oped by the rotation OF the earth
on its axis is equivalent to a con-

power per second. II you multiplv
or divide that number by a billion
it will not make much difference as
far as the power Of the mind to

Centrifugal Force of the Earth.
Did you know that the centrifu.

Canada! A man who weighed 1911
pounds at the North Pole would
weigh only 100 pounds at the equa-
tor, the difference being produced
by the throw Of the spinning
earth. If the speed Of the rotation
were increased about seventeen
times, bodies at the equator would
have no weight at all, for the cen
trifugaI force would balance gray
ity.
Now. what have we done to util-
ize this stupendous store Of me
chanical energy in the earth? II
we lived OUTSIDE the earth then.
by putting a belt around it. or con
meeting cogs to 1t, we could employ
it's power. But we live UPON It.
and hitherto have been as helpless
to utilize its force as would be fly

ence Of the nywheel Of an engine.
That this may not always be SO
ts, perhaps, indicated by something
else that our brain power HAS en-
abled US to do. Living on the earth
we have, by observation and calcu-
lStion. found out that 1t DOES turn
on its axis. although we can moi
feel it turning We have found on
that it has other motions also.
Earth Flies With the Sun.
It goes round the sun and it flies
with the sun through space, in q
tremendous Journey among the
stars. the speed Of which we have
ascertained. We know when 1t is
slowing up and when it is gOing
faster, and we know the reason foI
these changes. We have discov-
cred and disentangled these thing
because we have brains and MIND
POWER. But the human brain is
only in its infancy, and since We
are aware Of that, we have good
reason to hope that in the future
we shall not merely know that the
earth is full of power, but shall
make that power, in some way,
: serve our uses.

LIE Is q constant search for
more power and progress
depends upon the amount of
new power that is found.
Since man is still mere baby as
far as the development of his men
tai capacity is concerned, the me-
chahical power that he has man
aged to get hold of is so insignifi-
cant that his greatest engines are
only pitiful toys. He has discov-
cred one substance upon the earth
that ne can utilize, very wastefully,
to obtain power, and, like a child
that has found a dish OF candy, he
is devouring it as fast as he can,
blissfully unconscious that there is
no more candy, and that he will
need something else when he grows
up.
1t may be true that man is
watched over by some parental IN
telIigence which supplies his needs
as they are developed but he would
be wiser if he assumed that he will
have to depend upon his own intel
ligence and that the gods will help
him only if he helps himself
Look at the situation! We boast
of our progress, but what are we
doing? WE ARE BURNING COAL,
that is about all! We have found
out that we can turn heat into mo-
chanical energy, and since there is
not much else left to burn besides
coal, we burn that, and from It, at
the expense of frightful waste, we
develop steam and electricity, and
with them we make our engines go.
Mechanical Energy of Nature.
We know perfectly well that ma
ture is full Of mechanical energy all
ready made, but we are content to
take a little power from the water
falls, and still less from the winds.
and trifie from the tides. and al
most nothing from the free sun
shine, and even when we utilize
these sources Of power we still be-
have like children, for we take only
what ts put into our laps and thrust
under our noses.
If man WILLS TO DO TT he can
have power practically unlimited.
But he must use his brains to get it.
Every breath of air that a man
takes into his lungs contains, locked
up in its atoms, enough energy to
drive all the workshops in the
world" Just sit down and think
over that sentence. Ponder on #,
II you can think Of any possible
way TO get at that energy, try it, or
ask some one else to try. Study
science and see what investigators
have already done in the effort to
unlock this energy Of the atoms and
turn 1t to useful account Expert
ment yourself if you have the OPP
portunity. If you succeed you will
be the greatest man in the worlds
history and SOME TIME SOME
ONE IS GOING TO SUCCEED.
Have you ever reflected upon the
fact that we are living on a tre-
mendous fiywheel which is posi-

