WHAT HE REALLY WANTED
Deep, Dark Design That Was Behind
Mans Encouragement of His
Companions Singing.

Two men were seated at a table In
a saloon, one Of them annoying the
other customers by his maudlin at
tempts to sing something that had a
strong German air, although the words
were apparently English. The pro-
prietor approached.
"Cut out that singing in here" he
demonstrated. '"This amt no anna
teur night for cabarets."
The singer subsidized and took an
other drink, but his companion urged
him to continue, expressing great adj
miration for the air.
what do you mind the likes Of
him for?" he asked. "Sure, it's a fine
song. Go ahead with it."
The resumption Of the disjointed
notes brought the proprietor to the
table again. -....., -..
"See here, you," he began, with a
rap of his knuckles on the table, "cut
that singing right now, or I'll have you
thrown out" Ill.,. .... .s-.~. ~.
Standing not far off to be sure that
the selection was not continued the
proprietor overheard the second man
urging the singer to go ahead and after
another drink the song was resumed
Stepping up to the table with fire In
his eye the boss addressed himself to
the second man. ...ae j..
"Why do you keep asking him to
singY' he demanded. eff you are
so stuck on his singing take him some
where else and listen to it all you
like"
"Singing!'' retorted the other. y
don't care about his singing. want
to see him thrown out" -@a.. p.

New idea in Butter Making.

An emulsor, now being widely intro
duced, produces pasteurized milk or
cream from their component parts
with the aid of centrifugal force. The
machine, which is shown in POpu-
lar Mechanics Magazine, is built some
what like a cream separator. Milk
powder, butter and water, which have
been mixed and heated in steam
jacketed vat, are fed at pasteurizing
temperature into the revolving cham
Der, producing perfect emulsion
from which all foreign matter is elm
mated.

SAVING Wool Rags.

The answer to the question, why
should we save woo1p' is that fully
equipped soldier uses Is times as much
wool as does q civilian. Also that
there are not enough sheep raised to

REAL CAMOUFLACE IS NOW USED TO

PARIS, March 1.-"Camouflage or the art of making a soldier look like a tree, battery of artillery look like a clump of bushes, an ar my headquarters like peacable farm, and a village like few ac- res of pasture land is now said tc have been originated, by Command ant Openhague of the French Army, Experiments were made in October 1912, at theS Camp of Avord, the object then in view being to render troop of infantry invisible to ob- servers in airplanes.
 The success then achieved did not establish the institution because the means employed were so cumber- some and expensive in execution.

The Lava Is Not Liquid in the Crater as Was Pre- vlouSIy Supposed
 Says Expert.
HOW LIVES ARE SAVED
Expert Also Contends That Volcanoes Do Not Act
 as Safety Vents" for EarthuuakeS.

HONOLULU, T. H., Feb. 12.-(By maiD- Volcano research, virtually the youngest branch of the sciences, has already saved many thousands of lives, according to a recent ad- dress by Professor T. A. Jaeger, vol canologist of the Kilaueu Volcano Observatory
 The main object of volcano re search, said Prof Jaeger, is to en- able observers to predict volcano eruptions and earthquakes. Although there is still much to learn, material line, largely through experimental work at the Kilauea Observatory, which is situated on the brink of Halemaumau pit
 Has anyone yet been saved?" the volcanologist asked Most certain ly yes"
 At the West Indies and Agoshima, Japan, and right now in Guatamala City, where destruction of the same kind Hundred and fifty years ago led to improvements; where history has promoted earthquake education; where fresh disaster in 1902 kept fearfully alive the expectations; and now we learn that only few hun dred were killed of population Of 90,O00.
 80 at Kagoshima, Japan; when Sakurajima erupted and the earth quake came, people moved and re turned, and not more than fifty peo- pie were killed; contrast this with the Messina Straits in 1908 with 100000 killed.
 "The lessons of St. Pierre, Mont Pelee with it's rush of 'cauliflower clouds, it's dome of lava and lava danger; the discovery of moving earthquake rifts at --agOya, Japan; the statistics of recurrence, of time, of place, of distribution, topography, and tidal control; the relationships between volcanoes and earthquakes; 1; the marshalling of these facts ac- cording to mathematics of chance, the making of continuous measure ments of changing features as at Kilaueu Observatory-the recognition of all this is not geology but a new science of economy, earth law-these lessons of natural disaster have ere ated a new era in the study of the inner earth"
 Prof Jaeger in course of his 'ad dress said that among other things learned by the observers at Kilauea is that lava is not liquid as was previously supposed but is in reality a hard, red hot body. The steam ing liquid is a foam of burning gases and of glass melted by them. This oxidation heat is mostly near the surface and the deep heat is per haps only moderate.
 The theory that volcanos act as safety vents" making improbable earthquakes, was also denied by Prof Jeager, who said that on the con trary earthquakes are more to be expected in the vicinity of volcanoes and anywhere else.
