What it Costs to Breathe.

Paper XVI-Prof. r. S. Krantz. Asst
Phys, Inst. u. S. N. Al
Every time we berathe it costs us
something. Even a wink. slight
motion of the eyelids uses up power.
The human engine is kept running
by the fuel that is put into the stom-
ach. Every motion we make uses
up some of our fuel.
We understand exactly how much
horse power a ton of coal in the boil
er of an engine will produce. We
know just how many pounds of steam
or gallons of gasoline it takes to do
any given amount of mechanical
work. But we are curiously ignorant
about the processes OF digestion. We
do not even clearly understand how a
slice of roast beef is turLed into
muscle, fat ad nerves.
Recent experiments with the mys-
terious processes of digestion have
thrown considerable light on many of
the puzzling phenomena, and a very
interesting series of Investigations
is being conducted to find out more
about the Wear and tear of the human
organism; to ascertain how much
energy is consumed by the various
bodily functions.
Along the line of this latest study,
special attention has been given to
the temperature of the body, the
pulse rate, the waste materials
thrown off by the body thru the lungs,
perspiration and in other ways. A
special apparatus has been devised
to fasten over the nose and mouth,
and catch all the moisture which is
exhaled with each breath.
Various exercises have been tested
to show how much faster the heart
beats when a man runs upstairs, how
much faster he breathes during vari-
Gus forms of exercise, how much
more fire ely he perspires under vary
ing forms of exertion and the amount
of expended energy is carefully
measured in each case.
The average normal man dresses and
undresses at least once a day. 1t
has been found that this involves con
siderable muscular activity, and that
his body is exposed to colder environ
ment than the layer of air usually ex-
listing between the clothing and body.
A number of experiments were made
and valuable data obtained, showing
the energy. transformation during
dressing and undressing, which were
of value in calculating the total
energy consumed by a human being
during the day.
1t was decided that the normal con-
dition of man or woman might be
considered to be when that person
was awake, sitting up, but entirely
at rest in every way. This was con-
sidered persons normal condition,
and the amount of oxygen absorbed in
the lungs, amount of heat produced
in the body, the amount of carbon
dioxide exhaled in breath were all
called 100 per cent-when you are
sitting quietly in chair.

BULGARIAN GRATITUDE.
Expressed for an American Diplomat
Whose Widow Resides in An
nannIis-

Among the residents of Annapolis
for the past two years has been Mrs.
Eugene Schuyler, widow of former
American Consul General ar CJnstan-
tinopIe. Mrs. Schuyler resides on
King George street with her niece,
Mrs. Richards, the mother of mid
shipman.
The following dispatch by Frederi
Palmer to the New York Times will
interest Mrs. Schuyler's friends in
this city:
"Sofa, Nov. Administer Presi-
dent GUechoff, who is both Premier and
Minister OF Foreign Affairs and to
whose craftsmanship and initiative
as adjutant of King Ferdinand the
Balkan Alliance is largely due, along
with his letter of introduction to
army headquarters, gave me this
message to America:
80 Ia the great national crisis in
1876 Bulgaria was befriended by
America in a way which will always
| be remembered by our people. 1t
was Robert College, which has done
so much for our education, that first
raised voice for the victims of the
atr0cftfes committed by the Turks
/ during the Bulgarian insurrection of
1916. 1t was the American Consul
General at Constantinople, the late
Eugene Schuyler, who first made an
official report confirming all the ap-
palling Turkish crimes, news of which
had been communicated to the press
by professors of Robert College.
We hope that the Americans will
befriend US in the present crisis.
What we want is that Europe agree to
definitive settlement of the Balkan
question That settlement ought to
have been made at the Congress of
Berlin in 1878, when, after the Russo
Turkish war, Turkey was at the
mercy of the great European powers.
The great powers then commit
ted the mistake of leaving Turkish
misrule in several provinces of Tur-
key in Europe. That mistake must
not be repeated now. 1t is in the
interest to European peace and human
| ity as we'll that Turkish misrule
cease once for all in the Balkan Penin-
suIa. The influence of Robert College
is still shown here, many Govern
ment officials having been educated
| there. T"

The Montreal Massacre
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

TIME Montreal Massacre" the
duplicate of which does not
appear in Canadian history,
took place August I. 1889.
Just 60 years before, Champlaln
planted the seeds of which the mas
sacre was the harvest. At Montreal
the Iroquois got back at the
French for what had been done to
them near Lake ST. George.
In the midst of terrific thunder
storm between the night and morn
ing of the 9Th and 18th of August,
1889, fourteen hundred Iroquois
warriors landed behind Montreal,
beached their canoes and stole in
upon the unsuspecting French set
tiers and what followed beggars
description. For generations that
summer was to be known as "The
Year Of the Massacre"
Before the storm had ceased the
Iroquois had stationed themselves
in circles about every house out
side the walls of Montreal, and at a
given signal the ferocious braves
fell on the settlement like veritable
beasts of prey.
Neither doors nor windows We're
fastened in those days, and the peo-
pie, deep in sleep, were dragged
from their beds before they were
half awake Men. women and chill
dren were slaughtered like sheep.
BY daybreak 200 people had been
butchered. AS many more had
been taken captive. to be used as
slaves, or, worse yet, as the victims
Of the red mans torture.
As if their vengeance was insau-
able, the Iroquois crossed the river
opposite Montreal. and in plain
sight Of the fort spent several DAYS
