THE HOME PAPER

How many country newspapers are there that could live six months if they had to depend up- on the income derived from suh- scriptions? Very few of them could make expenses. They must depend upon their advertising and jobwork.
 Yet some people are unreason- able enough to complain that there are too many advertisements in the paper, and others care so little for the welfare of the local papers as to send their job printing out of town.
 What is local newspaper. It Is board of trade, trumpet of the towns advantages, q history. It is a policeman, a chaperon, a defender of your rights and a board of health.
 It is an honest adviser if in the hands of an honest man. It warns you against frauds. It rejoices with you when you are glad and mourns with you when you need a comforter. It is the guardian angel of your moral, intellectual and physical health.
 Do you help to support your home newspaper l-Danville News.

Wasteful Production of Heat,
From Cassier's Magazine.


The use of fire, by one Of those strange
incongruities of growth. has retained
more nearly its elemental and primitive
form than any other OF the essentials to
life. existence and the Industrial activity
upon which life upon our planet is de-
pendent.
While measurement has been integrated
to the fractional part of wave length Of
light. and mathematics and physics have
reached a development Ct almost abso-
Lutte determination, yet the usage of fire,
SO necessary to human existence and m, st
materially affecting the economic life OF
society, has remained in S ate of prime
val crudity. practically unchanged since
Its inception, and the wanton W.ste of the
worlds most valuable resC urces and fun
damental wealth continues in a manner
entirely incommensurate with the eco
nomical development of our social and in
dustrial life. A realization Of this how
ever, Is being brought abb ut, and q sud-
den and abrupt awakening has come.
This is largely due to the work CT the
geological and mining surveys Of many
of the manufacturing nations, and to the
fact suddenly brought home that their
resources are limited, and that the waste
OF previous years has made inroads far
beyond expectation. 1t Is a fact that the
day must inevitably come, and NAV be
said to be almost in sight, when, at the
present rate of demand plus the expand
ing demand-curve of an increasing popu-
lation. the supply of combus-ible re-
sources will be practically exhausted.

sticks closer than brother to the
broken place in the dish.
In order to get their data for study
of the germ subject, Chemist Wiley and
his men made collection OF broken
china from the various restaurants OF
Washington. They showed no favor, but
went impartially to every place in the
city, the big hotels as we'll as the smaller
quick-lunch places, and they took china
in all conditions of cracks, from the tiny
hicks that were barely visible at nrst

have cracks along their whole surface.

as result of crusade that DR.. Wiley
had caused to be instituted against the
unhealthful conditions prevailing In many
Washington kitchens and serving rooms

loose, and under their eagle eyes 1t
gradually developed that the china was

The Breaches Bible.

One of the books which bibliona-
Mac handles reverently is the famous
Geneva Bible. better known as the
"Breeches Bible" This name is due
to the rendering of Genesis i'll {.
where Adam and Eve are said to have
"sewed fig tree leaves together and
made themselves breeches." This had
been the reading of the first English
Bible. Wycliffe's version. but later
translators had substituted the word
apron" for 'breeches." and the Gene
va Bible reverted to the original. The
fact that only one edition of the Gene
va version contained this sentence
makes the limited number more pre-
cious to the book gatherer. The title
page of this edition announces that it
was imprinted at London by the dep
uties of the queene's most excellent
majestic" i'm 1899. The first edition
appeared in 1860. and for sixty years
this was the favorite Bible with the
people. who reluctantly laid it aside
for the authorized version in 1911.
