PIGEONS, A1R-sAcKs

The air-sacks of the pigeon, ssys Bruno
Miller, constitute system of interspaces,
the value Of which lies at their emptiness;
that is, the absence of weight and resist
ance. Flying is possible only to = body
of high mechanical eficieFcy, and We
attain this with machines divested 81 all
superHuous material. just so lbe original
reptiles, which by evolution became
birds, were diyested Of superadous ma
teriaI. and the body spaces thus obtained
were filed With air.sacks. The body
wall, adapting itself to the mechauical re-
quirements, became q hollow cylinder
serving as a support for the organs Of
movement. the mobility of whose parts
was assured by the surrounding air-sacka
The air.cavities in the bones Of birds are

MEXICAN HOTELS

"I'm glad to be back in the land of the
latchkey," said mining engineer who
had been in Mexico for the past year.
I'm France, Spain, Italy and throughout
Latin America there is a servant in every
house and hotel whose business it is to
open the door. In Mexico you would
think, being SO near this country, that
the American latchkey would be common.
But even insthe finest hotels in the capi-
tai the big doors are closed at II o'clock,
and to gain admittance after that hour
you hare to pound on them with the
great knockers that hang outside. Alter
Eve minutes you hear sleepy grunt with
in, then some mutterings and the Spanish
word which means I'm coming. Finally
the small door in the center Of the big
one will be unbarFed, and you step inside.
Then if you don't want to sleep in the
park The next night you are kept out late
you give the 'portero, as the keeper Of
tie gate is called, piece Of silver. Be-
tween IL and midnight the fee is 10
cents. From on uutil morning the
gratuity, regulated by custom. steadily
increases. Between and it is from 256
to 40 cents, and alter 8 it is half a dollar.
MANY a night have been awakened
by the poanding Of the knockers in the
neighborhood ol my hotel. I timed one
man for ten minutes before I fell asleep.
Probably he had neglected to fee the
'portero' or else the keeper of the gate
was drunk, as be frequently Is. These
'porteros' usually sleep curled up in
blankets just inside the door on the stones
with which every interior courtyard and
is paved, and ali Of them have
colds. Yet il is position much sought
after, and the gatekeeper ranks highest
among the servants

For crowded cars I can't abide,

Because We dare not say with seiies
We go without to save expense.

Keeling Lead In Pa.sr

Here is.an interesting little sxssrIment
for you to try. Take small leaden
bullet or buckshot and wrap it tightly in
a single thickness of tissue paper. Then
bold with your fingers the bullet over the
flame of candle, or even over lighted
match-iust far enough away not to burn
the paper-and after few moments you
will find that the lead has melted without
scorching the paper. Il is possible to
boil water in a-paper sack in the same
way, as the paper will not burn so long
as it is wet inside. The water is such a
good conductor of heat that il keeps the
temperature Of the paper below the barn.

Why Those Empty Pews?

Cedar Rapids Republican: A pop
uIar magazine has started 2 discus
sion over the question. Why the empty
pevs2 In other words. Why do people
not go 10 church nowadays2 Many
answers hare been given 10 this ques-
ton. All of them contain some truth
ard make some explanation.
But, in our opinion, the fault is not
with the preachers. primarily. 1t is
rot With the people, either. 1t is in
The conditions that surround life in
these days.
First of all, people do not go to
the church as they used 10 go to
church because they have lost the
personal interest in what is called sal
walton. The fear of hell fire is not
very present one nowadays. Few
people can be made to believe that
there is he'll for them after death.
People no longer believing that the
. way to church is the way TO
! heaven and the escape from hell.
they naturally are careless about
church attendance. This IS especially
true Of the protestant churches in
which the hereafter has been reduced
largely 20 a speculative abstraction.
In the second place. people have
other things 10 think of nowadays
and for that reason they do not &c
to church as they used TO go II
church IN the period Of village life
in the country the church was tht
meeting place. the one point of com
non interest It brought people 10
gether and that is something that the!
enjoy. The secret Of i was the socia
life. Now the social life is ATTAINED
through many other channels.
