FIRST SCORE FOR THE MAJOR
Man of Law Wasted Time In Conter'1'
platlon, but His Opponent Was
Quick 10 Act.

There lived at one time, In the fash
ionabIe quarter OF Dublin an eminent
lawyer who afterwards came to occu'
by a position on the judicial bench
He was q man OF high professional
attachments but of testy and irritable
temper His next door neighbor was
retired major, noted for the eccen'
tricity Of his habits Between the two
there was anything but friendly feel
ing and they did all in their power to
annoy and harass each other. One
night, memorable In ireland as The
night Of the great Storm" the majors
chimneys we're blown down. Crash
they went through the roof Of the law
yer's house and thence down through
floor after floor, carrying havoc in
their course. The man of law was In
no good humor as he contemplated the
destruction, and what made matters
worse was that It was the majors
chimney that had occasioned' the
wreck. His mind was actively en-
gagged In devising some process by
which he could get satisfaction from
his arch enemy, when this missiye ar
rived from the major: s vr
"Send me back my bricks immediate.
ly or I'll put the matter In the hands
OF an attorney" !.

WHEN THE STOMACH CALLS
Feeling Which Common Humanity
Knows as Hunger Is Explained
Fully by the Scientist.

The answer looks easy Any small
boy, schoolhoy or other, would say,
why. hunger is Just wanting some
thing to eat and wanting 1t bad" But
the doctors find that 1t isn't so easy.
II seems. according to an eE-cathe-
dra utterance in the Journal Of the
American Medical Association, that
emptiness of the stomach has nothing
to do with hunger 1t is not due
10 the secretion of any sort Of acid
in the stomach. nor TO congestion OF
the gastric glands. Professor Cannon,
In this article In the journal aforesaid,
attributes hunger to contractions OF
the stomach's muscular walls. In the
doctors words: Hunger Is normally
the signal that the stomach Is CON
tracted for action; the unpleasantness
OF hunger leads to eating; eating
starts gastric secretion. distends the
contracted organ, initiates the move
ments Of gastric digestion and abol'
ishes the sensation" Here's to the
abolition Of the sensation; may there
always be something with which to
start the gastric secretIon!"

MAKES NIGHT CLERK NERVOUS
Weird Stories Told by Guests In Early

tie Disconcerting.

Sometimes the night clerks job
has it's drawbacks" remarked the tall,
thin man behind the desk at the hotel.
These weird tales that guests will
tell in the still night"-he went on,
they're one thing that makes a fellow
wish there were more people around.
One night about O'Clock, guest
came up TO the desk and spent an hour
telling me earnestly about the black
cat that had been sitting on the foot
Of his bed AS he talked Z noticed the
fellow had a queer look In his eye.
"A black cats nothing but black
cat. but somehow a fellow doesn't
want to hear much about EN- in the
middle Of the night from g nervous
man with a queer look In his eye. This
man said that the cat came In when
the waiter brought his dinner up to
the room Then the cat took a chair
at the table opposite him, he said, and
tucked a napkin under its chin.

thing to eat the man added, but 1t
said It didnt-politest cat ever saw
Great line OF talk, wasn't It?
Then he started In to direct a lot

ITO be Continued
VAST WEALTH GOES TO WASTE
Annually Hundreds Of Thousands Of
Tons Of Suphuric Acid Are Car
rfed OF by Streams.

