1t was enough to make every million

arteries to supply quickly the new red

Gun Without RecoiI.

An officer of the United States navy
has invented a gun that fires a six
pound projectile without recoil. This
gun, because of it's absence of recoil,
is well adapted to use on aeroplanes
or dirigibles.
The gun is most interesting, having
both ends open to the atmosphere. The
shell has the projectile tied into one
end, and in the other end is mass of
bird-shot. The shot is of sufficient
weight to furnish the required reac-
ton when the projectile is discharged
from the other end of the gun. When
the gun is fired the projectile Is
thrown from the muzzle at high We
locity while the shot is discharged
from the breech at low velocity.

Portraiture in Italy,

The Pagine d'Arte, of Milan, of Oc-
tober 80, commenting on the closing
of the biennial Fine Arts Exhibition in
Venice, says: "As in most modern
Italian picture exhibitions there was a
great scarcity of portraits, and the
question naturally arises as to what
this scarcity may be attributed-to
want or demand? Until thirty years
ago there was an abundance of good
portrait painters in Italy. but since
then they seem to be altogether want
ing. The fact that not a single por-
trait of artistic value exists in Italy
of either King Humbert and Queen
Margherita, Of the present King Wit
torio and Queen Elena, nor of the last
two popes, the only good present
ments of these royalties being by for
eign artists, seems to point to a scar

He has proved that asthma in some

action, called by the doctors, "sna ply

as the result of susceptibility to pro-
ted substances in eggs. or, 40 mothers

EXERCISE IN THE OPEN AIR
Very Few Days in Year When Person
Who Is Wrapped Up Cannot Sit
in Sheltered, Sunny Corner.

One great difference between out
door air and indoor air is that the first
circulates freely and the second is
stagnant. Another difference is that
Hoods of sunshine constantly cleanse
outdoor air of it's impurities, but most
rooms get very little of that useful
commodity. Many persons who visit
the physician with complaints of poor
digestion ami anemia declare that they
are active all day long and that 60
ing out for walks is the last thing they
need.
They may be right about the amount
Of exercise they get, but people con-
stantly fall sick in spite of plenty of
exercise in the house, and get we'll
again with little outdoor exercise. A
certain amount of active work about
the house is good for everyone, but
there ought to be some daily outdoor
life as well.
1t does not follow that that outdoor
life ought to include violent exercise,
or even any exercise at all. Why
should the householder be told that
she cannot keep well unless she
dresses up in walking clothes and
takes long walk after fatiguing
morning of physical labor in the
house? Tired people should do their
resting in the open air. There are
very few days in the year when a
person who is warmly wrapped up
cannot sit with comfort in sheltered,
sunny corner Everyone knows how
babies thrive when they take their
maps outdoors; the principle applies to
the adult also.
1t is matter of scientific record
that people whose daily occupation
obliges them to sit in the open air
such as market women, attendants at
fruit stands and newspaper sellers
are robust people, who do not take
cold easily. Yet it is probable that
few people take less exercise.
Let 1t be understood that this Is
not at all an argument against phys
ical exercise. That is not only excel
lent, but in most cases necessary. But
you need not forego both air and exer-
else because you cannot conveniently
have both; open-air life without exer-
else is much more healthful than in

USE FOR LEFTOVER TURKEY
Probably There Is No Better Way
Than by Converting It Into a
Salad.

Generally there is quite bit of the
for full meal again but quite suffi-
cient for an excellent salad for an eve
ming function, high tea or course
luncheon. If the white turkey meat
does run short it is an easy matter to
supplement 1t with some of the dark
meat or even roast veal or fresh pork
and no one will be the wiser. Cut the
meat into dice, then measure and al
low an equal quantity of celery, cut
in fairly good-sized pieces If you have
any walnuts, butternuts or almonds,
cook them in little stock or boiling
sailed water for twenty minutes, then
chop fine. At serving time mix to-
gether the turkey or other meat, nuts
and celery and allow to each quart Of
the mixture, teaspoonful of salt, a
quarter teaspoonful of paprika, tea
spoonful of Worcestershire sauce and
IL you like 1t a tiny piece or Glove of
garlic, just enough to give a sugges-
ton to the palate, without the odor.
Toss and mix we'll and having lined
your salad bowl with crisp lettuce
leaves, put in the salad mixed with a
little mayonnaise, heap up, mask with
more mayonnaise and serve. ! pretty
garnish for this is the stuffed olives or
bits of the sweet red peppers that
come In cans. Chicken salad is made
in the same way. A few spoonfuls OF
the stock In which the chicken has
been boiled, makes a richer salad.

BURGLAR LEFT IN A HURRY
Incident That Taught Him 1t Was
Wise to Avoid Houses Wherein
Are Young Children.

was to avoid houses where they had
young children, Infants

through thunderstorms, windstorms,

any sort of racket, but you never can
tell what an infant will do And those
same grown-up folks that will sleep
right through anything else will wake
up sharp at the smallest peep from
an infant They seem to be tuned
that way. But had to learn this by
experience.
"One night when | was new in the
business | went into what seemed to
me a promising looking house in the
suburban districts. Got in by the easy
cellar window and padded upstairs to
the second story front room with no
trouble at all and went straight to
the bureau. | opened the top drawer
gently, without a queak, and when
turned in my light the very first thing
saw was a diamond ring that | guess
must have made my eyes sparkle as
much as the ring did. 1t was a big
stone, | should think two or three car
ats.
at was a mans ring, and instead Of
slipping it straight into my pocket as
| should have done put it on my fin
ger for just moment to look at it.
At that same instant l heard baby
begin to cry.
Il had seen two persons in a bed in
this room, but l had not observed a
crib over on the other side of the bed.
But the instant that baby cried one of
the figures in the bed raised up on its
elbow with its back toward me and
looked over into the crib at the child,
and l didn't need to have anybody tell
me that it was time for me to go,
which l did, without those two per-
sons in the bed knowing then that l
had been there at ALL"
