And to whom, from mother Eve to this day, has
been intrusted the task of teaching the young Is it
possible that two-hrds of the human race from the
dawn of civilization, could have nstilled into children
the honor and truth which they themselves did not
obey?
No matter what may have been said or written
about women not telling the truth, the fact still re-
mains that it is at the mothers knee that children
learn truth and receive their highest ideals Of honesty
and of life.

Does anybody in any large city ever

PRINT WITHOUT INK
EngIishman Makes Remarkable
 Discovery by Accident.
By Means of Electricity Inventor Can Print Newspaper in All Hues of the Rainbow With One
 Contact.

London--About two years ago a fu- Iitive paragraph drifting in the Eng fish press had for it's subject a possi- ble printing without ink"
 Just now a semi-technical London publication has succeeded in running down the author of the discovery and from him 1t has the story of the ex- pertinent up to date. The man Is Ce- ell Bembridge, London address not given.
 It was an accidental lead which Mir Bembridge picked up in his discovery of inkless printing. It was about 12 years ago that, working in his labora- tory with an electric battery, he had spread a sheet of tin on the table and on the tin plate he had laid a piece of moist paper. The bare ends of the copper wires from his battery trailed over this sheet of wet paper which had stuck fast to the plate of tin.
 His experiment originally was to dis action in connection with gold and for the purpose of the experiment he reached into his pocket for gold coin As he brought a handful of miscellane- ous coins from his pocket. a gold piece slipped through his fingers, roll ed upon the table and in catching at the coin, he clamped the sovereign upon one of the connecting battery wires and in firm contact with the moist paper. In the effort at stop ping the coin. too, the other wire was pushed over until 1t lay in con- tact with the sheet of tin. Then came the accidental discovery.
 He reached for the coin and in pick Ing 1t up was surprised to find upon

Whx tha Women Elx


 A man observer has found out why Washington society women are taking such an active interest in aviation. Many have delved deeply into the lore of aeronautics and several of the more daring even have been tempted aloft The reason Is because the feminine students of flying wish to wear the strihngly becoming costume which Gladys Hinckley has devised for her self and her sisters who soar Miss Hinckley, when she practices flights from the Speedway, is dressed in a gown of pale lavender corduroy, fitted tightly. The waist, also of corduroy, is made with what are known as peasant sleeves," and has a Dutch neck. The hat is an effective as 1t is novel, but after all, it is the boots which take the eye of the women and make them desire to play at aero blaming, even if they never get of the ground. The boots are of soft tan leather, and lace to the knee. The skirt Is short enough so the footgear Is by no means hidden. Many of the aviation enthusiasts are planning to have machines sent to their summer homes, and in the fall it is intended to have a meet in which debutantes and matrons will compete.

IneIdents of census rakIna.

Many curious incidents cropped up at the taking of the British census a few days ago. An old woman at North wich had to visit the churchyard to ascertain how many of her children had died; the number was four: q have to keep him-I am the head of the family" pleaded a wife in Kings ton-on-the-Thames, but the enumerat- or entered the husband first. A fam fly of seventeen sons and daughters, required a second form at Barnton, Northwich, as the ordinary schedule has only fifteen spaces. Resenting the persistence of a census officer, who had to knock three times before he could get reply, a Hoxton man struck the enumerator. badly bruising one of his eyes; while a proud father in Ec- clesall who had baby few hours old calmly explained on the census form that the baby was single and not married.

EASY TO MAKE DRAIN TILES
Work Is Simple and Outfit Costs but S6o or Less-cement Is as
 Good as Clay.

