Is this not conclusive that the people of the county

FOR MOTOR WINDOWS
MATERIAL CLAIMED TO BE BET.
 TER THAN GLASS.
Declared to Be Almost UnbreakabIe.

For many years 1t has been one of the endeavors of automobile manu- lecturers, especially of limousine and sedan bodies, to find a substitute for the dangerous glass used as windows in motor cars
 A material has been brought out by one of the largest manufacturers of explosives in the world. under the trade name of cellon, which possesses some remarkable qualities. In the first place. 1t is almost unbreakable by ordinary handling. Sheets of this material can be bent backward and forward many times without break uct can be subjected to blows with out showing fractures; 1t can be pro- duced in any desired thickness. up to half an inch, in plates measuring 1i0 by 60 centimeters. In rods and tubes the material can be had in any de sired thickness. Clear and complete ly transparent, light or dark colored. mottled or even black, it can be used for the manufacture of all objects now made of celluloid.
 Its chief advantage over celluloid is its safety against fire. A sheet of sellon may be ignited by an open Game. but the burning portion will melt and a few drops of the mate. rial will fall to the ground It will not continue to burn. The material weighs about 2.6 ounces per 100 square inches of 0.0i-inch thickness.

AUTOS IN WARFARE
Observation Car Is Considered Important Unit by All the
 Armies Engaged.
DIFFERENT VEHICLES IN USE
German Cars Are tishtEr Than the French, Who Employ Motor Capa- bie of Drawing Light Trailer With a Number Of Men and
 Kite Equipment.

The observation car is an impor- tant unit at the front. Both sides make extensive use of it, says the Scots man. The Germans seem to prefer a car fitted with an extending ladder, after the manner of fire escape, and the observer, perched on the rungs Of the ladder, is raised by engine power to a height of about thirty-five feet from the ground. The altitude is mod est, but on the plains of the western theater it makes much valuable infor- nation obtainable. The French method is more elaborate.
 Man-lifting kites replace the extend ing ladder. and the. observer is car ried in a baske: suspended below the kites. and views things from a greater altitude than the German observer. The French system involves the use of substantial motor vehicle, capable of drawing a light trailer. and the two together provide accommodation for 8 sufficient number of men and for the whole of the kite equipment.
 When the apparatus gets to work. the first series of kites is sent up. and to these is connected a wire rope, which forms a temporary aerial rope. way. and on which is run a little trolley with the basket car attached The trolley is drawn up by means of a second series of kites, and the two series are both controlled by the engine power of the car. through spe. cial winding drums, the arrangement being similar to that employed in con. nection with captive balloons.
 By using engine power, the cable connected to both series of kites can be drawn al the rate of 600 feet per minute. which has the double advan tage of making it possible to pull the observer down quickly out of any danger from gunfire that may arise and of allowing a sufficient air pres sure to be concentrated on the lifting surfaces of the kites to prevent sud den fall

PIRATES IN CHINESE WATERS
Freebooters Extend Their Operations to Land Expeditions, and Ere
 quently Loot Villages.
..zzFszlss5asz zz .zs zeS. .

A fayorite form of freebooting in Chinese waters takes the form Of river piracies. The pirates themselves are. unlike their deep-water outlaw brethren, more of the jackal type, sinking, cowardly, but still murder ous and deadly whenever they fall in with unarmed parties. They infest the shallow rivers, creeks and canals which cut in from the China coast.
 The big junks, in use by the deep sea freebooters, are of no earthly good in shallow waters, and so the river robbers make use of light-draft craft known locally as fast crabs" and "scrambling dragons" The West river near Canton Is favorite ground for these shallow-water freebooters. al though the great Yangtse-kiang river Is also infested with them.
 In their little craft they navigate without trouble over the shallows and rapids inland as far as Chungking, which is more than 1000 miles from the coast, and instead of preying upon the merchant ships and steamers or
 
 the deep, they loot villages, murder travellers. massacre white concession aires, and cause untold trouble to the missionaries, Of whom there are many hundreds in this part of inland China. And it is against these river pirates particularly that the activities of the little Palos and Monocacy will tS s-< rected.
 For several years EngizIA Germany and Japan maintained light-draft river boats for use against the pirates and now the United States follows their example. China. too. will soon add sev- eral vessels of a similar type to her service.
 During the last four years several citizens of the United States have been murdered by Chinese pirates.

