YOUR FEARS

What are you most afraid of?
Maybe your supreme dread is
poverty. Or it may be a loaded
gun. Or a certain disease.
Frequently fear centers unex-
plaihably on some simple thing
that has little or nothing in it
to excite terror.
Brave julius Caesar shook and
chartered at lightning. He fed
to the dark depths of caves when
storms gathered.
Alexander the Great was
deathly afraid of cats. The
sight of harmless, purring
pussy caused him to throw fits.
Fear, of all kinds, is believed
by scientists to be due to chemi-
cal abnormalities of the .adrenal
glands, small capsules attached
to the kidneys.
The adrenals of some people
react peculiarly in certain situa-
tions or in the presence of GER
tain objects. The nervous sys-
tenn, emotions and even mental
balance are upset by failure of
the adrenals to harmonic with
the encounter.
Another popularity of the adj
renal glands is their close con-
nection with violent emotions
such as fits Of anger. The per-
son with bad temper has de-
fective adrenal glands.
Aroused by passion, the adren-

THE JUNGLE DWARF

In the Malay jungles Carveth
Wells, explorer, found a dwarf
with remarkable invention.
The dwarf-a little coffee
colored chap-was one of the
lowest forms of human life,
nearly as low as the dog-eating
Igorots of Luzon were a gener-
alton ago before the coming of
the white man.
This dwarf had a fre-making
tool. 1t was a bone plunger,
with leather washer to make it
alright. This plunger was in
serted in a piece of hollow bone
closed at one end.
The dwarf carried pouch
made from the cocoon of a jun
gle moth. In this pouch he had
a supply of finder, dried vege-
table powder-fiber.~
He placed tiny bit of the
finder on the end of the plunger,
put the plunger in its bone
holder, struck it one sharp blow.
Pulling it out, the finder was
afre. ,.
This process, the reverse of n
vacuum, causes combustion by

The jungle dwarf = invention

maker for thousands of years.
Yet it never occurred to them
to apply the principle to any
thing, except making fire.
Rudolf Diesel, German inven-
tor, born in Paris, discovered
the same principle in 1898.
He was quick to see its posi-
bilities in the generating of
power.
