PLANTS GET OWN MOISTURE
Ingenious Device That VIII Assuredly

Minded Husbands.

Stay-at home husbands are prone to
forget TO water the flowers that adorn
the sitting room, even though specially
charged to do so by absent wives.
They will doubtless welcome "A device

shape, but having a double wall. The
description runs, according TO the Lit
erary Digest:
The space between the two walls
constitutes a reservoir of water. Into
this there extends two TO four curved
tubes. according TO the shape Of the
pot. Each of these tubes contains q
wick. The lower end Of the tube dips
into the reservoir OF water while the
other end 10 bent so as to dip beneath
the surface OF the soil In the inner
pot. Consequently we really have q
set Of siphons which are set in action
by the capillary attraction which
causes the water to rise In the wick
Thus there IL a gentle but steady flow
Of moisture TO the plant.
In order to adapt the apparatus to
the needs Of any individual plant II Is
only necessary to remove the inner pot
after the end Of "a hours and note

piled, since the excess Of water has

FOR LOVE, NOT BY PURCHASE
New Attitude Toward Marriage "a
Seen to Be Awakening Among

Closely related with the new home

than family choice; ''for love. not by

Like the new home this will he a
the individual Is not thought of or
looked upon as an entity; he is but n
part OF family which is the unit, the
entity aud which ut all costs must be
preserved and perpetunted. Hence, in
divdual desires must be subsidiary To-
the wishes or the benefit of the family.
The practice u: this principle
throughout the long centuries has in
stilled in children submissiveness To-
parents. Ia family. that Is engulting
of personality. though 1t Is the steel
that gives strength and form 10 III"
structure of the Chinese nation. The

DEMAND FOR cAscARA BARK

it-not knowing just how to properly

been rising is now 10 cents per pound

EASY WAY TO CRACK NUTS
Scientists Recommend Use Of Liquid
Air a. Best Means of Getting
at Detachable Kernel.

Liquid air for cracking nuts is the
latest application Of science. Science
and invention relates that experts at
the national bureau Of standards In
Washington yer appealed to for a
method OF breaking the shells OF
chicha nuts without damaging the
Eernels- They found that 1t took a
weight Of nearly a ton to crack the
shells. and that after that effort the
meat Of the nut was broken in many
small pieces.
Then they applied liquid air to the
problem. They did not freeze solid q
piece of rubber and use 1t as a ham
mer, as is done In the classic stunt Of
physics. but they simply Immersed the
nuts In liquid air for 30 seconds and
cracked them easily without damage
to the kernels. Now the physicists
are trying to find out whether this
method can be applied commercially
on "a large scale.
Chicha nuts are grown In South
America Their dense. strong shells
were used during the war to make
charcoal for gas masks, and the oil
from the kernels is a valuable food
similar to copra.

American silks.

There are some interesting phases
OF the official statistics with reference
to the manufacture OF silk goods in
the United States. particularly those
that have to do with the early history
Of that industry.
It appears that the making Of silk
goods In our country has grown rap
Idly since the year 1850. AT that time
only Is. per cent of the silk used in
the United States was homemade. In
1870 the percentage of home manu-
featured silk had doubled: in 1880
It had become more than so per cent;
In 1890. 20 per cent, while Mt present
1t is estimated to be in excess Of 81
per cent.
