Ageo Aviation Devotee.

Frances younger generation has
been encouraged to use air locOmo'
ton by an old lady of eighty-three
says a Paris correspondent of the
London Times. She is Nine. Hemery,
a charwoman, who lives in the coun-
try, where airplanes pass every day.
1t was in 1878 when she first left the
ground, when she tasted the delights
of ballooning, and, seeing, as she did,
the new airbird daily above her, she
could not resist trying the new SEN
sation. Thus one day she had saved
sufficient money from her meager
earnings and took a trip in the air.
She did this without the knowledge
of her many grandchildren, who were
completely shocked when the news
reached them. She is in no way per-
turbed and is determined as soon as
funds allow to try looping the loop.

FIJI Fountain Pen Without Dropper.

How can the fountain pen be filled
without having a dropper handy? A
man does not usually carry a dropper
with him. But in the crowd at hand
there is likely to be someone who has
a. self-filling fountain pen. If he can
be induced TO lend it for moment the
trick is done, says the Popular Science
Monthly.
Take the self-filling pen and steep it
in ink until it is full. Assure the
owner that no damage will be done to
the point of his valuable self-filler and
permit him to watch the following
performance
Press the lever of the borrowed pen,
and through its point discharge its
contents Of ink into the barrel of your
own pen. Then refill the borrowed pen
and return it.
