Plane That Is All Wing.

A system of airplane construction
which is being developed and particu-
larly adapted to large craft appears
on its face not only interesting but
plausible and practical, provided the
location of the weight is not detrimen-
tai, says report by J. Fl. Colwell, pub
lished in the Journal of the Patent
Office Society, Broadly stated the
system comprises hollow plane
merged into the fuselage so that the
large trussed wing spars, the engine
housings and fuel tanks, as well as the
pilot, are inclosed within the lifting
surface itself. The center of the plane
between the upper and lower walls is
deep, while the wings taper to small
depths toward the tips. The entire
machine, including the pilots car, is
practically part of the lighting sur
face, thereby necessitating compare
lively few external wind resisting
parts.

Burro Saw the Point.

One who knows says that some peo-
pie claim that animals can't reason,
but If they were around burros awhile
like he was when he ran a burro train
up in Colorado they'd change their
minds.
One Of the burros fell down in
crossing stream and he was loaded
with sugar, and it took about fifteen
minutes to get him on his feet and his
load didn't weigh more than han as
much when they started out again.
For months afterward that critter
always contrived to fall down when
crossing a stream of water.
1t didn't tighten his load any, for the
driver never trusted him with sugar
any more, but he still had hopes until
they happened to load him with
sponges one day.
That cured him. - Los Angeles

Novel Idea of Aviation

A certain Francis Lana, some two
centuries ago, worked out to his own
satisfaction that vessel, with its air
supply exhausted would sustain itself
suspended in the atmosphere. He pro-
duced such vessel but there is no ev--
idence to show that his scheme was,
ever attempted as an air-machine.
Now women and children can fly
through the air, and that so simply
that the children make pictures Of
their flight, and think no more Of it
than they do Of going by train, or by
boat.

POLISHING Mirrors.

In cleaning mirrors and pictures
great care must be taken that no wa
ter seep under the glass. Water will
ruin the back Of a mirror and blister
the picture.
Perhaps the safest way to polish
and clean these glasses is TO use a
damp channels skin. Wiring the cha
nois as dry as possible out Of warm
water, rub the glass until perfectly
clean and dip the chamois into clean
water and again wiring dry. Rub the
glass the second time and polish with
paper If necessary, but it won't be.
This way Of cleaning mirrors and pic
lures does not endanger the frame in
any way and Is very satisfactory.

Civ That IA Farmers Friend.

There is a general prevailing opin-
lon among farmers that cut worms
make horse flies. This is erroneous.
Gut worms and army worms are some
times parasitized by large Tachinid
flies which, TO the casual observer,
somewhat resemble the horse fly. The
Tachinid fly is beneficial insect and
is one of natures means of controlling
the army and cut worms.

A Championship?

What does it mean? How much is
Il worth to the possessor? Doesn't
1t spell happiness?
1t can truly be said hat a title in
the boxing doesn't bring happiness.
No ooner is a crown won than
the public weighs the new stranger
on the sensitive and ever-changing
scales of popular opinion. 1t goes
into his past. 1t sizes him up as
he Is now. Not content with this
it maps out his future destinies.
A new circle of friends soon sur
round him. Some Of these are
genuine. Most of them are of the
morning glory variety.
Also there are the wolves who bark
at every move the champion makes.
They wonder if he Is the goods.
They doubt If he Is on the level. They
criticize him If he doesn't defend his
title. They pan him for boxing con-
tenders, considered easy marks.
If he gets big purses the public
howls its disapprova1. If he doesn't
get big money they say he is being
poorly managed.
Yet a world title Is the goal of
them all. 1t Is the key to the. big
money. 1t "a demand yellow gold
in advance. 1t can dictate terms,
times n places.
Look them over-Dempsey, Will

