There never was a time in the his
tory Of the world In which there was so
violent a passion of movement as to-
day. We are none of us content to
live our lives in one place. We must
all be going somewhere in search Of
new sights. The railroad no longer
keeps pace with our desires. The
neatly laid rails which traverse our
continent seem too formal in the ra-
pidity Of our thought 1t inks us to pre-
sent ourselves at a railway station in
time for the express.
Wa must settle our own hour and
take our journey as we list. So motor
cars come to the aid of railway trains,
and for those who cannot bear the
sloth and solidity of the earth on which
they were born there is the flying ma
chine.

WILD SWANS INVADE SHIP
Shippers Bring Some Of the Big Birds
Home to Philadelphia
% Proof.

Philadelphia. - Hundreds of wild
swans which had apparently lost their
way in the fog dashed against the
steamer Ericsson while the vessel was
in the mouth Of Chesapeake bay. The
huge birds shattered SO many panes of
glass and caused SO much disturbance
that many passengers sprang from
their berths and rushed on deck.
thinking some mishap had befallen the
boat.
Several of the birds were captured
and brought to this city. F. 8. Groves,
president of the company. declared
them the finest specimens he had ever
seen. The prisoners, which are pure
white in color, were among a number
which few in the forward gangway,
which was open, and failed to find
their way out the other side of the
boat. Some of the birds became con-
fused among the cargo and were cas-
lily captured.
Captain McNamee, commander of
the Ericsson. said that the odd attack
occurred about $3.50 a. m. He ven-
tured the opinion that the birds were
attracted by the electric lights of he
vessel. The game laws of Maryland
and Virginia, he explained, have re-
suited in q wonderful increase in bird
life.

DYE BRINGS $12 A POUND
How a Broom Factory Makes Great
Profits on q Hogshead Pur.
Chased Years AGO.

Marysville, Kan.-H. H. Todt, q
stakeholder in a broom factory located
near Marysville, tells a story Of forced
prosperity which fell upon his COM
pany as a result of the European war.
The factory uses green dye to
color the broomstraw in its products
and had been buying the dye at a
price of one dollar a pound. 1t uses
on an average of eight or ten pounds a
year. In 1911 it received a letter from
a firm in the East who claimed to be
overstocked on the dye and offered 1t.
at a price of forty cents pound If it
would buy a barrel. A barrel looked
like enough to last lifetime. but the
price was so tempting the factory
placed an order for barrel. When
the barrel arrived it had grown to a
hogshead and contained 500 pounds.
Considerable correspondence resulted.
but the broom factory finally accepted
the 500 pounds Of dye and settled the
deal.
Recently at q meeting of the broom
manufacturers in Chicago. the repre-
sentative of this factory learned that
green dyes were almost priceless. Up
on his return he advertised it's surplus
stock at $12 per pound in single pound
lots or SO per pound in lots Of ten
pounds or more. He has sold large
quantity of the dye and says he will
have no trouble in selling the remain
der of the surplus stock at $12 per
pound.

spotted appearance which undergoes

greater changes with longer intervals
Of time. depending upon the we'll

and the periodic recurrence Of the sun
spot maxima and minima. These and
certain well-known related phenomena

forecasts of the weather far in ad-
vance. That these features Of solar

troll and determine the daily changes

Solar phenomena of the kind described

Gates of these schemes assert that
they can forecast the weather for

Before the European war metol was
