WORLDS DEBT TO VEGETABLE
Possibly Sun Worship Had Its Origin
in knowledge of the Fact Of
the Dependence.

Vegetable life may worry along
without animals, but animal life can't
continue without vegetables. There
fore, says an English chemist, man
owes a great debt of gratitude to the
vegetable. He should do his best to
foster it. It is not intimated whe her
this is an argument in favor Of the
theories advanced by the vegetarian,
but it is considered ample proof man
would not be here only for the hum
ole vegetable kingdom.
But vegetables, like animate life.
are dependent upon sunlight for their
existence. The vegetable, however,
Is both the direct and the indirect
sustenance of animal being. Animal
life Of certain species exists solely, or
almost so, on the flesh of other anil
mails. But that latter food eventually
is dependent upon the vegetable.
Time would eradicate animate life
should tnanimate cease to exist. The
relations between plant and animal
form a beautiful dispensation. Man
owes to the vegetable more than he
does to lower animal life.
"Thus," concludes this chemist,
isn't it possible the sun worshipers
perhaps had a greater realization OF
the value of Old Sol than we OF the
present century,"

Livinastone's Resourcefuiness.

David Livingstone, explorer and mis-
sionary, was a man of varied accom-
plishments Besides getting himself
taught on board ship, and later by
Sir Thomas Maclear, to take with
great accuracy astronomical observa-
tions for fixing latitude and longitude.
besides acquainting himself with bot
any and geology. with patristic literac
ture and Egyptology, Livingstone was
an excellent mechanic, steersman
and a mariner His resourcefulness
was at all times remarkable. When
he was hard up for fuel on his first
steamer journey up the River Shire
he landed in the elephant marsh. Here
no trees existed and no fuel was OBJ
tainable, but his men found many
bones of slaughtered elephants, Lv-
ingstone at once took the bones on
board, burned them in the furnaces OF
the Ma-robert, and SO continued his
journey.

LIGHT THAT PRODUCES SCUM
statement Sounoe Incredible, but *
perr4ent VIII! Speedily Demon
strate Il TO Be a Fact.

1t seems incredible that a beam OF
light sould be made to produce sound
but such a thing can be done. a ray
of sunlight is thrown through lens
on a glass vessel containing lampblack,
colored silk or worsted, or any like
substance. A disk having Sits or open
lngs cut in it is made to revolve swift
ly in this beam of light, so as to cut
it up" thus causing alternate flashes
of light and shadow. When one places
his ear to the glass vessel he hears
strange sounds SO long as the flashing
beam falls upon the vessel,
A still more extraordinary effect is
produced when the beam of sunlight is
made to pass through prism, so as to
produce what Is called the solar spec
trum. The disk Ia turned and the col
ored light of the rainbow is made to
break through it. Now, IL the ear be
placed to the vessel containing the silk
or other material, as the colored lights
of the spectrum fall upon it, sounds
will be given by the different parts of
the spectrum and there will be silence
in other parts.
For example, if the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light flashes
upon it, loud sounds will be heard
when the red and the blue parts of the
rainbow fall upon the vessel. Other
colors produce no sounds at all.
Green silk gives out sound best in
red light. Every kind Of material gives
more or less sound in different colors
and no sound at all in others.-Har

WANT SALOONS
 AT JACkSONPORT
Petitions In Circulation Are Said to Contain Names of Three Fourths of White
 Inhabitants.

That Newport will be dry in 1914 under the recent prohibi- tion act is generally accepted, but whether Jacksonport will be wet or dry seems not half so certain. The advocates of li- cense in that town headed by their mayor D. D. Burkett and members of the council, began an active campaign Monday in the circulation of petitions for license.
 These petitioners employed C.. L. Grant of Little Rock to draw up the forms and they were de- livered in person Monday. The mayor and Souncil state that our-ffths of the white inhabi- tants of the town will sign the petitions, which are in charge of D. D. Burkett, E. s. Dyke, John Anderson and Will Verdell.
 The number of white inhabi- tants of Jacksonport is said to run between 150 and 200 and the council is said to be working on the proposition with the pros pect of two saloons. They claim that the town will offer as good police protection as Newport has in the past.
 While Jacksonport voted wet in the last election, the county judge has never granted license in any of the small towns and the court has discretionary pow CTS in granting license to sell li- quor.

 Little Rock, Nov. 25.- State Superintendent George B. Cook has been advised by F. NJ.

 This tragedy in which three 'estimable young ladies and one of the leading educators of the state were drowned in the Illi- nois river, is still fresh in the minds of the public. For some time Superintendent Cook has been personally active in having the Carnegie Commission take up the matter of giving recogni- tion for the heroism of Prof. Crawford and Miss Van Land ingham. It is the unanimous O. pinion of those with whom this matter has been discussed that this tragic occurrence should be reviewed by the Hero Commis- sion.

Probe Lynch Killing

: Clarendon, Nov. 24.-In few days Mrs. Lillie Lynch and her son, Robert SpiVey, of Sau'>- burg, Monroe county, will know l whether they will have to stand trial for the killing of Robert Lynch, wealthy planter, hus- band of Mrs. Lynch and stepfa- ther of young Spivey.
 Mrs. Lynch and her son were bound over to the Grand Jury at- ter a preliminary examination at Brinkley last August in which sensational testimony was intro duced. The Grand Jury which will investigate the case was empaneled here today at the op- ening of the Monroe county cir cult court.
 In his charge to the jury, Judge Eugene LankfOrd made no special reference to the Spl- vey case. He impressed upon the jurors the necessity of their 1 keeping the oath they had talk en. He told them that they are officers of the court and that it l is their duty to see that Willful viOlatOrs of the law are brought into court to answer for their crimes.
 He advised the members of the jury to hold night sessions in order that the business of the court may be hastened as rapid ly as possible.
 Judge Lankford laid special emphasis upon his admonition to the jurors to investigate "boot- logging" This crime, he sad, had cost the county more money than any other sort.
 There is Q heavy docket, both civil and criminal, before the court, and it probably will con- tinue in session for two weeks. It will be impossible for the court to continue longer because of the fact that court must con- vene at Stuttgart two weeks hence. This in all likelihood will prevent the trying of Mrs. Lynch and Spivey at this term of court, even should they be in- dicted.