Gossip and Gossipers

n n Indiana woman, with a be
~ draggled past, was going to
be married to a nice young
man. She heard that some of the
episodes Of her unsavory life had
been discussed by a neighbor wom-
an, and so she went to this other
woman's house and shot her down
dead before her little children's
eyes.
The murderess has been SEN
fenced to prison for life, and from
her cell she exclaims: "Oh, what a
terrible thing Is gossip! Let this
be warning to all women TO re
frain from talking about other
women who have things In their
lives that they are trying to forget,
and have other people forget"
DID you ever hear anything to
equal the nerve OF that? It seems
TO me that the shoe is on the other
foot. and that the lesson in the case
is not against gossip, but against
doing the things that give people
the right to gossip about YOU
The men and women who con-
duct themselves properly, and who
live deceutIy, and honestly. and
clearly, never have cause 70 COM
plain about gossip. They never
lose any sleep fearing what their
friends and acquaintance are say

1t is only people who have some
thing shameful 10 hide who worry
about the gossipng prochvities of
their neighbors. They are hard
and bitter about the old cats, Of

Yet when you come to think of
it. what right have we to expect
that our neighbors will be more
discreet with their tongues than
we are in our conduct. or that our
friends will enter into conspiracy
Of silence to protect us from the
results of our evil deeds@

At DOUGLAS
One Case of Infantile Par

Reports TO the effect that there IS
one case of infantile paralysis in
Douglas. which were prevalent in
Bisbee Saturday. are confirmed by
the Douglas Dispatch of Sunday morn
ing The. patient is the child of F. B.
King. superintendent OF the western
division OF the III Paso and Southwest
ern. The case has been officially
diagnosed by Douglas health author
tiles. who have advised the county
health officer here OF the existence of
the disease there. The sourc of the
infection is not known, as the child
has not been on the coast
The following regarding the case
is printed by the Douglas paper:
AT a meeting of the city board Of
health, held last evening in the offices
OF Dr. F. W. Randall, city health Off
Ger, II was decided that precaution.
airy measures against infantile par.
alysis should be carried further than
they have previously been. For this
reason. all children under fifteen
years of age will be refused admit.

under fifteen years will be allowed to

The board assembled with Mayor

emit DR.. Randall explained to the

paralysis had been discovered in the
city at the home OF F. b. King. 949

so far as they concern the young
folk of Bisoee, although II is TO be
hoped that fiy-swatting has become
SO much of a habit that ii cannot be

that hour they must be turned into

uptil 6 o'clock. The final count will
be made tomorrow morning. and
Thursday morning the scores of all
competitors who totalled more than
$4,000 win be published in The Re
view
School days bring relief TO the fly.
He is not beset by SO many dangers
as have surrounded him for the past
four weeks. He has been smitten
by the million. and. the ranks OF his
army have been decimated, but for
the remaining days of the autumn he
will have some relief from his cares,
and at that he is not safe, for many
are the swatters, many are the traps
that will remain set for him. People
of Bisbee are now somewhat educated
as to the danger that attaches TO the
one" harmless" house-fiy, now more
commonly known as the typhoid fly.
The period OF danger is nearing an
end. for with autumn his numbers
, naturally decrease. and ere winter is
over he will be a rarity.
There is only one cause for regret
that the health committee OF the
i Commercial club has to voice, and
that is that the campaign was not
splendid but had the campaign been
splendid b ut had the campaign been
conducted a month earlier. II would
have been better vet. Then he would
not have obtained the prominence
| as a nest that he had this year be
| fore the swatting began. This is a
| lesson that will be remembered an
other year, when an early start will
he made. and when, If NECESSARY,
there will be two campaigns. AS II
is. Pisbee has taken a posltion ut the
/ front. in advance of all other cities
of the southwest in war upon the
fy and typhoid fever germs, and the
work of this year has shown splendid
results in the health statistics of the
| district.
So this evening, the last returns
viii be made. and II only remains
10 tabulate the list of the faithful
workers and the results which they
have obtained.
