"Oh, | guess not" laughed Orme.
"He touched his spine, that was all.
The car stopped. The spectacled

got off by way of the front platform.
Would Maku also take the elevated?
If he did, unless he also got off the
front platform, Orme would have to
act quickly to keep out of sight,
But Maku made no move He had
returned to his former position, and
only the trace of an elusive smile on
his lips showed that he had not for

just taken part. Meantime Orme had
maintained his partial concealment,
and though Maku had tcrned his head
when ne went to the conductors help,
he had not appeared to glance toward
the back platform.
The conductor rang the bell, and
the car started forward again with its

Women In Germany.

Women in this country do not reA

their sex here from what is exacted Of
them abroad. In Germany more and

more truth than poetry in the old say
ing that much of the continental farm.
ing depends upon hitching a woman
and COW to a plow. Fifteen years
ago there were 3,75O,0OO women en-
gagged in agricultural labor; in a
dozen years their numbers had in.

HOME MAKING WOMAN'S ART
She Can Add to Husbands Comfort
by Having the House Attractive
and HospitabIe.

The birds find sources of eXultatlon
in the building Of their nests, and you
can discover that they are house fur
nishing by the joy of their songs. 1t
is the natural instinct of love and life
to make a place to dwell in. To the
woman who can devise a beautiful
gown, the arrangement and decoration
of a room is the expansion and ten
fold higher use Of her art. To the
woman who would endear herself to
her husband, a guarantee might be Of
fered that if she can keep within the
limit of his means and yet make for
him a lovely, comfortable, appropriate
abiding place, in which he has room
for the development of his own tastes
and opportunity to bring about him
his friends in hospitable fashion, she
will have endeared herself ineXpress-
IDLY to him and increased his pride in
her tenfold. Let the good order and
beauty and contrivances for his indi-
vidual comfort be sufficient to make
his friends envious, and ready to say
THAT his uOluo lCIhpIS IuChl " MAJ -
and the wife becomes lovely in his
eyes, in a far more flattering way than
because she is pretty and well dressed.
To become the source of a husbands
comfort and rest Is to have placed
yourself beyond the fear of losing your
complexion or ceasing to be his ideal
of pretty girl. It is also to rise
from the position of dear pet to =
useful, important partner, without
whose clever brains and wise direc-
ton his life would cease to be suo
cess.
Home-making is not easy work, but
the married. woman who sets aside her
kingdom for lack of courage and ener-
gy to rule it, is but disinherited prin-
cess who has lost the greatest joy Of
life when she abdicated her throne.

LUMETER A NEW INSTRUMENT
Device Made BY British Opticians to
Measure the Surface Brightness OF
Illuminated Objects.

The "lumeter" is an instrument de-
signed by J. S. Dow and V. H. Mackin-
ney, British opticians, to measure the
surface of brightness Of illuminated
objects, and it gives a, simple means
of studying the distribution of Lighting
The Illuminated object under test is
viewed through an aperture in an IL
Illuminated screen, which is kept at uni
form brightness by suitaDiy-placed
small glow lamp. The relative brill
liancy of the observed surface and the
screen can be adjusted until they ap-
pear equal, and graduated scale then
indicates the surface brightness of the
standard Illuminated screen. Trials OF
the instrument in classrooms, work
rooms, etc, have shown surprising va
riations in the lighting of interiors.
In a technical college classroom 20 by
80 feet in size, with large windows on
the street side, the illumination of the
best lighted desk at five o'clock on a
September day was ten foot-candles,
while that of the poorest seat was only
O.6 foot-candle, and the illumination of
the blackboard varied from five foot
candles, at one end to 0.5 at the other.
In one of London's underground tubes
the horizontal illumination was IL to
1.3 foot-candles with the train at rest,
falling to or to 90 foot-candles on en-
tering the tunnel.
