Copyriaht Acts.

The first act providing for the copy
right of books and other publications
in the United States was passed 129
years ago. The term of copyright was
then fixed at IA years, with the priv
ilege of renewal for IA years longer.
In 1911 the period was extended to
% years and providing for renewal
for IA years. For nearly hundred
years after the passing of the first
copyright law the protection was ex-
tended only to citizens Of the United
States. In England a similar injus-
tice was practiced upon Americans, al
though the British government did
permit foreigners to take out copy
right, provided their work was first
published in England and the author
was at the time of publication any
where within the British dominiOns.
International copyright conventions
now exist between nearly all nations.
The first copyright act in England was
passed in 1909, giving protection for
IA years and for the authors life If
then living. In 1914 the English law
was amended by extending the period
to % years.

Germ Of LAUGHTER.

Laughter, we are told by all author
tiles on the human emotions, springs
from sense of satisfaction and SUI
periOrity in the laugher over the
laughee. If we may coin the word for
the occasion. The Paris Rose Rouge
publishes a hitherto imprinted essay
on laughter by Stendahl, in which the
following definition occurs:
"What is laughter? It is success
sion Of pulmonary spasms accompa-
MED by peculiar facial expression
which is so familiar that I need not
describe it and by a pleasurable SEN
sation around the chest.
'This physical state arises from a
sudden inspiration to compare our
own worth with someone else's and
resulting in a verdict favorable to our
selves. Laughter thus arises from the
sudden recognition of our own su-
periority."

MAMMOTH CAVE LONG FAMOUS
Has Been Acknowledged One of the
Worlds Wonders, Practically
Since the Year 1909.

The most famous cavern IN America
Is Mammoth cave, in Kentucky, writes
"Niksah'' in the Chicago Daily News.
Mammoth cave was an old Indian ref
uge, and the story of redskin adven-
lures is written plain in the skeletons,
tomahawks and reed torches that have
been found in the cavern depths.
Then, In 1SO9 a white man, pioneer
hunter, followed wounded bear into
the mouth of the great cave, and from
that time on Mammoth cave became
In American estimation the eighth
wonder of the world.
Almost as soon as the white man
discovered the cavern he began to
make practical use of it. Long before
the era of Indian possession bats had
inhabited the cavern halls and in the
course of time their skeletons had &C
cumulated on the floor, especially
near the entrance. These skeletons,
containing nitrate, played an impor-
tant part in the war of 1872, for
nitrate so needed for making explo-
sives, was scarce in the colonies and
the Mammoth cave became the main
source of supply.
When the country settled down to
period of comfortable prosperity,
Mammoth cave became, even more
than 1t is today, a great show place
of America. The caves history Is told
In the names of the various rooms and
galleries. Jenny Lind and other artists
visited the cave and sang or played
the airs that had made them famous
in "Ole Bulls Concert Hall" or other
cavern corridors In room since
named Booths Amphitheater," Edwin
Booth was inspired to declaim some
of the lines of Hamlet before a small
and select audience.

FIND UPAS TREE VALUABLE
Natives of Java Procure Ready-Made
Clothing From Its Branches,
With Little Effort.

One Of the strangest myths is that
which concerns the deadly upas tree"
Of Java, whose poisonous exhalatl0ns
were formerly alleged to kill any man
or animal that ventured into It's neign-
borhood.
Doubtless it had it's origin in some
travellers tale, for the tree in ques-
tion-rather widely distributed in
southern and southeastern Asia--haS
no terrors for the natives of these
countries, who, on the contrary, find
it extremely useful.
1t is the only kind of tree in the
world that produces ready-made cloth
ing. The inner bark is a natural cloth,
only requiring the removal of the soft
cellular stuff in order to render it avail
able for use. A cylindrical section Of
it from a small branch will furnish
leg for a pair of trousers or an arm
for coat, while from bigger branch
the body of the. garment is obtained.

Keep Mind Free From Rust.

A rusty tool of any sort is poor
recommendation for the owner. It is
doubly condemning when that tool Is
the master key of life. The weather
and the carelessness of others may
rust tools of steel. Only the Incidence
of the man himself can allow the mind
to get rusty. It's mark of senility
or premature mental weakness when
the mind that ought to be vigorous
shows signs of rust. No man of good
sense has a right to think he has

tive to higher step. AS higher ground

How Diphtheria Is Contracted

One often hears the expression, my
child caught severe cold which devel-
oped into diphtheria, when the truth
was that the cold had simply left the
little one particularly susceptible to the
wandering diphtneria germ. Ii your
child has a cold when diphtheria is prev
alent you should take him out of school
and keep him off the street until fully
recovered, as there is a hundred times
more danger of his taking diphtherla
when he has cold. When Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is given it quickly
cures the cold and lessons the danger
of diphtheria or any other germ disease
