G. r. Blount of the British navy in
an address in opening a missions to

high speed and quick turning and

Refused to "Mother" Chicks

Franklin Hickling, twelve years

five eggs in it at Ludlow, Maine. He
took out three of the eggs and re-
placed them with hen eggs. When
the crow returned, she threw out
the two crow eggs and sat on the
three hen eggs, and after they were
Matched Mrs. Grow sat on limb
and refused to acknowledge the par
entage of the chicks. The lad took
the chicks out and placed them with
another mother, who accepted the

All-Rubber Glider

Flying on rubber wings is the VI
sion of Taylor Mcdaniel, Washing
ton inventor, who is constructing a
glider with which he hopes to DEM
onstrate the practicability of his
idea. 1t is built entirely of air-foated
rubber tubing, there being no steel
or wooden members in its Frame
work. Three hollow rubber tubes
are used for wing spars, and larg-
er rubber tube carries the tail with
rudder and elevator. These tubes,
when properly inflated, did not bend
appreciably when 200-pound man
walked on them, says Popular Sci
ence Monthly.
The inventor believes that his idea
will make safer, cheaper and lighter
planes. His glider, when completed,
will weigh but 125 pounds.

1t was the testimony of the late
James Oliver Curwood that there
was more fact than fiction in this
novel; that the heroine. Marie An
toinette Tonteur, and her fierce old
father lived and loved as described
in the story; that Catherine Bulain
and her valiant son were flesh and
blood of their day; that Tiaoga,
Shlndas, Silver Heels and several
other of the more important char
acters were not creatures of fancy;
that The Plains of Abraham" like
his other tale, "The Black Hunter"
to which 1t is closely related is
largely a romance of life as it was
lived and not as it might have been
lived.
The author also asserted that the
gathering of the material had been
the most thrilling adventure of his
life; the travelling foot by foot over
the hallowed ground. the reading
of letters written by hands dead a
hundred and fifty years or more
the dreaming over yellow manu-
scripts written by priests and mar
tyrs and, lastly. the unveiling of
loves and hates and tragedies and
happiness of the almost forgotten
period embracing the very birth of
both the American and Canadian
peoples, and weighted with happen
ings that shook the foremost ma
tions of the earth and largely made
them what they are today.
The story passes through ro-
mances, adventures and other STIR
ring phases of life in the Cham
plain and Riehelieu regions and
reaches its finale OH the Plains of
Abraham at Quebec, in that historic
struggle which curbed the ambi-
tions of the French, established the
ascendency of the English and drew
the first crude boundaries of the
future United States and Canada.

Little Mary Discovers
Shortcomings of Daddy

Little Mary asks him If he knows
how to cast out mines. He says no,
he never heard of casting out mines,
and what is it? She says it's an
easy way to check long division and
she has learned it at school and it
is very simple, and she will show
him how it is done.
So she does an example in long di-
vision and then begins to cast out
mines. He says yes, that is all very
well but why do you do it? She
says she does not know why you do
it, but that is what you do. He says,
well, there must be some reason and
he would like to know it.
She says there is no use bothering
about the reason, but just try it and
see if he can do it. SO he tries, but
fails. and she tells him that he could
not have been paying attention, and
to listen very carefully this time.
But he finds it rather difficult to con-
centrate, as he keeps on saying to
himself that there ought to be rea-
son for it and he would like to know.
She says, now see if you can do it,
and he tries once more and makes
several mistakes, and she says you
could not have been paying atten-
tion again or you would understand,
as it is so easy.
So she gives up trying to teach him
to cast out mines. But she cannot
help wondering how a person who is
so slow to catch on could have gone
through school and college and even
got degree.-Baltimore Sun.

