Two Boys.

One of the greatest pleasures in the
life of a small boy is to receive an
invitation from an older companion
to accompany him to the nearest drug
store and stand by while the elder
lad orders ice cream soda for h1mseil
and calmly eats it alone, after which
both file out of the store. 1t is an IN
cident which will go down to the
grave with every boy who witnesses

"All my life | had been troubled more

was covered with little sores, which
itched so it nearly made me crazy; my
hair also began to get dry and fall out. l
tried all kinds of hair restorers with no
effect, and / was nearly discouraged, but
one day 1 was reading in Il paper what
the Cuticura Remedies had done for scalp

itching stopped, and my hair began TO

of life at sea. The day OF great disasters
at sea seems to be passing away. None
Of the big liners could now be in peril more
than a few hours before her wireless would
bring to her rescue some one or more OF
her fellow ships. Scientific m ethods Of
fighting fire by gas, the bulkhead arrange
ments, the skill Of the builders have about
robbed the ocean of it's perils for travellers
on the liners. The deadly iceberg is about
the only danger still doing business at the old
stand.
But all this gain is at the expense Of at
least one more loss. See what they do to
the hapless wight that runs the elevator
on the America. To quote George AIDE:
This boy leads a oheckered career on
each voyage. When he departs from New
York he is the elevator boy. AS the vessel
approaches Plymouth, England, he becomes
the lift attendant. At Cherbourg he is
translated into a garCon d'ascenseur, and
as the ship draws near Hamburg he is the
Aufzugsbehutter, which is an awful thing
to call a mere child"

good weather is always picked for these
pleasure trips and for the few hours Of the
day that they last the conditions are usually
favorable for ar enjoyable outing.
Many ofthe travellers are very fond Of 60
ing aloft on bright and quiet moonlit nights,
descending in the morning perhaps 100
miles or more from home. The moon was
glorious one night when Silberer was sail
ing along about 5000 feet above his native
land.
Happening to look away from the moon
he saw on the other side the mighty shadow
Of his big balloon, clean cut and every
contour and rope revealed, against a bank
OF white cloud that extended for miles. By
watching the protuberances Of the cloud
above the general mass he saw that he was
moving faster than the cloud and he judged
about twenty-five miles an hour.
We may realize the unbounded delight
with which he gazed upon this superb
silhouette Of his majestic ship skimming
along this wall of white mist at railroad
speed.

CARRIED LETTERS FREE.
A Postal Record Broken After the San
Francisco Earthquake.

One thing about the San Francisco earth
quake and fire which interests Govern
ment employees is the fact that for the first
time since the civil war Uncle Sam dis
regarded entirely the Post Office regula-
tons.
On the morning of the earthquake and for
several days afterward people wrote let
tiers and mailed them wherever they could,
and the post Office employees, who stuck
to it right through, collected them and sent
them ahead without postage. Letters were
written in pencil on SCRAPS of paper, cuffs,
collars and bits of gloves, but all went.
There is a regulation of the Post Office
Department that any soldier or slilor in
active Government service nay have a
letter franked through without postage
by his officers and it will be delivered, but
the recipient must pay the postage upon
delivery at the regular rate.
In the civil war there was considerable
confusion in the matter OF franks. Some
times the recipient paid, and sometimes a
missive marked Soldiers Letter went
through without pay at the other end.
But since then Uncle Sam never delivered
any col siderable body Of mail free up to the
time OF the San Francisco ca rthquake,
the confusion into which a great city. was
thrown, that the Pos, ONCE should have
cut its red tape in this particular. No
regulations covered the matter: it WIS a
plain case of horse serse on the part of Post
ma ster Fiske and his assistants.
The heads of the branch pest Offices in
New York were puzzled to know whether
to deliver these letters without payment
or whether to Ia the ordinary 2 cents an
ounce. as in the case of the soldier letters.
In most cases they let San Francisco letters
70 free.

