TOKYO STREETS A PUZZLE
Even Old Residents Are Said to Find
II Hard to Make Their Way
About Them.

Tokyo is made up of group of small
towns which expanded until, like the
old lady's two teeth, they hit. 1t is the
most conservative city in Japan, and is
the one most lacking in unity of spirit.
Each district has its own market and
it's own shops. Homes and stores are
mixed together in bewildering confu'
sion, and even old residents find 1t
hard to find their way about the
crooked streets.
On my motorcycle, the only way
have mastered the problem is by mem
Orizing the numbers of the tram lines
and then riding till 1 see a car. Then
I know where l am. The city is
grouped around the imperial palace
and segments, like dehOrned pieces O1
pie, radiate from the center of the cob
web. AS one cannot start from the
center of this mixup, due to the fac
thatethat is where the sacred person o.
the emperor holds court, he must pla!
''ring around the rosy" at some dis
tance from the center. If he is nea
the outer circumference, two miles Ol

circles the inner mOat, they mean an

SOULS ENTRANCE INTO BODY
Matter Over Which Theologians Have
Differed Since the First Time a
Theory Was Advanced.

DR.. Austin O'Malley of New York
has just revived the ancient discus
sion concerning the moment the hui
man soul enters the body. In an ar
ticle in America he contrasts the two
opposite theories: (D That of Aris-
totle, that the soul is infused about
the fOrtieth day, to which st. Thomas
Aquinas; st. Anselm, st. AlphOnsus
Liguori and most of the medieval NOR
alists and theOlOgians adhered. (2)
That the entrance of the soul is stimuli
taneous with the fusion of the single
nuclei in the two parental germ cells,
to which most modern embryOlOgists,
physicians and mOralists give their
adhesion.
Cardinal Mercier and some other
great theOlOgians cling to the Aristotle
lian theory today, basing their belief
on the idea that not until the body
takes actual human form is the
breath of life" breathed into it and il
becomes "a living SOUL"
But Doctor O'Malley and the embry
OlOgists hold that the earliest embryo
is a human being, therefore a bod!
with a human soul.

SCIENCE AND WAR A UNIT
Members of French Military Expedition
in Balkans Are DeVotlno Much
Time to Both.

The French military expedition in
the Balkans, following the example of
the armies of Napoleon and Marshal
MaisOn in carefully preserving and
classifying all objects Of archaeological
interest discovered by the troops, has
gathered data that it is thought will
throw much light on the primitive his
tory of Macedonia.
Objects unearthed in trench digging
at the front in Macedonia and in the
construction of field works in the in
trenched camp are assembled at Sa.
lOniki all duly labeled, with full de
tails of their discovery.
Organized research is being done sc
far as circumstances permit. Three
flying columns have been sent to cover
particularly interesting regions tt
make soundings with a view to the
preparation of archaeological charts Of
maps.
These columns have already collect
ed information of inestimable value
with specimens of poetry, fragments o.
ceramics, with data as to the depth a
which they were discovered.

Racial Differences.

A new idea is that races of men may
be differentiated chemically, just as
they are separated by easily seen ply.
steal or anatomical peculiarities of
makeup, hair, skin, etc. In the blood
Of Germans a count of 4,5700O0 white
corpuscles per cubic millimeter has
been made, while a similar count in the
blood of French has shown an average
of 5,500,000; and it is believed that
other racial differences quite as notable
will be revealed when a wide compara-
tive study shall have been made. The
study as suggested would include the
density Of organs, viscosity of the
blood, and the general chemical rela-
ITEMS of the various parts of the body
1t is pointed out that the results might
clear up the mystery of the immunity
of certain races to certain diseases, ex
plain the cat-and-dog antipathies OF
same races, and show us why certain
instincts and appetites are so persist
ent in various people. Doctor Bariilor
foresees that the chemical test of races
would even greatly aid In shaping Inn
migration and marriage laws.

Instantaneous Hot Water.

The "thermo-faucet" is the name
of a new invention designed to
bring a supply of hot water from the
most stubbornly cold spigot within
few seconds. 1t is a 660-watt cleo
trio heater which is readily at
tached to the plumbing piping, and
when connected with the nearest cleo
trio lighting outlet heats the water in
the faucet to the boiling point three
seconds after the current is turned on.
The water coming through this heater
is pure, we are told, and may there
fore be used "where ordinary tank wa
ter would not be sufficiently sanitary"
Hence it should prove a boon to doc
tors, dentists, trained nurses, confec-
TONERS, as well as to the long-suffer-
ing male who prefers but seldom gets
hot water for his shave.

