The “air mile” is a unit of measure ment that has come into use with the advancement of aviaticn. We had the land mile and the sea mile, which is approximately one-seventh longer than the land mile of America. The nauti- cal mile is often incorrectly called a knot, but a knot is a measure of both distance and time. It is correct to say that a vessel makes tien knots, but to say that she makes ten knots an hour is tautology. The air mile is measured differently from the land mile and the sea mile It is a land mile minus the retardation of an adverse wind or plus the acceleration of a favoring wind. Thus an aviator could cover many air miles while hovering over a given point on the earth’s surface.—Brown- ing’s Magazine. x Cause and Effect. “You've been making speeches alf through the corn belt,” said political manager; “do you notice any result?” “Yes,” answered the spellbinder; “my voice has become quite husky,” WANTS and FOR SALE Five Cents Per Line HOR SALE—A team of good ail |@round work horses, weight about 1300 Ibs. each also wagon and sleigh.
