Gourmet's Dream.

"At present" lamented the gourmet,
"for roast beef in perfection / must
travel to England, for oysters to Mar
settles, for macaroni to Naples, for
chicken to Bresse, for cavaire to Rus
STA and for salmon to Scotland.
Each place has its specially, and
unless eaten on the spot it Is never
so good. Thus a perfect repast is at
present impossible. but when aerial
navigation is developed I promise my
self many a perfect dinner. I will
set off to dine in my aeroplane.
81 begin my meal at Boston with
steamed clans. Ten minutes later
am in New York; where I can, get a
plate of delicious turtle soup. This Is
followed by planked shad In Phila-
delphia and chicken and waffles,
Maryland STYLE in Baltimore. Then
on to Richmond for a course Of vir-
ginia ham and salad.
For my dessert start at top speed
for Florida, where revel in dish of
marvellous fruit--oranges, bananas,
pineapples, etc. Then, the wind being
favorable, I cross over to Cuba for a
perfect cigar, and finish my dinner
at San Paulo with superb cup OF
coffee" e.

Would Keep Girls From STAGE.

Are great artists happy? Emma
Calve, one of the most talented, ad-
mired, and In every way successful
artists the world has ever seen, has
for number of years made a special
ty OF advising girls to get married and
try to make happy homes instead of
studying for the stage. Her latest
statement of her views, which she
says she has held ever since she was
twenty-five, was given to a journalist
In Los Angeles. 20, the girls" she
exclaimed. "the hundreds, the thous-
ands of poor girls! You will write
Just what say7 Then write that but
one woman In a hundred thousand
who tries wins. There is in a million
one Geraldine Farrar, one Emma
Eames, one Schumann-Heink. Do you
grasp what that means? l have seen
them-these girls that come to Paris
to study, to fight their way among
men. When the day comes that
shall teach l shall teach no girl for
the stage. l will teach only the rich
girls who wish to sing for accomplish
ment, for home, for husband-that is
woman's place."-New York Eve

NO HYPOCRISY ABOUT HIM

Making Artificial Diamonds.

The minute artificial diamonds OF
Moissan were produced by causing
the carbon of molten iron to crystal
lie out under great pressure. A
Berlin chemist, DR.. w. Won Bolton,
now uses coal gas, or other gaseous
carbon compound, and on decompos-
ing 1t by the action of mercury vapor
obtains carbon both in the amorphous
form and as diamond dust. BY intro
ducing diamond chip as a nucleus
or mother crystal, it is expected a
diamond growth of appreciable size
can be brought about. In the expert
ment made, the mercury was supplied
by sodium amalgam, which was placed
in long testing tube under a coating
of water-glass solution and amorphous
diamond dust, and the tube was kept
at 100 degrees c., while slow cur
rent Of coal gas was passed through
for one month. The brilliant crystals
formed, too small for analysis, burned
In oxygen Ike diamonds.

Ship Barnacles.

One of the worst nuisances that
sailors have to put up with Is bar
nacles. Barnacles abound In almost
all seas, attaching themselves in
great numbers to logs Of wood, the
bottoms of ships and other floating
materials.
The common or ship barnacle is a
species of shellfish It is distin-
guished by long, flexible stalk that
is provided with muscles by means Of
which the creature can elongate or
contract itself at will. Upon the end
Of the stalk there are five shelly
valves, the principal organs OF the ami
NAL being closed within. These valves
open and close to admit of the bar
nacle spreading out and drawing back
its net, an apparatus by which 1t OBJ
tains food.
Ship barnacles congregate in such
numbers on ships that the latter's
sailing powers are seriously impaired.
The creatures grow rapidly, at the
same time undergoing such wonderful
Transformation that they are objects
Of interesting study.

FLIGHT TO THE MOON
ASTRONOMERS DOES NOT THINK
THE FEAT IMPOSSIBLE.
BY the Use Of Electrical Force II Can
Be Done, and Doubtless VIII, Ac-
cording to Professor Gar.
rett p, Servlss. s..

On the deck Of La Provence, at the
beginning of an old-fashioned ocean
Journey for a summer In France, Gar
rett P. Serviss, the we'll known as
tronomer, talked seriously of an air
ship service to the moon which he
believes the future has In store for
man.
II begin to think seriously. but not
too seriously, now that we have
achieved the navigation of the afr by
mechanical means, that there only re-
mains the necessity of providing air
to exist upon and things to eat for
man, to go to the moon," he said.
"But we have got to have a new
motive force. Electrical propulsion
begins to hint what that force will be
when men fly from planet to planet.
You understand We have got to over
come gravity and there are only two
forces which overcome gravity under
certain conditions-pressure of light
and electricity.
$50 say that the first flying ma
chine to the moon will be based on
the principle of the pith ball that
flies away from the conductor Of an
electrical machine. When this has
been accomplished there only remains
to be done what modern chemistry
certainly can achieve; that is, to fill
strong vessel, spherical vessel, with
enough air and food to sustain man
during the fight. This is not so ride
ulous as 1t may seem, and the modern
achievement of flying is step In that
direction" 49,. .
Incidentally Prof. Serviss does not
believe there are any inhabitants on
Mars. my friend Lowell" he said,
doesn't allow for the fact that Mars
Is too small to retain an atmosphere.
Human beings could not remain on
Mars because there probably Is not
enough oxygen and nitrogen on that
planet. The gravitative force is too
small to retain an atmosphere. The
atmosphere flies away. Those lines
called canals are no doubt natural
phenomenon, Notwithstanding the fact
that they look artificial. Their ex-
Istence is due to the fact that Mars
is a very fat planet. There are no
mountains there, and waters spread
out in every direction and form con-
Meeting lines. The drainage system
runs in every direction and gives that
checkered appearance of criss-cross-
ing canals"

Money In Beaver PeIts.