dumping 1t overheard. He found a variety
of ways. First came the florist shop.
There was a young woman acquaintance
of his on board. He ordered violets-
fresh vi~olets-sent to her three times daily
from port to port. That helped a little.
Of course, there was a barber shop. He
got shaved and shampooed twice a day;
every morning he had his face massag &c d;
and, of course, all these jobs had to be
lone in his suite. 1t cost more that way.
He discovered the manicure girl early
in the game, too. He visited her every
day. And few manicure girls will refuse
large. very large, tips, This one didn't,
anyhow.
Not long after that he ran afoul of an
electric light bath arrangement. You get
into a cabinet that covers all of you but
your head, which sticks out at the top.
Then you take a bath of dry heat, the same
being furnished by electricity. The tenn
perature mounts to surprising hei gifts,
and the doctors say it's good for some
kinds of complaints. Our millionaire had
no complaints, except too much money,
but he tried the electric bath, and it helped
that trouble somewhat.
The wireless telegraph system was Of
great assistance to him, too. AS soon as the
vessel got within striking distance OF the
Sable Island station the man with the money
began to send longwinded dispatches to all
his friends ashore. When he ran out of
friends he began to send insults-to divers
enemies. He made 'em good and hot and
sent all the adjectives the operators would
stand for. There was a man out in Green
River who had stolen his girl from him
when they were both ranching it years ago.
He got one of those wireless kilograms from
below the horizon.
There was a bookstore, too. Whenever
send him or her one of the ten best sellers
with his compliments.
Then, when it was all over but the GUS
toms officers, he began on tips. He tipped
about everybody but the higher officers,
and would have tried it on them II the gold
lace hadn't scared him.
Still, early habits are not easily buried
beyond resurrection, and though the man
threw his money around most scandalously,
he wasn't as. careless as he looked
He made a note of every cent he spent
He totalled t up as soon as he got ashore
and settled down in his old rooms at the
Waldorf. He averred, and produced the
corroborative figures, that he had spent
s3,745 on his ~seven-day trip from port to
port. And he hadn't touched a card or
ratified the dice.
OF course our young and hard working
! millionaire is a freaky exception but 1t only

One Of these enthusiastic travellers In the

selves grow small, while earthly sunsets

We may appreciate the enthusiasm OF
Mrs. Howard Gould the other day over the
panorama Of England, just bursting
into green and bloom. 1t was her first
ascent and she says she wishes to go up
again when more wind is stirring.
The pastime Of ballooning is just being
introduced into this country and there is no
reason to doubt that 1t will become as pop
ular here as it is abroad, where asoents are
now so common that most Of them are not
even mentioned in the newspapers. A word
OF caution should be always on the lips OF
the leaders in these undertakings.
1t is in the early period Of %ballooning for
amusement that most OF the accidents come.
These journeys should always be managed

ment. There are scores OF balloon clubs
on the European mainland.
France is far in the lead, but Germany is
now making great progress in the utiliza-
ton of the balloon for purely pleasure
purposes, and there are a number Of very.
thriving clubs in Austria. The ballooning
association in Germany, known as the
Deutscher Luftschiffer Verband, now in
cludes nine clubs and has a total member
ship of 2,743. with twelve balloons.
The Berlin club, the largest in the asso-
citation, has six balloons, and one of the most
active promoters of the club is the German
Emperor, who several years ago made a
present of 81 900 to the club treasury.
One of the recent journeys was from Berlin
to Pinsk, Russia, a distance of 62l miles.
The largest %ballooning organization in
Austria is the Aero Club Of Vienna, one OF
whose members, Herbert Silberer, has made
himself known to b~alloonists everywhere by
the charming boob he has written describing
t~wenty-nine of his ascents. The book Is
illustrated with remarkable photographs
taken at elevations Of a few hundred feet
to 14,432 feet above the earth.
With one or two companions and some
times alone, he has made many ascents
from Vienna, usually of short duration,
though he has sometimes drifted into
Hungary and once was carried over the
mountains of South Germany to the plains
of Prussia. His photographs have added

club was fairly launched only t~hirty-six
accidents of all kinds have occurred, most
Of them slight, involving a little impairment
or destruction OF outfit and on some
occa sions injuries to persons.
Only n person has been killed. In the
last two years eighty-four ascents a
been made, in which five women toe part,
without an accident worth mentioning.
As far as the records show. in the 119
years from 17ssto 1902 only ifty-two persons
met their death as the result of balloon
accents. This period embraces the many
yearB Of crude experimentation when the
percentage Of loss Of life was very much
greater than in the last few years Of the
perfected spherical balloon.
In five months of 1870, during the siege Of
Paris, sixty-four balloons were sent up
from the beleaguered city carrying 1856
persons, nine tons Of dispatches and 3,0oo,-
900 letters. They were hot at by Ger
man cannon and rifles and a gun especially
invented to throw shells at the aerial trans
ports, but in spite of the multiplied dangers
all but seven Of them delivered their des-
patches and completely fulfilled their mis-
sions.
Two of the seven failed because they
landed in Germany. Only one life was lost.
The balloon in that case was blown out
over the Atlantic and lost.
1t is such facts as these that have given
the great impulse to ballooning as an amuse-
