BENJAMIN Franklin used to compare
the balloon Of his day to a child who
would presently come to mans estate,
He thought the aerostation was in EN-
bryo, and in due time would do marvel
Gus things. But his aspirations, one
may now say, were too sanSuine.
Our aerial achievements. are still liter
ally sin the air." the flights of our best
aeronauts are involuntary. They are
"blown about with every wind" 1t is
true that the parachute has been brought
to considerable perfection, but that is not
flying, but falling. 1t is something to be
able to fall softly from a great height,
butt is not much. Ithardly seems worth
while to go up so far in order to come
down again.
This reflection applies to the very latest
improvements in the science. The wing
ed man of Steglitz has, we are told, sac
complished journey of $50 yards but
this merely means that, starting from a
tower he has built for the purpose with
spring board or from steep hill, he
has flown down that distance.
AS for the aerial machines of various
kinds that are to 'revolutionize warfare"
by dropping dynamite over cities and ar
mics, they may be marvels Of mechanical
science, but they have never yet risen to
the occasion" or even risen at all. Even
the Maxim" invention has. under
stand, never left the rails" which, al
though great virtue in locomotive, is
very little credit to flying machine

MANY shoe stores and some shoe
factories now make 1t point to pre-
vent women from finding out what
size shoes they are buying. That
seems curious, but 1t grows out OF
popularity Ut wOmankind which
gives the shoe clerks q great deal Of
trouble. They say that the majority
OF women will not try o shoe that 10
the right size. They nearly all want
them to he too small. 1t often hap
pens that woman buys shoe which
she has declared. to be the most com.
Portable that she ever put on her
feet. Then she gets home and sees
the number. or sees 1t before the pur-
chase is wrapped up, and II it 10 q
shade larger than she has been In the
habit OF buying, she will not take
the purchase. On this account there
has grown up q custom OF marking
shoes with cipher system, which
only the manufacturers aud dealers
can understand The result Is that
many women are more wisely shOd
than ever they were before.

EDWIN ATKINSON strongly recon-
mends lentils as cheap and nourish-
ing food which is largely used by the
peasantry Of Europe. 1t is a kind Of
pea or bean less palatable than beans,
and, therefore, In Europe restricted
In use to tho poorer classes, who can.
not afford beans. At present lcntils,
when procurable here, bring nearly
or quite as much as do beans. There
IL no reason In the United States why
people should give up using beans.
For the nutrition which they con.
tain they arc the cheapest food that
can be purchased, and also one Of the
best. We use more potatoes than
any other people in proportion to
population. Considering the waste
OF the potato In preparing, 1t Is the
common food that costs most for the
nutrition 1t gives, and that, too, Of
the poorest quality, as the potato,
excepting Its water, Is mainly car
bon. 1t Is possible that us some
prefer peas to beans rs food there
may be others who will prefer lentils
to either, and for any one change
from beans to some other vegetable
like 1t In nutrltive value is often de-
Sirlb!e.
