MOISTURE AND HEAT.
Why a Psrson May Feel Cold In
 Room That 10 Well Heated.

It often happens in winter that per son living in a steam heated apartment feels cold even when the thermometer shows the necessary degree of warmth in the room. Of course there is req son for this and also very simple remedy. The reason is that the air in the room Is too dry-it does not contain enough moisture-and the remedy is, of course, to keep some water in the room all the time, so that it can evap- crate into the air.
 Our bodies, you see, are at all times exuding moisture in the form of per spiration. Now. this precipitation, even in winter, amounts to a great deal more than one would think, being measured in the pints. To evaporate water heat has to be used up, and, as the body is warmer than the air. the heat to evaporate this precipitation is taken from the body. Of course then the body feels cold.
 Here Is still another illustration of this fact: It has been shown by actual experiment that man can stay in an oven heated to the boiling temperature of water and not get uncomfortably hot-that is, painfully hot The heat makes him perspire, and the heat taken up by evaporation from the body keeps the body from getting hot. But sup pose that the oven already contained in its atmosphere all the water vapor that 1t could hold. Then, as none could evaporate from the body, the drops on the body would soon get near the boil ing point So in the room referred to above, if 1t contains a good bit of moisture the evaporation from the body will not be 50 fast, and consequently the body will not feel cold.-New York American.

For a confounder of prophecy, com mend us to General Villa. His rapid and steady emergence from the rep utation of being the worst of cut throats and robbers into that of a shrewd, sagacious and patriotic lead CT, as well as a military captain of remarkable ability, is one of the most extraordinary phenomena we can re. call in the history of any public fig ure. A year ago, if anybody had said that the people of this country, delug- ed and sickened with the horrors of a war engulfing the whole civiliza- ton of Europe, would be able to find bit of real comfort and solace amid the general gloom, he would have been regarded as the silliest of jok- CTS. Yet that is precisely what has occurred. Those who have not for gotten everything that happened be- fore July 31, 1914, will remember that in the most critical period of the American occupation of Vera Cruz, and of the negotiations which final ly resulted in the retirement of Hu- erta. Villa was great standby of the United States through his influ- ence on the Mexicans generally and on CarranZa in particular; and, in spite of occasional items of news pointing towards possible trouble, it seems clear that his conduct ever since has been that of a loyal citi- zen and a friend of peace and or derly government To crown all, we have today a statement of the plan he proposes for the institution of a permanent constitutional government in Mexico; and, besides being of a perfectly reasonable character throughout. it includes the provision that mo military man can be a can didate for president or vice-presi- dent. or governor of any state." This doesn't look like the Villa we all thought we knew tWelve-month back: and moreover it gives substan- tial reason for the hope that Mex ico as whole will disappoint the dark forecasts that were so general ly made without any reservation up to q short time ago.

THE PERIL OF GERMAN MILL.
 TARiSM.

A great part of the people of the world are at war with Germany her arms may triumph over them. But in the judgment of substantially the whole civilized world Germany stands condemned, and triumph of her arms will not reverse that judg ment. She can take her appeal only by regeneration and through new ideals. The Germans say they are surprised at the attitude of the Amer ican people, they had expected sym feeling they need set no bounds to their disappointment, for the Ameri- can people, some of German birth and descent alone excepted, are un- anmous in condemning Germanys action. And the belief that she is responsible for the war is scarcely less firm and universal. That belief is based upon solid grounds of evl- dence.
 Why do the American people con demn Germany? Because they con- demn and abhor militarism, because they have an inborn and invincible aversion to that form of government in which one man sets his will above the will of the people. For the Ger man people they have only friend ship, mingled with feeling of won- der that a people so enlightened have so long consented to the an achronism of imperial rule by "di- vine right" There is something more. however. The American peo- pie instinctively feel and know that the complete triumph of Germany in this great conflict involves not distant peril to themselves. Presi- dent Eliot. in his letter to The Times, published on Friday, set forth with perfect clearness a truth that has found firm lodgment in the minds of Americans:
 should Germany and Austria-Hun. gary succeed in their present under takings, the whole civilized world would be obliged to bear continu-

ously, and to an ever-increasing amount, the burdens of great arma- ments, and would live in constant fear of sudden invasion, now here, now there-a terrible fear. against which neither treaties nor profes- sions of peaceable intentions would offer the least security"
 The supremacy of German militar- ism would turn back the hands of the clock. The civilized world would thereafter be less civilized, and we could not shut our eyes to the dan ger that we, even though we be across the seas, should sooner or later be threatened. that we almost certainly would be threatened, by this great and dominant military power. To meet that danger We should be compelled to make our preparations.
 The feeling of the American peo- pie is again expressed with great point and force in the letter from Sir Edward Grey addressed to his con stituents at Berwick:
 "The progress of the war has re- vealed what a terrible, immoral thing German militarism is. It is against German militarism that we must fight. The whole of Western Europe would fall under it if Germany should be successful in this war. But if, as a result of the war, the independence and integrity Of the smaller European states can be se- cured and Western Europe liberated from the menace of German militar- ism, and the German people itself freed from that militarism-for it is not the German people, but Prussan militarism, which has driven Ger many and Europe into war---if that militarism can be overcome. then in deed there will be brighter, frecr day for Europe which will comp"n- sate us for the awful sacrifices which war entails"
 The German Foreign Office derlar- ed in the Memorandum which The Times published the other day that i've took the stand emphatically tha' no civilized nation had the right in this struggle against lack of culture (Unkultur) and criminal political morality to prevent Austria from acting to take away the just pun, ishment from Servia." The refer- ence is plain. The Foreign Office meant that England as q civilized nation had no right to take part against Germany in her struggle with "Unkultur," which means Russia Yet in this great European war Rus sia is in the very forefront of the struggle against the great enemy of modern civilization and progress, German militarism. That is truth that will be most distastefnl to Ger many. It will increase Germanys surprise and chagrin to know that the American people regard in that light the role of Russia in the con flict. But Germany has herself to blame if in the opinion of civilized

PORTLAND MAN
 BOOSTS SUS|TNA Believes That Valley Is Equal To Any Agricultural Land In State
 of Oregon.

B. c. Wood, of Portland, who has been member of the K. K. Kuney engineering party in the Ship Creek district during the past summer, was en route to his home. He was with the party who surveyed the railroad route from Ship Creek to the Little Susitna, as we'll as up to the Mata- nuska coal fields.
 MT. Wood was greatly pleased with the westward country and plans to return at an early date. He states that he has never seen finer agri- cultural land in his native state than is to be found in the Susitna valley, and believes that the district will support very large population.
 While in the Matanuska coal fields MT. Wood had an opportunity of see ing several properties which had been opened to a considerable extent and believes that the coal has no super for on the Pacific coast. He believes there will be many opportunities to make money in Alaska during the next few years and intends to ar range his affairs so that he can par ticipate in the prosperity which he is sure will come as a result of the opening of the coal lands and con- struction of the railroads.
