Outlook Dark,

The Associated Press in its story of the
peace negotiations at Portsmouth last
night said:
"The outlook is black-many believe
it was never SO black as tonight. The
japanese are not talking. The only pos
sible line of further japanese concession
is considered to lie in the direction of a
diminution of the amount of the pur-
chase money demanded for the north
half of Sekhalin
The decision rests, therefore. as it has
from the first, with Russia. Unless the
Emperor agrees to yield between now
and Saturday, the end is likely to come
on that day. And the indications from
Peterhof, instead of raising the chances
of change of heart on the part of the
Emperor, seem to indicate even firmer
determination to yield neither territory
nor indemnity, sugar-coated though the
| latter may be-"

HEcoRps OF THE PULSE RATE,

Instrument Shows Heart's Action Dur
Ing Muscular Work and After.
a recent publication Of the Univer-
stty OF Michigan describes an instru-
ment for securing a continuous gra-
phtc record Of the pulse rate in man
which afford valuable indications of
tho hearts work. The records showed
that the commencement Of muscular
work Is followed almost simultaneous
~ BY q marked ~acceleration Of the
pulse. In fact, this modification Of the
pulse rate is observed in the next
heart cycle after the work begins.
In typical cases there are three we'll
marked stages-a primary rise, a
period OF sustained acceleration and a
secondary rise. Similar stages Of de
crease in rate occur after the work
1&tops. The rapidity OF the pulse dur
Ing work depends not only upon the
amount OF work done, but much more
upon the manner in which it is done.
Speed and resistance are factors re
quirfng separate consideration and OF
these two speed has the greater in.

These records show that while mus

and that conversely cessation of mus
cular exertion is an immediate relief

LIGHTING LORE
AcETYLENE ExcELs AS AN MLU.
MlNANT.

Gas For Lighting Formerly Confined to
Cities and Large Towns. Now In Gem
eEal Use in the Country.
The satisfactory lighting OF suburban
and country homes requires that the
means used shall be convenient, safe,
economical and furnish a brilliant, pen
e%trating, efulgent light.
Everybody admits that these are not
the characteristics Of the candle or
Kerosene lamp, which. formerly, were
the only feasible means Of producing
light for domestic use in the rural dis
tricts.
For generations there was a crying
need, q yearning for something better,
which was not satisfied. A few years
ago deliverance came in the shape OF
the chemical compound, Calcium Car
bide, from which, by the simple appli-
cation of water, the gas Acetylene is
derived. Acetylene meets all the re-
quirements fully and admirably and is
being generally used.
Common lime and carbon in the form
Of coke or coal are the raw materials
which, fused in an intensely heated
furnace, make Calcium Carbide, and
there is nc difficulty in obtaining it in
any part Of the country.
The machine into which the Calcium
Carbide is fed and from which the
Acetylene is distributed through the
building to be lighted, is but little larg-
er than a thirty-gallon milk can, and
of the same general form. It is easily
and cheaply installed, either in the cell
! lar or in an outbuilding.
The light from burning Acetylene is
exquisite, and lighting experts agree
that it surpasses all other known illu-
minants. It does not faint the air nor
strain the eyes, and is not objection
able in any respect. Every up-to-date
rural residence should be equipped
! with Acetylene light.

GET POWER.
The Supply Comes From Food.

If we get power from food, why not
strive to get all the power we can.
That is only possible by use Of skilful-
~ selected food that exactly dts the
requirements of the body.
Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a
poor fire is not a good steam producer.
From not knowing how to select
the right food to fit my needs l suf-
fered grievously for a long time from
stomach troubles" writes q lady from
a little town in Missouri.
ct seemed as if l would never be
able to find out the sort of food that
was best for me. Hardly anything
that l could eat would stay on my
stomach. Every attempt gave me
heartburn and filed my stomach with
gas. l got thinner and thinner until l
in time was compelled to keep to my
bed.
"A few months ago I was persuaded
to try Grape-Nuts food. and it had such
good effect from the very beginning
that I have kept up its use ever since.
I was surprised at the cas- with which
I digested it. 1t proved to be just
what l needed. All my unpleasant
symptoms, the heartburn, the inflated
feeling which gave me so much pain
disappeared. My weight gradually
increased from 90 to 116 lbs, my figure
rounded out, my strength came back.
and I am now able to do my house
work and enjoy it. The Grape-Nuts
food did It," Name given by Postum
