the seat of the soul was in the stomach,

is never. so completely used up as when
his stomach is opt Of order. For the

there is nothing quite so prompt and

Voices by Radio.

Voice transmission by radio waves has passed beyond the experimental stage. The United States bureau of standards says that it is now ac- tually possible to telephone by wire less over as great distance as by the ordinary wire.
 It also states that the quality of the transmitted speech is as perfect as that which comes over the ordin- ary telephone and the same remark applies to music sent by radio.
 This highest scientific authority ex- presses a belief that before very long communication across the Atlantic by radiophOne will be established on commercial basis. When that has been accomplished, person in Philadel- phia or New York will be able at any time to call up and converse with a friend or business acquaintance in London or Paris by paying a stated and moderate rate per five minutes of talk.

Miduet Babies Often Thrive.

Parents whose children are abnor- mally small at birth can take heart, for recent figures show that tiny in fants frequently grow up quite robust, and of normal proportions. Accord ing to the observations of an English doctor, girl baby born 13 years ago, to a Mrs. Warwick of BarrOw-ih-Fur ness, for instance, weighed only one and three-qarter pounds. She now turns the scale at 1o0 pounds, and is an exceptionally healthy and intelli- gent child.
 Even more remarkable is the case of Leonard Merrick, who stands over 6 feet high and weighs 1SO pounds, all brawn and muscle and sinew At his birth, 25 years ago, he weighed only 15 ounces, his head was not much big ger than a billiard ball, the mouth was only just about the size of the end of pencil, and the mothers we'd as high as the shoulder.
 A baby exhibited at one of the meet ings of the British Obstetrical society weighed only 20 ounces and the Medi- cal Times once announced the birth of one that turned the scale at exactly one pound. Both these grew up strong and healthy, and of normal propor- tiOns. In short, a small infant seems likely to do as well as big one, al- ways provided. of course, that it sur wives the perils of babyhoOd.

SEAS OLD TALES
SuperStitions That Are Held by
 Cornishmen.
-f,sttss@1 j. sasssaA ssaA''" A'''ssaA.iA' Phantom Lights and Phantom ships Implicitly Believed In by Sailors
 Who Fear Nothing.
I. ..5jsil < sIa. -... ..:.sss,, f-s~s .

TX s''1 fF'ft -f4saf
 All along the Cornish shores the phantom ship is thoroughly believed in, as also are the phantom lights. Some years ago schooner-rigged vessel made signals of distress to the west of St. Ives bay. A cable that put out reached her, and one of the seamen made a grasp at her bulwarks in order to jump on board; but his hand met nothing solid, and as he tumbled back into the boat the schoon- CT and her sailing lights disappeared in the darkness. Next morning . schooner out of the port of London was wrecked within the same vicinity, and all on board her perished. The phantom lights are seen generally be- fore a gale; the Cornish seamen call them "Jack Harry's lights" and the ship seen resembles the one that is subsequently wrecked.
 The death ship is superstition pc and stumpy bowsprit, she comes in. with all her canvas set, against the wind and tide, and as she turns to reach to seaward again the doomed person dies. Most famous of the tra. ditional stories grouping round the death ship is that of a wrecker, who lived at Tregaseal, beguiling vessels with false lights and doing to death those who escaped the waves. When he lay dying black ship full rigged with all Sail set was noticed coming in upon the land against the wind and tidsi and as the man died she bore ous to sea again in half gale. ''''sss. ss1sstS
 Porthcurno cove, near the Logan stone, has also ship of doom. Some times there is seen when the mista are rising off the marshes black square rigged craft, which stands over to Bodelan and Chygwiden and sud- denly vanishes. Upon whosoever sees her i'll luck and death are sure to fall.
 Near St. Ives, too, is churchyard haunted by an apparition, sight of which entails disaster to seamen. In the sixties of the last century yes sel was wrecked on the coast here. The men who went off to the rescue found on board lady with a child in her arms. She refused to part with her charge, and in drawing her by a rope from the wreck to the boat the child was lost in the raging seas. The lady died through shock and exposure and was buried in the local church. yard. Today her wrath Is said to haunt the shore, whether the day or the night is tempestuous or dark or clear or fine. And on whoever sees her, be he seafaring man, disaster falls.
 The coasts of Cornwall are second to none in the wildness, the variety and originality of their sea supersti- tions. For nowhere else in Europe has the sea taken such a toll of dead, and still takes. Only Cape Ushant, and, perhaps, the Goodwin sands off the coast of Kent, may rank behind Cornwall in the seas colossal ledger of death and disaster.-National Ma rine.

NEWS GOES FAST
Drum-Beat in Africa Has TeIe-
 graphic Speed.
Marvellous System of Signaling Has Long Been One of the Wonders
 -,.. of the World. -,-,rt

News is carried by drum-beat in Africa at a rate as fast as the tele- gpaph, writes A. $. Crawley in the London Daily Mail.
 ''The natives of Central Africa have a wonderful system of signaling from village to village by drum-beat," he says.
 Generally the property of the chief, these official drums, which are many, forming a set of varying size, are as a rule of the species known as incl sion-drum. This is a long, narrow, hollow cylinder, made from a tree trunk, with the ends closed.
 'The drum is placed in either a horizontal or vertical position, the for mer producing the best results Big drums carry more than ten miles.
 By relay message may travel 1000 miles in little more than the velocity of sound.
 "The drum-telephone depends upon an elaborate code of sounds. Flu ropesn travellers often order their din- her and nights lodging at the next village by a drum message. The vil- lagers use 1t as we use postal, tele- graph and telephone service-and there are no charges.
 For the home service the drum plays the part also of the church bell, the clock, the town crier and the daily newspaper. For instance, Rev. James Roscoe, whose African adventures and discoveries have recently be&n report ed, notes that it announced a birth or death, the new moon and the week. ly fast day. s''=sssct sF [ .:ss5;s;s~
 "To help understanding of the mar vicious code, as complete as lan- guage, the remarks of Sir Arthur B. Ellis (writing of West Africa) are in point:
 TO European the rhythm of a drum expresses nothing beyond a re- petition of the same note at different intervals of time, but to native it expresses much more. To him the drum can and does speak, the sounds produced from it forming words and the whole measure of Hhythm a sense
 Thus at dance of companies in one measure they abuse the men of another company .. then the rhythm changes and the gallant deeds of their own company are eXtolled. All this, and much more, is conveyed by the beating of drums, and the native ear, trained to detect and interpret each beat, is never at fault"

PIONEER DIES
Mrs. Agnes Cores. Pioneer Resident of
Prowers County Passes Away
at Holly.

The many Prowers county friends
of Mrs. Agnes Cores of Holly were
much saddened to hear of her death
at her home on Sunday morning. She
was 80 years of age and the actual
resident pioneer of this county, hav-
ing come TO the old town of Granada
with her husband, the late John Cores,
in 1873. They lived in the eastern
part of the county until September
10, 1910, when Mr.. Cores died at the
age of "a years. since then Mrs. Cores
has resided at her home in Holly. She
was born in New York City on Janu-
airy 8, 1899, and came west with her
husband just after the civil war in
which he was soldier. She was Il
woman of strong character, highly es-
teemed and loved by all who knew
her. The funeral was held at Holly
yesterday afternoon and was largely
attended by friends from all parts of
the county.
1t gives some idea of the newness
of the development of this valley to
know that with the exception of per-
haps ten or twelve people the tender
feet that moved here with the boom
in 1886 are now the pioneers.
