RIDING IN A GLIDER"
Simple Flying Device Tried by
Aero Club Members.
MANY SHORT FLIGHTS MADE.
Other Experiments TO Be Made With
Machines Equipped With Motors.
New Device, It Is Said, Can Be
Easily Operated and Constructed.

Members of an aviation committee"
from the Aero Club of America spent
the week end recently on an estate on
the north shore of Long Island expert
menting with a glider" of the Her
ring model Members of the party
were reticent about the precise loca-
tiun of the experiments. hut it is learn
ed that members of the party succeeded
in awaiting for short flights of from
thirty TO forty feet with the glider AT
distance of from ten TO fifteen feet
from the ground.
The delegation from the Aero club
consisted of Augustus Post and Il. l..
Braine. members of the aviation com
mittee. and George II. Guy and Mr.
Ward of the club The committee was
appointed at recent meeting in New
York of the Aero club. when Court
landt Bishop, the president. observed
that the balloon had no further worlds
to conquer and that henceforth the
mission of the club would lie in the de.
velopment of aerial flight.
The investigators arrived at the Long
Island estate early the other day. They
carried with them material for their
machine. In few hours Mr. Braine
had put together the first glider of
the club. This consisted of framework
eighteen feet long and five and half
feet high as it lay on the ground. with
a width of five feet
At the top of the machine and at the
bottom We're muslin covers stretched to
the upper and lower planes of the
framework. In the center was a space
for man TO hang suspended by his
arms. The top cover was over his
head. while the bottom one would be
on level with his arms as the ma
chine was in the air. The whole
weighed forty-fve pounds.
The machine was carried TO the top
of a hill near the place of its birth,
the time. A member of the party was
placed in the central position, while
one lifted the machine at the head and
one at the foot. The passenger stood
on his own legs, with the machine par
TALLY supported in the air by the two
others At the word all began to run.
Within a few moments the machine
would glide through the air and the
two assistants would let go at the
shout of the passenger.
According to members of the party,
many flights were made whose great
place of allghting was forty feet. The
machine would rise In curve which
gradually came to earth again. For.

THE RED CROSS STAMP.
Haiku, Maui, Nov. %, 1908.

Haiku, Maui, Nov. 70, 19OS.
Mr.. Walter G. Smith, Editor, Hawaiian
Gazette Co., Honolulu.
Dear Sir: I see in your last issue of
the Gazette, Nov. "a, an account of a
meeting of the Red Cross Society and
was glad to learn thereby that the
society is still in existence here. hope
that they will in due time receive a
supply of the Red Cross Christmas
stamps to distribute. 1t occurred to me
that in the meantime it would not be
bad plan to awaken public interest
in these stamps by publishing in your
excellent paper a brief account or his
tory of the origin and use of these
stamps in Denmark and their adoption
in Delaware last year. So successful
was the Delaware experiment that the
Nat. Red Cross Ass. is this year issuing
a finer stamp to be sold all through
the Union wherever there is a Red
Cross station; the funds thus raised to
be used in the fight against tubercu-
losis.
knowing from the columns of your
paper your interest in this fight l ven
ture to think that you will do all IN
your power to arouse the interest of
our islanders in the mission of these
little Xmas stamp messengers. L can
refer YOU to an article by Jacob Riis
in the Outlook of July 6, 1907, page
81, in which he described how the
stamp originated and come to be used
in Denmark. And in the Outlook of
Oct. 8, 1908, page 265 is a very inter
esting article on the Christmas stamp
in America telling about the Delaware
experience last year and what the K. Z.
proposes to do this year.
I will enclose a clipping from the
Pathfinder of Nov. IA.
I believe the people of these Islands
will be as enthusiastic over this stamp
as others have been when they once
know about it and understand its sig
nifcance.
Yours truly,

! he reported himself cured Of the
kidney trouble, which had bothered
him for years.
How did Electro-Vigor do this (?
Simply by removing the cause and
giving nature the power to cure.
The rheumatism was caused by
the kidney trouble, and the reason
for the kidney trouble was a lack
of strength and vitality in those
organs.
Electricity, which is vitality, was
all that was needed. With that
force restored, the life and activity
of the kidneys was renewed, en-
abling them to cleanse the blood of
all impurities and the cause of
rheumatism.
When the cause of disease is re-
moved, nature makes quick cure.
Eleetro-Vigor is the only success
full device for infusing electricity
into the body. Its touch is gentle,
soothing. without sting or burn, yet
so powerful and invigorating that
you can feel the Improvement after
one application. Electro-Vigor cures,
and 1 can prove it to you.
