Sacs and Foxes.

Des Moines, Ia, Jan. 26.-Iowa,
said by some students to have a

who came nearest being natives OF
Iowa.
Iowa was in prehistoric days large
ly neutral field, with Indian tribes
on all sides and no important tribe
which made Its home entirely In Iowa.
The Sioux inhabited the northwest
and their villages stretched across
into the northwest corner OF what is
now Iowa; the Sacs and Foxes in
habited a part of the state with parts
Of Illinois and Missouri. and number
Of other smaller tribes lived along the
states borders.

Science

Leaders in medical science believe
that a cure for cancer soon will be
found. The strange increase of this
disease in recent years has urged
science to it's greatest effort. Can
Ger seems to be a disease Of civiliza-
ton. 1t is practically unknown
among savage tribes. AS modern
appliances make it less and less
necessary for people to exert them
selves. deaths from cancer become
more numerous.
Thus far the use Of the X-ray has
been one of the most important
methods in treating cancer, and such
treatments probably will be greatly
improved by a new invention. The
short rays are the kind most needed
in this treatment. Glass does not
permit the passage of these rays,
and until recently the tubes in
which X-rays are produced have al
ways been made Of glass. The lat
est discovery is a tube made of Wit
reosil, as fused silica is called.
Vitreosil permits the passage of the
short rays. Vitreosil will stand a
much higher temperature than glass
and is much stronger. This means
more continuous service from X
rays, which is of great Importance to
industry as well as to medical sci
ence.

9 Consider the arms of a big comfy

chair arms are there--it ought to be
good for a pome.
Dad comes home from work and
he spies the armchair. He leisurely
f1ops himself in it. And shortly the
arms find his legs hanging there
and he's snoring away in a minute.
Just patiently knitting, all day
mothers sitting; the old chair just
fits her, it seems. And then, on the
arms, she will rest aged charms and
she shortly will drift into dreams.
A sweetheart will gracefully loll
in the chair; her reason is shortly
made clear. The arms find a lover

sweet things in her ear.
A little tots naughty; some cross
