Relics of Cliff DWellers.

Recently discovery was made by
forest rangers of an unexplored ruin
of the ancient cliff jewellers in the
Mesa Verde park, and subsequent de-
velopments have proved that it is both
extensive and interesting. A long
ladder was constructed and swung
over the face of the cliff at height
of 900 feet from the bottom of the
canyon. The ruins contained 25 rooms,
but no kiva, or large ceremonial cham
Der, such as is usually found in SINH
lar ruins. The rangers in brief and
cursory exploration of the ruins found
in plain sight ten stone axes, fourteen
large stone jars, each eighteen inches
high and three feet, six inches in cir
conference, two small jars, two parts
of woven baskets, one wooden slab
five inches wide, twelve inches long
and one-half inch thick, curved up at
the sides; several pieces Of yucca
rope, one piece spliced with sinew,
one piece of woven yucca fiber and
several human bones.

A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE
Medicine Not Needed in This Case.

1t is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury! They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsupported
one.
But the doctor knows. His wide ex-
perience has proven to him that, to
some systems, coffee is an insidious
poison that undermines the health.
Ask him if coffee is cause Of con-
stipation, stomach and nervous trou-
bles.
II have been a coffee drinker all my
life, and when taken sick two years
ago with nervous prostration, the doc
tor said that my nervous system was
broken down and that would have to
give up coffee.
II got so weak and shaky I could
not work, and reading an advertise
ment of Postum I asked my grocer IL
he had any Of it. He said, Yes and
that he used it in his family and 1t
was all it claimed to be.

SWISS ARE WELL PROTECTED
Alpine Passes Could Be Stormec Only
in Single Column, at Ire
mendous Risk.

National defense is no light burden
upon state of less than 100000
inhabitants, although the nature of
the country lends assistance The
mountainous boundaries which sur
round the Swiss on three sides are
valuable allies, but the low-lying
country on the north, from Basel to
the lake of Constance, is seriously
exposed. This is the part which In
the past has tempted the Germans and
French to try flank movements, and
where the Rhine would be only
hindrance, not a prevention of inva-
sion. Between 1868 and ITO at least
seven expeditions of considerable mil
itary importance marched across that
portion of Switzerland, without re-
gard to the feelings of the inhabitants.
Since 1915 the neutrality of that re-
gion has been, on the whole, observed,
but the Swiss have maintained the
greatest possible watchfulness during
periods of war.
The Alpine passes are approached
by fine, broad roads of comparatively
easy grade, and could be readily
mounted by armies and their artil-
lery; but this must be done in single
column and the risk to an enemy
would be tremendous. At several
points long tunnels admit railways
and the obstacles to peaceful COM
MERGE have been removed. No war
has brought the tunnel to the test of
defense, but every preparation has
been made to stop the entrance Of an
enemy. Elaborate Notifications upon
the st. Gothard combine both the
road and the railway, while the
Rhone valley is defended by similar
works at st. Maurice and Martigny.
On the southeastern border the
Swiss soldiers must stand within a
few yards of the road and watch the
Italians and Austrians contend for the
Stelvio pass at a height Of 10000 feet.
On the south the boundary is compli-
Gated by the lakes which extend from
Italy or France into Swiss territory.
Along Lake Geneva wide neutral
zone has been maintained for years,
but the situation is none the less del
icate between Switzerland and France.

Kerosene Put Out Fire.

A bale of cotton when compressed
for shipment abroad has the density
of an oak plank.
Recently in California a large guam
tfty of baled cotton became ignited,
and, as is always the case, the fire
ate into the center of the, bale. The
density of the cotton will allow water
to penetrate the bale only very slowly.
Kerosene will penetrate the ibers
very fast and. knowing this fact, kero-
sene was used ana the supply of oxy-
gen which was necessary to the fire
cut off. 1t was successful and the
greater portion of the cotton saved.

KILL HOG LICE BY
USE OF PETROLEUM
Spray Pump viii Coat One Hoo
in Few Minutes-Pens Should
Be Scraped Out.

A quick and economical way to
Kill hog lice is to spray each hog
with crude petroleum. The back, un.
der the legs and around the head
should be well coated. If the crude
petroleum cannot be had use coal oil
or kerosene emulsion. To make the
emulsion dissolve one pound of hard
soap in four gallons of hot water. Re.
move the soap solution from the fire
and pour in two gallons of kerosene
and stir vigorously for ten minutes.
When 1t is to be used mix one quart
OF the emulsion with six quarts of wa.
ter, stir thoroughly and then apply.
A spray pump will coat one hog in a
few minutes. The pens should be
scraped out, then washed with hot
soapsuds, and when dry coated with
quicklime. Lice will prevent growth
and a dirty pen will breed lice. To
cleanse the skin after the hog has
been oiled, wash with warm water
and carbolic soap, use a stiff brush;
after washing rub dry. A clean hog
Will take less feed to make growth.

vested in elaborate barns is seldom

Some of the most expensive barns
have been the most inconvenient and
impractical. In many cases this is
due to the fact that they were planned
by city architects knowing little or
nothing Of the operations necessary in
handling cows and milk. In building
such barns, display and fancy appear

Ordinarily the building Of a barn

Many mistakes may be made in

The double-door archway Is wide
enough to throw the two doors togeth-
er when required. Furniture to CORE
spond helps to carry out this combina-
ton plan.
The large chimney, built OF rough,
dark-colored brick. adds to the appear.

ing. The projection. which forms a
seat in the dining room, also adds to
the attractivenes Of this end OF the
house. There is triple mullion win
dow In this extension designed to ad-
NIT plenty Of light to the dining room.
The manner of placing the house on
the ground is interesting. The lot
slopes away to the back. so that the
low iungalow effect is given to the
front part Of the house. but the base
ment wall at the rear is high enough
for good-sized windows above the
ground. The manner of building
shingle siding down to the ground in
front also adds to the bungalow ef-
feet.
The planting of house properly ON
the lot has good deal to do with its
artistic appearance. A pretty house
should be placed some distance back
from the street line, for the same rea.
son that you stand some distance
away to survey picture ON the wall;
you want to get the right perspec.

The manner in which house is sur.
rounded with trees, shrubbery and
flowers also has a great deal to do
with its artistic appearance when
viewed from the street.
The best house designed may be
improved or spoiled by its immediate
surroundings.
Likewise the neighborhood has a
great deal to do with the fitness of
the house. A house that would look
well in one section of town would be

PRESERVING EGGS
IN SALT SOLUTION
Interesting Result Of Tests Given
by German Newspaper-Any-
one Can Try Scheme.

A German paper gives in substance
the following, as result of certain
tests where the eggs were placed in a
saturated solution of common salt:
"A fresh egg lies in horizontal po-
sition at the bottom of the vessel; an
egg from three to five days old shows
an elevation Of the fiat end SO that its
long axis forms an angle of 20 de-
grees. With an egg eight days old
the angle increases to As degrees;
and with one fourteen days old to 60
degrees, and with one three weeks
old to 75 degrees, while an egg one
month old floats vertically upon the
pointed end"
Anyone can try this. A scale must
be attached to the outside of the YES
sci to determine the angles.
