BURNING THE YULE LOG.
A Survival From the Alteration Once
Offered to the Sun.

: =
In some parts of Germany the Yule
log is placed on the hearth on Christ
mas eve and il possible kept burning
for two or three days. Then piece of
it is laid aside for the purpose of light
ing the next years log and Of guarding
the household from harm. Pieces Of
fir wood charred but not quite burned
out in the Christmas fire are also
placed under the family bed In some
German villages to avert the dreaded
lightning stroke, which appears in this
relation to be the type of fire in it's
evil aspect, in contradistinction from
the solar orb, the representative Of
tom of burning Yule log for three
days and nights in each homestead is
almost certainly a survival from the
alteration once offered to the sun at
the winter solstice.
Three centuries after the Christian
era sun worship was still maintained
In Brittany, and in Normandy not more
than 100 years ago the household fire
was extinguished on Dec. "a and the
Christmas log was ignited by the aid of
a fame procured from the. lamp burn
ing in the neighboring church. This
! fact affords curious instance of the
probable transference Of respect and
reverencee from the sacred fire of a
purely heather creed to the ecclesias.
IDEAL lights Of Catholicism. When the
pagan rites for procuring unsullied fire
were forbidden or fell into desuetude
the Ideas to which they owed theii
origin and development, instead Of per
ishing, continued to exist more or less
perfectly by attaching themselves t.
usages and ceremonies having no di
rect association with them.

THE "GWEED NEEB0Rs."

A Belief In Fairies Still Exists In Parts
of Scotland. ~
There still fingers q widespread be-
lief in the north of Scotland that the
flair folk or '@gweed neebors," as
the fairies are called, still live. in the
hills, and during the first days Of con-
valescence a mother must be jealous
ly guarded lest one Of the ''wee people,
come and rob the child Of its. nourish-
ment Sometimes they succeed in car
rying off the mother. Here is one of
the superstitious legends:
A north country fisher had a fine
child. One evening beggar woman
entered the hut and went up. to the
cgadle to gaze into the eyes Of the
babe. From that time good health left
it, and a strange look came into it's
face, and the mother was troubled. An
old man begging for food passed that
way. When he caught sight Of the
child he cried: III
THAT'S nae BARN. It's am image;
and the gweed folk has stoun his
speerit." 5@s.4, IL u Z s.
Thereupon he set to work to recall
the fishers BARN. "a peat fire was
heaped high on the hearth and black
hen held over it at such a distance that
twas singed and not killed. After
some struggling the hen escaped up
the lum. A few moments elapsed,
and then the parents were gladdened
by the sight Of happy: expression
once more on the child's face. Tt throve

Mad Doc Scares.

From Forest and Stream: There
would be fewer mad dog scares" in
the cities and towns of this country if
those persons who give millions for
educational and charitable purposes
would set aside modest sums for drink
ing fountains where thirst-maddened
dogs could find solace. 1t is no fault
of the dog that he is brought into the
world to be petted a while and then
turned into the street to shift for
himself. Dogs we will have, whether
or not the city is proper place fol
them, but to let them run at large in
countless thousands without food Oh
water is the height of cruelty as wei
as a menace to those who should be
friend them.

THE DREAD or RABIES.
Out of All Proportion to the Fre-
"a. quency of the Disease. n

Out of All Proportion to the Ere.
queney of the Disease. :
/ Z. Few accidents are more terrifying to
the sufferer than to be bitten by dog
supposed to be mad, and there are few
conditions in which prompt and intelli-
gent action on the part Of the bystand.
ers is more desirable.
Although nearly all warm blooded
animals are susceptible to rabies, it is
most commonly seen in dogs There
are two forms-the furious and the
dumb" In the furious type after a
period Of melancholy or depression the
animal becomes restless and irritable,
with a tendency to run away and snap
at everything in sight, finally becoming
subdued and sullen and dying of
paralysis and exhaustion. In dumb
rabies the stage of irritabillty is alb.
sent. The dog prowls about in a list
less way, with his head down and lower
jaw dropped. At the same time there
is difficulty in swallowing. 5}sf3
1t is often impossible to tell from a
dogs actions whether it is rabid or not
But if instead of killing the animal as
quickly as possible, as is often unwise-
ly done, the owner captures it and
keeps it for few days under lock and
key the question answers itself. A
rabid dog always dies in from four to
eight days, so that If the animal re-
covers the bitten persons may be sure
that they are not going to develop by
drophobia. ~ f5s 2
In any suspicious case the wound
should Immediately. be squeezed under
hot water and If deep be incised freely,
so that cauterization with either hot
iron or with strong nitric acid mot with
lunar caustic) may be thoroughly done.
At the same time the dog should be
kept under observation, or if already
killed the head and neck should be
packed in ice and preserved for med
ical examination. .ls@g @3s ~
Even if it seems certain that the ami
NAL was rabid the patient should not
despair, for it Is estimated that only Is
per cent of those bitten by rabid ami
mails actually develop the disease, and
if the Pasteur preventive NEGOTIATIONS
are promptly begun recovery is almost
certain. " et{#.
The popular dread Of rabies is out of
all proportion to the relative frequency
of the disease, and the length to which
it may go is shown by the instances in
which people have developed and even
died of false hydrophobia, a nervous
condition due to fright and Stimulating
to some extent the real malady. -

