THE DAILY NOVELETTE,
SQUIRTING NANCY
BY MRS. o. HENRY

NANCY BARTON was the most popu-
~ lar girl in Millville. Everyone la ack-
knowledged the fact. IT'S no wonder"
said Lucy West, rather enviously It

they walked down the street together

is by ,'squring Nancy around. You

the trim little car that was fast dis

Too Much Fun
Il really hardly have "A chance to
get acquainted with some of my
friends" said Nancy to herself when
Phil Desmond had brought the little
car to her door and gone back to his
desk at the bank. Mother always

mother just does all this to make
things pleasant for me, and this is how

And Nancy went upstairs to pack her
trunk. for she was leaving that evening
for the home of one of her school
friends to be maid of honor at her
wedding.

mother when she was all ready. "espe-

Mallory with n shrug.
lnwardly Jerry was rather staggered
by what his informant told him SO

extent of saying stoutly:

cynical attitude toward the voters of

In the wheat fields and meadows the

Suddenly the sky grew dark. Th'
bugs and beetles began to seek shelter
under leaves. Night crawling worms
swept down upon the earth, swinging
lower and lower. IT'S going to be an

And it was-for them. All at once
they saw that the shadow was alive,
terribly alive, for it was made up of
thousands and thousands of hungry
birds, every one of them pest

tremendous appetite.
Farmer Dalton's house stood upon
a hill. From here Peggy watched the
attack of the birds upon the food
Huns. Above her Circled and
swooped General Swallow. who fairly
quivered with energy as he directed
the work of his forces. Messengers
were constantly coming, bringing re.
ports and carrying away orders.
Peggy marveled at the way in which
he had organized his feathered army.
There were companies of swallows

came fluttering along al the head af
a battalion of owls and night hawks.
Each company had it's own work
to do. Bob White led his quail into
the potato patch where they fell upon
the bugs most voraciously. The kill.
deers went after grasshoppers, weeviIs,
May beetles and white grubs. The
robins attacked cutworms, digging
them out from their hiding places in
the ground. The rose breasted gros.

WHILE the car was humming up the

passed between us three. Captain
Mackenzie leaned back preoccupied with
his thoughts. 1t was too dark to see
anything more than the arcs of our

chauffeur in front But when at last
we topped the downs, and were nearing

said. BE sure of that"
"Henschel!" ! said, astonshed

GLASS STAINED BY x-RAYs
Experiments Have Shown These Pro- dues tho Same Effect as the
 Light of the Sun.

It Is well known that glass exposed for long to sunlight acquires violet tint. In very old houses the windows facing south are often distinctly vio- let. Experiments recently made in the laboratories of the General Electric company at Schenectady with X-rays prove that these can be used to dye glass In many, colors, principally an amethystine violet and an amber vel low, but also green and bright yellow.
 These colors, according to MT. Ro- senthal, who conducted the experi- ments, are due to notifications of the physical structure of the glass and not to chemical alterations. The color can be- made to penetrate to any desired depth, from a mere surface tint to complete coloratiOn of the entire sub stance. And the same method can be applied to tlnting porcelain, enamel and precious stones.
 An interesting and Important fact about this glass that has been cnlOred by long exposure to X-rays is that it becomes mpervious to the radiatiOns that have transformed 1t. Thus it can be used as a protection against the glare of the sun or the snow and against the X-rays themselves.
