AVIATORS SEEK SAFETY.
Toll of Death in Air Has Caused Air
 men to Become Careful.

Aviators are turning their attention toward the elimination of serious ac- cidents in their flights. and the world will rejoice when they have succeeded in doing away entirely with fatalities. The toll of death has been 2 large one.
 At first the fall of a birdman to destructiOn gave thrill of horror and had in it something of the grim and terrible pleasure of picturesque tragedy For Barney Oldfield was not entirely wrong when a year ago he accused an enormous thrOng of spectators at the Speedway races Of deriving pleasure from accidents.
 But to put it brutally, the world has had a satiety of blood spilled by the agency of the aerOplane, and the fall of an aviator now has in it the awful painfulness of the wreck of a railroad train. The romance of death in an aircraft is disappearing, reveal ing the sickening reality of it.
 Consequently, all humanity will note with pleasure the gradual decline 1T the aeroplane death rate, and vii take more and a vast deal healthier pleasure in the triumphs of the avia' tors than in their spectacular fail res.-Indianapolis star.

PUBLIC CONTROL
 OF THE RAILROADS
The change That has Come About
 Within Few Years

A remarkable evolution has taken
 place in the last few years with the
 railroads of this country. Methods
 used 20 years ago to get business for
 the railroads cannot be used today.
 With the control or supervision of
 the public over the affairs of the
 railroads, has come serious situa-
 tion in the relation of money invested
 in the railroad business. The public
 has assumed control and jurisdiction
 over the railroads without assuming
 in any sense the responsibility for
 loss or without any effort to ac- quaint the railroad managers how to
 get the money to meet the loss.
 It is absolutely necessary that some condition obtain that will enable the
 railroads to get necessary money All investments are dependent upon the
 ability of the people in control to get. money into these investments. Money has much courage. It will take chances of losing interest and of being lost altogether, providing it has a fair show of being returned with something added. Everybody must have the help of investments in his constructive work, whether in railroads or in other lines.
 It is difficult to find investments that make good returns. Railroads seeking investors must compete with other investments which do not bear the apparent chance of losing which railroads have with the present ten dency of the public against them. There must be some way of working out, either by guarantee or otherwise, some plan by which investors in railroad stocks will receive more than 6 per cent. This is one phase of the railroad situation which is not at all understood by the public. If the public understood the situation, it would be different. The general public seems to think that all the railroads have to do is to sell bonds, but they forget that the railroads mus sell these bonds in competition with investments that offer greater returns. by reason of the fact that other Investments have not the han dcap imposed against the railroads | by adverse state and national legiS- | latiOn. In other words, in future, | the railroads are expected to take more chances of losing money, and | have only the prospect of having the public secure control or dictate what the maximum return on the invest ment shall be. The condition is now serious. but will be more so unless 1 the railroads are given something
 like an equal opportunity with other ] lines of business in the business world

When vour feet are so tired they feel like stumps, when they ache so that they hurt way up to your heart when you shamble your feet along and it seems as though all the misery you ever had has settled in your feet look at the happy TIZ man in the picture.
 You can be happy-footed just the same. If you have corns and Dunions that everybody seems to step on, just think of this happy TIE man. He had corns and bunions, too. This man used TIZ and now he has no more tender, raw, chaffed- blistered swollen, tired, smelly feet, corns callouseS or bunions.

HOW HIGH CAN WE BUILD.

 May Soon Be Overtopped.

Steadily soaring story after story, the Woolworth building has gradually risen into the clouds. Today 1t has overtaken and passed the TOO feet of it's only rival. the Metropolitan tower, and thus it becomes the tallest build ing of all the buildings erected by man.

 Highest of the great buildings that make this city architectually unique it is so placed, so planned, and sc built as to seem at once the com manding feature of the prospect-the eliminating grace of magnificent group and final expression of Amer ica's genius in the construction of great business buildings.
 Is it final? Did we not think that of each of the great buildings as they scared SkyWard? How long has the Metropolitan tower been supreme, the Singer buildings. the Park Row build ing. or any of the many that have reigned since the Tribune building, the pioneer of all tall buildings, was fin ished in 1875?
 Architects, engineers and builders have realized that the only way to give a greater earning capacity to the ever increasing value of the land in the downtown business section is to build vertically into the air. where there are no barriers except of a structural or operative nature.
 To meet the ever increasing de- mand of the lofty structures the en- tire building world has been revolu-

THE MAKING OF A NAVAJO BLANKET

Among all tribes where primitive form spinning is retained the work is long and tedious.
 second step in the spinning is the unwind ing twisting of the loose strand, which leaves it in almost hopeless of kinks and snars, but in the third step these all strengthened out when the skein is returned to the dgtaff. 1t has become like fluffy cord than when it lying in heap Many times must the patient squaw wind and unwind stretch and twist. she may put it aside the finished WoOf-Htrand. Even then the spinning has but begun; another lot must be worked in the way and fully than the first, for when the 0f-size is reached the work is only half done. At this point great must be exerted to keep the uni form for it is to be the warp, framework, which the blanket is to be built. Harder and tighter she twists it until long hours of toll, she produces a strong, knky bristing tWine whose little filaments will hold woof-strands a vse- like grip the weaving progresses.
 After the spinning process two small trees, pOles obtained, and to these the banket-sticks tied, usually with native wOol-rope These sticks generally old ones that have been used for years, and the squaWs become attached that when bargain is being made for 8 loom it is very difficult to persuade blanket maker part with this particular part of her outfit. After the oom- sticks adjusted and the loom is placed in wool-cord and through each loop is passed twisted cord which is ends the finished blanket The Warp-strand is next strung from pole to pole across the rectangular space, the loop at either end passing through a twist of the cord already mentioned which lies along the inner side of the pole. When enough warp has been strung twisted Wool-cord is stretched the cord at either side, and the loom is then raised to perpendicular position up the hogan.

The farmer with the carpet bag and the

in the imaginatons OF the near-artists
who make alleged funny pictures.
What has become OF him? A reporter
started out the other day to try and
find out. He discovered that the same
old farmer exists yet. but in ever thin
ming ranks. and always without the car
pet bag and nearly always without the
whiskers. The average farmer that

The carpet bag in its day was a gor-

years ago. when the carpet bag was In
its prime, nearly all umbrellas had ribs
OF springy whalebone. Those were the
prosperous days of the whaling fleet oui
Of New Bedford and other New England
seaponts, and the bulk OF whalebone
brought from the arctic seas went to the
umbrella makers. The ribs OF worn out
umbrellas were great for making Indian
bows. and in those days the boys used
them for that purpose.
The whaling industry declined when coal
oil took the place Of whale oil in the
lamps OF this country and when the sup
ply Of whalebone decreased the umbrella
makers had to look around for some
thing to take its place. For many years
they used cane, which was stained black

in turn, was superseded by the steel ribs
that are used today.