Make your own drain tiles. The work is simple and can be done in the spring or on rainy days. Cement they are made right
 The outfit needed to make these tiles consists of a machine in which the molds are placed when filled, and the molds. It can be bought for $35 to $60. The machine can be run by hand or by engine If turned by hand, about 500 tiles day are made, but with an engine this can be in- creased to 1900.
 After filling the molds with flexible casing put 1t into the machine. Then take enough cement for a tile and pack 1t firmly against the easing by turning the packer through it. The mold is then opened and the tile, still supported by the casing. is taken out. After the cement has become quite hard the casing can be taken oil and used again.
 Cement tiles become harder and stronger with age, while the clay tile weakens. Cement ones have the ad- vantage also of not being drawn out of shape by burning.
 The proportion of sand and cement to use is about three to one. The sand used should be clean and as an gular as 1t is possible to get. Crushed rock cannot be used to any advantage in the smaller tiles. Slow-setting ce- ment is stronger than the quick setting variety.
 The size of tiles depends upon the amount of water to be carried. For most places the lateral drains should be of three or four-inch tiles. Eight sided tiles are laid much easier than round ones, and cost little more.

PASSING OF ST. AGNES LIGHT
Famous Beacon on British Coast Is to Be Replaced After Centuries
 of Service.

One of the oldest and most famous lighthouses in the world is to disap- pear. According to an official Notice to Mariners" issued by Trinity house, the St. Agnes light. Scilly, Is to be- replaced by a light on Peninnis head, St. Mary. For centuries 1t has gladdened the eyes of passengers from the other side of the Atlantic or has blinked a parting to emigrants.
 It stands inland on the highest ground in the island of St. Agnes and the first light was lit on the spot as long ago as 1880. Coal was the only illuminant and the light was often al lowed to go out. But in 1790 oil lamps and refectors were installed and flashes of the present one-minute re- volving light can be seen at distance of 30 miles.
 Probably one of the chief motives which prompted the placing of a guid- ing light on the island was the repu- tation which St. Agnes bore for wreck ing t9the old days. Many a ship was luredson the rocks by false lights and the tradition was preserved among seamen for many years afterward
 It is stated that almost within living memory a crew who were shipwrecked on the island kept their would-be res cuers at bay with stones. They feared that they would be massacred and could be approached only when they dropped helpless from hunger and ex- haustion.
 The most famous of many wrecks of the Scillies occurred in Port Hel- lick bay near the site of the new St. Mary's light. It was here that Admi- ral Sir Cloudesley Shovel with four men of war and many hundreds of sailors was lost in 1707 while return ing from the capture of Gibraltar. It Is stated that sailor warned the ad miral, to whom there Is a much abused monument in Westminster abbey, of his danger and that he was promptly hanged at the yardarm for insubordi- nation. On another occasion a ship turned turtle and was driven into the bay. Sounds were heard from the up turned hull and when an opening was cut in the hull a number of the crew were found alive within.
 The new light will be semi-watched and will be exhibited from a circular iron tower which will be painted white and will be 45 feet in height

~BoBBIEs" WILL HAVE DOGS
Individual Officers, Travelling Certain London Beats, to Be Allowed
 Canine Protection.

London.-In the future London DO Hcemen in the outlying and suburban districts of the city are to be accom- panied by dogs, if they so desire.
 Hitherto individual officers have been granted permission to take their own dogs with them on making ap- plication, in the same way as permis- sion is granted in suitable cases fol them to carry sticks or revolvers. This practice will now be extended, having been tried as an experiment and found successful. It is not pro- posed to organize a system of dogs owned by the police, but the men will be allowed to take their own dogs though they will have to satisfy their superior officers that the circumstan- ces warrant the application.
 There will be no one type used. and in any case the police authorities will not control the selection, but simply watch the experiment. The dogs will doubtless be used for the double pur- pose of protecting the police officers If attacked and holding a man whom he may desire to arrest
 The advantage of using dogs which are the personal property of the off cers, is that they will probably be more obedient and docile than dogs taken from a general police kennel.

