Death VALLEY.

Death valley is the place where bow
heroes in the story books of ten or
twenty years ago used to do most of
their heroic deeds. 1t is a desert val
ley on the unwatered plains of the
southwest, and its name was earned
by its greed for human lives. Men
died of thirst, and the bare mountains
on each hand looked down on whit
ening bones.
But now the romance is gone from
Death valley. Laborers are there, dig
ging borax out of the valley floor, and
water is hauled to them by tankfuls.
And now there is proposal to build
an automobile road down the length
of this desolation as part of road to
extend entirely across the continent.
The romance Of Death valley is. in
deed gone, and there is nothing left
for western boy heroes save an air.

LITTLE INTEREST IN FLYING
United States Stands Lowest In Mill
tary Aviation, Because of Lack
of Public Concern.

According to Lieut.. Benjamin D.
Foulois, who was rated by Orville
Wright and others as one of the most
capable aviators in any army, the
lack of public interest in aviation in
this country is deplorable. To this
lack of public interest, Lieut. Foulois
charges the responsibility for the fact
that the United States is at the foot
OF the list of great powers In the
development of military aviation.
"The public spirit that prevails
abroad is the mighty factor in this
rapid development" he said, 'and il
Is the lack of this spirit in the United
States that lie responsible for our be-
ing 30 far behind
We can never expect to see any
great amount of public interest dis
played in the development OF aircraft
in this country until it is proved to the
people of the United States that It is
good financial investment.
THE fact that this new science is
particularly useful for military pur-
poses does not appeal to the great
majority Of our complacent money
making people,"
Lieut.. Foulois expressed the opin-
ion that at present skilled aviatoEs
operating properly designed and con-
structed machines, equipped with pow
erful motors, can fly in almost any
wind. He then went on to quote
Orville Wright as having stated that
it is now possible to construct aero
planes that would carry Is persons,
and which could be driven at speed
of 100 miles an hour, if necessary.
Such machine he added, could cross
the United States with but two or
three stops.

to speculate on how long It would take
me to train up pup to have sense

And then suppose that It should

Straight Talk From a Sea Doc.

For several minutes Plain Civil

-Four Great Sauces

A Frenchman has declared that
man has created the culinary art:
he does not eat like an animal-he
breakfasts, dimes and sups."
The French are particularly elo.
quent on the subject of sauces.
Among their famous chefs are recog-
nized four great sauces: Spanish,
Veloute, Bechamel and German. The
Spanish and Veloute were known as
far back as the seventeenth century.
In the eighteenth they were modified
by the masters Of cookery, particular
ly by Careme, who was called "the
Raphael of the kitchen"
The Spanish sauce is composed OF
juices extracted from a mixture OF
ham, veal, chicken and pheasant.
Veloute is similar but is not colored.
Beehamel Is Veloute to which cream
has been added, and the German
sauce is Veloute plus the yolks OF
eggs.-Harper's Weekly.

PLUMBER HAD HIS REVENGE
Nettled by the Espionage of an Off
clous Butler, He Plays
Clever Trick.

The frost had frozen some of the
taps in gentleman's house and burst
few pipes, SO that plumber had to
be called in. The plumber was shown
round by the coachman, but as soon
as he commenced work an offlcious
butler kept close watch over him.
He didn't like the treatment, and de-
termined to play trick on the but
Ter. In the bathroom he found q
burst pipe, and, after cutting out the
ice, he quickly popped his thumb over
the hole.
Here, mate, "'he said, turning to the
butler, "hold yer thumb over this hole
while I fetch my solderin'-iron. Don't
shift, or there'll be a food
An hour went by, but the plumber
had not returned. Then the butler
called a servant who was passing, and
told him to fetch him up. She found
him enjoying lunch in the kitchen.
The butler wants to know when
you're going to release him." she said

Only a FriendIess DereIict.

