MUSICIANS HAVE LONG LIFE
Reasons Why Those Who Furnish Us

Investigations made recently by a
well-knOwn doctor lead him to con-
clude that musicians who play wind
instruments are exceptionally long
lived.
Cornet players are credited by him
with an average life Of 89.1 years.
Clarinet players are next with 64.4,
while the average oboe and bassoon
player lives to be about sixty-three
years old. The lowest duration Of life

cause of the formation of their instru-

authority. reacheS an average age Of
61.2 years.

CITY OF QUEER CONTRASTS
Nome, Desolate in Winter, 10 Fever
Ishly Lively During the Short
Months Of Summer.

Ships approaching the coast Of Alas
ka watch eagerly for the first glimpse
of break in the low horizon line, and
as the faint silhouette of city ts
caught by the spy glass word goes
round that Nome is in sight. The
square outlines grow steadily palmer
and broader. Unmindful of the heavy
waves that crash so dangerously near
its doors the city is reaching out to
the very waters edge to greet the in
coming shir. A bobbing launch comes
out to meet the ship and bring In the
passengers TO the shore.
The gold seekers built Nome in the
rush of 1893, and the gold seekers still
add their quota to its population. They
have made it city Of contrasts-of
ostentatious wealth and hopeless de-
sires. Where they camped on the
beach and built wooden huts and sa-
looms the city has grown up. When
more space was needed, it spread ITS
houses along the beach in long un-
even rows.
From November to June it is frozen
into dull apathy from which 1t
rouses to attend theaters, dances, and
other social frivolities which make
the winter tolerable. Ice bound and
dark the winter may be, with only
three or four hours of pale sunlight a
day, but the popular idea of the wilds
of Nome is an interesting myth. Elec-
tric lights, telephones, department
stores, banks, hotels-Nome has all Of
these perquisites of modern civiliza-
tion.
When the sun begins to shine stead
lily and the fresh surf pounds on the
beach, Nome awakes and the summer
residents who have gone "outside" re-
turn. The population is practically
doubled. Nome spends its summer
months in wildly rushing about to
make up for the enforced dullness Of
the frozen winter.

Why Iron Chimney Stacks corrode

The cause of corrosion Of galvanized
iron extensions to chimneys is laid
generally to condensation which forms
inside the stack, and which in con-
junction with the carbon which has
been deposited in use, creates a gal
vanic action which soon destroys the
zinc coating and finally eats through
the iron or steel base. To prevent
the condensation an air space around
the stack is recommended. The stack
Is made double from the base to
point close to the top, with small iron
braces between the inner and outer
castings. These may be riveted close
to the ends Of the sheets in course of
construction. The air space may be
one or two inches, according to size of
smokestack, and local conditions

Man In the Making.

We are all sculptors of life. From
the anthropoid ape stage clear up
through the ages, in the slow process
of evolution, man has been at work
chiseling himself. Always on the whole
betterlng himself little, eliminating
the animal, the brute qualities more
and more, In spite of setbacks, he has
persistently struggled toward the real
ization Of his ideals-the higher man,
the ideal man.
Our sculpturing is mental; our
thought Is the chisel that traces the
ideal in life's marble. Angel and de-
mon, beauty and ugliness, success and
failure lie side by side in the mar
