The butcher cut it off. "There
Ion are, ma'am, just 14 ounces."
But the lady said, "No, I want
a pound exactly. It's for an im-
portant dish at an important lun-
e3lleon."
The butcher cut of a bigger
thunk. "Eighteen ounces. That
all right, ma'am?"
"No," said the lady—and she
was a rich and valued customer—
"No, I want you to cut me off a
pound, no more and no less."
"Oh," groaned the butcher, as
he took up his knife again, "you

A RAY THAT SPLITS ATOMS
An extremely high-power atom
smashing ray which may bring
science closer to the mastery of
boundless energy was put into use
last -week at the university of.Call-
.'
fornia.
The machine produces a 19,000,-
000-volt
9,000,000-volt Deuteron beam, the most:
powerful ever made by man.
One of the recent advances in `.
this field has been the disintegra-
tion of a form of uranium, the heav-
iest, stable element, with a result-
ant terrific release of atomic Pow-
er. By using relatively low voltage
rays, sometimes not more than 400,-

to cause uranium atoms to explode
with energies as high as 200,000,-'

Modern Ideas
For Cupboards
If You're Linen Proud, Try Out
A Few a>= These Suggestions
For anybody who has inherited a
real linen pride there are some re-
volutionary ideas for linen cup-
boards that will make it all much
worth being proud of!
Most of the usual oldlinen cup-
boards have plain rows of slatted
shelves, with no division or distinc-
tion for the different pieces of lin-
en. It was only the patience and the
care of the old-fashioned house-
wives that kept the linen cupboard
from complete disorder. We no
longer have so much time to spare,
so the slatted shelves have parti-
tions. And there are little name
discs .on the front of each partition
to show what is to be kept in them.
Painted Completely White
Instead of having to struggle
with drawer papers on the shelves
we ,, have the entire inside of the
cupboard, shelves and all, painted
;with white enamel paint. Then
there need ,be no aggravating papro.
