SIGNIFICANT Storm Warning.

Below the 35th parallel OF latitude
in North America, a tire-colored sun
set in the hurricane season may be a
storm warning to be needed The
United States weather bureau finds
that. even without any particular fall
I'm pressure, such sunset may pre-
cede "a or 4S hours such signs as the
sea swell and the moving of the upper
clouds in unusual directions, and may
be the only early indication of dan
perous tropical storms of small diane
fer forming over the Gulf stream. or
as ofrshoots of larger hurricanes. The
fire-colored sunset is quite different
from the ordinary. 1t is nm awe-in-
spiring spectacle. and is apparent to
the most unframed in weather signs.
An approaching hurricane may affect
the atmosphere. and the light rays
passing through 1t, for more than

Youno Jimmy a Philosopher.


Just now Jimmy, seven years old, Is
about the most interesting person
around the Swedish hospital. according
to nurses. Jimmy was taken there
several days ago for an Infection In
his hand. The nurses tried to keep
him in bed. but as soon as they left
the room Jimmy was out and inves-
tigating the mysteries of other wards.
The other day nurse was astonished
when she entered Jimmy's room and
was greeted with:
"Say, do You know man died in
that room down there last nightT
"Yes, knew it. But how did youY'
the nurse replied.
''Oh. read it on the report sheets"
said Jimmy. "And say, do you know
there was baby born in the room
next to mine?'
We'll for heavens sake. how did
YOU know that?" demanded the nurse.
~ read II on the report sheets"
Jimmy replied. Then he mused:
81 guess there is some truth In the
saying. The Lord giveth and the Lord
tal1eth away"
But the nurse was too astonished
to reply to that.-Kansas City Star.

Marked Increases Shown.

The letter said that, with the excep-
ton of Mississippi, no reliable NOR
bidity statistics were available from
the South. but that Mississippi figures
showed pellagra had doubled i'm that
state In the first six months of 1921.
A memorandum was attached to the
White House statement embOdying the
letter from Doctor Cumming, as fol-
lows:
Information indicates definite in
crease of pellagra this year i'll Ala
bama. Arkansas. Mississippi Okla
homa, Texas and probably North and
South Carolina. Some evidence also
indicates an increase in Georgia. In
Kentucky and Virginin. testimony
points to Il decrease. Conservative es-
Inmates indicate 5000 deaths and 100,
600 cases of pellagra in the country in
1921"
Doctor Cumming said 1t had been
brought out that, in various localities
I'm the South. conditions were such
that the essential foods required to
prevent the development of pellagra
were obtainable only with difficulty
and in some instances We're entirely
beyond the reach of the poorer work
ing people. He explained that TINS
situation had been brought about
largely by the custom of one-crop
farming
