DIGNITY OF SEX
A. Chicago Hod Carrier Drew the Line as Being Put in Order by a Woman.
One of the hod carriers at work on a brick building out in the suburbs climbed up to the first story Thursday. Then he fell and the hod, the bricks and the ladder fell on him. When the debris had been pulled away the hod carrier was lying face downward on the pavement stones senseless. There wasn't a drug store or a doctor within half a mile. A bricklayer put on his coat and tore for the nearest patrol box. Meantime the hod carrier was lying there in a pool of blood, apparently thinking about nothing in particular.
The boss was fuming about, kicking blocks of wood into the street and swearing at the haziness of the police. The big phasisters who could drive a spike with their fists were standing around as helpless as children. At this time a young woman in a blue coat came across the street. She was pretty and rosy, with a lot of yellow hair drawn up, tightly from her temples, and she had a most decided look in her bright blue eyes. She brushed the big follows aside and asked briskly, "What's the trouble here, men?"
"One of the boys has busted himself wide open," said the boss politely.
"Let me see," said the pretty girl, dropping on her knees beside the lad carrier. She took off a dainty kid glove and with her little white hand felt the man's skull.
"No bones fractured here," she said looking up at the groun around her.
Then she noticed the pool of blood lying beside the man's right arm, and whipping out a pair of scissors she ripped up the coat sleeve and the sleeve of the flamel shirt.
"Goodness!" she said. "An artery has been cut. Give me a piece of twine, quick."
The boss pulled a piece of course string from his coat pocket and handed it to the girl. She drew it around the man's arm, made a loop knot, thrust a pencil into the loop and twisted it until the cord sank deep into the flesh.
"You hold this," she said to the boss, and the big man knelt down and grabbed the ligature. Then she had some water brought out. She washed the scalp wound in a jiffy. Then she cut among the loose flesh with the scissors and with plaster and a strip of linen from a bag she carried she made a neat bandage. Then she arose and viewed a pretty job of emergency surgery with reasonable complacency. The patrol wagon and the hod carrier came around at the same time. As the wagon backed up the hod carrier opened his eyes and saw the girl in the blue cloak.
"Are you hurt, Mike?" said the boss.
"Naw," said the hod carrier. "Take me somewhere that I can get a doctor. I don't want no women monkeyin's 'round me'!"
The girl doctor in blue looked at him quizzingly and laughed as she washed his gore from her hands in the bucket of water.—Chicago Herald.
Kneding Clay with His Feet.
One of the oldest features in the process of making glass is the construction of the "pots" or crucibles in which the raw materials are fused into glass, ready for the blowpipe. These pots, which are dome shaped, about four feet high, and half as much in diameter, are made of clay, which is principally imported from Germany, although an article has been discovered in the state of Missouri which serves the purpose measurably well. Men are at work constantly making these pots, for a supply of well seasoned ones must be kept on hand ready for immediate use.
One of the workmen—and a vory important one—is constantly employed in kneading the moistened clay to bring it into a condition of requisite tenacity, and this work oddly enough he does with his bare feet, treading the yielding mass back and forth with peculiar side long steps all day long for a period of three weeks to each "batch." No machinery has ever been devised which can supplant this primitive process of working the clay into proper condition, and the old man I saw at work will doubtless tread backward and forward in his box of clay as long as he performs any earthly labor. —Alfred Mathews in Pittsburg Dispatch.

"SEEING IS BELIEVING."
Some lamps are TOLERABLY good,
But who wants a “tolerably” good egg? And there is a heap of trouble with a “tolerably” good lamp. There is one lamp good without the tolerable—THE ROCHERSTEIN SIMPLE, BEAUTIFUL, Good—these words mean much, but to see THE ROCHERSTEIN will imitate the tough and seamless, and made in pieces only, it is ABSOLUTELY SAFE and UNBREAKABLE. Like Addhdn’s of old, it is indied a “wonderful lamp.” for its marvelous light is purer and brighter than gas light, softer than electric light and more cheerful than either.
Look for this stamp - THE ROCHESTER. If the lamp dealer hasn't, the genuine ROCHESTER, and the style you want, send to us for our no.1 illustrated catalogue and we will send you a lamp safely by express—your choice of over 2,00 varieties from the LARGEST LAMP STORE IN THE WORLD.
