Old Moon Beliefs.

The health, growth and develop
ment of children and animals were
years ago supposed to be influenced
by the moon. If the sign was right
at the time Of birth they would be
well formed and intellectual, but if
it was wrong there was no telling
what sort of creatures they would
become. Every worthless fellow,
every dog, roofing hog, fence jump
ing cow or kicking horse was be-
lieved to have been born under an
unfavorable phase Of the queen of
night. Queer people or those who
were of hateful disposition were
children of the dark meea, with the
sign below the heart.

ROMANCE OF GASOLINE.
1T One Time It Was the infant Terror
of the Oil Industry.


Gasoline first compelled public
attention in the role of the little
demon in the kerosene OF coal oil
lamp. In this capacity il kept the
coroner and the insurance adjuster
working overtime.
When crude oil was first discover
ed in the Pennsylvania district the
public received it as csre-all for
diseases instead of a fuel or an il
luminant.
Then it was discovered that by
subjecting it to distillation a certain
portion of it could be used for light
ing purposes, to supplant candles
and lamps using whale oil and vege-
table oils.
But it was found that consider
able fraction-about 20 per cent
of this oil had so low a boiling
point, was SO volatile and explosive
that it was extremely dangerous in
lamps. At the sign of the coal oil
lamp of that pioneer period fires
and explosions were the prevailing
program.
1t was soon seen by the refners
that if kerosene was to become a
popular illuminant. the eight boil
ing point fraction" must be takon
off the top and disposed of in some
other way. For a considerable time
it was turned into the nearest
streams and allowed to dispose of
itself by evaporation, but expert
ence proved that this was decided
ly dangerous method of disposal.
The rcfiners were forced to recog-
nize the fact that in some way they
must find legitimate commercial
outlet for this volatile fluid, which
was so explosive that it could not
be dumped without great peril to
life and property.
Under the pressure of this eco
nomic necessity, about 1875, a man
named Hull, who was in touch with
the Cleveland refineries, invented a
vapor stove, which was the father
of the gasoline stove of today. For
a time this furnished a very con-
siderable outlet. A considerable
quantity of gasoline was also con-
sumed at this period in street lamps
and out of door lighting systems.
About 1908 the motorcar, with its
internal combustion engine, appear
ed on the scene-just in time to
rescue gasoline consumption from a
decided setback, due to the fact that
gas had come into general use for
lighting and heating purposes and
was able, on account of its greater
cheapness and safety, to push gaso-
line out of competition to great
extent.
Gasoline has, IN short, pushed
King Kerosene from the throne.
The outcast, the infant terror o4
the oil industry, has now become
the car of the whole empire OF
petroleum commerce, and there are
few who do not pause at the sign
of the garage pump to pay him
tribute.-Forrest Crissey in Satur-
day Evening Post.

Wool In Early Virginia.

Great encouragement was given In
Virginia in early days to the raising
and manufacture of wool. The assem-
bly estimated that five children not
over thirteen years Of age could by
their work readily spin and weave
enough to keep thirty persons clothed.
Six pounds OF tobacco were paid to any
one bringing to the county courthouse
where he resided yard of homespun
wooden cloth made wholly In his fami-
ly; twelve pounds Of tobacco were Of
fered as reward for a dozen pairs of
wooden hose knitted at homo. Slaves
were taught to spin, and wool wheels
and wool cards are found in the eight
eenth century on every inventory OF
planters house furnishings.

Punta Gorda People Will Do Well
to Heed the Warning

TO have good health, the diges-

must work perfectly. When there
is anything wrong with the diges-

prompt warning. Kidney trouble
is more easily overlooked, howev-

start. But kidney trouble does
give early signs, and backache,
headaches, dizzy spells, rheumatic

neglected. When these warnings
appear, use Doan's Kidney Pills,