Jack DEMPSEY Still Ring Tiger;
LdyOf Didn't SlOW Him DOWn

but that's as far as e counts.
Ben knows his business and does
Lounging Hours.
After the rundown Jack has a
little time of his own. There is
a plum tree in the yard and you'll
find the worlds heavyweight
champion out there perched on a
Limb a good many times every day.
Neighboring children have all
been made his close friends and
conidants. They like the plums
that Jack shakes down for them,
but they like him, too. He has
always had a great way OF attract
ing children to him.
The intervening time before he
does his ring work is taken up by
reading the papers. a light lunch
at noon, a game of solitaire,
sometimes a nap and perhaps a
spin to the downtown headquar-
ters in Promoter F1tzsimmons' big
red roadster.
Rushes Everything.
His training ring is just in front
of the ball park grandstand. He
boxes at $3.50. Miske works out at
$3.50 at Ike Berstein's quarters,
about three-quarters of a mile UP
the road. 1t is arranged this way
so that the crowds can see both
Miske and Dempsey get in battle
form. The fans rush from n camp
to another trying to get the inside
dope on the match.
All the while Dempsey is work
ing he rushes everything-first
the punching bag. then his SPAR
ring partners. and then finishes

Of old Sal" the 250-pound leather

He goes three rounds with both
Tate and Cans. Dempsey uses the
towering form of Tate for body
punching practice. but he also takes
some pretty stiff smacks from Tate's
powerful swings. That toughens
him up and he likes it. Cans
weighs about 14S pounds. Demp-
sey has to speed up to keep the
Panama boy away from him.
Ideal Workouts.
This combination of ~sparring
partners is almost ideal, for it gives
him a workout for both punching
and fast smuggling.
Harry Greb. who boxes Marty
Farrell on the same Labor Day
card, completes Dempsey's staff.
Dempsey isn't going to be caught
mapping. He is eager to box all con-
tenders and give them their chance
without favor or exception.

as he was when he socked Willard

Of pitiful helplessness cannot be as

his belt before he is going top.

BENTON HARBOR. Mich. -
Champion Jack Dempsey is stir the
tiger fighter in the ring and the boy
outside Of it.
II a fourteen months layoff has
made any dieffrence in his fighting
proves II doesn't show in any of
his work as he goes about the
daily routine of training for his
Labor Day mill here with Billy
Miske of st. Paul.
No boxer every got more actual
enjoyment out of fighting than the
present champion. The only
trouble with Dempsey is hat he
has to be held back from over
doing. He tears into his sparring
partners like 1t was a real fight.
Dempsey doesn't know how to
pull his punches. as any of those
who have boxed with him. includ-
ing Jess Willard, will testify.
Rumors that he had grown fat
and soft while making pictures is
without evidence. His exhibition
boxing in New York served to put
him on edge and to swing him
back into his old stride.
His weight varies from two to
three pounds ver 100 pounds.
He says he'll bring it down to 1S7
before Sept. s. There is no APP
parent superhuous fat on his mus
cular body.
He's Toughened.
When asked If he believed he
was as good as when he won the
title. Dempsey thought a little
while before answering.
That is hard to say" he finally
replied. II ought to be-. I'm a year
older now. That ought to tougher
me. / feel stronger, and then I've
developed more around the back
and shoulders.
IF there is any difference in me
now than when / fought at Toledo
1t may be that my eyes aren't quite
as quick perhaps. al they were then.
A fighter has to be going regular in
order to keep his eyes in trim. Miske
is a strong. tough fellow. They a
he is heavier and in better health
than when I boxed him at both St.
Paul and Philadelphia two years
ago. / hope he fights me for those
are the kind of birds 1 like best"
His camp is pitched within a hun
bred yards of the battle arena.
Promoter Floyd Fitzsimmons the
man who. has sunk a cold $780,
900 in his Labor Day card al
ready, has turned over his cottage
to Dempsey and his retinue.
Charley White uesd the same
camp in preparation for his bout
with Benny Leonard.
Likes the Water.
Dempsey drinks a lot of the
Benton Harbor mineral water.
There is a pump at the rear of his
cottage where he gets it fresh and
sparkling from deep down in the
Michigan sands.
He starts the days work with
a five-mile III accompanied by
the ever faithful Bill Tate and
Joe Cans, his colored sparring
partners. The roads are soft and
sandy. The big fellow can't
make much speed. This is the
only feature of the training site
he doesn't like. The sand slows
him up and what he wants most
is speed. He rises at $50. eats a
light breakfast. and goes on the
road at s o'clock.
Ben Smith takes him in tow
after the road work. Ben hasn't
a peer any place. probably. as a
rubber. What he says goes.
Dempsey may make suggestions
as to how he wants things done,
