Her employer seemed strangely In

Sally under the care OF the abiest
musical instructor In the city.
"Heredity doesn't explain some
things" remarked her music teacher

and became the highest-paid soprano.
Finally, the great singer gave opera
patrons In New York new glimpse
OF a superb emotional soprano adapt

was noticed that her exquisitely train
ed voice was remarkable for its umbre
and purity OF tone. There was flexible
beauty and expressive softness which
made It's possessor the idol OF audi
ences everywhere. The prima donna
was not surpassed by any living artist.
Her warm, spirited delivery found a
ready response In every audience
which greeted her. In the art OF
vocalism the great singer expressed
every shade OF emotion.

vided herself with masks and cos
tunes to represent the great artists
OF the past. One night as the pro-
gram continued, those In the audience
heard and saw again the living dead.
Then the artist donned a mask to rep

haunted her since childhood. She ad-

never known the street girl who once

RALPH AND ROVER

Ralph started out one morning TO
go fishing. He was going to spend
all day In the woods. He went OF
whistling with his rod over his
shoulder and his lunch basket In
hand.
When Rover saw him, he started ON
a run. He hadn't been invited. but
then Rover always went where Ralph
did.
They both had such a pleasant
morning. Rover chased rabbits and
squirrels, and Ralph padded around
In the brook and fshed.
When the sun was high, Ralph took
out his lunch and ate 1t. Rover sat
near him and watched every mouth

ate and ate until everything was gone.
He hadn't given even a scrap TO poor
Rover. The afternoon wasn't nearly
so pleasant as the morning had been.
Rover was too hungry TO enjoy him.

He was trying TO see how near the
pits he could go without falling in

was no one working there that day
and, call as loudly as he might, he
could make nobody hear.

The first thing that will impress
you when you look at Fig. /, the mode
OF the Antoinette monoplane- is thai
the framework is three-cornered, slop
ing off to a wedge at the tail From
that picture you get an idea how the
frame is put together.
Fig. 8 shows how the wings are
framed up so that the surfaces will
be correctly curved and thus support
more weight.
The wings are made detachable &C
they can be taken Off when carrying
the machine from place to place.
Look at all the drawings and get q
general idea of how the parts are
made, and how they are put together
Fig. 3 Is the plan from which you will
I work, and you will save time IL you
y will sit down with a pencil and ruler
/ and copy Il on a large sheet of paper
according to the dimensions given IN
the drawing. Fig. 3. Then, when work
ing, you can lay your work right onto
the drawing to be sure that 1t Is right
and 80 save unnecessary measuring
At the same time you will get bet
ter idea of how the machine will III
together.
When you have made this drawing
cut out the three long sticks for the
framework. and a number OF smaller
ones for bracing.
Cut these down by holding the
plane upside down In the left hand
while you draw the wood over the
edge.
Get the long sticks down to little
less than an eighth OF an inch square
and the brace sticks smaller yet Tie
up the frame as in Fig. 3, the front
end being three-cornered, each side Of
the triangle measuring an inch and Q
half, while the back end is straight
stick as at U-E, in the drawing. The
two top sticks come together where
they tie TO NE, but the bottom stick
I'D, ties to It alone an inch and hall
lower down.
