Ini MISE tissue is chiefly composed Of
ht; l. derived from the oily constit-
,ents of food.
ur Tbo fat-making foods are called by
nbvsiologist, Hydrocarbons. This
' ,ass of foods are not digested in the
'i'9 ,och at all. They are digested in
'sO' drodenum, the division of the ali
lns ,torv canal just below the stomach.
T Tho digestion of fat is mainly, if not
lanr. the work of the pancreatic
WIZ .so This Juice is of alkaline reac-
Ean and is rendered inert by the addi-
g Ho of acid. A hyperacidity of the
.irestiye fluids of the stomach passing
rr into the duodenum, destroys
Az nancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
"a.os Therefore, the fats are not di-
pos+od or emulsifled, and the system Is
5onrived of its due proportion of oily
,onstituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning Of the trouble is ca
,,rrbal condition of the stomach which
.ouses hvperacidity of the gastric
,uices. This hyperacidity is caused by
concentration of food in the stomach.
When the food is taken into the stom-
ocb. if the process of digestion does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
tion will take place. This creates .
bvperacidity of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pam
creatic digestion of the oils, and the
emaciation results.
dose of Peruna before each meal
bsstens the stomach digestion. By
burrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation of the contents of the
stomach, and the pancreatic juice is thus
preserved in its normal state. 1t then
onlv remains for the patient to eat q
sufficient amount of fat-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takes its place.

POLAR NIGHT DREAR7.

ri T.
Day. which IL Summer, Endurable,
hut tho Winter Heart-Brealk1ng.
During a polar winter the average
thickness Of the ice on the ocean where
no storms or strong tides interfere
reaches six feet or more. There Is
really no warm season. Even during
the long summer days, says the Science
Monthly, snow falls frequently. Clear
spells are relatively warm, but, espe-
cially in the antarctic, fogs and clouds
are frequent, while winds bring ]
temperatures.
Nevertheless the summer near the
margins Of the arctic zone Is described
in the Journal Of Geography as hav-
ing clean, crisp, pure air, free from
dust and with little precipitation.
The monotony and darkness Of tho
polar night are decreased q good deal
by the long twilight, due to the high
degree of refraction at low tempera-
lures. The sun actually appears and
disappears some days before and after
the times which are geometrically set
for the change.
Light from moon and stars and from
the aurora also relieves the darkness.
Optical phenomena of great variety,
beauty and complexity are common
Solor and lunar halos and coronR and
mock suns and moons are often seen.
Auroras seem to be less common and
less brilliant in the antarctic than IN
the arctic. Sunset and sunrise colors
within the polar zones are described as
being extraordinarily brilliant and inn
pressive.
Thus the north polar summer, in
spite Of its drawbacks, Is in some re-
spects pleasant and healthful season.
But the polar night is monotonous, de-
pressing and evelastingly uniform
snow covering, rigidity, lifelessness, 81
lence, except for the howl of the gale
>or the cracking of ice.
Small wonder that the polar night
has sometimes unbalanced mems minds.
The first effects are often strong de-
sire for sleep and Indifference. Later
effects have been sleeplessness and ner-
vousness, tending in extreme cases to
insanity, anRmia and digestive trOu-
bles.
Extraordinarily low winter tempera.
lures are easily borne If the air is dry
and still. hansen notes mot very
cold" at a temperature Of ~ degrees
when the air was still. Another arctic
explorer at 9 degrees says, 1T is too
warm to skate
Zero weather seems pleasantly re-
freshing il clear and warm. But high
relative humidity and wind, even a
light wind, give the same degree OF
cold penetrating feeling Of chill which
may be unbeArable. Thus the damp
air Of spring and summer usually
seems much cooler than the drier air
Of winter, although the temperatures
may be the same. When exposed d.
rectly to the air the skin burns and
blisters and the lips swell and crack.
Thirst has been much complained Of
by polar explorers, and is surely due
to the active evaporation from the
warm body into the dry, relatively colo
air.
There is no doubt that polar air is
singularly free from heterogeneous,
fact which is due chiefly to lack Of
communication with other parts of the
world; hence diseases which are COM
mon in temperate zones, colds among
them, are rare.

Cut-Up Pictures.


