when the noise from Dams
shrieking engine reached the crowd Of
desperate men on the square. Then
presently they heard the rattle and
clash Of the fire engines as they were
dragged through the street and were
aware that the relief train had arrived,
but it was not until the doctor came in
some time long after midnight that
they knew who had been the savior of
the town.

The life saving service has received
a report of the resuscitation of Robert
had been under water for twenty three
minutes. The man had been thrown
into the water On July by the cap
sizing of boat. In the operation one
gallon of water was expelled from his
lungs. An artificial respiration was
kept up for one hour and forty eight

Bread and Milk For Longevity.
The bol,y OF Mrs. Mary Fay, who

qniry brought out the fact that the
old lady had lived for forty years al
most exclusively upon a diet of dried
bread and milk, refusing meat or veg

wondering if this tcorroborates to some
extent the theory of Professor Metch-

Long Distance Weather Predictions.
Professor E. A Gregory, astronomer
oof Queens college, London, says in a
recent article that with a more init
mIte and continuous knowledge OF the
meteorology OF the sun the prediction
OF weather over much longer period
Will be possible and practicable He
holds a theory of weather periodicity
based ON a solar eyele-the cycle of
thnty-fve years-shown by solar phe-
nomena, corresponding exactly with d
cycle of meteorological changes on the
EARTH The theory lis partly justified
by the discovery several years ago by
Professor E. Bruckner that there is
periodic variation in climate over the
whole earth. the average length of the
cycle being thirty-fve years. Rainfall,
pressure and temperature, movement
Of glaciers. frequency of severe win
Iers or the height of water in rivers
and lakes. all vary year by year; but,
individual years, it is found
that the conditions for about seven
teen years are above the average, while
for the next seventeen years they are |
below the average. 1t is predicted that /
for the next ten years the pressure
will be below the normal and the rain
all above what is usual

The committee of experts of the FL

the Chicago Commercial association
which for two weeks investigated con-
ditions at the stockyards reported that
the food products are wholesome and
that the inspection is more rigid than
that employed in the abattoirs of Ger
many. It recommends that the gov
eminent establish training schools for
meat inspectors. The committee did
not mention the names of any of the
establishments visited. The report
says that. much of the criticism was
directed at the older buildings and
that these are rapidly being replaced
by modern ones 1t adds that part of
the criticism is based upon an aes-
thetic taste and popular demand that
food products be produced in places
conforming to certain vague Ideals"
