chemical reaction follows which Is in- furious.
 The problem Is purely one of chemis- try, as proven by experiments fin the laboratory. If small quantity of white mans blood be mixed in test tube with blood from the veins of an- other white man no reaction follows. But if white blood be mixed with Chinese blood there results a precipite- tlon of albuminous matter upon the bottom of the tube.
 Manifestly when we speak of a per son of white blood" or negro blood we are not using terms that are wholly 1 figurative. The vital fluid in each in stance is chemically different. The blood of Malay IS more different from white blood than is Chinese blood, and | that of negro Is still further removed ] in a chemical sense.
 Now and then there is a disputed case in the courts wherein the point al issue turns upon the question whether or not a person supposed to be white has a touch of the tar brush" | might be decided by just such means as the test tube could furnish.

SELL OLD TOWN HEARsE

The old horse drawn hearse of so many years owned by the town of Cor ham was sold at auction yesterday, to- gether with the runners on which it used to be placel in winter and the house containing it.
 The advent of the automobile in fu- nerals had much to do with disposing of the vehicle, as the Gorham under talxer, Llewellyn Brown, has motor hearse, although the hearse which was auctioned off had been out of use for some time.
 The hearse originally cost good sum of money, but it was bid off yesterday by Lee Plaisted, who will find a use for the running gear. What he will do with the body is not known. but 1t will probably be reduced to the scrap heap Thomas F. Sawyer. a blacksmith al Gorham village, bought the runners and Carl Shaw was the purchaser of the hearse house.
 The sale was in accordance with 2 vote taken at the annual town meeting | last March.-F'rom the Portland Press

That is to say, Turk (and there are many of them in Montenegro makes his ablu- tions more or less like the ordinary American, going without the series of immersions, steamings and rubbings which the term Turkish bath" sug- gests to us. The process of taking a bath is thus described by an American Red Cross doctor now in service in Djakowitska, Montenegro.
 we have private bathrooms here" he writes, though not like ours at home They are most ingenious and of the real Turkish variety. It's just a small room, six by four feet, stone floor, cement walls, no windows. and in one corner a large copper kettle set into the cement and heated by fire built be- heath it from outside. A boy builds it twice day, and in half an hour there is almost boiling water. which can be turned down to the point of comfort with cold. Then follows a regular splashing debauch, as good as shower better than a tub, and to us more lux urious after the heatless. tubless bird baths of Northern Serbia."-New York | Times

ORDINARY TOOLS
 GREAT INVENTIONS

The tools we are accustomed con stantly to handle seem to us such com monplace things, accepted as matters of course, that we fail to realize what wonderful inventions they are.
 The Smithsonian Institutions An nual, about to be issued, tells an inter- esting story about them.
 It appears that the world did with out scissors, cutting cloth with the round bladed knife until 400 B. C., when an Italian genius invented the contriv- ance. Not until two or three centuries later, however, were they fitted to the fingers for convenient grasp.
 The chisel was perfected tool twen ty-five hundred years ago, though made of bronze, and therefore somewhat less efficient for cutting.
 The carpenters saw was at first a blade roughly hacked along the edge. | By 4500 B. c. 1t had acquired regular teeth. About nine hundred years be- fore the birth of Christ an Italian hit upon the idea of giving rake" to the teeth, so that the saw might cut in one direction, instead of scraping.
 The ancient Egyptian iron sickle had a detachable strip of steel teeth.
 Drills with teeth of corundum and gem stones, for cutting quartz and oth- i IOChS, WcI6 OScu III pl OAA NAiOu- sand years ago. The cores taken out by
 these drills were so perfect and clear
 cut that any modern engineer. provided
 with diamond drills, might be proud tt
 turn out such good work.
 Saws with similar fixed teeth, owe eight feet long, were used in Egypt 6 : centuries ago for saving blocks 0
 granite.
 ' Knowledge of this method of makini saws and drills was lost for thousand ' of years. The Romans had no tools o
 the kind, and they were not re-invente , until ,50 years ago.
 ' The principle of the screw was know 5 to the ancient Greeks, but many cen , turies passed before the nut and screN I for fastening was' invented. The screN . to fasten wood first appeared less tha t 200 years ago.

HOW ID ASSIST THE H. |. 1. DOWN
BY S. w. sTRAUs


 (President American Society for Thrift)
 One hears much these days about reduced cost of living. While read justment in the prices of some com modities is taking place, it would be mistake for the public to assume that sweeping reductions in all departments of living costs are imminent. Such an assumption would lead to general prac tices of reckless spending
 It must be borne in mind that the popular drift is toward better standards of living. People are demanding finer homes and better surroundings. We are not living as we did a generation then is listed among the necessities now. Wages and salaries have in creased tremendously in the last 10 years. There is an undersuppiy of all commodities The nations transporta- tion facilities are inadequate. There is an unprecedented shortage of buildings and we are bound to have heavy taxa ton for long period of years.
 These fundamental conditions are | bound to exert a powerful influence in keeping general living costs from going far below present levels, and add em- phasis to the need of thrift practices among the people Of this country. What is really needed is a condition of stabilization-a fixed range of costs of all commodities entering into our business and personal lives. This can not take place when there Is wide spread waste. low production, abnormaI indulgence in luxuries, idleness and dis content.
 We must not only settle down to 2 l period of solid work and careful sayiu 2, but we must study the buying problem with the greatest care.
 There are few of us who could no practice thrift more intensively thar we now are doing.
 If we would do this, the effect or general economic conditions would b, salutary and many of the hardship which are now emphasized in the pub lie mind would be greatly alleviated

CHEMISTRY OF THE BLOOD

In cases where new blood Is required to fill the depleted veins of human being, it is not practicable to use for the purpose the vital fluid of a dog or any other animal, because it would act as a poison, destroying life instead of saving it.
 This is for the reason that the blood of a lower animal is not chemically the same as that of a man. The fact does not seem very surprising, but the recent discovery that the various races of mankind differ in respect to the chemical makeup of their blood is un- deniably curious.
 Experience has proved that it will not do to introduce the blood of a negro | into the veins of a white man or vice versa. And the same remark applies to the Mongol, the Malay and the American Indian. Tn any such cases a
