The first use of a commercial anuchine should be as a carrier of mail-mutter. A definite field of utility for reliable air- craft should lie in carrying urgently con- signed gouds at rates higher than those charged for land or sea transport. Here, again, the speed of the new method of conveyance must win its patronage

办

Then will come the era of passenger aircraft. Such machines, in their initial. application, may accommodate 20 or 25 people, and be capable of travelling several hundred miles without alighting, Passengers will be business mon, willing to pay high fares for the privilege of passing between the cities of Europe at speeds averaging 100 miles an hour. They will be seated in comfortable, totally en- efosed saloons; air travel, indeed, will have smooth, vibrationless luxury. unknown with present transit. Only the eubdued hum from the power plant in the fore-car and the hissing rush of air past the polished, hull will indicate the huge speeds attained. Often earth or sea, faintly visible through the windows of the saloon. will be obscured by a film of lowlying clouds, and all senso of motion lost. To seck favourable wind conditions, aircraft will fly at altitudes of 10,000ft., and higher, when upon long, high speed voyages.

LONDON TO PARIS.

The first passenger neroplanes will, naturally, be employed over routes upon which their advantages can be demon. strated most conclusively. It should be the aim, for instance, to establish early services between London and Paris, By railway and steamer this journey is one of approximately seven and three-quarter hours. It should be accomplished, by air- way, in two and a-half hours; and travel lers who patronise the new air-route will avoid delays in changing and the much- dreaded discomforts of the sea crossing.

As to the actual operation of the air- phecy. Below the London streets, in the ways, this much may be written in pro- era of practical fight, there will lo, probably, a central air-station. From it north, south, cast and west-will radinte monorail tube trains, conveying passen- gers and goods to the aerodromes on the outskirts of the city, from which the chief nircraft services will be, operated..

When the institution of a non-stop air service permits him to make the trip from London to Paris in a third of the time now required a business man will, before his journey, visit his office as usual to deal with the morning's correspon dence; then he will catch, say, the 11 ja-ri, ainonil, transact his business, and return by the 5 p.m. service, taking toa MERION, No. 10, PEAR, Furnished or 7.30 p.m., in reasonable time for dinner. white in flight, and reaching London at Unfurnished.

The Tonic Food

Thousands of famous men and women of various occupations in the strenuous life of the modern world-and 16,000 practising phy sicians have publicly testified, over their signatures, to the great value of Sanatogen- the scientific health food with true tonic properties.
