To Make Flyers Invisible.
MUNYON'S LABORATORIES
54th and Columbia Ave. Dill. ?

Many efforts are being made to make
the airplane invisible from the earth
when it is soaring through the ether.
One idea calls for the use of transpar-
ent material, at least for all purposes
where canvas covering is used at
present, such as the wings and the
fuselage. One of the latest ideas of
the kind is said to be an airplane which
uses noninfiammable celluloid for the
wings and other parts, and when fly
ing at few hundred feet elevation
the apparatus is quite invisible. ac-
cording to reports. A new mufflins
box on the motor serves to deaden the
sound. One advantage Of the transpar-
ence is that observations can be made
in all directions.

and despair. Unless we believe that
wrong is going to triumph over right

injustice is going to triumph over
righteousness, unless we believe that
God is Knocked, unless we believe that
the wheat of the kingdom is going to
produce harvest of tares, unless we
believe that Calvary was n vain sac

feated in his good purposes. we can

But most of all am thankful that

rest of thinking humans, am witness
Of the birth of new code for nations,
a code so deep, so high, so filed
with justice that one must believe the

Her gaze wandered up the meadow

Then she turned. as though some one
had touched her elbow, and started
back wonderingly.

He hurried up the path and lifted
the heavy knocl1er, but no one an

door and walked in.
"Mrs. Tetlow." he called. hut the
loud tick of the clock alone responded.
Finally sleepy cat emerged from the
kitchen and rubbed against his leg.
DR.. Clifford struck, a match and
lighted lamp that stood on the hail
table. Then he passed into the sit
tingroom. The fire in the alright
stove had gone out and the room had
grown cold. Through half-onen door
he could see dimly long table. laid
for many guests, but no plate had been
disturbed.
The doctor raised the lamp above
his head and turned toward the front
window. In the high-backed rocker a
slender. motionless figure leaned back
among the cushions, hut the old house
was wrapped in peaceful stiffness:
for with a wonderful smile upon her
white lips. Mrs. Tetlow had gone forth

O'Clock the old woman took bed
room candle in either hand and toiled
up the creaking stair. On the little
stand beside each bed she placed a
brass candlestick, and, having turned
back the sheets, went out again, MUIR
muring soft goodnight"
Mrs. Tetlow arose at dawn, and be-
fore 1t was time to prepare breakfast
she had dressed her turkey and set it
aside, ready for the oven.
About nine o'clock she began to lay
her table.
Having smoothed out every wrinkle
In the cloth, she gathered all her ge-
ranium blossoms and put them in the
center of the table in glass bowl
Then the silver, which had all been
polished the day before, was brought
forth from it's canton flannel wrap
pings, and Great-grandma Tetlow's
blue china was lifted down from the
shelves of the china closet.

lady, surveying the result of her labor
with pardonable pride; land it's right

added with little sigh; 1--WE eaten

but to sit at the front window and
watch for the folks to come. I'll be
eble to see them far up the meadow
road"
A few minutes later she was star
tied by hearing knock at the front
door, and, quite trembling with the
shock, she arose to open it.
Good morning, Mrs. Tetlow." 1t
was Mrs. Clifford, the young doctors
wife, who spoke. Good morning. Mrs.
TetlOw. Isn't this beautiful Thanks
giving day? Madam Clifford is out in
the carriage and she wants to take
you home to have dinner with us.
Please say you'll come; and let me
get your bonnet and shawl for YOU"
Mrs. Tetlow looked down into the
bright young face, with a dreamy hap
piness in her own, as she slowly shook
her head.
you're real good" she said, "and
please tell Madam Clifford I'm just as
much obliged to her, but can't come
today. Pm-I'm looking for company"
There was a ring of tremulous pride
in the old voice that went to the
heart of the young woman. She look
ed up into the wrinkled old face and

and far-off happiness in the old eyes.
Mrs. Clifford remembered it afterward
with sense of awe.
AS she turned to go now she saw,
through the open door, a corner of the
long table, all ready for dinner.
I'm so glad for you. Mrs. Tetloww
she exclaimed impulsively. 81 hope
you will have pleasant Thanksgiving
day." Then she hurried back to her
carriage, and Mrs. Tetlow returned to
her rocking-chair by the window.
They're real late" she murmured
to herself now and then, and a new,
strange WEAKNESS and numbness crept
over her as she sat and waited, her
dim vision still wandering far up the
meadow road.
Suddenly she started forward with
outstretched arms. "Peter!" she cried.

her chair I'm right glad to see you

Preparing for the day,
Peeling apples, cracking nuts
You know the cozy way.
Getting cook books from the shelves,
Her glasses on to see
Receipts for cooking wondrous things,
For her four boys and me.
Thanksgiving morning, when the smells
Of turkey and mince pie,
Began to steam about the house
She breathed happy sigh.
Her four boys now have gone to war,
A proud sigh stirs her breast,
Her service flag sports four bright stars,
The mother bears the test.
