Heat i'm the Body.

An important source of heat i'm the
body is due to the friction of the blood
as 1t circulatcs in its vessels. All of
this resistance, which Is overcome by
the heart, II transformed directly into
heat. We may calculate the amount
approximately. IL we suppose that $50
ccs. OF blood are expelled from the left
ventriclc at each stroke, under pres
sure Of one third Of an atmosphere. this
would correspond to .6102 kilogramme-
metres mt each stroke. and mt ~ strokes
n minute. this would give 443124 kilo-
grammemetres per minute. III we sup
pose that the right heart does one-quar-
ter the work of the left, or about 10
kiiogramme-metres per minute, we
have for the total work per minute
54.312 kilogramme-metres. which cor
responds to 12S calories per minute.
This is perhaps rather high esti-
mate for ordinary conditions. but
where the heart IL forced to pump n
much larger quantity of blood In order
to maintain the normal temperature.
this estimate is probably much exceed
ed at times. Since this friction takes
place largely in the most CONSTRUCTED
portions OF the circulation. IL would be
natural to expect that the blood which
had been driven through the capillary
system OF gland would issue much
warmer than IL entered, and such we

Wealthy Young Chicago Widow Has
Gone to Alaska Gold Fields.
1t is not love of gold, but love Of
adventure, which impelled young Mrs
A. w. Little, of Chicago, to start for
Alaska. She was born and reared in
the cradle of luxury. Her slightest
wants have all been gratified since she
was child. In society she was ia
vorite. Her friends include some of
the richest and most influential persons

Argentina, but was exiled in 1892 for
too active participation in revolt Of
the radicals. He speaks eight Ian
guages. In 1891 he fought under Ad-
miral Montt in Chill; in 1892 he took
part in the Brazilian revolution, serv-
ing under Admiral De Mello, and later
engaged in an uprising In Argentina
under DR.. Alene. Since then he has
travelled in many lands, and, becoming
interested in Red Cross work in Spain,
was sent from that country as a dele
gate to the international congress of
the order.
At the time of the breaking out of the
Graeco-Turkish war Nelken was In this
city. The Greek cause appealed to
him, and he started for the front, with
shipload of patriots who were going
to fight for their fatherland. AS soon
as lines were cast Off Nelken donned
his Argentina uniform, pinned his Red
Cross badge to his breast and was
elected captain by the votes of admir-
ing Greeks. On the trip across he
drilled the Greeks in the manual of
arms. Before starting for the front he
wasinspecting the hospitals, and there
met the Princess Marie. Through her
he was accorded n special audience
with King George. Nelken says he
told the king he had Travelled from
America to aid the Greek, and was as
signed by the king to Prince Constan-
tines staff, with headquarters Mt liner
beg.
At Athens Captain Nelken was mar
ried to Marianthy Mourabas, young
Greek maiden, who was I'm the city as
a nurse. He met her on the steamer
Crete. Her father, her brothers and
her cousins were all in the army, and
the girl, who is only II years old, had
volunteered as nurse in the army hos
pitfalls mt Athens. His Red Cross badge
admitted him to the hospital at any
time, and he saw the young woman fre-
quently. When armlstice had been de-
clared and seeing no chance of ami
hilating the Turk. he laid siege to tho
Greek malden's heart and came Off VIC
torious. Mrs. Nelken is petite and pref
ty. She speaks only talf dozen words
OF English, but talks French fiuently,
and says she likes America.

Chinese Playing Cards,

A pack of Chinese playing cards Is q
genuine curiosity. They are generally
printed In black on thin cardboard,
the average width being about that of
the finger of the human being. In some
cases they are only n half inch broad and
about three and "A half inches in length.
The length, whatever the size, Is al
ways at least six times that of the
width.
Some of the packs have queer repre-
sensations Of our "kings" and queens
and "knaves" stamped upon them In
black; others are decorated with the
figures OF animals. birds and fishes.
Those used by mandarins and high Of
ficials bear only figures of neurological
creatures.

not wait for the cook to serve it. 1t has
contracted the unique habit Of diving
off the side of the vessel whenever it
wishes fish dinner, and seldom comes
to the surface without good-sized
fish in its mouth. 1t hunts Its water
game in much the same way that an
ordinary cat hunts mice. Crouching on
the deck, it peers over the side, ready
to spring when its prey swlms along,
and then dives with unerring accuracy.
This distinctively sailor cat is the pet
of the officers and crew, and is regard
ed as the ships mascot. Its fame has
spread throughout her Majesty's realm,
and crowds collect to watch its antics
wherever the ship goes into port.
