PERPETUAL MOTION SCHEMES

London.-All Great Britain appar.

motion machine-only Great Britain
calls 1t a "self-moving engine" The
past year 1t has ripened a crop Of ono

one shows the slightest inclination to

Varied and often pathetic are the
histories Of the inventors. Not q few
Of them have spent the years of their
prime in the chase of this unattain-
able will O. the wlsp; others have
dropped thousands Of pounds In the
quest: still others have trailed the

all the wasted energy spent In seeking
the solution Of this problem had been
converted into the beaten channels of
endeavor the patent office officials be-
lieve there would be few problems of
mechanics left today unsolved.

The grunts Of Caliph n. started all the
lions roaring. Sichert edged into the
cage to remove the cat, but not quite
soon enough. Caliph foundered into
the tank. and Louise let go.

OF the tank with a broom. It was
only a few days ago that Louise went

THEIR POINTS OF VIEW
BY SARAH e. HIPP,

She was about nineteen and she
wore canoe-shaped hat with one red
rose dangling rakishly off the back of
the brim. Her cheeks were as pink as
a baby's. The headgear of her male
companion had little bow at the
rear. His trousers had cuffs at the
ankles and he had not shaved often
enough to have acquired the whitish.
gray complexion of a grown up man.
The two fell into the chairs at the lit
tie table in the confectionery store
and ordered chocolate sodas with the
exuberance of youth.
Goodness" said she, following
with her eyes middle aged couple
who had entered and taken q table in
q corner. Shouldn't you think when
people were as old as that they would
have got over caring for soda water
and ice cream?"
Il should say so," agreed the young
man. His expression was distinctly
plying as he watched the newcomers.
The man was getting portly and.
while the woman's hair was arranged
In the latest mode, 1t was sprinkled
with gray and she had q decided ma
tronly look. One could be certain that
she had tucked all the children in bed
before she and dad started for their
evening stroll.
Wouldn't you hate to be as old -
that?" said the young man. What do
you suppose people find to enjoy in
life at that age?"
Goodness knows!" said tho pretty
girl. "They can't 80 to dances any
more or have any sort Of fun! I
should think It would be perfectly aw.
full! I read about = woman once who
was q famous beauty and WHEN she
found her first gray hair she died of q
broken heart l know Just how she
felt!''
You'll never get gray!" comforted
the young man. mot II you live to be
100. But l should think people like
those over there would envy young

Nearly all Buildings on Water Street
Are Gone.

Montrose Journal: All the river
front is gone but the depot and the
two brick buildings opposite the old
bank building.
Then comes the high railway grade
and on the upper end of First street
all the houses have been removed
from the block between First and
Water streets until you get down to
the place where the old Masonic build
ing stood. There the water power
people have moved the old Journal
office. better known to those who for
merly lived here as the Reeves &
Sens building. The Masonic hall has
been torn down and only two build
ings stand between First street and
the river north of the alley.
They are now laying the track on
the new railway bed, and in a few days
the trains will be running on the high
track To any of the old inhabitants
the old town front would be a great
surprise. Nothing will be left along
the river front In a few weeks. Here
is where we take our new start. The
river and railway will both contribute
to this end. When the people who
have been living where flood has en-
dangered their business and expensive
power only could be obtained learn
OF our advantages they will not be
slow to see the advantage of high,
healthful location.
To some the passing away of so
many houses, which were old land
marks there, viii be kind of sadness,
but TO those CT us who live here and
see the determination here for i'm
provement the loss is only gain.
