hHeBt, Perfection St0Ve Company
I IKE a great many women,
IL Mrs. Alden was inclined to
resent the interference of any
outsider into her kitchen affairs.
Her kitchen was her own; and
while she attended the meetings
of the Kitchen Club, and was glad
to give suggestions, she decided
to make her improvements with
out calling the Club in.
However, when the Job was
done, Mrs. Alden invited the Club
in to see it; for, after all, she had
been inspired to dress up her
kitchen by seeing what was done
for other women.
"Girls," she said to the Kitch-
en- Clubbers before they went in
to look at it, "My kitchen might
not suit anybody else in the world
but me. But I have made it re-
mind me of the thing I love most
the sea-and now it makes me
happier just to go into it. I was
born on the coast of Maine, as
you may know, and I never got
over missing the water with its
marvellous blue and green and
white. Come and see how I have
reproduced it in my kitchenl"

ChiIdren's Day Dreams

Authorities on health matters and

to pass over lightly and dismiss the
subject of children's day dreams.

vivid imaginations of their children.

with four-year-old youngster who
insisted that her grandmother was
dead, and then philosophical opti-
mistically in order to lessen the

RefniShine Furniture

Mrs. Alden did all her furniture
herself, and it looks like a profess
sional's job. She gave us these direc-
tions for using lacquer on old pieces:
Clean the surface. Sandpaper, if
furniture has had glossy finish. Wipe
off with cloth saturated in benzine,
gasoline or alcohol. Wait until sur
face dries. Brush lacquer on lightly;
for a heavy stroke will soften any re-
naming varnish on the piece, and
make it "bleed through. Three coats
of lacquer should be used, and more
if you wish more satiny surface
than the three coats give. Do your
painting in a room away from the
fire, or outdoors if the weather per-
mits. Lacquer dries almost instantly
but should be aired before using

70 the Editor Of st. CroiU Avi8"
Dear Mr.. Editor, A. regards the
Bapdstand affair referred to ~ your pa
per OF Tuesday and Wednesdays date
| and others are also of the opinion that
it should be locked and the key placed in
the Police Office until it is needed. as
there is no reason why a MUSIC pavilion
should be used for anything else but for
the purpose for which it was built, but
on special occasions, such as Fourth OF
July celebrations etc, / is quite feasible
that it could be used as a rOstrum tor de-
llyering addresses etc, but it should not
be used as a playhouse for children and
for people to 60 in at nights to misbe.
have themselves. The Police should
have authority to keep EVERYBODY
OFT Of the bandstand, unless when band
concerts or other special business call
anyone there. Let the people seek shelter
under the galleries from rain and sun,
as was done in the time when we had no
bandstand. There should be somebody
to see that the bandstand and benches
in the public park be kept in a proper
manner as in other places where there is
a park policeman. If it is necessary |
will return to this subject at some future
time. but | hope it will not be necessary.
as everybody will be glad to see things
set right IN our park where many per-
sons go after their days work to seek
fresh air. and listen to the band con-
certs at evening time.

Early Hydroairplanes

The idea of hydroairplane, which
had been suggested in patent specifi-
cations by Hugo Matullath of New
York in 1899, had its practical origin
in Curtiss, who added to the airpIane
with which he was experimenting at
Lake Keuka in 1908 floats placed un-
der each wing so that in case of acct
dent the machine would not sink, but
could be reached and saved readily
with boat. In fact, it will be re-
called that Langley and other In
yentors for like reasons made their
experimental flights over bodies of wa
ter. Probably the first to add the
floats as an integral part of the ma
chine with the express idea of rising
from the surface of the water was
Fabre, who on March %, 1910, made
the first flight with a practical hydro
airplane at Martigues on the Seine,
France.

households owned some, and by the
time the empire was well established
glass was fairly common. The famous
mosaics of the later empire, notably
at Ravenna and Constantinople, were
made largely out of bits of glass.

Whatever may have been a mans

HUNTS WHITE BIRD
IN NEWFOUNDLAND
Explorers Seek Lost Plane of
Nungesser and Coli.

Baltimore, Md.-Dr. James A Ny
degger, who has had considerable ex-
perience in exploring in NewfOund-
land, will lead a party afoot In an ex-
ploration trip to the tablelands Of the
island, in search of traces of the
plane of Nungesser and Coli, who
were lost while attempting the first
westward fight of the Atlantic.
Confident that Nungesser's plane,
the White Bird. spanned the Atlantic,
only to meet disastrous head winds
and be forced off her course. as was
the Bremen, Doctor Nydegger says he
will explore every mile of the interior
of the island. He said:
my impression is that they crashed
against tall trees or mountain while
lost In fog. There were a dozen re-
ports that persons had heard their
motor along the coast. The Guggen-
helm foundation spent thousands Of
dollars searching from the air for
traces of their plane, but If they were
lost In the tablelands the wreck
could not be seen from the air.
1.-THE White Bird would disappear
from sight like a baseball In grass
three feet high. With two or three
trusted guides will follow the Grand
Codary river into the dense woods Of
the island.
81 will send the guides back and
forth across the island, crossing and
recrossing until every mile of unex-
pIored territory is covered. | am con-
fident l will find traces of them
'While hold out no hope that they
are alive, believe we will find their
wrecked plane. 1t is a little over a
year since their brave attempt to fly
from France to America failed, and
it Is not too late TO make final
search.
"Nungesser's mother has always
maintained that somebody will find
the White Bird. 1 hope that will be
the fortunate man."
