Fish DETECTED a Torpedo,

A school of big fish swan up Noyac
bay, near Sag Harbor, L. l., last week
and investigated the antics of some
bigger fish of variety unknown to
them, which were cutting straight
lines from a torpedo boat to a bulls.
eye target out in the bay. They
learned that the strange-looking fish
were not sharks and that they swan
much faster than anything the big fish
ever saw before.
When they got in front of one OF
the queer fish 1t cut straight through
them and left many mangled big fish
to float ashore and tell the. story. -
This explained why one Of the tor
pedoes was observed zigzagging curl
ously before It struck the target. A
shark tried conclusions last summe,
with test torpedo, with similar ef.

Beware the Snorer.

Man is the only animal that sleeps

Many animals sleep on their sides.
but most sleep prone-that is, face
down. Dogs never dream when prone,
but invariably do SO when sleeping
on their side. All of us from the
country have seen Bung, the hound,
chasing rabbits in his sleep. An ami

let him invent a pillow that will allow

the "back-ur cure" and introduce it in
NIL homes. There is no excuse for
lyiLg on the back and keeping the
spine hot all night, while the front OF
the body-the abdomen, the stomach.
the chest, the throat etc.-is allowed
to become chilled. A hot spine is

hand, cold spine is death.

1t is the roof of the mouth and the
Moor of the nose. Some style it the
hard palate. Back near the throat is
the soft palate. When you aleep or

breathing apparatus and you snora.
Some snores are worse than the mid
night howl OF hyena. Never marry a
woman that snores. Ask her before
You propose if she is addicted to snor-
Ing. and If she says yea" avoid her.
1t is much easier to relax when
sleeping on yOur front than when
sleeping on your back. And what we
all need after touching the bed at
night is relaxation. 1t is billion
pities that some scientist cannot teach
the art Of relaxing. Our strenuous
life, o" course. is not blameless in this
