alive the traditions and customs of their

the writer enlisted the services of Joseph
T. Bordas and Peter Borras, two we'll

the result that instead of there being
ten or twelve restaurants supplying food
prepared in the style of foreign coun-

sixty-odd.

fathers were sheiks gather nightly to

who learned their art in Arabia.
The food here is Of a peculiar nature,
but very palatable and well seasoned,
and is usually topped of with des-
sert that is far sweeter than that usually
found on the table Of the American
household. The coffee is made and
served In vessels similar to those used
by the Turks. It's consistency is not

Do Yeu Sway When

sists OF an indicator fixed to the head.
which, when # moves, automatically
records all anterior. posterior or lat

He found that practice with the
apparatus made but little difference
in the capacity to stand steady; that
the amount Of sway recorded varied
inversely with the efficiency OF the
neuro-muscular mechanism, and that
1t was greater with the eyes shut than
open. Tall persons with small feet
tend to sway more than short ones
with broader feet, but many more
observations are needed to establish
a normal for persons differing in stature
and weight

Lights Under Water.
uuAvE you got a match?" woul

"HAvH you got a match'" would
seem a singular question under
water, yet Paris inventor has found
q way to strike light even there,
writes Francis P. Mann in the Scien-
tito American. II you should ask
him what 1t is that can be lighted
under water he would say that gas
pressure torches are now made to
burn Under water. Such are, in fact,
the oxyacetylene torches which are
sunken vessels by their great heat.
The great pressure of the gas pre-
vents the water from putting out the
fame, for 1t cannot reach the burner.
But It may happen, Of course. that
the fame would go out by accident.
and the diver would then be obliged
to come up to the surface. With the
new match" he stays below and
lights his torch. Certain metals, such
as potassium and others, when placed
under water will set up a violent re-
action accompanied with heat or even
flame. But other substances can be
added which will aid in producing the
flame, and Is the proper mixture Is
packed into a small brass tube about
the size Of a cigarette and provided
with a stopper. all that is required
when working under water is to pull
out the stopper and allow the water
to enter the tube, and the mixture
then commences to burn amid the out
rushing gas from the torch. SO that
we have exactly the same result as If
a match had been applied above
ground.
A spring fixture holds the tube and
also pulls 1t back out Of the way OF
the torch fame when not In use.
