Sly Mr.. Robert Edeson has known
about it all this time, but only now has
he chosen to explain and classify Ibsen.
1t takes Mr.. Archer or Mr.. Brandes a vol
ume to show how much they see in the
Norwegian. Mr.. Edeson is finished in a
paragraph;
Suppose YOU were to make a win in
the language used by Ibsen in bringing
out his characters. would you be pro.
Eounced Of sound mind and capable? And
would any court be able to interpret such

ideas is undoubted, but his expression is
complicated to the point of incomprehen-
sibility. 1t Is filled with hah1ing symbols
that are Norwegian to the core. and to
pretend to understand the meaning of ev-
eryihing that is in HIS plays is mere pc
dantry. Shakespeare dallies but little
with the sign language and he promises
to live forever. I believe in Shakespeare
and the American dramatists who write
with American minds and clean purpose

England. nor do | wish to present any

The thoughtful always are thankful

The system of COMPRISING air by
falling water. as installed in several
places in the United States and Can
ada, is claimed to have an efficiency of
seventy-five to eighty-three per cent.
The water flows through a large hori-
zontal pipe to a vertical one, at the
upper end Of which is the circular loop
1f an air pipe with great number of
fine holes In its lower side. and as the
water drops past the ring innumerable
air bubbles are drawn along and COM
pressed. At the bottom the water
turns suddenly and comes to rest in q
reservoir, into which the air rises I'M

be drawn off as desired, and when the
reservoir is full any excess passes

The difference of a few feet in the
level of the inflow and outflow pipes
gives a rapid flow Of water, while the
amount of compression depends en-

HORSES THAT WOULDN'T DROWN
Remarkable Deeds Recorded by Two
Veracious ChronicIers.

An Albanian VINO has just returned
from the east, where freshets have
been the rule, tells the following about
horse which had been attached to
a foot bridge crossing brook, to
keep the structure from going adrft.
The flood finally swept horse and
bridge down stream. Later, the
bridge was discovered lodged against
the bank, with the horse sitting quiet
ly on the former.
A bystander who had listened in
tently to this tale, remarked quietly:
II see suthin', similyar oncet."
Indeed? What was it," asked the
story teller.
"Ye see," was the reply, "arter the
boss see was took down stream, no.
