Space and Eyesioht..

When we speak of outer space, the
space between star and star, as be-
ing empty of matter, it is rather in
teresting to see exactly what we mean
We know from observation on the
planets that light, in it's passage across
space to our earth, suffers hardly any
absorption, and from this fact we can
deduce conclusions respecting the den
sity of such matter as exists in outer
space.
If the degree of rarefaction in outer
space is, for example, in the neigh
borhood of the one hundredmillionth
part of an atmosphere, the appear
ance of Jupiter, for instance, would
be as if our atmosphere had twice its
present opacity. So that such matter
as exists must be in much more
rarefied state. But after all these
terms are only comparative.
Suppose our atmosphere were al
lowed to expand up to the limits OF
the visible universe. as far as the

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inf1amed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the eustachian tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

INSTANT DEATH
IN CREVASSE
One Of the Tragedies that Seem In
separable from Antarctic
Exploration

Tragic was the fate that overlook
two of Doctor Mawson's companions
in the course of their recent explora-
tons in the Antarctic. This account Is
taken from the Geographical Journal:
"As regards the disastrous sledge jour-
ley from the main base with Lieuten.
ant MINIS and Doctor Merz, Doctor
Mawson says that his object in under
taking it was to dash as far east as
possible so as to ascertain the nature
Of the land in that direction. The
three men had the assistance of Is
dogs in dragging a load of over seven
teen hundred pounds. On December
IA, 1912, the party were in IS degrees
SO minutes south, Isl degrees 35 min
utes east, having covered a distance Of
Eli miles. The track had lain over
plateau heights and crevassed glacial
depressions, the totals of the ascents
having reached 5000 feet. All were in
the highest spirits, as prospects
seemed good for a further advance
over an unbroken plateau at safe dis
lance from the crevassed coastal down.

and Doctor Merz was leading on ski.
Doctor Mawson following with the
first dog-team, while Lieutenant Min

containing the most vital necessaries.

back soon after saw nothing but

tening back, the two travellers found a
yawning abyss, and at length dis
cerned an injured dog caught on a
ledge, but no trace of their comrade,
who must have gone down to the in
visible depths below-certainly to in
slant death. After calling for hours
without answer, they read the burial
service and started on their return,
with only one and half weeks food
for themselves and none for the six
emaciated dogs. There was saved also
a spare tent cover, for which frame
was improvised out Of pair of ski
and a theodolite's legs.

to the distance to be covered, but bad
weather was encountered and the dogs
gave out daily, until soon none was

WERNEcKE SAYS HE ACTED
LIKE PERFECT" GENTLEMAN

LIKE PERFECT" GENTLEMAN
The testimony of three bakers at
present on strike at Henrici's to the
effect that they had worked eleven
and twelve hours a day for seven
days week at wage as low as 81
up to $40 week was heard yester-
day in the injunction proceedings of
the Henrici Company against picket
ing mattresses before Judges Nc
Goorty, Baldwin and Windes.
Fred Hebele testified that he had
received $40 week, Hugo Killer that
he received 81 a week and Frank
Hartman that Henrici's paid him So
week.
In rebuttal evidence against
charges of police brutality, the city
put Officers Harold T. FOgerty and
John Wernecke on the stand.
Officer Wernecke is accused by Ora
Duree of wrenching her arm, but
Wernecke, who admits weighing over
200 pounds, was sure he had treated
Ora very considerably and that ithad
required the combined weight of him
self and Officer Wolff, who weighs
close to 200 pounds, to get Ora to
the corner. He did not see anything
amusing in the fact that two heavy
weight cops were needed to arrest
one little girl.
He was also sure that he had talk
ed to her in quite paternal fashion,
telling her to come along like good
girl like her pal did,
Wernecke said he had been given
orders by the lieutenant of the First
District police station to go over to
HenTici's, but he could not remember
the name of the lieutenant. He also
saidTthere were five men on his staff,
and that they went on Randolph
street in plain clothes.
He admitted that he had no in
structions to arrest the girls for say
ing there was strike on at Henrici's
and no warrants, but that he took a
