IN 1892, AND STILL KEEPING THEIR OATH EL PASO. Texas, April 12 "Sandy" MacAllister and "Mac" MacAllister are brothers. Back in 1892 they were employed In a mine at Bisbee. Thev haven't been employed since. "Sandy"
had a quarrel with the foreman end was discharged, "Mack" became an;rry and quit. They took an oath that day never to work aaln. They have kept It. Since then they have been across the United States 20 times and nie here on their twenty-first trip, headed for the coast. They always stop in El Paso when they travel the northern route, and they usually alternate between some northern and southern route. It is easier to "get ' by" on freights through the south than it i? through the north, they say. "Bulls" policemen and constables in the south are not so particular about catching "bo's" en trains, "Sandy" said. ,' Saved Some Money. The two brothers have saved som money and it is lasting well because they wear overalls, do their own washin? and mending,- carry their own cooking utensils and do their o-vn cooking. They prefer sleeping in the
open, winter and summer, they dare, "because we are used to it,"
was "Mack's" explanation. "Wc don't "mix with other hobo's" he continued, "they are only tramps." "When "Mack" and "Sandy" como 1o a thickly settled community, they usually walk through, presenting the appearance of cross country hikers. F. M. Robinson, a former railroad detective, knows the MacAllister brothers well. On a recent trip made by them, he invited them out to his home when they came through ElPaso ju.t to talk over old times with thsm. They are known in many towns by workmen in railroad yards, who some times remark when spring comes around: 'Well, it's about time 'Sandy' and 'Mack' were coming in.'

One great advantage claimed for Ihe new system over coal firing is the saving fn labor. Mrs. Shaw says it has been demonstrated that to oper ate a plant requiring a dozen men when coal Is burned, with her system installed, only four men would be needed. There is a big saving, too, in the cost of the two fuels, as the cheapest grades of oil can be burned, without having the oil put through any
i refining process at all.
By combining the water with oil, it Is claimed that tests have shown a 6aving of, roughly, 50 per cent over the ordinary burning of fuel oil. This

Around the bottom this contrivance is punched full of holes to admit air.

WASHINGTON, D. C, April 12. j For ten months past a small power plant within the enclosure of the" Washington Barracks in this city ha3 been operated by burning water in connection with oil. Water, looked upon as the other extreme from fire, and the great factor in putting out fires, is actually being turned under a boiler to produce heat. Scientists until very lately have declared this to be impossible. However, there is a patent record in the archives in this city showing that Mrs. Francis Dowdall Shaw secured a patent for a certain kind of burner in 1916, in which oil, of practically any kind is combined with common, ordinary water and an intensely hot flame produced at a low cost. Mrs. Shaw, who is personally in charge of the power plant at the Washington Barracks under contract with
the Government, has tried out her in
vention in many ways, and says that
her records show a saving of more
than 50 per cent over supplying power from burning coal, and a 50 per cent saving over using fuel oil in the usual way. To secure the heat desired at the Barracks plant about three parts of oil are used to one part of water. Ridiculous as it may sound, if more water were used, the flame would be so hot that the brick foundation under the boiler would melt down. Mr3. Shaw has "experimented with greater quantities of water, and found the heat so terrific that ordinary brickwork melts down quickly. Mrs. Shaw has been engaged in manufacturing bricks and tiles for some time. It was an accident in connection with her work that showed her
that water could be combined with oil as a fuel, effecting a considerable saving over the ordinary use of fuel or oil or coal. It happened in this way: Mrs. Shaw was drying out a kiln, and for this purpose was burning kerosene
under it. Some of the kerosene cans
had been standing for quite a while, and water had accumulated in them. By accident, the whole combination was used, and an immensely hotter flame was produced. "Scientists have declared until very lately," says Mrs. Shaw, "that it is of course impossible to burn water.
However, I had done it, and not being: a scientist, I kept on experimenting! until I found out what was happening. The oxygen and hydrogen gas in water was being burned, and after 1 had perfected a burner, I patented the thing." One of Mrs. Shaw's oil and water burners has been operating an 18,000 horse power plant in Texas for some time. This is the only big private plant using the invention thus far. Mrs. Shaw has used everything in the way of oil from kerosene to the very poorest grades of crude oil, full of dirt and foreign substances. She
has yet to record a failure. Naturally, j the Government is taking a keen inj terest in this development and is makj ing tests periodically to determine ex
actly how much of a saving over other fuels can be effected. These tests have not been completed and the figures therefore are not available. Mrs. Shaw says that in it3 present form the invention is practicable for plants, office buildings, locomotives, and ships. It has been successfully tried out on a ship, but until it is a bit more refined probably will not come into general use. Mrs. Shaw herself is authority for this statement, "i will install the thing and get steam up for them, but I want to leave the ship before it leaves the dock," she declares.
The best kind of oil for use In Mrs. Shaw's invention has proven to be good fuel oil the oil known as "Navy

If you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid anon; apply at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you- have. This simple remedy never fails. Advertisement.
