INDIAN KNEW WHERE TO DIG
Red Mans Action and Finds Have
Considerably Mystsfied Residents
of Missouri Town.

The region about Charlottesville,
Mo-, is rich in lore about hidden gold
and silver and mounds rich with pot
terry. Too, there are great, strange
caves to be found Whereabouts. never
ending subjects for speculation and
wonderment, say the Kansas City
Star.
A few years ago an Indian went to
Charlottesville with several skin maps
and dug up pottery that was worth
several thousand dollars. He offered
$500 to be allowed to dig into, one
mound near the town. However, the
owner decided that if the mound was
worth so much money for explora-
ton purposes he would do the explor-
ing. He did and found nothing.
Some time later the Indian returned
to that section, hired man with a
wagon and team and drove out into
the country to a spot where three
pecan trees grew in a triangle. He
dug down and unearthed two boxes,
so heavy that a man could not lift
one end of either. He had them
shipped away and to this day their
contents is a much discussed mystery
Of that locality.

Wood for Cotton.

Wood is now being converted by a
new process into a substitute for alb
sOrbent' cotton-a product which is be-
ing supplied to the government by one
mill at the rate Of several tons a day.
This absorbent wood is of great value
in covering and stanching open
wounds.
The wood is ground up and then
spun or rolled out into pure white
sheets resembling cotton batting, and
is so light and bulky that only about
1000 pounds of it can be packed in
an ordinary box car. This substance
costs % cents a pound.

French Train Operation Poor.

The French method of train opera
ton differs sharply from the Ameri-
can. In the United States it is Gus
tomary to move the trains by means
of the block signal system, under the
orders Of train dispatchers. In France
the chef de care, sort Of sublimated
station agent, is supreme. He is in alb
solute charge of all trains that pass
through his station and of the allot-
ment of cars within his district. A
through train having reached his sta
ton, it cannot leave without his per-
mission. This practice brings about
such a condition that fewer trains are
operated over a French double-track
line than could be handled over an
American single-track line equipped
with block signals and dispatchers.

BEGAN Life in Coalpit.

Sir Joseph Cook, the minister of the
Australian navy and one of the com
monwealths delegates to the peace
conference, began life in a coalpit in
Staffordshire,' England. While work
ing miner he sought to improve his
education in every way, and in his
spare moments in the pit acquired a
knowledge of shorthand. At the age
of twenty-five he decided to try his
luck in Australia and went to New
South Wales in 1885. He obtained
work in a mine near Sydney and took
an active interest in promoting the
welfare of his fellow-workers. He
then became secretary of the local
miners union and this proved the step
ping-seone to political life.

sTEERED BY SIXTH SENSE.
Exploits Of BIindfoIded Norwegian
Have Proved Puzzle to Expert
Danish Scientists.

Scientists in Denmark are puzzled
by a Norwegian. one Emil Knutscn,
who. although blintlfolded and care
fully watched, steered a steamer
through the intricate channels OF the
harbor of Copenhagen, keeping true
course and adroitly lodging other ves-
sells. He explains this by claiming the
possession of sixth sense
knudsen is a man of middle age.
When he came to Denmark from Chris
tiania, he became at once an object of
interest to both scientist and layman.
He was put through many experiments
by one of the leading nerve specialists
of Europe, and as result the spe-
cialist suggested the trip into the bar
Dor. Knudsen said that ne could guide
himself anywhere without using his
eyes, and steamer was chartered to
put him to.a supreme test. Knudsen
had no knowledge Of the harbor. He
requested that a person knowing the
channel should hold two fnger-tips
against the side of his head. Profess
sOr Fridenreich consented to this, and
himself pressed two finger-tips against
Knudsens temples.
The man handled the wheel without
a sign of nervousness or uncertainty.
It was impossible for him to see, yet
he took more than a dozen sharp cor
ners and followed a zigzag course
throughout. All the scientists who
witnessed the demonstration said that
Knudsen possesses a mysterious pow
err that actually may be sixth sense.

Do Not Use Canning Compounds.

Canning compounds sold under vari-
Gus names for use in home canning are
often harmful to health and should
never be used by housewives, say the
specialists of the bureau of chemistry,
United States department of agricul-
ture. These preparations, which are
usually in powdered form and contain
salicylic acid or boric acid, are un-
necessary, since fruits and vegetables
can be kept for long periods in perfect
condition without any chemical pre-
servatives whatever if proper methods
of canning are followed.
The federal food and drugs act pro-
hibits the use of harmful preservatives
in foods which come within it's jurisdic-
ton. The food laws Of nearly every
state in the union forbid the sale with
in the state of foods which have been
preserved with harmful substances.
Although neither the federal nor state
laws apply to foods canned in the home
and consumed there, it would seem
that the housewife would not know
ingly use, in the foods she preserves
for her family, substances that are
prohibited by law in foods for sale be-
cause the substances are injurious to
health.
The department Of agriculture has
issued bulletins that give specific direc-
tions for the canning and pre-
serving Of fruits and vegetables with
out the use of preserving powders or
canning compounds. These bulletins
may be obtained without cost upon APP
plication to the Department Of Agri-
culture, Washington, D. G.
