He LAUGHED UNTIL HE CRIED
What Happens to Human Beings
When They Give Way TO Emo
tons In an Audible Manner.

A British scientist has studied
laughter and made most appalling
list of the things that actually happen
to us every time we give way to
amusement in audible laughter. re-
marks the Detroit Free Press. On
each side of the throat is an artery
called the cartoid. At the level of
the larynx this divides; one branch.
which carries blood to the brain, is
called the Internal" the other, which
performs the duty of distributing
blood to the face. is called the Eek
ternal" These two branches are join
ed by the ophthalmic artery at about
the level OF the eyes. forming between
the eyes sort of canal.
All this in turn brings the tears OF
laughter and makes literal the excla-
nation, He laughed until he cried"
1t is this communication that is the
cause Of the close connection between
the brain and the tear glands and real
ly acts the same In grief as in laugh
ter, there being but very little differ
ence in the physical results between
joy and sorrow. In reality laughter Is
not an easy thing 1t results In a
great although involuntary effort-an
effort as great as though one were lift
ing a great weight-and in both cases
the muscles of both the throat and
stomach contract.
Still another unusual thing, accord
ing to some of the scientists, is that
tears are exactly the same as the
liquid part of the blood. This would
make it quite fair to deduct that the
action of shedding tears. whether by
laughter or crying is equivalent to a
certain loss of blood. This relieves
the congestion of the brain. Women
say they feel better after good
cry" which is really the truth and
based upon perfectly natural princi
pies, since their sorrow congested the
blood about the tear glands, and the
coming OF the tears relieved this con
gestion and brought feeling of ease
And SO it is that little thing like q
joke, a funny scene or a ludicrous
situation will cause us to go through
all these mystical changes and con
tortions in what we term laughter

BULLET TO REPEL DIRIGIBLES
German Projectile Not Only Pierees
Gas Envelope, but Also Sets
Fire to the Gas.

Tests have been made In Germany
with a special projectile which is in
tended to repel dirigibles and which
is designed not only to pierce gas
envelope. but also to set fire to the
gas. This projectile, fired from a
rife, is provided with little wings that
open in flight under the influence of
a spring, compressed while the projec-
tile is still in the rife barrel but ex-
banded as soon as the muzzle is pass
ed. An ordinary bullet leaves such a
small hole in an envelope that the gas
escapes through it but slowly. The
wings on the improved bullet tear a
hole Of appreciate size in the fabric.
What is more, they retard the bullet
sufficiently to canse a friction device
to ignite illuminate contained in the
bullet. The experiment gave eneour-
aging results.

TENDERFEET WIN
WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
HILL AND SONS, THE DAT CHAM
PioNS, ARE CockNEYs BORN
AND BRED.

City-bred In the worlds greatest
metropolis and unframed as to things
agricultural, were ]. @. Hill and his
three boys when they settled on home
steads at Lloydminster, In the Prov.
ince of Saskatchewan western Can
ada, eight years ago. Today they
are the recognized champion oat grow
ers OF the North American continent,
having won twice In succession the
silver challenge cup. valued at $1,000
at the Fifth National Corn exposition,
Columbia, s. G. The Plate. officially
known as the Colorado Oat trophy, is
emblematic OF the grand champion
ship prize for the best bushel of oats
exhibited by individual farmers or ex-
pertinent farms at these expositions.
The Hill entry won this year in the
face of the keenest competition, hun
dreds Of exhibits being sent by expe-
rienced farmers from all parts of the
United States and Canada. The oats
were grown ON land which was wild
prairie less than four years ago.
When MIR. Hill and his three sons
who probably never saw wider acre
age than the hills OF Hampstead
Heath, or the parks of London, came
to Saskatchewan eight years ago, they
had little more capital than was re-
CURED for homestead entry fees. They
filed or four homesteads, In the Lloyd
minister district, which straddles the
boundary of Alberta and Saskatche-
wan. They went to work with will,
ripping the rich brown sod with break
ing plows and put In crop, which
yielded fair returns.
They labored early and late and de-
MED themselves paltry pleasures. glad
to stand tho gaff for while In rising
to their possibilities. They talked with
successful farmers and studied crops
and conditions and profted by both.
The new life on the farm was strange
but they never lost heart, handicapped
as they were by lack of experience
and capital.

respect, compares favorably with any
residence in the city. The Hills have

said MIR. Hill. I'VE tended our crops
carefully and gradually added live
stock. realizing from the beginning
that mixed farming would pay larger
and more certain returns than straight
grain growing. We have demonstrated
that fact to our satisfaction and the
result is that many OF the farmers IL
