That all diseases can be cured by
bleeding is still firmly believed by sew
eral savage tribes and especially by
the Papuan negroes. When one Of
their physicians becomes convinced
that it is necessary to bleed patient
he goes several feet in front of him,
and then, drawing his bow he fits a
sharp pointed arrow to it and, after
careful aim, fires the arrow into the
vein which he desires to open. The
arrow, it is said, invariably goes
straight to the mark, and the thorn or
splinter of glass with which it is tip
ped does the work as successfully as a
lancet. Moreover, the patients never
show the slightest fear, since they are
convinced that from the moment the
arrows pierce their veins they win be-
gin to recover.

Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? It is much the
same way with cough. A cough is
a danger signal as much as fire
bell. You should no more try to sup
press it than to stop ire bell when
it is ringing, but should cure the di-
sease that causes the coughing. This
can nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Many have used itwith the most ben
eficial results. 1t is especially val
liable for the persistent cough that
so often follows bad cold or an at
tack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas Beech
ing, Andrews, Ind, writes: During
the winter my husband takes cold
easily and coughs and coughs. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is the best
medicine for breaking up these at
tacks and you cannot get him to take
any other" Obtainable everywhere.

Preparedness.

Obadiah, trying to cross the field
where the bull was. attracted the at
tention of the beast, whereupon began
a foot race of great personal interest
to Obadiah. His neighbor, Silas, saw
the race start in a fair field and saw
Obadiah putting his best foot forward
and mending his gait at every step In
an eagerness to make the creek, a
good mile away. Obadiah, Logging 1t
at the peak of his effort, managed to
make the bank scant few feet in ad-
vance of the bull and essayed to leap
the thirty feet between the banks. He
landed in the middle of the creek.
Silas observed this dispassionately and
looked back over the mile of field with
a judging eye. He hitched his shoul-
der and spoke:
'You cert'nly can't spect to jump that

EXPANDING THE CHEST.
Proper Attitude to Assume During
Breathing Exercises.

Proper Attitude to Assume During
Breathing Exercises.
It has been the popular belief that
when exercising certain arm move
ments during inspiration, such as hold
ing the arms up, expand the chest
and enable it to take in more air. Ac,
cording to DR.. James Frederick Rogers
in an article in the Medical Journal,
this is not the proper thing to do. He
tested fifty persons of both sexes,
ranging from sixteen to forty years of
age, measuring carefully the quantity
Of air inspired when elevating the
arms, as usually taught, and when
standing still with the arms hanging
loose. He found that in no single case
did the arm movements increase the
quantity of air inspired, but in many
found that standing naturally is more
conducive to deep breathing than ly-
ing fiat or hanging by the hands.
1.-THE raising of the arms" he writes,
docs apparently increase the measure
ments of the upper parts of the chest,
but the increase is due to the change
in the position of the muscles in this
region and to their contraction of
stretching, which causes them to stand
out from the thorax. For the muscles
which lift the arms forward or side
ward or upward have nothing to do
with the lifting of the ribs, and conse-
quently no special effect upon the
depth Of inspiration.
with very deep inspiration there is
drawing backward of the head and
Strengthening of the thoracic spine. In
other words. the assuming of very
erect posture and, if any exercises are
to be carried out as aids to deep in
take Of air. it seems that the drawing
backward of the chin and the assump-
ton of the most erect standing or sit
ting posture would be most useful as
an aid or accompaniment of deep
breathing"

Machine Guns.

Machine guns are really rifles with a
mechanical feed. which supplies them
rapidly with cartridges. in all modern
patterns they are automatic in action.
The gas produced by the explosion or
shock Of the recoil opens the breech,
elects the spent cartridge, loads the
rifle. closes the breech and fires the
charge. These complicated operations
are carried out with extraordinary
speed. To give an example: The Max
i'm can fire at least 450 rounds a min
ute or more than seven shots per sec.
ond, and if in exceptionally good order
and cleverly operated can discharge
900 rounds a minute.-London Tit Bits.

According to the bill outlined by
the Anti Saloon League, and which
will be voted upon by the people
of this State at a special election in
1916, if the Legislature passes the
measure and grants this right to
the people, Maryland will be dry
on and after May 1, 1918, if the
people ratify the act of the Assem-
bly,.
The bill must first be passed by
both houses of the Legislature.
AS it is not to be in the form of a
constitutional amendment, but
simply in the form of any other
law, a constitutional majority OF
three-fifths of the members of each
house will not be needed, but
simply a fiat majority. After the
bill passes both branches of the
Legislature, it goes to the Cover
nor, for his signature. No doubt
has been expressed but that Gov
ernor.elect Harrington will sign
the measure, so that on the date
specified in the bill it will come up
before the people to be voted upon
by them.
Ifthe people defeat the measure,
that will be the end of it. IF they
ratify it, then, on and after May,
4, 1918, Maryland will be "dryo
from one end to the other, and no
section of the State excepted. DR..
Thomas M. Hare, superintendent
of the League has announced that
there will be no deviation from the
State wide prohibition measure,
that no section of the State will be
excepted from the provisions OF the
bill, that it is to be a fight to the
finish on State wide prohibition.
and that it will be "prohibition or

nors have their woes in making
appointments and in deciding the
fate of bills put up to them by the
legislature. But Mr.. Harrington's
woes will be twice as great as
those of any recent governor of
Maryland, because he has two dis
tinct factions in his party and both
will be- clamorous for places.

Gratis, who made possible his
nomination, will be persistent in
their claims, because they will say,
without their support he would
not have won at the primaries.
On the other hand, the friends If
Senator Blair Lee and the leaders
of the regular city organization
will ask for recognition, because
they will say they are an import
ant part of the Democratic party
and without their votes Mr.. Har.
rington, although nominated by
the Smith organization, could not
have won at the general election.
Mr.. Harrington will have to sit up
late every night until he makes his

deciding between the two sets of
rival claimants. His path as Gov
ernor promises to be strewn with
more thorns than roses.

The river Tigris appears in the book

was parted. The name by which we

that both tiger and "Tigris" mean In
