After the County Commissioners.

| We don't know Of anything
that has had its crookedness
more thoroughly tested or its
narrowness more exposed than
the public road leading from the
Mayfeld bridge on the Saluda
up the Oolenoy valley to Pump
kin town, And the wonder is
it has stood the test so long. and
at the same time had crosses to
bear that are not any wider or
straighter. Several months ago
we heard about some commits
sioners being elected for the inn
provement of the character of
such roads, but they are still
strangers along the said road.
Maybe they haven't confidence
m their ability to stand the res5, S1
or maybe they have come in dis
guise in the form OF book agents
and canvassers for portrait COM
panies, ETC., and were not recog-
nized. If so, we would be glad
if they would come along and
rightly establish themselves.
We are sure if there were any
delinquent taxpayers hereabouts
we would be hearing something
of it; and as We don't, it looks
like a case of 'robbing Peter to
pay Paul.
1t does seem that the book
agents have been very persistent
in their efforts to impress the
people with their character
sketches and business esIisesa
but it may be the said commits
sioners were away from home
when they called. Ifso. we are
sure they could borrow a copy
from some neighbor. if afraid to
risk their own judgment con-
cerning the improvement of the
character of the above mention
ed road.

National Aid Against Pellagra.

Congress will be asked by the
Public Health. and Marine Hos
pital Service to appropriate fifty
thousand dollars to the suppress
sion of pellagra.
This is significant of a nation
al awakening to the menace OF
one of the most wasteful and,
thus far, battling diseases of
modern times. Though the re-
cord of pellagra runs far back
into the centuries, its presence
in this country has but recently
aroused public attention. Com
munities have suddenly realized
that it has fastened itself upon
their people and is claiming a
Z death, 18th tollof thousands.
For some years past meNcal
specialists have been studying
this malady and they have found
for its Observation-Disclosures which
are more or less successful. But
it is only within the past few
years. or, we may say, within
the past few months that the
need Of u united public cam
paign against the scourge has
been thoroughly understood.
Fortunately, however, cities
and states are at last bestirring
themselves in an effort to find
and apply the remedy. Atlanta
presents an interesting example
of this activity.
4 few months ago there was
no institution in this city for the
treatment of pellagra cases. The
only recourse for persons thus
afflicted was to lie down and
die. The local death rate from
the disease was rapidly increas-
ing. With its we'll proved ca
pacity for meeting social emer-
gencies. the Associated Chari-
ties established a free clinic for
the treatment and cure Of pella-
era. This was soon followed by
the establishment of a pellagra
sanitarium by the Baptist tab
ernacle.
What has been done here
should be done throughout the
country, particularly in the
south, for it is only by combat
inc this disease through organ
lied public agencies that ade-
Quate headway can be made.
The state as we'll as city gov
ernments should join the cam
paign and it is to be hoped that
the nation will provide means
for furthering this imperative
work.-Atlanta Journal.

THE SPEED OF NO RETURN.
Velocity a Body Must Have to Leave
Earth and Never Come Back.

Velocity Body Must Have to Leave
Earth and Never Come Back.
There are a great many odd terms in
science none of which has a title so
weird as the speed Of no return. This
means the velocity body must have
in leaving the earth in order for it
never to come back. 1t has been accu-
rateiy>worked out and is found to be
about seven miles a second. Now,
though this speed has never been OBJ
tanned by artificial means on the earth,
still it is interesting to note the theory
as regards the further actions Of the
body. It would continue outward in q
curved line until it was controlled by
balancing forces. mainly the earth.
moon and sun, in such way as to
make it have an orbit of its own. So
it would go on revolving forever just
as any other planet.
Although this speed has never been
obtained by artificial means. it is
found in nature on the earth, and its
application has great deal to do with
animal life on our planet. AS Is well
known. it is pet theory Of the scien-
lists that the earth is losing its atmos-
phere, just as the moon has already
lost hers, on account Of the wonderful
vibrational speed Of the molecules of a
gas. Hydrogen gas is known to have q
molecular velocity Of over the neces-
sary amount, and it is a startling
proof Of the theory that no free hydro
gen is found IN our atmosphere. The
theory is that this gas on being set
free rises on account of its lightness
and when it gets to the outside edge
Of our ocean Of air Is left behind on
one Of its jumps, the earth going for
ward at a great rate itself, something
like eight miles second.
AS the earth gradually lost its at.
mosphere it would become colder and.
colder on account Of its inability to-
hold the heat received from the SUM-.
and all animal and vegetable life
would cease. This has already hap
pened to the moon, its temperatures
never rising above zero, though theS
sun shines on it for two weeks at 81
time. -

speed could De obtained by a canrj
