TOO MANY CHILDREN
are under-size, undsr-Ueight

with pinched faces and poor blood; they
do not complain but appetite lags, they
have no ambition and do not progress.
Such children need the rich medicinal

everything else; its pure cod liver oil con-
tains natures own blood forming, flesh
building fats which quickly show in rosy
cheeks, better appetite, firm flesh and
sturdy frames.
II your children are languid, tired

their studies difficult, give them ScoH's
Emulsion; it supplies the very food ele-
ments that their systems lack.
SCOTS Emulsion contains no alcohol

SANITY IN MUSICAL WORLD

Summing up of the musical year
has begun-though the drums, flies,
trumpets and bands in certain of our
parks are stimulating the public spir-

ergy. On the whole we have been
generous. Mr.. Percy Scholes' list of
interned musicians contains no alien
composers and performers in English
prisons. But harmony was split.
Brodsky (of Manchester and Russia)
was caught in Germany, Richter re-
-nounced his English honors, Kreisler
went to fight for Austria, and Lamond
was shut up at Ruhleben, Harmony
was disturbed. In England the war
threatened for a moment to Danish
the music made in Germany. But
sanity prevailed. Wagner could not be
banished. The Royal Philharmonic re-
fused to abolish the bust of Beetho-
ven from it's place before the orches-

the household has changed. Women
were taking very keen interest in
politics, and one girl of eighteen was

sionary work both old country and
American missions are doing much
for these women, and the Christian
schools established by them are
looked to hopefully in the way OF
results. Their aim is to train UP
Christian teachers, as it is considered
that the Chinese women will dc
far more valuable work in evangel
izing their own people than could
be done by women of other coun

BAD MANNERS IN SOME SHOPS
Story Concerning the AmuGing su.

some critical remark about a simple

looked pityingly at the customer, as
though sizing her up according to tho

that, you know, you would only fiad
on an expensive gown-a $50 goWn!"
Mrs. x mimicked the grande maniere

To- GUIDE TROOPS AT NIGHT
Prismatic Compass Is Declared to Be
of Great Value to Military
Commanders.

Leading troops across country by
compass bearing with as much GER
tainty by night as by day is made
possible through the use of a pris-
matte compass just brought out in
England. The name given this com
pass is due to the prism fitted to one,
side of the frame, although this is not
the most important feature of the in
strument. The dial, which is made of
mother-of-pearl, has center coated
with luminous paint, and in addition to,
this there are luminous patches OH the.
lid by which the instrument is readily
sighted at night. When a night march
is to be undertaken the instrument is
opened and exposed to the daylight for
half an hour. This is sufficient to.
make the dial center and sighting
patches luminous for from six to nine.
hours. In the latest form of the in
strument this exposure to daylight is.
unnecessary, owing to the use of.
radium, substance that is always self
uminous.-Popular Mechanics.

TORTOISE OUTLINES THE ;IARE
Rabbit May Get to Be Five Years of
Age, but the other May Reach
Four Hundred.

The ages of living things vary from
a moment to hundreds of years. The
tortoise is said to take the prize
among all land animals for length Of
years. This animal lives, under favor
able conditions, 300 or 400 years. One
died in London in 1906 which was said
to be at least $50 years old. The
crocodile, too, sometimes lives to be
300.
The tortoise has to give in to the
whale, however, for the latter often
lives to the age of five hundred. That
is probably the Oldest age reached by
any creature which exists upon the
earth today.
The common little English sparrow
lives longer than most of us imagine.
Scientists tell us that some of them
get to be forty years old. This is a
ripe old age for so small bird. The
robin, which is much larger, lives
only ten or twelve years. The eagle
holds the record for age among the
birds. 1t may live to be 100,
The elephant lives, on the average,
about as long as the eagle. The old
est age among our common domestic
animals is reached by the horse,
which often reaches 80 or more This
is practically the same as the age of
lions and camels. The cow may live
to be 25, the dog Is, the rabbit about
five. Most Of us know, however, of
cases in which common beasts or
birds have lived to much greater ages
than are allotted them ordinarily.

Lazy, That's All.

New York women are lazy house
keepers. All experiments with public
markets, cooperative food stores and
direct-from-farm-to-kitchen projects
come sooner or later bang up against
the fact that housewives hereabouts
will not take the thriftiest means of
getting food supplies. Every now
and then municipal markets start off
with flourish. But in a short time
it is found that they are doing mainly
a wholesale business. The housewives
they are supposed to benefit are buy
ing their food from the corner store
and paying the same old prices, how
ever high they go. New York women
are too proud to take their baskets
and go to market as do the women OF
Pittsburgh. Women in this city talk
high cost of living" 1t is the fashion
to groan about it. But it is not the
fashion to fall to and help reduce IT.

temperature of pine leaves in winter,

these leaves, under winter conditions
maintain temperatures from two to
ten degrees centigrade higher than
the surrounding air, owing to the alb
sorption Of radiant energy.
The average of $50 readings taken

One Really Funny Thing.

There is only one really funny
thing in life" an artist philosopher
confided THAT is clothes. Naked
savages seldom laugh, and when they
do laugh it is not the laugh of humor.
1t is the laugh of disdain or triumph.
Fact is, they haven't anything to laugh
at. Nothing is out of tune, nothing is
out of style. They can't masquerade,
they can't pretend. They can't be
funny until they get hold of some
civilized persons necktie and old hat.
After that, they can become as con
ventional and ridiculous as the most
civilized"
