That if, a jji'^a -'•''' numbtr of married women, mothers, and excellent housekeepers who are i beginning' to do some of thi> things i they have wanted to do aU sheir lives i but hi!\ e uevi-r done because of the i press of housework? I have soen quite a little of it .in roy own little: ciroie, and I have been wondering If it is "purely local," or if it is nation-' wide. I For instance, there is one woman of thirty-six who has alwayo wonted to study art. Up until this fall her| artistic instinct ha.i expressed itself! in cutting over her old dresses for ; dauRhter, and ruttinj; down father's j old pants for sor.. The dresses have been really rather wonderful for style,; and all cut without a pattern. The] mother had excellent ideas, but with i ro training whatever she d'iil not j know ho.v to express them. This fall : she n.ide a groat resolve. Across the road from h?r home is a school housa wln!rc night classes arc held. Amonjj other subjects taught isj dressmaking design, and a part ofi the course is le.5sons in drav.ing. She | decided to take up the work. Last! week she^hov.ed me a desiijjn for lace I which .she had drawn, and which her ' t»acher said was better than the work of some of the students in .his day classes v.ho had studied drawing for ^ years. I 'â- You fever can tell what you're go- , Ing to bj called on to do these days," i she i-ays, and "Tom and I thought I might as well be getting prepared. If I can do something with dressmaking I'll be in better iihape to take .".Tve of, myself. And, anyway, I've always wanted to draw. I hoped one of the j children would take it up, but theyi can't draw' a straight line, so I am at! It, after all these years wishing." j Tlii-n there is the woman next door.' Before her marriage she studied mu-l fcic. But like many another woman I music went into the discard when the , babies arr.ved and dishwashing and scrubbing stiffened her fingers. The â-  girls are now fifteen and seventeen years old. They ha'.e had several terms of piano Icsrons, and still have to be driven to practice. A month ago the mother said over the back ! fence : I "I want the girls to begin their mu- ' Bic, but I dread it. There is al- ' ways such a time to get them to , practice. Seems funny, when I've , always loved it and would give a : good deal even now for their chance." | 1 thought of my fr.iendi who is. drawing. "Why don't you take the chance?" I asked, "Let the girls wash' the dishes and mo)) the floor and you | take the music /essons. They are old enough to sllo^v some talent, if they have it, and if they don't care enough about music to practice for love of it, why drive them to it? You' spend the money on yourself." '"Do you think I could?" she asked w.istfully. "George wants me to. \Ve were talking about it just last night." "Of course you could," I said. "You can play better now than either of the girls." A half liour later I heard her at the piano, and for two hours lihe played scaler and finger exercises. At noon yhe called across, "My fin- gers aren't near a.i stiff as 1 thought they'd be. I am going down this afternoon to see about my Iss.'^ons." J'crhaps the most fcurprising per- son, though, 's the (juiet neighbor around the corner who nlway.i comes in if anyone is sick and does more in ten minutes than the average woman would do in an hour. She has had a Jargo family, six children. The younge.'it Ih now fourteen, and lliey all assume that niotiior is their personal properly flnd, incidentally, that .sho isn't quite so wise as they arc and needs careful watching. They have been in llie habit all their pert young UvcB of telllnjf mother what she ought to do and deciding things for her. This fall ihe made a decision for hcr- (telf. She decided to go down and take the Red Cross nurses' aldscourso. The family was aghast. Tho i<lea of mother going down town to do anything was beyond ihem. They told her outright she was too old, and polite'y liintcd that hIic wa.'in't liright enougli. Hut for once mother was "sot." "I've always wanted to be a nurse," she stuck to it, "and doctors all eay 1 do bettor in a ^.ick-room than lots of trained nursen. You i never can tell wliat'n going Ui hap- 1 pen. F'ftther may drop off any mi- nute with hl.H weak hee.rt, and the: chlldrciT won't want mo in their | homes. I'm going to get in shape to be independent if the need comes." Slo mother carried ths day, and is now, and proudly tell everybody how lessons she brings homo on hrr twicu- H-weck trips down to her cla.Hsos. The fhmily think It quite thi thing now, aij produly tell everybody how the folks in charge of the course say thHt mother is the best in Uio class. I don't know whether it is the war which has brought then' women :.ut Or nut. Hut whatever it ti, I iiki! it. (Ihildrtr Mf out of the way and mi,- t'ie>.'

