Gibbon tells Of Soiiman. caliph IN

Indigestion In his camp near Chaicis,
In Syria. Just as he was about to lead
an army Of Arabs against Constantine
pie. He had emptied two baskets Of
eggs and figs. which he swallowed al
ternately. and the repast was finished
with marrow and sugar. In pill
grimage to Mecca the same caliph had
eaten with IMMUNITY at a single meal
seventy pomegranates, kid. six fowls
and a huge quantity of the grapes Of
Tayef.
Such a statement would defy belief
were not others Of a similar character
we'll avouched. Louis XVI. could hard
ly boast Of an appetite as rayenous as
SoIiman's. but he would eat at a sit
ting four platefuls Of different soups, a
whole pheasant, a partridge, plate
full of salad. mutton hashed with gar
lie, two good sized slices Of ham, a
dish of pastry and finish this ample
repast with fruit and sweetmeats.-

Senator Blair Lees campaign for the
gubernatorial nomination is now in full
swing. with headquarters opened in Balti-
more and county organizations being
effected throughout the State. Unlike
his opponent, he is his own candidate,
with no one to dictate his course. frame
his platform or voice the sentiments of
some one else.
In his opening speech in Baltimore last
week Senator Lee took occasion to state
some of the planks in the platform upon
which he intends TO appeal to the Demo-
cratic voters. He declared for the budget
system in handling the finances of the
State; for the consolidation of all the
States legal business 10 the Office of the
Attorney General. thus eliminating the
counselships to the several departments
of the State government; for consolidation
of State boards where possible, and for
Substitution of a single executive officer
instead of board where possible; for
annexation by Baltimore city of such ter
ritory as will give it the entire harbor,
and for the "broadest measure" of home
rule for the city and the counties.
He stated that it had been demonstrate
ed that the city appreciated the work of
those who stand for genuine progress"
In legislation and administration, the
proof being in the increased majorities
given them; and that, on the other hand,
the defeats and decreased majorities in
the State. and in the Eastern Shore
counties especially, "seem to show that
it would not be wise for the Democratic
party to nominate candidate for Gov,
ernor who could he called Senator
Smith's candidate"

DARIUS

The neigh of q horse made Darius
King Of Persia, the six contending
powers for the throne agreeing among
themselves that the one whose horse
should neigh first should possess the
kingdom. This ancient method Of
settling disputes among politicians
could be revived with profit today.
If our partisan factions and petty pol
iticians could only settle their dis
-putes by the neigh of a horse, the
bark of a dog or the bray of a donkey,
1t would be great blessing and would
give our citizens a better opportunity
to pursue the vocations of industry
free from political strife.
Let those who pick political plums
by raising rows and who fash swords
dripping in the blood of industry un-
derstand that they cannot turn the
public forum into political arena and
by clash of personal aspirations
still the hammer and stop the plow
and that their quarrels must be settled
In the back alleys Of civilization.

Instead of the democratic voters OF
Cecil county, aud especially those of the
upper portion of the couity, allowing
their attention to be diverted from the
real issues of the campaign by the CITY
vs.. Counties" bugaboo. they will profit
by keeping in mind few points of vital
local interest
Before o. E. Weller announced himself
for the Republican gubernatorial nomina-
ton, he and the other mem ,ers Of the
State Roads Commission were repeatedly
urged to resume work on the uncompleted
road route through upper Cecil. All eff.
forts were of no avail, the various COM.
mittees and communications being turned
down fat, with the plain intent that this
initial route had virtually been abandon
ed for the PerryviIle Havre de Grace
route.
When Weller decided to get in the race
for Governor he realized he would have
a rongh road to travel in this section,
and then proceeded to smooth on tho
miles of his route to Annapolis by all
lowing that much more road to be con-
tracted for on the original route east of
Rising Sun. Work on these two miles is
supposed to pacify the voters of the upper
section of the county until after the cleo
tiou, then-G)
But suppose Weller fails of the nomi-
nation and election by the republicans,
with the hoped for help of some demo-
Gratis. what then? Does that mean the
completion of the upper road route?
Not if the same influences can prevent
it by the nomination and election of
Harrington. Can this be pulled off, as
sure as night follows day, the old railroad
bridge at Perryville will lie unloaded on
the State at an exhorbitant figure by the
Senator lSmith- Murray Vandiver Samuel
c. Rowland crowd And then the tax
payer of the county and state will help
fatten the pocket-books of few PRO
minent citizens and the upper route
through Cecil will receive no further at
tention whatever.
These facts are more pertinent to the
voters of Cecil than any City VS..

