Sadie alone was not engrossed in, work, but sat very still in her corner by the window, absorbed in a bright Gt colored circular. Other circulars like ! it were strewn over her lap and peeped from her handbag. “What's that you're reading?" asked Mary, looking up from her work. “It's a pamphlet on Bermuda,” said | Sadle. “Are they asked Anne. “Oh, no,” said Sadie. “There's one | on Newfoundland and one on Nova Scotla and ~ne on the Thousand Is lands and one on the Adirondacks and | another on a trip through the Canadian Rockies and a tour through Yellow stone Park and—" “My, what a lot of places to choose from,” sald Mabel. “I think it takes A great deal of energy to get a trip like one of those all planned out and know Just when your trains leave or your boat starts and get all your connec- tions worked out and know what clothes you are going to take.” Sadie began to trace with a hot little finger an intricate route on an orange map. It evidently led over hill and | dale and included a glimpse at most of the wonders of the earth. “Leaving New York at 4:33 on Fri- day, I would reach Hillsburg at 7:48 on Saturday morning; making a quick connection, I would get to Plainsville Junction at 1:18, and from there—" “Mercy, how complicated,” sald Mar bel. “Yes, that would be,” assented Sadie, “I think perhaps I would prefer the sea trip to Bermuda.

I al- ways plan it every year, and then I go spend two weeks with my grand- mother who lives on a farm in Millis, Mass. But at least I have the fun of making believe I'm going somewhere else.” With this vacation confession, the train stopped, and the girls rolled up their work and left the train. Sadie marched on ahead and, as the ferry- boat swung out of its dock, she looked longingly down the harbor and pre- tended she had decided on Nova Sco- tia. t t | 1 ¢ v Green Light to Test Sugar. Cube sugar and ivory plano keys are inspected under the ghastly greenish rays of mercury vapor lamps with greater speed and accur- acy than can be attained in ordinary daylight, says the Electrical World. Any impurity in sugar manifests it- self by changing the white to a shade of yellow. To detect impurities, plates of the crystallized sugar one inch thick are examined by a man looking through them toward a mer- cury vapor lamp of the kind which s a familiar adjunct of the galleries of postcard photographers. When thus viewed the yellow impurities stand out clearly in the bluish-green light. The color of ivory varies from the outside to the center of the tusk to such an extent that manufacturers sort the pleces Into 16 different shades. Formerly this sorting could be done only in bright daylight, but with the light of the mercury vapor lamp grading can be done witl.out limitation at any hour of the 24. g h Infallible.
