the courtyard, he roared: at is now

Whereupon he fell to belaboring the
three poor, weary, hungry, thirsty rascals
with the fiat of his sword, till all OF them
yelled in concert. They were too limp
to resist or even to run, and he had his
way with them until Sabray and Rogue
lin howled with laughter. At last
ordered him to stop, and to confine the
men in chamber, where they should be

away moaning, driven like cattle by
Blaise, who promised them as they went
that they should not be put to the

"You are still disturbed by Marianne's

watched all these years wac an old
man.
Jose hurried back to the place where
he had left White Pussycat, followed
by the pretty girl.
1t was growing light as they came
to the spot where White Pussycat sat
waiting. She looked questioningly at
the pretty girl, but Jose said: "She
was one more of the victims OF the
cruel magician, and you see / have
learned the magic word, for she is
free and has her own form again"
Unlocking the box he handed il to
White Pussycst, telling her the magic
word, and for the last time he beheld
White Pussy, for as she looked and
spoke the charmed word her own
beautiful form returned. and there
stood the Princess Olga, the lost Princess,
before Jose.
He did not need to be told it was
the Princess, for she looked it from
| the crown of her golden head to the
| tips of the tiny pink satin slippers, AND
as he looked into her pretty blue eyes
Jose knew he had found the girl be
wanted for his wife.
Just as the sun came up the three
visitors left the enchanted forest. They
found at the entrance the big white
birds asleep, just as Jose had left
them.
Taking the mirror from its box
Jose waved it in front of the sleeping
birds and repeated the magic WORD

WHY?
Why Does Vacuum Bottle Keep
Things Hot or CoId3
Copyright. 1920 by
Wheeler Syndicate. Inc

Since time immemorial men have
been seeking a device which would
retain the heat or the coolness In
liquids. but, despite several inventions
which approximated the desired re-
suit, it was only of late years that
the use of the vacuum bottle has sue
ceeded in approaching the goal. Even
savages, however, have been familiar
with the principles Of the water
monkey porous bottle which cools
by evaporation due TO draft-and the
fact that articles wrapped in a blanket
or some other heavy covering viii re-
tain their low or high temperatures
considerably longer than If exposed
to the air.
It is this latter device that really
explains the operation of the vacuum
bottle, a container made in two sec
tions with space between from which
the air has been extracted. If the
substance which we desire to keep
cold were to be placed in the interior
bottle or container and this was then
wrapped in a newspaper, a blanket or
some other poor conductor of heat,
the substance would remain at low
temperature for several hours because
the heat would find difficulty in pener
trating the covering. Precisely the
same thing occurs when we wrap this
bottle in or surround it with a
vacuum, only the result is achieved
for greater length of time, owing
to the fact that heat cannot jump
over or pass through a vacuum-need-
ing air TO assist 1t in making it's
journey. If the vacuum We're abso-
lutely perfect, that is If there were no
air whatever in the space, substances
placed in the interior container would
remain hot or cold for an indefinite
period. However, a perfect vacuum
is extremely difficult 10 attain, which
accounts for the gradual change liz
temperature of the contents of a
vacuum bottle"
