AirpIanes in Mining Operations.

1t is predicted that the airpIane
and the dirigible will prove great
stimulus to the mining industry in pre-
senting a means of getting material
and men to and from locations which
are known to be rich with ore and
which are at the present time inacces-
sible There are many such places
known to exist. but the cost of build
ing roadway to them would be so
great as to be prohibitive. Attention
to this phase of the subject has been
recently attracted by a report made
by Doctor Lyon, supervisor of the min
ing stations for the United States bu-
reau of mines. BY this means Il regu-
Tar communication could be main
tanned with sections which are not to
be reached by any ordinary means. 1t
is also suggested that the same means
might be of great value for getting res
cue apparatus to the scene Of mining
disasters.

Mental Atmosphere.

Take time to study your own tastes,
your own desires, and find out what
you really react to pleasurably, and
why; then by the simple process of
selection and elimination you can
gradually evolve the right atmosphere
for your present condition II will
change as your mental life changes.
But do not try to impose the results
of your experiments on someone else,
for what might rest and inspire you,
with your individual interests and am
billions, might irritate someone else
beyond endurance. Because of the
large part that previous association
plays in the Interpretation of any sense

mental atmosphere" with natural
objects, each individual becomes a law
unto himself. "Know thyself."-Ex-

New Aerial REGULATION,

Toy balloon or runs with his Japanese
kite against the wind may offend

cautions act A new war regulation is
sued in February. 1920, gives power to
the naval or military authorities in the
commonwealth TO declare any area a
prohibited area for the flying of bal
looms during any specified period.
Balloon" is defined as anything up to
an airship. The reason for this all-in-
elusive regulation was primarily the
flight from Sydney to Melbourne of Sir
Ross Smith, the airman who crossed
the world from London to Darwin.

Casino Forest Fire Impractical.

ONE THING THEY OVERL OOKED
British Military Authorities Forgot the
Humble Printer In Desire to Pre-
serve War Secrets.

The marquis Of Harrington tells an
episode from the war days when the
spy scare was at its height, according
to a writer in the Halifax Chronicle.
Certain confidential information that
the military authorities wanted to keep
absolutely secret was sent round by
trusted couriers in locked dispatch
boxes, with elaborate precautions Of
signing and countersigning and check
ing every stage. No one below the
rank of major general was entrusted
with the knowledge, and even these
we're bound by tremendous oaths Of
secrecy.
After time it was found that these
weighty documents. which were Circu-
lated in printed form. were being set
up by ordinary printers, who We're un-
der no obligation to preserve secrecy,
and, in fact. took no precautions what
ever against leakage. However, moth
ing did leak out, but the military man

Illegal Possession
Case at Municipal Court

Joe DaisIe of Augusta Arraisnec
Monday Mornins-PIeads Not
Guilty, But Defense Offers Nc
Testimony-Judee Finds DaigIe
Guilty and Orders Him To Furnish
Bonds for Appearance at Superior
Court
Charged with illegal possession of
intoxicating liquor with intent to
sell, Joe Daigle of this city was ar
raigned before Judge Robert A. Cony

a knapsack on his shoulders and was

ted to them that he had made the

personal use. The deputy sheriffs
were in an automobile. and they took

pearance in the court yesterday.

BETTER Than CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. These little olive
colored tablets are the result of DR..
Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. It is best not to
take calomel. Let DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets take its place.
Headaches, dizziness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
