TRIALS OF AN EXPLORER.
Sickness and Agony That Livingstone
Endured In Africa.
Writing on David Livingstone, mis
sionary and African explorer, Sir Har
ry H. Johnston says in the British
Geographical Journal: "During the
winter or rainy season of 1868-9 Liv
ingstone was very ill. He had been
wet times without number and suf
fered from terrible pains in the chest
and pneumonia. He was often semi
delirious and subject to delusions, such
as that the bark of the trees was cov
ered with figures and faces of men.
He thought often . of his children and
friends, and his thoughts seemed al
most to conjure them up before him.
For the first time in his life he was
being carried and could not raise him
self to a sitting position. The Arabs
were very kind to him in his extreme
weakness, but the vertical sun. blis
tering any part of the skin exposed to
it. tried him sorely in the day marches.
"In July. 1870. his feet were almost
consumed with Irritable, eating ulcers,
pulsating with pain. These sores
were obviously communicated by mos
quitoes fro'n the blood of the wretch
ed slaves who were tortured with
them. Livingstone could fall asleep
when be wished at the shortest notice.
A -int and a shady tree under which
to spread It would at any time afford
him a refreshing sleep. But In his
last years of travel sleep was often
made sad by the realistic dreams of
happy English life from which he wak
ened to find himself ill and consumed
with anxiety that he might not live
to complete his mission.'
"After ISiIH he suffered much from
the results of the decay and loss of
his molar teeth, so that imperfect mas
tication of rough African food Induced
severe dyspepsia, and his bodily
strength weakened under a condition
of permanent malnutrition. Stanley,
by relieving him when he did. gave
him at least two more years of life.
a certain measure of happiness and the
sweet consolation that he was not for
gotten and that the magnitude of his
discoveries was appreciated."

Graded a Half Mile For $7.50.
One traction engine, one road grader
. and three men graded a half mile of
road in one day. This was accom
plished on a Riley county (Kan.) road
it a cost of $7.50. The engine, rus
I'.ng on kerosene, consumed fuel at the
rate of twenty gallons a day, which,
it a cost of 7 cents a gallon, cost
11.50. Three men were necessary to
8o the work, one to run the engine and
two ou the grader.
With the exception of the engineer,
the work can be handled easily by la
borers. The cost of road grading
ranges from $15 to $50 a mile, depend
InK on the soil and condition of the
road, the width graded and the prrice
of labor.- ,, . '.. : . . .
VACATION WORK
Now Is the Time For Making Ad
vance Christmas Presents.
NOVELTY IN CENTERPIECES.
Here's a Brand New Idea In Embroid
ery Hoops They Are Made of
French Oilcloth, Which Is Used as a
Foundation Stretcher. -
Now is the time to do some advance
work for Christmas.
The new designs in art needlework
are practical. The materials are wash
able and durable, and the most promi
nent stitches are those which require
the least labor. The busy woman of to
day likes designs which quickly and
easily give effective results.
Linens and crashes in white and nat
ural tones are seen in centerpieces,
dresser scarfs and pillow covers.
Dresser scarfs and pin cushions in
white pique have scalloped edges and
embroidery done in color.
Coronation and Torpedo Braids.
Coronation braid is used in combina
tion with torpedo braid. Some pretty
effects are in daisy designs, with the
centers worked in color In long and
short stitch outlined with torpedo
braid.
Darning, or Persian embroidery as it
is called, is given quite a slant, produc
ing a decidedly new appearance. The
designs and colors are in Persian ef
fects, and the darning stitch is worked
over a tinted background. Many of the
pillow -covers, table runners and dress
er scarfs are good imitations of Per
sian rugs, both in the design and color
ing. Punch work is still used, but in com
bination with French knots. French
knots in various sizes will be exten
sively used in decoration. They are
usually in floral form in the soft pastel
tones, forgetmenots being the most
popular. The work is done in white
or color. An attractive design is a
French basket filled with floral designs
in French knots. Dresser scarfs, etc..
in white linen have designs outlined
in small French knots. Dutch designs
are effective worked in blue knots, with
the edge finished with cluny lace.
Insets of hand made cluny lace have
the edges worked in solid knots. Pil
low covers, centerpieces and scarfs in
natural color linen are often decorated
with malta braid.
Oilcloth Instead of Hoops.
A new idea is a centerpiece of white
linen and plate jloilies made in one. It
is cut round to fit a table and six
pieces about eighteen inches in length
extend from the centerpiece, leaving a
space sufficiently large for a bread and
butter plate doily. The edges are
scalloped and the embroidery is done
in eyelet work.
Instead of using an embroidery hoop
for small stitches and dainty work like
letters on handkerchiefs and pillow
slips French oilcloth is often used for
a stretcher. Cut a square rather larg
er than the figure or initial to be em
broidered and baste it with fine cotton
on to the back of the material. The
glazed surface prevents the needle
from piercing the oilcloth, while its
pliability enables it to be bent easily
over the finger when necessary.
Cause of His Anger.
An angry advertiser rushed into the
office of an English paper recently and
shouted: "See here, our ad. ought to
read, 'Thousands of patrons are wear
ing trousers of our makeJ " The fore
man of the composing room looked np
and weakly said, "Well?" The irate
advertiser threw down a copy of the
paper containing the ad. The com
positor had made it "matrons."
Light From Meteors.
The trains of light left by meteors
are often visible for several seconds
after the meteor has vanished. Occa
sionally they remain visible several
minutes and in a few rare cases they
have been seen for more than an hour
In the case of those that last a long
time they are seen to waver, become
deformed like smoke blown by the
wind and finally to dissipate.

