HEN Mr. Bowser came up from the office the other evening he had an air about him that puzzled Mrs. Bow-

He was quiet and subdued and yet vot sorrowful, He was dignified and yet pleasent. Me bad found the gute open, but be did not mention the fact. He had voticed an old can on the steps, where some boy had thrown it, but be did vot Jump up and down and take on about It,

At the dinner table he praised the coffee and steak and suggested to Mrs. Bowser (hat the cook’s wares be rats- ed.

“But—but"—

“And then to a sergeantey. We bare | bad our eyes on you for some time, and we like the way you do your duty.”

Not a Case For an M. D, ~

When Mr. Bowser got back home he was more smiling and good natured than ever. As he sat with the cat in! his lap and stroked her back and called her fond names Mrs, Rowser wus try- ing to figure things out. She suggest-

“You will have to order coal In the Morning.” said Mrs. Bowser after a bit. eS aes

“Very well, my dear.”

No springing up aud shouting that ehe had been selling the cos! out of Fpite—no charges that it bad been poked down ratholes in the cellar.

“During the rain today I saw that the kitchen roof leaked.”

“I will have a man up here tomor- row.”

No roaring and shouting. No de- claring that Mrs. Bowser had been galloping around on the roof tn order to do all the dawige possible. Not a | word about being on the road to the poorhouse,

“In cleaning house today the cook somehow broke a rocker off a chair.”

“It Lad been loose for a long time,” a@ald Bowser.

Mrs. Bowser was perturbed. That wasn't the way for Mr. Bowser to act. He was a lion instend of a lamb, Had he beard of the dexth of a relutive? Tiod some doctor told tim that both lungs were gone? Had be fost a lot | of money?

On a Mission of Peace.

Mr. Bowser usually drops bis napkin on the floor and shoves his chair back with a scrape when a menl ts finished, but on this ocension the napkin was rolled and the chuir geutly bandled as he quietly said:

As a rule, the Shetland is too small to be of much use, but when it is crossed with a larger breed the result is 2 strong, Vigorous pony that not only can furnish fun for the children, but can do enough work to more than pay for its board and care. Unlike the lar- ger work animals, a pony can be used for light tasks when it {s a yearling and thus become profitable when very young. ;

A pony requires very ttle feed. One that wos pastured on a medium sized Inwn had all it could do to keep the grass trimmed, If the animal is put out to browse in fence corners or along | the road he will forage for himself ua- til late In the fall and will require very little feed even when shut up in bad weather.

There is great danger in overfeeding, | yet the fatthful Httle animal should not be. starved. Tontes ut times iike chopped apples or carrots and other vegetables, and these will*help to keep them in fine condition. It is seldom mecessary to feed grain to a pony.

We have a little wagon, bought at a! sale for almost nothing, to which the pony is hitebed nearly every day tn busy seasons, and the children thus) take a hand In the work, says a writer in Country Gentleman, They could not manage the work horses, for these are heavy and headstrong, but the pony is fun for them. It fs a com- mou sight to see them in the pony cart

A yearling | pony mare brought $00 at our sale, and the entire cost of ralsing and keeping her did not exceed $20. Though no

| busy farmer wants to give his entire|

time to the pony business, yet a pony little sum and one that represents very | little labor. Gentle ponies, well broken | to the saddle and the cart, often sell ; for as tuch ns $130 to $150, but

There is not} an animal ou the farm which, to say

Economy of Concrete Bridges.

