The summer when iiugll Greenwood was eight years old it was decided that he ought not to go to school' ieica while, and must be out In the air of ihe'flelds and woods neatly all of every day. That was why Hughie was left on his grandfather's farm when the rest of the tonally wont back le the city ii1 the fall; 01 course, in a way, Hughie was glad. He missed father and mother and his sisters; but being on the farm recent all kinds of outdoor fun which he could not have in the ally, What ho wanted most of all was to do some trapping. This was because of the gloves,of course. Uncle Norman had given them to him when Lhe morn- ings began to get real sharp and snap- py with cold. They were very warm gloves, made of muskrat fur, and Uncle Norman 'had said that Olh'er Bumstead had caught the muskrats himself, in Hughie's grandfather's swamp. Were there any more there? Oh, yes, probably hundreds of ahem; and some- times there were mink, and now and then, but not often, an otter. "Why, just think of it, Uncle Nor- man!" said Hughie. 11 f had some craps 1 could go down to the swamp and catch muskrats enough for a fur coat for nnamnn and a nice buffalo roto for papal" "Weill" said Uncle 'Norman, "you might get enough for the fur coat, but 1 don't know about the buffalo -robe. It takes an awful lot of muskrat skins to make a buffalo -robe." And then he laughed. But he also said there were ,plenty of traps to the shed, and he got same of them down and cleaned them, and showed Hughie how W set and place them. It was a great day for Hugh when he started out the first time to visit his line of traps. The sun was bright and the crust of the snow frozen hard, so that walling was easy; but It was very cold. 1 tell you, those fur gloves kit good then, and so did the woolen muf- fler which grandmother had lied about his ears. The first trap, to Hughle's disappoint- ment, isappointMent, held no muskrat, and had not even been sprung, and it was the same way with the second one. The next was quite a long way off. and sudden- ly, before Hughie reached it, a big rab- bit jumped out of some bushes and dashed away lnlo a hole at the Tools el a big tree. The traps were forgotten then, and Ilughle rushed to the tree, and kneeling dawn, looked Into the hole. The rab- bit was nowhere in sight, and so Hughie pushed his hand in, and then his whole arm, and felt round. Still he could not feel any rabbit, but his fingers did find a little place, way in, through which he could just push his hand: Perhaps the rabbit had squeezed through. He pushed les hand in and felt, No, there was no rabbit. And then, when he cried to pull his hand out, he found he could not, be- cause his fur glove caught in some- thing sharp and rough, that felt like Ice. Every time he pulled, the glove caught and held fast. Perhaps if he pulled hard it might give way and come off; but he knew that if it did'it would drop away down into the hole, and ho would never see it again. If he could only get his knife out and cut the hole bigger! But no, his knife was in his right -band pocket, and it was his right hand that was caught. He could move it back and forth a lit- tle way and in and out a little way, but he could not get It free. Hughie began to feel very cold. When h.: had been running or walking fast iia had felt warm enough, but lying still, face down, in the shadow of the great tree drunk, the chill struck through him like a .knife. Perhaps he would freeze to death before any one found him. The Thought set him to shouting, "Grandpa) Grandpa! Grand -p -a -a -al'' It hurt him l0 lie still, with his arm stretched out, and he began to hear more of his weight on the hand In the hole. Something under the hand felt i very cold where his bare wrist ist rested en it, and then he could feel his hand and sleeve growing wet. After a long time. as it scorned to Hughie,. his arm lingtei so that he just had to move it; and than, to.liis sur- prise, the hand came out 61 the hole with the glove all on it. TI was some icicles and ragged edges of ice that had caught, and his warm hand, resting on it so long, had thawed it enough to eel him 'free, 11 was a very ihanliul bey who got up and walked away, The first thing he did' was to go back and pull up Lha two traps he had passed.

