THE rLv,no MACHINE.

Yts Ll.,sssssas sd Aiss Its Ps.ssAsas.
We can already calculate approxi-
mately the proportions. tho strength
and weight. the supporting snicisney.
the speed. and the power required for
a projected flying machine. 20 ~ to
Judge of the practicability of design.
Indeed, the mathematics Of the subject
have been 20 far evolved that engi-
neering computations may eventually
displace vague speculation In the do
main Of aerial navigation.
But after the problem has been
worked out to . mechanical success.
the commercial uses Of aerial appar-
atus will be small. The limitations
OF the balloon have already been men
toned; such craft will be slow. frail.
and very costly. We are now sum
ciently advanced In the design OF hy-
ing machines to perceive some Of their
Limitations. They will be compare
lively small and cranky. require much
power. carry little extra weight and
depend for their effective speed on
each journey. whether they 90 against
the wind or with It. so that they can
not compete with existing modes OF
transportation In cheapness or In car
rying capacity. It Is true that high
speeds may be attained. and this may
serve in war. In exploration. perhaps
In mail transportation. and In sport:
but the loads will be very small. and
the expenses win be great
But flying machines will develop
new uses Of their own: and Is man
kind has always been benefited by
the Introduction of new and faster
modes Of transportation. we may hope
that successful aerial navigation will
spread civilization, knit the nations
closer together. make all regions ac-
cessible. and perhaps SO equalize the
hazards Of war ~ to abolish 1t Alto

dicted era Of universal peace and good

Politics can be made expensive In
Australia as we'll as here. One man.
Sir Malcolm McEachern of Melbourne,
expended $250.O00 to secure seat in
the commonwealth house of represen-
tatives. Another man. a laborer. from
an adjoining constituency. expended
only $3.50. A remarkable campaign
was waged by another candidate who
on the eve Of election Issued the fol-
lowing statement: Il have Travelled
In the conduct of this contest more
than 10000 miles. a large portion on
foot. have published and circulated.
chiefly by my own hands, or by those
of my family. 100000 pages Of liter
ature in book form. have published
10000 copies Of speeches delivered in
the constituency. and 125. 900 copies of
four-page circulars. 1t Is utterly i'm
possible that this amount of work
and literature can fail to have its
effect" The candidate who tramped,
printed and published on this colossal
scale found himself on the bottom Of
the poll when the numbers were up.

to be full Of dead berries. His meal
being cooked and eaten, the traveller
discovered that tho adjourned berries
were very fragrant. Collecting a num-

a stone. he found that their aroma had
increased to a great extent. While
wondering at this he accidentally let
fall the substance Into can which
contained his scant supply Of water.
Lo. what a miracle! The almost pu-
