CAPTAIN OUT OF HIS COURSE.

Rustic Had His Own Idea About
"Plowing the Seas"
Daniel Maloney, the brave aeronaut
who met his death at Santa Clara
through the overturning Ct his aero
plane, has never any fear Of aerial
accidents.
Maloney put his trust in proficiency.
Before each ascension he studied
every detail of the car; he tried every
smallest mechanism. The young mar
always imputed aerial accidents to
aerial ignorance.
"The average a%eronaut," he said one
day, "is about as fit to a flying
machine as the Ceciltown farmer who
crossed with Capt. Lampford was to
sail a ship.
''This farmer, the second day out,
began to dislike the motion. His ap-
petite disappeared, he had a slight
headache, and he was pale and Ian
guild.
"As he leaned over the rail discon-
solately, watching With a slight shud-
der the rise and fall of the horizon,
Capt. L-ampford appeared.
"L.ook here, Capt. lampford,' said
the farmer, 'y~u Ion I understand your
business
"The captain smiled. He was will
ing to humor this poor. seaaick rustic.
"I don't understand lny business,
eh?' he said. What is the trouble
with me?'
"'Why, blame it ALL said the farm
Ell, you ought to keep in the fur
rows"

GREECE HAS PLACE OF HONOR
First Of All Countries to Develop
Architecture.

First Of All Countries to Develop
Architecture.
Our architecture came in the first
place from Greece: Egypt, Assyria,
Persia, India and the far east have
had but slight influence upon 1t, com.
pared with that welded by the small
arid, mountainous country where,
nearly 5000 years ago, men made in
the domains of art and thought. in
vestigaticns and experiments which
are of immediate and direct value to.
us even today. One cannot reflect
upon this without a feeling of aston
ishment. 1t shows us the closeness
of our connection with the people Of
distant ages, the community that
exists, in spite Of seeming differences,
among the human species on our plan
ct. A well conducted experiment per-
formed at one spot OF the earth and
in one hour Of time can be Of use to
the whole world and through all ages.
The Greeks of the sixth and fifth CEN
turtles B. G. made such an experiment
as this when they thought of a GER
tain form Of temple with columns,
and laid down certain rules for it's
construction. And we of the twentieth
century turn to the subtle minded
Greeks of 2.400 years ago when we
have to deal with a problem in archi-
lecture and want to know how to
solve it with elegance and precision.

Ole Cosmopolition

A leading magazine for eigh-
teen years. With the recent
change of ownership it has been
improved. 1t is far better in
every respect, and aims to be
the best in its field. Every year
or so there's one notable adj
vance in the forward movement
among the many magazines.
This year it is the Cosmopolitan.
And this shall be a splendid per-
manent success. 1t gains in
newsstand sales and in SUBJ
scriptions have been remarkable.
And these are due only to the
new life and real merit. The
Cosmopolitan is printing WHAT
THE PEOPLE WANT. 1t con-
tains regularly the best fiction,
best special articles on timely
topics and best illustrations that
money can buy.

SuCceHs Of LIQUID Fuel.

A successful method has finally been
invented for injecting liquid fuel into
the furnaces Of passenger boats. The
fuel Is brought under a pressure Of
from ten to twenty pounds to the
square inch and e%vaporated by a ome
what modified "Kortings'' burner with
out use Of steam. This apparatus works
very satisfactorily, without noise and
without the loss of fresh water. A suit
able furnace arrangement recently in
vented also guarantees proper and per-
feet burning Of the fuel, 80 that very
little smoke escapes from the funnel,
steam Is kept regularly at the same
pressure during the voyage and the
boiler Ia kept ut a uniform tempera-
ture, thus preventing much trouble
from leakage and other damage.-Chi-

DISAPPEARING REFRIGERATOR,

be true, the use Of the disappearing
refrigerator Is capable Of a wide range
of usefulness and at Il small cost can
be installed in the houses Of the city
and the householder emancipated from
the grasp Of the iceman.
The device consists Of a partitiOned
steel box hung III a wire cable, by
mean OF which the box can be lowered
into the we'll or raised therefrom Mt
will. The mechanism by which this Is
done is Of such a character that the car
Is locked as it rises SO us to prevent
the possibility Of it falling to the bot
tom by any accident while it is in a
raised position.
The box being made Of metal and
hanging OH wire or metal rope, It Is
doubly secure against the visitations
Of vermin, and when its presence is
desired above the ground for the pur-
pose Of loading or the removal Of the
contents from its shelves the operation
Of raising 1t is performed by the gear
ing, which is easily worked by a crank.
