She took OF her hat as she spoke.
The of hair revealed by the ac-
ton was indeed beautiful, of a light
chestnut In color and m%arvelously
thick and wavy.
"How vain you are" said her lover.
Don't you ever have a serious thought
about anything but being pretty?"
Kitty flushed angrily. Cant you
let a girl find what pleasure she can
in her WI good looks?" she retorted.
Goodness knows there's little else
around here to enjoy. If you don't
like the way I act, let me alone. I'm

man and left her at once. She founced
on, telling herself she hoped indeed
that he would, serious old fogy, always
talking about improving himself, and
getting married, and such bothersome
things.
When Kitty reached her home she
went at once to her little room, and.
standing before the glass, let down
all her beautiful hair and admired It
to her hearts content.
"Cut it of and sell It'll" she said re.
membering the hairdresser's offer.
I'd sooner cut my head of. I'd
starve with it rather than live without
it." And she braided It into two long
plaits and went into the other room to
get supper.

had gone away, and as the davs

she r%eproached herself for her hastv

RECENT INVENTIONS.

n French army officer has invented
eye glasses which enable the wearer
to see on all sides and the rear.
A substitute for marble which an
swers many of its purposes satisfac-
torily is made of waste Stag from
blast furnaces and lime, pulverized.
compressed and then treated with
carbOnic acid.
One of the largest sawmills in the
world has been erected on the island
of Hawaii by a company which has a
contract to furnish a million ties a
year to an American railroad.
The speed of automobiles is con-
trOlled at crossings in a Chicago sub
urb with considerable success by the
creation of hummOcl in the road by
raising the sidewalk crossing above
the road level.
A device which forces water down
to the roots of plants is said to pro-
duce wonderful improvement in
crops.
An entirely new method of serving
ice cream is the recent patent of a
New York man. He abolishes the
old system by means of a spoon
This ice cream server is in the form
of a cylinder, which is attached to a
handle. Sliding within the handle
and the cylinder are a piston and
plunger. so devised that the inser-
ton of the instrument into the re-
ceptacle containing the ice cream
will cause the receiver to be filled.
Pressure upon the piston causes the
contents of the cylinder to be ex-
PEELED. The plunger is operated in a
novel manner by means of trigger,
which is set in the handle convenient
for operation by the fingers of the
operator.
Working around electric wires
with an ordinary screwdrivcr has
been the cause of numerous injuries
to the operators. Contact with the
live wire, of course, results in short
circuit. How easily such accidents
can be averted is shown by Con-
necticut man, who has invented and
patented the insulated screwdriver.
Instead of constructing the handle of
wood, it is made of non conducting
material. The latter also incases the
metal shank to within few inches
of the end. This allows ample sur
face for the operator to grasp and
operate the screwdriver without fear
OF being electrically shocked by con-
I, tact with live wire, and is thus as
sured Of protection from such acci-
dents.
Automobile enthusiasts will be in
terested in an attachment designed
by Washington man whereby mo-
tor cars can be easily transformed
into sleighs. Automobiles cannot be
depended upon to travel over roads
covered with deep snow or an icy
surface, and this exhilarating sport
must be forSaken in winter, at the
time of the year when it would be
most appreciated. The novelty of
such an auto sleigh will appeal to
many. Runners are attached to the
front and rear wheels. An auxiliary
wheel which assists in propelling the
vehicle is placed in front of the rear
wheels. Wound around the latter
and the auxiliary wheel is toothed
chain, the purpose of which is to
grip the icy surface of the road and
force the vehicle onward. Any auto
can be equipped with these attach
ments, which are not made part oil
! the permanent motor car.

THE complaining witness in a case
to recover stolen chickens, testified
in Portland Justices court, lately,
that he could identify any fowl with
which he was acquainted by its
face" which he claimed differed as
do the faces of human beings. 1t is
hardly possible that this occult pow
er can extend any farther than with
the horse, and that refers solely to
settlement of questions of possible
age. The neck of the chicken, by
application Of an AK, is regarded as
more certain and expeditions way
of settling longevity of the domestic
fowl.

The Flag in the Navy.

We are fond of singing about Oul
flag and cheering it and making
speeches about it. but we very few OF
us realize now important a factor il
is in the navy. Each ship carries
something like 250 flags. About one.
half of the lot is composed of the
foreign flags, incased in paper bags
The name of the country is stencilcd
on the bottom The remainder in
clude the flags for ordinary use. the
signal set, the international code,
etc. The pile of different flags, the
regulation number for ships in the
service, costs $500.
The operatives engaged in making
the flags enjoy their work. and enter
into it with more interest than is
usually displayed by men and women
engaged in an occupation of this
sort. But few very large flags are
turned out in the establishment, the
demand being almost wholly for the
sizes used on battleships and fortifi-
cations. The United States naval
flagmaking establishment in the Bu-
reau Equipment Building. at the
Brooklyn Navy Yard, is one of the
busiest departments in the place.
A regular cause of this activity is
due to the adding of the additional
star for a new State to the national
flag This neceSsitates an entirely
new arrangement of the stars, as
well as the manufacture of thousands
OF the new ensigns, which every
American vessel will have to carry.
as well as all army posts and other
places where the national cOlOrs are
flown. 1t has happened, in the past,
when Congress was making history
fast, that new stars were added be-
fore the workers had finished making
flags of the last previous design. In
some instances, where a ship re-
turned from a long cruise to get its
new flags, her commander would find
that the design had changed again
before he had had the opportunity of
flying his new emblem.
