P ON the summit of the famous
Mount Ueneroso in Switzerland
scientists of Germany have Just com
pleted a research laboratory for the ex
clusive study of lightning and Its ef
fects on atoms. The work of Instal
lation has tik e n four years. Mount
Geueroso, a veritable center of at
mospheric disturbances. Is considered
the best region In the world for the
Investigations to be carried on there.
The conditions are Ideal.
Besides the study mentioned, the
scientists, with the huge apparatus they
have placed on the mountain, part of
which Is shown in the illustration,
w ill take part in the general effort
to obtain higher voltage for super X-
ray tubes. They hope to obtain as
much ns 16,000.000 volts. The re
sults of their work w ill be watched
with interest by electrical experts and
physicists all ovei the world.

HOW FLATHORNS THE
MOOSE GOT EVEN
F COURSE tliat Is another way of
saying thut if some one wrongs
us we shouldn't try to wrong them In
return. But there are times when It
seems as I f the only way to teach
some people a lesson so that they will
not forget It is to treat them as they
treat others. If was something like
this with Fla thorns the Moose when he
did the thing about which Honker the
Goose told Buster Bear and Peter Rab
bit and the others sitting on the shore
of the pond of Paddy the Beaver deep
in the Green Forest
" It was this way,” began Honker
“Old Flathorns had been hunted and
huuted by men with terrible guns nn
til he was so uneasy and worried that
he couldn't eat or sleep. The rustling
of a leaf falling from a tree would
make him Jump and shake all over.
It wns dreadful. He didn’t dare go
to any of the places or use any of
the paths which had been perfectly
safe all summer. Once In a while he
would steal down to the lake where
I was, and while he got his breath be
tween drinks he would tell me about
his trouble.
" 'If these men things would flght
fairly, 1 wouldn't he afraid.* said lie.
‘But they don’t. What chance have
I got against them when they kill or
hurt with their terrible tire-sticks
while yet a long way off? If they
would meet me face ro face and fight
fairly, as any honest liver in the Greut
Woods does. I wouldn’t be afruld. I've
never harmed or bothered them. If I
could Just catch one of them without
his terrible fire-stick, I'd show you
who's afraid.*
“ Right while he was talking there
was the bang of one of those terrible
fire-sticks, and old Flathorns wen)
right down on his knees with a grunt,
and there was a red mark where some
thing had hit him. But It didn’t kill
him. It Just hurt him dreadfully and
knocked him down. He closed his eyes
for Just a wee minute with the pain,
and when he opened them there was
the hunter running toward him and
shouting excitedly. I guess by the
way he acted that he never had shot
anybody like Flathorns before, or he
would have known better thun to run
out that way. The minute old Flat
horns saw him he forgot all about be
ing afraid of the hunter. He forgot
all about the pain from the hurt made
by that terrrlble flre-stlck. He Just
Jumped to his feet, all the hair on the
back of his neck stnndtng on end with
anger, and with a fierce-sounding snort
he pul his big horns down and rushed
straight at that hunter. The flre-stlck
hanged once more, but I guess the
hunter was too frightened to shoot
straight. Anyway the hunter dropped
Ills fire-stick and started to climb a
tree Just the way you do. Buster.
“ He got out of reach of Flathorns
Just In time. He was the worst scared
hunter e’ 'er you saw. His eyes looked
as If tliep would pop out of his head.
W htn he reached the first branches
he hung on for dear life while old
Flathorns butted the tree so hnrd that
I dlen't kt ow but he would knock It
dow t. It '»as all the hunter could do
to h tld ott. How he did yell I ft

1 guess It wasn't good for much. A ft
er a while he grew tired and went off
Into the woods out of sight. The mnu
waited a long time, and I guess finally
he made up his mind that Flathorns
really had gone away. He started to
come down, hut was only half wuy
when out rushed Flathorns as angry
as ever, and the hunter scrambled

Friendship Marred by
Distance in New York
In New York city It Is possible to
know un Infinite variety of good citi
zens. You tuny scrape up an u<*>
qunlntunco with showgirls, profes
sors of applied therapeutics, novel
ists, pugilists, Hindu swamis, tabloid
reporters, toe dancers and captains
of South American banana boats.
You inny even become wnrrn friends
of a hlhllomanlac or a Hoboken bar
tender.
But what good w ill they do you?
I f you live In the Bronx, your best
friends Invariably live I tv Flatbush,
and If you live on City Island, the
boon companions you are Just dying
to see ulwnys reside In Jamaica or
Jersey C ity.
So that If you are projecting an
hour's friendly call, you have to
travel ou the subways two hours;
you are mauled by the theater
crowd, and manhandled by the
downtown warehouse wutchmen go
ing uptown to sleep and the uptown
swells going downtown to piny.
And when you arrive at your
friend's house at 10:00 p. m., limp
and shopworn, you find, of course,
that he has quit waiting for you and
has gone to n Rumanian fish house
three blocks from your home which
you left two hours ago.
Friendship In New York becomes
too often a terrific chore. It Is fa r
ensler to he content with the casual
folk you rub against where your
business or your thirst takes you.
As a rule, therefore, the “people to
your taste" are not to your taste In
any deeper, spiritual sense, but they
simply frequent the same resort or
restaurant you do anti are tolerable
only heenuse they can spenk your
Jargon of art or business and do not
attempt to assault you with beer
mugs.— Ernest b. Meyer In the F o r

Japan Hat Earned Name,
"Cherry Blottom Land”
Many tourlsta visited Japan dur
ing April, especially In order to see
the cherry blossoms. Japan's cherry-
blossom season Is like that of no
other land. It lasts for only a few
weeks In April, hut during that short
period the whole country seems a de
lightful garden. Japan, Indeed, has
been given the name of “Cherry Bio»
tom band." Japanese are trying to
cultivate a type of cherry tree
which w ill blossom three times
a year Instead of only once. In thia
way It Is hoped that Japan may be
made even more popular as a holiday
resort. They are passionate lover»
of natural beauty, and the cherry
trees seen In every gnrden are grown
for flowers nnd not for frulL
Even the clock tlint does Its duty
lias lime to strike.
