'll understand why I believe in these guides.
The first time v/as back in 1921. I was then working at Premier. B.C., with the Premier Gold Min- ing Co. I had planned to ride into Hyder, Alaska, on one of the Co's ore teams driven by an old timer named Bill Saunders. But I didn't go. Why? Because something or somebody warned me of impending danger.
Half an hour afterward We re- ceived news of Saunders’ death.
He and his team of horses had been engulfed in I mountain snow-slide.
My second escape from death occurred several years ago, while I was in Florida. One morning I joined a group of orange pickers. We were driven to an old grove which contained many large, tall trees and we picked the fruit us- ing long ladders to reach the highest branches.
with the assistance of mother picker we moved the ladder to the tallest tree in the grove. It was weather beaten and rather brittle looking towards the top. I put on my apron and climbed three rungs. Then I stopped. Why? That warn- ing again. "I'll take it," said my chum. "seeing that you are afraid."
When within a few feet of the top of the ladder, the whole too of the tree broke-off sending my chum to death.
