The rreadmln aud It's Early Uses Ia This
Country.

The TreadmllI aud It's Early Uses la his
country.
Somewhere about tho year 1922 the
treadmill was introduced into England.
II was recommended by ,he ''Society for
the Improvement OF Prison Discipline"
Ii was the invention OF Mr.. Cubitt Of
Ipswich, in England. aud probably at
that time or soon after, II was used in
this country. The last one known OF in
tho United Statos was in tho Massachu-
setts State Prison. at Charlcstown.
Cubitts arst discipline mill was erected
In the House Of Correction at Erixton,
Surrey, England, The power was used
in olden times for grinding corn and
wheat and latterly for running all kinds
OF machinery used in prisons On this
circular. endless flight Of steps the
prisoners gradually advanced from the
end at which they mounted toward the
opposite end OF the wheel. from whence
tho first man, taking his turn, descends
for rest. another prisoner Immediately
mounting as before. to ill up tho num-
ber required. without stopping the ma
chine.
At Brooklyn, Conn, Miss Prudence
Crandall was confined in jail, In 1929, for
teaching colored children to read and
write. Early in the present century
sailors were frequently whipped for
various oifenses. They were tied to
grating made for the purpose and lashed
according to the nature OF the offense
charged against the unfortunate Jack
tar. In the army the offender was tied
to the tripod. In 1924 John +. Trueman
and Almoram Holmes, licensed inn
holders in Boston, were fined So. 66 and
costs Of prosecution for entertaining
two Boston gentlemen on the Lords
Day. The inhabitants, not being tray-
elers. strangers or lodgers, it was
against the law TO entertain them in a
public house on Sunday.
Perhaps the strangest and most un-
natural arrests for debt ever made we're
during October, 1911, when tho bodies
OF several dead persons we're arrested
for debt. Captain chillingsworth Eos
ter, OF Dennis, Mass, died owing one
BENJAMIN Bangs $3.50. Foster was about
forty-one years OF age, and left wife
and i've children. His parents were a
very aged, poor couple, who could not
give Bangs security for the debt Bangs
declared he could arrest the body for
the debt, and while it was on the way
to the grave he had Sheriff Jonathan
Snow serve writ on the coffin In the
wagon and set it down on the highway,
midst the convulsive sobs OF his par
ents, family and assembled friends
Bangs left the body in the highway for
several days. until II was ordered away
by the foreman OF the grand jury, when
he took 1t to his house. There IL re-
mained several days Philadelphia

THE SUMS HEAT.

IL 10 Thought TO be Uniformly the Same
Year In and Year Out.
There seems TO be sufficient reason
for the belief that the heat at present
emitted from the sun is neither greater
nor less than that which our luminary
used to dispense ages ago. Where tho
vine and the olive now grow, the vine
and the olive were growing twenty CEN
turtles back We must not however,
place too strong reliance on the de-
duction from such fact Darwin has
taught us how by natural selection an
organism can preserve its adaptation
Notwithstanding the gradual change Of
the surrounding conditions. The facts,
however, fail TO show any grounds for
imagining that there have been changes
in the climates Of the earth within his
toric times
We have geological evidence as TO
the charact OF the climates which pre-
vailed at remote antiquity far earlier
than any historical testimony. The
records OF tho rocks show us unques-
tionably that o~. s'~~~ n'-s r''~ss
through many striking vicissitudes OF
heat and cold. Those records demon
strate that there have been periods
during which some OF the fairest regions
OF this globe we're desolated by frost
50 frighttul that they became thickly
cased with solid ice. There have also
been periods when conditions OF pre-
cisely opposite character have prevailed.
Those polar regions which are now the
perennial abode of impenetrable ice
have once enjoyed succession Of long
and delightful summers, divided by
winters remarkable alike for their brew
ity and their mildness Arctic solitude,
now so dismal and so barren, then nour-
ished plants and animals that can only
thrive under genial conditions OF eli
mate.
No doubt the question as TO the origin
OF those great climatic changes which
have so frequently occurred in the
course of geological time presents many
Opinion is divided as to
what the cause of these changes may
have been. Those who are competent
to offer an opinion on the subject OF the
cause of the geological variations OF
climate are in substantial accord that
the changes have not been due to any
actual variations in the supply of heat
emitted from the sun. In other words,
there is not the slightest reason to be-
lieve that the sun itself has been either
hotter or appreciably colder
during geological times than it is at tho
present moment Good Words.
