FOR CHILDREN

Nothing, that comes in a

children than SCOTS emulsion
of cod-liver oil.
And important" means that
it keeps them in even health.
Whenever they show the least
disturbance of even balance of
health, it promptly restores
them.
1t is to be used as food,

We have received from Census Di-
rector Merriam, bulletin number g.
which deals with the center of popula-
ton. The center Of population is the
center of gravity of the population of
the country, each individual being as
summed to have the same weight. By
tracing it's changes we get interesting
light on the movements of population
in the country as one section grows
more than another. The 1900 census
finds our population so distributed
throughout the states and territories,
exclusive of Alaska and our island ac-
QUESTIONS, that the center rests in
southern Indiana. about six miles
southeast of Columbus. the county seat
of Bartholomew county During the past
decade the center of population has
moved westward little over II miles.
and southwark a little less than ;
miles This is the smallest movement
that has ever been noted in a decade.
The slight southwark movement is due
largely to the great increase in popula-
ton of the Indian Territory. Okla
homa. and Texas. while the great de-
crease in the westward movement of
the center is, undoubtedly. due to the
large increase in the population of the
North Atlantic states. 1t also shows
that the population of the western
states has not increased as rapidly as
in former decades.
When the first census was taken in
1920 the center of population was
bound to be about % miles east of
Baltimore Since then the movement
at each succeeding census has been
westward. with occasionally little
variation to the north or south. through
northern Virginia. West Virginia.
southern Ohio. and in 1890 into southern
Indiana. The closeness with which the
center of population. through its rapid
westward movement. has chung to the
parallel of 50 degrees of latitude can
not fail to be noticed. The most north
cIn DOlnl reached WAS dt the StdIt
1920; the most southern point was in
1890, the preceding decade having wit
messed rapid development of popula-
ton in the sOuthwest-Alaba ma, Arkan-
sas. Mississippi. and Louisiana hav-
ing been admitted as states. and
Florida annexed and organized as a
territory. The extreme variation in
latitude has been less than 10 minutes,
while the hundred and ten years of
record have accomplished a movement
in longitude of little over 9.5 degrees.
Assuming the westward movement to
have been uniformly along the parallel
OF 20 degrees of latitude, the westward
movement of the several decades has
1S0c-lSlo. &c miles: 1S1O-1S2O. 50 miles:

This is total westward movement, of
$40 miles since 1890. The sudden ar
ceieHation of movement between 1850
and 1860 was due to the transfer of a
considerable body of population from
the Atlantic to the Pacific coast. The

Is Signaling 10 Mars Impossible?

Just now the matter Of communicate
ing with Mars is receiving considerable
attention from scientific men. and the
subject is one which has certain fas-
cination for all intelligent persons.
Much has been learned about Mars IN
recent years, its surface. climate. etc.
ard the possibility of communicating
with the supposed inhabitants OF our
sister planet, millions of miles away.
is an alluring theme. AS usual. the
wise men fail to agree. In the current
number of THE Living Age Sir
Robert Ball, an authority on astro-
nomical topics. has an interesting ana
illuminating article in which he holds
that it is an utter impossibility for
human signals to be exchanged be
tween our planet and Mars. He first
proceeds to explode the idea that any
system Of wig wag signaling could be
employed. "A flag the size of Ireland
would be quite too small under exist
the flag were as large as the United
Kingdom it would not be sufficient
The suggestion to wave Il flag of these
dimensions is the limit of the reductio
ad absurdum.
But how about wireless telegraphy
or the mysterious electric power at
Mr.. Tesla's command? Wouldn't one
of these marvellous agencies serve to
make the signal? Sir Robert shows
that at its closest approach Mars must
still be some $4,000 miles from the
earth. or distance 1000 times as great
as the diameter of the earth. As
Stunning that the intensity OF the effect
decreases like the law of gravitation.
with the inverse square of the ratio.
the effect of a wireless tclegraphy
signal transmitted across distance
of 5000 milcs-the diameter of the
earth-would be further reduced to
mere sixteen millionth part-4000X
,oOO-if il had to travel to Mars. To
quote the astronomer: In other words,
even if wireless biography attained
the utmost perfection that l suppose
even it's most sanguine advocates
could possibly dream of. yet the
efficiency of the apparatus would have
to be increased a thousand fold. and
then a thousand fold again, and finally
multiplied by another sixteen before
an apprcciable signal could be trans
mitted to Mars The same severe but
unavoidable tests are to be applied,
SAYS Sir Robert, to Mr.. Tesla's in
.vestigations. Thus the impartial
reader is compelled to subscribe to
the Englishmans conclusion. to wit:
The subject of alleged communication
with Mars. therefore. seems to me to
bc undeserving of serious attention.

Apropos of the Moose river murder
case in which a strong chain Of cir
cumStantial evidence led to the arrest
Of Alexander Terrio. who is now await
ing trial. Frank Hill of Corinth recalls
an interesting case which made him a
bit skeptical regarding such evidence.
1t was n Corinth case of many years
ago. Thieves broke into a house and
assaulted the aged couple who resided
there. beating them with clubs. The
investigation showed that the clubs
used had been cut in a grove nearby
the house and a sharp-eycd officer dis
covered that the knife used in cutting
the sticks was nicked in two places
AS two ridges in the cut showed this.
Then it was found that a young man
had been seen coming away from the
grove early in the morning and when
questioned he said the he had been
looking for a knife which he had lost
there the night before at n merry max
ing at the grove. The young mans
knife was found to have two hicks in
the blade and to add to the evidence
against him an old woman came for
ward with the statement that she had
recently heard the young man say that
he knew where he could get a lot of
money in a short time and it would he
an easy job or something Of that sort.
And that young man would surely
have been ralrOaded to ThOmaSton on
circ''mstantial evidence if the real
criminals had not been discovered by
reason of information lodged against
them by one who was in their CONT