Would it not be a splendid thing for us to ihink that school days never 8je over -D.H. Hot or Cold. An aversion for lukewarmness, whether in matters of political and rclifr.ous allegiance ov in affairs of diet, is charactcristi? of the race. Andi. the hostess makes no mistake when she serves a beverage cither piping, steaming hot or very, very cold; but when the tea is brought in neither hot or ccid, but just in be- tween, she is sure of pleasing no one. ^ One of the first rules that the pro- fessional cook is given is to serve hot things hot, and cold things cold, and to serve nothing in between. One wonders why this i"!. One wonders why, since we have been told that | iced drinks r.re not entirely beneficial,' and it has even been suggested that cancerous growths iu the diijestive system arc sometimes produced of very hot liquids â€" one wonders why; there should be a;-, innate repugnance on the part of human folk for the lukewarm drink or viand. This is as good an explanation as anyone can suggest: Bacteria breed in lukewarm temperatures. They cannot breed as long as the temper- ature is quite as tinfavorable to their breeding, and likewise kills bacteria already developed. Hence instinct', teaches the savage to drink water , from tho (lool whose water is cold and ^ to avoid the pcol or spring where the j water is warm. Or rather nature makes tho one palatable and the oth- er unpalatable. ITEMS OF INTEREST Relating to War Activities in Which Women Have a Part. In the Wumen's War Museum now on exhibition In tho Whitcchapol Art Gallery, London, there Is a stall de- voted to the Queen's War Work for Women I''und. Among the many cx- hibit.s Is a portrait ot Queen Mary which is being given to every woman In India who had a relative killed In the war. One of the tradeB calling for the greatest skill Is the making of com- pa.sses. This work had never been un- dertaken by women until dilution of labor became necessary. Of the in- finlto nuniber of delicate parts de- manding absolute accuracy, women have succeeded In making all but two or Ihrco and even these will shortly bo to tboir credit. The Roll of Honor of Krlt'sh women who have given up their lives that lirl- tain might cnduro now uunibora 650 and the Hat is by no means complete. This roll regards eervicc and not rank and shows that, to England, this "choir Invisible" Is Indeed Immortal. It Is tho intention ot tho British Oovc<niment to make llio Iiiipftrlul War Museum a record ns complete as is humanly possible of tho way In which England did her part In winning this war. I'lvery Hrllisli subjoct sliould In- form himscdf thoroughly as to what this exhibit liiciudes. Where each workB at high pressure to oontributo tho part expected from liliu he Is not prepared to either know or uppreclnto what other equally devoted patriots have given as their share towards vic- tory. This exhibit will do much to dis- pel that lack and create genuine ap- preclotlon of the fact that all work was equally valuable. During Ihu war the corporation ot (JlaKgow employed women In its parks, on It.s tramways, in its clerical de- partments and Us bacteriological la- boratory. Mrfl. Biiriuigli Loach, Chief Control- ler of Queen Mary's .'VuxllUary Corps (Waac's) began doing "her lilt" as one of tho first recruits of that splendid mother of patriotic Dritlsli women's organiijatlons tho "Women'.s Li^glon." That was In H«ipteiiiber, 1915. and from tluf day Mrs. Loach has never routed. When tho armlsllco wbh sign- ed Mro. Leach liud under her 40,000 women and girl.<» of whom nearly 7,000 were In Franco.