SO I0nteur was half right in
thinking of him as wreck of
dog, but in one other thing he was
wrong. The dog did have soul
a soul that belonged to the boy, his
master. That soul had a great scar
scared upon it by hunger and abuse
in an Indian camp where Henri Bu-
lain had found him four years be-
fore, and from which, out of pity
for a dying creature, he had taken
him home to Jeems. 1t was a scar
cut deep by clubs and kicks,
wound that had never healed and
that made the dog what he was-a
tireless and suspicious hunter of
scents and sounds in the woods.
OF the four who We're filing west
ward, he seemed to be the only one
who watched and listened for dan
ger to come out of the beauty and
stiffness of the world about them.
Now and then he glanced up at his
master. Trouble lay in the boys
face and eyes, and the dog sensed
it after little and Whined in
questioning way in his throat.
Daniel James Bulain was the
boys name, but from babyhood his
mother had called him Jeems. He
was twelve and weighed twenty
pounds more than his dog. Odds
and-Ends. called Odd for short,
weighed sixty, if the scales in Ton
teur's gristmill were right One
would have known the dog and the
boy belonged together even had
they been in a crowd, for if Odd
was battered old warrior, the boy,
on the other hand, gave every evi-
dence of an ambition to achieve a
similar physical condition.
"Why, he's dressed up like bold,
bad pirate come to abduct my little
girl and hold her for ransom" Ton
teur had roared, down in the val
ley, and Jeems' father had joined
the baron in his laughter; then, to
make the thing worse, Tonteur had
turned him round and round, slowly
and appraisingly, with lovely little
Marie Antoinette looking on, her
dainty nose upturned in patrician
/ disdain-and with Paul Tache, her
detestable cousin from the great
city of Quebec, openly leering and
grimacing at him from behind her
back. And this after he had pre-
pared himself with painstaking care
| for Marie Antoinette's eyes should
she happen to see him! That was
the tragedy of it. He had put on
his new doeskin suit. He carried a
gun which was two inches longer
than himself. A big powderhorn
swung at his waist, in his belt was
a knife, and over his shoulder hung
the most treasured of his posses
sions, a slim ash bow and quiver
! filled with arrows. He had worn
his coonskin cap of fur in spite of
the warmth of the day, because il
looked better than the lighter one
which was striped. and in this cap
was a long turkey feather Odd

ing all the world in the empty open.
In this moment Jeems thought
again of Paul Tache, for the Quebec
boy was like this turkey cock, al
ways Haunting his clothes and dis
porting himself with the Importance
of man.
Slowly Jeems withdrew the long
barreled gun from the top of the log
and tautened the string of his bow.
He waited until the big bird stood
less than eighty yards away. An inch
at a time he rose higher on his
knees, and Odds body grew stiffer
with his movement. A choking
sound came from the dogs throat
as the long bow was bent. The
twang of the string was like the
ring of a steel tuning fork, and
across the open sped a grayish
flash There followed a mellow
sound, a great commoti0n, leap
ing of gorgeous color high into the
air. Paul Tache, the turkey cock,
was down and dying.
A moment later, Jeems and Odd
stood looking down on the turkey
cock. and gladness leapt once more
into the boys face and eyes-for
here was not only splendid dinner
for tomorrow, but also, in his i'm
agnation, the first blow struck
against his enemy.
The wild hot pride of youth and
achievement possessed the lad as
his father and mother came toward
him. Here was triumph, and the
boys eyes lighted up when he saw
his mothers interest in what he had
done, and the unfeigned amazement
in his fathers face as he dropped
his milled corn to the ground and
looked down upon the magnificent
turkey cock with the feathered ar
row transfixing it.
Catherine regarded her boy un-
observed by the two whose hunt
ing instinct drew their eyes to the
fallen game. Her own eyes were
shining, and after moment Henri
saw what she was seeing and think
ing and placed one of his big hands
tenderly on his sons slim shoulder
Yes. Jeems was like his mother eX-
cept for his blond hair and gray
eyes, and in these two things he
resembled his mothers brother, that
worthless, wandering, always fight
ing and forever lovable vagab0nd,
Hepsibah Adams. Henris heart was
happier at his Wife's proud cOntem-
plation of her son, and he burst
forth in praise of the lads exploit.
"What shot r he cried bending
low to examine the bird and the
arrow. Straight through from wing
to wing as clean as a bullet-and
right up to the shaft of the feath-
ers I'd swear you did not have
the strength in your arm, lad Yet
the arrow was sped from back there
at the edge of the open, you say,
scarce believe it 1t is a shot for
Captain Pipe and White Eyes and
Big Cat and not for you'
These three we're the Caughna-
waga Indian friends who had
taught Jeems to shoot, and it was
Captain Pipe who had made his
bow Of choice seasoned ash.
They went on as the sun was set
ting behind the wilderness and the
golden pools of light grew DINNER
about them and shadows grew heay-
ier and more yelvety dark among
the trees. Though the woods,
though the trail was narrow, Cath
crime walked with her hand in
Henri's, and for half an hour they
spoke no word except in whls-
pers, and at last the four saw their
home.
