How. Alcohol ls Made.

Most people when informed af the fact that alcohol is being mannfac- tured from snwdust immediately as- sume that the product Is the so.ealies "wood alcohol" of commerce. This s not the case, and statement of the two processes of manufacture makes the distinction clear. True wood ar methyl alcohol is produced by the de- structive distillation of wood. Cord- wood is placed in a retort which is heated until the gases and liquids are driven of and only charcoal remains. The liquid distillate is then divided in- to components. one of which is wood alcohol. In the production of ethyl all cohol from sawdust the process at cer- tain stages is very similar to that used with grain, molssses, potatoes. etc, and the product Is exactly the same. The sawdust is cooked with dilute acid to produce sugars from the wood substance. These sugars arc leached out and the liquor is fcrment- ed and distilled, producing grain IT ethyl alcohol.-American Lumbermaii.

 And at 8 D. m, promptly in his handsome bachelor apartments the Judge sat at a grooming table await ing his guest. Everything he could think of from favorite cigars to odd Was on the table. There was ring at the door. The Judge fairly hugged lie thin, haggard man who was shown into the room. Then he regarded him more closely and his face fell trifie. If he had spoken out his real mind he would have said, "Overton. you make he feel old" for his guest seemed to have advanced years since last he had seen him.
 He was reserved and his lips twitched when the Judge asked him about his family The Judge did not pursue the subject. but with a SUD- pressed sigh decided that Mrs. Over ion had not improved in her ways with the years. Overton threw off his shell of weariness as the meal pro- gresSed, however No one could be long with iovial Judge Hampden without feeling the influence of his bright hu- nor.
 You spoke about business, Over ton" observed the Judge finally.
 "Yes." nodded his guest. 'I want you to ioaE me Sl0900."

 A snasm indetinable crossed Over tens fnce. The devotion, the confidence expressed in the act of the Judge seemed to touch him deeply. Not a reference did his eonsiderate friend rake to the use intended for the money, to security, repayment. Abso- lute trust was indicated.

OCCASION FOR GOOD LAUGH
Contemporary Points Out opportuni- ties That Are Offered at Dancing
 Teachers Convention.

"There is a dancing teachers con- vention on up at the Martinique. It ought to make d good josh story"
 And so it ought. There is probably nothing funnier than teaching dancing, II less it be the domestic troubles of a decent family. They are both essen tially josh stories. Heaven knows there is enough somhre stuff in the papers nowadays. without missing a chance to de something funny on convention of people who teach dane ing in Their home towns, It makes one laugh just to think of it.
 When the next convention comes to town, don't fail to drop in to see it. In the first place, when you go up to the headquarters you will see an az gregation of men and women who are rather more neatly dressed than the average New Yorker. That in itself is comical. Then they will proceed to discuss what they have found to be the prevailing fashion in dancing in their respective fields, and will sug- gest reforms and Improvements. By this time you will have to step outside for a few minutes, you will be laugh ing so hard.
 If you can stand if, you can watch them eat Ut their convention dinner.

SCENE or FAMOUS STORY
sheiI-Torn LOT guevai Will Be Re- membered by Many Readers fer
 "l'Abbs ConStantin"

From Longueval, at present a she'll torn battlefield of France, the apex of the British offensive north of the S0mme, to the much-loved and uni versally read novel, "Abbe Constan- tin." of Ludovic Halevy, with it's al- most absolute peace, is very long step.
 In comparison with the Longueval of today one thinks of the vicarage of Longueval of the book. with it's weli-cared=for pear and peach trees, and the simple churchyard, where Alb be Constantin So tenderly cared for the graves of his friends.
 Untold hosfs of readers of the book will vainly try to picture the cure, Jean Reynaud lieutenant in the Ninth regiment of artillery Mme Susie Scott, her sister, Miss Bettina Perci- val and Paul de Lavardens, as part of the countryside that has been hope lessly wrecked by a few weeks of present-day warfare.
 The book is to France a perfect de- fense against a certain radical school
 
 it's praise of Jean ReynauG and his forbears, with "There are families like that in France, and many of them more than one, one ventures to say. Our poor country is in many respects cru. ely calumniated by certain novelists, who draw exaggerated and distorted pictures of it."
 One recalls the story of the sale of the estate of the Marquis de Lsngue- val, the cure, in his simple fear of hercticS, horror-stricllen on being told that the castle and its lands had been bought at auction by an immensely wealthy American. Mme Scott His fear grows on being told that she had been circus rider, and on Paul de Lav- arden's telling him that he admired hel shoulders, those dazzling shou- ders. on which undulated q necklace of diamonds as big as the stopper of a decanter.'
 Many will remember the vicarage. where the cure first received the un- conventional Americans, and his hap niness at being told that they were to be his parishioners and were not heretics the scene of the simple meal where Jean first met Bettina and where the cure again heard his beloved organ played, or the terraces or gar dens where Jean and Bettina met so often and where their friendship grew.
 And that Ninth regiment of artil- lery One thinks of it's departure for camp and Bettina running out to see it pass, of being shocked by the pelt- ing rain while standing clothed in fi'my ball dress. one piece of foot gear gone, caught in the mud some distance back. Also the Church of Iongueval. where Jean and Bettina were married in spite of his simple ob- jections because of Bettina's wealth.

BraxII's Centenary.

The centenary of the independence
of Brazil from European rule will
occur in 1922 and will be celebrated
in Rio de Janeiro. One of the feat
ures of the celebration will be a con-
gresa of continental American history.
The arrangements for the congress
are under the direction Of the Brazil
ian Historical and Geographical insti-
tute, which will endeavor to secure the
cooperation of the Pan-American
union with a view to having all the
American nations participate in the
discussion and publication Of papers
on the history Of the American conti-

doubtedly will offer opportunity for i'm

may be made very attractive and coy,
so the arrangement should be chosen
that will appeal the most to the per-
sons that are concerned.
1t is the attention to the arrange
ment and the smaller details of houses
that makes the difference between a
house and home. Such little thing
as the placing of the fireplaces win
probably not appear to most people
as important enough to bother with,
but they will notice it If they go to
some other home and find that the
other people have made very coy
arrangement out of living room by
the attention to such small details as
this.
The seat placed in the broad win
dow facing the front of the house is
another attractive feature of this
room.
The living room is connected to the
rest of the house by two cased open
ings. One of these leads to the re-
ception hall and the other to the din,

of the house. This makes 1t possible
to have a double exposure for each

from the bath, which is located oppo-

subject of building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience

This is an attractive family house of
style that is becoming more popular
all the time, especially in the West.
1t is fairly small, % by SO feet and,
being built in a square shape, all the
room inside is utilized to the largest
extent. Three rooms are located on
the first floor, and on the second there
are four bedrooms and a bath. There
is also a small sewing room located
in the front central part of the second
floor.
The porch is built into the house and
is under the main roof The columns
on each side and the one at the other
front corner of the house give a dig
nified appearance to the exterior. The
broad windows carry the impression
of CHEEKY, bright interior.
A house that is nearly square, as is
this one, presents many advantages.
In the first place all the space is util-
lied and 1t is possible to get large
rooms which are well lighted and ven
tilated. The bedrooms especially can
be set in the corners so that they have
an exposure In two directions. Also

heated.
