DO YOU KNOW IT?

Astronomers that an explosion probably the
greatest in history took place Feb 2 out among the
stars Beta Ce star of hesecond magnitude briancy
suddenly famed and became of the brightest
technically known as first magnitude
What the astronomers really mean that the explosion
took place 50 and that became visible to Feb
Beta Cet is far away from earth takes light
travelling 800 miles second so years to reach In
other words when look at this STAR it existed
in 1S43.
What is it like now? No way Of knowing until so years
hence in the year 2003.
man 10 from you looks up and certain
instant Farther 100 feet behind him, another
looks up at identicay the time But the second
you fraction of second later than does the first
since it takes the light fraction of second longer
to reach him. The fraction innsmay SMALL OF course
1t increases with distance.
You've noticed similar phenomenon If you looked
out at sea and smoke from before you
heard the report OF the explosion The explanation here
that light waves travel faster than sound waves.
When look into the sky at night the stars
not as they today but they at various times in the
past The time depends their distance Suppose there
people living on Beta Ceti.
There couldn't be- understand things because Of the
intense heat there But just suppose. And suppose also
that astronomer Beta Ceti has telescope powerful
enough to enlarge earth sufficiently what going
here.
Since takes so years for light travel between
our earth and Beta Ce that astronomer is seeing what hap
pned earth so 1t would be the year zoos be-
fore ne could see what is happening here today.
Apply the idea to distant stars and people
them would be peerng through their telescopes today watch
ing the Battle of Waterloo the building of the pyramids

This is what Enstein has in mind when he says that time
is relative not fixed and absolute II you ponder the idea it
will impress you that the universe there not really any

NATIONAL CONSCIENCE is
f.. NOT 50 ACTIVE
Daily Letter by Frederic j. Haskio

notice that his contribution has been
received and his conscience eased.
| The man who cut his money in
\ two and sent it to two Government
| officials evidently took this curse
| for two reasons: first he thought the
chances Of seeing an announcement
| in the newspapers would be better
! If the story were giVop out in two
places and, second, he doubtless
wanted to prevent whole bills sent
merely as a package through the
mails from tempting postal clerks or
an one else who might chance to
see what the package contained, to
commit another fraud.
! Appropriated II Mule
Sometimes conscience sleeps for a
long time and then aWakes to plague
its owner for some long past slip. a
year or two ago. for instance, the
Treasury received 500 from d man
| in t West who said that toward
the close of the Civil War he had
| found a mule straying in a field near
a battlefield, Immediately after the
battle. He had appropriated the
| mule TO his own uses and had en-
ployed it on his farm as long as it
! lived. The mule had been dead for
science began to pGicl him, He
thought it over for long time but
finally. realizing that he had grown
old and soon must face whatever
! judgment there is, had sent in the
approximate value o a mule. Prob
ably the old man passed away quiet
| ly and peacefully.
Sometimes remitters to the con-
| science fund state that they are pay
! ing back the sum they took or the
, value of the article purloined, to-
| gether with interest thereon since
| the date of the fraud. Sometimes
| the interest is compounded, and the
| Treasury will receive several times
the amount of money of which it
| originally was defrauded.
| Many contributions are made by
smugglers. Obviously, some of the
| penitent notes that accompany ths
! contributions have been written by
womsl !. Bits of lace, a jewel or two
I smuggled past the customs inspec-
| tor apparently can cause a distress
| which can be relieved only by resti-
| tuition,
! The Treasury is rather surprised
at the scarcity OF contributions TO
this fund during the last year or two.
During the war when so much Gov
ernment property was lying around
| loose and when the haste of action
| prevented the usual safe~ylards in
| handling OF money and securities,
there must have been many in
stances where temptation proved
strong.
| Perhaps there has not elapsed suf-
| ficieut time for the consciences of
| these persons to awaken, So little
| information usually is given in notes
accompanying contributions that it
would be difficult to mai.e very
authentic statement, but a rough cal
culation would indicate that about
10 years on an average runs before
the conscience compels its owner to
act. And it seems that the con-
science is just as firm a policeman
in the case of the theft of q. one-cent
stamp as in a fraud involving thous-
ands.

It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret Of keeping young is to feel
young-to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels-there's no need of
having sallow complexion-dark rings
under your eyes-pimples-a bilious
look in your face--dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from
inactive bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, well-known physician
in Ohio. perfected a vegetable com.
pound mixed with olive oil to act on the
liver and bowels. which he gave to his
patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the SUBJ
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action yet always effective. They bring
about that natural buoyancy which all
should enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of impurities.

by their olive color. l5c and 30c.

jokes.
Once on time, as most people
will recall, William j. Bryan ran for
president and his running mate was
Henry Gassaway Davis.
At a diAner one Of the guests re-
marked that IL Bryan were elected
the presidency and vice presidency
would be all in the family. since
Bryan was related to Davis through
the latter's middle name.
How interesting!" said a lady
who was distantly related to Mr..
Bryan: "I never knew before that
there was any relation"
On a subsequent occasion the
same guest told the story with evil
dent relish to Mr.. Davis himself.
Mr.. Davis looked puzzled, then re-
marked: "WelI, I've neI r looked up
my family tree, but that's the first
time I've heard ] was related to
Bryan"
