NEW YORK, Oct. 21.——'l‘hLere's no

Betting on horse races. as every
child should know, is a favorite in-

the bookmaker follows a daily route,
collecting and. when need be, paying.
A new stenographer came to work
in one office where three or four of

bets. She was reserved and efficient,
with quite the air of a “homo body."

indifference.

you'll notice. and is carrying only 98
pounds and hasn't won for three or
four races." the girl continued in the
style of a veteran. “I think they're
saving him back to win."
I And that day Bombay won.
Next time the bookmaker came
around, the girl gave him 520 while
the men for whom she was taking
dictation and answering telephones
put up their usual 2-spots. She won,
and a couple of days later she
wagered the entire pile on another
winner. This time the bookie had to
pay 8240.
She and her slster-in-law are part-

The mystery of the green line has
been solved, many scientists believe.
Dr. J. C.L McLennan. directs of the
physical laboratory at the diver-
sity offToronto ls beilev'ed to have
turned the trick.
The green line is a line which
always appears in the spectrum or
graph of the nertbern open sky ll
taken with the aid of a spectroscopc.
Scientists have never been able.
to account for it. though there was
the general opinion that it must be
the result of the action of electrical
rays from the sun upon the upper
portions of the stonesphere.
Professor Lam vegord. a Euro-
pean scientist. working at the low
temperature laboratory in LLeyden,
Holland. thought be bold solved the
problem about two years ago.

ment. A spectroscopic photograph
made of the bombardment showed
o'prominent green line.
But Mr. McLennan. about a year
later, using more refined apparatus
at the University of Toronto. showed
,that' the green line obtained by
Vegard was not the same line that
was found in aurora. but ‘ that it
occupied a slightly different place
in the spectrum.
D
Meanwhile. however, Professor
Kristian ,Blrkeland. Le. Norwegian
scientist. has demonstrated that the
aurora was undoubtedly a phonon»
