Before Jack started to make all
this money, she had threatened 70

Fred about IL. and she told him she
knew some things that would open
our eyes! I guess shed been having
him watched. Why, she limited to
Fred that Jacks been chasing around

Giants of California
Imperiled by Tourists

Yosemite National Park, Calf
Ancient mythologists tell of gods slain
by their worshipers; and something
Of the kind is happening in the Big
Tree grove Of Mariposa county, where
thousands of tourists are unconscious
ly destroying that which they come
hundreds of miles to admire.

continued and heavy trampling of
human feet has destroyed the root
endings and finer roots of many of
the trees. Without these of course
the trees are unable to absorb water
and mineral nutrients from the soil.
The rescue of Grizzly Giant, one of
the finest big trees in existence, from
a similar fate about twenty-five years
ago, is recalled. Trampling had de-
stroyed it's endings, and friends of
the trees were at a loss to know what
to do. Finally it was suggested by
George T. Harlow, at that time guard
ian of the grove, that the soil sur
rounding the tree be loosened some
what and that additional soil be
placed around the tree and over the
roots to a height of three or four
feet The experiment, though ridi-
culed at the time, proved entirely
successful, and the old tree was re-
stored to health.

Flagstaff, Ariz.-Two child burials

bore shell necklace and was accom-

In the other burial the cradle board
was underneath the body. Four pots
were found with it. Both bodies had
been wrapped in mating, but mois

only small piece could be salvaged.

VILLAGE GOSSIPS
Apparatus Prevents Eaves-
dropping on Talk.

Washington. - Television, mechani-
cal men and artificial larynxes were
forgotten mOmentarily when Sergius
P. Grace, engineer of the Bell Tele-
phone laboratories, demonstrated to
an audience in the City club an cleo
trical "ear" and "brain' which enables
radio broadcasters to converse with
out fear of eavesdropping.
The demonstration was carried on
with the aid Of monograph rec
ord of natural speech, which had been
so distorted by Transforming high
frequency toaes into low frequencies
that the language emanating from 1T
sounded like mixture of oriental and
monkey gibberish.
While the unintelligible speech was
the horn an electrical "ear" or pick
up transmitter, similar to the trans
mitters used in broadcasting studios.
The current from this transmitter was
carried into an electrical "translating
BRAIN" amplified and connected with
several loud speakers. Immediately
these horns, in tones much louder than
the monograph, burst forth with the
speech in clear, understandable Eng
lish.
When the electrical "ear" was re-
moved the loud speakers stopped
speaking and the audience again
heard the synthetically manufactured
language issue from the monograph.
Grace said the instruments had
added to the marvels of science an
electrical machine that can under
stand a language unintelligible to or.
binary human beings"

especially when few drops of plain
Castoria will right baby's stomach
and end almost any little i'll. Fretful-

until everything is serene.
That's the beauty of Castoria; its
gentle influence seems just what is
needed. 1t does all that castor oil
might accomplish, without shock to
the system. Without the evil taste.
It's delicious! Being purely vegeta-

Just one warning: 1t is genuine
Fletcher's Castoria that physicians
recommend. Other preparations may
be just as free from all doubtful drugs,
but no child of this writer's is going
to test them! Besides, the book on
care and feeding of babies that comes
