PROPER STABLE VENTILATION Question Should Receive 8peelal Consideration in Panning of Modtrn BarnS?Sun Kills Germs. Good ventilation Is absolutely necessary in the stable. The question of ventilation should receive special consideration In the planning of modern barns. This waa not done in former years and It appears that It is often forgotten nowadays.

The superior officers hate taken up their quarters in the city hall. All lights are out. The mayor asks: "Why?" He is told: "Because ^he Germans hare air ships." r v . The mayor makes the sign of the cross. He has heard of the Zeppelin. "But we also have airships," the mayor says. The French captain nods: "One of them will go up this night It will fly over the hills to visit them over there." At night the officers are entertained by the town. All town folks of distinction are prqsent. The notary makes a passionate* speech about the brave army. The colonel thanks him in the name of his comrades. He speaks highly of the town and its hospitality. Two hours later, only the men on guard are still on their legs. But the mayor did not go to bed; also, the clergymen and notary are waiting. What for? For the Republlque. This is the famous aeroplane ol which the captain spoke. Night Dark and Windy. The sky Is dark and overcast with thick clouds. Only from time to time he dim light of the moon steale through these dense massee. But quickly it grows dark again. The wind whistles through the forest and through the vineyards into the town, banging shutters and doors. Where is the Republlque? The townsfolk have been "waiting now for an hour, with their eyes fixed on the dark sky?but nothing?nothing. Now they hear a peculiar noise resounding through' the darkness from above.

Nqwe pa per circulations In the pror lnce were In 1714 a mere bagatolla The first two country newspapers came from the Jacobite party, and both belonged to coffee houses. Norwich was first in the field with the Gazette and next came Exeter with Joe Bliss' Exeter Post Boy. Both these papers were given away to their coffee house customers, and advertisements were inserted for nothing. Oddly enough. It was increasing circulation that led to a price. In 1759, SO years after Its foundation, tho Norwich Qasette editor announced: "This is to inform my friends and customers that on Satur day next this pager will be sold for a penny, and be continued at that pri/e; but advertisements wjll still-be taken In gratis, as formerly. The reason ol my raising It to a penny Is because the number I print is too prodigious great to be given sway any longer, and 1 hope most of my customers will not think It dear of a penny, since they shall always have the best Intelligence besides other diversions."?London Chronicle. >iane is more easily namnea. roe oolerver looks into the darkness with iharp eyes; the apparatus moves forvard In roaring and rushing flight.

Now shots go whirring up toward the German biplane. Another bomb Is thrown to the ground, causing death and destruction. and leaving paralyzing horror. The German biplane, however, has disappeared In the aerial ocean. It is In full flight It tries to come up with the Republlque. It ascends In a wide curve. Suddenly there Is a burring noise before it It must be the frenchman. It seems that he got lost In the dark. A yell of triumph escapes the observer. The apparatus mounts quickly in a spiral curve.
