Some forty years ago Louis
ana planter died, leaving his son
an estate upon which there was a
mortgage of forty thousand dollars.
There was flaw in the mortgage
by which the young man just out
of his teens, could legally avoid
paying it. But he sturdily refused
to take advantage of such q techni-
cality, and for years labored on, not
discouraged by successive bad
crops, until he had paid the last
dollar of the debt, and saved the
estate. Last month that young
man became Chief Justice of the
United States.

Adapted for HIrh A.tItuds.

It is a familiar fact that living at high altitude puts a strain on the heart, which has more work to do. In this connection, says Knowledge, it is interesting to notice Strohl's recent comparison of ptarmigan from high attitudes and willow grouse from the plains. He found that in ptarmi- gan, even in the young bird, the right ventricle of the heart is very dis tinctly stronger than in the willow grouse, a specific adaptation to the diff ference of habitat.

QUEER DISEASE
 IS IN CALIFORNIA
MANY HERE AFFLICTED WITH ODD AlLMENT, SAYS PROF.
 MUNYON
Grewsome Creatures Very Common in
 This State, Finds Expert

Many California people are afflicted
 with a queer disease, according to
 statement yesterday by Professor James M Munyon. He made the fol- lowing remarkable and rather grew some statement: Many persons who come to my headquarters, the Owl Drug Co., at San Francisco, think they are suffering from simple stomach trouble, when in reality they are the victims of an entirely different dis ease-that of tape worm. These tape
 worms are huge internal parasites which locate in the upper bowel and consume a large percentage of the nutriment in undigested food. They sometimes grow to a length of forty to sixty feet. One may have a tape worm for years and never know the cause of his or her chronic i'll health.
 Persons who are suffering from one of these creatures become nerv ous, weak and irritable, and tire at the least exertion. The tape worms rob one of ambition and vitality and strength, but they are rarely fatal.
 "The victim of this disease is apt to believe that he is suffering from chronic stomach trouble, and doctors for years without relief. This is not the fault of the physicians he con suits, for there is no absolute diag- nosis that will tell positively that one is not a victim of tape worm.
 "The most common symptom of this trouble is an abnormal appetite. At times the person is ravenously hungry and cannot get enough to eat. At other times the very sight of food is loathsome. There is a gnawing, faint sensation at the pit of the stomach, and the victim has headaches, fits of dizziness and nausea. He cannot sleep at night and often thinks he is suffering from nervous prostration.
 q have a treatment which has had wonderful success in eliminating these great creatures from the system. In the course of it's regular action in aiding digestion, and ridding the blood, kidneys and liver of impurities it has proven fatal to these great worms. If one has a tapeworm, this treat ment will, in nine cases out of ten, stupefy and pass it away, but if not, the treatment will rebuild the run down person, who is probably suffer- ing from stomach trouble and a gen. eral anaemic condition. My doctors report marvellous success here with this treatment. Fully a dozen per sons have passed these worms, but they are naturally reticent about dis cussing them, and of course we can not violate their confidence by giving their names to the public"

THINNING TO COLOR APPLES
Necessity of Producing Better Grade of Fruit Than Formerly Makes
 This Essential.
CRy w. J. qREEN. ohlol

The coloring of apples is influenced greatly by thinning. It is well known that when two pickings are made that half colored fruits left at the first picking will. within two or three weeks, increase in size and put on more color, rivaling the specimens first removed. Earlier thinning ac- complishes this result in a still more marked manner.
 There is also a greater number of windfalls from unthinned than from thinned tree, partly due to decrease of defective fruits by thinning. also to lessened drain upon the vitality of the tree.
 Owing to the necessity of produc- ing a better grade of fruit than for merly, and of more careful packing. thinning the fruit cannot be neglect ed.
 Thinning is one of the measures to be taken to induce annual crops. but a one 1t cannot produce the desired result, nor can varieties in which the habit of fruiting in alternate years is strongly fixed be much changed in this way.

WHITE MARKINGS OF HORSES
Most Common Among chestnuts and More Commonly Seen on Hind
 Legs-Bays Next In Rank.

Among horses. irrespective of the question of breed. white is much more commonly seen on the hind legs. or on one of them. than on the forelegs. And when the latter are white 1t Is prac- tically always true that you will find white on the hind legs. too. When markings are present both behind and in front those on the hind limbs are usually the more extensive.
 It is also found that there is a very definite connection between the coat color of horses and the frequency with which white markings occur. says the Horse World. Thus the latter are by far the most commonly associated with the chestnut color. And not only are they the most prevalent in chest nut horses, but it is also, of course. a Well-known fact that the markings are apt to be more extended in nature in the case of this color than in that ot any other.
 Chestnut, therefore. apparently pos sesses, so to speak. a special affinity for these markings. Bay ranks next as regards the degree of frequency with which white markings appear in horses of this color, although it comes good way behind chestnut in this re- spect- Then follows brown, while they are met with less frequently among black and roan colored horses.
 The theory is sometimes put for ward that in mating sire and dam which both have conspicuous white markings on their legs the tendency is for these to assume more exten- sive character in the progeny than is the case in either of the parents. This theory cannot, however. be substan tiated
 These markings are of a highly he reditary nature, and must prove to be transmitted to the offspring; prob ably even more so in the case of the sire than in that of the dam Conclu- sive scientific support of this latter theory is not available, but it is a commonly observed phenomenon. On the other hand. there are some cases in which stallions with white mark ings habitually sire whole coIored foals.

The result of fifty-six different tests at seventeen different agricultural ex- pertinent stations show an average in- crease of AZ per cent. resulting from shallow cultivation as compared with deep cultivation. In moist years cul- tivation is of less importance than in dry years.

GREAT NEED IN ADVERTISING
Simplicity In Words, Statements ana
Description Of First Importance in
Publicity Work.

Nathan G. Fowler. the famous Bos-
ton advertising expert. believes that
simplicity in words. sentences, state.
ments and description is the great
need in advertising. He says:
Advertising, like everything else
has number Of great needs. and
nobody knows it's greatest need. It is
still In the back yard of progress. and
getting nearer to the center of the
house every day.
II there Is a greater need 1t is,
think. that OF plain and simple sim.
plicity. the use Of common words. un.
derstandable sentences, and state
ments and descriptions, which not only
appeal to the reader. but give him a
tair idea OF what the advertiser is
talking about
advertising Is commodity, al
though 1t does not appear to be SC
considered by more than half of the
advertisers. who fill their advertising
space with erratic sentences and
meaningless illustrations.
Il have always labored under the
Impression that the object of advertis
Ing was, prominently. to sell goods
either directly or indirectly. If this
be the case, then Il would appear OBJ
vious that good advertising is simply

liar to that used by a successful sales.
man.
Think OF the salesman who, when
trying to sell breakfast food to a
retailer, using such an expression as

lose his job. Yet. this sentence ap-
pears In nearly every magazine.
Imagine, If you can, a shipping
clerk. who addresses packages with
