WHY MILK REFLECTS LIGHT
Consisting Of Minute Droplets Of Fat,
It Throws Back Rays In Every
Direction.

One is often apt to forget that color
Is merely a reflection of light. and
that anything which reflects light per.
fectly will be the color of that light.
The most nearly perfect form to re-
fleet Ia a sphere. The moon is bright
because it reflects the sun. The earth
Is bright for the same reason, as one
can e at the time OF new moon,
when the part of the moon hidden
from the u by the earth shines faint.
~ from reflected earth light.
Milk is like a collection of moons
It Is a liquid filled with minute drop.
lets of fat, each of them a perfect
sphere. When the light strikes these,
1t Is reflected at every angle, reflect
ed on to other droplets of fat and by
them reflected on and on, until from
every point in the milk the white light
that strikes on the outside ia re-
f1ected.
Think of marbles made OF looking
glass, but so small that several thou.
sand could be put on the head of a
pin, and you will see the reason for
the reflection, or the white color OF
milk.
When, in the case of milk, the mum.
Der Of these little rejecting drops
grows smaller, then the light is not re-
Elected so much, and the liquid grows
more transparent. Absence of full re.
Election makes milk less white, or, in
a sense, more blush. as the semitrans.
parency of air makes blue sky. and OF
water blue sea.

Washington.-The department o,
agriculture is taking action through
the biological survey and the for

of rabies infection OF wild and domes.
tic animals that is in danger of be-
coming widespread in the far West
The fact that the extensive dissem'
ination Of the disease is taking place
through the agency OF coyotes makes
the situation a difficult M to meet.
Outbreaks of rabies among coyotes
have been noted from time to time for
several years in parts of Washington,
oregon and northern Idaho, and the
forest service undertook last year to
aid in bringing the disease under con
troll by employing hunters to make
war on coyotes in the national forests
Of some infected localities. Since,
however, the coyotes breed in the foot.
hills and around the outskirts of the
forests, a more comprehensive cam.
paign is called for.
The eradication Of coyotes in sparse.
~ settled or rough country is said to
be an exceedingly difficult task. In.
asmuch as these animals are always
a source of considerable losses to the
live stock industry of the West, con.
gress last year provided a special fund
Of 3125,00 to be spent by the bio.
logical survey for the eradication OF
predatory animals, both in the ma
tional forests and on the public do
main, and from this fund a special al
lotment has been made to pro-
vide for fighting the rabies.
The disease first appeared in parts
Of eastern Oregon and Washington
and northern Idaho, in a region sur.
rounded by natural barriers which
tended to confine the outbreak. Do.
mestic animals and human beings
ere bitten, and a good deal of alarm
was manifested by residents of the
Infected districts, many of whom
feared for the safety of their children
on the roads to and from school. The
disease is now reported as having e.
tended into northern Nevada and
northern California, whence it may
easily be carried far.
The forest service, the biological
survey and the state board Of health
are working together to meet the sit,
uatiOn in California. Modoc and Las.
sen counties have been put under quar-
antine by the state board, which has
appointed forest rangers inspectors in
Modoc county. Funds have been pro-
vided by the biological survey for the
employment of additional men and the
purchase Of traps and poison. The
public will be enlisted in the cam.
paign. which will be led by the bio.
logical survey officials and the forest
rangers.

BLIGHT FATAL TO SQUIRRELS
Animals Are Dying by the Thousand,
In Blue Ridge Chestnut
Forests.

Waynesboro, Pa.-The squirrels are
said to be dying of in droves in the
Blue Ridge mountains to the east Of
Waynesboro and on down through the
Catoctin ranges in Frederick county.
Bunches of dead fox and gray SPUR.
rels are being found on the ground
by woodchoppers, chestnut hunters
and others.
The condition is so exceptional that
the folks about the mountain are un.
able to account for it, except on the
theory that the animals have been
poisoned by the chestnut blight that
has been raging in the Blue Ridge
chain for the last year, destroying
thousands of trees. Hunters and 9th.
ers say that this blight is a deadly
poison and that no animal except a
catamount can partake Of it and sur.

-,LlTH NOT A BIBLE NAME
figures in Jewish Legends as a De-
stroyer of Infants-AIso as
Adams First Wife.

Lilith is not a Bible name, but o
Hebrew word, used to designate an
imaginary being referred to in the Ri.
BILE, but not by name. An authority
gives Lilith as "the name of the first
wife of Adam, according to rabbinical
tradition" and says: "She was made
Of the earth as was Adam himself, and
would not submit to be ruled over by
her husband. Seeing no possibility OF
an agreement between herself and
him, she fled away to the sea, where
she became the mother of a race OF
demons and as a punishment for re
fusing to return to Adam, one hundred
Of her children were to die every day.
Lilith became noted in Jewish legend
as a destroyer of infants and for this
reason they adopted the custom OF
writing the names of three protecting
angels on slips of paper or parchment,
and binding them upon the infant, to
prevent the evil influence of Lilith."
This refers to an ancient custom and
we do not know that any trace of 1t
survives. Another authority says that
the Hebrew name I.ilith attaches to
the passage in Isaiah 34:14, which
says, 1.-THE night monster shall settle
there and shall find her a place OF
rest" Popular superstition named
this imaginary night monster Lilith.
and the Jewish encyclopedia says
"The superstitions regard;nS, ner and
her nefarious doing were, with other
luperstitions, disseminated more and
gore among :.he mass of the Jewish
people. She becomes a nocturnal de-
mon, flying about in the form Of a
night owl, and stealing children. She
is permitted to kill certain infants
and if a child smiles during the night
Of the Sabbath or Of the new moon,
it is a sign that Lilith is playing with
it." The Jewish encyclopedia treats
as unworthy Of notice the idea that
Lilith was Adams first wife, but adds,
"She is a clear instance of the persis-
tence Of popular superstitious beliefs"
The word undoubtedly is Hebrew, but
as it does not appear in the Bible its
connection with the passage in Isaiah
about a demon of the night seems to
be purely arbitrary.
