STARTING THE DAY RIGHT

days work Is not well begun and
time only can tell what will happen

In the morning every window in
your dressing room should be wide
open. You should take fifty deep
breaths Of pure air. After your
bath, a good rubbing with rough
towel will leave you in a glow. Even
in hot weather these preliminaries
should be taken. You want your
heart pumping vigorously and your
skin flushed with good, red blood.

Gauging Population

"HE population of a country it not limited to the
number of its people.
Il 1t implies the innate ability of those people.
According to the American Exchange National
Bank every person this country has at command
the equivalent of the work and pulling power of twenty
horses.
One man can produce five or six times as much as
man used to twenty thirty years ago, and ten to
hundred times as much a man used to hundred and
fifty years ago.
driver in an automobile seat commands speed
that was unknown twenty-five years ago otherwhere
than in locomotive.
This is the thing that makes the people OF the
United States potent in production.
1t is not the number of people we have, but the
power represented by these people.
This has been due to the immense progress made
in invention in the last few years and in the ability OF
the population to adapt that invention for their use
We cannot stand still. Further forces will be in
vented and these will lead the human race to still
greater dominion over nature

Wayside Wisdom
Not Asking For Much.
By S. E. Kiser

Not Asking For Much.
Ny Uncle Jonathan holds fast -
The faith he got at Grandma's
knees;
he thinks that God sends down the
blast
That skaters towns and levels
trees.
Not long ago 1 spent a night
Where Uncle Jonathan resides;
There's solace for the appetite
In all the meals his wife provides.
We knelt in prayer when bedtime
came,
And Uncle Jonathan prayed long;
he mentioned many things by name
That he appeared to think were
wrong.
"Oh, Lord" he said, I'VE need more
rain,
Let showers descend upon the
land;
If, being fearful, we complain,
Thou wilt behold and understand.
Send down Thy blessing on US
here,
And grant our needs in goodly
store;
Make all our pathways smooth and
clear,
Enrich US daily more and more.
Teach me, Thy servant, to be wise,
Anoint me with Thy holy grace;
Behold with Thy all-seeing eyes
Those who are gathered in this
place.
LET fear come on our enemies,
Give each Of US the strength Of
ten;
Forgive our daily errors, please,
And Thine shall be the praise
amen"
Ny Uncle Jonathan is good,
That is to say, he thinks be is,
And I'd say nothing, if l could,
To wreck the faith that still is
his.

Ask Questions
By DIR. FRANK CRANE

many questions to ask a famous
chemist.
The more you know about a sub
ject the more you can learn by ask
ing a specialist questions.
A man who made name for him
self because of his wide knowledge
once said: "Almostyall know !
learned by asking questions"
Our reasons for failing to take
advantage of this great source Of in
formation may lie in our timidify,
our pride, our feeling of ignorance
or our lack of interest.
All of these are weak qualities
and can be corrected.
Regard the dread of showing your
ignorance by asking foolish ques-
tons, it is we'll to remember the
statement Steinmetz, the electrical
experimenter, who said:
"There is no such thing as fool
ish question"
OF course this implies a real de-
sire for information and not just
idle curiosity.
No one, is offended by sincere in
terest in his work or in himself.
Personal magnetism has been de-
fined as consisting of sincerity and
interest in other people and their
work.
The habit Of asking questions is
an invaluable one to cultivate.

A days work IL well begun
Is really more than half done.

Is really more than half done.
I am writing this on a Pullman
car. 1t is the morning after my
fourth successive night on the
sleeper. Perhaps 1 am irritable and
fussy, but really l am provoked.
In the Mushroom OF the sleeper
are three wash-basins. Three per-
sons can be removing the CRIME Of
travel, while two or three more can
be hunting for clean linen and
changing collar buttons.
1t always makes me mad to have
the space in the wash.room taken up
by carly risers who have been to the
diner and have returned for a morn
ing smoke. This morning, in addi-
ton to the bathers, five persons
were crowding the seats of that lit
tie coop. There was a Jap, two
cowboys, lost soul with sadness
in his eyes and a captain of some
foreign army. Two were smoking
ancient and, doubtless, honorable
pipes; one blew clouds from a cigar
cite, and the Lost Soul merely took
up space.
A sleeping car isn't any too fresh
in the morning. No way has yet
been found to ventilate 1t. You
don't sleep well, get up with a dark
brown taste in your mouth and then
have TO crowd into a little room
where ten other mortals are breath
ing the vile air and tobacco atmos-
phere.
/ never complain about tobacco
and have not shared the horror some
medical writers feel about what it
will do to human beings. Temper
ately used by adults, it probably
sOothes and comforts more than it
harms. But / proclaim an unwill-
ingness to have it forced into my
protesting lungs while / am trying
TO clean up for the day.

One Drop of Water

/" HE almost inconceivable smallness of the atom,
the most minute particle of matter that can
L exist as an element has been measured by Pro-
fessor Willis r. Whitney and described by him in an
address before the American Chemical Society. He
says:
Suppose we take one single drop of water and let
all of its hydrogen atoms appear drops of water. We
know that the drop contains about 100000 oo0
o0o 100000 (hree billion tron) hydrogen atoms. If
these large randrops they would cover the
whole earth with foot of water.
eff the raindrops which correspond in number to
the hydrogen atoms in drop of water fell rapidly
as in the heaviest rainfall this rainfall would continue
all over the United States for nearly two weeks"
