The plant was composed of live 205-foot boilers placed on edge and In the focus of five channel-shaped mirror reflectors of parabolic cross section, totaling an area of 18,260 feet.

A'concrete chimney, 800 feet high, built recently at the plant of a Texas smelting company, and embodying In Its construction a number of new ldens, is described-4n the Popular Mechanics Magazine. . The shell, or walls, form ing a true circle and tapering from 20% inches thick at the bottom to 5 Inches at the top, was built up with the aid of- patent collapsible, or adjust able, steel forms, used in sections. These made it easier to secure the ex act amount of tapering required as the chimney rose in height, tho 'concrete being mixed and tamped in the forms. The upper part of the chimney was built with a patent top, including u number of 4-lnch pipe Inlets, regularly spaced around the stack for the admis sion of air from the outside.

GOOD HABITS FIRST Most Important Requirement for Mate, Say Students. Women Are Insistent Also on Intel lectual Ability While Men Demand Physical Beauty as Impor tant Requisite. Wlmt are your requirement* of the person whom you would marry 7 Thai question wus asked of lilt* stu dents in connection with the discussion on "convention" l?y rrof. 1,. L. Hernurd, ill his sociology class in 11 *?* University of Missouri, says the Kansas City Slur. Slxt.x eight students, 11 women uud *7 men, placed on the professor's do.sk itiiony'inous statements In answer (to the question. Tin* tabulated opinions show the women consider good moral habits as the prime requisite. Nineteen women make it the tlrst requirement, mIx tho second requirement, eight the third re quirement, six the fourth requirement, one the fifth requirement jind one does not mention It, evidently considering It of nit Importance. (Jood social position Is considered most important by seven women, while the average place this requirement In fourth place. Good Income Is held to be of prime Importance by live women, while seven teen hold it to be of secondary and ten of tertiary Importance. Congeniality and good treatment Is placed among the first four requisites by Si u'iminii, three of whom 'make !t the first requirement. One signifies her willingness to abide with " middle-aged man, w hile 13 place youth as fifth In Importance. One Insists that good looks Is the first essential In a husband, while the majority seem willing to wj?l*e this quality after putting in requests for a good income, congeniality and a good social position. Just as the women require good moral habits as the prime essentials so the men Insist on good character and 'JO demand It as the first require ment. While the women are more Insistent for Intellectual ability, the men base their faith on physical beauty. Five men make It a first requirement, lf> make It a second requirement, while no one places It below the fourth place. All except five of the men express an opinion on congeniality but they do not hold it as a high requirement and in dicate their trust in character, youth and beauty to include that quality. The men are generally interested in the training for home making, making this requirement average fourth in im port mice. The men are decidedly In terested in good heredity, while the women make no mention of it. Two women and two men desire their mates to be religious. One man 1 yearns for mutual Infatuation and plnces it us a third requirement In his schepie of things for marital bliss. One woman longs for sympathy and nsslgns It in fifth place. One man insists on sincerity and common sense while an other requires musical talent in his wife-to-be and a third demands his wife must be economical. A Gigantic Meteor Stream. One of the most accomplished and assiduous students of meteor". Doctor Denning, Is of the opinion that the ftugust meteors, which radiate from the constellation Perseus, and are sometimes called the "Tears of St. Lawrence," belong to a stream so broad that the earth, traveling be tween 18 and 19 miles a second, occu pies seven weeks in crossing it. This would make the width of the stream, if the earth traversed It at a right angle to Its course, nearly 80, 000,000 miles. These meteors ore so scattered all around the orbit In which they travel that some of them are visible every year. They are believed to be connected with a bright comet which appeared in 1862 and Is sup posed to have a period at nnout 120 years. The outer end of Its elliptical meteor stream is situated far beyond the orbit of Neptune. What the, First Telegram 8aid. Contrary to general belief, "What hath God wrought?" was not the first message to be sent by telegraph nor was Morse the sender of the first com munication, says the Popular Science Monthly. Instead, it was sent by one of the committee who were debating upon the proposal of Morse, the in ventor, to string a telegraph line from Baltimore to Washington. Mr. Morse, who wanted to end the discussion and at the same time demonstrate his in vention, strung a wire from the com mittee room to the top of the capltol. One of the committee, who was op posed to President Tyler wrote, "Tyler deserves to he hanged." This was re ceived hy the man at the other end ex actly as it was composed. Taste and Temperature. The sense of taste resides In little flask-shaped pockets Imbedded In the skin of the surface of the tongue and in the upper part of the throat.' Each of these bulbs has a fibril of a nerve connecting: H with the larger nerves of Its region. Anything to be tasted must be In a dissolved or gaseous condition," and differences in taste depend upon the varying Intensity with which the Impression is transmitted through the nerves. It Is not surprising, then, that taste Is much Influenced by tempera* ture and may temporarily be stopped altogether by extreme heat or cold I The son?e of taste Is, ft appears, 'strongest at n temperature between 50 [and 60 degrees Fahrenheit, Do your banking in our National Bank MEMBER FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM OF IMNKS When you do your hanking with us you do it \\llli a Mem ber Itank of (lit* Federal Heservr system of hunks.
