SHORT WINDED.
Why Some Persons Become Breath
less With Severe Exercise.

ASoS svAtA SCScEc GASTcAScs
Breathing consists of two rhythmical
alternating processes inbreathing in
which the muscles of the chest play
their part, and outbreathing, in which
the elasticity Of the lungs and the
weight of the chest force out air The
number of breaths, which varies with
the age, is one to every three or -four
pulse beats. In ordinary breathing on
ly about one-siXth of the air in the
lungs is renewed, but in exercise the
amount is considerably increased and
the number of breaths multiplied.
In disease such as reduction of lung
area the blood is in danger Of becom-
ing overcharged with carbonic acid,
and the lungs struggle to get rid of this
and to bring in more oxygen. Exercise
causes similar change, and if of the
right sort and not too long continued
the circulation and breathing are
qu1ckened, and the result is good.
In severe exercise, such as long con-
tinued speed trials, the Quickened
breathing can no longer cope with it's
task, so carbonic acid accumulates
faster than the heart and the lungs
can deal with it, and breathlessness re-
suits.

THE LUDDlTES.
Authors of the Famous Stocking
Frame Riots In England,


Frame Riots In England.
Early in 1911 bands of distressed
stocking knitters in Nottinghamshire
began long series of riots, marked by
most wanton mischief Assembling in
parties of from six to sixty under a
leader styled general or Ned Judd, dis
guised and armed with swords, pistols,
hammers and axes and bound together
by illegal oaths, they succeeded in
smashing stocking frames in all parts
of England, and their daring outrages
continued even when large military
force was brought into the neighbor-
hood and two London police magis-
trates came down to assist the civil
power.
TO such pitch had this dangerous
disturbance grown that royal procla-
nation was issued Offering a reward Of
ESQ for the apprehension of any of the
offenders. Not until October, 1916, did
this wholesale destruction and vio-
lence cease, by which time more than
a thousand frames and many lace ma
chimes had been broken up and the
mischief had spread into neighboring
counties.-London Chronicle.

WHY ICE STAYS ON TOP.
Water the Sole Exception to IN 9th
erwise Universal Law


1t is one Of the most extraordinary
things in this extraordinary world,
writes Henry Martyr Hart in the Out
look, that water should be the sole ex-
ception to the otherwise universal law
that all cooling bodies contract and
therefore increase in density.
Water contracts as it's temperature
falls and therefore becomes heavier
and sinks until it reaches 80 degrees.
At this temperature water is the heav-
lest. This is the point of its maximum
density. From this point it begins to
expand. Therefore in winter, although
the surface may be freezing at a tenn
perature of 80 degrees, the water at
the bottom of the pool is six or seven
degrees warmer.
Suppose that water, like everything
else, had gone on contracting as it
cooled until it reached the freezing
point. The heaviest water would have
sunk to the lowest place and there be-
come ice. Although it is true that
eight pints Of water become nine pints
of ice, and therefore icebergs float,
showing above the surface an eighth
Of their bulk, still had the water when
at the bottom turned into ice the
stones would have locked it in their
interstices and held it there, and before
the winter was over the whole pool
would become solid ice, and all the poor
fish would be entombed in clear, beau
tiful crystal.

HABERDASHER.
The Word Is Supposed to Mean
Things of Little Value.

4Ae worn Is supposed 10 mean
Things of Little Value.
The word haberdasher first appears
in the language as coming from haper-
tas, the name of fabric mentioned in
the Liber Albus along with wool, can
vas and felt, as subject to customs
duty, about 1419. A parallel and al
most contemporary list has haber-
tassherie.
The word is supposed to mean things
Of little value-small wares such as
buttons and tapes. Skeat derives it
from the Icelandic haperbask- trum-
perry, pedlars' wares. In a register of
burials OF Ware in 1866 we have one
entry: michael Watkins, London,
haberdasher of hatts," probably this
being the first material Of which hats
were made.
Chambers gives another meaning to
the word. He says it is derived from
the ancient name for a neck cloth,
berdash, which is derived from beard,
and tache, a covering.
Hapertas was originally a cloth of
particular kind, the width Of which
was settled by Magma Charta. Hence
haberdasher was the seller Of haper-
tasserie.-London Answers.