Boom Of Bio Guns.

Boom of Big Guns.
Early In April. 1912. man living at
Hambledon, near Godalming. wrote to
the Spectator. saying: "As | sat read
ing the other afternoon heard. or,
rather felt. "a long vibrating boom sew
eral times repeated thought at first
it was a motor van maneuvering be-
hind the house. but found nothing
there. Then guessed what it might
be and forthwith wrote to the chief
gunnery officer of his majesty's ship
Orion to make sure. j am therefore
able to state that the discharge Of the
Orion's guns was distinctly audible
ninety-seven statute miles from the
ship, the sound taking somewhere
about eleven minutes to travel the dis
lance"
An even more remarkable instance
of the immense distance at which gun
fire can be heard was afforded at the
time Of the French victory at Stein
bach. The booming Of the gums was
distinctly heard on the northern slopes
Of the Bernese Alps far down In
Switzerland The distance Is just
eighty miles az the crow flies, and In
this case it must be remembered that
the guns were not the 1875 naval

THE VITAL PROBLEM Or
AGRICULTURE
BY Peter Radford.

There is no escaping the market
problem and the highest development
of agriculture will not be attained
until it is solved, for market
is as necessary forN the producer
as land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational insti-
tutions have spent $1S0.000, 900 In the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
and improving seeds and plants. but
very little attention and less money
has been given to the marketing side
of agriculture.
The problem Is q monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until 1t gets within the grasp of a
gigantic organization where master
minds can concentrate the combined
experience and wisdom Of the age
upon it. 1t is a problem which the
farmers. merchants, bankers. editors
and statesmen must unite in solving.
The Farmers Union stands for all
there is in farming from the most
scientific methods Of seed selection to
the most systematic and profitable
plans OF marketing, but does not be.
lieve in promoting one to the neglect
of the other. We consider the work
of farm demonstrators valuable and
we ask that governmental and com.
mercial agencies seeking to help us,
continue to give US their assistance
and advice, but we believe that their
influence should be extended to the
marketing side OF our farm problems
also.
We cannot hope to develop manu-.
featuring by over-production of the
factory; we cannot build up mercan-
tile enterprises by the merchants load.
ing their shelves with surplus goods
and no more can we develop agricul.
ture by Cutting the market with a
surplus of products.

LABOR AND RECREATION.
All Work and No Play Produces the
Fatigue That Poisons.

All work and No Play Produces the
Fatigue That Poisons.
Men and women come In the morn-
ing to their tasks with spring Of
fresh energy within them. Little by
little during the hours OF Labor they
empty that spring. When it Is dry
they must draw from forces which
should be untouched. By some strange
chemistry which no one understands
too well these intrusions on the phys
ical forces which should be inviolate
produce In the human system a true
toxic condition fatigue poison, auto
poison the scientists call It.
II this fatigue poison passes a point
where the period OF rest following Is
not equal to the task Of throwing it or
and filling afresh the spring Of energy,
the man goes back to his ton a little
unfit; the longer he goes on the more
unfit he becomes. Slowly the poison
invades his system. The repairing
forces food, relaxation, pleasures and
sleep become less and less equal to
the task. The man becomes more and
more open to the attack of disease;
less and less able to do his work; I'M
fit to improve upon it; unable to grow.
He is an unsafe man, too, one not to be
trusted among machines in dangerous
places. The man has been poisoned
into unitness by the slow accumula-
ton Of fatigue poison which he could
not throw off.
It was not work which did this. It
was too much work. He needed the
work to keep him ct. Without it or its
equivalent, regular physical exercise,
his spring Of energy would have as
surely deteriorated as it did from over
work. The spring Of energy standing
idle would have soured within him.

