HUNTING NOTES

One of our young men had q novel
experience recently while out with his
gun after the wary partridge, writes
the Wintcrport correspondent OF the
Bangor News. He had carefully Sc
lccted his vantage point from which
to watch for the shy bird when so
flew to cover. when an unknown l1xy
alghted from a posing automohrc,
presumably to gather some late au-
tumn leaves which had escaped the
ravages of Jack Frost, a few PAGES
from the aforesaid hunter who. partly
concealed behind some bushes was not
seen by her. although he saw her
plainly. Meanwhile he did not relax
his vigilant watch for Madam Par
fridge. Lo: a fiutter of wings, a gun
shot. and events followed in close sue
cession. The unknown ran to the
waiting car. the driver started the ma
chine and away out OF slSht they
rushed, honking and speeding from the
scene regardless of speed limits. racing
engines or punctured tires, leaving the
amazed hunter surprised and amused
at their precipitate flight. However, he
brought back the bird and the above
story which with its embellishments
has furnished entertainment for the
villagers who hope Jack will soon
hunt, out on Cape Horn again.
Bert Young OF Auburn left Tuesday

reports of it's size reached Mr.. Young.
Upon arriving at the hunting
grounds the large tracks were plain
ly seen in the snow and the heart
of the hunter beat fast as he follow

doesn't know how long he followed
those tracks but when he came to a

the government in the name of five
parties in the progressive bloc, say
ing that the withdrawal from the bloc
'of the Extreme Left and the Progress

the ministers left the hall while he
was speaking.

600. Dozens of other homes will be
built in various sections of the town,
so that in the Fall Hershey's residen-
tial section will take on an altogether
new appearance.
Then, too, within the year. it is
quite likely that the town will have
two new churches. Mr. Hershey has
already made offers of ground and
both have been accepted. Deeds will
probably be tranferred within the next
few weeks. One site, at the extreme
west end of Chocolate avenue, was
offered to the United Brethren con-
gregation and a site in Cocoa avenue,
at the corner of a street, not vet
named, has been rendered the Catholic
diocese of Harrisburg. Bishop Shan
ahan has expressed his thanks for the
gift and it is believed that during the
summer work will be started on a
chapel. The United Brethren con-

The Hershey plans also call for the
building of new street car line from
here to Jamestown, in Lebanon .coun-
ty. When work on this will be start
ed no person appears to know, but it
will be one of the big developments
of the next year or two. At the pres
ent time a great reinforced concrete
structure to be used as the carbarn of
the Hershey Railways Company is be-
ing erected at the western end of
the town.
The home of the Hershey Press
which will be finished during the COM
ing summer is one of the most modern
buildings of its kind in the country
and in addition to the printing of the
newspaper, all of the chocolate COM
pany's job work will be done there.
1t is also reported that plans are be-
ing talked of for the publication of a
national monthly magazine. It is
said that part of the new printing
building will be used as bakery, so
that the town will not have to rely
on the outside for its bread. cakes and
pastry.
Within a very short time, five new

stone buildings, erected as an addi-
ton to the chocolate plant, will be
finished and the chocolate company
will have ten acres more floor space.
One of the buildings will be used as
the milk house and it will be double
the size of the building which it will
replace. Daily $4,000 quarts of milk
will be handled in the building.
Another big improvement here will
come with the completion of the new
home of the Hershey Zoo. The exhibit
here is conceded to be the largest free
exhibits irpthe State. The new struc-
ture will be twice as large as the ORR
ginal building and when 1t is finished
many more animals will be secured.
1t is expected the building will be
ready for exhibition purposes about,
May 80.
In addition to all of the buildings,
many new roads will be constructed
through Hershey and the territory
roundabout during the coming sum-
mer, so that for months to come this
community will be one of the busiest
in the country.