MERELY OVERLOOKED. The ways of the crank with an in- vention are unaccountable. Ilere is a recent actual example: A brisk, eager. individual called on .a capitalist for the purpose of interesting him in a device for discouraging burglars. "I want to get the idea patented," he said, "and I haven't any money. I'm willing to go halves with any man haat will give me the financial backing. "'My scheme is this. You first make your doors and windows secure, so that they can't be opened at all from the cutside—there are plenty of devices for doing that now -a -days. Make all of them tight and fast, except one. Lerve that one so that it will open easily. Then run a wire from that window to the head of your bed, where you have an alarm -bell. The burglar comes along, tries the doors and windows, and when he comes' to that one he rekes it. The alarm goes off and the burglar hears it and flees, or IL wakes you up and you are ready for him. In either case it accomplishes your pur- pose." But," said the capitalist, "i1 you can make all the doors and windows fast except one, why not make that one se- cure, loo, and thus keep the burglar out entirely?" "I never thought of that!" replied the inventor, rubbing his jaw. He didn't get the money. BE'rrER FIFTEEN MINUTES ON 1 BIKE THAN A CYCLE OF CATHAY.

Ml the dirigibles previously made had Pie propeller located under the buoyant body. '1'111s had the effect of disturbing equllibrluin; whether the fan was ahead or astern, it tended to force the balloon into a vertical position. When the pro- peller was attached to ihn car, as in the case of the Petrie and the Ville de Paris, there was tut enornous loss of effect owing le the drag of the baboon proper. This had l0 be offset by great power in the propeller or else by enormous speed of revolution. `l'ho propeller of the Ville de Paris has blades more than ten yards long, which revolve al, the rate of 140 turns a minute the Palettes propeller blades were only three and one -halt yards in length, but they made 1,200 revolutions a minute. Both of these cn- gales added enormously to the weight to be sustained in the air. The Kluylmans-Morcay flying machine is built on the principle laid down by Col. Renard that the motive power, sta- bility appliances and helm should all be as near as possible not only to the eon - tea of gravity but to the mars of the bal. ken. The apparatus consists of two separate cylinders of silk stretched over a steel framework and held fogelhor at intervals of about eight inches by cen- tre! core and also by strong bars of steel hent into the shape of the capital leiter a and extending outward about twenty- inches from the body. In the interval between the two'cylin- ders there is a wheel of the same dia- meter es the body revolving 01) the cen- tral core and driven from a suspended motor. The propeller blades nee attach- ed to the tire of She wheel and revolve freely within the U soaped braces. The entire balloon, as constructed for ex- perimental purposes, weighs about 275 pounds, not counting the pilot. On a trial it developed a speed exceeding 38 miles an hour with the fans revolving 70 turns a minute. This trial machine only had a capa- city of about 150 cubic yards, hut one is already begun of 1,500. It will he driven, by a 30 hone -power motor,' weighing only 80 pounds, and it is expected that it will carry two persons 36 miles an hour in a wind not •exceeding a speed of seven to eight yards .n second; The cost of it is estimated at 58,000 to 810, - Tho war size will be much smaller than the Petrie, not exceeding 1,800 collie feet to the Petrie's 3,300, It will take only half the number of army wa- gens to transport Its sections in cam- paigning, and it will need only six hours to inflate it to twelve needed for the Petrie. It will be able to remain thirty- six hours in the air.. A few years ago some knowing pro- phets predicted the collapse ori what they claimed had previously been tittle better than a fad, and, was now, no- thing less than a boom of a great health producer—the bicycle. Might just as well talk of a steamboat or trolley car Uld bo about boom, there wo r as much room far argument. This will undoubtedly seem a pretty broad statement to many readers, but iL ns none the less true. In these pro- gressive days of rapid transportation, the newspapers continually chronicle the new records established by the fast ocean steamships and overland express Wiens, The bicycle has been dubbed "Tho pool' man's Automobile," and tbls phrase puts the whole story in a nut- shell. When the wheel first scored its popularity, it was taken up largely by a pleasure -seeping public, who, after being amused, tossed the toy aside and turned their attention to some other form 01 indulgence. On the other hand, the steady and economical working plan bought the wheel as an investment —it was something to hank on, and it che;ked the heavy car fare expenditure that was always a drain onthe family pallet -bode. Compered with the street car, thebicycle was juLst as quick in getting to the office in the morning and bath home again. at Right.