In the case of a steel bridge the la- bor and material are seldom found fo the locality In which the bridge is built, whereas in the construction of a concrete bridge most of the labor and materials may be obtained at the site, and the greater part of the money expended for the bridge remaingin the community. This Is nside from the cust of maintenance and appropriate Gesign, which are entirely in favor of concrete. It would be more econom- feal under certain circumstances to pay from one and a half to two times as much in first cost for a concrete bridge as one’ of steel. There is good reason to believe that this represents

the situation as ft pertains to the aver- age bridge instead of being the exeep- fion. Tlow vastly more economical to use conerete where the cost does not exceed steel, which has frequently been the case 1) many sections of the country, In some instauces bids for

CHAPTER vit" A Leaf From the Past

Aaron Phillips was ° standing up with something like . smile upon his face. He was a short, slim person, “swarthy and foreign looking, exeept for the pair of keen blue eyes which bespoke the Anglo-Saxon in his blood. From the roots of his hair across to his temple, was a long angry red fur- row which looked like a comparative- y fresh-healed wound. As to the rest,

“Glad to meet you, Mr. Fielden,” he grinned.

“I shall be obliged if you won't use that name here,” Harry replied. “For the present my name is Field, and I Want you not to forget it. But how did you manage to get home again 1 thought you were dead.”

Phillips indicated the sear on his foreead.

“It was a near thing, Mr. Fielden, T beg pardon, Field. It wasn’t the fault of those scoundrels, I can tell you. They left me for dead, and if I hadn’t been picked up by some of the boys I should have died of starvation in the veldt. As it was, I had a close shave, and so did Copley and Foster for the matter of that. Our friends chased them all across the Colony. and how they managed to escape is a mys- tery to me. Still, perhaps, it is as well. There are more ways than one of taking revenge.”

The little man’s eyes gleamed as he spoke. He glanced meaningly at Fielden and jingled a few coppers in his pocket.

“Make them pay for it, you mean,” Fielden smiled.

“That's it, sir, you’ve got it first time. Now, as you know perfectly well, there are a dozen or more people out yonder who would give a round sum to have Copley on the end of the rope, or within reach of a revolver shot. They are not the sort to give informa- tion to the police, because that is not the way we used to do things. Still, if I like to open my mouth widely en- ough I could make it deuced hot for Copley & Co. I could have them con- veyed to Cape Town, and it wouldn’t take me long to find evidence enough to give those two chaps ten years on the Breakwater. Yes, sit, Id have

“tore it/too, but theré’s a befler way than that. It took me the pest part of a year or more to scrape enough money together to pay my passaye home. I had heard some queer stori2s about Copley, and I wanted to find out if they were true. What do I see when I reach London? Why, Copley with a set of offices in the city—Cop- ley with a set of rooms at a palatial hotel—Copley with a place in the country and a string of race-horses. Oh, I tell you Mr. Fielden—Field, I mean—I rubbed my hands when I heard of it. Thinks I to myself, ‘This is a better game than handing Copley over to the South African Police.’ I don’t quite know yet how Copley has managed it, but here he is ruffling it with the best, spending money like water, and now they tell me he is go- ing to marry the daughter of a baron- et in these parts.”

Fielden’s face flushed angrily. He winced at this home thrust on Phil- lip’s part. So already people were coupling May Haredale’s name with Copley. It had not occurred to him that things had gone as far as that, But, however, Phillips could not be expected to know this. He was mere- ly innocently repeating gossip.

Itching and Burning on Face and Throat

Sores Disfigured So He Dreaded to Appear in Public, No Rest Night or bay. Cuticura Ointment Cured,

“Bix months ago my face and throat all broke.cut and turned into a running sore. I did not bother about it at first, but in one week's time the disease had spread so rapidly over my face and throat and the burning itching sores became so painful that I began to seek relief in different medicines, but none seemed to give me any relief. The sores disfigured my face to such an extent that I dreaded to appear in public,

“I suffered terribly and could get no rest night or day. At last a friend advised me to try the Cuticura Remedies, I had about given ap hope, but thought. I would have “one more try, and so I used a little Cuticura Ointment, and it helped me from the start. I continued using it and in six weeks' time was completely cured, and can say I would advise anyone suffering from skin disease ‘to uso Cuticura Ointment, as it is the best healing balm in the world,” (Signed) Roscoe Good, Seven Persons, Alta., Feb. 18, 1911,

