TIE white color of arctic mammals
and birds has hitherto been ascribed to
protective resemblance, the adaptation
to snow.covered country being attrib-
uted to the preservation of individuals,
which, by assimilat,ng to their sur
roundings in color, either escaped
detection bv their foes or were enabled
to secure Their prey more advantageous
". A writer in Nature, however, SCOTS
at this explanation, and points out that
white, the worst absorber, is also the
worst radiator of all forms of radiant
energy. so that warm-biooded creatures
thus clad are better able to withstand
the severity of al arctic climate.

Attention. Doctors.

Everybody knows that the life Of the
average physician is hard one. He is
often compelled to ride great distances
through mud and rain for merely nom-
inal fee. It is not fit nor proper for US to
condemn any physician for his work, but
we do assert that his practice can be made
easier, and he can effect more cures BY
the proper and iudicious use Of PERUNA

usefulness will be greatly increased. Full
