The Machinist says that the rotary is capable of be- ing used as a pump and as a motor or a combination of both pump and motor, or motors. and is used as .variable-Speed transmission. The hy- draulic or oil drive as is common with all hydraulic drives, consists of pump and a motor or motors, but here the similarity ends, for Mir Dock has abandoned the usual piston idea and designed an entirely new pump and motor, which are both simple and puzzling to examine

TAX COLLECTOR

Expected to Resign on Account
of FeebIeneSS - Gained
Strength and TWenty-four
Pounds by Taking vin0I.

Corinth, Miss: -'T am a city tax
collector and seventy-four years of age.
l was in weak, rundown condition so
that / became exhausted by every little
exertion. My druggist told me about
Vinol, and l decided to take it. In a
week / noticed considerable improve
ment; l continued its use and now l
have gained twenty pounds in weight,
and feel much stronger. l consider
Vinol fine tonic to create strength for
old people. u. A. PRICE, Corinth.
AS one grows old their organs act
more slowly and less effectually than in
youth, circulation is poor, the blood
gets thin, the appetite poor and diges-
ton weak. Vinol, our delicious cod liver
and iron tonic, is the ideal strengthened
and body builder for old folks because
it creates a good healthy appetite,
strengthens digestion, enriches the
blood, improves circulation and in this
natural manner builds up, strengthens
and invigorates feeble, rundown, nerv-
Gus and aged people, and if it does not do
all we say, we will pay back your
money.

Such a tree Louise Morgan Sill de-
scribes as having been arranged by
a family in Washington for their two
children, an assembly OF friends, and
some little orphan visitors. Mrs. Sin
describes the tree, which was real
enough, in her Harper story-book
"Sunnyfield," telling how 1t was sud
denly uncovered from its canvas
wrappings, and how it stood forth,
clad with gold, silver, and color,
and with light from tiny hidden
electric bulbs, dazzling against
velvety dark sky. The tree
that grew in the sunny field was a
hemlock, and as the little group
watched that night they sang the
carol Longfellow translated from the

tory sense. Absorbed in his duties, the animal goes forward, scenting the wind, at moderate pace. He stops. questions the soil with hls nostrils and, without excitement, scratches the earth with one paw. The master digs at the point indicated by the dog. If the spade goes astray the dog corrects the digger, sniffiing at the hollow. Have no fear that the stones and roots will confuse him; in spite of depth and obstacles, the truffie will be found. A dogs nose cannot lie.
 T paid special attention to the or dinary toadstools and mushrooms which announced their near advent by cracking the crust of the soil, but dog passed them disdainfully, without a sniff, without stroke of the earth. Yet the fungi were far underground. and to me their odor was similar to that of the toadstool and the mush- room. But the sense of smell was keener with the dog than with man, and he could distinguish the difference between the fungoid odor of the truf- fie and it's distant cousins-the toad stool and mushroom"

~ HERE is a blackish- -colored sub A terranean fungi which is consid- - cred by the French a very de- licious article of food; it is called the truffie. This same delicacy is some times found in England, but the French truffie is rated higher by epicures. In France many peasants make a good living out of truffle trade, gathering truffies for the markets in the cities. There Is no other article of food of which the Frenchman is so inordinately fond. The truffle takes the place in France of the mushroom in America, only 1t is in more general use there than the mushroom is here.
 Dogs, and even hogs. are trained to locate truffies. And it Is not so much the training which fits these an- imals for the work as their own pe- culiar power of smell. Dogs take nat urally to the work of truff1e- hunting. A traveller in Southern France, the place where most of the truffies are found, has the following to say of a dog truf11e-hunter:
 Those who have never seen a dog seeking truffies have missed one of the finest achievements of the olfac-

 "One-two-th three!' cried Sam. And they were off, legs flying. toward the water That is. all except 'Smitty" He just stood stock still and doubled up like a jack-knife and laughed and laughed and laughed. 4

 The three splashes were all but simultaneous. Neither "Smitty' nor any one else could have told which boy had dived into the water first.

O NCE upon a time" said Mamma, after she had undressed Doro-
 " and tucked her snugly in O bed, there was a little boy, Robert, who imagined and imagined and just imagined things! Goodnes me. how he could think up funny things about anythingl But then, you sec he enjoyed It. and his Mamma, though she would laugh at him every now and then, was really delighted that he did so-for 1t kept him out of mis- chief
 But Roberts Papa was not quite so minded. Goodness me. he would exclaim, won't that boy ever do any thing except loll around and dream,' And. one day, he brought home with him nice box and set of carpenters tools. Now. l hope, he said, that Robert will build something real and practical with these tools, instead of just incoming around and imagining things. And he himself built bench for Robert to. work on in one corner of the store room.
 "Of course Robert was delighted with his tools and, for several days, it seemed he would surely chop up and nail down everything on the place that was made of wood. Sitting by his bench he would saw and hammer and plane and sandpaper sides and bottoms of cigar boxes into boats and various things, some of which, it must be con fessed, needed very close attention to detect the similarity between what they really were and what Robert pre- tended they were.

But that was not what "Smitty" was laughing at.
 If he had been quick in getting >out of the water, they were even quicker. Moreover, as they rushed back up the beach they were bowling loudly and rubbing their arms and legs as though million mosquitoes were biting them.
 As for "Smitty." he was rolling over and over on the beach and holding his sides with laughter.
 Just then a stern voice made "Smitty" forget his laughter and the boys their itching, burning limbs.
 Here. What does this mean!" The voice was that of Billy Bowlegs." and it was an angry one. too. Don't you boys know you are forbidden to go into the water until l or some other Sman Is on the beach? We'll"
 But neither Sam nor Arthur nor Roy could wait to hear more. Instead, with the tears streaming down their cheeks, they howled and danced about like wild Indians. rubbing their arms and legs frantically all the while.
 'Nettles! Sea-nettles'' cried Sam the youngest and worst stung of the trio. "Ow-ow-ouch. And-and-- that "Smitty" made us go in''
 "Oh, my!" echoed Arthur rubbing until his skin fairly smoked. The waters full of nettles this-this morn ing-Mr. Bowlegs-I mean MT. Bow leggit!"
 "Humph!'' said "Billy-Bowlegs." And again. "Humph What is this about John Smith making you go into the water? He didn't-yes, his suit is wet! I see he's been in, too, though I didn't see him come out"
 Then. by dint of much questioning, Mir. Bowleggit obtained the entire story of the race to the water from poor little Sam, who was crying his very eyes out.
 'So. So.' exclaimed the choir master. That's it, is it? We'll, you boys can go straight in and put on your clothes. 1'll attend to you later. See ''-. Thompson and he will give yoss ething to rub on your nettle- stinGs.

 AS the enemies of the Sticklebacks are numerous and annoying papa Stickleback continually swims around the nest to keep off looters with a fondness for Stickleback eggs and baby Sticklebacks. Many an intended looter has been pierced by the spikes of the finny watchman.
 One of the most astonishing pe- culiarities of the Stickleback is his ability to change color. Naturally il dark fish, he can turn almost white when scared by some bullying larger fish He is said to actually turn pale from fright.
