Upon a tree in Portugal a traveler Tead this appeal: Ye who pass by and would raise your hand against me, harken ere ¥ou harm me. ’ 1 am the heat of your hearth on the cold winter nights. The friendly shade screening you from the summer sun. And my fruits are refreshing drafts, quenching your thirst as you journey on. ¥ T am the beam that holds your house, the board of your table, the bed you lie on, the timber that bullds your boat. T am the handle of your hoe, your door, the wood of your cradle and coffin. Ye who pass me by listen to myl prayer: Harm me not! \Bureau. Devises Safety Code for Pilot of Balloon Safety regulations for balloon- ists are the latest product of bu- reau of standards investigations. A section in the general American aeronautical code—for which it is possible congressional enactment may be obtalned—is devoted to laying down dont's for pilots. The first rule adopted forbids balloon riders from throwing over- board anything but sifted sand and water, which is carried ag ballast, and these matters must be poured out and not dumped out in pack- ages. Another forbids smioking anywhere about the craft. Balloon passengers are forbidden to sit on the des of carrying baskets or to d on ballast, and are re- quired to bend their knees when landing. They are llkewlse for- bidden to get out of the basket until the pilot tells them to do so, on_ the ground that they might lighten the balloon sufficiently to make it rise. PORTRAIT PAINTER DIES.
