I ’HE difference between the rich man and
1 the poor man usually is that one knew how
to save and the other did not. No matter how
much you earn you will never be wealthy and
independant if you spend it all.

LONDON, Nor. I—(By Mail.)—No
high sounding phraser and involved
Bible quotations make a dent on
the "Tommies” at the front. It’s sim-
ple, soap-box. alfresco language that
army chaplains have to use if they
get an audience. And ail army sky
pilots are doing iL according to an
officer just back from the front.
"Men who preached from immacu-
late pulpits in words of. the hUher
education before the war are out
there talking horse sense to the
soldiers and are having no trouble
to get congregations," said the offi-
cer.
Here la a sample of the latest
kind of sermon, the logic which the
Tommies listen to and like: "If what
I am going to say ia going to make
an old woman of any of you men,
forget it. If it will help you take a
try at it. Now, the first thing a fel-
low has got to get hold of is that
someone is responsible for this out-
fit we call the world. Someone put
it here. You won't find a shell in
your bore or a feed in your nosebak
unless someone has put It there.
Very well, someone put this world
where it is; someone put us here
and someone is responsible for our
being. That's God. I think that’a
horse sense;
"I know a man. a friend of mine,
who fights and boxes for a living, a
man with a b- of a punch—take
his own part anywhere. He's not
ashamed to say. or let you hear
him say, “Christ help me to play
the game.' You know what we mean
by that-golnj straight with men
and women. We all know what it
means, doing your Job and not do-
ing the dirty to anybody.
“What is there to be ashamed of
if a man say in his heart—he need-
n t say it aloud if he doesn't want
to—'I believe in you, Christ, with
all my heart. I know if I go square
you 11 stick to me and I’m going to
try to go square always; and if yon
find me getting off the track, help
me to get back.’ I don't want you to
he a psalm - -lger, wear long ffa t
or be don't-smoke, don't drink sort of
fellows. I want you to be manly. It's
h- boys, for evrjone to hate the
sight of you because you're a rot
ter. Tell Him. boys, that you're
out to do a bit of good for your
selves, that you want him to help
you go straight and clean; that you
often find it a tough job; that you
want a real true friend who knows
the worst and the best of you and
I’ll warrant help will come.”

KANSAS WOMEN GET
PLACES IN OFFICE.
TOPEKA. KAN., Nov. 18.—Of 255
women candidates for county offices
in 92 of the 105 counties in Kansas
at the recent election 151 were elect-
ed. according to reports received
here today. Kansas now has 126
women holding county offices.
Fifty-eight women were elected su
perintendents of instruction. 46 regis-
trars of deeds. 25 clerks of district
courts. 15 county treasurers, five
county clerks and two probate judges.
Classified as to parties there were
55 Republican women elected and 59
Democratic. Of the 64 Republican
women holding office and asking re-
election, 55 were successful. Of the
31 Democratic women seeking re-elec-
tion 24 were successful. Only 17
Kansas counties will not have worn
en county officeholders, according to
the reports.
Although the total number of
women candidates was 255, in
number of cases several of these
were asking the voters for the same
office, so that It was possible for
only 205 of the number to have been
elected. As 151 were successful,
state officials figured tonight that
the perccentage of women cdected to
county offices for which they oppes-
ed men was much higher than the
percentage of men whom the voters
deemed capable of being trusted with
county business.

