The beauty of the rose has been en- hanced greatly by a new. soil treat ment recently discovered in an odd manner. When the first excavations were made for the Paris subway a gardener carted away few loads of the clay dumpings. He tried roses on the soil thus procured and to his amazement they grew finer than in the highly prized clays. Since then there has been a great demand from rose-growers for subway clay. The roses grown on this soil have been dubbed subway roses" They have extraordinarily vivid colors and ex- quisite odor and are taking all prizes at the spring horticultural shows where they have been allotted a sec ton to themselves.

FRENCH ARMY POSTS SWEEP SKY WITH
 BIG SEARCHLIGHTS
Latest Move in Vigilance Against German Invasion from
 the Heavens

Paris, April 26.-French army posts
 on the German frontier have been provided with powerful searchlights
 that sweep the heavens at irregular in terva1s throughout the night on the lookout for alien dirigibles. This is the latest development in the watch fulness with which the French are guarding the German line, especially since the landing of the Zeppelin at Luneville a week or so ago.
 To test the vigilance of the look out, French airships cruise unan-
 nounced along the 242-mile border and woe to the luckless picket who fails to detect their presence. All roads leading near the frontier are guarded as never before. They way farer near the German line encount- CTS frequent patrols who observe sharply but do not challenge. Among officers of the French army a favorite topic for discussion and concern is the possible start of twenty-four hours the Germans might get in the case of war; The fate of the French nation, they say, might depend upon the prompt intelligence of a. sergean.'s pa trol. The wires leading from the frontier to Paris were alive with the alarm when the Zeppelin crossed the border and descended at Luneville. Intelli- gence officers at the Nancy headquar- ters received from watchers along the frontier four telephone calls of the passage of the aircraft. The posts on all that part of the line were astir with alarm and doubt; thousandd field glasses swept the haze and for of the heavens for a glimpse of the
 unwelcome visitor.
 At Paris, the War Ministry was promptly notified by telephone. The French air cavalry, especially the aeroplanists at Nancy, scurrIed to their hangers and remained there in m om entary readiness to take wing and
 reconnoiter the German side for movements of troops. Since then the
 French War Ministry has not relax | ed its vigilance, rather 1t has been in creased.

M. Goby, a French scientist, has de- vised an apparatus for the application of the X-ray to microscopic work which is expected to have a very im- portant bearing on the study of the smaller organisms. Many of these small organisms. because of their ca pacity, have resisted all attempts to obtain any accurate knowledge of their functions.
 To examine such an object properly with microscope it must be suffi- ciently transparent to permit the pas sage of light through it; exceedingly fine sections are taken of bodies suf- fciently large to permit of this being done, but there are many other organ izations too small to cut, and not sue ceptible of examination by the X-ray for the sace reason. In M. Goby' apparatus the object to be examined is placed on a photographic plate with out the Interpretation of black paper. Then by special process concentrat- ed X-rays are projected on it. A life size radiograph which, on being en- 1arged in the ordinary way, makes d very complete study possible is thus obtained.

"Aviette'' is the name given to a flying machine propelled by the leg power of the operator. treadling as he would on 8 bicycle. It is being tried out at Meaux near Paris by M. Eti- enne, military telegrapher attached to the third Hussars. He can rise from the earth and fly from 150 to 200 feet. The physical effort in start ing is considerable, but after the start Etienne does not find the work harder than running. With experience and a perfected machine, he believes, a man could probably fly for half or three-quarters of an hour without ex- cessive fatigue.
