II you hold your hand foot abov'

the glass is put on you will feel NJ
great heat, but when the glass is OF
the heat becomes intense This show!
you that the glass acts as chimney
conhning the air heated by the fame
and guiding it in narrow. currcn
| upward.
The heated air rises because it i.
lighter than the surrounding air, and
as it rises, colder air comes in at the
bottom, from all sides, to take it:
place. If you study the construction
of your lamp you will see the open
ings are left around the fame, under
the bottom Of the glass chimney, for
the purpose of admitting the air thai
rushcs in below to replace the heated
air that is going up and out of The
chimney.
Now, combustion or burning, can
not be maintained without continual
supply of oxygen, which combines
chemically with the heated gases
from the oil, and the needed oxygen
comes from the air, about one fifth
of which consists of pure oxygen
If the same air is continually ex-
posed to the fame, the oxygen will
quickly be all burnt out of it, and
then the fame will expire.
If the supply Of oxygen is too
small the combustion of the carbon
carged gases arising from the oil will
be incomplete and the fame will be
choked with smoke, which consists
of only partially burned particles Of
carbon.
That is the situation when you have
lighted the lamp but have not yet
put on the chimney, for then the air
from the surrounding atmosphere
docs not flow in fast enough to main
tain the needed supply of Oxygen.
But the moment the chimney is set
in place a draught, or current, OF
heated air begins to ascend through
it, leaving room at the bottom for
fresh air to come in, loaded with
oxygen, and the fresh air will come
in because of the pressure to which
it is subjected by the surrounding at
mosphcre.
Thereupon the fame brightens and
steadies because now there is con-
stantly enough oxygen on hand to
produce complete combustion of the
gases. The brilliancy of the fame is
principally due to minute particles OF
carbon, derived from the oil, and
heated to bright incandescence.
Chimneys are ono OF the most use
full and interesting inventions that
man has ever made. They are OF
wider and more essential importance
than anything that Edison, or any
other great modern inventor has con-
trivcd, but we do not know who made
the first chimney. In a primitive
form they must be almost as old as
the human race, for fire could not
be made to burn with any regularity
without draught to keep up the sup
ply of oxygen. The first chimneys
may have been natural crevices in the
walls and roofs of caverns which
were gradually improved. artihcially,
as men perceived, without thoroughly
understanding, how they acted.
Then, probably stones were piled
together to form rude chimneys, as
skilful camper piles them today to
cook his food on the scashore, or in
the forest. Indian wigwams were
turned into very smoky and ineffective
chimneys by making an opening in
the center of the roof.

January II, 1917.

Since society has nothing but in
vitations to lecture in its card basket,
what can it do but make OF the lee
lures society events? That is exactly
what happened last evening when Sir
Rabindranath Tagore addressed the
people OF Omaha. Matrons in hand
some evening dresses were seated to
right, to left and before the speaker
Dark shades predominated. Late in
the evening dinner parties began to
futter in and take their places on the
balcony. There handsome gowns OF
pink and white were most in evidence.
One OF the most attractive groups
included the members OF Mrs. +. A.
Nash's dinner party, given in honor
OF Mr. and Mrs. Meredith Nicholson
Of Indianapolis. These later formed
supper-dance party.
Perhaps society men were inclined
TO plead other engagements last eve
ming, however, for when the gay
groups began to descend to the sup
per rooms to follow the lecture with
dancing, many prominent matrons
! slipped away TO their waiting cars and
were whishked home to hubby sitting
BY the FIRE in comfort.

FOR A BEAUTIFUL LAWN CUT
GRASS AT THE RIGHT TIME

The lawn grass should be cut early
and often. All through April, May,
and June the grass can be cut with
profit each week 1t should be cut
with a lawn mower and let lie where
it falls. Do not rake the lawn. DO
not let the grass get so long before
cutting that it must be raked. With
tie frequent showers of May and June,
the grass will grow rapidly after each
cutting, and the clippings will be
quickly hidden During these months
OF rapid growth, the clippings make a
mulch over the grass roots, protecting
them from the heat and routh OF Au-
gust and September.
Cut the lawn every week or ten days
in May and June, and until the intense
heat of midsummer. Then put the
lawn mower away until the cool Octo-
Der days. Let the grass grow long IN
the hot summer time. In late Septem-
Der cut it with scythe, rake of, being
careful not to rake down into the
mulch, and Use the lawn mower as
needed in October and November
