The ROOter.

Why is a rOoter, a roOter? We all
know what a rooter is, but where
fore?
At baseball game he is more than
a spectator. He is a fan plus. He
shouts, he yells. he applauds, he
praises. he is the partisan princeps.
Yes, a rooter nowadays is one who
roots for some team, who boasts of
sympathetic action. who roasts the
opponents and is blind in every eye
except the one with which he views
his own favorite.
But a rooter wasn't always so. No,
indeed. Eighty years ago, when
Davy Crockett was. telling himself.
he wrote: II started mighty poor
and have been roofing along every
since"
: He didn't mean that he had been
shouting for Texas league team,
but that he had followed an older
Root. hog. or die!" And
Davy had rooted, In other words,
he had striven hard. as the porker
must strive when he either must root
for a meal or dies. The old back
woods philosopher meant also that
he 'hadsproEressed': succeeded. made
good.
Quite q different thing. Ell. from

Poisons In Warfare.

There are many substances which
may be employed to poison OF asphyx-
late an cEe14...', cltlcr by tempering the
wind or by use in projectiles Hydro
cyanic acid, known as prussic acid, is
so poisonous that a mere breath of it
means instant death. Sulphuric an
hydride when brought in contact with
air combines rapidly with moisture alb
sorbed from the air, producing sui
phuric acid. Thrown in a bomb with
just explosive charge enough to dis
rupt the bomb and scatter the sui
phuric anhydride, the air for large
space about the explosion would be at
once converted into a dense fog of sui
phuric acid. Liquid ammonia similar
ly employed would instantly SO fill the
atmosphere with ammonia as to stran-
gle all persons in the immediate vicin-
ity.-Brooklyn Eagle.

WaIpoIe, Knight of Garter.

When Sir Robert Walpole was in
stalled knight Of the garter in 1926 he
was the only cOmmOner, with one eX-
ception, to whom the honor had been
given since the reign of James |. The
honor apparently was regarded as so
great that Walpole had to apologize for
his audacity, which he did in this fash
ion: lis ambition imputed to me? Why,
then, do / still continue a commOner-
1 who refuse a white staff and peer
age? 1 had, indeed, like to have for
gotten the little ornament about my
shoulders which gentlemen have so
repeatedly mentioned in terms of sar-
castle obloquy. But, surely, though
this may be regarded with envy or in
dignatiOn in another place. it cannot
be supposed to raise any resentment in
this house, where many may be pleased
to see those honors which their ances-
tors have worn restored to the com
mons. "-LondOn Chronicle

Glaciers In Nebraska.

Many OF the physical features OF
eastern Nebraska were produced by
sheets of ice that invaded the region
during and after the earlier stages of
the great ice age At the opening of
the glacial epoch the great Keewatin
glacier spread southwark and covered
large parts of the DakOtas, Minnesota
and Iowa and extended thence into
eastern Nebraska, where it was prob
ably several hundred feet thick. This
first stage of glaciation was brought
to a close by the melting of the ice in
a warmer intergIacial time or stage
the Aftonian.
A remarkable assemblage of animals
invaded the region after the ice had
disappeared, and the bones and teeth
of many Of these animals have been
found in the Aftonian deposits of
western Iowa. The late Professor
Samuel Calvin identified the remains
of horses, camels, stays, elephants,
mastodons, mammOths and sloths.
When these animals lived in western
Iowa the climate there must have been
comparatively mild and vegetation
very abundant.-Geological Survey Bull

FOR HOW LONG
EdgertOn Raises a Pertinent
Question

When a neighbor tells us that he has
recovered from a serious illness, the
first question that naturally arises is,
"How long will he keep well?' Tenn
porary relief is one thing, but lasting
cure is altogether different. There is
nothing temporary about the work of
Doan's Kidney Pills as the following
Edgerton evidence proves beyond a
doubt.
John Dave, retired farmer, Broad
way and Fulton SITS, Edgerton, Wis,
says:-''I began sufferigg from weak
kidney several years ago. The first
symptom was dull pain in the small
of my back. l sometimes had dull head
aches and felt languid and little like
getting around. had frequent desires
to pass the kidney secretions. l took
treatments for quite while but didn' t
seem toEimprove. | finally got Doan's
Kidney Pills and l took few doses.
They strengthened my kidneys and
cured the pain. The cure has been
permanent. am pleased to confirm
the endorsement | have previously
given Doan's Kidney Pills"

The Heart of a Mouse.

A tiny mouse who lived near the
house of a magician begged him to
save her from the cat, of whom she
lived in deadly terror. So the magi-
clan changed the mouse into cat, and
she went away delighted. In a few
days she came back again in terror.
"Oh, save me, save me now from the
dog" she begged. And the magician
changed her to a dog. A few days
more and back she came, this time in
deadly fear of tiger. Nonsense y

TroIIope's Ciuars.

Anthony Trollope prided himself on
having reduced the writing of novels
and good novels-to something like a
mechanical process, devoting to the
work so many hours day and timing
himself to an output of so many words
an hour. His advice to the literary
aspirant was to glue himself to his
seat and write, but he himself had an
other source of inspiration.
One wall Of his library was devoted
to rows of little cupboards or bins,
each with a separate glass door and
filed with cigars stacked across and
across like timber to allow free cir
culatiOn of air. A pointed stud in the
wood above the door indicated the bin
in use, and as soon as any one bin was
emptied the stud was removed to
above the next door and the empty re-
ceptacle reflled from the big chests
which TrOllOpe obtained straight from
Administration Saturday Review.
