Of the 22,000.000.000 telophone calls that passed through tho central offices cf tho world during 1911 no less Uinn 14,600,000,000. or CO per cent., were from Americans. In other words. Uncle Sam took down the receiver Junt about ttvlen as ofton as all tho rest of tho world combined. With this fact In mind, It In not at all sur prising to learn that of tho 12.453,000 telephones In tho woild the United tatos has no fewer than 8,302,000, or lhat tho American telophono Invest ment Is $1,025,000,000, compared with R worldM total of $1,729,000,000 Most pf these things should occasion no as. tonlshment. Tho telephono Is an American Invention, Its utility was flrst appreciated by Americans, and Americana have been most persistent in employing It and making It an Im Jxirtant factor In their everyday lives Everybody knows this, says tho Cin cinnati Times-Star. But ono thing not so generally known 1b that the wldo uso of tho telephono In this coun try has been accompanied by corre sponding neglect of that other and earlier American Invention for elim inating distance tho telegraph. When tho figures concerning tho world's em ployment of the telegraph aro given It Is a different story. Only 17 Dor cent, of tho 570,000,000 telegrams sent In the world In 1910 woro forwarded In this country. AFETT FORs? Thprn In a wl(lPBprrBd iira of tho va por, or Turkish bath. Even In arctlo Lapland tho uso of a Turkish bath of very primitive form Is common. It consists of a hut attached to every farm, says Harper's Wcokly. in tho unlddlo of tho hut is raised a kind of ibeehlve of tho rough stones and In this a nro Is lighted. When tho stones become red hot thoy aro drench cd with water, so that tho placo Is filled with vapor. Then enter tho bathers, who are armed with birch twigs, with which they belabor ono another until alt aro In a state of pro fuse perspiration. Then all leave tho hut and roll In tho snow outsldo. This last function, it will be observed. Is equivalent to tho cold plunge which Is tho final oxperlenco In tho Turkish bath as known to us all. A society of Gotham bridoa have organized nn antlnagglng club, with rules denouncing tho now woman who knows nothing of housekeeping, and .proscribing that husbands shall havo their breakfasts at any old hour, eorved by neatly dressed wives, that husbands shall be kissed duly on their return, and havo an ovenlng off every week to spend how nnd whero thoy please. Tho praises of this club will .bo fervently sung throughout thu land and Its members will bo held up as exemplars for their box, but tho pess imistic will recall that thoso members will not stay brides.

Tho toll so far paid Is rapidly ncarlng a total of two hundred slnco tho death of Lieu tenant Sclfridgo, of tho United States army, In Septomber, 1908. Naturally, somo of thoso fatal ac cidents were to bo expected after flying becamo a money-making spectacle In somo directions. Tho professional aviator felt obliged to mako his illghta thrilling In tho oycB of tho spectator, and to that end ho has dono things of a venturosomo nature for which ho han paid dearly more than once. Wo aro not concerned with this phaso of tho art. Foolhardlncss Is no real part of tho effort to advance human flight, oven though attendant mishaps may teach useful lessons. What Is of serious concern is the loss of life of thope oar neetly devoted to tho furtherance of the science "xfmtvm v A I) ' t "" f i Mux ( & ,i i' iM.t zs &n ty-' r , ,h-s -mib aig V -N."i.J,7MM77" I I I DOttVY71'32pr) 7?r?2irtrir,vzr nm vrro-arrnr' and tho adaptation of tho flying ninchlno to tho needs of tho army and tho navy in tlmo of war. These offlcer students havo gone Into tho work with that aplrlt of professional devotion which Is of tho utmost vuluo to the promotion of helpful knowledge, nnd thoy havo generally avoided those halr-ralBlng performances which aro val uable only as an nBnot for tho Bhowman. These calm-minded dovotcca tho term en thusiasts might ha misleading hnvo oarnostly strlvon to mako tho most out of tho Instruments placcM In their hands, but In doing this thoy havo made more than ono fatal atumblo dosplto their caution. Tho uso of tho acroplano In re cont military manou'vers has exacted Its doleful price, and It Is tlmo that duo thought was glvun somo of these