 Who wants to write plays when two people can be so much happier at other things?" Miss Mayo sa.d, her infectious laugh fairly radiating with joy.
 Neither MT. Mrs. SelWyn has any desire to go back on the stage; they are quite content to write and live and be interested in their work and enjoy their home up the Hudson, and dig about in the ground and revel in other incense quential things that rank so highly in the opinions of those who possess them.

Niagara on Tan

To what extent should Niagara Falls be sacrificed in the production of cleo tric power? Prof Thomas H. Norton, In an article appearing in the Febru- ary Popular Science Monthly, outlines plan whereby it would be possible to satisfy those who see only the beauty of Niagara and those who see only power going to waste In describing his project, the writer says:
 "Once provided with the mechanical means to control the vast volume of water ordinarily sweeping over the crest of Niagara, the daily programme would be as follows:
 "At s D. m. the entire series of gates on the dam would simultaneously close. A few minutes later and the American falls woul falter. The volume of wa ter would swiftly diminish.
