Circumstance
A true nonskidding motor car de-
scribed with illustrations in the
Popular Mechanic Magazine ha
been evolved by a Czechoslovakian
inventor in which the driving mem-
ber are feet and lege instead of
wheel and which propels itself by
a heel-and-toe walking action The
four legs of the odd contrivance are
attached to the throw of a crazik-
haft in such a way that a it re-
volves they are first lifted then car-
ried forward and lowered and
again carried backward Another
jrt causes them ts nek backward

FEEDING EXPERIMENT
It seem that the provwssee which
have been developed and described
for manufacturing cattle food from
sawdust in which a part of the cel-
lulose is converted into lugari have
been based more upon laboratory ex-
periments and theoretical deduo
tion than actual feeding experi-
ments T he forest product labora-
tory prepared a sufficient quantity
of the food to aupply three cow for
a sufficient time to indicate the d-
airability of conducting experiments
on a larger lu-ale The Wiavxtmiin ex-
periment atation co-operated in tliii
work and the rewult were so en-
couraging that it baa been decided
to feed a larger number of animal
a sufficient length of time to reach
definite conclusions
MEN CRITICIZED
Every woman know that men
“though interesting creature are
tiresome hard to control and are
prone to aeck their own way in spite
of warning” according to Mrs II
A Ia Fisher wife of the president
of the British national board of edu-
cation She told a:t audience at the
Royal Sanitary institute congress
that moat men become ill entirely
through faults of their own and
“ow seed of trouble for themselve
by eating too much eating the wrung
things drinking too much being
lazy keeping late hours or living
in hermetically sealed rooms”
LUCKY FRENCH TOWN

ANCHORED TOO NEAR SHORE
New York Yachtsmen Had Forgotten
What Would Happen When the
Tide Went Out
Two ardent New York yachtsmen
who epend their vacation each sum-
mer by taking a fortnight' cruise
in Long Island sound one evening
last week dropjied anchor off 8aun
Bock near New Haven
Not familiar with the sound at
this point they anchored within a
hundred yards of the beach The

door
“Want any milk this morning?”
a voice shouted
Puzzled the akipjier came out of
hi cabin and saw a milk wagon

Generally the disagreeable odor
and taste sometime noticed in cis-
tern water ia due to the growth of
an algae a microscopic plant Oc-
casionally there may be a growth of

to the trouble Adding chloride of
lime having about 35 )er cent avail-
able chlorine in the proportion of
one to three pounds per lOOOiH) gal-
lons of water will kill the growth
of bacteria and algae It may be
neceaaary to thoroughly clean out
the cistern and wadi the wall How-
evar do not do this until after try-
ing the chlorinated lime A pump
that will stir up the water in the
cistern such ae an ordinary chain

FOR HER BEIT BEAU
After taking a few piano leseoni
I received my first piece I prac-
ticed it and thought 1 played it w ell
One Saturday evening a man friend
called to take me to the theuter
we
Just before we left the houre I
plaved iny new piece through for 1
hinL At the theater a man came j
out and announced that he was go-
ing to give eeveral imitations the
first being of a girl playing her fret
piece for her best beau To my aur-
prise be played on the piano the
taint piece that I had been studying
and be got off tune several time
My friend was the first one to bunt
pvit laughing— Chicago Tribune
as she suggest the
phonograph with its muaio-making
facilities or the automobile and the
movie forever dragging people from
their hoinua or jazz with its exotic
and difficult cadence have driven
the old sweet air and the habit of
family singing from the American
homes
Old hymus of noble verse and
Iiulm-r Inuaic lnuuiiful old iiaiiuua
in settings of simple but perfect
melody are a valuable part of the
equipment of any life and memory
Every little while new music of real
merit is produced which should be
added to the collection as pearl are
added to a string
Home in which eueh song are
ung homes in which father and
mother sing such song first to and
then with their children are among
the greatest influence of civiliza-
tion Afore important than the
song or the singing ia the habit in-
stilled in early life of finding pleas-
ure in simple family association
within the wall of home itself—

LITERALLY AS THE BIRDS
A British inventor btated the
other day that flying success will

“flapjwiti’’ — which are nothing more

the arm —or by helicopter screw

flyer' shoulders and turned through
a geared shaft bv either the hand
or feet much in the same way aa
we ks1h1 a bicycle
These curious machines have been
tested at J!k hester in Kent and at
Luton and one enthusiast claim
to have lifted himself a considerable
distance from the ground with th
aid of arm wing
An authority on aviation said:
"There is no rea-on why a mao
should not le aide to fly by human
power until he got tired”
HIDING AN EYESORE i
To hide the unsightly app-aranc
of build ing under construction a
Los Angdcs architect devised th

mental fence around the entire etruo

dinary The outline of the fence
in place waa built to resemble the
roofs of California bungalowi end
the painter completed the bungalow
with hia brush working in the win-
dows pillars vines and trees and
people in the windows Fart of
the fern were also used for adver-
tising with a lot of clever art work
the whole scheme being to make a
beauty spot out of what otherwise
would have been a neighborhood eyo-
