EXHAUST FOR MOTOR BOAT.
How It Can Be Arranged So az to Be
Practically Noiseless.

Everyone who rides in a motor boat
will be indebted to the Motor Boat
magazine for suggesting this method
of abolishing the nuisances of the ex-
haust It is. simple enough-when you
know how. Run the exhaust pipe over
board at a point one-half foot above
water line, and there screw on an
ordinary elbow, leaving it free to turn.
Into the elbow screw solidly four feet
of 1h-inch pipe, and to this attach a
wire or cord by which the end may
be held up out of the water. Now,
with little practice, you can master
the problem of noiseless, odorless,
heatless, sprayless exhaust.
With the hinged pipe drawn up out
of the water, start your engine. AS
soon as the boat gains Roadway drop
the pipe in, and you will be delighted
to discover that your boat Is actually
going faster and your engine running
freer, and without noise or smell.
The reason Is evident. The water
rushing past the open end of the pipe
produces suction which makes the
exhaust more perfect, emptying the
cylinder Of all exploded gas after each
stroke of the piston, so that the next
explosion has full effect. On account
of varying speed at different times a
little experimenting may be necessary
in order to find just the right depth to
which the pipe end should be dropped.
The vacuum may be still further in
creased, If desired.

A Problem Of the Streets.

The number OF carriages and We
hicles of every description crowding
the streets of Paris augments continu-
ally, and the danger, not only to Pc
destrians, but to the carriages them
selves, has become so great that an
engineer, Monsieur Henard, proposes

Gus crossings, of circular island OF
refuge" in the center, and the regu-
lation of all traffic in such a manner
that every vehicle traversing the
crossing-point, no matter what its ul-
innate direction may be, shall pass
round the central plateau in the same
direction. Thus the danger of
collision and the peril to foot-passen-
gers would be reduced to minimum.
The cut illustrates the operation OF
this proposed whirlpool of traffic.

TABLE DELEGATES.
RECIPES FOR BOTH NEW AND
OLD DISHES.
To Prepare Unfermented Grape
Juice-Canned Grape Juice With
Sugar-Raisine Marmalade Is
an Idea from France.

Unfermented Grape Juice.-Wash
and pick over sound Concord grapes,
rejecting all that are soft. Put in a
stone jar and place this in a boiler,
with cold water to nearly the depth
of the jar. With wooden spoon crush
lightly when they begin to cook, at the
same time pushing the grapes from
the top of the jar toward the bottom.
Cook about two hours or until the
grapes are all softened. Then pour
into large bag to drain. Do not press
or squeeze or the juice will be cloudy.
Have ready perfectly clean and we'll
sterilized bottles with the patent
china or metal tops. If you do not
have these, be sure your corks are
new, soaking them first in cold water
so they can be pressed in tightly. Re-
heat the juice to the boiling point,
cook steadily half an hour, removing
the scum as it rises to the surface.
Turn into the hot bottles and seal
alright.
Canned Grape Juice With Sugar.
Put the grapes, washed and sorted,
into a preserving kettle and add
little cold water, but not enough to
cover. Cook slowly until the skins
break, MASKING and stirring from time
to time with wooden spoon. When
softened and at the boiling point, pour
into new coarse jelly bag to drain.
Measure the juice and to each quart
allow quarter-pound granulated
sugar. Boil again four minutes, turn
into hot sterilized bottles and seal
while hot.
Raisine.-To make this famous
French marmalade allow an equal
weight of grapes, cook in little water
until soft, then press through a COL
ander to remove the seeds. Add the
pears, cored and sliced, and simmer
until thick, stirring almost constant
ly. When thick, sweeten to taste, scald,
strain through colander and can.
Grape ReIish.-Pick from the stems
seven pounds of grapes, rather under
ripe, and put the skins in preserving
kettle over the fire with just enough
water to prevent their burning. Place
the pulp in another kettle and cook un-
til the seeds loosen. Press through a
sieve and add to the skins with a
half pint of vinegar, three pounds of
sugar and a teaspoonful each cloves,
allspice and cinnamon. Boil until
thick. This is fine to serve with game
or roast meats.

TRADES GREAT MAGNET.
How Some Mammoth, Fortunes Have
Been Built Up. 49,.

Many Of the great fortunes in Amer.
lea have been gained by the judicious
use of printers ink. The wealthiest
merchants attribute their success to
advertising. Millions and millions of
dollars worth of manufactured prod
ucts are annually sold to the people
of the United States through the ad.

AS to the mail order houses. there

There is every cause for alarm that
they will eventually grow into such
mammoth institutions as will monop.
Ollie the business that is now the
backbone and spine of the country
towns. There is one way that the
merchants can lessen the evil. It is
by persistent use of the public press.
Use advertising space, meet the com.

the people know about it.
Hundreds of would-be business ven
lures have failed just because there
was no proper advertising. Hundreds
and thousands of small merchants fail
for the same cause. The paper in q
small town is of greater force than
the average merchant thinks. If the
storekeeper desires to test his home
paper as an advertising medium, let
him insert an advertisement of some
article and put the price lower than
it is generally sold at. Then await
results. He will find that the people
will learn of it, and call to see about
it.

about goods, about prices, and every

Mrs. Henrietta Keeney sat in her

to spasmodic jerks that almost re-

altogether. Mrs. Keeney had been sit

wise some way out of her dilemma,
when she heard the honk, honk of a
motor car.

they turned to the sisters Googan.

asked in the same breath.