In these days when practical aero-
nautics are assured, it is difficult to
realize that the first parachute leap
from a balloon was made only thirty-
one years ago. The credit for this
feat appears to belong to Thomas
Baldwin. Here is the story of the
origin and the test of Hug spectacu-
lar feature of ballooning.
Two wire-rope walkers stood by a
window of a fifty floor room in a
New Orleans hotel one spring morn
ing in 1884 and fastened together
the four corners of a tissue paper I
napkin. A cork was attached by a'
thread to where the napkin corners
met. and the contrivance was re-
leased out into the balmy air. First
it rose slightly then careened across
to the opposite side of the street,
struck an eddy, whirled around a
few times and softly dropped to the
ground.
The young men who thade the ex-
periment were Samuel and Thomas
Baldwin, left orphans In their baby-
hood.
As they made their way to the Pa-
cific coast after the napkin test at
New Orleans, they tried to interest
people In the various towns through
which they passed, promising if they
would furnish a balloon they would
leap from It with an umbrella, and
the brothers to receive half the pro-
ceeds. But no one could be found
who wanted to encourage such a fool-
hardy enterprise.
January. 1885, found the Baldwin
brothers in California, cutting “mon-
keyshines" on a wire stretched from
the Cliff House to Seal Rockers, a
distance of 650 feet. The reaort was
thronged with pleasure seekers. In
the park a man was giving ascen-
sions In a captive balloon. The sport
was only Interesting to those making
the ascent, and did not attract much
attention.
U was suggested by the Baldwins
that if the hallonist were to voyage
upward a mile or two in his balloon
and then drop to the ground he
mlvht stimulate business. The aero-
naut laughed and said he did not
eare to pay the price. Hut he was
a good natured fellow and said if
the rope walkers wanted to do a
fool trick" like that they could
use his balloon.
7 li<‘ Baldwins prepared a para-
chute and first tried it. ballasted
with sandbags and dropped from a
high cliff. It did uot seem that the
hags were bumping very hard when
they struck ground, and Tom Bald
win was awarded the honor of mak-
ing the first trial of the parachute
as an adjunct to ballooning. The
undertaking was extensively adver-
tised and all San Francisco turned
out to see a man commit suicide.
The big gas bag went upward a
mile before Tom cut the parachute
loose. He figured that if the ex-1
periment didn't work he wouldn't '
he any more dead from a mile's drop
than from that of a couple of hund-
red feet. The broad silk cover
opened gracefully, and the air navi-
gator started slowly toward the
earth.
Then something happened on
which neither Tom nor hi* brother
had calculated, la spite of their care-
ful study of the subject. The big
parasol began to oscillate viciously

Spent Sii Years In Research
And Then She Produced a
New Process ol Robber
Manufacture
After six years of unremitting ex-
periment and research, Mrs. Anne
Gilbert Cox. wife of Dr. H. Bar-
ringer Cox, inventor of the wireless
subterranean telephone, the dry cell
battery and a score of other devices
which have made him Internationally
famous, has announced in this city
her discovery and perfection of a
new process of manufacturing rub-
ber.
Mrs. Cox hag succeeded in produc-
ing a form of rubber that Is said to
be almost indestructible. She be-
lieves her discovery makes it pos-
sible to manufacture crude rubber
into a liquid, with a range of uses,
already proved, that will work a
revolution in a dozen industries.
Her final experiments were con-
ducted in a mountain camp near
Loa Alivos, Cal., where her In-
ventor husband has : een adapting
his wireless telephone to the needs
of the forest service, and It was
there the most importan step in her
experiments, the substitution of the
sun's rays for artificial heat In cook-
ing crude rubber, was discovered.
A Cheap, Successful Varnish.
Mrs. Cox has come to San Fran-
cisco to make further test of her
new product, and. with her hu.-Atand.
Is at the Palace Hotel.
Among the first teslg attempted
with the new liquid rubber was that
of using it, with a solvent, as a
varnish. Mrs. Cox has succeeded in
producing a rubber varnish of any
desired color or consistency, which
is said to be impervious to heat,
cold and water, and which, after the
evaporation of the solvent, is sub-
ject to no chemical change.
The cost of the product is nomi-
nal. This is Important, as the sup-
ply of varnish zums has been de-
creasing year by year.
In her tests she has coated tissue
paper with the liquid, wulch. with-
out lessening the flexibility of the
paper, rendered it waterproof. Mrs.
Cox says her Invention can be used
as a wood preservative, rust pre-
ventive,, insulating medium or as a
waterproofing for every fabric from
silk to coars bagging and tenting, to
which material it adds almost no
weight.
A Woman of Scientific World
It can be made as light in con-
sistency as water or as heavy as mo-
lasses; will give with a single coat
a gloss equal to the finest pian<k
finish, or It can be made in a
finish as dull as white lead. It has
been impossible heretofore to bring
crude rubber to such a state of
liquefaction that It could be used in
these ways.
Mrs. Cox, who was horn near
Dublin. Ireland, and is 28 years old.
conceived the idea of producing liq-
uid rubber while conducting chemical
experiments in her husband's labora-
tory in England six years ago. She
has a technical education, under-
stands mechanic* and electrical sci-
ence, has acted as Doctor Cox's
laboratory assistant and is widely
known among scientific men the
world over. Doctor Cox has acted as
her critic and adviser and has en-
counted her in her efforts to find
the secret of liquid rubber.
