The Maxim In question is a son OF Sir
Hiram S. Maxim. whose name Is associ-
ated with many inventions of much I'M
portance and especially engines OF war.
As the elder Maxim invented the
Maxim quick firing gun and the auto
matte system Of firearms as well as the
smokeless powder known as cordite. 1t
seems quite In line with family tradi-
tons that the younger man should In
rent a gun which may be fired without
making a loud explosion. The principle
of this firearm is similar to that OF the
automobile muller. the gas produced
by the ignition Of the powder being
allowed to escape gradually. thus pre-
venting the sudden impact with the at
mosphere which causes the noise when
the ordinary rife or pistol is fired. The
device may be applied to any ordinary
pistol or gun. Mr.. Maxim has for some

that the tender little attentions which
mark the period of courtship and that
Immediately follow the wedding are
incompatible with the struggle for a
living; that the kiss, the caress, the lit
tie compliments, are not only unneces-
sary, but even foolish. If you desire

Angels Without Wings.
I suppose you are pretty well along
with your honeymoon by this time,
and unless your lot is different from
that of other mortals you have made
some discoveries. You have found, l
don't doubt, that the wings you sup
posed were full fiedged haven't even
sprouted. That is the amazing dis
coyery every newly married mar
makes, and the quicker he makes it
and becomes reconciled the better it Is
for his future welfare.
Angels are all well enough in pic
lures, but they would certainly crate
on our nerves il we had TO associate
with them. Nor is perfection to be de-
sired in a genuine flesh and blood wo-
man. This would be a mighty tire
some world If all Of US did exactly as
we ought. 1t is mainly u faults and
the faults Of others that furnish us the
diversion that makes life worth while.
That isn't strictly orthodox, but it's
true, and l believe it will continue to
be true as long as humanity retains
that innate cussedness which domi-
mates 1t.
Don't infer, however, that l consider
imperfections and attractions to In
crease in corresponding ratio. A little
salt Is necessary to make your food
palatable, but a very little more viii
spoil 1t. A faultless wife Is likely te
be insipid. and good, healthy imperfec

A Perpetual Honeymoon.
The popular idea of the honeymoon
is a period of a few weeks immediate
" following the wedding during which
the couple skylark around over the
country, making spectacles of them
selves for the amusement of anybody
who happens to be observing them. 1t
is a period of unrestralned billing and
cooling by the end of which they are
supposed to have become satlated and
return home to settle down to a prae-
teal. everyday life in which love and
Its outward manifestations are not TX
pected to figure to any great extent. l
sincerely hope you will not take that
view of 1t. The honeymoon should not
be subject to limitations of place or of
time. As n mere outing it should be
