Just sunpose These THINGS.

Light travels at the rate Of 10000
miles per second. AS everyone knows,
we are now looking at some stars with
lights that left them centuries ago.
Suppose that you could be shot into
space at velocity greater than that
of light. And suppose that you were
armed with telescope so powerful
that you could see everything that hap.
pened on this earth. A time would
come when history would unfold itself
before your astonished eyes. You
would see Napoleon losing the battle Of
Waterloo; you would see Benjamin
Franklin and all the other signers of
the Declaration Of Independence vow.
ing that they would be hanged rath.
er than endure British oppression any
longer; you would see the surrender nj
Yorktown, the battle of New Orleans
and the naval fight off Santiago; you
would see the death of julius Caesar,
and then Mark Antony making love to
Cleopatra on the Nile. If you like, you
could juggle yourself back and forth
so that you could see the same event
over and over again and make a spe-
cial study Of it.-POpular Science

ROOM FOR MORE DEMOCRACY
Writer of Opinion That Parents Gov.
ern Too Much by Mandate or
by Elaboration.

The typical parent is not democrat
ic In the treatment of his children.
He likes to govern by mandate or ex-
hortation. He dogmatically asserts
his views on every question that
arises, and insists that he knows more
than his children, and he has no re.
spect for their motions" One can
listen to a parent telling his thirteen
year-old boy what kind Of cap he
must wear and how and when he must
wear it, though the boy says "the
boys will smoker" at him, and he does
not want to be "the goat" of the crowd.
But the parent will listen to no argu-
ment; he says he knows better than
the boy what the latter ought to do,
and he does not care what the boys
think.
Much of the conflict between par
ents and children is due to the fact
that the former do not recognize the
right Of the latter to express opin-
ions contrary to those of the parent
on any question or problem whatso-
ever. One can hear such a parent
say: 81 will teach you to obey. When
your opinions are wanted, I will ask
for Them" and so on.
A parent who is bully never can
get an insight into his children's
thoughts about conduct and so he can
never know what sport is to be a
parent.-M. V. O'Shea in The Mothers
Magazine.

Taylor Holmes Pays to Ride

AIDS IN PARCHMENT READING
Camera Used Successfully in Preserv-
Ing Old Writing Now Barely
DiscernibIe.

Before the days Of books parchments
became so costly that economical schol-
ars erased more or less perfectly what
had been written and used them O sec.
ond time. In this manner some highly
interesting and valuable manuscripts
have been lost to the world, says
New York Herald. But In many cases
the ancient characters are still visi.
BILE.
1t was not long ago that photography
was first successfully applied for this
work. The color Of the faded ink Of
the older writing on a palimpsest is
yellow. A photograph of such man.
uscript was made through yellow
screen. The result was a negative on
which the old writing was barely dis
cernible, being a little darker than the
background, while the later black
writing appeared distinctly as white
letters.
Next an ordinary negative on bro
mide plate was made and from this
was produced transparent positive on
which both writings appeared dark and
about equally distinct. Then the trans
parency was superposed on the first
negative so that the dark letters Of
the later writing covered the light let
tiers, representing the same writing in
the negative. They were thus elimi-
mated, being indistinguishably merged
with the general dark background pro-
duced by the combination of positive
and negative. But the earlier charac-
tiers, since they were dark In both
cases, appeared in the combination in
tensely black and distinct.

The Naive Indexer.

The librarian who indexed Wilde's

Cornish town who indexed Borrow's

ing. But he excelled himself when he
included In his catalogue Besant's
Golden Butterfly" as entomology, and
a book on American drinks as educa-
tional. However, librarians are not

BATTERY lover THERE"
Topeka Headquarters Company and
Band Also in France Now.

Battery A and the 1870 field artil-
Iery have arrived safely overseas. ac-
cording to cablegrams received by rel
atives and friends of various members
of the battery The artillery regiment,
wholly a Kansas product, included SIX
batteries, a supply company. a head
quarters company and the reg1mentai
band.
Battery A was the first national
guard unit organized in Topeka and
was one of the crack batteries in the
border fracas in 1916. The battery
was the pride of Topeka and among
it's personnel it included some of the
finest blood of the city and state. The
headquarters company, the band and
the supply company were all organ
lied in Topeka after the declaration
of war in April, 1917.
The last thing Topeka saw of Bat
terry A was when it marched down
Kansas avenue shortly after the free
state fair closed in September. With
the band playing. and with colors fly
ing. the boys marched to their train
in the early morning, just after day
break. In spite of the hour. tho. thou
sands of eager Topekans lined the
streets and were gathered at the de-
pot to give the boys a rousing good
bye.
The regiment will be equipped with
French guns after it is ready to go
into action on the battle front. It Is
possible that the 100 field artillery
will take a part in stemming the pres
ent German drive.

