zard now anchored in the Potomac
off Wide Water. are laboring under
what Professor Langley calls great
disadvantages"- is, constant
scrutiny from tugs. launches, and sail
boats containing newspaper men, the
preparations for the first flight of Pro-
fessor Langley's giant aerodome, which
is expected to demonstrate the adapta-
bility of the aeroplane principle to
aerial navigation, are nearing COM
pletion.
Thursday night machinists and car
penters worked from dark till dawn and
noon today The wooden launching
car from which the airship is to be
shot into the air was hoisted into po-
sition on the elevated railway built up
on the households superstructure. Yes
terday the plungers and pistons of
the pneumatic catapult We're placed
into position and tested They worked
satisfactorily, and the indicators show
ed IA velocity of nearly seventy-five a
second. A velocity of only fifty feet
second is required in launching the
aerodpme
The gasoline motors Of the airship
We're also tested yesterday for the
first time since they were placed IN
position. The engines We're operated
half an hour continuously, and gener-
ated 27.6 horse power. There was
comparatively little vibration of the
tube steel frame of the air vessel.
Structural weakness, however, was dis
covered in that portion of the aerodome
known as the engine room. where the
motors are suspended between steel
uprights, and consequently the after
moons labor on the Buzzard was de-
voted to correcting this defect. This
and several other details of construc-
ton which are not entirely satisfac-
tory may delay the initial trial until
next week.
The scientists composing the flying
machine expedition decline to work IN
the presence of spectators, and are
resorting to every means in their pow
err to evade the scrutiny of critical
observers.

Words From phillips Brooks.

Jesus came unto his own To men
forgetful of their Godlike nature he
came to tell them that they were the
sons of God; and to men who could not
do without him he came because they
needed him. Oh. my dear friends, by
what high warrant does the Savior
claim us for his own! Because We are
his fathers children, and because we
are SO needy, therefore our divine
brother comes. He comes to us and
says, you called me-" And you look
up out of your worldliness, and say
Oh, no, I did not call! do not know
you!" But he says. calmly. You did,
altho you did not know it. That power
of being God-like which is in YOU
crushed and unsatistied-that sum
moned me: and that need of being
forgiven and renewed which you will
not own-that summoned me. And
here 1 am! Now. wilt thou be made
whole? If thou canst believe, all things
are possible to him that believeth"

Arabian DeIicacies.

In recent Egyptian review may be
found some curious extracts from al
Diahez, celebrated scientist of the
tenth century. Speaking Of the fa-
vorite dishes of the Arabians Of that
epoch, he says that they considered
the flesh of young dogs great deli
cacy and also ate grasshoppers and
scorpions with much relish. Moreover,
they esteemed the flesh Of black cats
highly, since they maintained that any
one who ate it could rot be injured
either by sorcery or by the evil eye.
Al Djahez also says that he was dis
appointed when he found that the
Arabian tribes Of Bassorah did not eat
grasshoppers, but, on the other hand,
was highly delighted to fihd his friend,
the famous poet Roobah, feasting roy
ally on roast rats and lizards. The
Arabians, he says in conclusion, also
ate serpents and horses, but took the
utmost care only to serve at table
horses which had been harnessed, as
they did not consider it right to eat
those which had been ridden.

"a sneeze may mean various things In
some parts of Turkey. 1t is regarded
as confirmation Of what the person
speaking has just said. In that case he
interrupts himself in order to address
the sneezer as follows: Health be to
thee. for thou hast proved that l am
speaking the truth" 1t Is sometimes
taken as sign that absent enemies are
speaking i'll Of the sneezer and the
bystanders express the pious wish that
those individuals, whoever they be-,
may split" Sneezing is also consid-
cred as an Indication of health, espe-
cially il the sneezer is just recovering
from an illness.

The Sunday Paper.

If the Sunday newspaper is an evil
it is such because of the character of
its matter and not because 1t is Sun
day paper, says the Sentinel OF Chris
tian Liberty. Not the day of It's publ
cation, but the nature of it's contents
is what determines it's character, and If
it is to be attacked it should be at
tackled for what it is. and not on the
irrelevant ground that 1t tends ito sec
ularize the Christian Sabbath and
prevents untold thousands from at
tending divine services on the Lords
day" II the Sunday paper is a de-
moralizing force because Of the char
acter of its matter it is not only stupid,
but wicked to oppose 1T In this latter
fashion. for it is equivalent to saying
that it would be all right If it was is
sued on any other day OF the week than

Mice That sub.i.t ON scorpions.


Among the queer forms Of animal life
that inhabit Death valley is mouse
that has acquired such taste for scor-
pions that they form its entire bill OF
fare. The scorpion carries its formula
BILE armament In the end Of its slender,
elongated abdomen in the shape of an
exceedingly venomous hooked sting.
When disturbed it eleyutes this in the
air and goes in search Of its disturber.
But it is comparatively slow in its mo-
tons. while mice are proverbial for
their quickness the world over. The
mouse learned many generations ago
where the scorpion carries Its weapon,
and when he meets 1t he leaps at the
uplifted abdomen, takes Oft the sting at
a single bite and proceeds to make
meal Of his helpless prey. 1t is sup
posed to be the only animal that rel
ishes scorpions.

Gladstone and ti,s Actor.

An English speaker related this an
lecdote to an audience of theatrical en-
ployees: "AIr. Gladstone. when Mr..
Beerbohm Tree was introduced to him,
hardly knew upon what topic to con-
verse with him, but Mt length asked
Mr.. Trees opinion as to the politics OF
the stage, whether it Is, as rule, Lib
eral or Conservative. Well, SIR said
Mr.. Tree wickedly, I really have not
studied the question, but should think
the actors are mostly Conservative
Dear me- replied Mr.. Gladstone, I
wonder whether there is any exception
to that ruler 4 should say.' replied
Mr.. Tree. the scene shutters are Rad
icals to man."

catarrh Of the Stomach.

When the stomach is overloaded:
when food is taken into 1t that fails to
digest, 1t decays and infiames the mu-
cous membrane, exposing the nerves,
and causes the glands to secrete mu-
Gin instead of the natural juices OF d.
gestion. This is called catarrh Of the
stomach. For years suffered with ca
tarrh of the stomach, caused by indi-
gestion. Doctors and medicines failed
to benefit me until used Kodol Dys-
