What aa Airship Costs How. Tha oresent cost of bulldlnar an air. ahip is about the selling; price of a 'good touring automobile. An ordinary aero plane, fitted with wheels on which It must run to gain rising force, and without machinery, will cost the pres , ent-day maker $1,000. A gasoline motor of 21 -horsepower will cost 11,800, Its Installation $60. and the screw and its Installation 1100 more. These are the figures. that an. Inventor has named aa the cost of his own machine. The Wright brothers offered their aeroplane rights to the government for $25,000, Herring asked 120,000, and Scott is said to have asked $1,000. The government some years ago appropriated something like $60,000 for Professor Langley'a ex periments with heavler-than-alr ma chines, and the money was not deemed thrown away, though the ma- cnine was not a success. fennel (SpeHst IMspstfH ta The Jnaraalt Emrolttsburg, kid- Oct.

Tha Comfort of Passenger. By the time thse factories haye come into existence, many Important points in airship construction will have to be solved--Tlie-olestion f -warming the passengers and protecting them from the wind has not yet occupied tub siiemion. 10 mane me air warm er would require an additional weia-ht- a thing to be avoided whon every ounce win count, wn aeronaut, wno adver tised 60 years ago that he would sail from New York to London, proposed to fenerate the heat for the car under his alloon by slaking lime. Others have ronowed with alcohol stoves. But tbeso cannot be used on the aeroplane of the present day. to protect tne passengers from the wind would call for a device that would offer too great resistance to tne air. Already lighter and mora durable en gines are oeing manufactured to meet the demands of airship, makers. Pel terle has- done away with tha heavy r flvwheela on his engine .to lessen tha weight, and nas seven cylinders, star shaped, which exactly distribute the ex plosion. Santos Dumont'a latest engine weighs onlv five pounds ber horse-now- r, and the perfectly balanced working parts keep the ship free from vibration, Small petrol engines weighing only two and a half pounds per horse-power are on the market. Air-cooled engines hava . superseded water-cooled, as they dispense with gearing and pumps and so lessen the weight. Man-power alone will be of little usa In propelling the airship of , tne i u lure, ior a man continuously 'exert only one tenth horse-power, and can support and drive only fO pounds through the air. According to the late Professor Langley. the -greatest weight that can be sustained by a one horse power aeroplane Is $09 pounds. Tha Smuggler of tha Patnre. To the smuggler the airship presents great possibilities. Suppose he has. one that will carry only two people be sides the crew. He could travel over the sea hlmseir and bring back ra re laces and Jewelry In packages that would not exceed the bulk and weight of a man, and then take his chanoes with the revenue outter service of the skies. Here it is posslbla that Inven tion will retain the balance that has always been kept. As fast as smug gling vessels are built and put ..into usf, just so fast will a watchful gov ernment build swift, revenuo cutters with vigilant officers on hoard. Just so fast wilt It set captive Danoons armed with searchlights and rapid-fire gu along the coaat lines. Smuggling will no easier then than npw. but it. will have a bigger sense of risk and or dangi that will make it mora worth while to the coming free-hooters of tha skies. It -is freight of a priceless character that the merchant of - the future will rink In airships.

Even wit the seas charted by 'mariners for i centuries of world commerce, there sre treacherous winds and waves that still endanger shipping and destroy many millions or dollars every year. ids men of-the future who will chart the sklea and not the winds ana currents and dangeroua eddies will perhaps be no batter tnan tne cnariraaaers or tne seas.

I Each suggestion has come to us from actual practice, through the Clearing House of Business Systems which this Company maintains at an expense of nearly $100,000 a year,' just to give business men an opportunity to realize what the adding and listing machine can do for a business system. II Of course, it is an advertisement, fl It is not a catalog. Q It is the result of scholarly research and business experience. 0 But it is a different-from-the-usual advertise ment it gives you something for nothing because you can save time by using the ideas witbtut the Burroughs but you can save two to five times as much time, and all the work and worry, by using a Burroughs. 9 If you never used a Burroughs you'll think this an exaggeration. fl If ou 'have used one you know this is a con servative and modest estimate of the value of the machine. ' Every Bookkeeper-Yours, too Needs this Book fT There is not a bookkeeper in this country that could not use these ideas to the betterment of his work not one that could not do his work more quickly, more easily, more accurately, as a result of applying some of the suggestions. fl Thousands of Burroughs bookkeepers know this admit it gladly and are getting better pay because they have gained time and opportunity in which to do more and better work for every word on every page shows an opportunity to do more and better work and that always means better pay. 9 The new generation of bookkeepers are learning the things described in this book, fl It is a significant fact that over 200 of the leading business schools, colleges and universities have pur chased Burroughs in the past couple of years; that they are teaching their students how to apply the machine to accounting methods, shortening the work, increasing the accuracy- .These schools feel the demand for clerks who know how to grt more and better work done in a given length of time. II They are meeting it. II Are you ? 9 At first some bookkeepers prided themselves on the fact that "they could get along without a Burroughs" of course they could just as all of us can get along without the typewriter, telephone, steam cars, clocks and watches, telegraph any of the hundreds of time, work and worry savers of the aoth century but we are not foolish enough to try.
