IS THE SUN HOT OR colp7
Sun and Hot Stove Send Out Same
Kind Of Energy.

So far as | know, no reasons at all
for doubling the high temperature Of
the central body of the solar system
have ever been found. There are in
general three distinct ways in which
heat can be transferred from one
body to another-conduction convcc-
ton and radiation. The first two are
dependent upon the presence of mat
ter; the latter will take place across
a perfect vacuum.
We may receive heat from a stove
by all three methods. If we place
our hands upon it we receive heat by
conduction; If we hold them above it
they are warmed by convection, the
heat being brought to them by the
rising current OF hot air. II now we
stand in front of the stove we still
feel its warmth, the sensation in thi $
case being produced by the heat
waves which it enters. These waves
are similar to the electric waves used
In wireless telegraphy, differing from
them only in their length. They bear
the same relation to them as the rip
pies on a mill pond bear to the At
lantic rollers. With the instruments
at our disposal at the present time
we can measure the length of these
waves as accurately as we can meas
ure the length Of table with a foot
rule, and we can prove that they will
pass through a vacuum, a plate Of
glass or tank full of liquid air with
out losing their ability to warm our
hands. We find, however, that IL we
pass this radiant heat through certain
substances. water vapor, for instance,
its intensity is diminished owing to
the fact that some of the waves have
been absorbed. It Is possible to deter
mine the exact length Of the waves Of
heat which have been removed by
absorption In the vapor, and If we test
the radiation which comes to us from
the sun we find that waves OF this
same length are absent. the water
vapor in the earth's atmosphere hav-
ing refused to transmit them. This
fact, taken alone, is pretty good evi-
dence that the sun and the hot stove
are pouring out the same kind OF
energy.-R. W. Wood in Haper's
Weekly.

HoMAs A. EDISON, the in


ventor, in mapping out the
Al" problems Of the future, gives
~ hrst place to the necessity OF
AyLK fighting the bacteria which
-3- rive us our diseases. Next
to the actual bacteria Of dis
ease, the mosquitoes and flies
are the most dangerous enemies OF man.
The mosquito with its bite injects into our
veins malaria, yellow fever, and other fatal
troubles. The fly, with sporgy feet, collects
the invisible germs of diseases, spreads
them over our food and poisons us with
typhoid, cholera and other plaques of the
human race.
Dr.. Pierce, the eminent physician Of Buff
faio, N. Y, says, uf each person will CON
slider his system a. an army of men which
he controls as a general, and will see to It's
proper provisioning and that II has plenty
Of ammunition In the shape Of good red
blood, he will be able to overcome the
enemy In these germs Of disease" Every
healthy man has FIVE million red blood
corpuscles to every square millimeter Of
blood. The best tonic for increasing the red
blood corpuscles and building up healthy
tissue Is no doubt DR.. Plerce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. This medicine has been on
the market for over q third Of a century
and numbers its cures by the thousand.
Many popular patent medicines or tonics
are made up largely of alcohol and will

make them weaker for resistance. What
10 needed Is an alternative extract, like DR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, made
Of roots and herbs, without the use Of alco-
hol, that will assist the stomach in assmi-
lating or taking from the food such ele.
ments az are required for the blood, also an
Alternative that will assist the activity Of the
liver and cause It to throw of the poisons
in the blood. When we have accomplished
this we have put the system in fortified
condition 90 strong that II can repel the
germs Of disease which we find every
where re-in the street-cars, the shops, the
factories, the bedrooms, wherever many
people congregate, or where sunlight and
good air do not penetrate.