New Democrats Pleased With
the Way His Candidacy
Is Received
Believe That Lieut.. Governor
Will Eliminate Bryan
ism from Campaign

New York, Sept. 13-The democrat
ic politicians in the Empire State
are greatly pleased with the favor
able comment made throughout the
country on the candidacy of Lieu
tenant Governor Lewis Stuyvesant
Chanler for the presidency. The sug-
gestion that Lieutenant Governor
Chanler become candidate came
originally from the South It was
looked upon as good thing by the
politicians here, and before the gov
ernor really knew it himself, he was
entered in the race as the favorite
son of New York state. The fight
is now on in real earnest for dele
gates in every state in the country.
The situation in New York state
is very simple. There is no opposi-
ton to Chanler. in any quarter and
at the next meeting of the state COM
mittee, which viii be held in Jan
uary, there will be unanimous en-
dorsement of his candidacy. This
brings all. the leaders of the party
in line for him and may be the
means OF healing the political wounds
that have kept the party in tur-
MOL for the last dozen years.
At the National Democratic Club
the sentiment for Chanler is very
strong. He is a personal friend of
the president of the club, John Fox.
Mr. Fox is a millionaire, being large
" interested in the iron commission
3 business. While not active in poll
tics, his voice is strong in the coun-
eils of Tammany Hall.
The support of President Fox
means that ex-Mayor Van Wyck and
job P. Carol, the former leader of
Tammany, now president of one of
the most important business banks
1 in the city, will get aboard the Chan
Ter band wagon. .n
These men all represent big bust
ness interest and one reason for get
ting behind Chanler is to bring about
ssdae elimination of Bryan. However
magnetic Bryan's name may be on
the prairie, it has an ominous sound
to business men in the East. They
welcome the candidacy, of any one
that will put an end to the program
trof disaster so long monopolized by
+sthe democratic party. These gen
stit5.tsmen look upon Chanler as the only
man who can carry New York state,
& and they know that if the democracy
is to win in the nation it must carry
{ the Empire State. With national
democratic administration in power
Il the democratic club would become
one of the institutions of the coun-
try.
In the more practical field of pol
itics the Chanler sentiment has TAX

Why u 10 That Ice at Times viii
VI Crack or Burst.
I Ice never bursts from freezing AZ
soon as the liquid OF which it Is COM
posed is frozen solid expansion ceases.
The cracking or bursting of ice is
brought about in this way: When wa
ter is subjected to extreme cold ice
crystals will gradually form on its sur
face until the same are covered with q
thin coat of what appears to be wet
snow. From this outer coating Of Ice
crystals all subsequent freezing goes
downward, the ice thickening accord
ing to the degree of cold The water
which is being converted into ice now
begins to expand, creating pressure
Upon the unfrozen water below. This
pressure is both downward and out
ward, and in case the water under OBJ
servation is in vessel the sides and
bottom of the receptacle supply the re-

AS the freezing process continues the
pressure upon the confined water and
air in the interior of the bulk Increases
until something yields. If the vessel
be stronger than the ice stratum that
has formed over the surface the layer
Of ice will be bent upward at the cen
ter, that being the weakest point, on
account of the, fact that the outer
edges of the CONCEALED mass are frozen
fast to the sides of the vessel in which
the experiment is being made. In this
condition the center of the ice contin-
ues to rise or bulge until it bursts
from the resistance of the water below
Could the vessel be tapped from below
and the water drawn off no amount Of
freezing would be sufficient to crack
or bulge the ice layer on the surface.
