In Africa a handful of salt will pur-

Northern Lights.

The name Aurora Borealis" was
first used by Cassendi, who. in 1921.
observed one in France and wrote a
description OF it. The aurora" is Pc
riodic in its manifestations, the finest
display being at intervals of 60 years.
and less marked ones at intervals of
ten or eleven years. 1t is asserted
that the greater and lesser displays
correspond with the increase and de-
crease of spots on the sun. This
phenomenon is generally manifested
in the following way: A dim light APP

light and gradually assumes the shape
of an arch having pale yellow color,
with its concave side turned Garth
ward. From this arch streams of light
shoot forth, passing from yellow to
green and then TO brilliant violet.

Famous conquistadones.

Santo Domingo is rich ia historic

permanent settlements OF American
soil. Here Columbus founded various
colonies. and Santo Domingo city be-
came his favorite of all the New
world. IL was here that he spent
some Of the happiest time Of his life,
and here that he was reduced to pris-
on by his political enemies. and from
here he was sent In chains and dis
grace 10 Spain. The old tower where
he was imprisoned still remains. and
bis bones lie IN the great cathedral OF
Santo Domingo city.
In this oldest city OF the New
world one still sees the remains of
the first church built in America. Its
foundations were laid in 1902. Here
is the house where CorteZ kept the
court records before he had ever
heard of Mexico. From here Ponce
de Leon set out in his search for the
Fountain of Youth. Here lived Piz-
FARO before he went TO Panama, and
sailed down the west coast TO con-
quer the Inca empire. Everywhere
one turns he encounters old land
marks where the famous conqIis-

the New world.

SIMPLE IDEA FOR CALENDAR
by Which II Is Easy to Find
Date Wanted.

The following simple method of
finding the day of the week for any
date in. a month, when the first day
Of January is known, has been hand
ed down among us for two centuries.
Supposing that the new year be-
gins on Wednesday, we place that day
opposite the latter A, with the follow
ing days opposite the next six letters.
and with Tuesday opposite G. The
first days of the II months are OPP
posite the initials of this sentence !:
AT Dover dwell George Brown, Esq,
good Carlos Finch and David Friar.'
For the ordinary year the initial
days of the months, as above, are
Wednesday. Saturday, Tuesday.
Thursday, Sunday. Tuesday, Friday,
Monday, Wednesday, Saturday and
Monday.
AS the first, eighth, fifteenth, TWEEN
ty-second and the twenty-ninth day in
each month are on the same day of
the week, it follows that the 1st of
December and the Doth fall on 4 and
the 31st on A. The first and last day
OF each year, excepting leap year, fall
on the same day of the week. For
leap year use the seven letters, be-
ginning A with the week day that
stood originally for b on New Years
day.-Edward II. Williams Jr.. IVES

Hints From Gladstone.

Gladstone was once asked to give
some suggestions for platform aspir-
ants and it is said that it was atten-
ton TO these rules which in no small
degree accounted for Gladstone's own
power in "swaying audiences: /.
Study plainness of language. always
preferring the simpler word. 2.
Shortness of sentences. 3. Distinctness
of articulation. 4. Test and question
your own arguments beforehand, not
waiting for critics or opponent. D.
Seek a thorough digestion of and
familiarity with your subject, and rely
mainly on these to prompt the proper
words. G. Remember that if you are
to sway an audience. you must. be-
sides thinking out your matter, watch
ii all along.

there is difficulty in avoiding t.
Bladder weakness. most folks call
il. because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple all
ments to overcome. Get about four
ounces Sof Jad Salts from your phar-
macist and take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast. con-
tinue this for two or three days. This
will neutralize the acids in the urine
SO it no longer is a source of irri-
tation TO the bladder and urinary or
gans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive. harmless,