FOUND RELIEP ONLY FROM CUTICURA SOAP AND OINTMENT

It lasted six monihs or more, but after a thorough treate ment with the Cuticura Soap and Ointment never had any return.” (Signed) Mrs, W. 3, Owen, Yadkin College, N. C., May 26, 1911,

“I suppose you mean to have some of this money?” he asked, ;

“That is it, sir, You have hit the right nail on the head exactly, If you like to uso the expression I am going to blackmail Copley. I am not afraid of the blackguard here. There is no chance of his trying any of his murd- erous tricks on in England. He knows I have come back, but as yet I have not waited upon him. I have had a hint to call from Foster, but Iam not taking any of that, thank you. You don’t catch me dropping into a police trap with a chance. of being prosecuted and hustled owt of the country before I know where Iam. When I do strike it Will be in a different way altogeth- er. For the present, I have been toon ing around asking questions, because, you see, it will be of considerable ad- vantage to me to find out where te ley is getting his money. That he is earning it honestly I don’t believe. He couldn't do it if he wanted to. He is the sort of blackguard that would sooner make five pounds dishonestly than a tenner by legitimate business.”

“I suppose you never found those plans?” Fielden asked.

Philips swore heartily:

“Never, sir,” he said. They were in my porimanteau, as you know. I had the portmanteau in my possession when those blackguards attacked me, and they had to levant without it, so closely were they pressed. But when I was well again I asked for my bag- gage and no one could tell me what had become of it. It vanished in a most mysterious manner. If you ask me, the portmanteau was stolen by one of those thievish Kaffir boys. It makes me wild when L think of it. Probably it is concealed in a Kaffir hut. In the old portmanteau it a scrap of paper which is worth bund- reds of thousands to us. I say us, be- cause if is yours just as much as it is mine.

worrying about that? We shall never see those papers again, and as far as we are concerned that diamond mine might never have existed. But what are you doing here?”

“T used to live close by,” Fielden ex- plained. “Most of this was once my property. You see Sir George Hare- dale’s trainer employs an old servant of mine and I came out this morning to see that trial. I might ask you the the same question.”

Phillips blue eyes twinkled.

“Bit of a disappointment, wasn’t it?” he asked. ‘

“What do you know about it?” Field- en demanded,

“Oh, well, sir, wo are not partners in this job, at any rate. And if you like to keep your counsel, I am per- fecily willing to keep mine, Old Raf- fle is as straight as they make ‘em, but he is a downy old fox all the same, and pretty neatly he drew the feather over Copley’s eye this morning. Oh, yes, I heard all those blackguards had to say: in fact, I] followed them here. I am eglad I came. because I heard

someiirnrg that confirmed my Susplc: |

ions.”

“You ments?”

“That's it, sir. I wanted to know where Copley is getting his money. I know he isn’t vaying his tradesmen. but that doesn’t matter. for a man with a reputation for wealth can get as much credit as he likes. But Cop- ley is flying at high game and must have the command of a good deal of ready cash Now where does it come from? What sort of a swindle is on? Why are they so anxious to watch the trial of the Blenheim colt thie morn- ing? And, by the way Mr. Fielden, vou must give old Rafflo a hint to keen his eve on the stable lads. Some- hody has been betravinge confidence Tt doesn't much matter, because Con- ley was fooled this morning as easy as if he hed heen a schoolboy. — But Tam getting a bit away from the point I was going to tell you where Conlev got his money. Well. it’s a bettine swindle, and one of the biggest and most ingenius that has been atiempt- ed on ihe turf for many a long day. 1 inst heard enough te put me on the irack. But I've my work cut out be- fore I reach the bottor of it) You have no occasion to love Copley rk

“Indeed I haven't,” Fielden said bit- terly. “I have every reason for dis- liking the man, every reason “or ..- posing him before Miss—well before things have gone too far. And if ! cap help you I will do so cheerfully.”