Boston gasp with amazement some
years ago, appeared at Keith's the

tinum wire thoroughly. Again we pass
1t over the forehead or across the palm
of the hand. We place it in the fame.
1t is colored a vivid red. This is the
flame of lithium. In one short half
hour the lithium, taken through the
mouth, has circulated through all the
highways, and byways of the human
body and has appeared in it's mar
velous journey upon the surface of
the skin.
Through this simple little expert
ment we obtain a crude idea of some
of the hidden forces at work in our
bodies. AS a rule we give no thought
to these forces and so are rarely COM
petent to challenge the character of
this or that food, although it is quite
obvious that the forces of life are de-
rived from food alone.
There is much evidence to support
the belief that potassium gives life to
the nervous system and assists the
heart to beat by influencing the re-
laXability of the heart muscles. If
the heart did not send the blood into
the lungs the body could not and
would not obtain the oxygen neces-
sary to it's life, nor could it, through
those delicate tissues, which are made
up of millions of little valves or filters,
dispose of the waste gases which would
otherwise poison all it's organs and
glands.
There are many discoveries of
science which justify the conclusion
that potassium interferes with the
hardening influences that menace
muscle, joint, and artery, making the
tissues soft and pliable.
1t has been noted that linen, made
from flax grown on granite soil, rich
in potassium, is noted for its supple
ness and softness, whereas linen pro-
duced from flax grown on calcareous
soil is hard, brittle and of little
strength.
In the month of October, 1915, po-
tassium sulptassium sulphate was
worth about $500 ton, as produced
from alunite by the United States
Smelling Company of Utah. At this
price the Armour Fertilizer Company
purchased its entire years potash pro-
duction. In spite of the value of po-
tassium salts and the necessity of
their presence in fertilizer, in 1915 106
tons of potassium salts were wasted
daily by the seventy-five distilleries in
the United States that subject mo-
lasses to processes of fermentation.
New Orleans company has taken up
the process of saving its potassium
salts from distillery waste to the con-
sideration of which the public has
been called by the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce.
The farmer has been taught,
through wrious federal and State bull
letins, to fully appreciate the necessity
of potassium to the health and vigor
of his plants, yet school children have
never been taught that when the body
cannot secure the quantity necessary
to carry on its wonderfully complex
duties the heart ceases to serve its
master and the body dies.
We shall soon consider briefly some
of the other food minerals in their
relationship to health and disease and
then quickly move on into our work
of disclosing just how the entire ma
ton is now being deprived of many
of these minerals and, in some in
stances, of all of them.

CHAPTER 20

A simple experiment that reveals
. 1lle subtle activity of mineral salts in
Ghe life processes of the human body.
Here is little experiment which
can be performed in the laboratory
of any high school by q boy or girl.
1t will help us to grasp some idea of
the remarkable conduct of the miner
ais after they have been introduced
into the human body
First eat a tablet of citrate of IL
thium. Then take q clean platinum
wire. Hold the wire in a blue Bun
sen flame. 1t will be seen that the
wire gives no coloration to the flame.
Now pass the platinum wire along
the skin of the forehead or across the
palm; return it to the flame and note
the beautiful yellow fire of sodium,
showing this mineral at work in the
elimination processes of the body.
Without sodium to take up the car
bonic acid. elaborated through the dt-
gestion of sugars and starches, as a
poisonous waste product that must be
removed from the body, this acid, bet
ter known as carbon dioXide, would
accumulate in the tissues and destroy
them. This is the reason that the
excessive use of denatured sugars,
table syrups and starches in the diet
of America is followed by many seri-
Gus diseases which will be described
later on.
Sodium is one of the food minerals
indispensable to health. The little
platinum wire and the Bunsen flame
reveal it at work in the performance
of one of its many functions
Now take a blue glass, which will
filter out some of the light rays that
interfere with our vision, and look
through it at the platinum wire in
the fame. Note the beautiful lilac
flame of potassium, showing this min
eral also at work in the elimination
processes of the body.
A study of the food minerals indi-
Gates very clearly that potassium helps
to keep the tissues flexible and active
while at the same time assisting the
sodium to carry off the carbonic acid
manufactured as one of the end-pro-
ducts of combustion in the furnaces of
life.
We shall assume now that half
hour has elapsed since the tablet of
citrate of lithium was consumed. For
our purposes it will be well to wait a
full half hour.
We shall now again clean the pla-

Lansings, Waynes and Etons were

so they would not take a drink for
