When the rack is opened the upper

so that extra supports are provided for
the drying of the clothes. 1t win be
readily seen that this clothes rack has
the advantage over many others by
reason Of the fact that 1t need only be
expanded far enough to accommodate
the number of pieces Of clothes to be
dried.

Not Wanting . Job.

 While waiting for Mir. Lindsey to como In the shipowner got his eye on Mir. Gladstone and was watching him close iy. After doing 50 a little while he thus addressed him:
 Thou seemst good writer and clever at figures. I'll give you fl0o . year, and that's an offer thou'lt not get every dayy'
 Mir. Gladstone thanked him and said he would see Mir. Lindsey.
 Just then Mfr. Lindsey entered. Then MT. Gladstone told MT. Lindsey of tho offer his friend had made him.
 MT. Lindsey said it was a very good offer, but he did not know if Mir. Clad stone could be spared. Anyway he had better introduce them. Turning to his friend, the shipowner. he said.

N. E. o. P. NOTES.
Elm Tree Degree Team Initiated
 Glass of Candidates.

On Thursday evening Grand Guide T. Miles Payne and a party of twelve local NeopIans paid an official visit to Elm Tree lodge, N. E. 0. P. at their lodge room In New Haven. Initiation ceremonies were performed on a class of candidates by the fa- nous Elm Tree degree team. This team is comprised of twelve men as this is a male lodge, the second lar gest in the order. nearing 1000 meni- bers. The degree master had given them excellent military training and as the different movements were exc cnted rounds of applause rewarded them.
 An effort Is to be made to bring this crack team to Waterbury In the near future and as the grand warden has expressed his willingness to de- fray expenses, no doubt the local members have rare treat in store for them.
 In addition to the Waterbury mem- bers they also entertained the grand lodge officers as well as Past Grand Warden D. J. Sullivan of Riverpoint. K. l. Lunch was enjoyed and the trip home was most mirth provoking as these members are planning and enjoying these events at all times
 Friday evening Sheridan lodge, N. E. o. P. held an unusually instruct i've meeting in Columbus hall. Ques- tions which were perplexing the members of this lodge, the largest in the city, were taken pro and con and resulted ill an interesting debate, thereby bringing the subjects before the lodge in an intelligent manner. All profited by the remarks of War den William Dinneen and Secretary Timothy Garren, both members of long duration. Two applications were received and one candidate act ed upon.
 They received an invitation from Anchor lodge to be with them Novem- Der IS at Speedwell hall, at which time the twenty-first anniversary of the order will be fittingly celebrated by large class initiation. This was graciously accepted and no doubt the occasion will be a pleasant one. Su- preme and grand officers are expect ed.
 Earnest efforts are being made by Anchor lodge, N. k. O, P., to hold successful celebration of the twenty first anniversary of the order. In re- sponse to circular received from the supreme warden, F. T. Peabody of Melrose, Mass, they have signified their willingness to assist by arrang- Ing for class initiation to be held November 19 at Speedwell hall. The local lodges have been invited to fur nish candidates, although the mem- bers of Anchor lodge are striving to surprise not only their own mem- bers but the members at large. Su- preme and grand officers have been invited and no doubt many will &C., cept as Anchor lodge Is a royal enter tainer and the opportunity to be their guest is always welcomed. All mem- bers of the order are cordially invited to be present.
 On Monday evening of next week Brass City lodge. N K. o. F., expect to entertain the grand lodge officers. While 1t was hoped the grand war den, F. H. Tolles, would be present, but owing to public meeting at Danbury 1t will be impossible. A member of the grand finance commit tee,' Brother Cashmere of New Brit ain will be heard instead. All mem- bers of the order are cordially inyit- ed to attend.

 The board of aldermen will meet Monday night when 1t is likely some action will be taken on the water question. In case it should be de- cided to build new dam at the Branch to an elevation of 90 feet it would take about three years before it would be ready for use. and for this and other reasons many say it would be better to plan for the go foot dam but stop at height of 50 feet and complete it later on. This would give relief sooner than 1t can be had by completing the job at once and besides a fifty foot dam would meet the requirements of the city for about i've years and could be put up for about half a million dollars. In case this should be done the city would save the interest on the other half million dollars for i've or six yearA

What is gluten? Well, spend ten minutes and find out-not all about 1t. but something about it. Obtain . heaping tablespoonful of white -four. Add little water to it in saucer and dough it into a compact ball. Turn on the tap in the sink and let the wa ter drip from your hands as you roll the ball between your palms. The ball will grow less and less. and the water will be white with starch cells held in suspension. In ten minutes. more or less, the water will run clean and clear and you appear to have q nodule of yellow. firm. vegetable gum, which you are tempted to call ''pure" gluten. Become a gum chewer for once and keep achieving for couple of hours At the end of this time the quantity of gluten is less than when you took 1t from the hydrant What has hap pened? You have simply mechanically crushed and broken the gummy mass, exposing the infinitesimally fine starch cells to the moisture of the mouth and the washing out of the raw insolubl0 starch has continued. just an extension of the sink washing process. with greater mechanical elaboration to ex- pose the entangled starch cell. Now take the piece of gluten to an analytic chemist. When his report comes in you read starch 15 or IS or maybe 20 per cent gluten 85, 82 or 80 per cent and begin to appreciate for the first time what real gluten is. = Scientific American.

They know that to others 1t constitutes . whole world or experience, yet are themselves ex- cluded from that world by m in- superable barrier. They must take it on faith, as the color blind must take the rainbow and the sunset.
 If they are honest with themselves they will admit and lament this d. feet of sense. accepting the unavoida- ble. gazing wistfully at the walls that separate them from q realm of whose glorles they know from trustworthy report. but into which they may not enter. Sometimes. says the Dial, they are not honest with themselves. aver ring the very existence of the realm to be a fable and those who claim i0 franchise to be self deluded. finding realities in what are but vain imagin- ings. They allow music to be sound more or less agreeable, but they stout ly deny, although in the face of an overwhelming mass of testimony, that 1t has any spiritual meaning.
 The province of music is the entire emotional and spiritual life, and the in- tellcct, although necessary philosoph- ical concept, is no more to be caught by itself than those equally necessary ab- stractions, the perfect pendulum and the economic man. Science comes near est to being pure when 1t takes the mathematical form, but we cannot for get Kepler's spiritual exaltation in con- temptation of his laws of planetary mo- ton, and we may also recall what Apt vogler thought about the whole mat ter
 The rest may reason and welcome.
 Iris we musicians know.
 What are 'the substantials of life?~ Science is certainly one of them. but there are at least three others-art, eth ics and religion-and if we allow that the one Is enly here and there touched with emotion the other three are surely suffused with it through and through. And the relation of music to all three of them as surely needs no argument in it's proof, for music is itself an art. It is potent influence upon character, and it Is of the very essence of religion.
 But, being as much more than sound as poetry is more than words printed in black ink upon white paper. the character of music as an art is beyond cavil, and any likening of its effect to that of food upon the palate is supreme ly ridiculous. There are many, indeed. who would go so far as to call it the highest of the arts,. holding with Pater that every art constantly aspires to- ward the condition of music" which is "the true type or measure of perfected art" ..
 If the philosophers are right when they urge that sympathy is the founda- tion of the moral life, what more re- mains to be said in behalf of music as an effective influence upon conductf The great composer, beyond any other artist, takes Us into his intimacy, i'm. parts to us the contagion of his spirit
