Day, November IL,

November IL, Armistice day, has
been set aside as legal holiday by
presidential proclamation, "as a
mark of respect to the memory of
those who gave their lives in the
late World war, as typified by the
Unknown and Unidentified Ameri-
canSOldier, who is to be buried in
Arlington National cemetery on that
day."
President Harding, in his procla-
nation, says
Il do hereby recommend to the
governors of the several states, that
proclamation be issued by them
calling upon the people of their
respective states to pause in their
usual pursuits as mark of respect
on this solemn occasion.
"And, in order that the
sOlemnity of the occasion may be
further emphasized, 1 do hereby
further recommend that all public
and church bells throughout the
United States be tolled at intervals
between 11.45 a. m. and 12 o'clock
noon of the said day, and that from
IL o'clock noon to two minutes past
that hour, Washington time, all de-
vout and patriotic citizens of the
United States indulge in a period of
silent thanks to God for these valor-
GUS lives and of supplication for His
divine mercy and for His blessing
upon our beloved country"

RELIEF FOR HEAT SUFFERERS
English Savant Who Probably Knows
Offers Some Advice on the Prob
lem of Keeping Cool.

The obvious expedient of avoiding
exposure to the sun, stimulating"
foods and drinks and the use of dark
and heat-retaining garments is not
always sufficient to keep the human
body cool. In spite of these precau-
tions. many persons suffer from heat
languor ("thermal debility'), to the
detriment of their health and eff
cheney.
1t is nearly one hundred years since
the Silesian peasant Priessnitz rein
troduced the curative use Of cold. One
Of his procedures was to immerse the
back of his head in shallow vessel
of cold water.
We know now that external cold Is
a powerful stimulant to the nerve cen
ters at the base of the brain. which
govern the heart and breathing and
regulation Of body heat. In hot sum-
mers heat is insidiously piled up in
the tissues, and sometimes thermal
debility passes on to thermal fever or
"heat stroke"
Anybody may prove for himself the
refreshing coolness produced by bath
ing the nape of the neck and the spine
and the inner side Of the arms with
ice-cold water. AS regards the pre-
vention and cure Of heat-strOke, the
experience of the troops In hot eli
mates has shown the same efficacy of
cold when applied on more exten-
sive scale.-From Letter In the Lon
don Times

Ereiuht by Air.

England is credited with being the
foremost nation in aviation. In 10
months the record shows, $1,000 pas
sengers and 100000 pounds Of freight
Travelled 100000 miles in $4,000
flights. The transocean passenger
schedule, which was SO confidently
predicted al almost ready several
years ago, is still remote, but 1t is a
fact that round trip from London to
Paris (574 miles) can be made in six
hours instead Of twenty-four, at cost
of about 500 for plane, against $40 by
rail. The aero company which Is op-
Grating a passenger service between
Key West and Havana, charges $3.50
for one passenger one way from New
York to Boston (260 miles).

France Dooms Wild Bears.

There are still considerable num-
bers' of wild boars and even wolves
in France.
This was revealed in a recent dis
cussion in the chamber of deputies
on the estimates for the ministry of
agriculture. Two deputies affirmed
that wild boars cause much damage,
while third constituted himself their
champion, asking If it was not in
tended to leave few.
Before the war boar hunting was
favorite, although a somewhat dan
gerous, form of sport, and at Christ
mas time it was usual for boar steaks
to be served in restaurants. Even
last Christmas one or two bOars made
their way to the kitchens of restaur-
ants and hotels.

Many people find that during this
month, catarrh is so aggravated by
sudden changes of weather, indiscre-
tions in the matter of clothing. and
other things. that 1t becomes con-
stantly troublesome.
There is abundant proof that ca
tarrh is a constitutional disease. 1t
IL related to scrofula and consump-
tion, being one of the wasting dis
eases. Hoods Sarsaparilla has shown
that what Is capable of eradicating
scrofula, also relieves catarrh, and
in the prevention of consumption.
1t is not easy to see how any suf-
ferer can put OF taking this medicine
in view of the widely published
record Of its remarkable successes
It is called by It's proprietors Ameri-
cas- Greatest Medicine for Americas
Greatest Disease-Catarfh.
In some cases there is occasionally
need Of q thorough, cathartic or gen.
tie laxative. and in these cases Hoods
pills are taken with very satisfactory
Fesuits.--Advt.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1921

The stage is set for the confer
ence of nations to convene at WASH
ington next Friday, when mo-
mentous questions will be consid-
cred. Much is expected of the con-
ference, and much may come OF it,
but there is a wide range of opinion
of what it should accomplish or
seek to accomplish. At one ex-
treme are those who would see all
armies and navies scrapped; at the
other, the fire-eaters or the alarm
lists, who profess to see war clouds
lowering to east and west Of us.
But the men who will decide the
acts of the conference are of neither
of these extremes. They are men of
large vision, and they see no insur-
mountable obstacles in the way of
real constructive action at the con-
ference. What they hope to achieve
are a satisfactory agreement on
reasonable limitation of ornaments
justified by the necessities of each
nation in the way of adequate de-
fence, the adjustment of the most
important key" problems in the
Far East, and guarantees for the
protection of weaker nations
against aggression or exploitation
by stronger nations. If progress,
no matter how slight, can be made
toward these things, the conference
will not have failed.

Rabbit Leather.

Samples of rabbit leather recently
sent to this country from Australia
have been examined and tested by the
United States bureau of standards,
with view to determining the utiliza-
bility of such skins for shoe uppers or
other purposes.
The leather was found to have only
about one-fourth the strength of calf.
skin and to tear rather easily. 1t has a
great advantage in point of cheapness
and might perhaps serve for uppers of
fancy shoes that are not expected to
stand much wear. The experts are of
the opinion that 1t could be used to
advantage for Innings and novelties.

What of the Future?

The height of achievement in
last Saturday, when President Hard
ing, through the new wireless sta
tion on Long. Island, N. Y, sent a
message heard at all the far
corners of the earth wherever
a wireless receiving station is
installed. 1t marked the open
ing of the wireless station near
Port Jefferson, l.. l., that will make
America the wireless nerve center
of the world
At the telegraph room in the
White House at Washington, fingers
tapped out message sent by Presi-
dent Harding to the world. 1t sped
to the power station on Long Island,
and without the intervention of a
human hand, was transformed into
a wireless message. Blue flames
shot from points of copper, and four
great keys like giants tuning forks
caught up the White House call
and relayed it with a mighty rasp-
ing to twenty-five miles of silicon
bronze cables swung between six
skeleton steel towers, each rising
410 feet above the ground. A hun
dred thousand volts of electricity
crammed into these wires crashed
the message out into the ether
Japan, 1000 miles away, pricked
up its ears. Sydney, 5000 miles
away, heard the signal Norway,
Germany, England and France, and
every other country where there is
a, wireless station, including South
Africa, got it, too. So they lis
tened, all around the world. and
heard message to the world from
the President Of the United States.
Travelling at the speed of light,
3S6,000 miles a second, the waves
set in motion at Rocky Point had
spread over the globe in one-seventh
OF a second. In hardly less time
than that, messages began to come
piling back from the distant listen
ing posts. Norway reported first,
then the great tower at Nauen, Ger
many, then England and France
The ships of the navy and of COM
merce also sped their acknowledg-
ments.
. The more distant nations will
have to cable theirs, or relay them,
for although they can receive Rocky
Points wireless messages. they have
not a transmitting station capable
of sending so far.
So much for the present of wire-
less telegraphy: its future surpasses
the imagination.
