Measures Of Self Protection.
One of the most interesting fact>
about the human body is its power
of self preservation-its power OF
evading or overcoming the thou
sand and cne conditions which, un-
less corrected, would be injurious
or destructive.
Among the most common Of
these acts of self preservation are
the cough, the sneeze and the sigh
Every one is familiar with these
acts, yet few people ever ask them
selves the cause. and fewer still
could explain them.
One of the simplest of the body''
devices for self protection is the
cough. The cough is merely bias
of air propelled from the lungs il
such manner as to forcibly dis
lodge some foreign substance which
has been drawn into the throat, tn
windpipe or the tubes leading t.
the lungs.

An interesting feature of teleg
sapher's cramp is that certain let.

used for these letters. When {

about so common a letter as G hi;
case soon becomes hopeless. Anoth

form of inability to write fast
enough to take down a message
quickly transmitted. This is easil,
understood when it is remembered
that a receiver often has to write
continuously to code dictation, so t.

She Felt For Him.

He had sat looking absentmind-

two hours, whistling the same tune
and not on the key. The passen-

A well known actress sat behind
the young man. Finally there came
moment when the whistler paused
for breath, aud in that moment the
quick witted actress leaned over

Ownership of Land Accretion.

The title of an owner of land to any
accretions to the land was the ques-
ton presented to the supreme court
OF appeals of Virginia in Eggborn vs..
Smith, In which interesting decisions
on the point involved are cited. In the
Virginia case the plaintiffs husband
for a consideration permitted a rail-
road company to deposit rock and
earth on land owned by him during
double-tracking work, under contract
that all such material not removed be-
fore the work was completed should
remain permanently. The owner exc
cuted deed of trust OF the land with
out serving the material SO deposited,
but on the day the property was sold
under foreclosure of the trust deed
he attempted to convey the material
as personally to the complainant. The
court found that the complainant had
made no claim to the property until
i've years after its deposit, when it
was overgrown with vegetation, and
held that 1.-THE material was realty and
not personal property, and passed to
the purchaser on foreclosure of the
trust deed"

PREPARE MEAT FOR SHIPMENT
South American Frigorificos VIII Soon
Be Turning Out an Immense
Supply Of Food.

A frigorifico is a freezing plant in
South America. 1t is a plant that
freezes fat cattle or sheep or lambs
and sends them in refrigerated ships
northward to Europe. Perhaps later
they will send them to the United
States.
On the Island of TERRA del Fuego,
far south to the jumping off place,
sheep get very fat on the good grass.
Incredible as it may seem, a short
time ago fine fat sheep were boiled
down for their tallow. Now a mod
ern frigoriflco is prepared to kill them
and send them north of the equator
There is another of these newly erect
ed frigorifcos at Rio Gallegos, an.
other a little way up the coast at San
Julian and other new ones are e. at
Bahia Blanca. -"--.f
These frigorificos make possible the
directing Of a great stream of good
lamb and mature mutton northward,
and we here may expect to see it
come, sooner or later. Cattle are not
killed at these southern frigorificos,
but farther north, near Buenos Aires
and in Uruguay are great establish

CALLED LOW CLASS OF ART
Sweeping Indictment Of Music to,
Which Song "Home, Sweet Home"
Has Been Set

Though the oldest piece OF English
music in existence, Summer Is leu
men In" is quite modern in compari-
son with a score of the "Orestes" OF
Euripides, dating from the fourth CEN
fury B. c., which was exhibited at the
international exhibition OF music at
Vienna some years ago. Even more
ancient is the chant THE Blessing OF
the Priest" which was sung in the
temple Of Jerusalem before the captiv-
ity, and is still in use in the Jewish
synagogIes in Spain and Portugal.
Home, Sweet Home"-the song Of
homeless American-once moved Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson to an outburst Of
passionate protest. But it was the
music rather than the words that
reused his indignation. You will find
the passage in Across the Plains:
have no idea whether unsteady this
air Is to be considered good or bad;
but it belongs to that class Of art
which may best be described as bru-
tai assault upon the feelings. Pathos
must be relieved by dignity of treat
mert, declares an English writer If
you wallow naked in the pathetic, like
the author of Home, Sweet Home"
you make your hearers weep in an uz
manly fashion, and even yet while
they are moved they despise them.

weakness.

