The human body can stand far great

Strangely enough, Il can stand far hot
Ger liquids inside than out. For ex-
ample, the average tea drinker sips
tea at temperature OF about 40 de-
grees-sometimes as high as 145 de.
grees. But he cannot hold his hand in
water that is 120 degrees or his feet
ia water higher than l12 degrees. Few
persons can stand bath in water at
100 degrees.
Ia parts of Central America men live
in an average temperature of f15 de-
grees in the shade and 140 degrees in
the sun, while 151 degrees has been
registered In the Persian gulf the
thermometers on ships vary between
122 degrees and 40. A recent ex'
plorer in the Himalayas reports that
he found at a. m. in December and
at more than 10000 feet altitude
tempereteure of 131 degrees.

BIG PROGRAM TONIGHT.
A The Lyric Thea.re Good Pietute,.

Reliance, Peg of Polly" A really
American romance is Peg of the Polly.
While many a shadowy Captain s
daughter" has figured in song and
story of high seas, Peg enjoys the
homely distinction of being the very
humanity convincing heroine of canal
boat on the Ohio.
She is the pioneer type of American
girl, in love with her genuineness and
big heartedness in the person of bill,
her fathers right AID man on the canal
boat. The inevitable note of cross pur-
poses in the American family is sound
ed in the role of Pegs mother. In her
contempt for plain Bill and her impor-
tation of q fashionable barber from the
city 20 a higher station in life the in
genuous Peg, she affords a delicious
satire on the social climber type of
American mother. Peg and her father
are of one mind about the barber.
The girl doesn't take his fattering at
tentions any more than the Captain re-
ceives his facetious offer to shave his
whiskers free of charge. 1t is this
tonsorial faux pas on the part of the
barber that precipitates the dramatic
climax of the piece and the chain of
misadventures that follow fast on one
another. The barber's election into
the canal at the hands of the outraged
captain, and his revenge, concludes
with putting Bill and the Captain, dee-
ing from justice, in the same boat-the
Polly Pop, of course. They escape,
with the help of the Captains wife, in
the canal boat over the.state boundary.
The distinctive charm of the play lies
in its thoroughly American flavor, the
clear cut types of Peg, the Captain and
Bill, the picturesque novelty of the
canal boat setting and the opportunity
for brisk transference of action be-
tween solid land and numbering craft.
Psychologically it is piquantly true to
life, and romantically it is sound, as
the girl gets the man she had her
heart on from the first.
Peg of the Polly p" should be i'm
mensely popular with all who relish a
succession of hearty laughs with hap
py blending of whole-souled sentiment
aud romance.

'HOOT MON"
There's a Great Scotch Singing Act at
The Colonial Tonight.

One Of the best singing acts that
has played here this season was thor
oughIy enjoyed by large and enthu-
siastic audience last night. Lovers
OF good high-class singing and the old
time songs-songs that reach the
hsart and quicken your pulse, have a
treat in Startling anj Cnapman's
offering.
Both are natives Of good old
Scotland and hail from GLASGOW.
They appear in the full Highland
one in whose veins there chases a
drop Of blood from ths "land O.
lakes, will beat a little faster as
he looks at the stalwart laddie and
his bonnie lassie dressed in the
handsomest costumes that ever
garbed human being and singing
like the larks that fly DER the
Scotch meadows. Miss Stirling has
a beautiful soprano voice OF great
range, yet sweet and very express
sive.
No doubt many of the audience last
night recognized the other act as it
played at the Maryland, tin Bslti-
more week before last. They are
worthy cf a place On any bill. They
have about the usual line of singing
and talking and close the act with a
burlesqued Indian number in costume.
The male half of the act received
many good laughs on his appearance.
He is funny. He is ia the latest

One Fifth Should be in Forests.

To properly regulate stream flow
and to protect the soil from washing,
not lees than from one-fifth to one
third of the total area of the country
should be in forest. This is the
recommendation made by the fores-
try committee at the fifth national
conservation congress.
Forests must be protected. the
committee adds, not so much in local
tiles which already suffer from lack
of moisture as in regions which lie
in the path of prevailing winds and
are still abundantly supplied both
with ground water and precipitation.
In the Atlantic plain, therefore, and
in the southern Appalachians, the
gateways for the prevailing winds
from the Gulf of Mexico and thu At
lantic ocean, forests must be espec-
tally conservs ed if the humidity of the
great central basin of the country,
the granary of the continent, is to
be maintained.
Where the clearing of the forest
in the Atlantic and Gulf coast states
is necessity, it should be done only
under the condition that the cleared
land is 90 be devoted to intense culti-
walton, as, after forests, crops con-
tribute most to the moisture OF the
air. Forests themselves, according
to the scientists, evaporste into the
air several times more moisture than
is given off by water surtces of equal
area and these southeastern forests
act as a moisture reservoir for the
water which falls upon them and is,
in turn, taken up and passed on again.
BY safeguarding the humidity in
the regions which lie in the path OF
the prevailing winds the farm land:
further inland ought to get more
rain. Cleared land, which become:
waste or poor pasture, or grows uI
TO weak vegetation. means so much
evaporation lost to the passing all
currents. In dry regions rows OF
trees or windbreaks surrounding
fields and orchards, by preventing
the drifting of the snow and in
creasing the activity of the wind
will be more likely to act as con
servors of moisture in the soil thar
solid bodies of timber.

BACKYARD Of solid Roek.

The New South Wales government
dockyard on Cockatoo island in sgd
ney harbor is hewn out of solid rock.
Historically, Cockatoo island is Of
much interest, as it was the site OF 4
large prison in the days when British
convicts we're deported to Australia.
The present offices on the island are
in the old prison buildings, the stone
walls, barred windows and iron-doored
cells being stiil In evidence. The for
nation of the island was originally
quite unsuitable for dockyard, as
the solid rock rose sheer from the
water to a height of so to 20 feet.
by using convict labor, however, tie
rock was gradually cut back, first to
permit the building Of craving docks
and later to make room for building
slips and shops near the water level
The work has been continued until
at present two-thirds Of the total area
Of 80 acres has been brought to a
practically uniform level Of about Is
feet above high tide

Dogs ARRIVING
FOR The SHOW
ALREADY THE BARK OF THE
ARIsTocRATIc CANINE is
MISUNDERSTANDING IN READ.
MESS FOR TUESDAY, THE OPEN.
ING DAY OF KENNEL SHOW.

Already the sound of the dogs is
heard in the city, for one of the big
events of the mex week will be the
state kennel show, which will take
place in the Wheelock & Wheelock
garage on Northern Pacific avenue, a
short distance east Of Broadway. The
garage has been especially fitted up
for this show and it is expected that
there will be several hundred of the
most aristocratic CANNES in the entire
northwest present, waiting to be ad-
mired and petted and judged.
President Cowie and Secretary Por-
rift of the Fargo Kennel club, and as
s%istants, have done wonders in the
work of preparing for the show and
they that everything is in
readiness for the opening day which
will be Tuesday. The beautiful cups
that have been donated and bought by
the club number over fifty and they are
on exhibition in the Benton jewelry
store window and have been greatly
admired. This show is worthy of pat
ronage. for it will give the spectators
some idea of the really fine class of
dogs that are raised and maintained in
the northwest.
