Horsas Versus Elephants,

rests made to determine the respec-
tive pulling power Of horses, men and
elephants showed that two horses
weighing 1000 pounds each, together.
pulled $3.50 pounds, or $50 pounds
more than their combined weight. One
elephant weighing 10000 pounds pulled
$3.50 pounds. or $3.50 pounds less than
It's weight Fifty men, aggregating
$500 pounds, pulled $3.50 pounds, or
tuS' nS much ns the single elephant,
but like the horse, they pulled more
than their own weight. One hundred
men pulled 10000 pounds.

Dead Air and Disease,

DR.. Leonard Hill, whose experiments
few years ago proved to the world
that 1t Is not impure air but still, hui
mid, dead air that induces disease, de-
hvercd recently a lecture on infant
mortality before the Royal Society OF
Arts. In this he said that babies
died from being too much clothed as
we'll as from being Improperly fed.
They should not be kept too warm or
too quiet, but should he allowed at
times to be quite naked and should
be played with just to give them cx-
crcisc.
