Special Eyeglasses for Divers.

A new eyeglass has been patented for the use of submarine divers. It is well known that the human eye does not function properly under water, ob- jects appearing badly blurred and dis torted. This is due to the fact that the speed of light in water is different from the speed of light in air, and hence the light rays enter the eye with a different angle of reflection. The eye. being designed for focusing rays coming through the air, is unable to focus rays coming through the water. The condition is analogous to that of defective eyes which are unable to fo- GUS properly ordinary light rays in the air. It may be similarly corrected by the use of special lenses, with the help of which the diver can see as clearly under water as in the air.

BRAIN WORKS BEST AT NIGHT
Many Noted Writers and Painters Have Found Calm and Quiet Con-
 ducive to Best Work.

The brain can apply itself and work far better at night than at any other time is the conclusion to which Albert Cim has arrived in his treatise of the subject in a recent number of the French magazine La Revue.
 The reasons upon which he has based his conclusion are, first, that you do not risk being disturbed by telephone. visitors, janitors or cooks; second. that there is calm and si- lence at night which is most propitious to thought, calm which reigns nearly everywhere and at that time envelops one; and. third, there Is no incom- moded noise at night.
 He cites the cases of authors who wrote only at this time; George Sand, for instance, whose favorite hours were from midnight to a. m.; NJ. Littre, who works at night and does his dig ging and delving in lexicons in the day. Balzac was another nightworker and when he was forced to work by day he invariably drew the blinds and lit the candies to fool himself Into belieT- ing it night. He went to bed generally al 6 or and was called at midnight,
 Painters, M. Cim says, find night conducive to work. Here he cites the case of Ggodst ss

Derivation of "eermany.n

German" and "Germany" come from the Latin Germanicus and Germania, which were the Roman names for the Germans and their country. The words are supposed to be from Celtic root which some say meant "shouters" and others say meant "neighbors." The Germans call themselves "Deutsch," which is from the same root as 'Dutch" and 'Teuton." The root meant "of the people" or belonging to the people" and may have been the re suit of al effort to put into barbarian tongue the Greek word ethnikos, mean Ing the same thing "of the people, or ".Iacial," The relation between "Dedtsch" and "Tepton" is more easily seen when we consider that "Deutsch" used to be spelled 'Teutsch~ --az5fE

Policewomen in Britain.

War has drawn women into police service in England. In eight or nine cities policewomen have been installed as part of the regular force. The po- licewoman is in large demand in the munition factories, where, owing to the presence of many women, she performs many functions such as detective, chaperon, welfare worker and watch man, but in the main in these plants her work is of preventive and protec- tive nature, serving the young people of her own sex.

IVAN AS SEEN IN TRENCHES
Letter From Artist in Trenches Tells How Russians Face Death in
 Fierce Fighting.

The Paris Figaro contains many let ters from Russian soldiers who, before the war began. were residents in Paris. One. an artist, thus describes a scene one evening before orders were car ried out by the regiment 10 make a move in the rear. At a certain place on the Russian front the gassing from the enemy became uncomfortable. large ly because of the weak location of the Russian trench. To remain where the regiment was was to court certain suf- location. To retire meant volleys of shells. It was resolved to retire. A few minutes were given for Ivan-the Russian boys-to prepare.
 "One of them" writes the Figaros correspondent. ''took from his breast cross and kissed it three times. Then, looking toward the dark sky, re- peated the sacred words. mother, fa- ther and wife. He replaced the cross in his breast, and said quietly. q am ready" He was the first to fall under the merciless fire of the enemy. An other soldier, not long in the trenches, and speaking with an eastern accent, knelt In the cold, damp trench, and went through his devotions. Tt will be easier" he said. flor me to die than Ivan here. I have no one to care for me"
 But he got through the scrimmage to our rear trench. Such are the for tunes of the trench in this eastern fight

Malaria Underrated Disease.

Malaria is an infectious disease of moist tropical regions, and of temper ate climates in late summer and early fall. being associated with marshy areas and mosquitoes. Dr. J. w. Trask finds that in the United States it's se- riousuess is much underrated, and points out that while 1t is not comm6n- ly direct cause of death, 1t lowers bodily resistance, and has great lnfiu- ence in shortening the average dura' ton of life in localities where it oc- CUTS. It is given so little attention by physicians even that little accurate in- formation as to the extent of its preva lence can be had. Though it has not yet been entirely banished from any state, however. il is known to be much less widely prevalent than 90 years ago, and the northern limit of the epi- demic area has gradually receded from the Great lakes and over the Canadian border. so that the disease has almost disappeared from Wisconsin and Min nesota, once badly infected.

Since April l German submarines have been equipped with four new devices which increase their de- structiveness. and render it more diff ficult for chasers to discover their wherea bouts. Formerly the U-boats, 10 remain in one spot. had to come to the surface. or anchor themselves to the bottom; but four small pumps are now used which enable them to remain stationery while submerged. This not only conserves fuel but pre- vents its enemies from hearing the throb of the submarines propellers. Telescopic periscopes give further as sistance to the submarine in conceal ing its position. A mixture of oXy- gen and strained gas is now used in the engines. and the exhaust is wash ed free of smoke and broken into small bubbles, which do not leave a wake. Finally. new listening devices enable it to hear and judge the size of ships at considerable distance.

KERNELS OF SEED CORN TRUTH

If you plant corn from stalks thai have suckers, that is what you will raise. Like begets like. Select your corn seed from the stalk as it stands, so you will know it's parent age.
 Short thick, storm proof stalks with ears that grow low are the right kind for the central and south ern states. Get your seed from such stalks because slender, t3p-heavy stalks are likely to mean loss.
 Seed ears from the best producing stalks in the field produce more than seed ears apparently as good but gathered without considering the productiveness of the parent stalk. The place to select seed corn is in the field, not in the crib; the time to select it is as soon as it is mature, not at husking time.
 Take seed corn from the best pro
