BENEFITS OF YAWNING.
German Doctor Says Gaping Acts as q
Tonic to the System.

According to the teachings of physi-
olOgy, 1t Is long drawn, fOrcible In
spiration, followed by shorter respi-
ration. According to DR.. Naegeli, the
great European physician. it is one Of
natures many remedies, the proper
application of which depends upon
good Judgment.
In yawning not only the muscles
which move the lower jaw are used,
but also the breathing muscles of the
chest, and he who yuwns in the proper
way also raises and extends the arms.
In the deepest inspiration the chest re-
mains extended for short time, the
eyes are almost or entirely closed, the
ears somewhat raised, the nostrili
dilated. Inside the mouth the tongue
Is round and arched, the palate sttiiy
most entirely closing the space be-
tween the nose and throat. At the
beginning of the inspiration q cracking
noise is heard in the ears, Il proof that
the duct leading to the hearing also
succumbs to this stretching.
Although person yawning does not
present very agreeable appearance,
yawn Is very agreeab BILE to the per
son yawning, for the stretching Of
muscles causes feeling of comfort.
1t acts like massage and is the most
natural gymnastics of the lungs imagi-
nable. DR.. Naegeli therefore advises
people not to concern themselves with
so called decency, but every morning
and evening and as often as possible
to exercise the lungs and all the mus
cles Of respiration by yawning and
stretching, as many chronic lung trou-
bles may thus be prevented.
He orders the patient troubled with
too much wax in the ears, accompa-
MED with pain, to yawn often and
deeply He also in cases of nasal ca
tarrh, inflammation of the palate, sore
throat and earache orders the patient
as often as possible during each day
to yawn from six to ten times sue
cessively and Immediately after to
swallow. The result will be surpris-
ing. If one looks upon yawning as a
natural massage for certain organs,
he will reach satisfactory explana-
ton Of its curative properties.

Dresden who Is said to expect TO
teach all human beings TO wear wood

pulp as for paper the wood Is inpreg-
mated with chemicals and woven into
yarns and threads OF various thick
nesses. This is called ZyZolln and Is
woven by ordinary looms into wooden
linens, canvas, etc.
The clothes made from these are
from three to ten times as cheap AS the
WOODEN or cotton articles. BY varying
the treatment of the pulp the garments
can be made rs warm as wool or ms
cool as shcerest linen. In few

THE BLowPIPE AT WORK.

can do is described in an article con.
tributed by DR.. Georges Nitoux to La
Nature:
This instrument differs from the or
dinary OXyacetylenc blowpipe Dy the
addition of Il third tube, controlled by
stopcock, whose purpose is to direct
on the object heated 10y the blowpipe
q central jet of oxygen that effects the
combustion of the metal.
"The apparatus is easily handled.
The blowpipe being connected by iex-
ible tubing with TASKS of compressed
oxygen and of acetyene dissolved in
acetone under pressure, the acetylene
is first lighted, and by then opening
the oxygen stopcock gradually there Is
obtained an extremely hot flame, with
which the sheet TO be cut Is raised to
bright red. When the temperature
Is high enough the third stopcock Is
opened, and violent but very slender
jet of oxygen is directed upon the heat
ed metal. Under its action the metal
burns brilliantly. throwing off show.
ers of sparks formed of magnetic oxide,
and if the jet be moved gradually the
combustion continues, but only in the
track Of the oxygen jet. Thus is OBJ
tained perfectly clean cut, SO mar
row that knife blade can scarcely be
inserted in it,"
Two sizes of apparatus for this op'
GRAFTON have, we are told, been re-
Gently placed on the market in France.

thickness, willie the larger can deal
with material rs thick as twelve inches.
The smaller consumes about ninety
gallons of aceWlene per hour, the lar
ger over twice as much.

STRETCHING THE DAYLIGHT.

