Swift & Company, U. S. A. HOMES IN HEAVEN Said to Depend on Materials One Has Sent Before. Therefore, the Occupier of a Maholon en Earth Will Not Necessarily Be Sumptuously Lodged Hereafter -Story That Points Moral. There were stories told at the an nual meeting of the Travelers Aid meeting at the Princess theater the oth er day that were too good to be lost. One by President S. 1. Cox of the Silk Travelers' - association is - specially In teresting in these days when every one seems to be thinking more or less of the life hereafter. Some one had gone to the pastor of Mr. Cox's church to ask his idea of heaven and in answer he related a dream told him by an other member of the church, a man of prominence and high financial stand Ing. This gentleman in his dream had died, reached the gates of heaven, was admitted and courteously taken on a personally conducted tour through the pearly street of the country now to be his home. A number of houses were In process of construction, and a large one was pointed out as being the fu ture home of the man who on earth had been the new arrival's gardener. "For my gardener" exclaimed the gentleman in surprise. "Why, on earth lie lived in such a small house! He needn't have done so, of course, but he never had anything, he gave everything away. * Ile lived in the little lodge at the entrance to my grounds." The guide assented to the truth of this statement and the personally con ducted tour was continued until they came to another house in process of erection, so small that the new arrival asked curiously for whom it was in tended, and was amazed upon being told that that was to be his own home. "I am to live in that little place, when on earth I had such a great house " he exclaimed. "Yes," said the guide, "but you see here we have to use tho materials we have on hand, and when you were on earth you sent very little over." Another story was told by Miss Eleanor Perry. a young woman who is one of the Travelers' Aid workers at the railroad stations and goes to show that South Dakota has a good climate which tends to the longevity of its in habitants and enables them to retain qualities of alertness to an advanced age. Miss Perry was on duty at the sta tion one night when the matron brought to her a nice old lady of eighty who had come from South Dakota and wished to go to Brooklyn to see a daughter who wias seriously ill in a hospital. but she did not know the way. Miss Perry undertook to net as guide, found her companion very alert, much interested in the subway, which she saw for the first time in her life, and learned the short notice upon which she had undertaken her trip from the West.

Airman's Record Glide. What is believed to be a wvorld's rec ord for gliding with a dead motor was acconmplished at Ithaen. N. Y., in a Thomas-Morse two-seater biplane. says the Scientitle Amnericani. This machine flew to the head of Cayuga lake, a distance of 35 miles. and hav ing attained a height of 17,500 feet. the pilot glided to Ithaea, att which point he still had 5,000 alttude. If his glide had been continued it is esti mated that an additional 15 miles could have been covered, making a to tal of 50 miles without the use of his motor.
