No One Else Knew.

From his farm Judge B ank was in
the habit OF supplying the preachers
Of all the churches with -four, corn, hay
and vegetables free of cost He also
kept the country supplied with venison
from the herd OF deer which he kept
for many years. He built big smoke
house in the rear of his grounds.
One night, unseen himself, he saw
man emerge from the smokehouse
with side of pork on his shoulder.
He recognized the intruder, but said
nothing. A week afterward the fellow
approached him saying: "Judge, I'M
derstand you had some meat stolen
from your smokehouse ?"
The old judge raised his hand dep
recatingly and said: "Sh! No one on
earth knows anything about that but
you and me-"

Her Last Chance.

A circus, says Spare Moments, paid
flying visit to a small Scotch town
not long ago. The price of admission
was sixpence, but children under ten
years OF age were allowed to enter for
half price. II was Edith's tenth birth
day, and in the afternoon her brother,
Angus, aegd thirteen, took her to see
the show.
When they arrived at the door he
put down ninepence and asked for two
front seats.
"How old is the little girl?" asked
the money taker doubtfully.
SWELL" replied Angus, "this is her
tenth birthday, but she was not born
until rather late In tho afternoon"
The money taker accepted the state
ment and handed him the tickets; but
II was q close shave.

Work of Acetylene.

Popular as acteylene has become
during the past two decades as a gas,
the uses Of the medium are really In
their infancy. About eighteen years
ago calcium carbide-the principal
source Of acetylene-was prepared for
general use. Nevertheless, the gas
has been employed mainly for light
ing. Engineers throughout the world
have applied themselves Of late years
to the problem Of extending the ap-
p'ication Of the gas, with results that
seem likely to revolutionize industries
requiring a high degree Of heat.
Instances OF these wonders have
been given by means of motion picture
films. "No more rivets," was the title
Of one picture. 1t revealed a workman
welding together two pieces Of steel
by means Of an acetylene blower. The
heat generated was $500 degrees at
least, and by its means the two pieces
Of steel were simply welded together.
There followed picture showing q
workman cutting out designs in steel BY
means OF an acetylene blower as easily
as cutting paper, with the advantage
that he mechanically followed the
draf:sman's plan. The draftsman's de-
sign on paper IS laid on q machine.
Over it the workman simply runs q
wheel, following the drawing. BY a
mechanical arrangement tn. blower
moves cvactly with the &..e,, but over
a sheet OF steel. With almost incon-
ceivable ease, fantastic designs are
cut out OF the solid steel. The most
intense heat it'll the blower Is secured
when oxygen is mixed with tho acety-
lene.
An example Of the uses TO which
this combination can be put xas shown
in the cutting Of solid block OF armor
plate sixteen inches thick. The actual
cutting took four minutes. Cutting
boiler tubes was anothe. Of the uses
to which acetylene was applied. By
means Of the compass torch, the holes
we're seen to be cut with absolute
exactitude. This operation can be
mastered, II Is said, by any intelligent
workman in few hours, 50 simple is IT,.

my first campaign delegations Of Dem

Only Republicans could afford them

an automobile from a Republican to
take me to my hotel or to the place Of
speaking. Why, rode around for
years in Republican automobiles, until
finally along came Henry Ford and

Length of Human Life.

Records OF the sixteenth centur,
show that the average .ens.h Of human
life at that time was about twenty years
II is also known that there was very
little increase until about fifty years ago
when modern sanitary measures were
first instituted, and later when the
germ theory Of disease was established
as fact, and surgical antisepsis OBJ
served
Now the average life in the United
States is more than forty years and
rapidly going up. In Sweden, where
the most modern scientific measures
are applied, the average length OF
human life has risen to more than
ffty-three years. 1t is certainly OF
great Importance 10 the new born
whether his life period OF expectancy
shall be twenty-three years.
The frightful death rate from pre-
ventable disease in this country makes
il absolutely feasible to add twelve or
even twenty years to the average length
Of human life by the simple measures
which are already we'll known and
proved. Indeed it is not to much to
claim that In the next fifty or pos
sibly one hundred years we may in
crease the length Of life to at least
sixty-Rve years il the State and Federal
governments will make the conserving
OF health one Of its principal functions
Some day typhoid fever will be as
obsolete as cholera is now Smallpox
will be unknown, and tuberculosis a
disease of the careless and ignorant
only. The venereal diseases will be-
as rigidly guarded against as the Blu
bonic Plague is at this time. Dphther-
ia, scarlet fever and mumps will prob
ably always be epidemic, but vaccines
and serums will render them unecces-
sary and practically harmless.

Microscopic Artillery on Your Watch

Gently presented Madame Curie, the
eiscoverer OF radium, with q pinch OF
ihat precious substance, we're Obliged

tnion IN ortcr to purchase il. Since

total supply Of the world is estimated

people may we'll wonder how watch
makers can afford 10 use it to flumi-
nate the dials OF watches tina, cost
as little as FIVE dollars. This expla-
nation which Mr.. Hamilton Foley gives
in the bulletin Of the Pan-American
Union, is extremely interesting.
The luminous mater;a' OF watch and
clock dials is the combination OF a
minute quantity Of radium and a spec
tally prepared zinc sulphide. II you
should examine one OF these dials
under a good reading lens in the
dark, you will notice that the lumi.
nous material is seething with tiny
flashes of light. They are caused BY
the explosion of the atoms in the mi
mute quantity OF radium in the mix
ture. The atoms are SO small that ap-
proximately two hundred and fifty mil
lion OF them would be needed to cover
one inch. AS each atom explodes a
particle flies from it like a projectile
from a gun. Although the particles
are too small to be seen under the
most powerful microscope, men Of sci
ence have found that when one sud-
deny strikes a crystal of zinc sui
phide the heat it generates Is sufficient
to cause flash of light.
The flashes occur at the rate OF two
hundred thousand second on the or
binary luminous watch dial, and il
is the combined light OF all the flashes
that produce the glow that makes the
dial visible in the dark. The BRIGHT
ness and duration Of a luminous dial
depend on the number Of the tiny fash
es a second-the more radium, the
more flashes, and the brighter the
dial. But every fash is a blow upon
a crystal Of zinc sulphide, and the
crystals are bound to break down un-
der them. When that happens the
dial loses its glow; not the radium, but
the zinc has failed.
Only one twenty-ffth Of one per cent
OF any quantity Of radium disinteprates
or is los tin year. The quantity OF
radium on the ordinary dial cannot be
more than one millionth OF a gram.

Russia has begun the year 1922 with
eight months OF unspeakable horrors
before her and the terrible dread that
next summers crop may only slightly
relieve the gnawing famine. At Tsart-
sin, Sarato1, Samara, Ufa, Orenburg
and Kazan frozen bodies are stacked
high awaiting burial in trenches which
workmen cannot prepare fast enough
for the victims OF famine, exposure
and typhus, and every day the situa-
tpn is growing worse. American re-
lief workers who originally placed
the number OF deaths In the famine
area this year at two million, now say
that Ave million Is a low estimate,
and some Of them say that the number
may reach ten million or even more
