the fuel supply by a process which

it will also withstand combustion un

Looking Ahead.
Here is “a new Northcliffe story
from “The Mirrors of Downing
Street."’ The eminent editor had a
caller who raised Ids hat and made a
profound bow to the elevator boy as
the two men, Northcliffe and his
friend, went up to the editor's rooms.
Wh<*n they came down the friend
again raised his hat and bowed low to
the boy. Northcliffe remonstrate*) with
him.
"You shouldn't joke with these
boys,” he said. “It makes discipline
difficult.”
"Joke!” exclaimed the caller. “(Jood
heavens. I wasn't joking. How do 1
know tliut tomorrow that boy will not
be the editor of the !'ally Mail?”
As It Was Pronounced.
"You have made a big mistake,”
said tbe boss. “I never saw that word
in m.v life. It may mean ’ossified,’
but even that word doesn't apply.”
“Hut tjiat is wtiat you dictated,"
replied the stenographer, spelling and
pronouncing from her notes.
"Ah. yes,” returned the roan. “I un
derstand now. I said ’bona fide.’ but
I didn't exiiect you to spell It ‘boni
fied.’ ”—Houston Post.
