viii Finch and the Belgian Lapdog
@By Ellis Darker BuHeE1

BY PETER. NEWELL

VIII Finch gives notice to every
body In Betzville that the party that
stole his Belgian lGp-dog is known to
him, and that unless the dog is re-
turned before next Wednesday noon
he will offer $5 reward for any infor-
nation leading to the identification Of
the thief.
VIII is all broken up over the loss
of the dog. He paid dollar for it
to passing tramp who swore he had
stolen the pup, or he couldn't AFFORD
to sell 1t for the price. The tramp
said the pup was a Belgian lap-dog.
and to prove 1t offered to let VIII see
1t lap up milk, II VIII would furnish
the milk. He said he had just re-
turned from pedestrian tour Of Mex
leo. passing through Belgium on his
way to Betzville. VIII sort OF sug-
gested that lap-dog wasn't one that
laps, but one that is small enough to
sit in a lap, and the tramp fell right
in with the notion. He told VIII that
was what made the Belgian lap-dogs
so valuable, they were both kinds Of

the French minister of the marine,
M. Alfred Picard. has been making
off the coast of Morocco. Capt. Sa-
conney has been working for months
past to develop n machine that would
produce clear and detailed view of
a country, its forts, encampments and
general outlines. The results have
gone beyond all expectations. A pho
tograph of Casa Blanca has been
taken by this wonderful camera at an
altitude of 400 yards and three miles
from shore.
In structure this machine resem-
bles an enormous box kite. To 1t IS
attached cable by which the appar-
atus can be made to ascend or de-
scend at the will of the operator.
When the desired height is attained
the aim can be accurately taken and
the snap worked from below. The
whole Photographic outfit is so simple
that it can be placed on the deck of
a boat, and worked at sea with as
satisfactory results as from the land.
The importance of these pictorial
documents in time of war is obvious.
BY the aid of these aerial photographs
the enemy can fix with precision the
exact disposition of the opposing
forces. while their entertainments and
forts no longer will be safeguard.
