1t would be startling experience to be able to
stand on the equator and gaze at the north pole.
You can't do it, of But you can do what

point of science.
Scientific expeditions doing ii today in South
America in the Andes mountains.
From the Isthmus of Panama to Cape Horn stretch
the Andes continents backbone of rugged peaks,
the highest reaching up o3,OSO feet
The mean temperature upon the earth's surface
varies about one degree Fahrenheit for every 800,

Temperatures in the Andes change degree for
every 300 feet you so up or down the mountainside
Accordingly, you can get all the temperature eff

zeal forest. It's peak will be clothed with eternal
snow.
AS the mountain is climbed one climate zone is
met after another.
The tropical extends to height of 5000
feet. From there to 5000 feet of altitude extends

Not only does the temperature change with the

are found some 200 species found nowhere else in
South America.
This is one Of the facts that make the Andes so
important to the scientist
second important fact is that the Andes are
recent affairs as time goes geologically. South
America existed for millions of years before some
gigantic upheaval OF the earth brought the Andes
into existence.
This means that the ancestor OF every bird to be
found in the Andes, exists somewhere else in the
world.
Scientists hope to trace these ancestors and BY

Epilepsy, or falling sickness rs it
was at one time called, is Il chrome
disease of the brain, general ner~
vOuS disorder characterized by con-
WILSON'S and loss of consciousness.
There are all possible gradationS
Of disorder of consciousness, from Il
complete loss to that of complete re-
tention. In general. however, mani
festations Of epilepsy are character
lied by complete loss Of conscious
ness for a longer or shorter period
Of time. The manifestations of the
disease have usually been classified
according to their severity.
There are three we'll marked var
ieties Of the epileptic seizure-grand
NAL, petit NAL. and psychic epilepsy
Any of these may exist alone but it
sometimes happens that grand NAL
and petit NAL may he found to exist
in the same individual.
Grand NAL, if not the more COM
mon, is at least that which attracts
the most attention, being what is
generally known as an epileptic fit
Although in most instances such
an attack comes on suddenly it is in
some cases preceded by indications OF
warnings often varied in character
a temporary change in disposition
for example, an unusual depression
or elevation of spirits, or some
change in appearance. Besides these
general symptoms there are frequent.
ly peculiar sensations which imme-
diately precede the onset Of the aft.
The seizure itself is usually pre-.
coded by loud scream or cry. This
cry or scream is due to the convul.
sive action Of the muscles of the
larynx and the expulsion of column
Of air and is not due 10 terror OF
pain.
If patient is standing he imme.

be complete and the muscles general
ly arc'in state Of great stiffness.
Breathing Arrested
The head is turned by a series OF
Jerks toward one of the shoulders
The breathing is arrested for mo-
ment, the face grows first pale, Their
livid, the pupils of the eyes dilate
and the pulse becomes rapid.
This first stage of the seizure gen.
orally lasts for about half minute
and is followed by spasm of the
muscles in which the whole body i:
drawn into violent agitation.
The eyes roll. the teeth are gnasheG
together, the tongue and cheek are
often severely bitten. The breathing
is noisy and foam, sometimes tinget
with blood. issues from the mouth.
This stage lasts for a period vary
ing from few seconds to severa
minutes. when the convulsive move
ments gradually subside and tn,
muscles relax. There is a partial re-
turn to consciousness.
This stage is soon followed by

New York, Sept. 24.-Yessir, this is
some big town. James Boyce, of
l02nd Street, returned home, as he
thought, the other night and went to
sleep. The next he knew he was
being awakened and arrested for
trespass. He had entered the house
next door, thinking it was his own.
This story got into the papers and
probably on the wires because Roycc
happened to invade home inhabited
only by women and was arrested.
However, ] know of dozens Of similar
occurrences in which no arrests were
made. There are rows upon rows of
houses identically alike in various
sections of the city. And a man
need not to have been drinking to
enter the wrong one.
Your correspondent was sitting
with head phones on trying to hear
Davenport through the static one
night when he looked up and saw a
strange man and woman in the room.
They were as much startled as he
was. 1t developed that they lived
on the floor below and anyone living
that far away from you in New York
is perfect stranger.

"What has happened?" asked the
, Twins in surprise.
"You might guess" sighed her
Royal Hiehness. "All the meadow

not worry about it," she said. 'Peo-
pie can only get into one kind Of
trouble at time. Mother says when

lady. "And let us hope that there

"We'll do just the best We can"
That's fine" said the Fairy
Queen in a relieved voice. "Come
with me then. I'll show you where
it is to be. l think the best place is
half way up the valley, where the
road runs between the creek and the

plainly as the movies.
Here was Wally Woodchuck's
house. and there was Mister COrny
Coon's basement door, and yonder
was Chick Chipmunk's cottage.
But the most astonishing thing Of
all was the evidence Of new building
that had been going on.
For behind every single tiny house
was shining new garage.
At that minute the turkey gObbler
and Danny Duck were having con-
versation about which garage was
the handsomer-the woodchuck's OF
the chipmunk,s-and Nancy heard
Danny say that he too was thinking
Of buying car as soon as he could

my fairy carpenter, is waiting to
begin to build the filling station az

build it on"
| Pretty soon they came to the
place! There was the gasoline sta
ton as complete as the court house,
and there stood Tick Tack as pleased
as Punch over what he had done.
"The filling station is all finished
your Majesty" he said to the Fairy
Queen-"pumps and all. l heard you