RIGHT WAY TO STACK GRAIN
When Five or Six Feet High Reverse Order and Work From Center
 to Outside.
CRv w. H. uNpERwoopl

To stack wheat or other bundle grain so the stack will not take water commence the stack or rick any way desired, but when the stack is built to a height of five or six feet just re- verse the usual way of stacking and work from the center to the outside instead of from the outside to the center.
 When beginning at the center to work out lay down two or three bun dies so as to keep the center the highest with a good slant to the outer edge.
 If at any time the outer edge gets too high, stop before getting there and go back to the center and come out again.
 Keep the center high and the outer edge low. This is about the same as one shock on top of another, only a little more slant to the bundles.
 There is no slip nor slide. It is an easy and fast way to stack and will sure keep the stack dry. It is not quite as good as a barn, but it is right next to it. It does not re- quire sn expert. Almost any four teen-year-old boy can stack this way.
 It is not so easy to make mistake as in the usual way, but if stacking in the usual way and the stack should commence to slip or slide, just go to the center and work out and see how quickly 1t can be stopped. or i'll the middle of the stack from the ground up to the top and see how easy 1t is to keep the middle solid.
 Mix up the stacking a little and work from the center part of the time and you will soon find out the best way to stack.

the moist paper an absolutely clear imprint of the coin in a brownish black He describes the print as even clearer than if he had linked the coin and applied the linked surface to the paper by careful pressure.
 Following his questionings he pro cured a few linotype lines of print, assembled them, and placed the type, face down, on a like sheet of moist paper resting upon a like sheet of tin. When the battery wires were connect ed with the type metal and with the tin sheet and current applied, every letter showed from-the type lines with out blur or blemish.
 Taking a sheet of zinc in lieu of the tin, again the electrical influences brought the same general effect, though the crudest of hand methods were used in applying the type to the paper. Dry. paper was not affected; moisture was required for the proper conductivity
 After proving to his satisfaction that, regardless of the pressure upon the paper in contact, the clearness of the lettering was satisfactory, MT. Brembridge sought to discover a chemical moistener for the paper which would give the jet black effect of ordinary printers ink and at the same time preserve the whiteness of the paper.
 The great trouble was to secure per manency in the electrical imprint.
 For ten years Mir. Bembridge wrest- led with the solution of his problem. Today he announces that everything is accomplished and proved, not only in the matter of jet black print with out ink, but asserts that he is able to print newspaper in all hues of the rainbow and with the one contact.
 As explained by Mir Bembridge, his long searchings into chemical com binations for producing jet black prints led him on into electro-pigmen- tary combinations producible by oxi- dizing processes. More than all of this, however, the assertion is made that in treating the white paper some of the cheapest of chemical elements serve the purpose admirably and at a cost far below that of the costly print CTS inks.
 As for the presses for turning out the newspaper, they are greatly sim plifed, the ink troughs and rollers disappearing altogether. The stereo- type plate is used and in position on the press Is thoroughly insulated be- low, while the roller surface which guides the moist paper also is insu- lated. The paper rollers are connect ed with the positive magnetic pole, while the stereotype plate is linked with the negative and from the electric power that runs the press the cleo tro-chemical action is set up. making the imprint as desired upon the pa per.

SKULL WAS TRANSPARENT
Murder Charge In Philadelphia court-BraIn Was Normal.

Philadelphia.-If 1t hadn't been for the discovery that Joseph c. Quinn had a skull as fragile as an egg shell. Peter Fox, Jr., might have been held by Coroner Ford for infiicting the in- juries which caused Quinn's death.
 When the coroner learned Quinn's skull was so thin that large print could be read through it when it was held to the light he discharged Fox on the ground that Quinn's death was traceable to the abnormality.
 Quinn was muscular and athletic. He went to poolroom at Island road and Woodlawn avenue and made a disturbance. Fox, the proprietor, tried to quiet him. As Quinn became increasingly ugly Fox struck him It was a blow that would have done little or no harm to an ordinary man. but Quinn dropped to the floor.
 Doctor Wadsworth, who performed the autopsy, testihed Quinn's skull would bend under the pressure of his fingers. The mans brain, he added, was normal.

There are many things to be said In favor of the separator; so many in fact that a mere mention of them all would require much time and space. Here are a few:
 No cream left in the skim milk.
 Saves two or three landings of the milk.
 The pigs and calves get sweet warm skim milk at its highest feed value.
 Butter keeps sweeter and frmer in warm weather when made of separator cream.
 It saves time, room, labor, water ice, pans and cans without number, also hauling and freight charges.
 With five or more cows a hand cream separator will pay for itself the first year of its use.