It is just libout 15 years ago that the Wright BroH.ecs made their first successful tlight in an airplane, and now people are talking about flying across tho Atlantic. Machines have been built in tlie last year capable of a speed of about three mile;) a minute; an aviator has risen 28,900 feat in the air, and we have airplanes capable of lifting 15 tons. The single flight re- cord is 24 hours, ns compared with the first r>9 seconds' flight of Wilbur Wrijrht. It is doubtful if in the his- tory of invention there has been any such record of progress in an equal time. In view of the thousands of lives that have been lost in airplr.ne crash- es it is worth noting that Wilbur W'right lived to succumb years later to typhoid, never having had an acci- dent, and that his brother Orville still survives and bids fair to reach a ripe old age. He was in one accident, in v/hich he suffered a broken leg, his companion, Lieut. Selfridge, losing his life and becoming the first victim of an airplane disaster. A Toy Was the Inspiration. It is said that the interest of the Wright Brothers in flying was first aroused when their father presented them with a toy called a helicoptre, a fragile thing that would fly for a short distance. The plaything natur- ally did not long survive, but its wonders never faded from the minds of tlie boys, though years were to intervene before they began the seri- ous study of the flying problem. At school in Dayton, Ohio, they are said to have taken little interest in thy literary or artistic branches of their study, but early showed them- sjlvrs possessed of a strong analytical faculty and were keen on mathematics. Their school studies were cut short, however, and they opened a small bicycle repair sliop, which they later developed into a niodeat little factory. Here, besides making a comfortable living, they developed their mechanic- al akiil. Which of "them thought of the flying machine first is a moot point. It appears that the idea was in the mind of both for years before either ventured to speak of it serious- ly to the other for fear of good- natured ridicule. However, the notion at last got it- self expressed somehow, and they set to work in their spare lime with the conviction that in the development of the idea of the gliding plane lay the secret of ultimate success. Their first model, a sort of improved kite, gave them reason U> believe that they were on the right track, and after a couple of experiments they built a biirgcr model on the same principle. Model followed model, each a little bigirer than its predpce.>.?or, and each of them adding to the enthusinam of the young inventors. How They Obtained Capital. Then came the time when they had spent about all their money, without, of course, having received a dollar in return. It became necessary that they should either give up the fascinating pursuit or raise more capital. They appealed to Iheiv father, a retired bishop of the United Brethren Church, whose sole property consisted of a small farm in Iowa, and he, without a moments hesitation, sold it and gave his sons the necessary cash. With the firi.1 machine built with these funds they moved to the sand dunes of North Carolina, there to continue in more favorable circum- stances the investigations that they hail begun in Ohio. Their flrst tenta- tive flights were made at Kitty Hawk in 1000, and their Vnachlne was supposed to fly on the kite prin- ciple nnd carry a man against wind blowing from 15 to 20 miles un hour. The first experiment was successful, alth<iugh there was no man aboard, and they concluded that they hud only to increase the wdng surface by a comparatively small area to get the necessary lifting power. To their astonishment they found that this in- creaso made an almost imperceptible difference, and they came to the con- clusion that they were either on the wrong track altogether or that thu tables of air pressure in common use were at fault. It developed that the hitter was the case, and the Wrights contiiuicd. For some time thereafter they con- tented themselves with gliding down the hills, against the wind, nnd found it was easy to make fiik'hts of several hundred yards in this way without danger or diniciilly. In 1002 they built their llr«t motor. It weighed T.'iO pounds, but here again they re- ceived u check. OhslncleH Encountered. They had supposed that there were in existence ti'.blos by which they could calculate from their own knowl- edge of air pressure the speed at which it would lie necessary for the Iiropellers to spin in order to drive tho machine. They learned that there were no such tables, but only a at't of III tinuated empirical formulae. Here again they had to make their owti «x- pcvir.)eiiti and i'«ly on' their o^vn ob- servations to give them what they re- quired. By this time they hud gone so far that it wa^impo.'isible to discour- age them, and so they persevereJ until on December 17. JUO;!, tliey''produce(l a machine which rose from the ground by means of its own power, made a short circle and alighted safely. It was nearly two 'years later be- fore their machine was capable of fly- ing six miles. This acconiplii hed, the Wrights had all the capital thry re- (luired at their disposal. They were on the highway to fame nnd fortune, and never afterward were they obliged to look back. THE FUTURE OF THE SUBMARINE MAY RECLAIM OCEAN'S TnEASURES.
