MOONS INFLUENCE ON TIDES
Survival of old-Time Superstition Which has Been Found mpossi-
 aihie 10 Eradicate.

The influence of the moon upon the weather was ill ancient times assumed in much the same way as the influence Of the moon upon the tides of the sea was assumed. There was no proper Knowledge of the facts in either case. ard it was accepted in both cases merely because the regular changes of the earths shadow on the moon were used as the great primitive time keeper, and any frequent changes in other things must happen after some one or other of those regular changes.
 The barbaric guess, Post hoo ergo propter hoo" proved. when careful study of the matter was made and NeWton's law of gravitatiCn was ap- piled to it, to be right in regard to the tides. but wrong in regard to the weather. The banking up" of the sea in moving hood which passes, as it were, lover the face of the waters" twice approximately in the "A hours is now known to be due to the "drag" or gravitational attraction eX- erted on the heavy but mobile mass of the ocean by the noon as it circles round the earth, with returning change in it's relative position to earth and sun, the phases of which occupy month.
 But it has no such action on the flimsy vapors of the air. An immense number of exact numerical details, de- bending on the weight of the moon, it's position, and movements in relation to the earth at successive moments, con- sequently of it's action in producing the tides of the sea, have been ascer tained with astounding accuracy. At the same time astronomers and me- teorologists Chose who study the at mosphere of our earth) have come to the conclusion that what we call "the weather" is not affected by the posi- tion of the moon in regard to the earth, either at any hour of the day or any part of the month (phase or quarter of the moon), or at any part Of the year.

BEAT STREET CAR COMPANIES
Standard of Height Set for Children Does Not Always Work Out
 With Exact Justice.

Gin cities where the street car com panies attempt to determine the age of a child by it's height some pretty complications ensue," said the travel ing salesman. "Forty-one inches has been established as the average height of child of five years, but the injus- tce of that rule is frequently dem- onstrated in cities with large for eign population.
 Unto the car of western city whose street railway has adopted the forty -one-inch gauge came child carrying three books. His mother re- fused to pay fare.

Scores and scores of times Pe-ru-na has come in at these critical moments and saved patients from imminent death. At least | seems so. 1 have bushels Of letters leciting such things.
 Pe-rn-na is q diffusive stimulant. It stimulates the circulation. It causes warm glow of health to per- wade the mucous membranes of the body. The mucous membranes of the stomach, a lmentary canal. kid nCys. bladder, lungs, all t.ae mucous membranes are apparently rerivified, re1uvf mated, re-enIcwed with the slcW cf health.