“That's right,” Phillips said a provingly. “Now, where can I see yo. for half an hour in the course of the afternoon? We mustn't stay talking here. There is old Raffle coming?”

Fielden thought it over for a mou ment or two. He was glad enough meet this old South African comrad: of his again. In a good many ways Phillips was anything but a desirable acquaintance. His upbringing bad been none too strict, but, at the same time, he had a rough code of honor. and it was one of his proudest boasts that he never forgot a friend or a fa- vor. Probably he had had his own reasons for leaving Hneland suddenly. and no doubt those reasons had some- thing to do with the turf. At any rate he had a profound and intricate know- ledge of racing matters, and there was no swindle or trick with which he was not familiar.

“You had better meet me at Heron's Dvke.” Fielden said, You can be out- side in the road about a quarter te five. There is nobody on the prent- ises, J have the key in my pocket and I daresay | shall manage to get a light from somewhere.”

Phillips agreed and _ disapneared amongst the high gorse. As Ficlden stepped into the onen air he saw Raf- fle looking about for him, There war a shrewd smile on the old man's face and he did not appear in the least dir concerted over the result of the trial

“Well,” Fielden asked. “What about your Derby winner now?”

Raffle’s eye contracted in a wink.

“Oh, it’s all right sir,” he said. "The trial was a great success. Did you happen to see anybody in the gorse, sir?” he said

“Yes,” Fielden replied. Copley,”

“and a friend,” Raffle chuckled. “I know all about it, And between you and me, I got this up for the benefit of Mr. Copley, who is about the great- est raseal unhanged, and that’s saying

Library for the Blind

Last spring a brief article on the Canadian Free Library for the Blind appeared in these columns. In that article it was stated that the library, then at Markham, Ont., was to be re- moved to Toronto. The removal has since taken place, and the GC, F, L. B, now occupies quarters at 105 Annette St., Toronto, Ont,

The Canadian Free Library for the Blind is attempting to reach and ben- efit all the blind of Canada, but it {s encountering serious obstacles in the realization of this hope from the dif- ficulty in securing names and addres. Ses of those without sight, from the necessity of canvassing for funds to defray the expenses of maintenance. The Board of Management therefore requests all readers of this journal who are acquainted with blind per- sons not now enjoying the benefits of the library, to send in such names jand addresses to the Secretary, S. C. | Swift, 8 Washington Ave., Toronto, | Ont. It also makes a direct appeal to the generous Canadian public to con- tribute some small portion of the wealth with which it has been blessed jduring the past year. All contribu- }tions should be sent to the treasurer, Kh. W. Hermon, Esq., 37 Balmute St., Toronto, Ont.

It is the desire of the C. F. L. B. to establish a printing department for the purpose of printing Canadian texts in embossed type for the use of the Canadian Blind. There is at present no such establishment in Can- ada, with the result that Canadian lit- jerature is practically unavailable to our sightless ciiizens. Thirty thou-

After several years’ investigation of the forests of the Philippine islands Dr: H. N. Whitford is enabied to make some statements concerning their ex- | tent and richness which will be likely L) £0 SU rnriga 2m agape sroaslenen The wey es for instance, that the virgin forest | area of the islands, covering 25,000,- 000 acres, contains 200,000,000,000 board feet of lumber, and he contrasts this with the 400,000,000,000 feet of timber growing on the 200,000,000 acres contained in the forest reserves of the United States. In other words the Philippine forests are, acre for acre, four times as rich as those otf this country. Other authorities agree with Dr. Whitford in the opinion that when the world’s eyes are op ne! to the value of the tropical fores:s a great asset will have bee added to the common wealth of mau'\\.0i

Dickens and Marshalsea Prison

\ very interesting relic of one of ; the London prisons demolished in the course of the Victorian era is about to figure in an auction room in the west end. This is the actual iron and oak grill from the old Marshalsea prison in Southwark, behind which, it is said the father of Charles Dick- ens was confined for debt. Readers

not need to be reminded of the fact

ior of the famous prison and the life

Like more than one other in the Lon- don area, the prison was finally razed to the ground in 1899, It was used

almost entirely for persons comumit- ted for debt and contempt of court and for admiralty prisoners.

