WHY?
, Do Flying-Fish Fly?
(Copyrlght1320. by the Wheeler Syn
dicate, Inc.)
Travelers who, for the first
time, invade the waters of the
tropics, are often amazed at what
appear to be flocks of tiny bircft
which rise from the water, skim
along its surface for several hun
dred :et and then disappear un
der ti e waves. Closer investiga
tion, however, discloses the fact
that these winged creatures are
not birds, but fish members of
the herring family and therefore
related to the shad, the sword
fish, the mullets, the trout and
the ccd.
Thi ability to rise from the
watei and travel rapidly through
jnie air is due to a pronounced de
velopment of the breaW-fiirs
which, in addition to giving the
'. impetus necessary to en
thc fish to leap Upwards,
ach s a sort of parachute which
stippt ts it in the air. When
alarmed by the approach of a
boat crof some larger fish which
is recognized as an enemy, the
"flying herrng" darts rapidly to
the stirfuce of the water and leaps
upward at an oblique ' angle,
pushin; the water aside with its
fins in .iiuch the sanje manner
that a man 'would push the
earth with his feet in jumping
upwvd. The instant 'they clear
the vater, their well-developed
fi;is jerve a purpose analogous to
the planes of an air-ship and
they skim along, close to, the
surface, sometimes traveling as
much as 500 feet before diving
again.

Irish Twins Read a Letter.
Larry and Eileen looked it over
carefully. "There it is, hiding in
the corner." said Larry. He point
ed to a "5" on the green paper. '
"Five pounds it is!" said Gran
nie Malone. "Sure, it's a fortune!
Oh, it's himself is the good son to
me! What does the letter say?'-
The Twins soread the sheet open
and studied it, while Grannie hov
ered over them, trembling with excitement.
"Sure, that s dear, isn t it? said
Eileen, pointing to the first word.
"Sure," said Larry, "letters always
begin like that." ,
"Dear G-r-a-n-n-i-e, spelled m-
leen. "What could thai be but
Grannie?"
"'Tis from mv erandson, young
Patrick, then," cried Grannie. "In
deed, he's but the age of yourselves!
How old are you all?"
"Were seven, saia tne iwins.
"Patrick mieht be eight," said his
grandmother, "but surely the clever
children like yourselves and the two
of you together should be able to
make it out. There's but one of
Patrick and there should be more
learning between the two of you
thin in one alone, even though the
is a- bit older! Try now."
Larrv and Eileen tried. This wk.i
the letter. It was written in a large
staggery hand: 1 f
"Will vou listen to that now!
cried Grannie Malone. "Is it tak-
ing me back to America he'd be!
'Tis a terrible journey, altogether,

and a strange country at the end of
it, for me to be laying my old .bones
inl But I'd be a proud womin to
see my own son in any country of
the world, and he an alderman!"
There was a letter from Michael
himself in the envelope also, but tnc
Twins could not read that, howevet
much they tried.
So Grannie was obliged to put the
two letters and the green paper un-i
der the clock over the fireplace, to.
wait until the priest should pass
that way.

TI,V vunrVinor for me and I'm

consideration for THEM?. What

me?
I pay them their wages and if they
rtnti'r IHv-ei the wav they're treated
they can get jobs somewhere else.
I can always get others to take their
places.
If I started in being decent they'd
get so they'd espect it of me all the
time, and I can't be bothered. I have
my own comfort to think about and
that's enough.
: Besides, I'm in business to make
money and not to make my help
happy. Being decent sometimes
costs money and if I can keep my
help afraid of me they're not so apt
to loaf and shirk.
It doesn't matter to me what they
think of me or say about me behind
my back so long as they get the
'work out. And if I can get the
work out of 'em without treating
'em like human beings, why should
I? I don't pet the machines in my
shop, do I?

The COLTON
Pipeless Furnace
5 i Is Ideal For New
or Old Houses
WARM AIR
1
You will want the Colton Pipeless Furnace in
your new house because it obviates the necessity
for special construction of any kind and does
"not require openings in walls or floors, cutting
the house to pieces before vit is completed. You
will demand it because it assures you 100 heat
from each ton of coal and every room, nook and
comer will be warm even in the coldest weather
next winter. .
The Colton Pipeless Heating System is the logi
' cal one for old homes. It modernizes them in a
day. Requiring no more space than a vegetable
cellar, it relieves the owner of useless expense
in alterations and the housewife of the tom-up
condition incident to the installation of the old
style heating plant.
The noticeable fact that furnace manufacturers
are either changing to the pipeless furnace or.
adding it to theirvline, illustrates the increasing
demand for this new and better system! Over
5,000 comfortable owners in Iowa, prove the
quality of the Colton the pioneer pipeless fur
nace in this territory.
Many special features contribute to Colton su
periority. The lower section of the fire pot is
slotted on the inside so that air is delivered to
the fuel around the edges as well as in the center
through the grates. Consequently, a hot fire is
maintained clear to the rim of the- fire pot no
ashes are allowed to accumulate at the edges
and insulate the bowl Jbetter heat is obtained
by using all instead of but part of the fire pot.
Extra heavy casings are used and full length
inner casings which reach clear to the register,
increasing the radiation surface and at the same
time aiding circulation.
The base is cast in one" piece the grate bars are
heavy triangular sections, geared in pairs. The
combustion chamber is corrugated to allow for
expansion and contraction. Radiation surfaces
are increased by straight-sided, fluted walls.
The Colton Pipeless is self-cleaning. i
Cheaper in first cost more efficient guaranteed
to save a third of the fuel required by stoves or pipe
furnaces, the Colton Pipeless Furnace is the modern
heating plant. Make sure of getting a Colton for
your home order now at present prices.
