CIGARETTES.

Sixty per cent of all babies born
from Understanding mothers die
before they reach the age of two, due
primarily to nicotine poisoning, DIR.
Chauncey L. Barber, Lansing, Michi-
gan, asserted at the annual conven-
ton of the American Association for
Medico-Physical Research. As the
nervous system was easily poisoned
by nicotine, it was possible for a per-
son to get drunk on tobacco as well
as on alcohol or opium, he said, and
cases of delirium tremens produced by
tobacco were on record. DR.. Barber
said: Il find that SO per cent of the
cases dealing with the use of marco
tics, drugs, morphine, cocaine and
heroin give a history of the early
use of tobacco. A prolonged use of
tobacco is frequent cause of in
sanity. A baby born of a cigarette
smoking mother is sick. 1t is pois-
oned, and may die within two weeks
of birth. The post-mortem shows de-
generation of the liver, heart and
other organs" The evil effects of
cigarettes upon boys are evident be-
yond all argument. A young woman
who smokes cigarettes undoubtedly
invites comment of not very COM
plimentary character. Neither does
a cigarette have a place in any ade-
quate portrayal of a Christian mo-
Their. Nothing more rapidly coarsens
manners and cheapens reputation and
makes pathway for disease than the
habitual use of the cigarette. Am

Question-What is a Light Year?
Answer-A Light Year is unit of
measurement used in estimating as
Economical distances. Light travels
$4,000 miles per second. In year
it will travel 100000, 100000 miles.
ssss
When one views the heavens on
clear night, the light that is seen
IN the numerous star clusters in the
Milky Way, is light that was emit
ted $4,000 light years ago and is just
now reaching the earth.
ssss
The Milky Way is family lumi-
nous tract in the heavens composed of
stars and nebulous masses. It is
watch-like disk of overwhelming ex-
tent. Our sun, with its eight plan
cts, is located on the rim of this disc
travelling through space at the rate
of 200 miles per second.
ssss
Life as we know it, does not exist
on the stars, as they are gaseous
hot and molten like our sun. Planets
no doubt exist in the stellar universe
with suitable physical conditions to
harbor organic life.
ssss
In the experimental laboratory of
Princeton college the professors have
successfully produced an imitation
of the Northern Lights. 1t was found
that definite mixture of oxygen
and nitrogen gas excited by an cleo
trical discharge caused the Aurora
green color of the Northern Lights.
ssss
A new red arc light, using Neon
gas, has been perfected by the Gen
eral Electric company. This lamp
has strong power of penetrating
thick fog and smoky atmosphere and
will be in great demand for guide
lights on our future landing fields.
ssss
Biology is the science of life. 1t
treats of organisms. In common
usuage it implies the study of origin,
development, structure, function and |
distribution of all plants and animals.
Ssss
In the John Day Gorge in the state
Of Oregon, scientists have discovered |
30 layers of lava between which the
fossil remains of forests were found.
Most of the varieties of tree speci-
mems were of extinct species. The
growth and size of the tree trunks
between the layers of lava make an
ndex for estimating the time period
n which these deposits were formed.

Many square miles of land are re-
ported slowly rising out of the sea in
he region of Cooks Inlet. Many
rumblings in this neigh
'orhood have been recorded and some
-olcanic activity can be expected to
inish up the mountain building cy-
lie.
sSsS
The reason that the fossil remains
shells and plant life are the most
found is on account of the
lethod Of distribution. The spores
shells are brought to a layer by
waters, and the plant

per the purchasers chance for fay-
orable decision. Dooley always post
poned all his cases until after cleo
ton his theory being IF they has
a case in my court they'll be wise if
they get out and put me over, see?n
On one occasion he fined his best
friend, saloon keeper, $500 for keep
ing open on Sunday and the dry ele-
ment We're solid for Dooley. What
they did not know, however, was that
Dooils h..di privately RENTED the
fine. Afterward he said: THE law
to fine him is in the book, and I done
that; so the law was kept, see?n
Commenting on being a judge he
once said: " IT'S poor business be-
ing judge, sure it's nothing but
troubles you hear all the time. I has
no jail but an old hen house wild
paddock on it and they was one lad
cut his way out with jack knife.
They's hain't hardly none of the fell
lers arrested what has money, but if
they does I generally fines them what
they has, see; that away I manage

His principal source of revenue
was from fishermen who fshed with
out license for whom he made a
flat rate of $3.50 or go to the hen
house, If they paid the fine they
could fish all they liked without IL
cense. He ran into one fisherman
tho who wouldn't stand hitched, Sen
ator Simon P. Donnelly, a big 6-foot-
er who was fishing and Dooley APP
preached him. Sorry, senator, but
yous have no license and I must en-
force the law to the extent of $3.50,
see?@ The Senator laughed at him
and said: "Say, you little lepre-
chaun, get back to your tailor shop
or I'll throw you in the lake and see
that you don't get OUT "Glory be,
Senator" said Dooley, Cant you
be after takin' g joke? I'd as soon
think Of finin' my own brother. Sure,
l just wanted to get raise out of
you" and the Judge walked off
leaving the Senator to his fishing.
