DISEASE SPREAD BY ANIMALS
Scientists and Physicians Have Pre-.
pared 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 d whole host Of
pfttimes fatal ailments of mankind are
tEaceable to the beasts. says Popular
Science Monthly.
The horse Is blamed for spreading
glanders, rabies. lockjaw and other dis
eases Of i've or more syllables. Dogs
and cats are branded as the clrcula-
tors Of rabies, parasitic worms Of diff.
ferent kinds fieas and ticks.
The cow Is the worst offender. The
list Of diseases laid at her barn door
ls headed with tuberculosis and grows
constantly more blood-curdling, until
we wonder why physicians and sclen.
lists consent to the use of milk, butter
and cheese which still lead the dieti-
Hans' list Of nutfitives.
Rats, squirrels and feas spread the
bubonic plague. We are prepared to
believe that lice and bedbugs, files and
mosquitoes are the rapid transit lines
tor yellow fever and malaria. We are
willing to forego the luscious oyster

avoid typhoid fever.

interesting Life Statistics.

On the authority Of experts repre-.
senting forty-three leading life insur-
ance companies IN the United States,
It appears that spinster lives longer
than a married woman. Business wom-
en- live longer than business men. A
woman who takes IN endowment pol.
Icy lives longer than a woman who
takes nm ordinary iife policy. 1t Is not
easy to explain why an unmarried
woman survives matron, nor why a
business woman survives a bust
ness man, but the longevity Of the
endowment woman Is believed to be
due to the determination to live until
the policy natures. VIII power is
hardly less important In many cases
than physique, and must always be
reckoned with. Even In disease man
or woman possesses a natural tend
ency toward health. and cures which
often are attributed to medicine are
really the assertion Of the will,-Cap-

THE FARMER AND
HIS NEWSPAPER

You are a farmer and a subscriber
to the local newspaper. Do you ever
do anything to see that the editor of
that paper devotes just proportion
OF II to agricultural matters? MANY
other farmers take 1t. It is publish
ed in small community. perhaps
the majority of its subscribers are
farmers. They have a right to in
sist that It cater to their interests in
a fair proportion.
The editor makes his living by
giving the people what they want
Sometimes 1t is hard for hin to find
out what that Is, You can help MIN
by expressing your appreciation of
agricultural items which he pnb-
fishes. II he finds that people are
reaindg his rural columns and ap-
preciating them, he will devote more
OF his paper to them. To a large
extent II is up to you. Don't make
him work in the dark Drop him a
letter or call him up on the tele-
phone and tell him that you like his
paper and think that his farm notes
are the best thing in il. He'll ,pfint
more of them. II your rural paper
carries nothing OF rural interest, il
Is your own fault. You haven't made

Joke ON SCHOOL VISITOR
Fortunately Hamilton MabIe Was Well

The late Hamilton W. MabIe, the

phase Of Mr.. Mabie's character, 1t Is
told that when he was q student Mr..
Mabie made an address In which he
told this story:
He had visited a school In Philadel.

students, "Chlldren, what would you

places, step into the aisle, and march
quietly out of the building On the
morning when Mr.. Mable visited the
school, while he was sitting quietly on
the platform, the teacher stepped be-
fore the pupils and said, children,

MAZDA HlIi,

1t Is now more than century since
an English army fought In Italy, and
won the battle Of Mazda over the
French. Napoleon had vowed to con.
quer Sicily, and for that purpose the
French pushed on into Calabrla, and
began to make extensive preparations.
But the English forces for the de-
fense Of Sicily prepared TO deal a blow
on the mainland. A force Of 5000
men landed In the bay OF st. Emphe-
mia, and the battalions of the French
fell before the bayonets Of the Brit
ish. Napoleon's hopes were shattered
at a stroke. But the "daily-breader"

HOW COLD AFFECTS SOUNDS
Numerous Examples Can Be Given,
but Exact Reason 10 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 soft, mellow
tone 1t has and In winter what a
harsh, rough whistle?
Then. again. let us stroll along the
banks Of stream In May. June or
July, and we will observe that the wa
ter will then make gentle, babbllng
sound. while In November or winter
It will, with not great volume, make q
hoarse, gurgling noise.
Still again. II we ramble In the
woods during late spring or early sum-
mes, 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 a roar
Ing 1t makes in cold weather.
Perhaps the trees being with or
without foliage may cause some DIFF
ference, but 1t 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-

LII. Known ef Shooting st.r..

Our knowledge Of shooting stars ex-
tends into the Oldest history of human.
lty, back into prehistoric times. Yet
today no one knows exactly what
shooting star IL, or from where II
comes, An hypothesis proposed In 1875
and generally accepted today, is that
meteorites are fragments broken from
small planetary masses by volcanic ex-
plosions. brought about by a sudden ex-
pansion Of gasses. steam and probably
hydrogen. The broken bits, after their
separation, are believed to arrange
themselves In swarms which cross the
orbit Of the earth in accordance with
dsnnite law. Shooting stars, then, un.
doubtedly come from within our solar
system and are broken bits OF a world
body destroyed BY volcanic events.
Many meteorites have been found In
