"FIying, Fish" Torpedo.

Aerial torpedoes-the bane of Ger man submarine crews and drst-line trenches-have been called flying fish," because their tapering cylindri-I gal bodies and huge air-flns suggest the tropic sea creatures. The torpe- does are held upright in the air and given a diving velocity by the air re- sistance which strikes the fins, spin,- ming them round and round. Con-, trary to popular impressions, certain forms of air resistance speed up rather than retard falling objects. Not only the aerial torpedoss, but all air plane bombs and darts, are now groov- ed or filmed to whirl in fall- Ing. The German Zeppelin bembA are similarly constructed.

CHAPTER XIV.
The Dollar Chasers.


 Granville took them to its bosom with a haste and earnestness that made Hazel catch her breath. Tact fully none so much as mentioned An drew Rush, nor the five-thousand-dollar legacy-the disposition of which sum still perplexed that defunct gentle mans executors. And once more in genial atmosphere Hazel concluded to let sleeping dogs lie. She learned from various sources that Bills for tune loomed big, had grown by some mysterious process of Granville tattle, until 1t had reachel the charmed six figures of convention.
 There had been changes. Jack Bar row had consoled himself with a bride. Moreover, he was making good, in the popular phrase, at the real-estate game. The Marshes, as she had pre- viously known them, had been totter- ing on the edge of shabby gentility. But they had come into money. And as Bill slangily put 1t, they were using their pile to cut lot of social ice. Kitty Brooks husband was now the head of the biggest advertising agency in Granville. Hazel was glad of that mild success.
 She was inordinately proud of Bill. when she compared him with the aver age Granville male-yet she found her. self wishing he would adopt a little more readily the Granville viewpoint. He fell short of 1t, or went beyond 1t. she could not be sure which; she had an uneasy feeling sometimes that he looked upon Granville doings and Granville folk with amused tolerance. not unmixed with contempt. But he attracted attention. Whenever he was minded to talk he found ready us- teners.
 Once or twice she conjured up a vision of his getting into some busi- ness there, and utterly foregoing the North-which for her was already be- ginning to take on the aspect of a bleak and cheerless region where there was none of the things which daily whetted her appetite for luxury, noth- ing but hardships innumerable-and gold. The gold had been their re- ward-a reward we'll earned, she thought. Stll-they had been wonder fully happy there at the Pine river cabin. she remembered.
 They came home from a theater party late one night. Hazel kicked of her slippers, and gratefully toasted her

 Beside Hazel, Lauer's wife absent ly caressed the blond head of her four-year-old daughter.
 "No, I don't think I'll ever get lone some," she said. I'm too glad to be here. And I've got lots of work and my babies. Of course, it's natural I'd miss woman friend running in now and then to chat. But person can't have it all. And I'd do anything to have roof of our own, and to have it some place where our Twin don't depend on pay envelope.

 Hazel had momentary vision of un- related hardships by the way, and she wondered how the man could laugh and his wife smile over 1t. Two thou sand miles in a wagon! And at the journeys end only rude cabin of logs-and years of steady toll. Isola. tion in huge and lonely land. Yet these folk were happy. She wondered briefly if her own viewpoint were pos sibly askew. She knew that she could not face such prospect except in ut- ter rebellion. Not now. The bleak peaks of the Klappan rose up before her minds eye, the picture of five horses dead in the snow, the wolves that snapped and snarled over their bones. She shuddered. She was stfff pOnderlng this when she and Bill dis mounted at home.

he tried to steal your baby, would
the veneer of civilization stand the