Quick Measuremevts

A traveller was d3tair+] at a country railway station for ‘alf in hour and was chatting with the sta- tionmaster, when the bell rang sharply half a dozen time. Instantly the three employees—stationmaster, booking clerk and porter—ranged up in a line on the platform and stood at attention.

A moment later a locomotive with a single saloon-carriage slowed up. | The solitary occupant of the saloon regarded the men sharply, made hur- ried notes and quickly retired.

“Who was that?” the traveller asked the stationmaster after the train had gone. “Some prominent official of the line,”

“Oh no,” was the reply. “That was the company’s tailor measuring us for new suits,”

Among the various feedstuffs which are not conducive to the best health of the animals may be mentioned corn. Still, corn is used in many instances as the sole grain ration for swine.

By so doing disease may break out in one place and the re mainder of the hogs on the farm not be affected at all. On the other band, if they are bunched up tp small yards and disease should break out, in many instances the entire flock will be af- fected before it Is noticed.

COINS OF ALUMINIUM.

Advantages of the White Metal Over Bronze Coinage. Aluminium ts a bluish white metal which is very malleable when pure, In bardness and tenacity it is com. parable with silver, Experiments in abrasion conducted at the French mint have proved that aluminium coins will be less rapidly worn by use than coins of gold, silver or even bronze, says the Scientific American, Alumiaium has a metattite ring and is unaffected by ex- posure to the air at any ordinary tem- perature, Its extreme lightness is an- other advantage. It is only 2.56 times heavier than water and is four times lighter than silver; bence aluminium coins could be carried in considerable quantities without inconvenience, and they would be easily distinguished from silver coins by their lightness.

Linseed For Boiler Scale.

The matter of boiler scale is one which is a constant worry to every one who is responsible for the econom- ical operation of a boiler plant, and maby are the attempts which have been made to solve this problem. An exceedingly simple method has been discovered by a Russian engineer, which consists of adding a small quan- tity of linseed to the boiler water. The linseed is put in the epper part of a copper tank divided by a horizon- tal sieve of fine mesh and connected with the hot water supply. The re- sultant decoction filters through the close meshed double copper sieve to the lower part and is fed to the boiler through the injector. The slimy sub- stance of the solution attacks every particle of forming scale which does not adhere to the walls of the boilers and is readily ejected when the boiler is blown out. The necessary amount of linseed is stated to be about one-half pound for every 100 horsepower. ‘Tak- ing thirty pounds of steam as corre- sponding to one horsepower, the quan- Uly of linseed required would be about one-half pound for every 270 gallons of feed water.

Simple Ventilating Device.

WHY THE OCEAN IS SALT.

Sea water contains about 38% per cent of sodium chioride and other salts, |The evaporation of ail the oceans would leave a mass of sait sufficient \to cover the entire globe to the depth of 200 feet and equal to the buik, above sea level, of North and South Amer. ica, or one-fourth that of the whole earth.

The thecry that this enormous quan- | tity of salt has been dissolved teem | continental rocks and carried down to | the sea by streams is not tenable, be- ‘cause the salts found in solution in | river water contain 80 per cent of car- ‘bonate of lime and only 7 per cent of |chlorides, while common salt, or 80- dium chloride, constitutes 89 per cent lof the salts of sea water, Moreover, the evaporation of inland seas which | {has taken place in central Asia has lleft saline deposits very different in from the salts of the

| ocean. It appears, therefore, that salinity

Ky fol- | proposes to replace some 50,000,000 | must be regarded as an original prop-

erty of the ocean, Suess has advanced | the theory that the salts now found in | | the sea have been ejected by volcanoes |in early stages of the earth's forma- tion. Even now every eruption tn- creases the quantity of water vapor, |earbonic acid and compounds of chlo- rine and sulphur in the atmosphere, land these substances ultimately find their way to the ocean. After every eruption of Vesuvius the crater is covered with a gleaming white layer of common salt, and the volcanoes of South America eject enormous quanti- ties of hydrochloric acid, estimated at thirty tons daily for the voleano of Purace, in Colombia,

