happy because the people were fed

Rules That VIII Help You Avoid |,

II you are out Of doors in a very
severe electrical storm the Electrical
Experimenter offers the following rules
for your protection:
Keep away from wire fences. They
may carry a dangerous electrical
charge long distances Cattle IN pas.
lures are frequently killed from the
neglect Of farmers TO ground the wire
Of the fence.
Keep away from hedges. ponds and
streams.
Keep away from isolated trees. Oak
trees are frequently struck, beech are
seldom struck. 1t is safe in a dense
forest.
Keep away from herds Of cattle and
crowds Of people.
Do not hold an umbrella over you.
1t is safer to sit or lie down in an
open field than to stand.
Drivers should dismount and not
stay close to their horses.
Do not work with any large metal

II you are indoors:
Keep away from the stove and chin
ney. The hot gases from the chimney
may conduct the lightning TO and down
the chimney
Do not take q position between two
bodies of metal, as the stove and wa
ter pipe for example. An exception
to being near metals is the case Of an
iron bed. One OF the safest places is
on a mattress in an iron bed. provided
you 90 not touch the metal The metal
surrounding you makes a safe cage
which will prevent the lightning from
reaching a person inside.
Do not stand on a wet floor nol
draw water from the well or faucet.
Do not stand directly under chan.

sALUTlNG MOUNT VERNON.
A Tribute Of Respect to the Memory Of
WASHINGTON,

A Tribute Of Respect to the Memory Of
Washington.
When the Mayfower, bearing the
French commissioners to the United
States up the Potomac to Washington,
passed Mount Vernon we were told
by the newspapers that the crew Of
the vessel were drawn up at salute
and the ships bell was tolled. Marshal
Joffre was particularly touched by this
ceremonial, and as the yacht passed
on up the river he walked to the stern
and stood silently watching the old
mansion until 1t was hidden from view.
What the newspapers did not tell us
and what many Americans do not
know is that the ceremony that so i'm
pressed our distinguished visitors has
been for great many years prescrib-
ed by the naval regulations. No Unit
ed States ship of war may pass Mount
Vernon without paying that tribute of
respect to the memory Of Washington.
As the vessel approaches the beautt-
full old place the commander orders
the bugler to Sound to quarters
The crew, officers and men hurry to
their places, the word passes to form
along the side of the ship that faces
Mount Vernon and to stand at atten-
ton. AS the ship comes abreast of
the mansion the command "Saluter'
rings out. Every man raises his right
hand to his cap and holds it there
while the ships bell tolls twenty-One
times, once for each gun Of the ma
tional salute
Sound the retreatp' comes the order
as the last stroke of the bell trembles
into silence, and the bugle sends its
plaintive notes across the water to the
tree clad slopes of Mount Vernon from
which the echo faithfully repeats them
to the ship.
1t is a charming ceremony, simple
yet indescribably moving, no matter
how often one sees it-Youth's Com
paniOn.

War has always had great influence
on medicine, first developing the priest
later the army medical officer In war

employ it.
Napoleon, who was often at loss to
supply his army with food, made
awards, which, from an empiric and
practical standpoint, developed can
ming and the preservation of food be-
fore bacteria were known.
The American medical profession
will ever be under obligation TO our
army medical officers for their services
to the world in the discoveries Of nu-
merous diseases, their causes and pre-
vention, said DR.. Charles r. Mayo In
an address reported In the New York
Medical Journal.
Our army medical officers stand pre-
eminent in science To Beaumont we
are indebted for the first report on di-
gestion, digestive fluids and gastric
! movement from direct observation of a
patient with gastric flstula. To Sur
geon General william Hammond we
are indebted for the development of
the army medical museum.
Surgeon j. s. Billings fostered the
second largest and the best medical
library in the world Surgeon General
Sternberg discovered the pneumococ-
Gus and founded the army medical
school and the government laboratories
of bacteriology and hygiene. Under

~HE Grand Canyon Of the Colo

-AAG Va dAAQ SduJO1l Va tAAC SOlO
RADIO is a small scratch on the
earth's surface made by Nature
to show man what an insignificant
insect he is. IT Is 100 miles long, 13
miles wide and 5000 feet deep.
Viewed from Mars, it would look
like wrinkle on the face of Nature.
Viewed from its brink, it is so awe
inspiring that even Commercial
Travellers look at it in silence, and
FAMOUS writer's claw hopelessly for
adequate adjectives.
The Grand Canyon was made by
the Colorado River about the time
the mother-ln-law joke was invented.
The Colorado is not a. large stream,
but 1t has always been very busy,
1t has eaten its way through a mile
of sandstone and a; thousand feet Of
granite and has produced a chasm
filled with weird temples of red,
yellow, white and black rock, 5000
feet high. 1t is estimated that it has
taken to accomplish this enough
horse power to light a boulevard be.
tween here and the moon. One can
always tell power magnate by the
way he weeps when he sees the
canyon.
The Colorado Canyon runs
through a vast desert and begins
without warning. At any point for
q hundred miles, 1t would be possible
for the casual wanderer to step of
of the United States and to starve
to death before he got through fall
Ing. This shows the wiadom Of Ma
ture. Had she placed the Canyon
near New York, 100000 people a
year would fall into 1t, while. in Its
present position it does not need to
be fenced at all. However, owing to
its isolated position, the Canyon
does not draw nearly as much tour
list Patronage as Niagara Falls, Mt.
Vesuvius, Uncle Joe Cannon and
other natural phenomena. More
people see Coney island in a night
than see Colorado Canyon in year.
This Is partly what is the matter
with New York.
The Canyon is located In Arizona,
So miles away from the nearest
drug store, and is already In the
hands of trust, there being only
one railroad to It. 1t is so vast that
thunder storms not only rage In it

Velvet was developed and originated
In China. Thence velvet making was
introduced into India and In the four
teenth century into Italy, where that
sort of fabric especially appealed and
where the art Of velvet making reach

was first inspired by fur and that it
was in order to make a silken fabric
on the same order as fine fur that man
first set his wits about to invent this.
