The Effect Of Electric Treatment
Upon School Children

From Cosmos, L'Elecricien and other
sources the following data have been
secured bearing upon experiments con-
Quoted for a number of years past in
Stockholm, in accordance with sugges-
tions made by Professor Svante Arr
henius, with the object of determining
whether or not electricity affects advan-
tageously the development of the human
body. Two groups Of fifty children each
were carefully selected, so that the two
groups were, as nearly as possible, abso-
lutely equivalent from the standpoint OF
health, height, weight, etc, OF their
members. Each group received instruc-
tion in one or two rooms identical in
dimensions. and exposure. One of the
two rooms, however, was wound-walls,
ceiling and apparently, iioor-with a
coil of a great number of windings OF
insulated wire, which thus formed q
huge solenoid, and through this col
were sent alternating currents OF high
frequency The conditions within thi'
room were therefors in part similar tc
those in the core of great electromag
meta d'Arsonval apparatus on a gran'
scale The fifty pupils who constantly
occupied this room were thus immersed
in a magnetic field while at work; thu
other group, used as a Check" studie'

liar. Presumably, both pupils and mas

minutely according to age capacity 10
mental labor and state of advancement
in studies. In other words, every effor
seems to have been made to reach salts
factory conclusions as to the effect o
the treatment upon the favored fifty.
At the end OF six months, the electri
fed pupils had, on the average, grow

students only 32 millimeters Il l.

Electricity the Basis Of
Human Vitality

Professor Jacques Loeb. after 10
years research and experiment made
this statement:
"A part of the chemical energy OF
foodstuffs is transformed into elcc-
trical energy, which in turn gives
energy to the muscles and organs OF
the body. Electricity, and not heat
is the life of the body. Those dis
coveries are going to upset the theo-
ries OF medicine as administered by
the physicians of today, as it is set
tied that electricity is the basis oi
human vitality"

back, stiffness in the shoulders and legs,

SUPERVISOR II. c. HOLLIS.

Mr.. II. c. Kolls seems to be accept.
ing the honors thrust upon him by
the voters OF Crawford county with
proper appreciation. He is not the
kind of man to believe that lie was
the only party qualified for filing the
position of member OF the board of
supervisors. IL he should be consult
ed on that subject. no doubt he would
say that there are many other men
in the county capable of filing the
office with credit. but il is the Judo.
ment of a majority Of the voters of
Crawford county that he is the prop
er man to fill that position and we
are satisfied that the judgment of the
voters is not misplaced. We predict
that Crawford county will have no re-
greet that Mr.. Kolls was selected to
I'LL this position.
We do not feel that the introduction
OF republican on the board will
have anything bu n salutary inH,-
cnce and especially man Of so con
Servative judgment as Mr.. kolls.
The fact that the republicans were
able to elect two men on the ticket
this fall in ihe county proves that
the party is in Il position TO win 9th

stand together. II is useless for the
republican party to attempt TO elect

to the legislature of South Dakota at

in DenisOn for many years and won

one interested in everything that per

good man and threw his influence in

goes TO show that Mr.. Johnson is APP

A FITTING REPRESENTATIVE

j. p. klinker felt greatly flattered
at the magnificent vote he received at
the late election for member of the
legislature. 1t is a recognition OF his
fitness to creditaby discharge the
duties OF the Office
We have every assurance from long
personal acquaintance with Mr..
klinker that he will take great pride
in the effort to acquit himself as a
legislator. He has had such legal ex-
perience as will enable him to de.
termine what measures should he en-.
acted into laws and what should be
smothered and prevented from bccom.
ing laws. We have no doubt but
what he will be governed by high
sense of honor in the measures which
he supports. We think Crawford
county has never had better man
for representative than Mr.. Iilinker
and that the voters of the cousty will
be proud OF their choice after they
have had a chance to consider his
work in his new position.

3. I. sALlNeER's VICTORY.

The election of Hon. p. |. Salinger
to 4 position on the supreme bench is
entitled to more than passing notice.
When it is considered that Mr.. Sal
niger was opposed by a number OF
progressive newspapers in his own
party, it seems almost incredible that
he could have won out by the mag
niiicent vote which he received. The
truth is, he is himself entitled TO Il
great deal OF the credit for his vic
tory. He went about his work in the
campaign Il good deal as he goes about
his work in lawsuit. with the one
thought in mind OF mastering what
ever he is called upon to do. He had
Il unique method of campaigning by
which lie was able TO reach practical
~ every voter in the state. AT least,
every voter in the state knew that
Mr.. Salinger was running for supreme
judge.
His brilliant record as q lawyer CON
tributcd largely to his success. Mr..
Salinger has probably had more work
before the supreme court in the last
ten years than any other attorney in
the state and it cannot be said OF him,
after he has taken his place upon the
bench, that he has not had that ex
perience in his profession which
would qualify him to discharge The
duties OF the Office.
We predict that Mr.. Salingcr will
make for himself an enviable record
rs a member of the supreme court
We know that he has the ambition
and industry to inspire him TO make
the most of his opportunities and we
have no doubt but what he will ac.
Quit himself with credit.

AGREEMENT REACHED
]. ON. REVENUE BILL

Washington, Oct. Enlargement
on the war revenue bill was reached
by the senate and house conferees
at a sacrifice of from fifteen to twen-
ty millions in revenue proposed to be
derived At tho last moment the
house rejected the senate amend
ments increasing the tax on beer
from $1.50 to s1.75 and imposing a
tax of five cents per gallon on recti-
fed spirits. In sacrificing these
amendments, the conferees made no
substitution. This action fixed the
estimated annual revenue approx
mately at ninety millions, instead OF
one hundred and five millions. as the
senate bill contemplated. An agree
ment will be reported to the house
tomorrow and will be taken up in the
senate Immediately after the house
acts. III
