rises and is carried away.
The small machines which are put
inside the house and the machines
which force gasoline in liquid form
through pipes, are more dangerous,
because gasoline is in the building.
What happens when attempts are
made to fill one of these machines by
the light of a lamp or candle is not
known because none of the persons
who tried it were subsequently in a
condition to give information.
Liquid gasoline never e%xpiodes.
1t cannot because it contains no oXy-
gen and oxygen is necessary to the
combustion which constitutes and ex-
plosion. The high explosives used
in war all contain so much oxygen
that they can be exploded without the
presence of air. A mixture of gaso-
line in vapor form with eight to eighty
per cent of air forms a high explosive
which will run an automobile or fire
a cannon ball.
A recently emptied can is the one
most likely to explode from a spark
or hot match stick falling into it, for
it contains air and vapor n the pro-
portion to make an explosive mixture.
When a can is full Of gasoline it's
vapor cannot be exploded. The vapor
coming from the mouth of a can will

The number of buildings fired by

them where the blaze touches burn.

The gasoline Is kept under pressure

one element missing-Pepsin. The
absence of this destroys the function
of the gastric fluids. They lose their
power to digest food.
We are now able to supply the
pepsin in a form almost identical to
that naturally created by the system
when in normal health, so that it re-
stores to the gastric juices their di-
gestive power, and thus makes the
stomach strong and well.
We want everyone troubled with
indigestion and dyspepsia to come to

OF EDUCATIONAL VALUE.

Here Is what Dean Davenport at the
Illinois Agricultural college says OF the
International Live Stock exposition OF
Chicago. which Is to be held at the
union stock yards from Nov. p to
Dec. 10:
Not one, not even those responsible
for its development, has adequate con
ception Of the influence of he Inter
national upon American live stock in
t,rests. As a practical educator it can
not be surpassed; as a stimulous TO
trade. it has no equal is a means OF
shaping p licies and correcting ideals,
it's influence is supreme.
"A decade or two ago such a thing
would not have been possible in this
country. 1t seems incredible o that
a company organized primarily for
business. should see its way to eX-
pend so much time. energy and money
in the establishment Of such an eX-
position. That it will pay there is no
doubt. The pay viii come IN a thou
sand way9. The live stock interests
will be more prosperous; the individ-
ual former who lives by j. will be more
successful, aad the multitude of inter
ests that depend upon live stock will
thrive the better fer it.
The marvel of it all is that such 4
thing could be at all. 1t shows the
breadth of the commercial spirit in
this country, the generosity of live
stock men. and the readiness of the
American farmer to respond to modern
methods and conditions.
What should be said of the man
who does not go? That he is blind to
his W best interests is certain; that
he will get behind in the race and be
lost in the shuttle is no less true; that
the young man who will come ON after
him will ultimately possess his herds
and his land, goes without saying.
This is the age when every business
be studied, and farming is no
exception. indeed it looks more and
more as if farming were. coming TO be
one of the most complicated profess
and that the more is learned of it
the more complicated it becomes.
Let the International live long and
prosper. This certainly will be true.
The only uncertainty is how much
good will individuals get out Of it. This
rests entirely upon them and depends
upon whether they attend the exposi-
ton or whether they stay at home
and find fault with what they have not
helped TO accomplish. May they and
go"

DANGERS OF GASOLINE.

A pint of gasoline spilled in a clos
ed room will make 20 cubic feet Of
air a high explosive. A high ex-
plosive' is one which on ignition eX-
pands with greater force than gun
powder.
About seven-eights of the gasoline
sold is known as 6S degrees-that is.
its weight is 6S per cent that Of
water. This is the kind sold by groc-
ers for heating and lighting. Different
lots of it vary two or three degrees
IL specific gravity. Galsolene heavier
than this but lighter than Kerosene Is
known to the trade as naptha or ben.
zine. 1t is used by dry cleaners. For
automobile engines "stove" gasoline is
used in summer and naptha of 76 de-
grees in winter.
Death by burning is death in it's
most horrible form. Gasoline vapor
is exploded by the same accidents as
gunpowder and it's being invisible
adds greatly to the danger. There
fore the state should limit the sale as
the sale of other high explosives is
limited.
The cheapest and most dangerous
source of light is the gasoline lamp.
In some states the use of gasoline
for lighting is prohibited by statute.
There are twenty odd styles of these
lamps which are well made and
which will stand the pressure caused
by their contents becoming heated.
Gasoline warmed to the temperature
of the human body expands so as to
cause a pressure of 112 pounds to the
square inch OF it's c~ontainer. At 12O
degrees the pressure is 1875 pounds.
The danger is from handling gaso
line in the house. The fluid is likely
to be splashed about. Some one may
try to- fill the reservoir while the
lamp is lighted or the burner may be
left open. A gasoline lamp which
can be moved or carried about 1t toe

Foot Ball

Last Sunday the Newport football
boys, together with a goodly number
OF rooters, came to our city full
OF hopes of returning home with
Toledo's scalp. A few hours later,
however, they were seen marching,
in somewhat of funeral like pro-
cession and without a single cheer for
the victors, towards the wharf to en-
bark for home. For it so happened
that the over er-confident visiting team
was beaten by the Toledo High
School team. The score being 5 to
10.
The game was begun by Newport
receiving the kick off, and after sea-
saving for some time without much
gain to either side, one of Toledo's
huskey little ends succeeded in re-
covering a punt and placing the ball
within a few feet of Newport's goal
In the following down, by a fierce
line buck, touch down was made.
The remainder of the game was play
ed near the center of the field
neither goal being in danger at anv
time.
1t was a good game, most of the
boys showing good football qualities
while those who possessed none of
these put their time chewing the
rag as usual.
Aupperle of Newport acted as
referee.
We understand that the team
victorious is to play the team defeat
ed a return game, on the Newport
grounds, Thanksgiving day.
