FROST ON PLANET MARS
. SHOWN IN PHOTOGRAPHS
Statement in Notification Is
sued From Lowell
Observatory.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz.. November 1S.-
The following statement was issued from
the Lowell observatory today. giving
supplementary information regarding the
recent announcement by Prof. Percival
Lowell that he had discovered frost on
Mars.
Frost has been seen on Mars by all
observers here for fortnight. Two hun
bred Photographic images of the planet
have been taken both with the twenty
four-inch refractory and the forty-inch
reflector, and all show it very prcml-
uently.
On Sunrise Edge.
ION November II measures and photo
graphs were made of il at the Lowell OBJ
servatory at intervals all the way from
ITO degrees to ia degrees. in all of
which it appeared on the sunrise edge
of the planet never advancing detachedly
upon the d SIX. and thus proving conclu-
s.vely that ii was something melting un-
der the sun rays.
THE idea that the polar caps OF Mars
and their attendant phenomena are due
to carbon dioxide $ an old suggestion
preached long since hy persons not sur
ticientlv acquainted with chemistry TO
recogn re its Inappicabil ty to Mars. Dr.
Lowell disproved this many years ago.
Statement in Proof.
THE proof consists In the fact that un-
der pressure Of one atmosphere or less
carbon dioxide evaporates W thout melt
ing while the blue band that borders the
polar caps of Mars as they contract
proves that they melt before evaporating.
..All the other phenomena confirm this

Atlanta Pastor Complains of
Her Tantrums and

all the women Of his church." which Of

tantrums of rage emba. .assing to him
self and his church,
In statement issued soon after the fl
ing Of his divorce petition Mr. Graham
goes into detail rega: ding his marital
troubles. He says that before their mar
riage his wife was for eleven years a
school teacher at Covington. Cordele and
Athens. Ga. and that this. he be ieves,
Is the cause for her unusual feeling to-
ward his children.
Says Wife Is a Child Halter.
My wife is a child-hater." he said
and although l have not believed in d.
vorce. now find that 1t is the only thing
possible for the SAKE Of my children"
Mr.. Graham states that they have been
married twentynine months, and In that
time he has been compelled 10 spend
one-fourth Of his entire time attempting
to calm his wife in her Jealous RACES and
restoring peace in his household His two
children-a boy of eleven and a girl of
five-are by former marriage.
Any attention that might show either
of the children brought on Jealous rage
on the part of my wife, he states. In
the morning II kissed my little girl my

times it would be days before she would

The minister states that for q year he
has been unable to take his children out
even Tor car ride on account Of his wife
and that once she bought an automobile,
but soon sold 1t because he asked her to
let the children ride occasionally on the
back seat.
Work for His Church Ruined.
His work for the church has been
ruined. Mr.. Graham asserts because his
wife has been jealous OF the women OF
his congregation. He could hardly speak
to one of them. he said. without spending
the next twenty-four hours pacifying his
Jealous wife. and often when he went TO
meet with male members OF the congre-
cation she would think he haG seen some
OF their wives and rage would follow.
Mr. Graham's accepted resigna ton was
presented TO the Georgia conference by
Pres ding Elder J. T. Dawes. 1t was ac-
compaH ed by letter from the officia

germs except as the soil or water
has been polluted by waste from
the bodies of people which contain
the germs. Most disease germs DO
not live long outside the human
body, and they exist mostly in the
bodies OF the sick, IL their houses,
and in soil or water polluted by
waste.
We therefore readily see that it
is of vital Importance that care be
taken in the disinfection Of all
articles used by the sick, of their
rooms, and of their wastes from
their bodies. All wastes should
have the germs destroyed by some
powerful d~isinfectant such as
chloride of lime or milk of lime.
The sputum should not be al
lowed to be open. Little closed
pasteboard cups are good recep-
tacles for this, Handkerchiefs or

County School Letter

IOuuty OCilOCl LeUer
The following article on "Sanita-
ton" written by Mrs.. j. S.
Schroeder, teacher of Mawhinney
school is worthy of much consider
alton:
"Out in the country west of the
river there r a great many rattle
snakes, and one forms the habit of
beng constantly on the lookout for
them. A man will scarcely ever
pass one without killing it. He
knows they are dangerous and
seeks to destroy them. We can
protect ourselves from dangers of
which we know, but we cannot
from unknown dangers.
eff the good man of the house
had known in what hour the thief
would come he would have
watched and not have suffered his
house to be broken into.
1t was when Sampson was a.
sleep that he was shorn of his
strength.
One of the paramount interests
in life is the preservation of our
health. How many a one has ex-
claimed, when alas! too iate,.tIf
| had only know | might have
avoided tbs" How many would
give their fortunes for the health
of youth.
| often wonder what a physician
thinks when a person comes to him
with some ailment that could have
been easily avoided with a little
care. Yet the one may perhaps in
his ignorance, think that he has
nothing to do with the cause.
Truly a man can not we'll be
blamed when he is ignorant. [
therefore believe that one of the
very highest duties Of the teacher
is to teach children, and others
that she can help, how to live and
care for their bodies, to give the
knowledge of danger that may be
avoided.
The first important fact in the
teaching of Sanitation is that the
body is made up of cells, and if
these cells are in health the body
is in health, and the converse is
also true.
| thot, as | studied into what a
simple thing then the question of
health resolved itself namely, The
keeping OF the cells in health.
The greatest cause of sickness is
the poisoning of the cells by the
entrance of disease germs, which
are either microscopic plants OF
animals. The plants are called
bactaria, the animal germs proto-
goa. The germs do not themselves
destroy the cells, but they manu-.
facture a poison which we call 9
toxin, that poisons and destroys
the life of the cell.
These germs do not spring ul
and grow in anything spontaneous.
ly but are the offspring of the pa.
rent germ. Their multiplication
and growth depends upon the IA.

the conditions in which the germ
is placed.
