Early Inured to Cold.

Perhaps the most extraordinary of all methods of warding of cold is that adopted by some oi the tribes of the Canadian northwest It is a matter of discipline The boys when young are first whipped in order to make their flesh jingle, and then sent to bathe in the half frozen rivers.
 On entering their teens they are made to lie out of doors at night with. out clothing. The consequence is that those who survive are able to go naked in any weather without the slightest discomfort.

with respect to the earning capacity of
public monies.
Several years ago plan was
started to ascertain to what extent thu
public finances of the common wealth
were misused. The disclosures shocked
the state and defeated the republican
party. No bona fide effort was made
to place the state treasury balance on
a satisfactory earning basis until a
Democratic administration was in.
augurated in Columbus under the
lead of Governor Harmon and State
Treasurer Creamer when the state
balance was deposited on the com.
petitive bidding plan. During the
past five years total of $976,000 of
interest has been turned into the state
treasury. And all of this would have
gone to swell the profits of favorite
banks and private individuals, but for
the change. Out of the movement thus
inaugurated in Columbus there has
grown a movement of reform in this
direction in all the counties. The last
report of Treasurer Brennan that $4..
100000 of interest is earned annually
In the state on deposits of public
money shows how strongly the reform
has taken root.

to find in faulty environment rather;
than in bad heredity the explanation
OF the boy who goes wrong? Not that it

will be possible to rule out entirely the
idea of the born criminal" A small
proportion of delinquents unquestiona-
bly, do show almost from infancy an
irresistible and seemingly instructive
impulse to evil. but to just what ex-
tent this is actually due to inherited

IF KIDNEYS ACT

Says Backache is a sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says n well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad

BRASS ROD MONEY.
Currency That Used to Be Very PoPu-
lar With African Natives.

lar with African Natives.
The annual bullion letter. of Messrs,
Samuel Montagu & Co. of London sug-
gests that the phrase expressive of
wealth. plenty of Brass was intro
duced irto England by sailors trading
with tow-S at the mouths of the great
African rivers. though the brass rods
used by the natives are now passing
into the limbo of things obsolete.
A brass rod at MomSemb was fifteen
inches long and not quite so thick as a
slate pencil. Everything had its price
in brass rods-one egg equaled one
brass rod; fowl. ten brass rods; two
yards of cloth, twenty brass rods;
male slave, 600 brass rods, and fe-
male slave, $500 brass rods. asi
The brass for these rods was origi-
nally melted down for their brass orna-f
ments-anklets. necklaces, armlets, leg
rings. hats of spears, paddles and
handles of knives. etc. 1t was using
the brass for this purpose that first
gave it any real value to them. In
1890 the brass rods still retained their
value.
1t is quite possible that the rods
changed hands in fathom lengths. and
those who came into possession OF
these lengths each cut off n little piece
to procure little bit of brass for Moth
ing, and hence the length was gradual,
~ shortened until in 1890 it was fifteen
inches. The process of shortening con.
tinued. and in 1905 the standard length
was only eleven inches.
