Suns Heat Purely Electrical.

Prof. M. A. G.. Himalaya, a Portu.
guese priest, who invented the pyrhe-
liophore, or sun motor, has issued a
bulletin giving results of his expert
ments with the machine at the worlds
iair. Most important of these is the
discovery the inventor says he has
made that the heat of the u is pure
ly electrical. The bulletin reads in
part:
Professor Himalaya finds that the
heat of the sun is not produced by
Impact of the aerolites on the solar
mass, or by contraction of the social.
ed solar nebulae, or by oxidation, or
chemical reaction or by ratio-activity.
He has discovered that solar radiation
is the result of unceasing and power

atmosphere, which is the hottest zone
Of that heavenly body. Consequent
Iy the sun and stars are heated from
the outside, and they are neither more
nor less than immense i-ncan-escent

voted to lighting Infinite space. Pro

he has settled scientifically the pos
sibility of utilizing in future this and

Science of onychomancy.

The latest science is, undoubtedly,
pnychomancy, or the science Of read
ing the fortune from the finger nails,
According to the onychomancist, the
tiny white specks which come and go
on the nails are not the result OF
chance. but from them can be read
the past, present and future" These
innocent looking specks are almost as
difficult to decipher rs the lines on
the palm from which the palmist tells
us so much. Their size, shape ard
position are. all taken into account.
The specks nearest the tip of the IN
ger relate to the past, those in the
center to the present and those on the
half moon to the future. AS in palm
lstry, the right hand has to be read
In conjunction with the left. But a
feature which gives. this science an
advantage over all it's rivals is that
these Hateful specks are constantly
coming and going. Consequently a
number of readings at different times
must be given to reach an accurate
pne. The revival of the science, for
1t is really not a recent one, is traced
10 a foreign source. The consort of
p Continental sovereign came across
an onychomancist at a well known
watering place and was so delighted
at his aptitude in expounding the ur-
known that she insisted that he in
itiate a member of her suite in all its
mysteries. He did so, for a large con
liberation, and the pastime has been
continued at the Continental court.

MIGHT havE SAVED II.
a Lot OF Troaa!s Fr,n r,o Much stares
Food.

A little boy of eight years whose
parents did not feed him on the right
kind of food, was always nervous and
suffered from a weak condition of the
stomach ana bowels. Finally he was
taken down with appendicitis and after
the operation the doctor, knowing that
his intestinal digestion was very weak,
put him on Grape-Nuts twice a day.
He rapidly recovered and about two
months thereafter, his Father states,
HE has grown to be strong, muscular,
and sleeps soundly, weighs G2 pounds,
and his whole system is in a fine con-
dition Of health" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
1t is plain that if he had been put OH
Grape-Nuts at an earlier period in his
life, and kept from the use of foods
that ne could o digest. he never
would have had appendicitis. That
disease is caused by undigested food
decaying in the stomach and bowels,
causing irritation and making for the
growth Of all kinds of microbes, setting
up a diseased condition which is the
active cause Of appendicitis, and this
is more marked with people who do not
properly digest white bread.
Grape-Nuts is made Of the selected
parts of wheat and barley End by the
peculiar processes OF the cooking at the
factory, all Of the starch is turned into
sugar ready for immediate digestion