many accidents. Strango as It may soom, tho recont mishaps which havo been most suggestively Illuminating havo been thoao that were generally nof fatal In tholr conse quences, although somo havo exacted tho Uvos of tho participants. On March 13 at Johannlsthal, Just outsldo of Borlln, a flying machine driven by Schado and an acroplano handled by Hottlnger canio to gether while In tho air a short dlstnnco abovo tho ground. Tho machines woro Instantly smash ed and sent crashing to tho earth. Neither of the uvlatora was Injured, but a panmstisur was hurt. Unquestionably, this collision was brought about by tho mutual offoct of tho dlbturbed air between tho two nmchlnoo. Tho next mishap of a kindred character occurred at Doual, Franco, on Juno 13, but with dlaaatroua results. Captain Dubois and Ucutonant Molgnan, both of tho army, woro oporatlng aoroplanos during a donso fog, and drovo Into each other whllo going at high speed. Lloiitennnt Molgnan wns killed al most Instantly, and Captain Dubois died In llio hospital a fow hours lator. Tho machines wero splintered by tho collision. Horo wo havo a counterpart of conditions which havo bo ofton caused troublo upon tho water, but conditions which may bo oven more frequont aloft undor atmoBpherlo circumstances of common occur runeo. Of courso, tho gravity of a collision In thn nlr Is unfortunately Increased by tho neces sarily high spoed at which tho flying machine must advanco in order to sustain Itself In flight. On Juno I!0, at Alx-loa-Hainus, Mllo. Helone Dutrlou, whllo aloft, foil upon two nBcendlng monoplanos, and all throo machines dropped to tho ground In a hoap. Tho two nother aviators woro pretty sorlously bruised, but Mllo. Dutrlou was uninjured, fortunately falling upon tho un derlying machines and thus having tho forco of hor drop greatly lessoned. Undoubtedly, Mllo. Dutrlou hit a "hole In the air," and hor mono piano Btartod carthwnrd before sho could check or control Its descent by a gliding volplane. Tho question Is, What caused that holo In tho nlr? Did tho movemont of tho two ascending aero planes create tho disturbance which narrowly escaped caUBlng a sorlous catastropho? This has been answorod by subsequent accldonts. Two French army olllcers, Lieutenants Ilrlez and Ilurloz, on July 0 started for Holfort, on tho eastern frontier, leaving tho aeronautic station nt Villa Coublay, Just outsldo of Paris. Lieuten ant Drloz had tho start of IiIb aasoclatf, and was g&sgsggg already about six hundred feet up, when Lieu tenant Burloz overtook him, passing at greater speed something llko a hundred feet above. Lieutenant Durlez'ti machlno created, so It Is said, a downward moving "holo In tho air," and this struck Lieutenant Urlez's monoplane In such a mnnner as to destroy Its equilibrium. Lieutenant Ilrlez and his machlno wero dashed to tho earth, tho aviator having both legs brokon and being othcrwlso seriously but not fatally Injured. In this cuso tho Innocent cause of tho accident was tho movement of tho aeroplane passing abovo at a height of a hundred feet, whllo Mllo. Du trlou's drop was probably brought about by the maneuvering of tho two monoplanes benenth her. Theso accldonts havo brought us face to faco with new problems In tho art of mechanical flight thoy show us that wo have much to learn about tho air In which wo nro seeking to vlo with tho bird. Tho man in tho street has a mistaken notion of what thoso nlr holos really aro; he Imagines that thoy nro nroas of partial vacuum which fail to glvo tho flying machlno proper support. Tho hazard thoy present is reasonably pictured nil tho greater becauso there Is no visible sign of tholr presonco tho nlrcraft Just suddonly starts to drop and may fall several hundred feet boforo tho movement can bo corrected, If corrected at all. If successful, tho nicest judgment Is required on tho part of tho aviator lent he suddenly bring proBRiire to bear upon his planes in excess of tholr reserve of strength. Collapse of this sort has happened with dire results upon a number of occasions. But, notwithstanding these physical evidences of somothlng wrong, still, In tho strict er Rcnso of tho word, the term air hole Is a mis nomer, nnd a cavity as such doea not really exist. Did you over watch the surfaco ngltntlon of a