The Only Obligation.

A story that comes from a country
region not far from New York concerns
a native who was seen stolidly plow-
ing a field with team of weary and
detected horses. AS they approached
the observer of rural life remarked
sympathetically that the horses didn't
seem to like the work.
"Um," commented the farmer briefly,
they don't have to like it. They only
have to do it."-Harper's Weekly.

Five Thousand Distinct LanRuaxe

Mr.. ]. Collier, writing on the subject,
says that over 5000 distinct languages
are spoken by mankind. The number
Of separate dialects is enormous. There
are more than sixty vocabularies in
Brazil, and in Mexico the Nahua Ian
guage has broken up into 700 dialects.
There are hundreds in Borneo. In
Australia there is no classifying the
complexities, and generally the num-
Der Of dialects is in inverse proportion
to the intellectual culture of the pcpu-
lation. Assume that only fifty dialects
on an average belong to every lam
guage and we have the colossal total
of 100000 linguistic varieties.-Pear-

Hicks for September.

Rev. lrl R. Hicks, the weather prophet,
makes predictions for September.
First storm period from the 4th to 10th
and Is central on the 9th. 1t 10 plainly evi.
dent that this is period in which very gen.
eral and, perhaps violent disturbances are
reasonably to be expected. As early as the
9Th look for growing warmth and other de-
cided indications OF approaching storms.
About the 7th 10 the 10th wide-reaching aud
severe storms OF rain, thunder and wind will
sweep over most parts OF the country. Very
warm weather will precede and attend these
storms.
The second storm period, which 10 central
on the llth and 18th Is 80 directly connected
with the declining first period that we may
us well consider them as one. At the wind
ing up OF these disturbances, q rushing, high
barometer and cold, north westerly gales will
come out OF the northwest, attended with
frost in northerly sections.
Third storm period runs from the l6th 10
the 2lst, being central on the 18th. The re-
suit at this period will depend upon the
character Of the disturbances at previous
September periods. If this energy should find
vent in very heavy storms to this third storm
period, the chances are that disturbances will
be comparatively moderate at this time. But
II warm, placid weather, with only light
PoitutoetlOnb bnOulu leau up 70 tnib Tune,
the cumulative forces will reach q climax
between the 18th and 26th Of September, but
the storms, and other phenomena resulting
therefrom, are Just as liable 10 break forth
weeks before and after, as at the center of the
equinoctial period.
Fourth storm period, reactionary, is CEN
trail on the 23rd, Gath and 25th. In every
probability, some Of the most general and
violent disturbances OF the month will trans
pire within forty-eight hours Of noon on the
24tb. Heavy to violent storms are also liable
to visit the in terror generally at and about
this time, touches Of early snow, With high
barometer, cold winds and frosty nights.
Fifth storm periods, regular. This last
September period is central on the Goth,
reaching from the 9th into October. Under
theIinfuence Of this period September will
come to its close growing decidedly warmer
with areas Of cloudiness and rain gathering
and moving eastward. By the Both we'll de-
fined storms will be noted In the west, which
will advance eastward over the country dur

HARRISON rs. ROOSEVELT.

In Indiana the memory of a statesman
named Benjamin Harrison still obtains, and
the canny HOosiers recall an utterance that
came from his lips in discussing conditions
in the far East: 1--WE hold no commission
from God to police the entire world" 1t Is
altogether possible that some present day
statesman may consider this remark as a
confession OF the weakness and cowardict
which President Roosevelt Is 30 fond Of con
demning, and others may view 1t as only ar
interesting relic Of the Ignomlnious days be
fore our nation got out OF its swaddlnl
clothes and became world power. 1t doe
not harmonize very well with the up TO. dat
policy involved 10 the caution to neghbor
Ing republics that they must behave them
selves 10 order TO avoid interference and cas-
tlgation with the big stick.
Benjamin Harrison's Republication and
Americanlsm bore very fair reputation In
his day and generation, but the Rooseveltian
cohorts will certainly protest in most siren
uous style at the incursion into musty an.
tlquities that Hooser admirers Of the late
Mr.. Harrison are now making. In fact
they would be untrue to their leader II they
found wisdom In any of the utterances Of
former Presidents. Does not Mr.. Roosevelt
