Stronger Asroplanes.

Among the leading French firms
most important advances are to be
found In structural details. There are
not any radical changes in design. but
in the matter of strength. finish and
workmanship there is a world of diff
ference between the leading makes
of aeroplanes Of today and those Of
a year ago. An important feature is
the strong tendency shown by some
of the leading makers towards the
use of metal for the framework Of
aeroplanes. The French Wright BIZ
plane. although employing American
spruce for its running gear and main
traverse members. now has steel
tubes for the stanchions separating
the two main planes. The Voisin
brothers have abolished wood entire
ly, with the exception Of the fuselage
receiving the pilots seat, the essen
tial framework being constructed of
steel tubing. Bayard-Clement. in their
little Demoiselle, confine the use of
wood to a portion Of the wings. Rob-
ert Esnault-Pelterie, who has now
produced most pleasing and sue
cessful monoplane. builds 1t entirely
of steel tube. and there is not an inch

TO RETAIN FLAVOR IN MEAT
Escape Of Extraetives May BE Hin
dered by Soaring Surface Of
Meat Quickly.

The amount of the extractives which
Will be brought out into the water
when meat is boiled depends upon the
size of the pieces into which the meat
is cut and on the length of time they
are soaked in cold water before be-
Ing heated. A good way to hinder
the escape Of the fiavoring matter In
to scar the surface of the meat quickly
by heating 1t in fat. or the same end
may be attained by plunging 1t into
boiling water. Such facts are known
to all cooks and have recently been
studied systematically at the Illinois
experiment station in relation to tho
amounts removed and the losses which
may be involved in different methods
Of cookery. Such solubility is taken
advantage Of in making beef tea at
home and in the manufacture OF meat
extract. the extracted material being
finally concentrated by evaporating the
water.

speaking of the tradition which as.

bush, said:
There we're two bushes of this

One of these Gen. Washington named
for his mother. Mary Washington. and
the other for his wife's daughter. Nelly
Custis. Just how the tradition Of the
encacy Of the Nelly Custis" as a love
charm originated l can't say. but 1t is
certainly very old. The negroes here
used to loiter around 1t while court
ing because they believed they would
soon be allowed to marry through its
influence. The superstition Is that any
one who plucks a rose from the bush
and presents 1t to the object Of his or
her affections will be welded within
the year"
A Virginian matron Of the old school
declares that charming Nelly Custis
herself is said to have worn one Of
the white roses In her bosom when her

to her.

Tradition further says that she took