Putumayo Indiana,

The Indians OF the Putumayo dis
trict of Peru, whose brutal abuse by
the rubber companies has aroused
the world, are described in a recent
issue OF Folklore by Capt T. w.
Whiffen, who apparently lived among
them before they were subjected to
the white mans kindly attention. Ac-
cording to Captain Whiffen they are
pretty hard lot themselves. For
example,. they kill the second twin
at birth, and the mother always
browns q siclEIy or deformed child.
They kill their prisoners and eat
them. In fact they were still in tho
stone age when Captain Whiften
studied them, and, contrary to the
opinion Of Doctor Martin, had never
been any higher in the evolutionary
scale. Their only social function was
q sort of dance, TO which the partici-
pants and audience were summoned
by the beating Of drums 80 loud that
1t could be heard for q distance of
eight or ten miles. One of the curl.
Gus customs described by the captain
was their method of using tobacco.
Tho leaf was made into "treac1ay
decoction" and this was licked cere-
monially" by friends in the tribal
palnver, and also IN q sort OF binder
like an oath--in making a con-
tract.

What IS he?

:: The political dope disher of the
Reno Gazette would have the peo-
pie believe that the Democratic
party of Nevada is torn to frsg-
ments and that the Republican
party is solid band of patriots
marching on to victory. But the
following from the Carson News
indicates very strongly that all is
not harmony in the ranks of the
Republican pie eaters. The dope
disher for the Gazette should pick
the beams out of his own political
eyes before he searches for notes
in the eyes of his opponents.
What is Governor Oddie anyhow?
The News will probably give a
prize to the Republican who will
answer its question correctly.
SIS Governor Oddie a Progress
i've Republican, as he proclainIs
himself to be? If your do not be-
lieve him, ask him and he will tell
you all about it. Those are his
words; now, let us look into his
acts: He was one of eight Gov
errors that advocated the nominal
ton of Theodore Roosevelt, a Pro-
gressive RepU blican, as President
Of the United States. This advo-
cacy showed that Governor Oddie
was Progressive Republican. But
he appointed Judge w. A. Massey.
a stalwart stand-pat Republican,
to succeed Senator Nixon in the
United States Senate, for this act
OF. the Governor the News has no
complaint to make, it being a
splendid appointment of a staunch.
stalwart, stand-pat Republican of
the old school, and being a gentle
man who reflected credit upon Ne
vada in the Senate, and took part
in its deliberations, or clipped his
car in" rs the saying goes, or,went,
when George w. Cassidy made his
canvas for Congress, promising to
his constituents that he would dip
his oar in whether in harmony with
other dippers or not.
From some of the acts of the
Governor it would appear that he
has acted as stand-pat Republican
but it appears that he is attempt
ing by his words, to show to his
constituents that he is a Progress
i've Republican.
Under the facts and circum-
stances it appears to the News that
Governor Oddie owes it to his con-
stiuents to speak out directly to
them and tell them what he is
politically and where he is at"

Guilty of ENLIGHTENMENT
for Cashing Check for $500

Because he cashed a check for $500
with postoffice funds, Raymond A.
Allan. former postmaster at Sterling,
was fined the amount of the check
today by Judge John Rel1stab in the
local branch of the United States Dis
trict Court, after he had pleaded non
vult to a charge of embezzlement.

that only currency shall be received
by postal employees. Sterling cashed
a check for Victor Sorraich, a real
estate owner and hotelkeeper in Ster-
ling. paying Sorraich out of the funds
of the postoffice it Is alleged. This
act made him guilty of a technical
charge of embezzlement, according to
the Federal statutes covering the
matter.
Homer c. link represented the de-
PENDANT and made an eloquent plea In
his behalf. Assistant United States
Attorney Charles F. Lynch appeared
for the government.
Alland had been indicted by the

practically similar offenses. On his
consent to plead no-vult to one OF the
counts, Attorney Lynch waived action
ON the other five counts. 1t is under
stood that Allan dhad been warned
on several occasions not to cash
checks with the postal funds.