According to the Ottawa Citizen, the
recent sale Of furs at the Parliament
building realized s5,354.05 for the prov
ince. The pelts were taken from ami
mails trapped in Algonquin park. under
the direction of the minister of lands,
forests and mines.
There were 4S0 beaver skins, which
We're caught under special order, and
realized s4,09050; SO mink, fisher, IL
rpsrten, II muskrat, IL otter and s
ermine. In addition, % pounds of caso-
reum were sold. This Is a secretion
found in the beaver and Is used in
making perfumes and for medicinal
purposes.
The revenues Of Algonquin park have
also been augmented during the past
year by the sale of live beavers TO
several geological societies. Animals
have been shipped to New York, Phil
adelDhia and London, England.

studylno Effect Of Exerols.

A serious attempt to investigate
what may be called the hygiene of
sport is about to be made in Berlin.
To carry out the objects in view a
sport laboratory is to be established
and placed under the charge of the
Charlottenburg municipal authorities.
The idea had Its origin In a depart
ment of the hygiene exhibition held
recently at Dresden, In which every
thing that could throw light on the
influence of sports and gymnastic ex-
ercises on the human organism was
brought together. Special attention
was paid to bodily measurements
arising under different conditions and
from different muscular exercises, and
particular observation was directed to
the good and harmful effects of the
several sports and gymnastics on the
human body and its members. One
of the chief objects of the new labora-
tory will be the observation of all that
possibly affects school children in re-
spect Of food and physical exercises.

THEIR PERILoUS TRIP
TORIES SUFFERED HARDSHIPS
IN SEEKING NEW HOME.
Flight From New York Made lmpera-
tive After the Success Of the Rev.
oIutlon, Gale Drove Them
Into Danger.

After the revolution was over and
the victorious patriots made life a
burden to the Tories. Even the chill
dren tainted and stoned them when
they yentured on the streets. So
lot of them held meeting and de-
cided to seek some colony Of the
kings where they could live In peace.
With this purpose in view, they
bought ship, put all their household
goods on board and sailed away, 800
souls In all. ..N
The captains experience In naviga-
ton had been confined to coastwise
trips as mate of fishing schooner, and
he lost his reckoning in a thick fog
which they ran into a fortnight from
New York. The fog lifted before
roaring gale which drove the vessel
before II straight ahead into unknown
latitudes.
The weather grew colder and cold
er, and the sea was dotted with foes.
Snow and sleet fell from the sunless
sky, and the ship soon became sheath
ed in ice. Many died of the extreme
cold and exposure and were buried
In the sea. When the storm ceased
there was no sign Of land anywhere,
nothing but the loosely ocean and the
floating cakes of ice that bumped and
battered the vessel on all sides with
noise like thunder. The half-frozen
voyagers begged the captain to turn
and head south as soon as possible,
anywhere away from the terrible cold,
so the ship retreated her course.
Gradually the air grew warm, the ice
melted from decks and rigging, and
birds and flying fish appeared In
great numbers.
At last they sighted beautiful IS
land with brown and white roofs clus-
tered here and there among the tall
palms and purple hills in the back
ground. 1t was hailed with extrava-
giant Joy, for water was low, the food
running short and their clothing in
rags AS the storm-beaten ship ap-
preached crowd of people in white,
red and yellow garments gathered on
the beach. but made such unmistak-
ably hostile demonstrations they
dared not land, as their only weapons
were half a dozen muskets. So they
turned the vessel once more, and sor-
rowfully steered due north again,
finally reaching st. Johns, where they
received cordial welcome, and where
their descendants are still living.

MAKE CHANGE IN
 FOOTBALL RULES
FOUR DOWNS INSTEAD OF THREE AND ONSIDE KICK
 ABOLISHED

The football rules for the season of
 l9lz lnclude two very important changes. One of these, relating to the field itself, is extremely radical in that for the first time since the in troduction of the game into this coun- try there is an alteration in the di- mens1ons of the playing surface, or gridirOn, as it has been called Since the introduction in 1876, the field shas been 330 feet in length, 16O feet in width, but for the season of 1912 the entire field is to be 36O feet in length
 but the playing surface, that is the field, which is usually known as the field of play, will be only 300 feet in length.
 The other most important change Is allowing 4 downs in which to gain the necessary 10 yards instead of g. as formerly. The rest of the altera tons are of less importance. The number of privileged coaches who may walk up and down the side lines reduced last year to 3, has now been reduced to 1. The intermissions be- tween the first and second, and third and fourth periods have also been being now only 1 minute. The for ward pass, which was restricted to 20 yards may now be thrown any
 The on-side kick has been cut out; that is, the men of the kicker's side who are off-side are not put on-side field judge has been dispensed with and the game left in the hands of instead of 4 officials. A rule has been passed that if a kicked bali strikes the ground before going over the goal it may not score a goal
 The limit of the kick out inst tead or being the 25-yard line as formerly Is now the 20-yard line. The 2O-yard neutral zone, the bane of officials and players, has been abolished. Players may not interfere with each other on a forward pass, however, but may in case of a kick. Certain other pro visions have been necessitated by these changes, notably: the kick-off is now made, instead of from the middle of the field, on the kicker's 40 yard line; that is, 60 yards from the goal toward which they are about 4o kick