This volcanic activity, now restricted to a few points of the earth’s surface, must have been general in remote ages,

before life appeared on the globe. The |

gases confined within the thin solid erust burst their bounds and found their way to the surface, bringing with them the millions of tons of chlorides which we find today in the oceans. Yet the transfer of these millions of tons is a relatively insignificant change, for on a terrestrial globe of a diameter equal to the average height of man (sixty-six and one-half inches) one-six- teenth inch would represent the great est depth of the ocean, and the waters ofethe ocean contain only 31% per cent of solids.—Cosmos,

A young inventor of Lyons, France, | has adapted a bicycle for use as a boat and as a road machine, To en- able the bicycle to run on water he attached to it a pair of cylindrical floats, a propeller and a rudder. On leaving the water the cylinders and nautical gear are lifted so as to allow the wheels to run on the ground.

The inventor was able to run his ma- chine on the Saome, in the neighbor: hood of Lyons, and also on roads ap- parently with no difficulty. When in the water the machine is able to make five or six miles an hour quite easily.

The two cylindrical floats, which end In a conical point, are attached to the bicycle frame by jointed supports so that they can be raised and lowered as desired and can be fastened in

EEEEEEELEE LEELA EEE EERE WINTER CARE OF SHEEP.

Suggestions For Feeding and Care ef. Breeding Ewes.

Breeding ewes may be kept tn first class condition through the winter by the use of roughages and concentrates such as may be grown on the average farm, says the Orange Judd Farmer, The mistake is often made of thinking that the ewes can be wintered on some roughage, as bay or straw, and atill keep tn proper condition. They should not be fat, but should carry more flesh than is usually supposed,

Clover bay is an excellent roughage, as is also alfalfa, Corn fodder, oat straw, barley straw or roots, such as mangels, may be used, Corn silage has proved satisfactory and econom- ical when fed with bay or fodder, It furnishes a succulent feed that acts as a stimulant to the appetite and as a regulator of the bowels. Ewes that are fed a daily allowance of silage will more certainly keep in a thrifty condition, Roughage alone will not be sufficient, as some concentrate or con- centrates should bé fed. With a lib eral supply of roughages not more than half a pound of concentrates, such as oats, should be required. Less than this amount will often be suffi- cient Bran or cowpeas may be Ted

with good results. Corn may be fed, but since it is quite fattening the amount should be very small. Care should be taken that too much of the protein rich feeds, such as clover, al- falfa or bran, is not fed, They tend to produce lambs that are too large at birth or that have more bone develop- ment than is desired.

In addition to receiving a proper ra- tion dry quarters are necessary if the ewes are to go through the winter as they should, Too warm quarters may be possible. Ordinarily one thickness of well matched inch boards ts all that is needed on a sheep burn,, The cracks should be battened, however, as drafts are very undesirable.

STORY OF A BAD MAN.

tHow Justice Temporarily Miscarried In the Case of Tarantula Jim Versus Joe Biff and an Ornament of the Bench and Bar Was Bamboozled,

By M. QUAD, fCopyright, 1911, by Associated Literary Press.)

OR ten minutes previous to open- ing court Judge Hoke sat in his place with a look of sor- row on his face and sighs es-

-caping from his lips at intervals. It ‘was evident that be was laboring un- der strong mental emotion. It was a dong minute after the crier had made his cry that bis bonor looked around ‘the room and said;

“This ‘ere court as a court is asham- ed to look you in the face. This ‘ere court as Tom Hoke, owner of the Red Dog saloon, spent « good share of last might kicking bisself around the grave- yard.