There is a craze just now for section
al pictures. The grown-ups have taken
nm this children's game and are SO
fond of it that they have formed clubs
in Boston just to play 1t. If you want
TO make a sectional picture game III
tell you how.
First. YOU choose a large colored pic
fure-perhaps your mother will let you
take one from large magazine-and
Won paste it on sheet of cardboard
and after it is dry cut it up into little
nieces with nice, irregular edges. The
.grown-ups" paste the picture on a
thin sheet OF wood and cut it up with
q scroll saw and afterward polish the
edges with sandpaper. but this is much
harder to do, although 1t makes the
game more durable. When they are all
cut out mix up the pieces and then try
to fit them together to make the pic
ture again. Even when you have cut
out the game yourself and know what
the picture ought to look like when II
is finished you will find it hard to put
1t together again and when some one
else has made it and you don't know
what the picture Is going to be IL IS
harder. And it is still harder II, when
you cut it out, you separate the diner
ent colors of the picture by cutting
along the outlines of the figures. II
any one asks you to make something
for a fair you might make some sec
tional picture games. Chicago News.

IN BEHALF OF MISSIONS.
Mass Meeting Yesterday Afternoon
Addressed by Bishop Satterlee.


4 mass meeting of local Episcopal con-
yesterday afternoon in - A. r. Conti-
mental Hall. Bishop Henry Y. Satterlee
presided and Rt Rev Charles H.
Brent. Bishop of the Philippines and
Rev c. c. Pierce, United States Army
chaplain, retired. described missionary
work in the Philippines, China and other
lands.
Many Sunday school pupils were pres
ent and they were grouped together and
led the singing. Bishop Satterlee ad-
dressed his remarks chiefly to the chill
dren telling Of the first missionary work
ever done and of it's results. He then in
troduced Bishop Brent.
The meaning of all missionary causes,
he said. is TO bring together the entire
world population as one loving family in
Christ When that is accomplished. he
declared. these will be no need for "a
peace conference. He related some Incl
dents of his work in the Philippines.
What would you think Of mission
ary who rode i25 miles through a blind
ing snow 10 perform the funeral services
over the body Of one person. said the
chaplain. What would you think of a
missionary who RODE ninety miles
through hail storm in order to baptize
a child?
II have seen the men who performed
these acts. They are in Shanghai, emma,
where some of Coos nobemen are now
missionaries.
LET a blush mount your cheeks when
you think that you have not helped to
carry the gospel to any of those who
are without 1t. and that you have not
tried to ease the burden upon those who
are giving their lives for the cause of

BACHELORS AND BENED1crs.
Whether or Not Former Should Be
Taxed Debated by Mems Club.

The annual banquet of the Mems Club
of st. Paul's English Lutheran Church..
corner of 11th and Fl streets northwest.
was given Friday night. The principal
feature of the evening. in addition to the
buffet supper was debate on the ques-
tion affirming that bachelors over thirty
years of age should be taxed The mar
ried members of the club supported the
affirmative. of this proposition and the
unmarried men stoutly opposed any
scheme by which they were to be taxed
or forced into matrmony to avoid the
tax
The affirmative contended that the OBJ
ject of the tax was for the real good OF
the community and of the bachelors them
selves: that by taxing them the bachelor
would. if the tax were made heavy
enough. be forced into matr,mony, A
status which, in the opinion of the affirm
ative. possessed many advantages over
bachelorhood. and thereby. the ba chelor
would be made to bear his share of the
burden OF supporting the female portion
of the community. that the revenue &C.
rived from the taxes on those bachelors
who We're so obstinate as to refuse to
marry should be used in supporting those
women who were unable to obtain huS-
bands by reason of the obstinacy of the
bachelors. and in default of payment de-
linuuent bachelors should be put up at
auction and sold as husbands to the high
est bidders among the spinstsrs.
The negative contended that il was un-
fair to tax a man because he Was I. BE- CHI
elor. as. despite his efforts to do 50. .le
ma! have been unable to obtain :. wife:
that the hardShips of bachelorhood were
already great and the advantages OF
marriage so apparent that no further
hardshpS are necessary to induce men to
marry. that in many instances bachelors
are supporting dependent mothers. sis
ters and other relatives. and therefore
unable to support a wife and family of
their own in addition: that il it was de-
sired to encourage marriage. instead o.
taxing bachelors. pensions OF bounties
should be paid to men who marry and
rear families.
4 bench of eight judges was selected
from the guests. whose de~ision. which
was taken by ballot without leaving ths
room. was in favor of the negative. Their
decision. however. was not unanimous,
three of the judges having voted for the
affirmative.
The club meets monthly in the lecture
room of the church on the second Tues
day of each month. At each meeting
there is debate. Al the next meeting of
the club. Tuesday night February II.
the question for discussion will affirm
that devices containing an element of
chance should not be used for raising
money for church purposes.
