Gentemen-Havtng been a daily visitor

DR.. johnson stoutly poohpoohed tho
notion Of the effect of weather on the
mind. "To temperance, he wrote,
"every day is bright, and every hour is
propitious to diligence. johnson, how
ever, was little given to analyze the in
fuences Of nature, or any other influ-
ences, upon himself. And it may well
be that this disposition on his part was
in the spirit of the stoics and in def
ance of his own feelings, to which he
disdAined to give way. 1t seemed to
him sorry thing that "a being en-
dowed with reason" should "resign his
powers to the influences Of the air and
live in dependence on the weather and
the wind. "-ATemple Bar.

People commoaly think u flight IN

heights, but for that there Is no neces-
eity. an that Is required for practical
purposes IL that the aerodrome shall

part OF the problem Of human flight Is
the question Of landing safely People

Is apt to wind up its journey with a
smash-up. Professor Langley believes
he sees the way out OF this trouble, but
he guards his ideas on the subject very
carefully
II may be that the aerodrome OF the
future for passenger traffic will be- mod
lied on the plan Of a trolley for the sake
OF safety. Suppose a line Of poles carry
Ing a trolley wire to be erected from
New York to Chicago The airship
overhead would be connected with this
wire below by two wires The connect
ing wires would travel along the trolley
wire. BY means OF this arrangement
the power for running the propeller
fans could be furnished from dynamo
stations at suitable intervals along the
route. Thus all necessity for carrying
an engine on the aerial vessel would be
obyiatod. The airship might ny at a
height OF 100 feet or so above the trolley.
Il would carry suspended beneath Il a
car for passengers. Who can say that
ten years hence We may not see such a
limo as this running across the contin-
ent. with a continuous flight OF aero
dromes departing and arriving at 80
minute intervals? One important ad-
vantage OF the trolley idea in that the
wire would control the dying machine.