The Long Island railroad has asked
its commuters to vote on proposal
to make all the morning trains to the
city Is minutes later and all the
afternoon trains out 10 minutes
earlier. A surprisingly large proper
ton of the voters favor the change,
which would shorten by half an hour
their day in the city, says the New
York World.
A visitor from Europe in New York
gets the idea that it is a place where
everybody works hard, fast and long;
how much of this impression is de-,
rived from the mere clatter of cars
and vehicles up and down the longest
and narrowest great city in the world
is hard to say.
A visitor from Chicago finds New
Workers easw-going. Elevated and
subway trains do not fool him. he
finds the men he sees on business
getting to their worwk late, lunching
leisurely and leaving early; he finds
10 costly restaurants where money
can be wasted to one such place In
Chicago. and these constantly filled
with dawdlers; he finds the purveying
of trashy amusements developed to
a greater business than it is any
where else on earth; he thinks in con-
sequence, though he has not seen
everything necessary to a decision,
that New York is a place to spend
money rather than to earn it.
An Englishman has lately proposed
that his nation shall get more day
light out of doors by setting all the
clocks forward 80 minutes in summer
only.
New York, without troubling the
clock, shortens the working day at
both ends. With the growth Of
leisure class and with the initiative
ness of the well-to-dO we are fast ap-
preaching a condition where business
men who can command their own
time will work as few hours in year
az those of London.

TILE DESERTERS.

Charity workers in New York city
say that they find more families de,
serted in the poor quarters of that
city this fall than ever before. The
pinch Of hard times, the disappear
anee of small jobs which furnished
living for hundreds of poor fami-
lies, have been a terrible blow to the
tenement dwellers.
Like animals, when men are driven
to the last ditch, self-preservation
becomes stronger than love of wife
or children and the man flees from
the impending disaster. But these
deserted families, what of them?
How are they faring in the absence
of the runaway man?
Sweet charity is caring for them.
In the shadow of New York's palaces,
charity is doing out its pittance to
the hungry mothers and babes while
poodle dog dinners, monkey theater
parties and other fashionable func-
tions are being celebrated on Fifth
avenue.
And the men, what of them? They
are the tSamps at your door; they are
the vagabonds in your police courts;
they are the laborers on public
works; they are the beggers on your
streets; they are the weary pilgrims
following the long stretches Of the
railroads, hungering, hoping, wan
dering, in strange lands; they are the
skulking forms wandering in your
streets. alleys, lanes, looking with
eyes at the lights OF
the happy homes and wondering
what mas become of a miserable lit
tie family in the darkenlng shadows
of Gotham's ghettos.

FOR EFFECTIVE PROHIBITION.

1t seems that one important addi-
ton should be made TO the local op-
ton or prohibition law Of oregon to
insure effective prohibition in prohl-
bition territory.
It should be a crime under heavy
penalty for express or freight carry
ing companies to bring intoxicating
liquors into prohibition territory. 1t
IL illogical to make It a crime to sell
or give liquor away in prohibition
territory, and yet leave the gate open
for express and freight carrying COM
panies to bring it into such territory
Friends of temperance should see
that the next legislature adds a
strong clause of this kind to the local
option law. The penalty should be
heavy enough that the express and
railroad companies cannot afford to
take the risk Of carrying it into dry
territory. Then effective prohibition
will follow.
AS it is now, whiskey and beer may
be shipped into prohibition territory
in any quantity, peddled out freely to
the consignees and there is but little
remedy for IT, So public sentiment
will fix the prohibition law right
within a few years.

AVIATION.

The tests Of flying machines in
London and Lemans, France, this
month have brought aviation, the
science of navigating the air, into
greater prominence than ever before
Wonderful progress has been made
in this science. Flying through the
air with a machine Weighing several
tons is now not impossible. The
world has witnessed flights this week
which a few years ago would have
been considered miraculous. But to-
day the keen edge of wonder is dull
ed and no miracle startles the world.
The aerial artists have so nearly
conquered the air, that it will be but
a decade, perhaps less, until practi-
cally all of the travelling over the
globe will be by flying machines. This
may seem to be a wild prophecy but
indications of today bear it out.
Imagine picking yourself up and
flying to Portland, taking a "bee line"
over the Columbia river, Cascade
mountains and all intervening obsta-
cles. Good roads will be useless, ex-
cept for emergency. Automobiles will
be hauled into the sheds to rust Rail-
roads will be torn up. Carriages and
buggies will be but crude make
shifts when the final conquest of the
air is complete.
Not only will large machines for
carrying scores of people be used
within a short time, but it is almost
certain that individual machines, like
bicycles, will be perfected by which
every man, woman and child may
make Independent flights when and
where they choose through the air,
in which they will be limited only by
their own power of endurance or cur
iosity.
The gates of the Wonder age are
swinging ajar
