talked with easy assurance and appeared
to have no shadow of doubt that he
would pass the crisis in his career as
fighter with flying colors.

going to do SO. l am sure to knock

Jim Jeffries.
Six O'Clock Here.
AS there are no matchmaking condi-
lions, the fighters are expected to enter
the ring at o'clock sharp. The pre-
Hminaries start at 1:45 o'clock.
When the two champs enter the ring the
difference in weight will be around twen-
ty-five pounds. Ketchell thinks he will
weigh in at IT'S. Johnson's manager said
that he was willing to have johnson
weighed in the ring and that the figure
would he between 1914 and 1875 pounds.
In the betting Johnson still holds 10

teen rounds. There is a healthy ketchell

vice of high officials of the govern
ment while carried on various De-
partment payrolls is not a new thing
1t got so common few years ago
as not to be regarded as at all un-
usual, 1t was not an uncommon
sight to see a daytime colored mes
senger at night perched on the driv-
er's seat OF some Cabinet officers
rig, resplendent in his private livery,
conveying members of the same off
ciaPs family to and from social func
tion. 1t was rather hard on the mes
senger, who thus did double duty
for single pay, but as long as
there was no kick coming from the
messenger the Cabinet Officer didn't
mind what the general public thought.
Not so many years ago member of
President Cleveland's second Cabi-
net employed his colored official
messenger as his personal driver and
also as flunkey at his home at
night. This same Cabinet member
delegated this messenger to his sons
personal service while on a tour
through Europe, that the colored
man might do duty as a valet. On
their return to this country, the mes
senger was returned to his former
job in the Department, and he so
serves to this day
But Congress, learning Of these
special assignments, fell into a mood
for investigation not many sessions
ago. There were some bitter remarks
made in the House, and the practice
got into bad odor 1t is seldom now
that these stories are heard, and that
they should be renewed, with the
President as the seeming offender,

WHAT'S YOUR TEMPERATURES

What is a persons normal tempera-
ture?--is often asked Of every physi-
clan.
When the answer 98.6 deg. r. is made
to the query, very few people under
stand the physiological significance
of this fact, or how degree OF sys-
temic heat is maintained so
that their bodies have an even tenn
perature the coolest day in winter or
the hottest day in summer, with an
exactness of adjustment that is not
obtainable in warming or cooling
their homes with the most up-to-date
heating and refrigerating apparatus.
Now, in accepting the statement
that the body temperature is o8.6 deg.
f., it must be borne in mind that to
some extent this is relative figure,
for the warmth Of the exterior varies
markedly from that Of theinterior.
The surface temperature Of the head,
hands or abdomen may differ from
90 deg. r. down to 90 deg. +. or lower
while that Of the internal regions
may extend up to 1922 deg. r., the
average Of blood circulating in or
gans like the liver, panereas and kid
neys. For practical purposes some
gauge must be accepted whereby
normal temperature may be measur-
ed and compared Therefore, on ac.
count Of convenience and practicality
the temperature taken carefully un-
der the tongue by clinical ther-
mometer has been selected as a com
mon standard throughout medicinal
circles. II Is sometimes recorded in
