PERFECT FLIERS.
A GAS LEAK.
Eagles, Vultures and Similar Birds
Are In This Class.
It is a fact that those ingenious and
flaring minds that devote themselves
to the solutiou of the problem of avia­
tion have given no small (¡art of their
preliminary study to considering tlie
manner of flight of birds.
A strange result of this investigation
is the conclusion, uow generally in­
dorsed. that, as a whole, the bird world
Is not to be regarded as perfect lu Its
attainment of flight. For instance. It
is contended by the best authorities
that all birds obliged continually to
flap their wings—and in this category
may be mentioned sparrows, finches,
thrushes, crows, etc.—are still In an
imperfect stage of advancement.
In the uext class, as being a degree
advanced, are put such birds ns pl
geons, swallows, etc., which are able
to dart ahead for a space after they
have gained a good start by the vigor
ous flapping of their pinions.
In the third class the birds that may
be said to lie perfect fliers are the
eagles, vultures, albatrosses and situ
liar big birds possessing the ability to
rise and fall and sway and soar in the
air Indefinitely without a perceptible
movement of their wings. It Is. of
course, known to every person of an
observant turn that these big fowl are
able to soar Into the air gradually uii
til at last they disappear from the
eye of the watcher, it being almost
impossible to detect any movement be
youd a slight occasional motion of the
tall.—New York Tribune.
After Results That May Come From
Hunting It With a Light.
Tbe folly of buntlug for a leak tn a
gas pipe with a lighted match is nut
so much because of tbe dauger of an
explosion as of other damage, as Is
shown by the experience of a house­
holder not lung ago.
One or two small leaks were detect­
ed by going over all the pipes and
bolding a lighted match to them. The
smell of gas ceased, but was replaced
a few hours later by tbe smell of burn­
ing wood.
Another visit to the cellar showed a
charred floor Joist a little distance
above a gas pipe. There was no ap­
parent cause for this until a very close
examination resulted lu the flndiug of
a tiny Jet of gas which was Issuing
from the pipe beneath the beam.
It was lighted, but was so small as
to be blue in color and nearly invisi­
ble. It had been lighted by’ the match
used In the first investigation, but had
not been noticed.
“If that leak bad happened to be In a
lead Joint Instead of an Iron connec­
tion,” said a gas man. “there would
probably have been work for the Are
brigade. Tbe smallest possible Jet of
lighted gas issuing through lead will
In time heat and melt the lead and
make tbe leak larger until a big flame
Is Issuing.
“This may make a fire hours later
In the dead of night or at n time when
no one Is In tbe bouse. The only prop­
er way to look for these very small
leaks is to paint the suspected pipe
with a smooth soap lather. Just ns In
the case of a bicycle tire, the tiniest
leak will blow a bubble in the lather,
and there you are.” — London Tele­
graph.

Primitive Huts In the Villages of the
Native Indians.
The Mexican Indian huts In tbe vil­
lages and upon the ranches of the
lower Rio Grande border region of
Texas have a style of architecture and
construction that Is distinctly their
own. This type of primitive building
Is rapidly passing out of existence. At
many places on the border families of
Mexicans have abandoned their Jacals
and moved into more pretentious
homes.
No money outlay Is necessary in
erecting the old style picturesque struc­
tures; neither is a knowledge of car­
pentry needed. A double row of up­
right poles firmly set or driven Into the
ground forms the framework for the
walls. Between these two rows of
poles are placed other poles or sticks
of shorter length, forming a thick and
compact w’all. At each of the four
corners of the building posts are set.
reaching to a height of about eight
feet. Roughly hewn stringers are laid
from one post to another, and to these
stringers are tied other poles that form
the framework of the walls.
Tlie
strong fiber from the maguey plant or
strips of buckskin are used to tie the
poles into position. The rafters are
tied to tbe ridgepole and the stringers
in the same manner. At one end of
the building is built the opening
through which the smoke of the inside
fire may ascend. Stoves are unknown
among these Mexicans, and the cook­
ing is all done upon tbe ground.—Kan­

Rabbits, monkeys, Jacks-In-the-box,

erything had been displayed, manipu­

shopper, but still she could not make

“I wanted to get something suitable
for my little nephew,” she reiterated
for the thousandth time.
“Yes, madam,” responded the weary
assistant. "You told me that when
you came in. but I think your nephew
