Strong, traiDhtforward Advice to
Thin, UndeveIoped Men and Women.

If you are thin, scrawny and unde-
veloped, if your face is peaked and
your cheeks and neck exhibit unsighty
Eollows, it's almost certain that your
nervous system is at the bottom of the
trouble. You can eat three, yes, four
substantial, fat producing meals a day,
but as long as your stomach has an
insufficient supply of nerve force this
food you eat will pass out of the body
with little if any benefit.
In order to assimilate properly the
nourishing food you eat, and convert
1t into healthy tissue and fat the
nerves that control the process of
digestion and assimilation, must be
put in first-class shape and until that
Is done you might just as well quit
trying to put on flesh. Your system
is starving for something that will
turn the food you eat into healthy
stay-there flesh, and it can only be
done n one way-by correcting faul-
ty nervous digestion

sion over the entire Parish in
the future. Mr.. Porter urges
the parents or guardians of the
educable children to work in
conjunction with him, so that on
Inc first day, unless sickness in
terferes that the enrolment
will be complete. The State
Compulsory Educational Law
is one of the best pieces of legis-
lation ever enacted by the Gen.

prevailing in many communities
and it is the intention of the Off
Gals at the head of the schools
of this State to see that the law
is enforced in every particular.

feet breaking both arms at the
wrist. Had it not been that his
fall was broken, having struck
another man when reaching the
ground he would probably have
been killed outright. The drill

bruised also and had to receive
medical attention. Wallace was

Ancients Did Not Temper Copper.

The general belief that the ancients
were able to harden or temper copper
to greater extent than is now posi-.
BILE is myth in the opinion Of the
United States geological survey, De.
partment of the Interior. It Is well
known to metallurgists that processes
Of rolling will harden copper to some
extent and that it can also be hardened
by the addition Of other metals. Speci.
mems Of ancient so-called tempered
copper that have been examined have
invariably proved to be no harder than
copper that Is manufactured to-day, OF
to be simply an alloy Of copper and
some other metal.

; THE AIRSHIP DISASTER.

Cables from London an
nounced the destruction of the
dirigible ZR-2 during its trial
flight yesterday, with heavy loss
of life. The ZR-2, purchased
from England by the American
j government, was partially
manned on its fatal flight by an
American crew, sent abroad to
bring the giant balloon home.
/ Details of the disaster are in
complete as this is written, but
it appears that there are survi-
vors who will be able, no doubt,
ito explain its cause. All that
the earlier bulletins tell us is
that, during the course of an
apparently smooth and success
| full flight, a series of explosions
took place while the ship was at
a great height, causing her to
collapse and fall into the Hum
Der river.
limitations that all was not
well with the ZR-2 have been
coming to us for several days.
When her, American crew was
sent over, it was thought that
the voyage to America would be
started before now. But there
were repeated postponements of
the final trials. delay followed
delay. The explanation that
favorable weather was awaited
did not stand wholly convincing,
and very recently there have
been hints that something might
be wrong with the ship itself.
News of its collapse in mid-air,
with tragic consequences to its
crew, follows SO swiftly that
both British and American gov
ernments no doubt will insist
upon the most searching inves-
tigation.
The ZR-2 was considered the
latest word in dirigible construc-
ton along the lines marked out
by the British engineers. She
differed radically in design, as
we understand it, from the Yep
pelins but was claimed to pos
sess certain important advant
ages over the German type Of
lighter-than-air craft. The gen.
eral confidence in her successful
performance was demonstrated
by the easy assumption, on both
sides of the ocean, that she
would negotiate the long trans
atlantic voyage without hitch or
serious mishap. The Americans
sent over to pilot her home have
been impatientlv awaiting the
word to 90, and chatting at the
delays ordered by the British
engineers charged with direc-
ton of the 'stuning up and trial
flights.
An official report on the
causes of the disaster will be
anxiously awaited. both by the
general public and the aeronau-
teal engineers. Meanwhile the
loss of the gallant men who
composed her crew on that last
and fatal flight will be widely
mourned. They met death in
the performance Of duty, pay
ing with their lives a part of the
price of mans yet incomplete
conquest of the air. Times

Regarding our friend Knight,
will say that you were correct
in stlrmising it was John. He

he got to Buckeye, Arizona.

noon, and talked cheerfully to
the restaurant-keeper and his
wife, saying that he was going
to leave, making a night trip
across the desert, and would be
in California in a couple of DAYS.
Two days thereafter some
cowboys going to a windmill
found Johns car stuck in the
sand, the electricity all burned
ont and the car pretty badly
abused. His suit case was in
the car. but his hand satchel.
containing valuable papers was
gone.
Reward of $1,000 have been
offered for his body, but MOTH
ing has been heard of John
from that day to this.
He had two very large dia-
