Do Jokes Improve With Age?

 If by improve" I mean improve Tn commercial value, l must answer my self in the affirmative. Go to any musical comedy or farce and you VIII be assured, that I am right.

The Airplane Lubricant
From the St. Nicholas.

 The war found brand-new use for castor oil. and lifted the humble castor bean, from which it is derived, to po- sition Of great importance in the com mercial world, and the department of ag- rfculture has been endeavoring to in- duce American farmers to undertake the cultivation of the plant.
 The highly refined 6il made from this bean has been proved, by numerous ex- periments, to be the only lubricant cap able of meeting all the requirements of aeronautical engines.
 The propellers of the aircraft are turned at far greater number of revo- .lutions a minute than the engine of an automobile. At every impulse stroke there is developed. by the explosion os the gas within the cylinder of the air and this intense heat will consume most mineral oil lubricants, impairing the proper functioning of the motors power transmitting parts.
 If this high temperature burns up the lubricatng oil or thins it out so that it no longer furnishes the required anti frctional film between contiguous metal surfaces. then the pistons and other parts become overshot, .Texpand and jam. and the engine stalls, endangering the life of the pilot.
 Tt is not merely a question of supply ing lubricant that will stand up under |the internal stresses imposed -by the ex- plosive mixtures within the engine cylin- ders, but it is equally essential that the oil maintain it's body at al irrmcs ano flow freely through the distributing sys- tenn. whatever be the temperature of the enveloping atmosphere The thermometer at the ground may mark the heat of a summer day, and, yet aloft the airman may be working in rarefied air consider ably below the freezing point. The Iuori- cant must not congeal; it must circufate freely from the reserve tank, feed stead fly into the pistons and valves, and do it's work without hitch.
 "As soon as the war began, it was quickly seen that airplanes would play a large part in it; so chemists and me- chanical engineers went to work to dis cover, if possible. lubricant which would meet the requirements of airplane motors. as most of the ordinary machine lubricants proved unsatisfactory under the rapid changes in temperature and air pressure. ~ X

Modern and Sanitary Facilities Complete at Ranger
 Factory

It has been said that cleanliness is next to godliness. With that idea in mind, comes the thought that with one s outward appearance well taken care of, aud persons stomach well satisfied a man is capable of doing the best that is in him.
 There are many large employers or labor who have had these facts brought home to them and who have learned by years of experience that the better con- dition workman keeps himself in, the more contented he is and the better work he will do
 With this idea in mind, the Southern Motor Manufacturing Association, Ltd. has installed at it's main plant in Hous- ton, where the famous Ranger trucks and tractor-cultvators arc manufac- tured the most approved sanitary facili- ties for keeping clean.
 This includes hot and cold running water for washing purposes. pure arte- sian water, ice-cooled, for drinking pur- poses, constantly bubbling from sanitary fountains, and all other comforts in this respect that one could desire.
 The washroom, located in corner of one of the modern brick units at the plant, is as clean as Spotless Town. The porecla in-lined wash bowls have been in- stalled, with constantly flowing hot and cold water, sanitary soap containers and with even more towels than n.sa can use.
 Adjoining the washroom arc complete ly equipped shower baths, of the most approved style The employees are given ample time to use the showers, Whlcn they find most invigorating, especially during the heated spell.
 Visitors to the plant have frequently remarked on the excellent type of men employed there, their evident appreciaa- ton of their surroundings and the inter- est shown in their work. After inspect i.r the excellent facilities provided Tor their physical welfare. the universal opinion is that no wonder the Worknen appear sol contented.
 With toilet and washing facilities much more modern and sanitary than are to be found in the, average middle-clasS home and in fact equal to the facilities of many first-class hotels it is no woli- der that the employees of the Southern Motors are thoroughly satistled anu contented with the arrangements plo yided for their well-being.
 There are many large employers oi labor that could well emulate the eX- ample set by the Southern Motors Man ufacturing Association, Ltd, in this re- spect. It is dividend payer ill more than dollars and cents, for contentea and well-cared-for employees are val uable asset in these days of agitatlon and labor difficulties.

 This e the outline of. story that was sprung al an actors benefit last winter and, as I was told by one of those present the audience-a prfes- sional one at that-laughed for several minutes without stopping. The same stroy told by the same comedian the popular favorite, Ed Wynne, is, I am informed, one of the biggest laughs in a piece that ran for months on Broadway, and yet it was printed and reprinted by newspapers all over the country as much as six years ago.
 The moral is, don't be afraid of "chestnuts."

 Philadelphia. Pa--Do you wear glasses ! Are you victim of eye strain other eye weaknesses? If so. you will be glad to know that according to sDr. Lewis there is real hope for you. He says neglect causes more eye troubles and poor sight than any other one thing: Many whose eyes were failing say they had their eyes restored through the principle of this wonderful free prescription. One man says after trying it.: T was almost blind: could not seesto read at all. Now can read everything without any glasses and my eyes do not water any more. At night they would pain dreadfully; now they. feel fine all the time. It was like a miracle to me- A lady who used it says: 'The atmos- phere seemed hay with without glasses. but after using this prescription for fifteen days everything seems clear. can even read fine print without glasses" It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them in a reasonable time and null 6iAan1ss more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared the trouble and ex-
