Retaliation.

A man who was a guest at one OF
the summer resorts in West Virginia
tells of wedding ceremony he wit
messed in the town near by.
The minister was young and easily
embarrassed. 1t was the first wedding
he had ever undertaken. The prospec.
tive bride and groom were both youn-
ger and still more easily embarrassed
than he.
When the minister had finished the
service and muttered few kindly but
hating words to the young couple he
had just united the bride looked at
him, blushing, but confident.
Thank YER she said clearly. ''1ts
shore kind o. yer to congratulate us
an as long as you haven't ever been
married yit maybe We'll have a chance
some day to retaliate." Harper's
Weekly.

His Mothers Ruse Failed.

A Kansas City professional man,
who is prominently identified with Mis-
souri, politics, tells the following story
on himself:
"My folks moved from Indiana to
Johnson county, Mo-, when I was six
years of age. We settled on farm
near Holden. The first Sunday we
were there and while the family was
preparing for Sunday school it was
discovered that did not have any
shoes. My mother, realizing that folks
would talk If one of her children made
his first public appearance barefooted,
suggested that have a cloth tied
around one foot to create the impress
sion that was unable to wear shoes
because Of a sore foot. So the rag was
tied on me. Every thing went along
smoothly, and learned all about bears
eating the bad children up when
heard smoker from boy / after
ward licked. He was pointing to my

The rag had slipped of, and my

NEW MOTOR IS OPERATED
 BY CARBONIC ACID GAS
Philadelphian Declares His Device Will Revolationize Mechanical
 World

A new motor run by carbOnic acid gas and which its inventor says will rev olutionize the mechanical world more than the discovery of steam and cleo trical power, was given a public demon stration in Philadelphia recently. To the average observer, unaequainted with the workings of the modernism, the new motor apparently did all that was claimed for it.
 The entire motor, capable of gener- ating eighty-fve horse power, would fit in box two feet square, and the carbonic acid gas, supplied from a sim pie system of tanks, becomes reliquifed while doing its work, and flows back to be used time and time again. The cost of operation is said to be very slight. The economy of the machine is almost as striking as the power, and if it proves applicable to arduous tasks, it will be a valuable saving over present methods.
 The inventor says the new motor can be used in automobiles at the cost of one tenth of mill per horse power, or about 4 cents a month. One ton of coal will supply the new motor with 6,000 pounds of earbonie acid gas. One pound of the gas will run loo horse power engine.
 The exhaust attachment, by means of which the gas is used time and again, is considered by the inventor one of the most valuable parts of his motor.

Giant Becomes a "Middy,

Herbert E.. Dunton of Boise City, Idaho, strapping western youth of 220 pounds, was admitted to the naval ae- ademy as midshipman today, after conquering difficulties in a manner unique in the history of the institution. Dunton was 20 years old today, having reached the maximum age prescribed by law for admission to the naval academy, and obtained special physical exam ination yesterday in advance of the others who have passed the recent men, tai tests.
 Although a splendid physical speci- men, it developed that Dunton had en- larged tonsils, and could not be ap- proved by the examining surgeons un- less they were cut out. Dunton asked that this be done immediately, and the operation was performed, and Dunton sworn in as midshipman on the last day that it was possible under the law.
 Last year Dunton was member of the football team of the University of Idaho, the champion eleven of the northwest, and he will try to make a place on the naval academy team. He is five feet ten inches in height, and has the neck and shoulders and back of an ox.-Annapolis dispatch to the New York World.

CARS RUN ON ONE RAIL
Englishman Invents System Which May Revolutionize Methods of Trans
 portation

Under the auspices of the Royal so- ciety, the leaders of the English seien- tifc world listened to Louis Brennan, C. B., explain his new mono-railroad, and at its conclusion acclaimed him worthy of a place in the hall of fame, beside Newton, Watts and Stevens, says a recent dispatch from London.
 Mr. Brennan, who is a man of great wealth and the inventor of the Bren- nan torpedo, Great Britain s most dead ly and secret naval weapon, showed a miniature railway ear or locomotive standing entirely upon a single rail, with apparently nothing to balance it, nun about the hall, turn sharp corners at high speed, cross single strand of wire cable in lieu of a bridge and climb heavy inclines-all with perfect stability.
 IL was sometimes loaded, sometimes empty. There was no attempt to bal ance the load; the vehicle itself did that instantly and automatically. Ev-
 
 a paradox. If the load was piled upon one side it seemed inevitable that the vehicle would sag, if, indeed, it did not toppe over. But no, the overloaded side automatically rose in proportion to the burden and the empty side was de- pressed.
 In a word, Mir Brennan utilizes the Idea of boys spinning top. He de- serI6es his invention thus:
 1.-The characteristic feature of this system of transport is that each ve- hlc.e IS capable of maintaining it's bal ance upon an ordinary rail laid upon 'ieepers on the ground, whether it is standing still or moving in either di- Tection at any rate of speed, notwith- standing that the center of gravity is several feet above the rail, and that "!nd pressure, shifting of load, cen IHHgaI action or any combination of 'nese forces may tend to upset it.
 'Ihe mechanism consists essentially or two fywheels, rotated directly by slec'Tlc motors in opposite directions at very high velocity and mounted so mat their gyrostatic action and their stored up energy can be utilized. These Hy"heels are placed in exhaustible ,a'es, so that both air and journal fric- ton IS reduced to a minimum and con. Syquently the power required to keep mem m rapid motion is very small.
 The stored up energy in the fly ""eeIs' when revolving at full speed, 5 S so great and the friction is so small 'n"' II the driving current is cut off altogether, they will run at sufficient t,o.'Vc''y to impart stability to the ve- a'T'e Tor several hours, while it will ,%" p"y rom two to three days before 'ney come to rest.
 The road wheels are placed in 'IeG row beneath the center of the '"''ieS, instead of in two rows near 1' 'iues, as usual, and are carried on
 s''' or compound bogies, which are %o, only Pivoted to provide for hor. ra.,. 'i curves on the track, but for vebioIal bJal ones also. By this means the Ios. can run upon curves of even yob;I Is iaalus than the length of the roi,' ''' itself, or on crooked rails or d.ra. ."'o over uneven ground without ''Dser of derailment.