WON'T TRADE IN X. C.
Chanute Citizens Demand Cleanup
Under a Boycott Threat.

Chanute, Kan, June Aroused
by the murder of D. w. Hargraves in
Kansas City Sunday of last week. and
the action of the police department
in making a greater effort to blacken
the name of the murdered man than
to apprehend his murderers, Chanute
citizens and business men decided this
afternoon to offer reward Of $1,000
for the arrest and conviction of the
murderer.
The matter will be taken up with
the war department in an effort 20
secure the cooperation of army Off
Gals in helping to clean up Kansas
City.
The Chanute Rotary club is also
planning to take the matter up with
the national Rotary officials and ask
an investigation to determine if Kan
sas City is a fit place to hold their
international convention in June.
Chanute merchants and citizens
generally are notifying Kansas City
wholesalers and retailers they wish
their accounts ended and that their
money will be spent elsewhere until
Kansas City really cleans house.
One Chanute woman with an ac-
count in store there has written
them that as Kansas City is not safe
place for men, it, of course, is not a
safe place for women, and that she
has cut them off her list.
Other Kansas communities are join
ing with Chanute in the movement.

Largest Rainfall in Three Years

Warm Weather Made Great I'm

There was more rain at Topeka dur

other month for almost three years
time and the average temperature was.
with one exception, higher than that
of any preceding May, as shown by
the detailed report of the Topeka Of
flee of the United States weather bu-s
reau. 1t was also a record breaker by
being the windiest May and having the
heaviest twenty-four hour rainfall for
this time of the year. The amount of
sunshine was about normal.
No unusual temperature extremes
occurred, but there was an almost I'M
broken, succession of days with tenn
peratures ranging from 2 degrees to
2 degrees above normal, the average
for the month being degrees above
normal.
The total rainfall up to noon of the
last day amounted to ITO inches, or
2.22 inches above normal. Dry wealth
er prevailed the first three weeks, but
the ground was thoroly soaked the
closing days of the month. More than
half the monthly amount fell within
18th. when the downpour amounted to
4.36 inches

Wheat made a splendid growth and
was in full head when the month
closed. Corn planting was finished and
the crop up enough to be cultivated
in many places Potatoes, truck crops,
and gardens were extra fine for the
time of year. The first crop of alfalfa,
which was ready to cut as the month
closed, was rather light on account
of the cool weather which preceded.

Preparations for the series of baby
clinics to be held in the months of
July and August at the city building
under the auspices of the Topeka
Public Health Nursing association are
completed, according to a statement
made today by Miss Mary Larson,
who will be in charge. A special
nurse has been obtained for the-sum-
mer and Miss Larson will devote her
whole time to taking care of the
babies who will be brought in to be
weighed and measured. The services
of an efficient doctor also have been
obtained.
1t is intended that all babies in the
city under 2 years of age shall be
looked up and examined. This service
will be absolutely free of charge and
every mother is urged to take advan-
tage of it. The first clinic will be
held Tuesday. June 4, and clinics
thereafter will he conducted every

GEN. WOOD TO FUNSTON
Popular Military Leader. Will Come
Back Temporarily at Least

Washington, June 1.-Temporarily.
Gen. Leonard Wood is going back to
Camp Funston, in Kansas, Secretary
Baker says.
He would not discuss what orders
were being prepared for the major
general or what future assignment he
might expect. But when asked to-
day where General Wood now was
stationed, he replied General Wood
was going back to Camp Funston to
finish up the work in connection with
bis division. He did not intimate how
long he would be at Camp Funston
or what his future orders would be.
1t Is known. however, that the or
ders sending him to San Francisco
have been revoked. 1t is probable
that by the time the work at Funston
is completed the new orders will be
given the general They are not
ready yet, the secretary plainly init
mated, altho he would not discuss the
matter further
