Cheap and Safe Liohts,

In Great Britain an invention
which, it is claimed, gives absolute
safety to oil lamps is being applied to
practical uses. The device consists
OF circular metal box, the size vary
Ing according to the candle power re-
quired. in the box is a deposit of salt,
over which is layer of cotton waste
specially prepared
Running through the cotton pack
Ing is an asbestos wick, woven by
hand, and which is practically indes-
tructible, and requires only occasional
attention. BY immersing the box
In petroleum or paraff1n the oetton
waste absorbs the requisite quantity
OF Oil in few minutes through small
lateral interstices. That accomplish.
ed and the metal being dried exter-
nally, the application of light to the
asbestos wick produces bright,
steady white light, the candle power
being in proportion to the size of the
box, the consumption of oil being
less and, accordingly, the cost being
CORRESPONDENCE cheaper than if the
light were obtained from an ordinary
lamp.
Moreover, it is claimed absolute
sa1ety Is assured. The asbestine
lamp may be inverted, may exhaust
itself, may be thrown down or whirled
about, but there is no danger, it is
averred, as there is no free oil or oil
gas that can be ignited, and conse-
quently there can be no fire or explo-
sion. The patent is said to be appli.
cable to every species of lamp from
the modest night light necessary in
the nursery through the entire gamut
OF domestic illumination, to the draw
lng-room lamp. In the industrial world
1t could be utilized in every direction.
especially VIXEN a bright, steady light
is essential, such as engine headlights
and lights on ships.
The Great Northern and several
Scottish and Irish railways are engag-
ed u testing the capabilities of the
new process with view to it's adop-
ton in railway work. Every descrip.
ton OF lamp-the bicycle lamp, the
motor lamp, the carriage lamp. lamps
for domestic purposes, lamps in
mines-can. it is declared, be fitted
with the asbestine patent, and oil of
any flash point can be used with per-
feet safety and with the additional
advantage of considering economy. y
The problem of the safety lamp would
appear to have been solved.

When she replied her voice had a

she were speaking a lesson, uttering
some sentiment in which she had reso-

1t seemed to make him furious. He

newal of my protestations of love

out passionately, as If he could no

She was very white and the pain

Automobiles on Railroads.

The automobile has been adapted to
railroad tracks by the use of steel
fianses which are fitted on the wheels
outside the rubber tires. Light ma
chimes have been introduced on vari-
GUS railroad lines for the use of track
inspectors. Owing to the absence of
distractions on the railroad tracks
and the smoothness Of the rails a
much higher speed can be attained
than could be got out of the same ma
chine on a road.

When the wind came there was a
rain of maple leaves, weary and with.

branches, falling to swift currents

A girl came slowly down the path
that led through the naples. She
walked in a dreamy way, following
unconsciously the mere indication Of

been swallowed in the merciless hail

stepped from the shadows. He was
smiling as he put forth his hand.

Church Pews as Investments.

At Kirkham (Eng) Parish church
the greater portion of the pew rents
instead of swelling the exchequer of
the church, go into the pockets of pri.
vate individuals, who, for the most
part. do not attend the church or even
reside in the district. The peculiar
situation originated in 1923, when, to
meet the expenses of rebuilding the
church, about forty pews and a few
organ seats were put ny for auction
and realized amounts varying from
SITS to $500. The church wardens
are endeavoring to core to an ar.
rangement with the pew owners with
view to securing larger share Of
the rents for the benefit Of the church.

Under the naples the man walked
and the little leaves of brown and
yellow and those with the crimson
blots danced about him. The man
had grown old in two days, frost had
touched his temples and his face was
gray and drawn. He looked at the
red chimneys above the tree tops; he
held out his arms towards them, yearn.

little leaves danced and flew in clouds