A NATURAL RIDDLE
Attraction of Gravitation Is a
Mystery to Science.
IT CONTROLS THE UNIVERSE.
Yet That Wonderful Foree That Di
rects and Regulates Moons, Planets,
Suns and Stars Without Visible
Means of Connection Is Inexplicable.
The mystery of mysteries In science
is the attraction of gravitation that
very force of nature that is the most
familiar to us all. It seems strange
that the most familiar- thing in the
world should be at the same time the
most inexplicable, but so it is.
In order to see clearly wherein the
mystery consists, let us first consider
what gravitation appears to be. It is
gravitation -that gives the property of
weight to all bodies. If there were no
gravitation we could float like thistle
downs and infinitely better than this
tledowns, for they, too, are finally
brought down by gravitation. ,
It is gravitation that brings a can
non ball eventually . to the earth, no
matter bw swiftly it .may be project
ed. The faster it starts the farther it
will go, but during every second of its
flight it drops the same distance ver
tically toward the earth, whether the
speed imparted to it by the powder is
500 or 3.000 feet per second. Gravita
tion acts on a moving body exactly as
well us on one at rest.
It is gravitation that curbs the mo
tion of the moo u and keeps it in an
orbit of which the earth is the, active
focus.
Po. too. It is gravitation that gov
erns the earth iu its motion around the
sun. preventing it from flying away
into boundless space. Astronomy shnws
that gravitation acts between all the
plants and 'all the stars and controls
their motions with respect to one an
other. N'ow. this mysterious force appears to
be an attraction, as if there were elas
tic cords connecting all the bodies iu
space and tending to draw them to
gether. But space, as far as our senses
can detect, is empty. There are no
elastic cords and no physical connec
tions whatever between astronomical
bodies or between a flying stone or
cannon ball and the earth. How. then,
can there be an attraction? In order
that a body may lw attracted or drawn
there must be something to draw it.
Gravitation does the trick, but com
pletely hides from us the mechanism
through which It acts. We can discov
er no mechanism at all.
When ail unfortunate aeroplanlst
drops from his machine at a height of
a thousand feet he begins at once to
fall toward the earth as if it were pull
ing him. But how can it pull if it
has nothing to pull with? You may
think at first sight that it is the air
which acts as an intermediary, but
that is not so.' because the earth and
the moon "pull" upon one another with
a force equal to the strength of a steel
cable 500 miles in diameter. But there
is no air and no other tangible thing iu
the open space. 240.000 miles across,
that gaps between the moon and the
earth.
Then, gravitation exerts the same
force at every instant No matter how
fast the falling aeronaut may be de
wending at any moment, gravitation
will keep on adding speed as if he had
just started. Disregarding the slight
retardation produced by the resistance
of the air. he will fall sixteen feet in
the first second, forty-eight feet in the
second second, eighty feet in the third
second, gaining thirty-two feet in his
velocity during every second after the
first.
From a height of 1.000 feet be will
come down in about eight seconds, and
will strike the ground with a velocity
of about 251! feet per second. From a
height of 10.000 feet he would fall in
about twenty-five seconds and would
strike with a velocity of 400 feet per
second.
The samekind of calculation can
be applied to the gravitation between
the earth and the moon, if the moon
were uot in motion across the direc
tion of the earth's "pull" it would fall
to the earth in about 110 hours.
Now. to return to the mystery, bow
is this force exerted? Is it really a
"lM.as It seems to be? The answer
G FOR HARRY K. THAW'S .RETURN
iu wdicu sciem-e is tenuTug is tnac in
stead of being a pull. 'gravitation Is a
push: In other words, that the falling
aeroiiaut Is p"sh1 toward the ground
and the moon is pushed toward the
earth.
On the face of it one might think
that nothing was gained by this
theory, because it seems as impossible
that a push should be exerted without
a tangible connection as a pull. But
the clew is found in the supposed prop
erties of that Invisible, intangible, all
pervading medium called the ether.
This, to be sure. Is explaining one
mystery by another, for we know
nothing about the ether except that
It conveys the Waves of light and elec
tricity: but. at any rate, it affords a
conceivable explanation of gravitation.
Dr. Charles K. Brush's theory regards
the ether is being filled with a pecul
iar form of waves and that material
bodies may Intercept these waves in
such a way as to be pushed toward
one another on account of the dimin
ished effect of the ether waves in 'the
space between the bodies. Garrett P.

