Einas- nai1s Show Hsaith.

Our finger nails are made Of horny
material that is in some ways like the
material that makes our skin. But 1t is
more like the material that makes our
hair. It is after all different from Ell
ther Of these and is more like horn
than any other part Of our bodies. The
special cells at the base Of the nails
form the material for our nails and
therefore the health Of our finger nais
depends on these cells. Il you are not
in good bealrh or If you do not take
good care Of yourskin your finger nails
will show that they are not healthy.
If your blood is out Of order the cells
that make the finger nails VIII not DO
their work properly and then little
white spots will appear on the nails.
So you see those little white spots are
a sign Of bad health.-kansas City

What IL = Camper?

The world now Knows the answer to
the momentous question, What is
camper? The United States public
health service gives the information IN
these few simple words: Campers are
persons who. of their own rolltion or
through the enticement Of others, re-
ye-t to primeyal modes Of existence
anu ostensibly obtain enjoyment there
from. Both place and persons then IA
vor the development Of irreSuiarltles'
encourage more or less lrresponslDlllty
and lead to immediate wildness. In this
there is no harm and often much good.
However. one thing should not be for
eotten-the arrangements. Allow the
animals to break loose once more tor
the seasonal enjoyment. but by all
means have the camp sanitary. SO that
in their wildness they will do no
harm" Add to this the ability to BAL
ance dough god on the left knee. hold
a cup of coffee in the right hand and
brush q black fly of the right ear with
the left hand. and you have the com

THE FATa MoReARA.

Conditions That Must Obtain to Allow
of It's Production.
The fata morgana is q singular aerial
phenomenon akin to the mirage. It is
seen iu many parts Of the world, but
most frequently and in greatest per-
lection at the strait Of Messina, be-
tween Sicily and Italy. So many con-
ditions must coincide, however, that
even there it is OF comparatively rare
occurrence.
To allow Of its production the sun
must be at an angle Of forty-fFe de-
grees with the water, both sky and
sea must be calm and the tidal cur
rent sufficiently strong to cause the
water in the center to rise higher than
on the edges Of the strait When these
conditions are fully met the observer
on the heights Of Calabria, looking to-
ward Messina, win behold series Of
rapidly changing pictures sometSoaes

1t is supposed that the images ara

of the different layers Of air above the
sea, which magnify, repeat and distort

them is supposed to bring good fortune

lt Has Had Twsnty.seven Different
enes In It's Career.
Many cities are known by more than
one name, but it is given to few to re-
joice In. more than half dozen dis
tinctive cognomens. But the historic
Galician city Of Lemberg has been
known at one time or another by no
less than twenty-seven different appel
lations-
According to the Polish Bulletin, the
ancient Ruthenian names for ,Lwoh
were Lwow, Lwiw, Lwihrad, Lwiho-
rod, nwiw; the Germans called 1t Lem
borg, Lemberg, Lemburg. Loewenburs;
the Latin and pseudo Latin names In
clude Lebburga, Lamburga, Leontopo-
lis, Leone, Livivia, Leopolya; in the
thirteenth century it was known to the
Greeks as Lithon and L.fbada-
The paTiarchs Of Constanhnopae,
Alexandria and Jerusalem referred to
it as Leovios and Leonopolis; the Turks
call 1t in their books ILL, nbo, nbot,
Elibew, lbadir; the Armenians gave to
It the name Of nof; the Russians have
lately baptized it Lwof.
The real name Of the city, It IS as
serted, Is the Polish one Of Lwow,
which literally translated means Lion
City.

Flowers Bloom on ieeberas.

Arctic explorers often report the dis
eovery Of flowers blooming on icebergs.
The explanation Of this is as follows:
II appears that sone animals carry
on their feet a growth Of moss. which
Is deposited on the ice while it Is at
tsehed to the mainland In polar re-
gtons. In time this decays and forms
a shallow soil In which the seed Of
buttercups and dandelions often find a
lodging, borne by currents OF wind
that doubtless caught them up in some
southern cline. These take root and
bloom when the great cleaning Ice
berg floats out to sea and Is carried
pouthwe-d, where the soft winds melt
The surface and give the plants the
Eaaasszse they need.

wbv Boiled Water Freezes Easily.

Why Boiled water Freezes EaSIiS'
Water which Is hot, of course, can
not freeze until it has parted with It's
heat, but water that has been boiled
will, other things being equal, freeze
sooner than water which has not been
boiled A slight disturbance OF water
disposes it to freeze more rapidly, and
this is the cause which accelerates the
freezing Of boiled water. The water
that has been boiled has lost the air
naturally contained in it, which on e1-
posure to the atmosphere it begins
again to attract and absorb. During
this process Of absorption motion Is
necessarily produced among its part-
cles, slight certainly and impercept-
Bile, yet probably sufficient to accel-
crate its conge,ation. In unboiled wa
ter this disturbance does not exist In
deed, water when kept perfectly still
can be reduced several degrees below
the freezing point without its becoming

LONG WAR PAUSE
 WAS EXPLAINED
GERMAN CORRESPONDENT FINDS CONDITIONS ALONG ENTIRE
 FRONT SATISFACTORY.
Went Out to Investigate as Pessi- mist but When Explanations Were Made He Returned an Optimist.

Berlin, March 27.-"I nave come back from the front as a convinced optimist, even if there are some things which cannot explain. '" mrites a correspondent of the Frank frter Zeitung who has recently been making round of the German trenches in Belgium and Northern France, He was particularly i'm pressed with the work which the Ger. man authorities have accomplished in the occupied districts of both Bel gium and France. where, he avs. ev- cry conceivable provision has been made for the time when our powerful army shall break over the borders into the interior Of France" All the railways and roads, he observes, have been brought to the highest eff ciency for that objective. He con@l ues:
 The pause has been used to the utmost advantage The north Of France and Belgium have been trans. formed into German border pro vince, whose granaries, ammunition depots and bases for the provision of War supplies are oyerflowing and ready, at a sign to send thousands of tons to the front, while the hospi- tals and transports for the wounded are marvelously organized All the warlike preparations in the west have been placed on a new and eX- traordinarily strong footing.
 Tn many respects these prepara- tions surpass even our German mobili- zation. Here in the depots you feel now this preparation for war has been thought out in the most concen- trated way An unprecedented en- ergy is devoted to it. While greater and greater masses of men are being hurled against our wall outside-with only a wave now and then breaking over the dam, while our trenches are sending the storming parties home again with bloody cost, all the time our inner fortress is being move heavily armed until the signal for a new offensive can be given. Kitch- eners millions and the new French army nave never alarmed us, although we must not underestimate them. But it is one of our characteristics to look only to the front and to believe only in the existence of what We can clearly perceive.
 Before l went to the front, all ac- counts and stories of the war left me unconvineed. Even when I passed through the trenches in frolt of Rheims, where the front of the tow CTS of the Cathedral still stand out al most uninjuFed when I walked over the heights which dominate Arfas. that junction Of important railways
