New Guinea Natives
Hostile to Visitors

New Guinea is the largest island
Except Australia) in the world. II
is situated in the south Pacific ocean
just north of Australia and somewhat
southeast of the Philippines.
There are over six hundred thou
sand black natives on the island, some
of them still very savage and hostile
to strangers. Being so near to the
equator, the temperature is never
cold, except on the mountain tops !;
and for this reason the natives do
not require solidly built houses. Their
habitations are very simple struc-
lures. They are made of reeds or the
branches of certain trees, and COW
cred either with some of the long
grasses that grow In the islands or
with the leaves of palm trees. Some
Of the villages have streets as straight
as our own, but they are not paved,
being merely dirt roads worn smooth
by the naked feet of the inhabitants.
The houses must be rainproof, for
rains in these regions are often
heavy; and they are also proof
against earthquakes.

Kidding the Kids

II won't drink milk" exclaims lit
the Tommy, petulantly Don't spank
him! Be diplomatic. Make game of
1t.
Children can be made to do things
In this way, and enjoy doing them.
For example, to make a child drink
milk:
Do not give him whole glass. Use
a small glass. Ask how many sips it
will take him to drink it all. He will
guess. Then doubt him. Let him
count each sip. When it is gone make
a wager that he cannot better his
record. He will say he can, and very
likely will prove it. In this way the
child will probably drink more than

Researches conducted by an emil
nent Assyriologist deals a scholarly
blow to the notion that the Egyptians
were the first brewers. A thesis by
Doctor Huber, the Assyriologist, pub
lished by the German Society for the
History of photography of Brewing,
shows conclusively that the Egyptians
learned the art Of making beer from
the Babylonians. Sumerians in the
seventh millennium before this era
used beer in religious sacrifices, early
authentic records indicate. The art
of mailing appears to have been per-
fected in the fifth millennium and
after the time of Hammurabi hops,
emmer, special kind of wheat, and
barley, were used-Exchange

Mystery of Rheumatism,

Rheumatism used to be thought an
ailment due to exertion and exposure.
It was considered natural that agri-
cultural laborers should be bent and
gnarled in old age.
Slowly there came the knowledge
that rheumatism is due to a poison
In the blood, and has nothing to do
with hard work or the weather. Now
we know that rheumatism affects the
heart.
In British ministry of health re-
port, Sir George Newman says that
almost all deaths from heart disease
of people under forty are caused by
the effects of rheumatic infection
The nature of the infection has still
to be discovered, and research work
in this direction is badly needed.

A colored man being interviewed by

ARRAY gave TO the world this bit of
philosophy:
"Ah didn't see nothin' so ah don't

"You all know, boss, spends six
months of every year 'tendin' nah
own business and all spends the other
six months of the year tryin' to keep
from 'tendin' other peoples business,
so all in all, Use busy man."-Bir.

Earning Praise or Blame

What people say of us after we are
dead matters little so far as we are
concerned. What they say of us while
living may be of utmost Importance to
us. Yet for the one as well as for the
other we are very largely responsible.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27-One O. the 'fbables" of the seventy-firsf congress is very apt to prove 8 precocious infant. While he is a newcomer to public life in Wash inglton, or anywhere else, he is a congressional press gallery vet eran of mere than a quarter cen tury of mighty strenuous news gCtting.
 If there is any trick of the trade in the Senate or House Louis Ludlow, Democrat, rcpresentativo- elect from .he redoubtable Repu1- liean stronghold, the Seventh h. diana, does not know, the Bystand- CT would be overwhelmingly sur prised.
 lt's easy to sympathize with the feelings of Ralph Updyke, incum- bent Republican from the Sev- enth. To be unseated in a very off year for Dem 3crats and See .siiis opponent carried into c1sice by majority of 6,380 votes when the district also gave Hoover a majority oi 3G,000, must have been shock Ludlow was the only Democratic newcomer to beat hle Hoover landslide except for con- tested case in Texas. where nor mally there are lots of Democrats Sanyhow.
 Personal Victory
 In the Seventh Indiana. which takes in Indianapolis and 22 towns in Marion county, Democrats usual ly have been few and far between. What put Louie" across undoubt- edly was his own personality, known these many years t0 the home folks through his news writ .sings from Washington. and the solid support of his newspaper brethern regardless of party pref erences.
 - Incidentally, Ludlow's first cleo l tive office was as vice presidens of the National Press club in Wash ington. Having decided he would like the job, he circularized the club membership to t h e effect. saying he knew of no good rea- son he should have it. but wanted it nevertheless. That so tickled his fellows that he went in a. whooping, became president of the club in due order, developed a taste for public speaking and even blossomed like rose, sartorially speaking.
 Also, the political office seeking germ having been merely latent in -~him as it seems to be in most Hoosier staters, he got a yearning Y for a seat in the house and cap tured it to the surprise of every ls body, including himself

Chronic acidity and gas rob your blood of the red