PLANS FOR ILLINOIS ROADS.
Would Allow Various Counties to De
fray All Expenses.
Hard road building came into the Il
linois senate in a new form when Al
bert C. Clark of Chicago put in a bill
providing for a county road system.
It provides for a referendum plan of
appointing three county road commis
sioners in a county that may decide to
take up hard road building. These
points are urged in favor of the plan:
First. It is an equitable plan, spread
ing the cost of constructing main roads
over all the taxable property in the
county.
Second. It tends to make continuous
main roads, with no breaks at the
township lines. This desirable. feature
Is never attained under the township
plan, while town line roads invariably
suffer.
Third. Money enough is secured to
improve difficult pieces of road that
could never be touched under township
supervision.
Fourth. Under the county plan there
are always two experienced men on the
board. This tends to retain skilled em
ployees in their positions, and it is true
that county roads, as a rule, are dis
tinguishable by their superior work
manlike features.
Fifth. The county plan tends to
economize in the matter of road build
ing equipment

FRENCH FAMILY DINNERS.
People Who Eat Sensibly and Make
the Most of Their Food. -
A typical French dinner not an ex
ceptional one. mark you. but such a
dinner as a small tradesman's family
would have is incomparably superior
to the plain roast dinner.
There would be. first of all. a few
relishes, according to the season of the
year. Radishes, ice cold: sardines,
olives, caviare. Just a little of each with
which tg awakeu the appetite, then
the soup to excite gently the liquids of
the throat and stomach, then a little
entree usually a bit of .fish with its
appropriate vegetable, or a handful fit
vegetables flavored with meat sauce.
Then, and not till then, does the chief
course appear. -
It may be a roast, or game, or chick
en, or chops, but in no case will it be
anything which is not in harmony
with the previous courses and it will
be eaten in moderation, for the edge
of the diner's appetite will have been
dulled by the lighter foods which have
preceded it. With it comes the salad
'"varied throughout the year by all
the possible, changes of the season, and
never, never by any possibility will it
be such a dreadful hybrid as the ro
maine; strawberry and green pepper
thing. After the salad there will be
fruit or mellow cheese, and then cof
fee. , :
It will take two hours to eat such a
dinner, but it will take only half what
the typical American dinner costs to
pay for it and there will be no indi
gestion afterward no matter of what
the dinner is composed. Princess Has

Hat-7870-7877 'jft
Unusually attractive are the frocks
now being made up for the younger
set. They embody all the necessary
style points of the season's fashions,
and yet are distinctive and original
in many of the minor details. Because
of the smart vests that are now worn
in both costumes and tailored suits,
they gain an added attraction.
New Styles for Girls.
This is particularly true of the dress
portrayed in figure No. 7877. It shows
a young girl's costume that is adapted
for the lovely new duvetyn or benga
line in Burgandy red or Basket green.
The vest could be of contrasting col
ored silk showing a dot in soft colors
or perhaps Roman-striped satin.
Tha closing is at the side-front, the
vest fastening with small fancy but
tons, pearl, or the new triangular shap
ey chrystal buttons. The collar and
cuffs are of contrasting fabric, as is
the girdle. Full-length slaeves are in
harmony with the prevailing tendency
in dress. The two-piece skirt gives
the effect of the tier model that is
so much favored this season. Three
