DR.. Wells, London physician, In
1915 in his published essay on dew,
was the first to draw attention to the
curious artificial production of ice in
India. Shallow pits are dug, which
are partially filed with perfectly dry
straw. On the straw broad, fat pans
containing water are exposed to the
clear sky. "he water, being a power
full radiant, sends off it's heat abun-
dainty into space.
The heat thus lost cannot be re-
placed from the earth, for this source
is excluded by the straw. Before sun
rise cake Of Ice is formed in each
vessel. To produce this Ice in guam
tides clear nights are advantageous,
and particularly those on which prac-
tically no dew falls. Should the straw
get wet 1t becomes more matted and
compact and consequently a better
conductor Of heat, for the vapor then
acts as screen over the pans, checks
the cold and retards freezing.

which did not materialize, much to
their regret, on account of the ATTAIN

surmlses are offered for their non-ap-

seems to be that they could not Sc

Rameau and the DOG.

Many eccentricities are pardoned in
musical geniuses, especially by those
who do not suffer from them. Unfor-
tunately the object Of a musicians
wrath is quite apt to be unable to ap-
preciate why he has offended.
One can fancy the possessor of the
unframed voice who figures In the fol-
lowing story thinking hard things Of
the celebrated composer Rameau.
One day Rameau while calling ON
lady fixed stern glance on little dog
who sat in her lap and was barking
good naturally. Suddenly Rameau
seized the poor little fellow and threw
him out Of the window.
"What is the matter2' asked hts
hostess, much alarmed.
He barked falser' said Rameau In
.dignantly.

Indigestion Causes
Catnrrh Of tho
Stomach.

For many years II has been supposed that
catarrh Of the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth Is exactly the
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re-
peated attacks Of indigestion intlames the
mucous membranes lining tho stomach and
exposes the nerves Of the stomach, thus eaus-
Ing tho glands TO secrete mucln instead Of
tho juices Of natural digestion. This Il
called Catarrh of tho Stomach.

INSANE FOR SEVEN YEARS.
Wonderful Restoration of a Chicago
Man After Long Confinement
in California Asylum.

After being for seven years confined
in a ward for the most violent inmates
at the Southern California State Hos
pital for the Insane at San Bernardino,
Andrew H. Young has gone to his home
in Chicago, the subject of most wonder
full restoration.
Until a short time ago Mr.. Young's re-
covery was supposed to be beyond the
range of possibility. but suddenly his
mania subsided, his mind cleared, and
within week he was pronounced recov-
cred. The other morning, with Super
intendent Campbell. he walked into
court perfectly restored, and the guard
ianship which was placed upon him
seven years ago was dismissed.
His mind is a perfect blank covering
the years Of his insanity, and as he
swung aboard the train he bade adieu to
DR.. Campbell, saying he was going home
to catch up with the world.

SAYS BoRAx is HARMFUL.
Government Report Shows Boric Acid
Is Deleterious If Use Is Kept
Up Too Long.

The use OF borax and boric acid as
preservatives OF food intended for com
mon and continuous use is inadvisable.
according TO government report, based
on the results of last years tests on the
poison squad" The bureau of chem
lstry, which conducted the tests on ten
young men who volunteered for the
service, says that in doses no larger than
seven and half grains a day, these
chemicals are preiudicial to health when
consumed for time 1t is held foods
containing them should be marked
plainly.
NO visible effects, the report says, are
produced in persons of good health by
the occasional use of borax or boric acid
in small quantities, but the young, the
deDllitated and the sick, it adds, are nos
to be forgotten, and the safe rule is to
exclude these preservatives from foods
intended for general consumption.
! When mixed with the food they are abb
sorbed into the circulation. They tend
to create dislike for the food in which
they are found. If continued for a long
time in quantities not exceeding seven
and one-half grains per day they cause
occasional loss of appetite, i'll feeling,
fullness in the head and distress in the
stomach. If given in larger and increas-
ing doses these symptoms are developed
more rapidly and are accentuated by a
slight clouding of the mental faculties.
When increased TO 45 grains day the
doses cause nausea.
There is but little apparent disturb
ance in the process of digestion or as
similation.

RULING ON DOCTORS FEES.
Treatment, Not the PATIENTS Wealth.
- Should Determine Amount.
"a Says st. Louis Judge.

= According to adecision by Judge Ryan,
of St, Louis, the financial condition of a
patient should not be taken into consid-
GRAFTON by physicians in making charges
for professional services.
"The character of the service, the
seriousness of the complaint, the skill
and time required. the result reached, /"
Judge Ryan holds, "are elements to be
considered, but not the wealth or pov..
erty of the patient"
The decision was rendered in setting
aside the verdict of the jury in the suit
of DR.. M. P. Morrell against DR.. ]. J.
Lawrence, of New York. DIR. Morreil
went to New York and performed sur
gical operation on young Lawrence,
charging $4,000. The jury awarded him
$4,000, but Judge Ryan deemed this
amount excessive.
