BODY MAKES ITS OWN HEAT
Comes as Natural Result of Chemical
Changes Which Are Constantly
Taking Place.

The heat of our bodies is the direct
result Of the chemical changes which
take place in all the tissues and or
gans Of the body. Brubacker's Physi-
ology says hat leach contraction of a
muscle, each act of secretion, each ex-
hibition of nerve force is accompanied
by the evolution of heat.
'The chemical changes" 1t contin-
ues, "are for the most part of the ma
ture of oxidations, the union of oxygen
with the elements, carbon and hydro
gen, of the food principles either be-
fore or after they have become con-
%stituents of the tissues.
"The ultimate source of the body
heat is the latent or potential energy
in the food principles, which was alb
sorbed from the suns energy and
stored up during the growth of the
vegetable world" When the food
whether this be directly vegetable or
vegetable that has been transformed
into meat by being eaten by an ami
mails digested in bodies it is
reduced by oxidation to relatively
simple bodies, such as urea, carbon
diOxide and water, with a liberation Of
a large portion of their contained en-
ergy, which manifests itself as heat
and mechanical notion"

Bit Of Finnish History.

Finland. which has declared It's in
dependence from Russia, has long
been a buffer state between the latter
and Sweden. After Peter the Great
conquered Finland In 1921 and annexed
its easternmost province. Viborg, Swe-
den made repeated but unsuccessful
efforts to regain this province. Final
ly Alexander I, in 1909. brought all the
Finnish territories under the Mus
covite yoke. Since about 1890, how
ever, Finnish liberties have been
greatly curtailed. The powers Of the
Finnish diet were cancelled and its
constitution practically abrogated. In
1903 a Russian dictator vas appoint
ed and the country flooded with Rus
sian spies; arbitrary arrests and ban
ishments became daily occurrences ;
no means of classification was left I'M
tried. The Firms are of Mongolian
extraction and number about 100000.

THINGS THAT GROW DOUBLE
Freaks of Nature That the Wisest OF
Men Find Some Difficulty in
Explaining.

Nature does some strange things in
the formation of vegetables, nuts and
different kinds of fruits, an exchange
states. 1t is quite common to find two
or more growing together, and natural
lists frequently run across some very
curious freaks.
Double ears Of corn are quite COM
mon. They grow side by side, and are
sometimes of equal size; but usually
one has a little better chance to grow
and gets the advantage over the other.
A double ear on exhibition in one of
the Western states was certainly a Gu
riosity. One side was n variety OF
corn, while the other side IA so diff
ferent that it was hard to believe the
two had grown so close togther.
Double heads of wheat are quite
common, but double grains are scarce
Grains of rye, however, are often dou
BILE, and the same is true of rice.
Onions, radishes, beets, carrots, tur
nips, cabbages and other vegetables
are often found in double form.
The prettiest specimens of double
peaches are those with two seeds, al
they are most distinctly double, beinl
Joined at a point about halfway from
the stem of the blossom ends.

GAS MOST VALUABLE AS FUEL
Comparatively Little 10 Now Being
Used for the Purpose Of Giving d.
rect illumination.

Although gas is being used more
ment for lighting is almost a thing OF
the past. Our modern "gas lights" are
chiefly burners where the light IL not
given out by the gas at all. II is mixed
with air to produce a dim blue flame
with great heating power. This fame
serves to heat a mantle Of min
eral salts white hot, and II Is this In.
candescent mantle that gives the light.
Here the gas is used not for It's light,
but for It's heat; and II Is as a fuel
that gas Is now most valuable, says
the Literary Digest.
According to an address delivered
recently I'm England by President
Harry Jones Of the Institution Of Civ
II Engineers, and reviews by Nature
CLondon), not 3 per cent of the whole
gas output is now used for direct H.
Elimination, so that the name "gas
light company" has become some
thing of a mlsnomer. The use of gas
as fuel, President Jones says, has re-
ceived special development during the
war, n the ready applicability OF gas
appliances to the rapid making of mu-
nitions In emergencies has made them
especially valuable. Mr.. Jones quoted
a high official of the British war Office
as follows:
without the direct aid OF the gas
Industry . IL would have been
perfectly impossible for this country
to wage the campaign of the last three
years, or even for any but n trifing
time resist the overwhelming floods of
enemies that were poured upon 1t.

Of the manufacture and production of
explosives IL took me but a few days

HAS CONFIDENCE IN AMERICA
English Writer Satisfied That coun-
try's Spirit is Undefeated and
~UndefestsbIe.

The soundness at core of the modern
man has had one long triumphant dem
~onstration. Take that wonderful little
story of a certain British superintend-
ent of the pumping station at some
oil wells in Mesopotamia. A valve in
the oil pipe had split and a fountain
of oil was being thrown up on all
sides while thirty yards off and moth
ing between, the furnaces were in full
blast.
To prevent a terrible conflagration
and great loss of life, and a V the oil
wells, it was necessary to urn off the
furnaces. The superintendent, without
a moments hesitation, sprang through
the oil spray, turned off the furnaces,
and died. Modern man has been doing
things like that all through this war.
We Britons are an insular people,
ignorant, for the most part, of any
thing outside our own empire; and 1t
has struck me as "a rather wonderful
tribute to America that one could go
the length of Britain and find hardly
a creature who was not confident that
Americans will display the same en-
durance, bravery and unselfishness
that we have seen displayed by u
own men all these years. Instructive
ly, we know and feel it.
There is something proud In Ameri-
cans as in ourselves, something unde-
feated and unbeatable. 1t comes of
our common cult of freedom and of the
individual conscience, and in both
countries is a growing, not a whitening.

London, March 17.-Debate on
the question of japanese Intervention
in Siberia in the house Of commons
brought from Foreign Minister Bal
four the declaration that German
penetration In Russia must be COM
batted. The allied point of view
was that they should help Russia in
protecting herself against Germany.
Although he did not think that Ger
many would send an army to vladi-
vostock, he said he had absolute faith
in Japans loyalty in carrying out
any decision reached by the allies.

Mr.. Balfour said:
IF Russia had not been at war,
It would have taken many years to
complete the beneficient course Of
the revolution. When autocracy fell
almost without blow. Russia i'm
mediately fell into chaos. 1t is true
to say that the same thing happened
in the French revolution. for there
the effect was not the disintegration
by the migration of France. Pre-
cisely the opposite happened in Rus
STA. The revolution came and all Of
the old divisions between regions
and creeds became marked and prom
inent.
1T must inevitably take time be-
fore we will see the end Of that pro-
cess and to know how clearly how
much of old Russia, II any. ought to
cease to form q part Of new Russia
and how new Russia will be constit-