NATURE HOLDS BALANCE EVEN
Creatures That Prey, and Those That
Are Preyed Upon, Have Natural
Increase Limited.

However smart and awake to the
frequent dangers that may at any
time assail them, the creatures that
are preyed upon are often caught; the
preying ones get them from time to
time, and if this were not so they
would increase beyond all bounds. IL
is true also that those that prey often
go hungry, and they, too, have enemies
or diseases, which later amount to the
same thing in the struggle for exist
ence and the limiting of numbers. SO
nicely is nature balanced as q gen
eral thing between the killers and the
killed that if but an unusual influence
enters in, as an additional number or
carnivOrOuS creatures in any neighbOr-
hood, or the growing up of an addi-
tional amount of cover, there will be a
falling off, on the one hand, or a con-
siderable increase, on the other, OF
those animals that are preyed upon.
Thus is seen the influence, both
ways, of mans part in natures COM
plicated contest. The gunners and
trappers weigh heavily in Overbalanc-
ing the otherwise normal balance
against both flesh and vegetable eat
ers, and where, in the unusual good
ness of his heart, man has endeavoreC
over considerable areas to protect
nearly all wild life, the result Is
shown by a rapid increase among the
protected animals.

Rheumatism is Torture
AS Many a Smyrna Reader
Knows Only Too Well

Many pains that pass as rheumatism
are really due to weak kidneys-to
the failure of the kidneys to drive off
uric acid thoroughly. When you suffer
achy. bad joints, backache, too, dr.
illness and some urinary disturbances,
get Doan's Kidney Pills, the medicine
that is publicly recommended by over
$50, 900 people in many different
lands. DOan's Kidney Pills help
weak kidneys to drive cut uric acid,
which is often the cause of the bach
ache, rheumatism and lumbagO.
Smyrna people have learned their
worth. Read this Smyrna resident 5
experience.
George F. Jacobs, Mt. Vernon St. u,
Smyrna, says: Il suffered from rheu-
matte pains so badly l could hardly
turn over in bed ! couldn't sleep at
night and felt all wornout and gen.
orally run down. l believe the trouble
was brought on by exposure and also
to the jar and jolting OF riding on t
wagon, which had a weakening effect
on my kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills,
procured from Clifton & Jones
Pharmacy, helped me more than any
other medicine and in short time ne
tirely relieved me. -

John Mccormack, Famous Tenor,
Sings Here in the Retailers Course


John Mccormack, the worlH ia
nous Irish tenor, will be heard at the
Auditorium Tuesday evening, Janu-
airy Is, as the fourth number in the
course Of the Associated Retailers,
Mr.. Mccormack is easily the most
popular singer on the concert stage
today, as is easily seen by the ca
pacity audiences which he draws
wherever he appears. He has won
his way to their merited appreciation
through the natural and beautiful
lyric quality Of. his voice, combined
with the whole-hearted warmth and
sincerity with which he sings. He
shows wonderful skill and great CON
troll in his use OF mezza voca quality.
He is one Of the few operate singers
who, on the concert stage, does not
sacrifice both art and voice by con-
slant unvarying style of dramatic ex-
preston. We must have contrast,
and Mr.. Mccormack exemplihes and
employs this contrast with powerful
color and true artistic style and
finish. Needless to say, Mr.. McCor-
mack is thoroughly at home with the
old Irish folk melodies. Their orig
inal beauty and sincerity Immediately
warns the hearts of his hearers.
Their flowing freedom of rollicking
gayety and their mournful strain Of
tender pathos stirs the heart with a
strange and fascinating intensity.
Whatever he sings he interprets in
his particular style that is irresistible,
be it an aria, ballad or a folk song;
it receives the same consideration,
the same wonderful concentration
and the same inimitable delivery. The
man loves to sing, and, understanding
the ethics of giving the whole song
to his auditors in all its dramatic and
musical purity, he succeeds, not in
singing for his audience, but in sing
ing to his audience.
John Mccormack is not only gifted
with wonderful vocal powers, but
also with the power to use his voice
at its fullest worth. Standing before
an. audience he is a wizard song-bird,
swaying the emotions of his fellows

And Dreshers have accomplished
all of this huge success by doing
excellent cleaning and dyeing and
attending strictly to their own
business. Such a thing as
"knock" against another cleaner is
unknown at Dreshers; Dreshers
made their success simply because
they've been able to jump right
over the shoulders of all the rest;
they haven't time for small
