Wedding festivities of young Gumm and his bride of a few hours were halted by an insistent knock on the HOW DIVERS OF FUTURE MAY BE SUPPiskD “WITH AIR. —Hose for conducting air from the surface to the diver under the water has always been con- sidered Indispensable. An elab- orate system of pumps operat- ed either on land or in boats has been necessary to force fresh air continuously through a great length of hose to the man below the surface. Not long ago, however, It was announced that some inventive genius had conceived and, it Is said, put into successful operation a de- vice which it Is thought will do away with the old apparatus for diving once the new system Is perfected, By the new method the diver carries on his back two steel bottles containing highly com- pressed oxygen. Another cylin- der contains chemicals for ab- sorbing the carbonic acid ex- haled from the lungs. A system of piping carries all the Impure air breathed out to a chamber containing the absorbing chem- ieal. In this compartment the carbonic acid gas is “entirely eliminated, A small amount of oxygen, just enough to renew the air, is added to the changed and regenerated exhalations and tas GEORGE MEDVED second-class mail matter.

When it was answered Evelyn Couture, the sinister shadow of the Gumms’ court- ship, stood in the hall. She formerly had held a place in Gumm’s favor. Asks Girl to Depart. Mrs. Gumm, realizing that the girl was agitated over the news that young Gumm had married, asked why Miss Couture did not go away and leave them alone. “He’s mine, Péarl Thomas,” she re- plied to the bride who formerly was Pearl Thomas, manicurist and artist model. Mrs. Gumm attempted to per- suade the girl to go away and not make a scene on account of the mar- riage. “Oh, what’s the use,” she replied despondently. Then, according to Mrs. Gumm, the Couture girl asked that Mrs. Gumm step out into the hallway. “after a recent experience with her, I was afrald to do this. Then she said she wished to see Kenneth,” the bride said. “He came out of the bathroom and saw her. He sald: ‘Go home, we're married, Let us alone.” “She insisted that she wanted to see him for a moment and came into the room, carrying a flapper hat In her hand. Kenneth said: ‘I suppose you have a gun again, Well, if you have, you might as well shoot. I eat bullets.’ “Of course, he didn’t think she would shoot, but she walked up to him and pulled the gun from under her hat and fired. I had started down- stairs and turned at the shot. She had thrown her arms around him, but even though wounded, he flung her trom him toward a corner. Then I heard another shot, and, running back, thought she had shot him again. When I reached the door she was falling to the floor. She had killed herself. When I saw her there, all crumpled up and Kenneth wounded, I fainted. “She didn’t love Kenneth and he didn’t love her. about her affection. “I truly love my husband, although it has only been in the last few weeks that we have been together much after a long estrangement. During these weeks this girl continually fol- lowed us. Kenneth told me he was through with her. She might have been | 4 | rs, infatuated with what I would call flap- | pani per love, but there was nothing deep) Gp ocar “As late as two nights before the | wedding I wanted to terminate our | friendship and give Kenneth to her if he wanted to go to her, but be assured there was nothing to his friendship with her and that he mere ly had spent some time with the Cou- ture girl while we were estranged. Three weeks ago he told me he was ready to settle down and we started going together again. “Then Miss Couture Interfered. Re- cently she met us on the street and pulled a gun on us. Kenneth told ber to stop talking about him as he was through.” ventor contends that his device will do away with the accidents and loss of life which have oe- casionally occurred through de- fects in the diving hose or pumping apparatus, SHOWS IMPORTANCE OF WOOL How Much of It Each Person Uses Has Seen Proved to Run Into Miles. How much wool does the average person use? Every inch of cloth contains about twenty-five threads running down- wards and the same number running across it, so that a square yurd is made up of 1,800 threads, each a yard in length. To simplify calculations we may as- sume that every yard contains a mile of wool yarn, The average suit or costume needs four square yards of cloth, so that every. man or woman wears something like four miles of wool. Allowing two sets of clothes a year, we find that each of us uses four hundred miles of wool in fifty years! When we come to linen and cotton goods, with eighty or one hundred threads each way to the Inch, the total length of thread becomes appalling. A single handkerchief may contain 2,400 strands each fifteen inches long, so that 1,000 yards of cotton thread are required to make it, A shirt repre- sents about three miles of thread. In fifty years everyone of us uses any- thing from 500 to 1,000 miles of cot- ton! How Much for Libraries? A dollar per capita is the American Library association’s estimate of a rea- sonable annual minimum revenue for a modern public library, according to the Survey. This sum, in the average community, would cover the salaries of trained liisarians, a main llbrary with reading room and branch libraries and reading rooms within easy reach of all the people, assuming a registration of at least 80 per cent of the population as card holders and allowing for home use about five volumes each. In most large cities other endowed or private specialized libraries are available for students; where this is not the.case the budget allowance of the public li- brary for expensive books must be much higher than Is {ncluded in the estimate given. Nor does this include extension work for children, or for for- eign speaking, official business or other social groups within the population, How Day Came to Be Divided. The division of the day into hours appears to have originated with the Babylonian magician-priests thousands of years before the Christian era. They devised the zodiac or belt en- circling the heavens and divided ft in- to 12 parts corresponding to the 12 constellations, They divided the year {nto months, the day and the night {nto 12 hours each, the hour into 60 minutes and the minute Into 60 sec- onds. These priests were the world's greatest astronomers as well as astrol- and their calendar was un- until the time of Jultus All civilized nations use this system of dividing the day. changed How to Cement Celluloid, The collodion solution sold commer- clally under a well-known trade name will be foand effective as a celluloid cement, Another cement can be pre pared by mixing the following ingredi- ents: Camphor, one part; alcohol, four parts; dissolve and add an equal quantity, by welght, of shellac.—Popu- lar Sclence Monthly.
