Show So far there are no fat aeronauts. By the way. is It possible to play golf is Esperanto? An American had the latest word regarding the best aviator. It takes a pretty clever man to get ahead of a meter of any kind. As yet the English language is not the least bit jealous of Esperanto. Wireless has proven that it can create cre-ate Just as much excitement as an aeroplane. When an automobile strikes a railroad rail-road train, the victims are those in the machine. Another way to attain greatness is to be made president of a hay-fever Bufferers' society. Paris Is losing her cab horses, but no noticeable decrease in the price of meats Is reported. It Is easier to muzzle the canines than It Is to keep firearms out of the hands of possible assassins. Don't think It's by accident that a woman hits the object directly behind her. She merely finesses her aim. Keeping cool would be easier If the fellows who have advice to give on the Bubject would keep quiet. A seismograph Is a very useful Instrument In-strument It seems to keep all earth-rjuakes earth-rjuakes at least 2,000 miles away. Boston now attains notice as a port of entry for smuggled Chinamen. You Blmply cannot keep a good town down. Another sleepwalker has walked out at a third-story window. Slumber pedestrians pe-destrians should sleep in the basement base-ment Boston boasts that it has the oldest old-est shop girl In the world. She should be ready presently for musical comedy chorus work. These New Yorkers who spend $6,000 a year on dress must be big men in order to find room to hang all the garments. "Powder and cream are a necessity to protection for girls who fear sunburn," sun-burn," says a headline. We suggest living in the cellar. Princess Mary of England has learned how to run a typewriter. Now If some of the dukes and lords would only take up honest toil! And now the peace advocates will find that the new gun which shoots 10,000 times a minute is the thing that is really going to stop warfare. The university professor who thinks mathematics and poetry are alike has probably never tried mathematics on a romantic girl in the mooniight. A Maine man tells a story of a frightened deer jumping Into his lap while he was out driving In a buggy. Is the gentleman sure that his spelling spell-ing is correct? According to a learned professor, the typewriter is the poetry of motion. Presumably he intended to add that the motion must be supplied by the right young woman operator. An English woman Is preparing to By across the English channel and back. Her manager should see to it that on the French side she does not go as far as the shops in Paris. That new gun will be but an additional addi-tional argument for the agitators for a universal peace, also a weapon in the hands of some poor nation that does not believe In that order of things. While the airship Is still in its experimental ex-perimental Btage and ambitious aeronauts aero-nauts are meeting with accidents repeatedly, re-peatedly, it Is still evident that aerial navigation has become a permanent feature of travel. In Europe preparations prepara-tions continue to be made for regular traveling schedules in airships, notwithstanding not-withstanding the disasters that have happened to some of these craft. A New Jersey man has discovered that mosquitoes eat plants. This is an important natural discovery. It has hitherto been supposed, and with a good deal of circumstantial evidence to support the supposition, that the moBquito was strictly carnivorous in Its diet and exclusively nocturnal In Its meal hours. Any hope to the contrary con-trary will be thankfully received by a bitten, angry and sleepy world of humans. |
