Mohammedan law does not run In
England was decided by the lord chief
justice recently. Doctor Mir-Auwa-
ruddin. a Mohammedan, and a member
of the English bar, married in 1913, an
English lady named Ruby Hood. After
some time they separated, and the lady
lived apart from her husband. The
latter then began proceedings and OBJ
tained an order for restitution of con
iugal rights, but this was not complied
with, and proceedings for divorce were
then begun by the wife, but were dis
missed Now, according to Mohamme-
dan law, If the husband gives his wife
a writing Of divorcement,' or as 1t Is
called "Talak," this constitutes di-
vorce. Mir-Auwaruddlng did this and
then applied for marriage license to
enable him to marry again. This was
refused. and the lord chief Justice sit
ting with Justices Darling and Bray
upheld the refusal on the ground that
as the applicant was married In Eng
land under the English law, to an Eng
lish lady, the original marriage held
good, and must be dissolved in an Eng
lish court of law. The religious law
of the applicant was not recognized.

WILL. HELP INVALID
Physicians Are Beginning to Believe
More and More In the Good Effects
OF Sweet Strains.

During the thirteenth century, when
the Arabs dominated a large portion
Of Europe and were "carrying the
torch Of learning" through that period
they established great hospitals Tor
the treatment OF all kinds of ailments
A striking feature OF some OF these
hospitals was IA music room, where
musicians played continuously through
out the "A hours for the benefit Of the
patients. The Arab physicians of that
day believed that music had n very
positive therapeutic effect
Recently nm analysis OF the effects
of various types of music has been
mnde by Dr. Thomas !, Mays, which
may be epltomlzed as follows: Ma
ior music Is a tonic 10 the emotions
which may be compared to stimulant
dose of strychHine or quihihe, while
minor music depresses emotional nc
tlyity I'm mauner comparable TO bro
mlde or n sleeping potion The ap'
parent objections to this theory are
easily met; and Doctor Mays believes
that music as an agent In the treat
ment Of consumption has probably Il
stronger claim on the scientific atteh'
ton of the medical profession thhh
many OF the remedies that are In use
NJ the present time. Keeping In nina
the undercurrent Of tribulation ana
oppression that is nearly always pres
ent in the minds of those suffering
from consumption, II would seem prop
able that by far the larger number OF
cases would receive benefit from yarl-
ous forms of major music. And The
same would be true of any form OF
chronic disease.
For stages of high mental or nery-
Gus tension. minor music Is Indicated.
And in this connection II Is significant
that music has been one Of the thera-
peutic measures used in all our great
insane asylums for more than gener'
alton.

lust an Accident.

Two boys had INDUCED in physical
encounter on the playground. At the
end of the affray they were summoned
before the teacher to give an account
of their misdeeds. One of them had a
bloody nose. The teacher looked upon
this sanguinary feature with horror,
and endeavored to instill In it's intiictor
certain pacific principles.
"Now, BILL" she said, II think you
ought to apologize to Jimmie"
"Huh l amt a-goin to apologize for
no accidentv' Billy answered.
Accident Why Billy, how can you
call it an accident? Didn't you intend
to hit Jimmie on the noseT

Effect of Auto on AarIeuIture.

Every time an automobile displaces
a horse five acres of land are added to
the agricultural area Of the country.
Among the economic influences of the
motor car, this is one phase that IS
commonly overlooked. There are
about 26,OO0,0O0 horses in the United
States and each horse consumes six to
seven tons Of food year. 1t is easily
figured that an average of five acres
is required to furnish food for each
horse. This means a total Of 10000
600 acres of land devoted to pastures
and raising hay-Over 100000 square
miles. This means land nearly five times
as big as Ohio, or an area larger than
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Iowa, de-
voted to feeding horses instead of peo-
pie. Of course, the releasing of all
this area from pasture uses and max
ing it available for the support of pop
ulation will be a tremendous economic
gain.

view in planning and carrying through
the construction of the Tamiami trail.
Lack of drainage as well as inaccessl-
bility makes dormant and worthless
hundreds of thousands of acres In the
Everglades, which experts claim CON
tain the most fertile soil to be found in
the world. The construction Of the
Tamiami trail removes both of these
obstacles. The methods employed In
excavating for the canal and throwing
up the rock mari and other material
for the roadbed, and depositing the un-
suitable material, such decayed veg
etable matter and muck, on the other
side is best described in Captain Har-

Hand labor was out of the question
and impracticable, so it became very
serious problem as to how to handle
the proposition with the varying CON
ditfons intermingIed. A land dredge
machine was decided upon and al
though it is a long ways from perfect
it has answered the general purpose
fairly well. 1t is of steel beam CON
struction, weighing some 4O,OOO
pounds. 1t has a cubic yard dipper.
1t straddles the canal and runs ON It's
own tracks and by its own power. The
steel rails are in four foot sections
and pinned at the ends with flexible
steel coupling on a 3-inch thick 3-by-3
oak cross ties, enabling it to run over
uneven ground. The tracks are 70
feet apart. Thus a canal source "A

Keeping sheep Warm.

