VARIOUS KINDS OF DAYS.
Word Said to Have No Real Meaning
Without DEFINING Adjective.


Without Defining Adjective.
Five kinds of day are recognized
and it has been said that the word
day" has no real meaning without an
adjective defining what kind OF day
is meant. There is a civil day, the
astronomical day, the apparent solar
day, the mean solar day, and the sid
ereal day. The civil day begins at the
midnight preceding mean noon, and
consists of twenty four hours counted
after twelve o'clock; the astronomical
day begins twelve hours after the civil
day, or at the mean noon of the cor
respon ding civil day. These hours
are reckoned from 0 to "a. 1t will be
seen. therefore, that while 1Onr
12min., January 1st astronomical time.
is also 10hr. 12min. January 1st civil
time. yet 22hr. 12min., January 1st as.
Economical time. is also 10hr. 12min
a. M, January End civil time. There
are many anomalies growing out of
this use of the civil day. and there are
many arguments in favor of using the
astronomical day. 1t is one of the
reforms which undoubtedly will cone
some time.

necessary to consider the subject of
food. and one of the most important
items Of food in hot weather is water

The Reason Why.

Drummond. Wis, Sept. 10 (SpeciaD
Whole families in Bayfield, County
are singing the praises of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and the reason why is given
in experiences such as that of Mr..
7. 7. Void. wellknown citizen here.
Il had such pains in my back that
] did not know what to do" says Mr..
Void, ''and as l came across an adver-
tisement of Dodd's Kidney Pills sent
for a box. That one box relieved me
OF all my pains. My wife also used
them and found them Just what she
needed. recommend Dodd's Kidney
Pills as a sure cure for Backache and
other Kidney Troubles"
Backache is one of the earliest
symptoms of Kidney Disease. Dodd's
Kidney Pills cure it promptly and per-
manently and prevent it developing
into Rheumatism. Dropsy, Diabetes or
Bright's Disease.

taken prisoner by the Romans about
a century and half before the Chris

died in custody. He discovered that a
certain plant was very good tonic,

called Gentiani, after him. This plant
