SOME HARM IN MOONLIGHT
Scientists Have Been Giving the Mat
ter Attention and Now Are Out
With Explanation.

The alleged harmfulness of moon
light is at last receiving scientific at
tention. 1t seems that the light OF the
moon, being reflected, is polarized, ,
that is, the vibrations are in one plane
instead of all planes, as in light com
ing directly from its source. 1t is
also said that 1t has less germicidal
power than direct light, and that de-
cay is therefore quicker.
All this may be true, and II may ex-
plain some of the folklore as to moon.
light. We have so long believed these
tales to be the myths of primitive peo-
pies that we are not inclined to take
any suggestions in this line seriously.
They are really mistaken attempts at
the scientific explanation OF phe-
nomena noticed for the first time.
The folk-tales seem to have orig.
mated In lands OF very clear atmos.
phere, and II is extremely doubtful
whether In northern misty climates
moonlight has any ocular or nervous
effect one way or the other Still we
are often surprised at the facts elected
from still more bizarre investigations.
Surely polarized light must have in.
furious rectinal effects, and it might
be well to find out that much.

CORDIAL WELCOME FOR MULE
British Army Authorities Recognize

II would appear from the quality Of

by experts TO be as clean as polo
ponies. able to gallop, and quite big
enough for the purpose-they are
about fourteen hands two inches high.
They would outrun any OF the heavy
stamp OF horse, OF which there are
plenty left, whilst horses suitable for
cavalry purposes are scarce all over
the world. Mules. OF course, are used
by Spanish and Mexican cavalry. but
they have not hitherto been used in
the British army except for transport
and for mountain batteries. The like

The wife's relatives feel that II is

When a husbands mother decides

Certainly Not Scotch.

Guests OF the late Sir Henry Camp
bell-Bannerman were discussing the
nationality Of J. II. Taylor. the former
golf champion, writes a contributor to
Fry's Magazine. and one Of the party
asserted that the player was Scot.
Sir Henry was inclined to agree with
him.
"Wen," said one OF the visitors, "all
know about Taylor is that he's very
nice man. My club engaged him to
play an exhibition match at a fixed fee,
but It was so wet that play was impos-
sible. When he was offered the fee
he firmly refused to take II, and would
receive only his bare travelling ex.
penses."
Campbell-Bannerman turned to the
other man who had been so sure Of
Taylor's Caledonian birth and said.
I'm afraid that fact is fatal to our
contention"
