snhmarlne Kite

A strange kite has bees. devised by a
Swedish engineer. ii is made to fly
sTasr water. 1t is ,maaesNf light tean-
vas adjusted to n light but sstrong
metal frame and in shape is not dis
similar to the aerial kite, except that, it
Is made In two sections, the lower and
smaller one depending from thesupper,
with which it is connected by a sort of
coupling. The object sought by the II
gineer is to provide ships with al ever
ready automatic guard or watch that
will give instant alarm If the vessel
enters shoal waters and is approaching
the spot where the depth is not suIi.
Gent for safety. The underwater kite
Is fastened to a thin wire cable at
tached to a winch on deck. The pur-
pose of the water kite is to float be-
meath Or beside the ship at Il depth
that is sufficient to insure safety. If
at any time. day or night, the lower
section of the kite strikes bolt IN a
device instantly releases the coupling
with which it is secured to the HE
section, and an alarm bell is sounded
on the deck of the endangered vessel.
Precautions eau at once be taken to
secure its safety. The kite meanwhile
is drawn up, readjusted and thrown
overheard to maintain its faithful
watch

Standard Oil Prosperity.

OF all investments now offered the
public, zone perhaps is so certain
to produce quick and large profits as
the stock of the Self-Tbreading Sew
ing Machine Needle Company, of
Minneapolis. This is true because
the manufacturers of this wonderful
needle have a monopoly of the bust
ness and having already u larger de-
mand than they can meet, and as
the profit of needles is simply enor-
mous-atout 600 per cent-owners Of
stock in this concern are more than
likely to experience some real Stand
ard Oil prosperity. If you have a
few idle dollars that you'd like to
invest at some thing like IL per cent
to begin with, 1T will certainly pay
you to investigate this. The Self
Threading Needle Co.'S. offices are at
suite 7O8, Andrus Bldg, Minneapolis.

If the great republic must have q

is not commonly known that the to-
bacco plant bears a very pretty pink
blossom, which might come into the

disagreeable odor. The Indian corn, or
maize, is another plant indigenous to
the United States and was found In
use as food by the Indians from Vlr.
ginia to Massachusetts. But If we
must have a flower that is esteemed as
such without regard to any economic

Alligator Likes Baths.

One of the curio stores ON Charities
street has an alligator that likes soap
and water baths and receives one ev-
cry day. This gator is quite a pet and
shows as plainly as possible that he
enjoys his daily bath. 1t has been in
the store for several years and has
grown to be about five feet long. Ev-
cry morning one OF the negroes en-
ployed in the place takes d bucket CT
hot soapsuds and a stiff scrubbing
brush and gives the alligator his tub.
The animal has come to look for this
and never moves while he is being
scrubbed. He turns over on each side
so that his claws can be washed and
seems to realize that the daily washing
improves his appearance greatly. He
has become quite a pet and seems to
recognize all the employees Of the store
whenever they approach his cage.
The same store has another alligator
which is about seven feet long, but
this II does not permit liberties of
any kind to be taken with him. The
proprietors Of the store keep the alli-
gators for exhibition purposes and
would not part with either of them

PreservinE Our Forests.

One of the most hopeful signs of the
times is the changing attitude of the
ltmbermen toward the science Of for
Sstry as fostered by the federal gov
ernment. They are beginning to see
that their industry is doomed to an
early extinction unless the waste is
checked and the forest is renewed for
future generations. And more than
this. unless the forests are preserved,
vast tracts of fertile and prosperous
America will become desert in the next
century. This is a lesson taught by
such countries as Tunis, o a part
Of the north African desert which in
old times was a smiling and populous
garden. An Arab chronicler relates
that lin those days one, could walk
from Tunis to Tripoli in the shade"
The Arab conquest destroyed the
forest and the desert swept over the
face Of the land.-Ralph d. Paine. in

about them to indicate their appella-

nelghborhood Of Springfield, Mass, the
owners Of farms have improved on this
custom, for they are proud enough of
the names their places are known by
to paint them on the gable ends of their

lei Superstition.

All the old sea dogs at League island
agree that the new battleship Tennes-
e is destined to experience some mis-
fortune. When the commission pen
nant was unfurled on the Tennessee,
instead Of floating out in a long, mar
row streamer it wrapped itself around
the mast and continued to do SO every
time it was unwrapped. The sailors
say that this happens rarely, but when
1t does it forebodes evil. When the
battleship Missouri, on which the dis
astrous turret explosion occurred, went
into commission her pennant did the
same thing.-Philadelphia Record.