boiling pot? Well, that Is substantially a dupli cation of Juet what is going on In tho air about us. Tho earth acts llko a great reflector of tho sun's hpat and starts tho nlr boiling below here where wo nro and sends It upward In great col umns of rising atmosphere like the movement of tho boiling water In tho pot. This Is whnt the moteorologlst calls "convectlonal disturbances" of tho atmosphere, and ho tells us that this stato of things would not nnnoy tho aviator If tho von turcaomo airman would only keep aloft at a height of from four to flvo mllc3 a matter of from 21,000 to 2(1,000 foot In round numbers! fleorges Legagnoux has recently reached tha amazing height of 18,760 feet. Wo nro all familiar with the old saying, "What goes up must como down." In tho agitated belt of air tho upward rising column of warm air is replaced by n doscondtug column of cooler air. The downward moving column Is what really con stitutes the so-called "holos" of tho aeronaut's parlance Tho layman scarcoly appreciates the conditions that nro bringing about this convec tion or boiling motion. Whon tho .nn strikes tho earth tho air la heated and rises; In tho shadow of a cloud tho air Is cooler and descending. This seo-aawlng Is of greater or lesser magnitude, de ponding upon tho dlrectnoss of tho sun's rnys and tho tomporaturo of tho air when shaded. Tho evenness of tho aviator's flight or tho uni formity of hla lino of advance whichever you choose to call It 1h controlled by tho constancy of tho pressure which tho nlr exerts on tho under or lifting side of tho planes ns his machlno Ib driven forward by Its motor. Tho net result Is a sustnlning or lifting moment, ns tho engineer expresses It. If tho approaching air, Instead of ItjfSSSSa&w ITU' A C A "- "y - - ; JOK effiu0s rW"Wuwi w Mr. 'William A.

Again, if tho aviator Is traveling against a stratum of wind of a definite speed and then purposely descends, reaching an nlr belt of lower speed or altered direction, these changes may re duce the forco of tho air striking the surfaces of his planes, and this drop in pressure may causo hlB machlno to fall speedily earthward. This 1b another proof, of course, of tho imaginary vacant places lnthe air. We must bear in mind that the problem of the flying machine la qulto distinct from that of tho balloon. The balloon floats becauso it .is either lighter than the air it displaces when It rises or remains at a fixed altitude because there is a perfect balanco between its weight and that of the air which It thrusts aside. It remains aloft whether drifting with the wind or being driven by a motor. The heavler-than-alr flying machine, on the other hand, Is sustained In flight only so long aB Its movement forward arouses sufficient opposition on tho part of the air to lift or to sustain It. When the propellers cease to revohw tho aeroplane starts earthward, and dis aster can bo avoided only by volplaning or per forming a sweeping spiral descent. A maneuver of this sort is nothing more nor less than a modified drop. Tho safety of the aeroplane, therefore, whon In midair, dependB upon tho nlco balancing of tho machine and the proper equaliz ing of pressure upon the planes. Eddies In tho air or any other disturbance which will bring tho aeroplane Into conflicting atmospheric belts or zcJhes will Imperil the stability of tho ma chine and the life of tho aviator unless he bo over watchful, and there aro some of thpoo con ditions agaliiBt which he cannot sufficiently guard. Tho flying machine. In going ahead. Jilts tho air a succession of rapid blows, nnd by this causes an area of compression which Is equal In tho forco of Its reaction to tho weight of the flying machlno. Tho fact of it Is, this compres sion actually affects a volume of air equal In weight to the air craft It sustains, and as a cubic foot of atmospheric nlr weighs only .08 of a pound at tho freezing point, a little figuring will show how wide is thu mea 'upon which the avia tor must draw for his support. What hnppena then when tho flying machine has moved onward and the atmosphere tries to resumo Its normal stato? Tho reaction Is like tho releaso of a spring, and tho air acquires a vibratory motion greatest In a vertical direction akin to tho prolonged bobblngs of a partly water-soaked