How to Make Red Blood.
J. II. Kellogg, M. D., in Good
Health.)
Sun bathing and outdoor life n

the bpal moans for making red hl0ui
When one goes oul into thy sun, the
skin gets tanned brown color This
influence Of sunlight is not seen SIM
ply upUn the surface OF the skin;
the cOlOring matter is formed and
developed deeper in. The suns rays
strike down in and penetrate per-
haps for an inch or two into the soft
tissues, SO that the influence Of the
sun is felt on the interior Of the
body, as well as on the outside.
Another thing that is highly bene-
hcial is exercise, because it encOur-
ages the movement of blood through
the body. 1t is in the marrow of the
bones that the blood is formed. The
circulation of the blood through the
bones can be increased only through
the use of the muscles. A single
blood vessel carries the blood for
bathing the muscle underlying the
bone. If the muscle is active, the
amount of blood circulating through
it may be five or even ten times as
great as that circulating through the
muscle when it is idle, and conse-
quently the amount of blood circu-
lating through the bone will be pro-
portionately increased, because of
the larger amount of blood brought
to the limb as a whole. 1t is appar-
ent, then, that exercise IS one of the
most important of blood-making
agencies.

She Took No Chances.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 12.-The
uncertainty of the results of a surgi-
cal operation was the plea made this
morning for a decree of divorce by
Mrs. Grace Eyth, who sought sepa-
ra i"' from Adoplh J. Eyth, a sales
man.
Mrs. Eyth, who is said to possess
an estate Of $4,000, told Judge
Johnson in the Circuit Court that she
was about to undergo a serious ope-
ration and in the event of her death
her husband would receive half Of the
estate unless the divorce decree was
granted.
Disagreement over money matters
was the original ground on which
the suit was brought Judge John
son granted the divorce.

NEW MACHINE GUN
OF United States viii Fire 500
Rounds Minute.
(Springfield Republican,

new type of machine gun, an i'm
proVement on the 1904 model Of the
Maxim gun, made by Hiram Maxim,
Jr., OF Hartford, Conn, has been ad-
opted by the United States army and
plans are already well advanced for
It's manufacture. The local armory is
already constructing model which
will be a standard for the army, the
plans for which were secured from
England. This gun overcomes the
difficulties of jamming experienced in
both the 1904 Maxim and the Benet-
MERCER machine gun now used by
the army, 1T being possible to fire
5000 rounds without jamming. This
has been demonstrated by elaborate
tests made in Texas. The new gun
has already been adopted by the Eng
lish army, and is now being used in
the European war. In fact several
improvements have been suggested
as result of it's use in the present
war, and will be incorporated in the
new model if deemed advisable.
The new Vickers gun, so named
from the partners Of Mr.. Maxim, has
its improvements in the feed box, the
cartridges going into the box on a
belt from above instead of below as
in the 1904 model. In the Benet-
Mercier gun the feeding is done with
fiat strips containing some thirty
cartridges. The gun rests on tri-
pod, weighs 65 pounds instead Of "a
pounds as in the case of the Benet-
Mercier, and is water~cooled instead
of air-coOled as in the case of the
Benet-Mercier. The increased weight
is not SO great as to detract seriously
from its increased advantages, in the
opinion of experts, the only serious
handicap over the Benet-Mercier be-
ing in the water-cooling device which
will require additional equipment for
transportation. The gun will fire
500 rounds a minute, whereas the
older types now in use shoot about
700 a minute.

BAIT CASTING A REAL ART
Worth Pursuing, Since II Gives to Its
Devotees So Much of the
Joys of Life.

The bait caster! What memories
of ily-padded lakes, shimmering in
the FURNISHED gold of the setting
sun, of roseate twilight peace,
when the lake is one vast mirror; of
furious battles with that bulldog of
the sweet waters, the black bass, are
his!
A most difficult art, one that re-
quircs more than a modicum of prac-
tice to acquire-to place that lure
precisely in given spot, forty or
fifty feet away, where a bass NAV
lurk-not near the spot, but right in
it, mind you-to land that lure so
as TO simulate a frog or minnow nat
urally leaping or jumping to escape
possible attack by bass; to do all
this with a short rod and high-speed
decI, casting the lure as small boy
throws an apple from the end of "a
@tick-to do this with accuracy and
dcT1neSs is no unworthy ambition.
And after the strike comes battle
between a fiye-pound fish and $50
pound man, squalized by fair tackle,
that will put the eXhilaration of eter-
nal youth into any man-especially
If ne proves himself worthy to beat
the fish at his own came, to take him
with all the handicaps imposed by

against all the snags, tactics, leaps
and plungcs, rushes and feints en-
plowcd by the battling bass.-Amer-

TWO CLASSES OF THINKERS
the Tender-Minded and
the Tough.

Professor James of Harvard was
wont to divide philosophers into two
classes, the tender-mindcd and the
tough-minded. At times he varied
the phraseology by referring to them
as the thick and The thin; at other
times as the tendcrfooted and. the
Rocky mountain tough.
The Undetermined are, according
to Prof or James, the philosophers
Of a speculative turn, the RATIONAL
lists, going by principles > the
tough-minded are the empiricists,
''going by facts" Further, the ten
der-minded are intellcctualistic,
idealistic, optimistic and dogmat-
ical; the tough-minded are material
istic, pessimistic and skeptical.
If we are to believe James, there
is little love lost between these two
classes of thinkers. "The tough
think of the tenders as sentimental
lists and softheads. The tender feel
the tough to be unrefned, callous or
brutal
The Undetermined spin their fine
cobwebs of theory, but the tough
minded look abroad "on the colossal
universe of concrete facts, the awful
bceHiderments, the surprises and
crueities and the wiIdncss things
show" and at least face all that, if
they can't explain it,
