Many a successful business man has said that the sav.ng f hid first dollar was the most Important single act of his lift:; tbat it marked the beginning of a habit and a course of conduct to which he attributed h a success - SoniBihing very analogous to this, it is believed, is going to be the effect ou theAmerican. Nation ot the" war Savings campaigu. Not only are miiiiona of individual citizuma going to begin to save, bat this habit of economy and saving is going to be a collective movement, a movement not ol individuals aloue but of the Na tion. Tne habit of saving tornud uo.w has a deeper incentive than ordinary. We are saving now not alone fer selfish reasons, we are saving now from patriotism, saving not alone for ourselves but for our country. The com bination of patriotism and thrift is," indeed, going to make the War Savings campaign an epoch la our tatioral life. It is not only going to be a thing of tie me'idous benefit to millions of citizens. It is going to be a thing of tremendous advantage to the Nation as a whole, and affect our whole national life. It marks the beginning of a new era in American life, an era of economy, good sense, and patriotism. Doliday Nuptials. Ira Covalt, son of Joseph fl.

QUEEN HAD STORMY CAREER Lllluokalanl, Last Native Ruler of Ha wall, Waa Dethroned Two Yeara After Succeeding to Power. Lydia Kamekeha, Queen Liliuo kalani, the last native ruler of Ha waii, was proclaimed queen in Janu ary, 1891, and two years later, on January 16, 1893, she waa de throned. She was born in 1838, and succeeded to the throne on the death of her brother, the wild and dissipat ed King Kalakaua. It soon became apparent that the feminine monarch of the 'Tearl of the Pacific" waa re actionary in ' her tendencies. Al though she had taken as her spouse an American, John O. Dominis, a native of Boston, she waa not friendly toward Americans, and not at all in sympathy with the progres sive reform party, which had been successful in the revolution of 1887. The queen's husband died a few months after she gained the throne, and soon after that the queen be came more than ever reactionary. It soon was apparent that she proposed to abolish the liberal constitution of 1887 and to restore the old des potic reeime of absolute monarchy. A committee of safety was formed, and the day after she had proclaimed a new constitution in the direction of absolute power she was dethroned and a republic formed. In January, 1895. a royalist rebellion fomented by the ez-quten was foiled, and she waa sentenced to modified imprison ment for five years, but, upon pen ning a renunciation of the throne, she was released.

Locating lost or hidden water pipes is the function of a newly pat ented device which promises to be a friend to the plumber and to the municipality which has to repair its water pipes. The new machine is expected to prove useful by cutting the amount of digging necessary to locating a leaky pipe down to a min imuma very useful quality where paving has to be torn up. Such a device is also badly needed wnere a leak must be found quickly to pre vent flooding. The detective is an electric one, consisting of two con necting wires and a microphone worn bv the man operating it. ine connections are fastened to the near est terminals of the pipe, and by istpninir in the microphone the op erator can tell when he is directly over the hidden section. COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED. Virginia, a debutante, came in from a month's visit to friends. Dropping into a chair, she sighed in satisfaction and involuntarily ex claimed, "Oh, I am so glad to be at home."

OXYGEN DRAWN BY ALUMINUM One Never Sees the Metal In Air Ex. cept Through Veil of Superficial Oxide, It la Said. Soma Humorlet . Riiiirti "Do tou ever read the hu morous features In the newspapers r rvnirna "Sometimes I slance over the weather indications and the list of marriages." Judge. Aluminum is in many ways a won derful substance, albeit in the natu ral world most of it is oxidized and turned to clay. Its avidity for oxy gen is one of its most salient charac teristics. It is said that one never sees the metal, directly, in air, but always and only through a veil of superficial oxide which forms on its free surface with marvelous rapidity. It is stated that if a fresh surface of aluminum be prepared by scrap ing with a knife the oxygen of the sir runs in as fast as the scale is peeled off and keeps close behind the knifeblade. If it were not for this superficial scale of oxide, which acts as a bar rier to further action, the metal would burn up, or deflagrate, in air. The large amount of heat developed by thermit, a mixture of powdered aluminum with oxygen-giving suu stances, bears witness to the activity of the oxidizing process when com pleted.

"All material activities and accu mulations of every sort arc subjects for the poet, and no materials or accumulations fulfill their highest ends until they have been trans formed into poetry.