log after being hit a blow. But this is not all. We are living at tho bottom of an ocean of nlr, and we aro living In that region of tho at mosphere whore it is densest. Tho natural ten dency for tho atmosphere la to fall when not made lighter by heat and caused to rise. An aeroplano shooting through this lower belt Is substantially knocking out tho foundations from beneath the ntmospherlc columns reaching many thousands of feet heavenward, and wo have In tho air a virtual duplication of our bobbing log many, many times repeated at every stage of tho onward movemont of Uae flying machlno and the successive reactions of the compressed nlr which has momentarily sustained that mechan ical flight. iBn't It clear, then, that nn nvlntor whon passing abovo or below another aviator 1b either stumbling Into nlr holes thus created or producing a similar condition to menaco his nearby fellow? Tho airman advancing at tho greater speed will produce tho wider area of dis turbance and, within any prescribed Hiull, the moro dangerous reaction. Tho flying machlno when aloft Is In a state of decidedly delicate equilibrium, otherwlBo tho mere flexing of wing tips would bo Incapable of correcting its horizontal position. Any chnngo of pressure at tho extremity of Its wlngB Is equiva lent to adding or reducing the weight nt tho one or tho other tip, and an upsetting movement Is started. It is qult probable that even though ono aeroplane may bo a full hundred foot nbovo ' or below another, still tho greuter Bpeod of tho ' overtaking machlno mny cause a sufficient down- ward movement on tho part of tho air to over weight suddenly ono wing of tho other machine. ThlB Ib certainly what happened In tho case of Lieutenant Brlez, Mllo. Dutrlou and a number of others. Tho task set the Investigators Is that of find ing how wldo Is the region of ngltatlon created by a flying machlno In flight, and, with this knowledge, to prescribe tho proper distances which aviators must observe when approaching ono nnother. Fortunately, .ho flying machlno Ib now studied In tho laboratory, and recent progress In experi mental aorodynamlcs Is doing much tovard clearing tho wny for safe advanco In tho near future, but tho public must bo patient and It must realize that flying Is full of hazards at best, and wo nro really scarcely much more than upon tho threshhold of this wondorful science. Although tho house horo shown Is not largo, being 28 foet wldo and 48 feet, 6 inches long, it gives tho ob server the Impression of largeness. It Is an excellent type of residence for a city in which tho lots averago 60 foot, a size that will admit of room for a lawn and plenty of spaco for light and air. A houso thus set out amid pleasant surroundings will havo all tho good points of Its do sign fully appreciated and displayed to tho bent advantage. The tendency In tho city la toward crowding, on account of the Increas ing value of land, of course. This Is ,' to bo regretted because when lots aro too narrow houses cannot bo shown to good advantage, no matter what the excellence and artistic qual ities of their design may be. Fifty foot lots are large enough to meet most builders' requirements, but in many cities, as In Chicago, foe Instance, tho rule la 35 feet. This disadvantage is often mado greater by the owner's Insistence on a very large house, or by an arrangement of the rooms that requires that tho building be wldo. Too often tho resldcnco la suited to tho builder's demands rather than to the lot and Its surroundings. Houses of this sort usually havo several dark rooms and often aro not well venti lated. In a' great many cases they are not much better than apartments Of course,, this difficulty might be nvolded by making one fairly large, lot of two small ones, but frequently tho builder does not feel that he can afford a second lot, and ho often fur ther objects to the keeping of a largo lawn. But to the normal man the lawn is tho chief joy of the home. The alternative Is usually to adapt tho house to tho lot, to sacrifice some desired feature of the interior ar rangements,'' or even a room or two, in order to attain tho really essen tial light and air. Now the houso here shown Is adapted to a lot of small size, and yet there will bo plenty of room for light and air.