He was just little dog. His life
had been spent lodging kicks, and
picking up bones from garbage boxes.
He wasn't of any particular use in
the world. No one loved him, and he.
after many vain attempts to gain a
human friend, had given up in dis
gust and become sly and cynical.
In fact he was merely a dirty. I'M
kempt, long-haired derelict of a big
city, so when he finally fell a victim
to the dog catcher it didn't matter
particularly to anyone.
The other night he was called out
to atone for his misdeeds by dying a
martyr to science. There was no one
to protest, so his life blood ebbed
slowly away on an operating table,
while group of physicians crowded
about, or even stood on chairs, the
better to see the little heart palpitat-
ing in a living breast, and to watch
the rise and fall of the unprotected
lungs until they had stopped in one
last convulsive quiver.-Chicago Rec

GUSHING GIRL IS OBNOXIOUS
superlative Degree and the Leud

There are few things so fine as eur
thusiasm, and the world wants all u

healthy enthusiasm and that effusfxe
sentimentatfty known by the uglhI
and shorter word "gush."
Every girl has her 'gush" period

1t is fine, in way; we should be
careful how we check the exuberanse
of the gir1ish nature. At the same
time caution must be exercised agaiA@A
letting the habit be formed of flying
into q febrile ecstasy about every
small thing that comes our way and
making as much OF 1t as though u
were an affair Of tine largest conGe'
quence.
It takes experience TO hold In cheek
the supeglattve degree and the loud
pedal for the proper time and the
deserving object.
But caution IN the direction OF nGa
being too intense should not be wfeh
held from the young. Adorable" ID
too strong an adjective to be indas-
criminately bestowed on poodleSl

Love" is another strong word that
needs all its strength to keep from
worn out by it's use to express, for
instance, liking for ice cream OF
delight in a week end invitation.
1t is not necessary to explode into
raptures to prove ones self well
pleased. Nor is it physically good
to be too intense.

WAS "HERo" OF THE SHORE
Thrilling Narrative of a Narrow Es-
cape During SquaIl on Firth
of Forth.

In the days when the late Sir Ed
ward Moss lived at Edinburgh's sea-
side suburb of Joppa, it was his Gus
tom to invite friends to test the sail
ing qualities of his yacht on the
Firth of Forth. One day a sudden
squall arose, and from the shore the
yacht could be seen laboring heavily.
All on board had q narrow escape,
and a local reporter scented good
copy" in the occurrence. In glowing
colors the scene was described, and
next day Sir Edward came In for
much congratulation on his providen.
tial escape.
To select company he recounted
how he saw the waters sweeping the
decks, pouring into the cabin, and
subjecting the craft to imminent peril
of being smashed against the pier.
Dreadful" exclaimed one of the
agitated listeners. Were you not
afraid?"
Afraid? No! Why should have
been?"
Did you stay on deck all the
timer"
ION deck? No"
Then not down below, surely?"
"Oh, MOI
Where were you, them"
Sir Edward Moss allowed a quiet
smile to creep over his face.

said.

earnum's First Circus Exhibit.

P. T. Barnum launched his career
in the show business by exhibiting a
remarkable negro woman, believed to
be 100 years old, and said to have
been a nurse to George Washington.
An old bill Of sale was exhibited,
properly dated, concerning Joyce
Heth, then 81 years old, and evidence
was also furnished that she was
nurse to George Washington. Every
thing seemed so straightforward to
the young man that he was eager to
become the proprietor of this novel
exhibition, which he purchased for
$1,000, $500 of which he paid down,
selling out his interest in the grocery
business, and the other $500 he Dor
rowed. He saw that the thing to do
was to make people talk and become
curious and excited over rare spec
tacles. Regardless of expense he ad-
vertised in New York, Boston and
Philadelphia, and the halls were
thronged until Joyce Heth died.-Joe

Happiness Made Up of Little THINGS.
1t is no new discovery that a
woman's happiness is often the sum
total of little things. A word look,
a gesture, goes to the making or mar
ring OF the entire day. A single buzz
zing mosquito may create a sleepless
night. A solitaray flower may bring
q message of delight.
The largeness or the littleness of
spiritual things cannot be measured
with foot rule, and something of the
smallest consequence to us because
1t Is not our own concern may be ire
mendous to another. To a bird that
builds its nest string is as much as

say. Much depends upon the sizes of

the little things that tell, because
