DISEASE SPREAD BY ANIMALS
Scientists and Physicians Have Pre-
pared a Strong Indictment
Against the Beasts.

Although animals are not affected
by the sickness and communicable dis
eases of man, yet, for some unexplain-
able reason, the scientists and physi-
clans declare that a whole host Of
Outlines fatal ailments of mankind are
traoeable to the beasts, says Popular
Science Monthly.
The horse is blamed for spreading
glanders, rabies, lockjaw and other dis
eases of five or more syllables. Dogs
and cats are branded as the circula-
tors of rabies, parasitic worms OF diff
ferent kinds, f1eas and ticks.
The cow is the worst offender. The
list of diseases laid at her barn door
is headed with tuberculosis and grows
constantly more blood-curdling, until
we wonder why physicians and scien-
lists consent to the use of milk, butter
and cheese which. still lead the dieti-
tians' list of nutritives.
Rats, squirrels and fleas spread the
bubonfc plague. We are prepared TO
believe that lice and bedbugs, flies and
mosquitoes are the rapid transit lines
for yellow fever and malaria. We are
willing to forego the luscious oyster
all the year around, if need be, to
avoid typhoid fever.

Eacts Aoout Prolific Fish.

The cod IS estimated to yield 4,0O0,'
900 eggs each season. AS many as
eight, nine, and even nine and a half
million eggs have been found in the
roe of a single cod. An eel was caught
IN Scotland some years ago which was
80 inches long and weighed about two
pounds. The Ovary was about L
inches long as it lay in the fish. but
when opened out it was nearly SO
inches in length. and it was calculated
that this contained upward of 10000
600 eggs, riyaling, if not surprising,
the cod in this respect.

HOW COLD AFFECTS SOUNDS
Numerous Examples Can Be Given,
but Exact Reason Is Hard
to Explain.

A close observer describes two phe.
nomena of nature not easily explained:
First, that natural sounds are very
different in the colder than in the
warmer months Of the year; and, sec
ond, that waters have different tints
during the colder and warmer months.
A number of examples occur to
prove the first phenomenon. Who has
not noticed the contrast In the noise
of the wind in different seasons when
1t blows around the corner of the
house-in summer what a soft, mellow
tone it has and in winter what q
harsh, rough whistle?
Then, again, let US stroll along the
banks of a stream in May, June or
July, and we will observe that the wa
ter will then make a gentle, babbling
sound. while in November or winter
it will, with not great volume, make a
hoarse, gurgling noise.
Still again, if we ramble in the
woods during late spring or early sum-
mer, we cannot but notice with what a
softness and mildness the wind has
been blowing through the tops of the
trees; on the other hand, what roar
ing it makes in cold weather
Perhaps the trees being with or
without foliage may cause some diff
ference, but it will be observed in May,
before the leaves are out to any ex-
tent, there is even then a marked diff
ference between that time and Decem.
Der. Often we have heard it along
telegraph wires during the summer
and winter, and have noted the con

One feature which. marks tea curing
in Japan is the proverbial cleanliness
which is Characteristic of the japanese
people. The rules of sanitation are
strictly observed by the tea growers of
Japan. Not only the health and SAM
tation OF workers are strictly examined
by local tea associations, bur also the
process of curing is inspected with
great care. Japanese teas have never
been artihcially c0lored as have been
teas from some other countries.

what is meant by an Irish potato.
There are five distinct varieties of po-

reservation by President Wilson and
General Pershing, their aid was joy
fully welcomed by the British and
French and Americas unselfish action
in relinquishing independent command
for the time being was highly praised.
One hundred thousand thoroughly
trained American troops at once began
moving toward the places selected for
them, singing and cheering as they
ploughed their way through the mud,
happy that they were at last to have
opportunity to take a real part in the
mighty conflict. Where they were as
signed to duty naturally has not been
revealed, but wherever they may fight,
there is not the least doubt that the
high opinion of them held by the Brit
ish and French officers will be fully
justified.
The American aFiatOrs Ia France
have been giving invaluable aid and
have won unstinted praises by their
holiness and skill during the battle.
Attached to the service Of the allies,
they have helped them maintain COM
plete command OF the air. The Ameri-
can Red Cross, 1t is almost unneces-
sary to say, has covered itself with
added glory, for its physicians and am,
bulance men and nurses who were in
! the battle zone have devoted them
selves with bravery and self-sacrific'
to the care Of the wounded and to help
/ ing the refugees.
