Beginning of BalIooninq.

The art of ballooning originated in
the year 1888, with the experiments of
McSsrS. Charles and Robert, who i'm
proved on those Of MOntgoltcr, of n
few weeks earlier, by the substitution
of hydrogen for heated mir in the fill
Ing of balloons. All these first attempts
ut aerial navigation were made mt or
near Paris. In November of 1888 Pi-
lastre de Rozier made n successful as
cent in n MontgOltier "fire balloon" and
the interest then awakened has con-
tinucd to the present day, with the
honors still resting with France. How
ever, after all these attempts, Il man
by the name of Blanchard was the first
to make bnllooning II vocation, and he
died natural death in 1909, after GO
flights without accident. His widow
was not 80 fortunate. She had served
an apprenticeship with her husband,
and was killed ten years after hlv
death, in Paris, by II fall.

NapoIeon's Cannon.

Machinists who made war NUM-.
lions in the time of Napoleon had no
such equipment and tools as those of
the present day process.
According to an Old-time sketch
brought to light recently, cannon were
bored by means of a wooden lathe
driven by horse power.
The horse Travelled in n circle In the
lower part OF building, turning n
pro'igi0us axle, to the upper end of
which crude but huge gear wheel
was attached. This propelled smnIlcr
pinion mounted near it's periphery and
the piniOn in turn revOlved n chuck in
which one end Of the cannon was at
tached
The boring tool was advanced by a
man operating hnnd wheel at the
tar end of II machine.
Another hand wheel on small
travelling car about the lathe lowered
the cannon into place or removed It
when machined.

"Well, can ask you to come back,
can't II" He smiled at her encour-
agingly.
"Are you sure you understand about
Max Wilson and myself?"
Everyone makes mistakes now and
then, AID loving women have made mis-
takes since the world began. Most
neonle live in glass bauses, Miss uar-
rison. And don't make any mistake
about this: People can always come
back. No depth is too low. All they
need is the will power"
He smiled down at her. She had
come armed with confession. But the
offer meant reinstatement, another
chance. She would work her finger
ends off for him. She would make It
up to him in other ways. But she could
not tell him and lose everything.
"Come," he said. "Shall we go back
and start over again?"
He held out his hand.

for long arrears of hopelessncss. He
held her off n bit to look mt her, as If
to be sure it was she and no change

"NOt when came to you with every

Her eyes filled. She bent down and
kissed one Of his hands. He was so
happy that the foolish little caress
made his heart hammer in his ears.
II think, K, that is how one can al
ways tell when it is the right one, and
will be the right one forever and ever.
It is the person-one goes to in trou-
ble."
He had no words for that, only little
caressing touches of her arm, her hand.
Perhaps, without knowing 1t, he was
formulating sort of prayer that,
since there must be troubles. she
would always come to him and he
would always be able to help her.
And Sidney, too, fell silent. She was

"You had been very successful" She
did not look up.

The room was very silent. In the
nurses parlor, few feet down the cor
r1dor, the nurses were at prayers.
"Yea, though walk through the Sal.
ley of the shadow of death"
The man tn the chair stirred. He
had come through the valley Of the
shadow, and for what? He was very
bitter. He said to himself savagely
that they would better have let him
die.
You say you never loved me because
you never knew me. I'm not q rotter,
Sidney. Isn't it possible that the man
you cared about, who-who did his
best by people and all that's the real
met"
She gazed at him thoughtfully. He
missed something out of her eyes, the
sort of luminous, wistful greatness.
Measured by this new glance, so clear,
so appraising, he shrank back into his
chair.
"The man who did his best is quite
zeal. You have always done your best
In your work; you always will. But
the other is a part of you too, Max.
Even if I cared, would not dare to
run the risk"
She took step toward the door,
aesitated, came back, and put light
hand on his shoulder.
"I'm sorry, dear Max"
She had kissed him lightly on the
cheek before he knew what she intend
ed to do. So passionless was the little
caress that, perhaps more than any,
thing else, it typified the change in
heir relation.
When the door closed behind her, he
saw that she had left her ring on the
arm Of his chair. He picked it up. It
was still warm from her finger. He
leld it to his lips with quick gesture.

While tenants of laborers' cottages
applied for rent reductions to the Dun
cannon Rural Council Councillors COM
planned that they were not cultivating
their plots. The Clerk stated that
there was a net loss of Go on the cot
tases for the half-year, and by direc-

tenants informing them that they
would have to cultivate their plots or
clear out. It was decided to make no
change in the rents.

The lines OF earnestness should be

lightly from eyebrows to nair line, re-

fuses the brows with a rich glow.
The lines in front Of the ears should
be treated by the same process. There
should be the same soft, light patting,
roaxing the blood to the surface, but in