ANCIENT MEDICAL SKILL.
Peru Had Clever Physicians and Sur
geons Ages Ago.

Peru Had Clever Physicians and Sur
geons Ages Ago.
Both cocaine and Quinine were first
discovered and used by the prehistoric
Inhabitants of Peru, Ecuador and BO-
nv1a. A cup made from the wood Of
the tree yielding quinine was filed
with water and allowed to stand over
night. In the morning the liquid had
become saturated with the medicinal
properties possessed by the wood and
it's bitter contents were drunk. The
Quassia cups sold in drug stores In this
country during the past century were
the early method used to administer
quinine.
The leaf from the tree giving cocaine
is chewed today by the Indians living
In the mountainous districts Of Peru,
Ecuador and Bolivia. It acts as
heart stimulant in those high attitudes
and deadens the pangs Of hunger so
frequently felt by the half starved ma
tives.
The Chumus, who lived In Peru, ac-
cording to some authorities, 25O0
years before Christ and whose domin-
ions extended into Bolivia, Ecuador
and parts of Brazil and Colombia, had

cines aeons ago are used by the physi-

Residents of Sussex county, Delaware,
will vote on the rural school consolida-
ton question on July s. The plan of
consolidation proposes to take four or
more schools in each section and merge
them into one, grading it mp to regular
high school course.
The Legislature at its recent session
granted to the counties in Delaware the
power to consolidate schools upon the
favorable vote of the residents, the con-
solidation to be made under supervision
of the State Board of Education.
The efforts of the Cecil County School
Board to improve the rural school system
by consolidation. some years ago, met
with such opposition from the patrons in
the section which would have derived
benefit by the improvement. that the
Board was compelled to abandon the
plan. The patrons could not bear to see
any chacge from the old order, no matter
what improved educational advantages
would have accrued to the children.
hence the Commissioners were compelled
to let things run in the old rut until the
patrons catch up to the changing
conditions.

Counting Pulse eeata.

TT Is strange how few people know
what their normal pulse is" said a
physician. They know the average
pulse is about seventy. and imagine
that they are well or otherwise as their
pulse approaches or departs from this
standard. II is true that an average
of all pulses would give a result of
about seventy beats. but In no other
physical popularity is there such a
wide individual variation.
Il had two students In my office at
the same time, both very strong and
remarkably healthy young men. The
normal pulse of one was forty seven
and the other ninety three. This differ
ence is unusual. few pulses falling be-
low sixty or rising above eighty In a
healthy subject, but an unusually slow
or rapid pulse is no indication what
ever of disease. as is popularity sup
posed to be the case
Most people overestimate their pulse,
as they often count It's beats when
talking about the matter. and 1t Is a
fact well known to physicians that the

Making Lenses.

There is absolutely no other human
occupation that requires the accuracy
Of observation and the delicacy Of
touch that are requisite for the max
Ing Of the finest lenses. These are the
most perfect products of human hands
1t may convey some idea of the labor
required in the making of large lens
to say that at least one years time is
required for the grinding and polishing
Of thirty inch object glass. A little
lens two inches in diameter requires
the unremitting care and attention Of
a skilled workman for two or three
days. 1t is easy. then, to see why it is
that even lenses for high class photo
graphic work are costly. A forty inch
object glass for large telescope can
not be made in much less than four
years. time, and II everything does not
go just right 1t may require much
longer than that.
