Remarkable Invention by a Portuguese
Which Failed to Work.
In the London Evening Post,
dated Dec. 90 and %, 1909, is an
interesting description Of a flying
ship then lately invented BY Portu-
guese priest. Unfortunately for the
glory of Portugal ii did not Ay, as
was expected, geo miles in twenty
four hours or at all. In order that
the deeply scientific among our read
ers NAV understand the cause of its
failure we quote few extracts from
its specifications. The ship was fit
ted, in the first place, with sails
wherewith the air is to be divided"
1t had also two pairs of bellows,
(which must be blown when there
is no wind" At opposite ends of
the hull were ''the globes of heaven
and earth, containing in them the
attractive virtues" These served
as covers to ''two loadstones placed
in them upon pedestals to draw the
ship after them"
We have not yet exhausted the
list of motive powers carried by this
remarkable invention. Over the
/ whole was "a cover made of iron
wire in form of a net, on which are
fastened good number of large
amber beads, which by secret OPP
Grafton will help to keep the ship
anoat, and by the suns heat Certain
mats) that line the ship will be
! drawn toward the amber beads" 1t
is strange that flying ship fitted
with so many alternative appliances
should have failed to fly at all. Pos.
sibly the amber beads tried to fly
one way, the globes another, the
wind and the bellows worked in vet
other directions. and thus stable
equilibrium resulted. -. London

is man named Mert Robbins,
of Maryland, who ships barrel
of musk rats day. He cleared
last year over $4,000.
1t appears that those who eat
musk-rats do not know them by
that name, as they appear on Il Q
bills of fare in the fashionable
hotels and rest aurants as "swamp
rabbits" or "black ducks. -
The meat of the mu- k-rat is very
dark, and the Times says "its
flavor is as delicious as rab
bits" The musk-rat is served
In different ways, boiled, fried OF
baked. Why he is not also served
in soup is not stated.

his time in New York--wonder

ONE DRAWBACK TO A TOWNS
GROWTh.

No town will become good
husiness center SO long rs its
business men rely on a few mer
chants to make the effort to
bring trade to town. Too often
the men in a few lines of trade
are about the only ones that
reach out after custom. Other
merchants wait until these men
induce the people to come and
cont mt themselves with trade
that naturally drifts to their
place. A public spirited man
should ask himself if he is doing
his part to attract people TO
come TO town to trade in helping
the entire business community.
and no town is success unless
all lines are working to extend
the trade as far as possible and
trying to bring larger territory
In the circles in which The town
is the business center.-Rock
Hill Herald.
Our contemporaries words
are full of wisdom. Towns have
been known to prosper and grow
in spite of the failure of some Of
their business men to contribute
anything toward their advance
ment, but such towns are excep
tions to the rule. The material .
moral and educational upbuild-
ing Of community is indeed
hard and laborious work where
there is lack of unanimity of
action for the common good -.
There are, unfortunately, too
many men in almost every town
who are so intensely selfish that
they are never known to lend a
helping hand in any movement
designed to promote the general
welfare of the community. They
invariably lag behind and allow
others who may be imbued with
public spirit to do all the work :;
but they are always careful 10
participate in any of the benefits
which in a general way may re-
ward the labors Of their more
enterprising and progressive fell
low citizens. An ideal town is
one in which every man cheer
fully puts his shoulder TO the
wheel of progress. But there are
comparatively few ideal towns
in this country.