One of the most interesting OF tho
phuric acid. Coal veins contain sui
phur, most commonly in chemical con-
bination with iron. The poorer the
coal the more sulphur Is there. Such
compounds, becoming oxidized. form
sulphuric acid, great quantities OF
which In free state are continually
draining from the mines into the rivers.
This sort of thing is going on at
such rate that the amount Of sul-
phuric acid carried away by the
streams Of the coal region OF penn
sylvania in the course Of year has
been estimated by the water re-
sources branch Of the government
geological survey at $4,000 tons--a
quantity equal to more than two
thirds of the total sulphuric acid con-
sumed in twelvemonth In the United
States for industrial purposes.
Sulphuric acid has many uses In the
arts. Among other things, 1t is en-
ployed to clean iron before the latter
is galvanized: likewise In the treat
n1ent OF sheet iron for making tin
ware, and the wire for fences and
nails For these and other purpose
10000 tons of 1t are consumed annual
ly In and about the city Of Pittsbure.
Mark, then, the pity of the circum.
stances that, as determined by the
government exports, no less than 95,-
600 tons OF sulphuric acid flows in a
year past the town OF McKeesport, In
the Youghiogheny river--that ia to
say, 10000 tons more than is utilized
industrially in Pittsburg and It's VI
entity during the same period
To put the case otherwise. fully
81 100000 worth Of sulphuric acid pro-
duced by nature, Is carried away every
year by one stream In neighborhood
where the same stuff Is required for
use by thousands Of tons In factories.
Here Is problem for the industrial
chemist to solve--the obvious Difficult
ty In the way being that the solution
OF acid is so very dilute that attempts
to concentrate 1t would be likely to
prove Improbable.
Incidentally, the acid robs the
streams of all their oxygen, kills the
fishes. and attacks structures Of iron.
II literally eats up bridge piers, lock
gates, ETC., and at the present time rs
making lot of trouble in the govern
ment canals along the headwaters OF
the Ohio.

Good Work for the Schools.

Two bulletins recently sent out
by the United States commissioner
of education give two rather inter-
esting experiments made in different
parts of the country. The first was
in St. Louis. There a number OF
business and professional men
leagued themselves together to pro-
mote public school education. The
result Is thus described:
Since this organization was es-
tablished, fourteen years ago, the
public schools have been taken out
of partisan politics and placed in
charge of an independent board;
school taxes have been Increased,
supplying funds for modern, ade-
quate school buildings, and school
equipment aggregating many thou
sands Of dollars In value has been
contributed by the organization in
fee simple to the public schools.
This equipment includes almost
every kind of teaching material.
Among the articles given are works
of reference. stereopticons, folding
chairs, reflectoscopes, pianos. statu-
AIRY and pictures. One Of the pic
lures given in this way cost $3,50G,
while another was worth $4,000.
The money for these donations Is
raised from dues, from direct con-
trihutions or from the proceeds Of
concerts picnics.
This league is organized by wards.
and the dues are not heavy. One of
the great services it has rendered
has been in teaching the children
patriotism.
The other experiment was tried in
Pike county, Ala. 1t is in a farming
community, and the effort has been
to, interest the young people SO that
they would stay on the farm in
stead of going to the city. For this
purpose entertainments have been
started, including lectures, lantern
shows, monograph recitals and So
cial affairs. meetings being held
both in the afternoon and evening.
II Is plan that might be adopt
cd with advantage In almost any
farming community.

while before the front windows were

scarcely knowing whether to laugh or
swear over the situation, crossed the

half concealed behind the trees, a.
body of British troops was trampinSs

WHY THEY LEAVE THE FARM
Story Indicates That the Remunera-
tion Some AeriouItuFlsts Allow
Their Sons Is Not Adequate.

"Just the other day met stalwart
young fellow whose every appearance
would indicate he was a son of the
SOIL" says a writer in Farm and
Fireside six years ago he left the
old home At that time he had very!
little education, but by steady, indus,
trious labor he has won out, and to-
day Is promising young lawyer. He
told me that the first year he left the
farm he obtained employment in a
machine shop at what seemed to his
mind large sum OF money, s12 a
week. He worked hard for nearly
three months, when one day he re-
ceived telegram from his father,
asking him to return at once.
Having left afdelicate little mother,
he rushed home with all haste, fearing
to find some great trouble at the end
Of his journey. His father met him
at the station and calmly explained
that his hired man had left and he
could not get his hay In alone. My
voting hero not daunted in the least,
informed his father that he had given
up hts job to return home and asked
what pay he was to receive for his
work. The father promised certain
small sum. After two months hard
work the son asked for money to buy
suit Of clothes and received it% AT
the end Of the season, when the young
man wanted a final settlement he was
put off from time to time and at last
went away to the city with an empty
pocket and heartful Of resentment"
