THE DEMOCRATIC PEANUT.

reminiscent suggestions are stirred
by the. death of Pembroke d. Gwalt-
ney, of Smithfeld, Va, for many
years known as the Peanut king"
Mr.. Gwaltney had much to do with
popularizing this typical American
product
The five cent bag of peanuts was
one Of the social facts of the nine
teenth century When you took the
small boy to the circus a bag of pea
nuts stirred the Juvenile heart, and
filed that illimitable cavity that
served him as a stomach.
Also when you took your best girl
TO the ball game a good sized bag OF
peanuts was a handsome and ade-
quate treat The customary brown
PAPER bag was attractive enough.
Your young women friends might
not be satisfied with any five cent
treat of peanuts today. Also the Of
ferings TO their robust hunger must
have a more artistic setting than
brown paper. 1t takes a dollar lot of
candy, put up in shiny boxes with
color printing and picture decoration

Young rowdies of rougher period
seemed TO delight in Smelling peanuts
all over the floors of public places
Today peanuts are apt to be sold all
shelled, which helps keep the gallery
floor in better order at places of en-
tertainment.
The peanut can never be relegated
10 the background. though it has to
compete with hundreds of appetizing
catables today. Nicely sailed, it is the
one appropriate rejection for circus.
summer resort frolics, and other out
door doings. A peanut munching
throng suggests outdoor jollity and
unconventional human enjoyment.
1t is a truly democratic refresh
ment. moderate in price, satisfying to
hunger. appetizing, capable of adding
a toothsome flavor in hundreds OF
styles OF cookery. Long live the pea
nut. and peace to the ashes of the

so, much time and money were spent
In perfecting n pure, gentle, yet effec-

all traces of the catarrhal poison from
the system. The prescription which
was eventually formulated and which
has aroused the belief that catarrhal
deafness and head noises will soon be
extinct is given below in understand
able form so that anyone can treat
themselves in their own home at little
expense.

Il took a telescope on top Of a

it, I found that il hit the horizon. I
tried several higher places in sue
cession with the same result. Kindly
explain why the horizon always
comes TO a level on a level no mat

Beach. y. ]"
The horizon does not come 10 a
level no matter how high you go"
and if you think you have proved
that il does, the reason for your error
I is either that your eyes deceived you
or your experiment was not conduct
ed with scientific care.
Assuming that you know that the
only horizon (meeting line of earth
and sky which is OF any value for
scientific purposes is the sea horizon,
let us consider how your mistake
may have arisen. As YOU do not tell
how high the building was on which
you placed the telescope. or what the
other elevations TO which YOU sue
cessfully resOrted were, l viii inter
pOlate figures TO fill the gap. Being
on the seashOre, and making your
observations from the top Of a build
ing 1T is not likely that your first
elevation was more than 100 feet
above sea-level.
Now the depression. or dip, of the
horizon, in angular measure. varies
as the square root of the height Of
the observers eye If we put the
height in feet, and neglect the effect
of refracuOn, the amount of the dip
Will come out, nearly correct, in
minutes of arc, a minute of arc being
One-siXtieth of a degree. The square
root of 100 is 10, and therefore 10
minutes is the maximum amount of
angular depression of the horizon
produced by the observers going up
100 feet above sea-level. This is So
slight that only careful instrumental
measurement would reveal it.
Next, suppose that your second sta
ton was hundred feet higher. The
dip of the horizon at an elevation of
200 feet would be only about IA 1-3
minutes of arc. and the difference,
4 l-3 minutes between this and the
amount of the depression observed at
100 feet elevation, would, of course,
be still more difficult to observe, and
only the most Skilful manipulation Of
the spirit-elevel and the telescope
could make the change evident. Even
if you went up to an elevation of
thousand feet the alp of the horizon
would be only about one-half of a
degree, and in an ordinary terrestrial
a plumb-line. the sea-line of the
horizon would run so little below the
center of the field of view that the
depression might hardly be noticed.
At a height of 5000 feet, or say a
mile, the horizon dips only about one
degree. Such a depression would
escape ordinary observation, and the
extent of surface in sight would be
equal TO half the area of the state of

MID-WINTER PROMOTIONS.

There seems 10 be a growing feel
ing among educators in favor OF more
flexible rules for school promotions.
In some schools it is a very difficult
thing for a bright child to skip a
grade. He may have too little TO do
in his present room. and this may tend
TO idleness and perhaps mischief.
with a little effort he could go 10 the
grade above thereby shorten his
schooling, and be mentally better for
the keener competition.
But il takes a little individual help
for this 10 be done. some teachers
are too indolent to give it, and in
many places the whole school system
is too mechanical.
AS far as possible the regular
routine should bend to suit the in
dividual child. The closer pupils can
be graded, the better they will adj
vance. 1t ought TO be possible for a
child TO go ahead without skipping a
whole year. If there could be one or
two regular times for promotion dur
ing the year, it would make it easier
TO put a child with his mental equals.
1t is just as bad to have too little
to do as to have too much.
