give you a thousand dollars."
The next day, at luncheon, the one
who was challenged handed the other
a slip of paper. After reading it, the
man without a quibble handed ills
friend four $1,000 bills, JTIds iw what
was written on the paper:
l. A Haby'a Smile? ^ A Ukby's smile
chm never be purchased by offering it
money, To the soul that has so lately
come from the place pf the unborn,
the means of exchange of this world
offers no appeal. A mother's kiss, a
father's caress, a flower, a bright. col
ored tdy, may win a baby's smile, but
you cannot bargain for that smile with
gold.
'J. Youth, When It Has Gone ? "The
mill will never grind with the water
thai bus passed." The flush 0f youth,
the luster of the eyes of a boy in his
teens, the carefree happiness of the
imihjen, when the years have brought
maturity, can never come again. I'once
tie I. eon In his q if est for the spring of
eternal youth realized that fact. He
knew that youth, once gone,* could 1
never be bought again. Money will*
nut purchase Its return, even if heaped
in piles of millions, and the spring for
which the knight so diligently searched
to Insure against the ravages of time
wiim never discovered.
3. The Love of a Good Woman ?

BESTFORM OF WIND MOTOR
/ ? ? ? r
Machine That Will Work in Perfect
Calm I* Recent Invention of a
Swedish Manufacturer.
For decades attempts, at construct
ing a wind motor that works so stead
ily as to he Used profitably for gen
erating electricity failed because wind
motor and generator were directly
connected by a rod, and the quantity
of electric current was In direct pro
portion to the power developed by the
motor.
A Stockholm (Sweden) manufactur
er.' succeeded recently In construct
ing a satisfactory wind motor. While
the wind Is strong only . part of the
motor's power Is utilized to drive the
generator, while the surplus power
lifts a heavy weight attached to an
endless chain. When the wind Is not
strong enough to furnish sufficient mo
tor power, or ceases wholly, the gen
erator Is kept In motion by the force
of thesslowly falling weight.
The famous Swedish engineer, Jan
son, figures that the generator Is kept
working at full capacity even If abso
lute calm prevail for three days.
Improved Aluminum.
A curious new form of aluminum
has been > attracting attention In
France. When the pure metal Is heat
ed In a vacuum, 07 per cent of* it Is
slowly volatilized In 73 hours at about
1,100 degrees _ Centigrade; and the
whole Is volatilized In 30 hours at
1,200 degrees centigrade. A small por
tion always proves less volatile than
the rest. Quite often a kind of frac
tl?nal~df*tiHattonr yields an nlumilum
residue that has Increased affinity* for
oxygen, and within a month this Is
completely changed Into a bulky gray
lsH-whlte mixture of alumina and
aluminum. One suggestion Is that Im
purities of Iron or silicon Impart , this
peculiarity. Rut analysis shows only
four per cent of Iron, and live percent
"Of .Million, and the form of metal so
readily oxidized proves, therefore, to
be purer than the alumlrtuin used for
kitchen utensils and various other pur
poses with no tendency to become oxi
dized. It Is concluded that the easily
oxidized metal is an allotroplc form
of aluminum.
Prepared for Tourists.
Tourists flocking to the war zone
are finding novel hotel arrangements
and conditions more comfortable than
expected In view of tbe fact that hard
ly a hotel was left habitable when the
Germans retreated eighteen months
ago. The latest Innovation of French
tourist agencies Is a hotel opened In
Arras, where a series of ordinary rail
road coaches are arranged In a square
with a tent roof over the center, form
ing reception and dining rooms. The
Arras train hotels have eighty rooms,
each coach providing four compart
ments large enough to accommodate
the most fastidious customers. Bunga
low hotels are being erected, especial
ly in the Argonne, where the shell
torn trees are being razed to provide
prober for Canadian style cottages.
Forgotten Distances.
Amerleans who have forgotten the
geography lessons of their school days
will be surprised by statements madr
in an article on Chinese trade pub
lished in Shipping. Manila, it says,
which is an American Insular posses
sion, is closer to China than Is Toklo,
the capital of Japan. The Alaskan
coast Is within ,V) miles of Siberia.
Therefore, the article concludes, it
would seem that America should be
more Interested In Asiatic than in Ku
ropean trade. ? From the Outlook.
