PREVENTION Of

DETROIT, Mich. Aug. 15.-Acting
upon the findings of recent investi-
cation by the army air service Of the
causes for fiers on cross-country trips
figuring in accidents that often cost
their lives, or at least caused great
damage 10 them and their planes, the
Detroit board of commerce will in
augurate a campaign to have all cities
of more than 1000 population paint
the name Of the town upon the roof OF
the railroad station or some other tall
and easily DISTINGUISHED building.
Such a step will eliminate low fly
ing over cities. in itself a dangerous
practice as the use Of airplanes for
commercial purposes increases and as
the vogue for cross-country flights
xrows with this, it will become more
and more necessary to enable pilots
20 check their positions easily and
without getting themselves in danger.
Pilots now become lost in the air for
any one of a number of very good
reasons, the chief one being Door Wis
fbility. Railroad station names are
usually up on the sides Of buildings

What 7 omorrowMeans to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
SaEttarius.,

Saglttarlus.
Tomorrows planetary aspects are
quite in keeping with the superstition
that centers around Fridays. They
are distinctly adverse, and the few
brief and intermittent spells of bright
ness do not detract from the general
unpropitiousness of the day for any
thing Of constructive effort, fresh
thought, change or travel. Routine
ton, and even these will give rise, In
all probability, to a feeling OF dissat-
iSfaction and encouragement. This,
however, is insignificant compared
with the influences that VIII, II you

sake of those around you, not to go
too near to the slough OF despond."
A child born tomorrow will expert

fall sick with as remarkable rapidity
as ii will recover its usual normal

If tomorrow is your birthday, you
are resolute and possess a powerful
will, and are always confident that
your way is the right way, and must
succeed. You. of course. meet with OPP

You have supreme confidence in your

your emotions, and. although you may

lookers-on to diagnose your feelings.

contentment which unselfishness alone

In Winter plants in pots re-
quire more water than those in
boxes, as large amount of
water is lost by the evaporation
through the pot. This IS an
advantage rather than disad-
vantage, for air also passes
through the pot. if it is I'M
glazed. and is of benefit to the
roots. Plants in small pots re-
quire more water than those in
large pots.
To hard boil eggs. place them
in cold water. allow them to

The Poison Obsession.

A retired general informs me that
my estimate of 20000,000 morons in
the United States was erroneous. He
says q careful survey or investigation
by Prof. Meyer showed that 100000
adults in this country have the men,

dren. But the general adds that this
figure of Prof. Meyers was subjected
to a rigid scrutiny by a committee of
investigators. and their report was
that the professors assertion is mac
curate--the average mental develop
ment of the $4,000 900 weak-minded
individuals was found to be that Of the
normal child of II years and months.

There are still doctors extant who
harbor equally childish notions about
poisons in the system or in the
blood, or about the elimination" of
poisons through the skin. To put it
frankly, We didn't take physiology
any too seriously when we were in
little incentive for studying such an
elementary subject on our own-the
public cares little for a doctors phys
Illogical knowledge; the question is,
does he ella i'm he can cure what the
public thinks ails It?
One of the most popular poison OBJ
sessions refers to alcoholism and to-
baccoism. 1t seems that certain quack
treatments for inebriety which former

dishonest propaganda purported to re.
move some vague poison from the
system or the blood of the drunkard.
and once that poison was eradicated
he no longer craved alcohol. The

of tobaccoism; for instance, l read in
a booklet circulated by a health eX.

the Turkish bath, will assist in ra pid

Now, in the first place, we do not
know whether nicotine or something
else in tobacco accounts for the effects
of excessive smoking; and in the next
place we have no ground for assuming
that any definite poison" is STORED

boasted that first Of all they chose
materials that were of the best that

The ideal combination, of course. is

History shows us many instances
where a change in the name of~arr-fH-

in the circumstances of his or her
life. Under ordinary circumstances
I would not recommend the indis-
criminate changing of names, Tor II
we have reached adult age under
certain name. we nave gained an eX-
perienCe of life which cannot be alb
ruptlv discarded for something new
and untried. If, however, a person is
dissatisfied with the present form of
his name and is unhappy p good deal
of the time without quite knowing
why; if he is pitted against life in
what seems TO be an unequal Strug-
gle, then change in his signature Is
warranted. The substitution of one
signature for another may not en-
tirely remedy the situation, but TO
me it seems well worth while.
