Invent Varnish That Will Satisfy
Piano Manufacturers, and Affiu'

The piano manufacturer was talk
ing. "A fortune of a million dollars,
at least" he said, awaits the man who
can invent a varnish which will re-
spond to changes Of temperature in
exactly the same rate at which wood
responds.
Everybody who eve has made or
owned a highly polished article OF
furniture knows that the surface is
liable to break into small cracks-be-
come finely cracked-and thus its
beauty is lost. This cracking is
caused by the fact that sudden
changes of temperature affect varnish
especially fine piano v%arnish-al-
most instantly, while the wood be-
meath contracts or expands at a diff
ferent rate. This splinters the var
nish, and thus far no manufacturer
has been able to get the best OF the
situation. We are waiting for this en-
tirely possible elastic varnish, which,
when It shall come, will be more vel.

The Tourist on Tour.

Till we have been accustomed to
travelling we have a propensity to
stare at and admire everything-and
to be on the search for novelty, even
in circumstances in which 1t is ridic-
ulous to look for it. / have been upon
the full silly cape to find out things
that | had not found before, as if a
street in Paris could be composed of
anything but houses. or houses formed
Of anything but brick or stone-or
that the people in them, not being
English, would be walking on their
heads. / shall shake off this folly as
fast as l can. and bend my attention
to mark the character and disposition
of the nation. Such views naturally
lead us to catch the little circum-
stances which sometimes express
them; not an easy task, but subject
to many errors.-Arthur Young,

and examined it on all sides. There
were initials upon it, a monogram. She
rubbed it clean with her hands and
studied it carefully-"J. R. C" The
book and the box had belonged to the
same person, John Revell Charnock.

the cave further. There was abso-

indeed, than she might have imagined
if she had thought about it, she laid
the book and box down upon the ledge
and went out again. She walked along
the sands until she came to the place
where she had landed the day be-

see the wreck of her boat, partly on
the barrier reef and partly in the
water. 1t would have been no trick
for her to swim to it in the stiffness,
yet she hesitated to attempt it. Ger

of some way to restrain him, keep him
away, but nothing occurred to her. In
vention was paralyzed by the situation
in which she found herself.
Desperately bidding him stay where
he was. she went back to the cave.
She was face to face with a crisis
which had to be met. Indeed, the
question of clothes was becoming a
e serious one with her and she
knew she should have to decide upon
some course of action Immediately.
For the present, she took off her gar
, ments, hoping and praying in a shivel
of dread and anxiety, that he would
remain where she had left him, which
indeed proved the fact. She laid aside
all that she had worn except the
blouse and skirt, including her sadly
worn shoes and stockings. Thus light

"Nor and encouraging him with Yes"
until he had some idea of those words
also. 1t was a relief to her to get
them firmly fixed in his mind, for they
provided him with alternatives to the
man and woman words on which he
harped.
After a while they started around
the island. 1t was perhaps six or
eight miles in circumference. There
was a sand beach everywhere, except
in one place where the rocks came
sheer down to the shore. From what
she could tell by an inspection of the
surface there was an underwater en-
trance to some cave In the rocks
which some day might be worth ex-
ploring.
On the other side of the island from
the cave, which was already denomi-
mated home in her mind, she came
across the remains of a ships boat
deep bedded in the sand. The boat
had been perhaps wrecked and broken
on the barrier reef, OIL possibly it had
sailed through the entrance near at

she had seen-and had been hurled