that are absolutely necessary to do c satisfactory job of house painting.
 Hip roofs or cottage roofs, as they are commonly called in many sections of the country. look better when the pitch is low. Old houses built in this way are still attractive when they stand plumb and are well painted. Hip roofs are cheaper to build than any other form of roof when the say. ing in gables is figured fin. It is all plain straight work except framing the rafters. and that job is no great puzzle. The roof may be made of light material. because it is easily braced and supported from the house partitions. Sometimes the studdings When this is done a very solid house frame is the result.
 There is a big cellar under this lit. tie cottage that may be made useful for storage by running partitions across to separate the heating plant from the other rooms. The laundry in the basement of cottage house or bungalow should amount to more than the laundry in a two-story house. be- cause the extra space should be made to count for as much as possible.
 The laundry under this house should be fitted with the usual stationary tubs, but it also needs a laundry stove and a large work table. a mangle and good ironing boards. There should be good thick rug on the concrete floor to stand on while doing the ironing.
 Such a laundry room needs good deep windows that may be easily opened for ventilation when necessary. It then makes shop where tools and laborsaving conveniences may be per. manently installed for use week after week the year round. Too little at. tention is paid to laborsaving conven. fences to help out in house work.
 The floor plan of this cottage house is laid out for comfort. The two bed. rooms and bathroom occupy one side of the house. preferably the side to the north or east. The bedrooms are used less than the living rooms and it is not necessary to have much heat in bedroom.
 The living room and dining room could be easily made into one large living room with a fireplace in the far end. The only change necessary would be to connect the dining room and pantry with a doorway, which would be an improvement over the plan of placing the doorway between the dining room and kitchen. The chimney would be larger and placed in the center of the dining room wall This one big chimney would answer for the furnace in the basement, the kitchen range and the large fireplace in the living room without adding very much to the expense of the house.
 A fireplace at the end of this long sitting room-parlor with a built-ir bookcase and buffet to match make. a very pleasant finish and helps to fur nish the room. Fireplaces when vel

Three hours later I was in the Ger man trench at La Bassee. When l had accustomed myself to the steady craeb'aS of rifles in the firing pits. which I could not see. but which l knew must be close by; when l had nervously counted the bursting of 20 shells, all iH an appalling few min utes, yet had heard no plop of frag- ments burying themselves into the mud above, I began to be able to look about me. I was standing in a pit about seven feet deep and barely wide enough for two passing men to squeeze by. By turning my indispen- sable electric torch this way and that I could see in the rear wall of the trench a series of caves dug in the earth, their entrances so low that a man would have to enter them on hands and knees. In some I saw the faint yellowish gutter of candles and others were pitch dark. But in the front wall of the trench there were cut, at intervals so short that the place seemed a catacomb, narrow passages that led to rhe shooting pits, recesses not more than five feet wide, re-en- forced at the level of ths ground with sandbags and armor; and on either side of these approach c.-sases I saw the holes in thc .arth in which men slept -d lived. and ate when they weren't in the pits. their guns toward the enemy. At the lieutenant's sug- gesrion I went down into one of the caves.

Tends to Increase Tire Bills.

The things that happen to automo- pile tires in races ought to be warn ing enough to all users that speed Is expense" says an expert High speed very often defeats its own ob- ject because so much time Is taken out to replace tires which are used up by the friction.
 Tt should appeal to the private owner that driv ag excessively fast is bound to shortea the life of his tires. Making a road raco out of touring trip will have that effect beyond a doubt. That is one lesson racing tells that cannot be dwelt upon too strong ly for the benefit of the general auto mobilist."

built add a great deal of comfort to the home. When artistically arranged. they add greatly to the interior finish.
 It is fashionable to leave the chim- ney brickwork exposed. Very often rough, dark.coIored brick are used with colored mortar to match. The chimneys are large and the mantels are heavy, with woodwork extending to the floor on both sides sf the chim- ney.
 The woodwork in all parts of the room is made to correspond. The old-fashioned, deep, twisty mouldings and corners are no longer wanted. The fashion has swung to smooth fin ish, plain but heavy. and there are no creases to hold dust, and no deep fluctuations to require frequent clean. ing. Modern woodwork is attractive, because 1t is sensible and because it is matched together with artistic uni formity.
 House interiors are made as light as possible. Large windows and p,en- ty of them, light-colored walls and white ceilings, are almost universal in the newer houses. There Is a great deal of white enamel finish. which is very hard, smooth. and glossy, so that 1t is easily kept clean. It IS the most sanitary finish ever adopted for the interior of dwellings.
