USE NEWSPAPERS FOR WALLS
Two Thousand Tons Shipped From
Europe in Year-Helps Keep
Vermin From Houses

The Chinese, it Is thought, are the
greatest Of all consumers Of old news
papers. The official returns Of the Gus
tomhouse at Newchang show that that
port alone, during the year for which
figures are available, received approx
imately 1000 tons Of old European
newspapers valued at $4,000.
II is not at first easy to imagine to
what use so much obsolete news can
be put. It is. however, ascertained
that the middle class Chinese prefer
newspaper to native wall paper as q
covering for their walls. 1t has a
greater power Of resistance and affords
a more effective barrier to the inva-
sions Of the vermin that infest Chi
nese houses, often driving out the in
mates.
Moreover, the Chinese are experts at
cutting out of newspapers waistcoats
which they wear next to the skin.
These paper walstcoats are said to be
the best possible protection against a
sudden "cold snap" In view Of these
admirable uses to which European
newspapers may be put, 1t is not sur
prislng to learn that the imports con-
stantly show increase in weight.
1t should be added, however, that
the value of the import has declined.
This fact is explained by the rapid de-
velopment of the native newspaper
press that has occurred during the last
few years.

SALT DRINK FOR HOT CLIMATE
Experiments on Miners Indicate 81.
Iuted Sea Water Keeps Them
Stronger and Filter.

Dilute sea water or salt water In
any palatable form may be the basis
of future soft drinks for hot weather
and tropical climates, says a London
dispatch to the New York Evening
Post. A long series of experiments on
workers in hot mines has shown that a
small quantity of salt daily has the
power to relieve the men of much of
the exhaustion supposed to be due to
severe toll at high temperatures, and
to prevent altogether the development
of the dreaded miners cramp. Men
given about one-thlrd of an ounce of
common salt dissolved in a gallon of
water reported themselves stronger
and filter in every way.
Measurements taken by Prof. X.
Neville Ross of Birmingham univer-
slty showed that during a five and
one-half hour working shift at tenn
perature around 100 degrees, the men
lost from nine to eighteen pounds
through Precipitation and respiration.
Other men who worked in a specially
heated testing room in a laboratory
showed similar losses and q loss of
twice as much salt from the system
as under normal conditions. He also
discovered that men who worked In
hot mines ate a third more salt food
than those who worked under normal
conditions.

USE MORE MOTOR BUSES
Thousand Of Them Are Operated Over
Routes TotaIlng Fifteen
Hundred Miles.

One thousand motor buses are now
operated by more than 100 electric
railways over routes totallng 1900
miles In the United States and Cana
da, according to a survey recently
completed by the editors of Bus
Transportation. The figures Indicate
an increase of nearly 100 per cent
in the use of buses by trolley compa-
niles since October /, 1922. At that
time there were only fifty-six COM
panles operating $50 buses over 900
miles of highway. OF the 1000 buses
now in operation 225 are In the east
ern states. The western states are
rapidly approaching this figure, how
ever, with 200. Wisconsin has the
largest railway owned bus system In
the world. The Wisconsin Motor Bus
Lines, inc, a subsidiary Of the MIL
waukee Electric Light and Power
company, operates bus system which
spreads out like a huge fan from
Milwaukee and covers 900 miles of
highway. One hundred modern speed
buses are used on this system. The
next largest operation is run Jointly
by the Pacific Electric and the Los
Angeles railway on eleven routes In
southern California.

RESCUES STOLEN BABY SEAL
for Eighty Miles and Rseov-
ers Infant.

A sea captain not long ago captured
a young seal, hoping to tame and rear
1t on board his ship. He placed 1t in
a sack to secure It, but wide as the
ocean was, and swiftly as the ship
sped on, the mother was as swift, and
followed in search Of her young.
When 1t was first caught the mother
hOwled plteously and the baby"
barked back its grief, but the man was
relentless and coolly watched the
agonized mother follow him till the
ship reached the wharf at Santa Bar
bara, says Our Dumb Animals.
Here he thought his prize was safe,
for surely no seal would venture
there, and the ship was locked. Sud
denly the mother gave a cry close to
the ship, and the little one, as If obey
ing instructions, struggled, still in the
sack, to the edge Of the deck and
rolled itself overheard. The mother
was seen to seize the sack, rip it open
with her sharp teeth and joyfully
claim her baby. She had swum after
1t for eighty miles.

SOME NATIONS BAR KISSING
In Japan It Is Looked Upon as tho
Depth Of Human Degradation
Cut Them Out Of Films.

Remarkable penalties ere exacted In
some countries from those found In
dulging in kissing. In Milan guilty
parties are liable to a heavy fine in
certain towns in Russia before the war
1t was also a punishable offense; while
elsewhere men cannot kiss the women
folk on Sunday without risk Of prose
cution.
Recently, in Belgium, a man and his
wife were fined IS francs each for hay
ing kissed in public. This case is all
the more surprising, as in Belgium and
France a public kiss between spouses
on meeting or separation is recognized
as a traditional salute.
In Japan kissing is looked upon as
the depth of human degradation. Every
kiss In film has to be cut out, and there
are film censors who do almost nothing
else but look out for kisses
Perhaps the worst sufferers from the
kissing habit are railway authorities,
and in a number of instances kissing
on the station premises is forbidden in
view or the delay thus caused. Speclal
notices to this effect were issued by
the Bavarian state railways.
The penny platform tickets were in
troduced on railways in England during
the war to prevent kissing on the plat
form and consequent delay.
How did kissing originated The Bible
is full of kissing Of the widest range,
from the treacherous kiss Of Judas to
Jacobs tender salute of Rachel at the
well. The early Romans sealed all
their nuptials with kisses, and kisses
were popular observance among the
early Christians until, in 397 such sa-
lutes between the sexes were forbid
den.
II we are to credit the Scandinavian
tradition, kissing was a pleasurable
habit introduced into England by
Rowena, the beautiful Saxon.
Kisses have helped In no small de-
gree to mold history. In 1894 the beau
tiful duchess of Gordon founded and
raised the Gordon Highlanders, one Of
the most noted Of Highland regiments,
by kissing.-Baltimor Sun.
