Apropos of the murderous German
air raids on open towns, Mayor Edwin
w. Fiske of the Mount Vernon exemp-
ton board said:
why, the Germans have no more
regard for women's and children's
lives than the old California justice
had for the Chinaman
This Chinaman had been killed by
drunken rancher, and the proof
against the murderer seemed irrefut-
able. The justice, however, wound UP
the case in short order.

Miss Evie Greene. the musical COM

TO tell story about a ghost which she
firmly believed she had seen, says
London Tit-Bits. The London CORE
spondent of the Sheffield Daily Teie-
graph says the vision was at Sunder-
land. when she was playing principal
boy in a pantomime.
Miss Greene was lodging In fish-
errnan's cottage, and one night when
she and some girls from the panto-
mime were going to her rooms for sup
per there overlook them on the stairs
the transparent figure of a little sailor
lad. his arms raised, his eyes closed
and his body dripping with water
The figure hurried up to the atuc
of the cottage, and Miss Greene and
her companions ran trembling into the
nearest room. Afterwards they went
all over the house, but could discover
no trace OF the visitor
Next thing Miss Greene found her
Iandlady grief stricken. She had Just
received telegraph from the owners
of a ship in which her boy had sailed

FINDING THE ALTITUDE.
How Airmen Measure tho Heights 60

Altimeters or Paragraphs are used by
aviators to measure the heights to
which they ascend. Both OF these in
struments are constructed on exactly
the same principle as the aneroid ba-

much compressed by Its own weight.
the pressure is about fifteen pounds to
the square inch but Mt greater heights
1t becomes less. The barometer is gov

the height above sea level.
There are many forms of barometers.

part is closed. and the space above the

lower or hook end Of the tube is open

less ON rising above the surface, the
mercury in the long part of the tube
falls. The extent of the fall indicates
the height.
Airplanes use one of these instru-

the airplane comes down the instru-

Modern Way of Making

emollient to the skin, says a CORE

Crushed lnseed is preferable to lin
seed meal, producing softer, more
moist result, and sufficient 10 make at

The old fashioned way of boiling 1t
