Night in Borneo Has
Charm All Its Our,

In all places there are lovely inter
esting things to listen to at night. IL
you are not sleeping, but the night
noises in Borneo are different from
those elsewhere. There are deep
jungles of closely growing vines and
ferns just off any road. The jungle
climbs up and down very steep hills
There are great trees and small
trees. Many have varieties of orchids
and other air plants In them. And
there are many monkeys. SO there Is
the drip, drip of the gentle rain, and
perhaps the roar OF little stream
over full Then great chatter with
rough shrleks drowning out every
other noise for a while. Then as all
the gentle noises begin broadcasting
again, groan, swelling to denfenlng
crash. Other smaller groans and
crashes follow. A great tree, not too
well rooted, has gone down, taking all
the tangled other trees along, As
things quiet down, you will hear Il
few tentative bird calls and just as
you begin to feel sleepy the gun in
the village is discharged. This means
business and every one with work to
do jumps out, for the time to get the
work done when you live in Borneo
is while the nights GOODNESS fingers
In the air.

Anyway, She Thought
She Got Fresh Air

"Speakin' of the weather minds me
Doc Brady was tellln' the boys up to
the store the other night bout that
old couple that lives In that house
over to North Danville that Hiram
Pritchard owned before he moved up
to Center. Doc says the old man
won't have no window open at night
time and the old woman's all for fresh
air, and Doc says their hired gel told
him that the other night the old folk
were havin' It back and to after they
were In bed bout the window not
bein' open, and Doc says the hired gel
said the old woman got SO mad she
jumped up and broke the glass with
her fist and II seems the next morn
In the hired gel heard the old man
laughin' his head Off. Doc said the
gel was scared at first, she thought
the old man was havin' chokln' At.
at seems that when the old folks
woke up they found the old woman
had smashed the mirror instead of the
window."-Beatrlce HEREFORD In Life.

Persons of Short Limbs
Not Hard to Classify

If accidents and disease could be
eliminated, II would be quite easy to
classify mankind into "long-livers"-
those who Will live to seventy years
and upwards-and those whose span
Of life will be In the neighborhoOd of
the flfties.
Medical men and scientists are In
agreement In stating that long trunk
and short limbs are lnfallible lndlca.
lions OF longevity. The long trunk
means that the organs OF the body
heart, lungs liver and so on, are
sound and fully developed, with plen
ty of room for functioning.
Trunk length, too, means longer or
gans, and investigation has proved
that the soundest hearts and lungs
are always long. Under normal con
dltlons tuberculosis never attacks
long lungs, nor does heart disease at
rex long hearts.
Smaller, but interesting indications
OF longevity are long hands with
short. (but non-stumpy) fingers, and
wide nostrlls, The latter may or may
not accompany large noses, but the
nostril holes must be large and al
mOnd shaped.
brain longevity" Is indicated by
the position of the ear orifices. The
latter should be low. That always
betokens a good quality, deep-seated

Few Snakes Harmful

Most common snakes are beneficial
In their food habits and should b."
protected. Wherever snakes are pres
ent In abnormally large numbers
there must be an abundance Of living
animal food In the vicinity to attract
them. This food consists largely Of
injurious rodents and insects, pests
of garden crops and stored foodstuffs
Snakes eat such small living crea-
lures as earthworms. spiders, grass
hoppers, saamanders, small frogs.
mice, rats, chipmunks and young rab-
bits. King snakes are able to kill rat
tlesnakes and have been known to
eat them. The little red-bellied snake
subslsts to large extent on slugs,
which are very destructive to gar
dens. Bullsnakes and gopher snakes
destroy large numbers OF injurious
rodents In the course Of year. The
food habits Of very few snakes con
flct with mans interests.

The brlquette is form OF fuel,
