TEST FOR ROPE.

Rope and binder Irvine are made
from hard fibers, such as manila,
sisal and New Zealand hemp, manila
being the best for various reasons,
especially its resistance to mildew.
No test has been known whereby the
purchaser might be certain Of what
he was buying. Mr.. G. E. SWEET Of
Arthur D. Little, Inc, recently dis
covered a method of determining
this with certainty, and the test has
been adopted by the United States
bureau of standards. It consists in
freeing the rope from oil, soaking it
for 20 seconds in a solution Of
bleaching powder calculated with
acetic acid, rinsing in water, then in
alcohol and exposing for minute tc
ammonia fumes. Manila fiber turns
russell brown, all other rope fibers
cherry red.-Safety Engineering.

eRaGREs HARD TO coNTRor
Maximum Discharge Of Panama RIs1r
Has Been Certified at 720 Times
the Minimum.

The lowest stage of the Chagres
river at Alhajuela during the 1918
dry season was reached ON April z,
s, 8 and 10. The minimum mo-
mentary discharge was 466 cubic feet
a second, at q surface elevation Of
Oils feet.
In every year of the past ten years
except 1910 the lowest stage of the
Chagres has been reached some time
during the month of April. The av-
erage date of the lowest flow has
been April 10.
The least momentary flow on rec
ord at Alhajuela is $50 cubic feet a
second, which occurred ON April 20
and Fl, 1912. Compared with the
greatest momentary discharge Of
record, 100000 cubic feet. a second,
on December &c, 1909, it will be
seen that the maximum momentary
discharge of record at Alhajuela is
720 times as great as the absolute
minimum flow on record at this sta
ton.
The maximum river height at
Vigia was 1880 feet on December
26, 1909. The minimum river height
at Vigia is approximately 126 feet.

WARS EFFECT ON BIRDS.

The possible effects of the war on
bird life are being viewed with much
concern. Even in the British isles
tens of thousands of acres have been
denuded of woods and forests, and it
is believed a great reduction in in
sectivorous birds must result, with
plaques of insects for years to come.
Exposed to the severity of the last
two winters, great numbers Of
warblers, fycatchers and other small
birds have persisted.

BETTER LET CHILD CHOOSE
Writer In Mothers Magazine Gives
Advice as to Treatment Of the
Small People.

Mantha G. Nichols makes strong
plea In Mothers Magazine to allow
the child to choose between right and
wrong:
Don't make me do Il, mamma, let
me do IT," pleaded little fellow one
day when his mother was trying to ex-
ercise rather arbitrary authority.
A small boy was objectlng to doing
m crrand for his mother. She said
pleasantly: II can manage If you do
not do It. but | can get my work out
Of the way much sooner If you do.
Surprising | let YOU choose whether
You will accommodate me, or accom-
modate you. I'll say nothing more
about this, and you may do just what
You think 1t Is fair for Il boy to do by
Ids mother" II did not take long for
the son to choose the better way, and
to walk of proud of his independent
action.
CoaXing II child to do what he
ought to Is Il questionable policy, yet
in II dignifed, matter-offact manner
to show him that you give him credit
for COMMON sense and fair amount
OF nmabillty and right purpose is to
encourage him to use those qualities.
1t helps him to do his best In the best
possible wayne chooses his own nc.
ton, and he can choose again.
