all the parts have been carefully sewn
together. looking somewhat similar to
bricks placed one upon another In wall,
the entire envelope is bathed In the mix
ture Of linseed oil, varnish and rubber,
which ! have already mentioned. In the
meantime, while the envelope Is drying,
taking on that yellow oilskin appearance,
the basket, or car, Is being finished. This
Is simply an enlarged square clothes
basket, built Of very strong rattan and
other reeds. But in the basket is woven
a maze OF strong ropes, which are spe-
cially manufactured for ballooning. On
the end OF these ropes are exceedingly
strong catches made OF wood which are
called toggie. These slip into loops that
suspend from the load ring, which is that
little ring you usually see Just above
the head Of balloonists IN pictures. This
ring Is the connecting link between the
car and the envelope. The ring is made
Of hickory or q similar tough wood.
Meanwhile the netting which goes over
the envelope has been put together. This
IS one Of the incest problems In the
balloonmaker's work. The ropes must
be so netted that as the lines converge
toward their meeting point at the load
ring the bottom lines must be Just as
many times stronger as there are lines
around the equator Of the balloon, and
the lines Of the netting must be ad-
/ justed TO an exact nicely over all.
When the envelope Is dry the valve is
| placed at its very top. This valve is
/ made OF wood. and IS so contrived that
it opens precisely as the navigator Wills.
/ But besides the valve there Is sewn into
the side OF the balloon for emergencies
/ an oblong arrangement called the rip
cord. The use Of this will be apparent
Immediately.
The balloon Is now rendv for an ascen-

more Ignorant OF things that lie outside
OF their immediate ken than they are,
so I do not suppose that I am so very
stupid 10 have assumed that all there Is
TO a balloon Is simply a gas bag and
some ropes to hold the basket under
meath. My idea as TO the manner OF
landing was simply that the balloon
dropped when II got ready to do so, and
thus the daring persons who rode In such
foolish cOnveyances found terra frma
again. After Analysing a balloon with
an expert I can readily understand that
comparatively Il is just as safe man
ner Of locomotlon as the automobile. and
a sensible understanding OF Its construc-
ton and manipulation has engendered
very ardent desire to ride In It.
Such balloon as ! saw 10 the course
OF construction In the workshop Is put
together according to a scientific plan
that Is figured down to the mlnutest de-
tail on paper. A balloon-maker IKE
stevens knows the location OF each rope
and each templet and each toggIe, and
this part OF the valve and that part OF
the ripcord. Just as an architect knows
where he has placed the different things
that go to make up the house be Is build
ing. Aud, like an architect the balloon
maker has his plan always before him.
He works exactly according to his
scale 10 the most lnhniresimal detail. He

called. is made. usually OF silk or sew
eral varieties OF cotton or linen. The ma
terial is cut into many pieces shaped Ike
bricks These vary In size according to
their location. Then the templets, as
each piece Is called. are sewn -cther;
each edge is folded In six thlcknesses.
This Is done so that II by any accident

IN the balloon Is not sufficient 20 cause
serious trouble. And IN this connection
the balloon maker explains that Il is I'M
possible for an accident 10 happen
through the bursting OF a balloon Ia the
air. He shows thar even II a templet
should give and all the gas disslpate,
whatever way you look at II the balloon
has sufficient area 20 form natural par

purposed 10 describe simply a balloon
factory and 20 tell something about bal

/ ind myself constantly recurring 70 Mr..
Stevens; for his history and the story Of
ballooning as a pastime are as closely in
terwoven MS the rigging OF a balloon Is

It was not his definite purpose TO create

regular show trade his ceaselessly intelli-
gent work and unconscious exploitation
of the subject by his own enthusiasm be-

who take to automobiling for the danger
there is In Il. and when Stevens saw
that the people were beginning to regard
the balloon as n medium OF sport for
amateurs he set his restless brain TO
work upon its improvement and 20 make
IL less hazardous and more comfortable.
For the first 10 years OF his professional
life be was a show balloonist pure and
simple. He was the third person In
America to make a parachute leap. He
lived most OF his waking life up IN the

however, began to be overcrowded. and

Houses Made of Glass Bricks.

The demand for hollow bricks and build
Ing blocks for house construction has
induced glass manufacturers to put boil
low glass bricks on the market, and
they promise TO be used extensively for
novel and artistic effects. The first glass
bricks proved a failure, commercially, on
account Of their cost, but the hollow
glass brick can be made at much less
expense. They are lighter and stronger
than clay bricks, and are such excellent
nonconductors that walls built OF them
are proof against dampness, sound. heat
and cold. The bricks are sealed her
metically when hot and are placed in
walls built with a colorless mortar made
o. special glass. The binding strength
OF the glass mortar Is almost as great
as the bricks themselves. For orna-
mental friezes, string courses and facades
they are of special value and add greatly
TO the artistic effects. For those who

Fortune. Lost in Tobacco Ash.

a good many years is how TO get back the
lost fortunes that we knock from the

II has been estimated that one ton OF to
bacco has In its growth taken mineral
