that win command big radius Of action and per

The tropics created another set of difficulties
The airplane fabric and glue fixtures were found
to be OF perishable nature In the climate, and
new substances Of greater resistance to the In
tense heat were introduced. But today an air
plane, adaptable for any hemisphere Is within
the range OF science. and soon the flying explorer
should be on most routes leading to the unknown
beyond the regions Of civilization His story will
be an imperishable and thrilling chapter of the
history of nature In her widest haunts.
Aerial exploration Costly
But aerial exploration is not to be lightly I'M.
dertaken There Is the cost Of airplanes, hangers,
landing places and maintenance OF personnel. Elk
ploration is stationary thing at times. and bases
must be erected. 1t is one thing to fly over an
untrodden region and quite another to explore 1T
Science demands much knowledge from the modern
explorer Possibly nation, or nations could
only furnish the necessary means to provide the
material for the aerial highway and stations which
are indispensable to satisfactory exploration In
remote quarters Of the earth. Hundreds OF miles
OF Arabia which no westerner has seen have been
flown over BY European officers during the war.
Members Of these military expeditions have dis
, covered most Interesting ruins of half-buried
cities. But this work was done from properly
equipped depots. Military bases and aerial post
stations may prove the jumping-of points for fur
Their expeditions under state aegis. Desert flying
would lead to the linking up of the old caravan
from the beaten paths the wastes adjoining would
be searched for historic ruins. III
The fact remains that the aerial pioneer will be
the first in many virgin fields OF science and his
tory, and viii In his quests find the wine OF adj
venture In bumper draughts.

WHERE MOST SICKNESS
BEGINS AND ENDS
BY FRANKLIN DUANE, M. D.

1t can be said broadly that most
human ills begin in the stomach and end
in the stomach. Good digestion means
good health, and poor digestion means
bad health. The minute your stomach
fails to properly dispose of the food You
eat, troubles begin to crop out in various
forms. Indigestion and dyspepsia are the
commonest forms, but thin, impure
blood, headaches, backaches, pimples,
blotches, dizziness, belching, coated
tongue, weakness, poor appetit::. sleep
lessness, coughs, colds and bronchitis are
almost as common There is but one way
to have good health, and that is to put
and keep your stomach in good order.
This is easy to do if you take DR.. Pierce's
Colon Medical Discovery. 1t is a won-
derful tonic and blood purifier, and is so
safe to take, for it is made of roots and
herbs. DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y,
stands behind this standard medicine,
and it is good to know that so distin-
guished physician is proud to have his
name identified with it.
Here is what Mr.. A. r. Brown, OF
Meridian, Miss, saws: "Will say /
