ugly as himself that he should be named

when he met young s. O., and from the
day of their meeting the nickname of
"Guy" has stuck to our fellow citizen.

Woods personal appearance and he is
now as good looking as the balance of
us.)

Perhaps some of our readers would
like to know in what respect Chamber
lains Cough Remedy is better than any
other. We will tell you. When this
Remedy is taken rs soon as cold is con-
tracted, and before it has become settled
in the system. it will counterfeit the ef-
feet of the cold and greatly lessen its Sc
verify, and it is the only remedy that will
do this. 1t acts in perfect harmony with
nature and aids nature in relieving the
lungs, opening the sccretions, liquefying
the mucus and causing its expulsion from
the air cells of the lungs and restoring
the system to strong and healthy con-
dition. No other remedy in tho market
possesses these remarkable properties.

The resistance Of the air IL tn

The resistance Of the air Is the ono
all sufficient fulcrum or basis on
which every flying machine must
rely. In the invcstiga tion OF its laws
something has been done by the study
of the fight Of birds, and the analy-
sis of the results of instantaneous
photographs Of then, especially By
modern french writer's. For the
laws which govern the flight Of birds
must, mutatis mutandis Is In
principle-applv to all aerial loco
motion. Hence, In the last edition
OF the Encyclopedia Britannica We
sec progress on the subject. Thus
we find therein an instructive table,
showing clearly that, contrary to
many peoples ideas upon the subject,
the sustaining or wing area In all fy-
ing bodies In nature Increases In
much less proportion than the In
creased weight to be carried. For
the swallow or the sparrow has
much less proportionate area Of wing
than the fly the gnat, or the beetle.
and the vulture OF wild swan much
less area than the swallow.
This Is an important fundamental
fact In aerial navigation, as showing
that the flying machine Of the future
can be made of very moderate di.
mansions. Hut by far the most use.
full progress In this direction has been
made by Prof. Langley in his excel.
lent "Experimcntsi In AerOdynamics,"
wherein he may fairly be said to have
laid down, ter the first time, q really
sound and reliable scientific basis
for the study OF aerial locOmotion by
q series OF careful experiments and
well.ieasOned deductions from them.
We may note with pleasure tina.
Prof. Langley is reported to be now
engaged upon model aerial machine
on a working scale. Whatever It's
ultimate measure OF success, his new
expert Icnts with IL cannot fail to
advance the cause Of aerial naviga-
ton another stage. Contemporary
