A Noi?o From Human Bono*.
Among mirage nations It Is often cus
tomary to use human hones for the
puriKwe of making horns and a terri
ble sereei-b can he brought out of
these awful Instruments. The braves
In many South American tribes In the
vicinity of the Amazon employ these
peculiarly constructed horns as Instru
ments of war. playing en them as they
enter into conflict and employing their
harsh, screeching tones to drown the
cries of the wounded and Inspire their
foes with terror. The chief warriors
of the trllie make It one of the main
poluts of their lighting to capture and
kilt the chosen chiefs of the other side
to make horns out of tbelr bones.

Pullsy Hor**pow*r.
A rule for lludlug horsepower of a
pulley la to multiply the circumfer
ence of the pulley In feet by tho revo
lutions per minute and the product
thua obtained by the width of the belt
In Inches aud divide the result by 000.
The quotient will be the horsepower
which the pulley Is capable of trans
mitting. This rule Is founded on the
fact that good, ordinary single loather
belting, with a tension of tlfty-tlve
pounds per Inch wide, will require fifty
square feet of belt surface passing
over the pulley per minute for one
horsepower. Fifty square feet per
minute are equal to a belt ono inch
