Capillary attraction is the name for this power which causes water to rise in an absorbent substance, and the baffling part of it is its apparent sim plicity. This is just one of those natural puz zles that our greatest scientists can not solve—yet. Its real nature is no more understood than is the real na ture of electricity. But although we do not know what It is, capillary attraction is a most useful force. It holds the ink in a pen nib and in a fountain pen. By its aid the melted wax in the little crater round a candle-flame rises in the wick to keep the candle burning. So, too, the liquid flows up the wick of an oil or spirit lamp. Were it not for this force, clothes would become ‘‘bone dry’’ directly they were lifted out of the water. A great many of the automatic lubrica tors for oiling machinery depend en tirely on capillary attraction for their action; and a sponge retains the water in its pores by the same means. Capillary attraction has been sug gested as a means of attaining perpet ual motion, and some very ingenious devices have been put forward. All, however, have been proven futile by tiie laws of mechanics. Finally it is owing to capillarity that soil is able to retain a large part of the moisture it receives as rain, thus preventing the country from becoming an arid desert. » MEASURE MUST BE PERFECT Why Precise Degree of Accuracy Hat to Be Maintained in So-called Standard Bart. For most of us the knowledge that a meter is 3.37 inches longer than a yard is quite sufficient. We must know as much as that, because the metric system of measures is so wide ly employed that one constantly finds it necessary to turn meters into feet or yards. But the refinements of modern science demand a far higher degree of accuracy in measurement than is perhaps ever dreamed of in the ordinary walks of life. The pains taken to obtain precise standards of measure are almost beyond belief of one who is not familiar with scien tific methods. . Everyone knows that so-called “standard” bars, on which the exact length of the yard and the meter are marked, are in the possession of the governments of the United States, Great Britain, France and other coun tries, but everyone does not know with what care these standards have been compared and with what pa tience they have been minutely meas ured again and again. Why Priest Dislikes Horses. "The curse of my life,” said the Rev. Father Duffy, chaplain of the Sixty-ninth New York regiment, ac cording to the New York correspond ent of the Cincinnati Times-Star, “has been cavalrymen for colonels. A horse is something I can respect but never love. I once scandalized Gen eral Pershing by telling him that I thought Henry Ford made better horses than the Almighty did. Every colonel I ever saw has put me on a horse and made me miserable. I went to one of them in France, lame and crippled, to make a modest pro test, and he told me just to keep on riding and I’d be all ijght. Later that colonel told me I was ruinin’ th’ uni forms of the regiment and wearin’ out th’ knees of the men sayin’ mass on a graveled parade ground. ‘Why not have the mass somewhere else?* asked the colonel. ‘Let you all stay on your kneesj said I; ‘it’ll do you as much good as it does me to stay on that horse.’ ” Why Stylet in Tanks Change. Storage tanks with a smaller diam eter and greater, height are an im portant factor in decreasing evapo ration, according to a Texas oil com pany, now busy installing the newer design. The smaller surface of the tank, it is claimed, overcomes to a large extent the usual loss from this cause. Another special feature in the construction is the arrangement of sixteen incoming pipe lines, which are run down the inside to within a few inches of the bottom. This method serves to lessen the evaporation which would otherwise occur with the sur face being constantly disturbed by the flowing in of oil at* the top. The tanks are nineteen feet high, have a diameter of ten feet, and hold about 10,000 gallons. The old construction, it is estimated, resulted in a loss of about 20 per cent of the contents. — Popular Mechanics Magazine. Seems to Disprove Theory. Cold, miserable, hungry-looking, be draggled and disconsolate, the tiny little kitten meowed piteously; hur rying throngs passed by on tbeir way to work: some cast a pitying glance at the poor creature, but of the dozens that went scurrying on none stopped. At last there came a girl, wearing the costume of a flapper. An instant she hesitated, then, grabbing up the soiled feline, marched into a lunchroom and bought that little outcast a pint of half-and-half. And yet th&re are learned and distinguished statesmen who evince doubt as to whether or not women have souls. —Washington Star. : DYED HER BABY’S COAT, A SKIRT AND CURTAINS WITH “DIAMOND DYES” Each package of ‘‘Diamond Dyes” con tains directions so siirmle any woman can dye or tint her old, worn, faded things new.

He was quite evidently a plumber, and as he sat with his “best girl” back of the Woman upon the bus he explained that he had been working a little harder lately—the cold weather made them work harder in those buildings which were unheated and in which they were putting the plumb ing. It was- different in the summer, when the buildings were restfulty cool. And then the bus passed by the big “mansions” on the drive. The plumber began to boast. Pride Is so curious a thing. “My dad,” he said, “had the con tract to put in the plumbing in almost every swell house in this city. Yep,” he continued boastfully, “he’s got the finest lot of customers you’d ever find.” And the girl whispered happy and proud admiration of the splendid fam ily into which she was about to marry.—Chicago Journal.

Why Farmers are Turning to Jbr Economical Transportation In 1922 Chevrolet jumped from seventh to second place in sales of all cars, and to first place in sales, of fully equipped modern cars* Purchases by farmers were the chief factor in this ' remarkable development. Farmers want automobiles not only of low first price, but also of low later cost for operation and maintenance. They want room, comfort, and the ability to stand up under hard conditions. They find that Chevrolet, fully equipped as sold, is the best value per dollar in the low-priced field, and neighbors tell them it costs less per mile to operate* i Prices F. O. B.

COMPLIMENT THAT RANG TRUE Little Indianapolis Newsboy Proved He Had His Share of the Wit of His Race. She is one of Indianapolis’ most agreeable and attractive young busi ness women, who has fallen into the habit of bringing all sorts of presents to a little Irish newsboy who sells pa pers not far from the News office. The other evening she brought him a pair of warm gloves, and he racked his little Irish brain for suitable thanks for her. And finally they came with a true Trish compliment. “Ladv” he said. “I’m glad the likes of you is an old maid. Ts you were married and your boys sold newspapers on this street, and bein’ anything like yourself, the rest of us kids would have to go out of business.” • The business woman says that was the best compliment she ever re ceived. —Indianapolis News.
