TRAFFIC SIGNAL ON SPRINGS.

The frequent destruction of boulevard crossing lights by motor ists has led to the development of a traffic signal on springs, says the Popular Mechanics Magazine in an illustrated article. The new signal post stands over a cavity or box set below the surface. sAt the top of the box are four arms with spring bearings. On these rest a cast iron ball ten inches in diameter. A heavy spiral spring connects a ring at the bottom of the box with an- other on the ball. The post, whicL is made of sheet metal, is rjveted to the ball. "Slow Down" and ''Stop" signs are set into the side in red glass. Lights inside the pole make it conspicuous at night. Street names appear at the top.

CLOCK FOR AIRCRAFT.

The air service of the War depart ment has developed a new and pc culiar kind of clock, to be carried on airplanes. It is 'built like a watch," having a watch movement, and is wound by electricity, being connected with a small storage bat tery.
 Hitherto it has been found diff cult to get a clock to do satisfactory work on a plane. The vibration made the timepiece unreliable, and it's accuracy was further affected by aaanges of temperature with alti- tpde.
 The new clock, thanks to certain compensation" arrangements, keeps good time at any temperature from 90 below zero to 15O above, and vi- bration does not bother it. Tests made by the bureau of standards have given it a full indorsement.- Philadelphia Ledger.

 Hazel remained standing beside the corral gate. Suddenly she was con- scious of a great weariness With dragging steps she returned to the house. When she returned to the kitchen, there was man standing in the middle of the room. Nothing had the power to surprise | her now. She would not have been amazed had the devil himself popped into the room. The man turned at her entry. He was Rafe Tuckleton

 You're so scared of me, you can't hardly breathe" he said calmly. T don't like III girls to be scared of me. so you can just get you another plate and cup and saucer and sit down there on the other side of the table and eat your supper with me-"
 To eat supper with her unce's mur- derer! Here was grotesque jape of fate. It was unthinkable. Absolutely. The man divined something of what was passing in her mind.
 Al in the line of business, IT girl" he said, with a backward jerk of his head toward the front room where ha had killed her uncle. T didn't have a thing against him personally"
 There were dishes here on the table," she babbled hysterically. "They found them here after-after showing how he'd fed you first, and"
 Sure he fed me-" he interrupted. T was hungry, hungrier than I am now. Ala same, you gotta eat sup per with me-"
 He twisted her wrist to emphasize his wish. She uttered little moan. Don't! Oh, don't hurt me any more! I'll do what you want"
 Beaten. body and soul, she went to the cupboard and got herself plate and and saucer, knife and fork and spoon.
 She sat down opposite the man and tried to eat. It required every atom of will power to induce her throat muscles to permit her to swallow. Dan Slike watched her with savage satisfaction. He found the situation intensely amusing. To murder her

 You're liar," he told her prompt 1y. Dan Sike didn' come this way. He-he went another way You've had Bill Wingo here, that's whatsamat- ter"
 She said nothing. Billy Wingo! He had loved her--once. What a queer, queer world it was. Everybody and everything at cross- purposes. Yet there was a reason for it all. Must be. Even a reason for Rafe. She looked up at Rafe. He was glaring down at her with most villainous express sion on his lean features.
 Say, whatsa use of lyin' to me :? You're an odd number, by all ac- counts but you ain't so odd you could sit here and eat and drink and carry on with your uncle's murderer You can't tell me that.' She was regarding him with curi- ous eyes. T thought you always said Dan Slike didn't kill my uncle?"
 "Well-uh-you see. everybody else seems to think he did. And--ah- maybe l was wrong.
 You had Bill Wingo here, and we'll settle this Wingo business right now. This Tip O'Gorman murder has queered him for keeps. Sooner or later he'll hang for it. You'd look fine wouldn't you, the widow of a."
 Don't say it," she cut him short. Billy Wingo is no murderer. How ever, you can set your mind at rest. I'm not likely to marry Billy Wingo, or anybody else"
 His eyes, savage and mean, held hers steadily. T come over here, to- night to get you. I'm taking you back with me tonight to my ranch"
 You're taking me to your ranch!" she gasped. "Me?"
 He nodded. You, nobody else"
 She laughed harshly without a note of hysteria. You're two hun dred years behind the times. Men don't carry off their women any more"
 Now for the first time she smelt his breath. It was rank with the raw odor of whiskey. So that was what had given him the wild idea of carry ing her off by force. The man was drunk. Sober, he was bad enough. Drunk, he was capable of anything. She reached stoveward for the lid Hitter. Rafe seized her wrist and jerked her sidewise.
 He was striving to kiss her and she, face crushed against his rough shirt, fought him like the primeval female every woman becomes in like circum- stances. Her right hand clawed up- ward at his face. Her left arm, doubled between their two bodies, she strove to work free so that she could grab his gun.
 Rafe received three distinct claw ings that considerably altered the ap- pearance of one side of his face, be- fore he was able to confine those &C., tive fingers.
 "Here!" he bawIed in a fury. "I'll fix you!"
 He tried to seize her by the throat
