The Great Adventure.
rom the New York Time

According to Count Zeppelin's engi-
neers, they now have close to compile
ton a dirigible balloon in which an at
tempt to cross the Atlantic could be
made without undue risk" That is
a decidedly vague characterization, the
exact point at which risk becomes un-
due being differently placed by differ
ent people. Still, a safe ocean passage
] n a Zeppelin airship, or If not a safe
passage, q successful passage, is by no
"a impossible, and although what
may be called the mortality among
these craft has been very high, they
have no such grisly record OF homi-
eide as has the aeroplane.
The latest airship, according to the
dispatches, will be $40 feet long, and
each of its -four engines Is expected to
develop the power OF 205 horses. That
Is more energy than many q big cargo
steamer has in its hold, and its aerial
possessor will be more than the ''bai-
loon with a paddle. Of a certain great
scientsst's un~forgettable description.
Such a vessel, with anything like
good luck as to weather, could un-
doubtly reach our shores from Europe,
and some day IN or them is sure TO
do It. Perhaps this Is the one.

RUDYARp KIeLINa ODDITIES. i


London Correspondence of the Kansas
City Star.
The friends Of Rudyard Kipling on
this side are seriously concerned about
the state of his health. Ever since the
death Of his child he has been obsessed
with the fear that the only child he has
left viii die and he cannot bear that
the lad should be ever out of his sight.
The dread has now become a species of
monomania with him, and all recent
visitors to him declare that he has be-
come more peculiar than ever.
For a long time past he has done odd
things. For instance, Will rise sud-
denly In q drawing-room full Of friends
and tear of without q word Of explain.
alton or apology to the guest that has
been addressing some innocent remarks
to him. And he found that he could
only live in comfort In the little village
Of nottingham by building a great
ugly and forbidding looking wall round
his mansion. / remember, too, meeting
him some years ago at a dinner Of lit
erary men. He was in a sense the lion
Of the occasion, and he greatly offended
q number of authors by demanding
from his host in a hoarse whisper:
"Why on earth should 1 be introduced
to this mann VIII he be any good to
me?"
For some years his American wife,
Caroline Starr Balestier, was blamed
for his boorishness. 1t was put about
that she was Jealous OF all his English
friends and would lot permit them to
keep on the old prematrimonial footing
with him. And this was said to be pc
cuIiarly true of poor, faithful, loyal w.
e. Henley and ]. NJ. Barrie. Today lit
erary men recall the words of Shake
Bpeare when they speak Of Kipling:
"Great wits to madness r oft allied"
And this popularity Is seldom resented,
but Is certainly the secret why Kip
ling does not cut a bigger figure among
his kind.
He has gone right out Of the world
to live in an obscure Sussex village.
Bateman's Burwash, and the only club
TO his name Is the Athenaeum. This
is one OF the dullest, dreariest and most
stodgy institutions In existence, where
most of the members are bishops and
where II a man speaks above a whisper
he Is promptly fined S.. The penalty
for waking one of these Athenians
out Of his slumbers Is instantaneous
expulsion. And this today Just suits
the author Of "Barrack Room Bal
lards," but Is held to be the true rea-
son why he has never been seriously In
the running for the position of poet
laureate to King George.

"PubIie's interest IN Public Utilities"
From the North American Review.

WHERE THERE'S A WILL.

From the Kansas City Star


A 40-mile walk will be the first lap
In the race for an education that Mr..
and Mrs. Ray l.. Clapper, a you:tS
Kansas City couple, will begin to-
morrow. Before the sun gets too hot
they will start to walk to Lawrence,
Kan, where both intend to enter the
State university. .....
Chopper is a printer and is not yet Il.
At IA he was compelled to leave school
and get work as q printers devil" A
correspondence course In type design
interested him in the history of print
ing and a study Of that history aroused
him interest in the medieval history
which vas SO closely rover about 1t.
And then 1t happened that he looked
out OF q dusty printshop window on
West Ninth street one Thanksgiving
morning--it was -four and one-half
years ago-and watched a bunch of
yelling X. u. students parading up the
street. His mind was made up--he was
going to be lone OF them fellers,r' and
Clapper has been preparing and saving
his money since that Thanksgiving.
A short term in night school pre-
pared him for entrances to the Kansas
City, Kan, high school. There he met
Miss Olive Ewing, whom he married
last spring, and this fall both young
people will enter the university Of
Kansas. Clapper plans to take O four
years course in journalism and after
that he and and his wife will take q
trip around the world, he says.
Clapper plans to support himself
while in school by setting type for the
University Kansan, the college publica-
ton, and his wife intends to give
music lessons.
People laughed at me when I
started back to high school," Clapper
says, but I went ahead. They giggled
when we were married. but we went
on, and some OF our friends laughed
outright when we told them we were
going to college. but that made no
difference to u.s."
The 40-mile jaunt to Lawrence will
be a sort OF vacation and Clapper and
his wife believe II will be as enjoyable
as 1t will be. inexpensive.

BIotchy Skin
The Remarkable Action of
a Famous Remedy and
Some Facts About 1t.

The skin is but net work of fine blood
vessels. And it Is a perfectly natural
consequence that any influence In the
blood that is a condition of Ill health
makes it's first appearance in the skin.
There are certain medicinal properties
that follow the course of the blood stream
and the influence of these properties Is
that of an antidote. This is why S. S. s.,
the best known blood purifier, has such
a positive action in the skin. There is
one ingredient in S. S. S. which peculiarly
stimulates cellular or glandular activity
to select from the blood or from this
fine net work of blood vessels in the skin,
those elements which it requires for re-
generation
Thus pimples, acne, eczema, lupus, or
any other blood condition that attacks the
skin or seeks an outlet through the skin
| is met with the antidotal effect of S. S. s.
| The action of S. S. S. in the cellular
| tissues of the body serves the active pur-
| pose of stimulating each cellular part to
the healthy and judicious selection of it's
own essential nutriment Not only this,
but if from the presence of some disturb
| ing poison a condition of disease arises,
! S. S. S. so directs the local cells that this
poison is rejected and eliminated from
their presence.
This is why skin troubles vanish so
readily and why they do not return.
Under the influence of S. S. S. this fine
net work of blood vessels in the skin is
constantly taking from the blood the nu-
triton required for healthy tissue and the
cause of disease is just as constantly be-
ing removed, scattered and rendered
harmless. These facts are more fully
explained in a book on skin troubles sent
by The Swift Specific Co., 100 Swift
Bldg, Atlanta, Ga. You will find S. S. S.
on sale at all drug stores. Get a bottle
to-day and Danish all skin Affections.
