The Divining Rod Explained.

During the past twenty years
have met the assertions of practical
Men and all newspaper claims as
regards the efficacy of the divining
rod as means of discovering water,
With skeptical smile. have always
believed that those who used it either
deliberately utilized their expert OBJ
servations of local conditions, which
made the securing of water probable,
TO fool people by giving credit to the
little forked willow stick, or else un-
consciously allowed this expert
knowledge to act on their nerves and
thus equally unconsciously allowed
their muscles to act on the stick and
thus make it bend toward the earth
as soon as they had made up their
minds that the lay of the land fav-
pred the existence of water at the
spot thus indicated. Nor am 1 now
convinced that this may not be the
case; but l confess to some doubt
whether l may not be mistaken
aroused by reading an article on the
question in Danish paper the other
day, of which 1 make the following
Abstract:
It seems that a Mr.. Franzius, of
Kiel. Germany, who did not believe
In this peculiar power of the willow
twig, wrote to certain Mr.. Bulow,
who has quite reputation as well
seeker by its aid, and invited him to
show his power Cor that of the twig)
In locality which he (Franzius) had
previously surveyed and by frequent
borings located all the subterranean
Water courses.
When Mr.. Bulow arrived he used.
however, a fork made of wire (kind
of metal not mentioned) instead Of
the willow, and succeeded in astound-
ing the skeptic by the eKactness with
which he located the water courses
and their directions in perfect agree
ment with the map previously pre-
pared. In the only place where Mr..
Bulow and his wire fork disagreed
with the map, it turned out that he
was right! This made a convert of
Mr.. Franzius. who found that even
he could locate water, although not
with the exactness of Mr.. Bulow.
The tests are described and the
wire fork illustrated. The operator
grasps the wire fork Gig. Al with
both hands and bends the fork in the
manner shown in Fig. B and carries
It in such manner that the free

Another Food Fad.

Tea is proclaimed an as intoxicant
by an inspired writer in York, (Pa.)
daily newspaper, who mixes some
facts with good deal of fiction in
explaining his theory. The story
sounds like an emanation from the
producers of coffee substitutes and is
worth reading as curiosity. The
York paper says: "Those good per.
sons who are included in the list
of tea and toast philosophers and tea
drinkers generally, will be interested
in the statement of medical auth
ority that the juice of the tea leaf
ranks second only to alcohol as an
intoxicant.
DIR. Charles H, Scott, of the Chicago
board of health, has compiled some
statistics bearing on this subject, and
he finds that all of the patients who
apply for treatment at the chief dis
pensary of that city, fully ten per
cent are tea drunkards.
They are ignorant of the fact, but
the symptoms of their case point.
Enthusiastically. to over indulgence in
tea, and that presumption or inquiry
is confirmed by their confessions
They suffer from headache, Vertigo,
insomnia, palpitation of the heart,
mental confusion, nightmare, nausea,
Authorizations, morbid depressing of
spirits and sometimes from suicidal
impulses.

train or telegraph line in action, and
it does not "act' at all when the OPP
orator carries rubbers on his feet!
This indicates that the action or in
f1uence is an electric one, especially
as it also ''acts" if weak electric
shock is given the one who carries
it.
But how it is possible that the
subterranean water should have this
electrical effect through the soil?
The explanation has been given that
the water has a 'tradio-activity, the
water giving off various currents and
some of these pass through the soil
with undiminished force and cause
the air above to become negatively
electrical" and act on the operator
so that the handle of the fork bends.
This explanation, says the author of
the article, is probably correct, as
there is a great difference between
various persons susceptibility. The
electrical resistance of the skin may
vary from 1900 to $4,000 ohm, and
the force required to produce mus

The Eccentricity Of saIt.

Perhaps the strangest freak that
Mother Nature ever played upon a
miner was at Lodi twenty miles south
of the city of Indianapolis. So long
ago as 1929 man named Norbourn
Thomas hored there for salt, and
found at a depth of $50 feet brine
from which he could make thirty
bushels of salt day. Later he bored
to 500 feet, and was able to make
fifty bushels a day. Some years
passed, and he took a brother into
partnership and despened The we'll
still furthers They then got 200
bushels of salt daily, and the enter
prising Thomas made large fort.
une.
In the seventies came the oil boom,
and the Thomas salt we'll was rebor-
ed in the hope of finding petroleum.
A depth of 1,135 feet was reached
when suddenly the drill was blown
out by terrific rush of water, and
the company was forced to abandon
work. Five years ago it was discoy-
cred quite by chance that the still
flowing we'll was producing water
charged with mineral salts of the
very greatest value. and today Lodi
is a rapidly growing and fiourish.r

Messenqer Boy Detectives.

That messenger boys make good
detectives was the assertion of the
superintendent of one Of the local
offices of the Western Union Tele.
graph Company recently, and when
asked to explain his remark he said:
"Not long ago a woman came TO
the office and requested our aid In
locating her five-year-old boy, who,
she declared, had strayed from her
side in Broad street station. For
tunately the distracted mother had
with her photograph of the missing
boy, which we gave to one OF our
bright lads with instructions to go
to the station and search for the wan.
derer. He departed on his errand.
While we were waiting his return
the telephone bell rang and a voice
asked if we had sent messenger to
the station. We replied in the affirm
alive. Thereupon the receiver was
rung up, and shortly afterward the
mother had the satisfaction of clasp
ing to her heart her lost darling.
The embryo detective received a 50
bill for his work, and the woman left
vowing she would recommend our
boys to any one losing children. AT.
terward we learned that policeman
had heard our messenger trying to
persuade the child to go with him.
and thinking it case of kidnapping
had prevented it until assured by
us that everything was all right. -

as nearly a horizontal position as
possible. The handle indicates
the water by diverging from the hori-
zontal position. When the wire fork
is held in the above position it re-
quires but a slight movement of the
muscles to make the handle" move.
and the question then arises how this
movement of the muscles is caused
by the operator passing over the sub
terranean water. The experiment of
Mr.. FTanzius showed this plainly,
