Scientists will hardly accept the
sta ement at the inquest on a man
killed by lightning that AN exact Inn
preston Of the tree under which he
was sheltering" was found on the VIC
TINS body. It Is incredible that even
the power Of, lightning flash is Of
sufficient intensity to imprint an I'm

The most reasonable explanation Of
these phenomena is that the lightning
causes extravasation of blood from
the blood vessels beneath the skin
thus rendering visible the treelike ram
ihcations of the veinous system. It
would have been interesting to note
under what kind Of tree the unfor-
tunate man was sheltering. For, If
one must take shelter ut is far wiser
to take soaking) ones chances Of
safety depend largely upon the sort Of
tree beneath which one elects to stand.

The instructions always issued to
such expeditions are not to take risks.
Yet the collector in his zeal and en-
thusiasm for his work would scarcely
be human If he followed these instruc-
lions to the letter, and he frequently
takes risks of many kinds. In such
expeditions of the museum it is not re-
called that any Of their men have been
dangerously injured. They have had,
to be sure, attacks of mountain sick
ness which is sort of fever. =, "
Looking for fossils is serious work.
The prospecting must be carefully
done If big skeleton is to be re-
moved good deal of digging is re-
quired, and this must be done with
extreme care. Sometimes it Is neces-
sary to blast ledge. The work of

but easy. Big specimens must be re-
moved in several blocks, and great
care must be used in handling them

they frequently must travel from L.

nation.

Deafness Is tribulation., but It's eff
fects are more psychological than
physical. Deaf men as a rule have less
difficulty in getting Jobs than have
men with more obvious handicaps. The
real handicap in deafness Is that it is
more calculated to inspire impatience
than sympathy, and as consequence,
Z deaf u men grow suspicious, irritable
and complaining. The deaf man is a
trial to himself and to the world, and
he walks quite alone. Communication

Betty, slx-year-old Columbus girl,
was greatly interested in Christmas
preparations, and her demands on
Santa Claus were enough to reduce
that person to bankruptcy: In addi-
ton to the. gifts Of Santa, the little
girl each Christmas received a present

Rat-kiIIers.

Cats rarely eat rats, but attack and
kill them ruthlessly. Dogs Of certain
breeds are the implacable enemies of
rats. Other enemies are weasels, fer
rets, the larger owls and bull snakes.
In cities cats and dogs are the best
protection. Traps are excellent, but
require to be handled with gloves rub
bed with fish oil, as the rats detect
instantly any trace of human smell
and leave the trap alone. Poison is
effective, but it has one serious draw
back; the rats are likely to die in
their holes. .4

Early Life on Earth.

Animal life in the carboniferous
epoch was almost wholly aquatic. The
waters teemed with creatures multi
tudnous. Insects swarmed every
where 1t was particularly the age of
cockroaches. Huge reptiles crawled
sluggishly over. the wet sands of the
seashore. AS yet there we're no birds
and no animals. Millions Of years to
pass before the world would be ready

Work Touether to- Take Fish.

The best example of company fish
ing is furnished by some Of our North
American fresh-water pelicans Flocks
of 80 to 80 pelicans may sometimes be
seen fishing in the very shallow wa
tiers Of lake shore or drying river.
They spread out in thin semi-circular
skirmish line in the water few inches
deep and then advance with Tapping
wings toward still more shallow wa
fer, driving schools ( of frightened
fishes before them. Soon the fishes
are so crowded the pelicans can wade
in among them and scoop them up in
the great pouches beneath the beaks.
Such dipnet fishing is very effective.

"oSAAA6IOA. Auc SApeUltlOu VI Lu0,
American Museum which for several
months has been searching for the
skeletons of ancient animals in a sand
stone quarry at Agate, Neb., has dis
covered many bones of the little rhinoc-
eros. The deposits containing these
bones have been cut into blocks which
win be shipped to the museum, where
the bones will be placed on exhibition.
The little rhinoceros, or dicerather-
ium, as ne is scientifically called, was
about the size of a half grown calf
and roamed at large during the mio-
Gene period. He had two horns side
by side in front of the skull instead
of one or of one behind the other. The
expedition has been working under the
direction Of Dr. William D. Matthew,
curator Of fossil vertebrates at the
museum. <.
Few persons have any idea of the
vast amount of care and work that
large scientific institution takes in
planning and preparing for an expedi-
ton which seeks the remains Of these
ancient beasts in the hope that they
will shed additional light on the dim
and distant evolutionary periods of an
early world. They have various objec.
tives in view. Sometimes they are
planned to fill in a gap of scientific
knowledge.
Must Know Many Things.
It may be desirable to know what
animals inhabited a particular region
which has remained UNEMPLOYED, or to
find out what kind of animals lived in
particular geological epoch, or to
trace the ancestry of some species OF
animals back to geological times.
scientist setting out on such an expedi.
.tion must have as a preliminary a
general knowledge Of geology, and of
the geology of the region which he
is to explore He must be acquainted
with the areas where the formations
of the geological period he is to visit
are to be found. He needs to have
many records Of fossils that have been
discovered in the past. Scientific insti-
tutions have many observations Of the
occurrence Of fossils in regions in
which they are interested.
One of the most remarkable fossil
birds ever discovered was brought to
light three years ago in the Big Horn
basin in an area which had been thor
oughly explored by fossil hunters since
1891, and yet practically no trace Of
this great bird know as the diatryna
had been found there.
American museum explorers have
gone over many old stamping grounds
which had been searched again and
again, and have discovered something
new.
It is important that such kind of
prospecting and mining be done by
trained men. An inexperienced man
who undertakes to remove such skele-
tons is pretty sure to ruin them, and
the chances are that he will render
them entirely worthless
To become successful collector, it is
not so much matter of the technic
of collecting as it is a practical field
knowledge Of formations. The collector
must have trained judgment in order
to know what prospects are worth in:

he must know that it has merit.
This is what DR.. J. H. Wagner, prom

to say about DR.. Hartman's well-known
remedy, PE-RU-NA: II have used Pc

given it to others for catarrh, bloating

proved a success in all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak

DR.. Wagner, out of the fullness of his
own personal experience, for the good of
all sick and suffering, recommends q
medicine which he knows to be good.
