CONTROL OF AERIAL CARS WILLIAM 8. ROMME OF NEW YORK AN INVENTOR, PRODUCES MOOEL THAT EXCITES INTEREST OF NEWEST TRUST.

Stamford. Corsv, Aug. 4. That the Rockefeller interests are after control of the air seems a fair conclusion from facts made public here In connectlon with a monoplane in course of construction under direction of William S. Rom me, a New York Inventor. A corporation has been formed by Mr. Romme to exploit the machine, and behind the corporation are the millions ' of Harold P. McCormlck of Chicago, son-in-law of John D. Rockefeller and an officer of the International Harvester company. John D. Rockefeller, Jr.. is said to be an officer of the corporation, too, but thii could not be ascertained definitely. Chicagoan la Treasurer. It Is known that the corporation was organised under the laws of Illinois, that Mr. Romme is president; Mr. McCormlck vice president and John A Chapman, a Chicago man interested In McCormlck enterprises, treasurer. It is understood that young Rockefeller Is secretary. It Is a close corporation. Mr.' McCormlck Is now In Europe. Me Is expected here In September to witness the test flights Romme. the Inventor, is a New Yorker. He Is about 40 years old, and his sole occupation has been invention. He Is a member of the Aeronautical society and of the Aero club. At a recent contest under the auspices of the Aeronautical society he won first prize with a model monoplane for length of flight, stability and originality. It is this model that he has developed. Several months ago Mr. Romme submitted the model to Mr. McCormlck an enthusiast over aeronautic). Mr. McCormlck was Interested. After the plans were studied and passed on by Mr. McCormlck'a engineers ' and pronounced practical he agreed to back , Romme In . exploiting the nuvchlne. Then the corporation was organised which may eventually control air navigation. Mr. McCormlck has ordered one of the amchlnea and the Inventor claims he has orders for two more. : Seereta Closely Guarded. Mr. Romme's airship Is of the monoplane type. He Is assembling it here In a tent which II closely guarded day and night until certain paten s are secured. He will not be ready for a flight until about the middle of September. Then he will try the airship the Merry Widow, as It has been dubbed over Long 'Island sound. It will be equipped with pontoons. He will take the machine to Mlneola laUr for a more thorough testing. He expects to try for the New York-SL Louis and the Chicago-New York prises In the machine. The ' machine, Mr. Romme claims, cannot be capsised. He also has a system of control that will not Infringe, he says, on the Wright brothers patent Kept Him Waiting. The Scotch clergyman wbo Invented the percussion lock for firearms In 1800 had to wait twenry-seveu years before It was tested by the British government, thirty-two years before a regiment wan armed with It and thlrfour years before It was used In war.

A OatlolryJinijj Food Appetite is Nature's signal for fuel and repairs. Healthy appetite calls for the simple food elements that supply the natural requirements. Healthy appetite is satisfied when the proper kind and amount of food is taken into the body at stated intervals. Out the wiles of the modern chef and caterer have created In most of us a false and often unnatural appetite which leads into all the different degrees of indigestion, dyspepsia, etc. food insanity.

irsjp

Is a satisfying food it is composed of the natural elements to satisfy the natural appetite and restore order in the digestive machinery which may have been thrown out of gear by improper though often "fashionable" foods. ' The crisp, firm, "nutty" granules of Grape-Nuts make hensst mastication necessary. Its wholesome flavour makes it eppetizing, and the albumens, carbohydrates and Potassium Phosphate from the whole wheat and barley, makes it a satisfying food both to the sense of taste and to the hedy needs.

Last year the production of wine la the world was half a billion gallons less than in 1908. The chief reductions were scored In Austria. Bulcarj la, Hungary, Italy, Portugal and Spain.

Hugo Lillenthal, the landscape gardener, of Berkeley, has started horticulturists by announcing that he Is planning to graft two thousand varieties of roses on one bush and that he expects the bush to show the bloom of almost every variety of rose known In the United States. Lillenthal says that he has one hundred varieties of roses already blooming on the bush. San Francisco CalL It's Finer and Better .

There Is mors than one reason tot letting the children blow soap bubbles. It's good, harmless fun, for, on thing, and keeps thent oat of worse mischief. It can result in nothing worse than a little soap In the eyes and a little soapsuds on the clothes, boh of which are comparatively harmless. But It is more than good fun. It hi beneficial to the lungs. There are doctors wbo recommend It as sn excellent way of exercising the lungs, and beace . greatly strengthening to them.

Deep breathing exercises are freely recommended, but who could think of anything stupider than polling In and puffing out, great gulps of fresh sir. How much more fun to see who earn blow the biggest bubble! - ; , Bubble blowing Is better for children ' than some of the lung, developers that, are sold. The soapsuds will rarely hold ,,. long enough to do harm to the lungs by overextending them or by too, long . effort. To blow very big bubbles try putting a piece of rubber tubing about seven inches long on the narrow end of a funnel. Invert the mouth of the funnel in the soapsuds as you would the bowl of a pipe, then blow ss hard as you can through the tube and note -how you expand your lungs ss well as make wonderful soap bubbles. - V - The FaahienaMs Methen . The mother who gives over her cfcCS entirely to the csre of sn attendant after: school, hours is typical of the times, for this the up to date parent manages somehow, even on limited -means. What Is the result? Lax table : manners, a curt "yea" or W .when answering elders, and with relations no manners at all; .taking what is wanted without permission from any room, and raging at correction from any source. . Of course the mother resents any criticism of her method and will endeavor to explain away the tan- - trams as' nervousness. , ' '' 8he wants her child when grown up at least to have the manners, of her class, but she does not seem to rsafise that these will probably not be, acquired from hired attendants, nor wSl ' years of struggling entirely obUtsrsts the effect of early Influence.
