FIENDs IN HUMAN FORM

In the garret of a house in Black
Hawk, Colo, there was found few
days ago, the mummified bodies of
three babes, and knoted about the
neck of each little corpse was stout
string, showing that each babe had
been murdered by strangulation i'm a
mast horrible form.
The babes had been dead several
years. Every effort is being made to
locate the guilty parties, but we pre-
dict that they will never be identifi-
ed.
1t is to be hoped that those who
murdered these babes, whose coming
into the world was undesired, have
never had an hour of peace since
the deed was done. No limbo OF
hell is terrible enough to provide a
suitable punishment for those who
commit such crimes.-Grand Junction

DRAIN ON OUR ENVIRONMENT.

Without environment there can
be no life. Seventy per cent, at
least, Of the human body is made
Of pure water, the rest Of gases and
earths. These have all come from
environment. Through the secret
pores Of the skin two pounds of wa
ter are eNhaled daily from every
healthy adult. The supply is kept
up by environment. The environ.
ment is really an unappropriatcd
part Of ourselves. Definite proper
tons are continuously distracted
from it and added to the organism.
And so long as the organism con.
tinues to grow, act, think, speak,
work or perform any other function
demanding a supply Of energy, there
is a constant simultaneous and pro.
portionate drain upon its surround
