well you can talk about your steam
heat and your hot water pipes and your
furnaces and your natural gas all you
want to, but as for me give me the good
old-fashioned base-burner," said the old
man as he stretched out bis h Ids to-
ward a glowing pattern of his fayorite
heater of the style of about 1880.
There's something kind of artificial
about these other things, even natural
gas" he continued. Some way or
another they don't go to the spot-not
with me. They make me feel just like
had on a new pair of boots, and
mighty bad fitting ones at that. They
go against the grain and don't make
me feel at home. And, besides, they
don't always deliver the goods. Now,
just look at this one. You bet 1t de-
livers the goods all the time"
The old gentleman was right. at the
moment, at least. for In the lamplight
you could fairly see the heat shooting
away from the base-burner. The Their

furniture near by was beginning to smell

oUNeoAT TO CHASE PHANToMs
The Wheeling Sent Out to Solve Two
Pacific Ocean Mysteries.

Pacific Ocean Mysteries.
Two mysteries of the Pacific are ex-
pected to be cleared up by the gunboat
Wheeling, which has left San Francis
co on a surveying cruise of the great
circle route" from the American coast
to the Philippines. She is expected to
affirm or deny absolutely the exist
ence of the Reed rocks off the coast or
British Columbia and the Behring rock,
off the coast of Japan. For years these
rocks have been playing at hide ana
seek with the commerce of the Paclnc.
Many and many merchant skipper
has reported the Reed rocks, and some
have declared that they spent days IN
cruising about them. Other shippers
have passed over the site OF the alleged
islands and seen no sign of land. GOV
eminent vessels have been sent out
on survey and have failed to locate
them. Yet persistently they have
been reported by other vessels, ana
when they are reported their location
always agrees closely with the pre-
vious report. They have been playing
ting with the United States for many
years. and now the government has
ordered the Wheeling to catch them
and say there are 1T" Nobody would
bother much about these ghosts Of the
Pacific If they did not always appear
In the great circle course, which Is the
shortest course from our coasts to the
coasts of japan and the Philippines.
If they exist. they are in the way and
should be charted,
Another Job which has been marked
out for the Wheeling is the location OF
Behring rock. II has been on the
charts ever since 1t was discovered by
the Captain of the Russian ship Behr-
ing. Captain Mosher of the Albatross
recently went TO take look at this
rock and see If 1t was exactly where 1t
was placed on the charts. He secured
the ocean for miles In the region where
the rock was supposed to be, but never
a rock did he see. This rock, mythical
or otherwise is also on the great circle
course of sailing. and the Wheeling Is
requested TO find out whether the Russ
ian captain had been drinking vodky
or really saw rock. An ingenious
theory is that these rocks are OF vol
canic formation, and periodically are
thrown above the surface Of the sea,
to sink back again when the seismic
disturbance is over.

Small Boy Could Sleep Well Under the

Small Boy Could Sleep Well Under the
Folds of the Flag.
There is 5-year old boy on Massa-
chusetts avenue who Is of the blood Of
patriots. His grandfather was in both
the Mexican and civil wars, and his
father was also a union soldier. con
sequently the little fellow has heard
much flag talk In his short life and
has exalted ideas of its protective
qualities. He was the baby of The
family till very recently and occup' ell
crib bed IN his mothers room. When
the new baby came Harold was pui to
sleep In a room adjoining his mothers,
and as he had never slept alone before
his small soul was filled with nameless
fears. which he was too proud to tell
In full.
ITS mighty lonesome In here, man,
mar he called the first night after he

you and caring for YOU" replied man.
ma from the outer room.
But, mamma" he objected. Il
amt acquainted with any angels and
I'd be scared of them If they came
rustling round same as ] would of any
other stranger"
Now. Harold, you must go to sleep
quietly; nothing will hurt you"
Cant I have the gas lighted In
here?"
mo, mamma doesn't think It neces-
sary. and 1t is not healthy"
There was silence for some time. and
then the small voice piped up again.

Eyes, dear"

"Please, mamma" and asmall night

"Just let me stick the flag up at the
head of my bed, and then I'll go right
to sleep. Indeed l will. You know
the other night grandpa said Mt the
meeting that Under the protecting
folds of the flag the weakest would be

He got the flag, and when his mother
looked In on him an hour later he was

Thomas Jefferson n. Letter Writer.

Thomas Jefferson n Letter Writer,
Mr.. Jefferson probably wrote more
letters with his own hand than any
other public man that ever lived. The
extent of his correspondence may be
inferred from the fact that 10000 let
tiers neatly folded and briefed were
preserved by him and found carefully
filed away Mt the time of his death,
with copies of the replies sent TO more
than 10000. These, however, were on
ly small portion of his correspond
ence, as he retained only those he con-
sidered Of future usefulness or impor-
lance.
Stenography was not invented at that
time. Every one of his letters was
written with his own hand and with
great care. although after breaking his
came a great labor to him. His pen
manshlp was small, plain and legible,
every letter being perfectly formed, and
his account books are kept In so small
a hand that many of the pages cannot
be read without magnifying glass.
Jefferson was ambidextrous. He
could write equally well with either
hand. When his wrist was broken, he
learned to write with his left hand,
which became as skillful as the other.
1t would have been impossible for him
to have carried ON his extensive corre-
spondence without being able to re-
lieye his right hand at interyals.-Chi-

weight of the locomotive without the

they differed in color. He sol
about finding out the reasons Tor
this difference, and the results OF his
investigations have been published In
La Nature.
There is a paleness about the yellow
of the ten and twenty-franc pieces
which bear the effigles of Napoleon
|. and Louis XVIII. that Is not
observed in the gold of later mintage-
One admirer of these coins
speaks of their color as
beautiful paleness' and ex-
presses regret that it is lacking In later
coins. The explanation of 1t Is very
simple. The alloy that entered into
the French .old coins of those days
contained as much silver as copper
and 1t was the silver that gave the
coins their interesting paleness.
The coins of the era of Napoleon Ill.
were more golden In hue. The silver
had been taken out of the alloy.
The gold coins of to-day have still
warmer and deeper tinge of yellow.
This is because the Paris mint, as well
as that in London, melts the gold and
the copper alloy In Theoretically sealed
boxes, which prevents the copper from
being somewhat bleached, as 1t always
is when It is attacked by hot air; so the
present coins have the full warmness
of tint that copper alloy can give.
If the coins of to-day are not so hand
some in the opinion of amateur collec-
tors as those issued by the first Napo-
leon, they are superior to those OF
either of the Napoleons In the fact
that 1t costs less to make them. The
double operation of the oxidation of
the copper and cleaning 1t of the sur
face of the coin with acids Is no longer
employed; and the large elimination OF
copper from the surface of the coins,
formerly practiced, made them less re-
sistant under wear and tear than are
the coins now In circulation.

In attendance at an operate perform

thing In his ear.

came back and handed him a small

When the curtain went down at the
