A fve-day short course class of
about seventy farmers was to have
been given this week at Savannah,

Professor Howard says the snow is
in drifts from 4 to feet deep all

a study of radiO-activity. Not having
the thousands of dollars necessary to
purchase gram or two of real ra-
dium, he and Professor Moore began
examining the water from the Uni
versity deep wells, the Christian Col
lege wells. and finally that from the
principal mineral wells in Missouri.
Being encouraged by finding signs of
radio-activity in these waters, they
wished to broaden their field and in
vestigate other springs, particularly
the hot one in the Yellowstone Park
region. After applying to the CniveI-
sity, the State. the Carnegie lnsti
tute and varius United States depart
ments, they finally We're able to Sc

X. r.. they obtained passes to the
park: and they began their work in
July of 1906. The party consisted of
two professors and a third man. who
was interested enough to pay his own
expenses.
Doctor Schlundt explained that the
thermal activities in the park are of
three types. First, there are the
ManmOuth Hot Springs, which carry
large amount of carbonate of cal
cium and magnesium in solution. and
| from which are emitted vast quanti-
! ties of carbon diOXide gas. The issu-
| ing gases. but not the water itself.
were found to be radioactive. Then,
there are the acid waters, which con-
! tain much silicic acid; and the aka
! line waters, which deposit silicon
/ around them in beautiful shapes and
colOrs. In these waters, and especial
! ly i'm the alkaline ones, of which the
| geySerS are composed, strong evil
dences of activity of both thOrium
and radium were obtained. Owing to
what is known as the decay" of
| thOrium gas. it was necessary to
make the tests Immediately after the
! samples had been obtained.
The method of test consisted in
noting the rate of discharge of an
electroscOpe filled with the gas SAM
/ pie. or with the gas obtained by boil
! ing the sample. if it happens to be
water. The electrOscOpe was stand
ardized, so it was possible to calcu-
| late from the time it took for the
leaves to collapse the amount of ra-
dio-activity present.
Each member of the party carried
a certain part of the apparatus, they
camped at the various hot springs
and made their calculations in field
! laboratory The springs were large
and it was often necessary to rig up
apparatus with which to reach out
over thirty or forty feet of hot water
to collect samples of gas of water.
They were sometimes hindered in
their work by the guards of the park,
the tourists. and the bears, which are
Just tame enough to come to the
camp and steal the ham and bacon.
Doctor Schlundt spent his spare time
fishing-"catchingb beautiful trout, by
one. two. or two and half feet
long"
/ The lecture was illustrated by six
tv slides showing the hot springs. the
geysers, the mud pots and other
scenery of the park. The results OF

largely on the achievements of his

said. that lay in Col. Roosevelt's re
nomination. Though Tafts argu-
ments were not greatly different
from other days. there were many
incidents that brought a smile to his
face and the faces of others who
heard him. After speaking in Akron
Taft started to walk to his car when
woman with flaming yellow ban
ner marched up and intercepted him.
LAS a daughter of Ohio, she said
how do you stand on womans
Fights?"
You don't want me to commit
myself on that question just for

terrogator disappeared.
The President himself created
amusement for his hearers at Akron,

the bosses and made his usual refer
ence of Mr.. Roosevelt's relations
with them.

who had rash on its head when 1t was

solid mass, running sore. 1t was
awful, the child cried continually, We
had to hold, him and watch him Ito
keep him] from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last we
remembered Cuticura Remedies. We
got a dollar bottle Of Cutlcura Resol-
vent, box Of Cuticura Ointment, and
q bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave the
Resolvent as directed. washed the head
with the Cuticura Soap, and applied
the Cuticura Ointment. We had not
used half before the child's head was
clear and free from eczema, and 1t has
never come back again. His head was
healthy and he had beautiful head OF

very good for the hair. It makes the
hair grow and prevents falling hair"