“For fifteen long years Tom Hoke has ‘been the high peg in this town of andy Bend His Red Dog saloon has

In arriving at his legal decisions he shas been careful of the honor of the egreat and only west as well as the erights of plaintiff and ‘defendant. ‘Where honor is lost all is lost.

“You all remember the case of Joe ‘Biff versus Tarantula Jim. 1 sent Joe «to the pen for tive years for bighway ‘robbing Jim. He appeals to a higher court and gets the decision reversed «on me, and | am directed to give him a «new trial.

“My friends, go back with me a year. i3It is a perfect fall day. The birds are singing and the kyotes yelping, and eevery critter in Sandy Bend is a-thank- “ng beaven that be’s alive and kick- ang.

“Down from the mountains on a -spotted cayuse comes riding ‘Tarantula Jim. We see him when be is yet afar off. He sees us. He rides his cayuse «in cireles. He makes him stand on tis rtail. He shoots up the sky. He utters warwhoops. We look at eacb other ein a doubtful way. Is a bad, bad man coming into our midst?

Enter Tarantula Jim.

“And then Tarantula Jim comes a- galloping and a-yelling and a-shooting sand a-frothing at the mouth, and we chave him among us. Bad? Oh, yes.

He was grizzlies, rattlesnakes, centi- |

The Unpretending Biff.

“Has Tarantula ever killed a man in Sandy Bend? Nary one. He's made to draw on several, and he's yelled at others till they was made to leave wown, but as for shooting he’s with- held his hand His excuse was that if ‘he was once aroused he couldn't hold ®isself, and the town of Sandy Bend would be laid in sackcloth and ashes.

THE ACCELEROMETER.

An Instrument That Measures Power and Road Resistance.

In a paper on the use of an ne. |

celerometer in the measurement of road resistance and horsepower, read ata recent meeting of the engineering section of the British association, H. BE. Wimperis described the form of ac- celerometer recently invented by him

The instrument consisted of a brass bex about four inches across, contain. ing a copper disk mounted on a ver- tical pivot and “damped” in its mo- tions by a permanent magnet, The center of gyration of the disk was pur- posely removed from the axis, so that when the box moved forward one side of the disk tended to lag behind, thus Partially winding up a coiled spring and actuating a pointer, which moved over a scale. To prevent the reading from being affected by any accelera- tions at right angles to the direction of motion, & second parallel axis was fit- ted, which was geared to the first one

the same mass movement as the disk itself. Couples about these two axes added up in the direction of motion, but neutralized one another in any dl- rection at right angles. The accelerom- | eter, therefore, read in three directions of space only and was not affected by even violent ments in the other two directions, With this instrument the author had measured the road resistance of va-

rious classes of road and had obtained | figures varying from 50 pounds to 210 pounds per ton. On main line railways the resistance was usually from twelve pounds to thirty pounds per ton, de- pending on the speed. Measurements had also been made of the resistance to | motion when a motorcar was coasting, In this way the horsepower and the engine friction could be measured and | a figure for the mechanical efficiency | could be obtained. By the use of the accelerometer road resistances could

be read off at sight, the air resistance |

of various shapes of car body could

be determined, the boiler horsepower |

and indicated horsepower of the engine could be obtained for various speeds, while it was possible to trace step by step the losses of power in transmis- sion to the road wheels.

» 3 Stockings

It appears that Tlenry H. when pre paring for the marriage of his sister in 1559, first gave the idea for silk stockings and was the first to wear silk knitted stockings at that epoch- making event. A hundred years later one Hindres established a factory for stockings in the Bois de Boulogne. +

This was the first factory in France. It was a success at the start and when it received protection from the then ministers it was a kind of gold mine: In 1666 the venture was turned into a company. From it arose the Society of Stocking Makers. _ At this time ribbed sockings were made in England but it was not until nearly a century later that such wear was introduced into France, The idea, to use a vul- garism, “caught on” and * factories were established in Paris and Lyons. |
