That started Maurice thinking. So
after all Lee was the man for Violet.

In devising a thoroughly practical

craft from ships at sea the navy de-
partment has achieved n of the most
notable results in the art Of military
aeronautics. Capt. Washington y
Chambers blazed the way for this revf
dictionary stride in aeronautics.
The experimental apparatus was
mounted upon a float at the Washing
ton navy yard, where, for the first
time in the history of aviation, a flying
machine was actually hurled into the
air after IN extraordinarily brief run
of something like forty feet, and given
such speed at the instant of it's release
as to keep it af1oat in the air until Its
engine was spinning fast enough to
furnish the sustaining impulse.
What was equally remarkable was
that the catapult gathered speed in
that short distance so smoothly that
the aviator wss not thrown from his
seat nor was his craft strained in the
least.

corporaI's Day Of Triumph.

At the battle of Opequon Creek,
where General Sheridan had formed
his line along the north bank of the
creek in front of a Vermont regiment,
there was quite a deep gully. The
banks were thick with blackberry
bushes and the men had a hard time
getting over through the bushes. AS
they came out they found a long line
of breastworks in front of them.
They were ordered to lie down. Soon
as the boys had got through a big Irish
corporal, that had been called a cow
ard in his company, jumped up and
hollered at the top Of his voice: "You
towards, get up and fight like men;
follow me-"
He started IN the u up the hill
with the whole regiment after him and
over the breastworks they went, with
the Irish corporal at the head.
This was the beginning Of the vic
tory Of General Sheridan over General
Early. No one ever called the Irish
corporal a coward after that.

Aren't the master workmen of the

That is what the gentry who live by
their wits are asking each other. They
know that the proprietor of a wet
goods establishment loses his mental
balance and is completely disarmed
when he is invited to have a drink. Re
Gently two husky-looking individuals
entered a Forty-second street suds en-
porium. One of the party carried an
enormous bundle, which he placed on
the top of the mahogany. They both
called for a drink.
"Well, it is hopeful that my wife
will stop her nagging about the cold
weather and being cold when I carry
this home," said the man who carried
the bundle.
At the end of the bar stood the pro.
prietor of the we goods establishment.
He seemed curious, so the two men in

accepted. One of them explained that
he had the finest pair of wool blankets
that was ever sheared from the backs
of sheep in the package.

unfastened one end of the bundle.
The proprietor felt and acknowl.

the man, as he picked up the bundle.
"Why don't you leave them here un-

companion.
"Good idea," he said. And turning
to the owner of the cafe he asked If
he could leave the bundle.
Sure" said the proprietor, "but you
had better write your name IN 1t to
avoid any mistake"

The next day the owner of the cafe

survey of the wet goods and then went
to the rear of the store, where the safe
was. Here was a surprise for him.
He found the door of his burglar-proof

Water Plants.

II has been found that the climate
affects the inhabitants of the sea just
os # does those of the land. AS Arctic
land plants cannot flourish at the
Eouator. so in the Arctic and Ant.
arctic oceans marine plants are
found that are unable to survive
In warm water. Among the most
remarkable of these cold-water plants
are the laminariaceae, a kind OF
seaweed, which sometimes attains a
gigantic size, exceeding in length the
longest climbing plants of the tropical
forests, and developing huge stems like
he trunks of trees. Investigation has
shown that these plants flourish in the
coolest waters of the Polar seas, and
that they never advance further from
their frigid homes than to the limits of
Summer temperature" in the ocean.
The genial warmth destroys them, just
as a Polar blast shivers the flowers Of

One of the most annoying things In

the collar comes undone at each tug
Of the tie. Lee Williams watched with
interest the patient struggles of his
roommate, Maurice Turner, with such
a tie and such a collar.
"Why don't you wear another tel"
Lee suggested at length.
Because l am going out with Violet
and she likes this tie. She gave it to

Violet Fitzgerald going to cause a
breach to come between them? Things
could not go On as they had been 60

would have to make a choice between
them, sooner or later. What If she
chooses Lee? 1t was most likely she
would, for Lee vas talented, heir to
