DOINGS OF TIIZ VAN LOONS The Typewriter That Completes the Modern Business Organization. The Royal Typewriter is necessary to make a(big business organixation complete. It was invented and is designed and built to meet the typewriter needs of the business world today. It is the finishing touch to that office efficiency which the ag gressive business organixation must have. It fits exactly into the high standard of organization, of per sonnel and of equipment that the live business house must main tain. It rounds out the effectiveness, the sureness, the exactness, the 'specialized ability of the organization. It ends excessive repairs, because it is built for long life and for the finest work. - It is bought with the confident knowledge that it will not have to be "traded-out" after one or two years of use. . ; r ;'":;!: i And this verv quality of excellence is what makes the work done on the ROYAL stand alone as an exhibit of superiority. The precise harmony of all moving parts, the swift and sure me chanical response, the perfect presswork all these enable the typist to do more work, to do it better and to do it with less ef fort.

'The rufl him been used for t nlu rlee for carrying various cargoe," writes Day Allen Wllley In St Minn ies. "It carried Egyptian cotton mi the Nile; It I In srrvlre on the Kongo river In Africa and the Gsnge In In dia; but the raft which la It own cargo I that composed of luge a method of water transportation that originated In Nova Scotia a half cen tury ago. " ' "Tree trunks cat from Nova Scotia forest were moved on wooden roller to one of the harbors, where the logs were plied In layer and hound to gether with twisted wire rope. The raft wa to be taken to a lumber mill on New York harbor, where the log were to be cut Into timber for building purpose. To haul the raft while op the aes, one end of a heavy wire rope wa fastened to It bow, the other wa secured to tb rear deck of a eteam tugboat It started on It ocean jour ney, but never reuched It destination, for a gale of wind sprsng up, the tow lug rope parted, and the raft drifted out to nea. Later, some of the Inge were found washed ashore on tbe Nor wegtan coast ? "In the Northwest the transportation of lumber la raft la very extensive. They are of enormous dimensions, In ahape closely resembling a cigar, hav ing It greateet number at the middle and tsiering to a point at both ends. While these rafts re of varying sixes, the smallest usually contain at least , five thousand piece of timber, ranging from 80 to 110 feet In length and from two to nearly live feet la diameter at the butt "Consequently, some of the raft , made In this peculiar fashion are near j ly at long as tbe largest transatlantic liners, measuring no lea thaa 00O feet from end to end." EXPLAINS LAUGH OF BABIES ! W Com Into Thl World of Borrow With a Mysterlou Sens of Humor. The human love of nonsense la a dl- I vine mystery. We have often heard pesHiuusts uecwre mm we come into the world weeping. It I truer, I think, te,ay that, we come Into It laughing. For laughter In a baby seem to be Its first conscious apprehension of some thing outside Its emnil needs and pnlna. It may cry merely because a pin la sticking Into It, but It laughs because already It ee something that muxes It luugh, It know not why, something that catches the eye or ear and seems Irresistibly funny to It , There Is nothing more mysterious than a buby'i sense of humor. It fre quently loses It as It grows up, together with the other trailing clouds of glory, but most babies are bora with It To satisfy It nursery rhyme were Invent ed, and to aatlafy tbe same instinct In grown people "The Hunting of the Hoark," that Incomparable classic, came into being, and Csverly and Gil bert and Lear stood on their heads, so to speak, and performed such verbal antlca before high heaven as must have made the very angels langh. ' I When the Owl and the Pussy Cat, - having dined on mice and slice of ( quince, "baud In hand, on the edge of ' the aand," "dunce by the light of the moon," there I omethlng which, aa , Stevenson wa fond of saying, delights I the great heart of man. But of course. witn uieae modern artists or nonsense there Is usually a deliberate attempt at the grotesque and the absurd. We know why we ure laughing, but with the old-fashioned rhymes of which I am chiefly thinking, we laugh or, for that matter, cry, perhaps without having any reason to give.
