FALLING BODIES.

Their Velocity Varies According to the
Force of Gravity.
A man falling from a three story
building in New Orleans will not fall
as fast as he would if he were in New
York city. In fact. in hardly any two
places will he fall with the same
speed. This is because as we go to
ward the equator the force of gravity
gets less and less. and consequently
the acceleration of a falling body be
comes less. and the force of impact Is
therefore less
While it does not make very mu"h
difference in the injury to d pprS,,i
falling from Il height. it does make 8
difference in other things Take a Ri.
and fire ii exactly horizontally. and
1.-THE gun is sixteen feet above IT,
ground. say. at New York the buIlt
fired from such a rifle will strike the
ground in exactly one second after il
leaves the rifle. If the bullet has a
horizontal velocity of 1000 feet per
second it will strike the earth exactly
1000 feet away. Let US take the same
rifle to a place where the force of
gravity is not the same as at New
York, but a good deal smaller. say
two-thirds smaller. We find that if
the gun is placed sixteen feet above
the ground. as before, and absolutely
horizontal the bullet will not fall the
sixteen feet in one second. but will
take owe one and a half seconds to
fall, thus enabling the bullet to be In
the air during that length of time.
Therefore it will strike the ground
about 1000 feet away. Thus it is seen
that the range Of a rife is increased
as it is taken toward the equator.
OF course there is no place on the
earth where the force of gravity is
two-thirds smaller than at New York,
but there are many places where the
difference is considerable enough to
affect slightly the range Of rifes.-Har-

INDIGESTION
A Disorder that Breeds Dis
ease in the Body, and an
Easy Way to Cure it.

Take care of the stomach and you will
have little need for the doctor.
When the stomach begins to show
signs of disorder: when the food digests
slowly and with discomfort; when you
have heartburn; feel bloated and uneasy,
you are in a condition that needs atten-
ton.
Prickly Ash Bitters corrects the dis
ordered stomach by strengthening and
toning up the digestive organs, driving
the badly digested food into the bowels
and thence out of the system.
Constipation is nearly always pres
ent when the stomach becomes soul or
disordered. Prickly Ash Bitters con-
tains the medicinal qualities which act
as a restorative and regulator for the
stomach and bowels. 1t strengthens the
digestive organs, cures constipation and
prevents the return of bilious conditions.
Thousands of people who have re-
ceived lasting benefit from this great
remedy willingly testify to its power in
curing indigestion, constipation and kid
ney trouble.
81 suffered from constipation for years, and
tried many remedies, but Prickly Ash Bitters is
the only medicine that has ever done me any
good. Through its use I am now in good health
and entirely free from all traces of my former
erouble."-B. P. Sr1eALL, winnsbore, Louisiana.

This Payne-Aldrich-Smoot monstros-

Mr.. Clark referred to Speaker Can

said the Payne tariff bill was the best
ever passed, and that Representative
Mann. of Illinois. was the most val
liable legislator in Congress.
II am doing Uncle Joe kindness, -
said Mr.. Clark. "by suggesting that he
might very much improve his own
speeches by adopting as part Of them
Mann's speech against the conference
report on the Payne Aldrich bill. BY
the way, why did not Mr.. Speaker Can
non read brother Mann out of the party
along with Senator Cummins and Sena-
tor LaFollette?"
Mr.. Clark said, among other things.
that Democratic House should be
elected so as to thoroughly and honestly
investigate the sugar frauds and other
frauds (which are stencil in the nos
trils of the whole people"
Referring to political conventions in
Missouri. the speaker said that while
locust come every is years, a Republi-
can Governor of Missouri appears only
every 40 years. and that Governor
Hadley is the last Republican Governor
of Missouri. that most of us will ever
see." Continuing, Mr.. Clark said:

posed to the personal interest and ambi-
tion of any man or set Of men, including
my own personal interests and ambi-

mount to the welfare af any man or
coterie of men.
''This great mid-winter meeting of
Missouri Democrats augurs well for the
future. Unity of purpose and unity of
action should be our shibboleths in the
impending campaign and through all the
years that stretch before US. AS proved
by the vote in 1908. on Representatives
in Congress and upon all State officers
below Lieutenant Governor, Missouri is
Democratic State, and it is one Of the
anomalies of our politics that she now
has Republican Governor, Republi-
can Lieutenant Governor, one Republi-
can Senator and six Republican Repre-
sentatives in Congress.
