The EIxIna Era.

Mail-carrying airplanes are already
an old story, writes A. Russell Bond,
in Inventions of the Great War;" In
Europe the big bombing machines are
being used for passenger service be-
tween cities. There is an air line
between Paris and London. The air
planes carry from dozen to as many
as so passengers on single trip. In
some cities here, as well as abroad,
the police are being trained to fly, so
that they can police the heavens when
the public takes to wings. Evidently,
the flying era is here.

The Reading Habit.

There are some persons who are SO
fortunate as to be unable to tell when
they formed the habit Of reading; who
find it a constant and ever-increasing
advantage and pleasure. There are
men and women In the world whose
youth and age are so bound up in the
reading habit that If questioned as to
its first inception and probable end,
could only reply, like Dimple-chin and
Grizzle-face, In Mr.. Stedman's pretty
poem of ''Toujours Amour" ASK some
younger lass than I";"Ask some older
sage than l." Happy are those whose
early surroundings thus permit them
to form the reading habit unconscious

Your government asks you very ear
nestly not to sell your Liberty Bonds
unless you have to. To part with your
Liberty Bonds means giving up your
pledge Of patriotism and citizenship,
and handing your responsibilities and
privileges over to some one else. LIB
erty Bonds will be worth much more
money presently and 1t is good busi-

If you must sell, get the full market