Through the ingenuity of certain
ranchers in the state Of Washington
their sheep were kept warm during
the intensely cold weather of last
year by most unusual device. A
supply of natural gas on the land
where the sheep grazed had been piped
and the gas issued from it at high
pressure. The ranchmen in the VII
cinity devised a metal hood which they
fastened over the upper end of the
pipe. When the gas was lighted and
allowed to flow freely 1t made cir
cular canopy of flame which heated the
air for a considerable area. In this
warmed region the sheep gathered
and were kept warm in weather that
would otherwise have proved fatal.

CANAL SLIDES AT
LAST CONTROLLED
Sunday Work Is Suspended and
EiL.lt-Hour Day Is to Be
Inaugurated.
NOW HAVE NO MISGIVINGS
Foreign Ship Owners Satisfied With
outIook-Precautions Are Taken
Against Passing Vessels With
Explosives in Cargo.

Panama.-All Sunday work of the
canal dredges has been stopped for
tbe first time in four years. The en-
rineer in charge considers Sunday
work no longer d necessity. The
slides are so completely under control
il is further planned to work only
eight hours day on them after
short time.
The fact that no United States
cOastwise ships are now using the
canal proves that foreign world ship
ping has found the canal so safe dur
ing the last six months that there has
been no fear to come by way of the
Isthmus. Prior to the slides that
closed the canal coastwise United
States vessels were very large per-
centage of the total for the six months
period that had the greatest number
of ships make the transit. II the
coastwise vessels that were using the
canal prior to the slides had been US
ing the canal as they formerly did
the number of ships going through
during the last six months would
have been far greater than during
any previous six months since the
canal was first opened.

directions for the canal just made pub

Some men were excavating for a eel
lar in Columbus and the ground was
hard where they we're working. They
had team of mules hitched to plow
and one man handled the reins while
another swung on the plOw handles
and tried to guide. The afternoon was
hot, the mules we're lazy, the ground
seemed to get harder and harder, and
the men toileds away, inwardly boil
ing.
"That grounds pretty hard" sug-
gested a passer.
The man at the plow handles
glanced at the driver, The latter
seemed about to explode because of
too much pentup emotion. He nodded
in the drivers direction.
"That amt the worse part Of il" he
explained. "YOu see there are so
many women sitting on these pOrches
around here that he can't cuss his
mules. s."--Indianapolis News.

and "bitts" on the average ship are
too light and appropriately made for
careful and safe handling of ships by
the canal authorities.
"On account of danger to the lock
gates resulting therefrom, the Panama
canal reserves the right" the new sail
ing directions announce, 'to deny pas
sage to ships having inadequate
chocks and bits as described herein,
until suitable equipment can be in
stalled at the terminal ports"
Explaining this subject further, the
new canal regulations state
Experience has demonstrated the
fact that most of the chocks and bits
are too light in construction, and that
the chocks in particular should not
only be made heavier and stronger,
so that their jaws may stand a ver-
tical strain, but that they should be
of a permanently closed pattern and
not be made with open jaws. Bits
should be sufficiently strong to with
stand the strain of 11a-inch (diam-
eter) wire line with pull of $4,000
pounds, and be firmly riveted to the
decks, and If necessary where the
deck is Of wood or light plating, they
should have an under deck plate, or
be secured between two deck frames"
The attempts to injure shipping at
sea by explosives in among the cargo
has made the canal officials strict in
applying the regulations for ships
known to carry highly inflammable
cargoes. The new edition of the Off
cial sailing directions provides that
vessels carrying explosives or high
ly lnfammable cargoes should so no
tify the governor and obtain permis-
sion before they will be allowed to
enter the canal. In requesting per-
mission for such vessels to transit the
canal the character and approximate
amount Of explosives should be
stated, the ports of departure and
destination, name of ship and party
to whom consigned. This may be
done by mail or cable. In general
permission will not be refused, but
these precautions are taken to safe
guard the Panama canal. -. Vessels
carrying explosives consigned to ports
beyond the canal zone win not be al
lowed alongside the wharves while
such explosives ore on board"
