without astronomical analogy. We
find herds of meteOric particles

Modest Scot Savts Eighty Men

Marshall, with his knowledge OF the

to safety from the 'black damp
which filled the mine following the
explosion. Leaving the mine only
long enough to come to the surface
to make a report, Marshall spent 2S

sound instantly Mackie ran from the

Breathless from running, Mackle

three of six men who had escaped

Then Mackie started down the l76-

National Museum in Washington.
The most conspicuous scar on the
earth's surface known to man is
probably the great meteor crater
southwest from Flagstaff, Arizona
There is every indication that this
crater. measuring a mile and a half
in diameter, was the direct result of
the collision of considerable mass
of meteoric matter with the earth's
surface. Thousands of fragments of
meteoric iron have been found in it's
vicinity. Deep borings by various
mining companies have failed to un-
earth any single large mass. 1t is
extremely doubtful that very big
meteor such as would have produced
this crater could have landed intact.
The very close correspondence be
tween the orbits of meteoric swarms
and orbits of certain comets gives
very good evidence for assuming
that the head of comet and a con-
centrated flock of meteors is much
one and the same thing. 1t seems
probable therefore that in examin-
ing a typical meteoric specimen we
are handling at close range some of
the same sort Of stuff that goes to
make up the head of comet. Oc-
cluded gases, liberated from the
nucleus in comets head may be
responsible for considerable por-
tion of the luminous tail which so
Enthusiastically streams into space

Naked eye observations of me-

their paths among the stars lead to
important data concerning the
whereabouts of these celestial vaga-
bonds and are welcome information

STOP BAD BREATH

Thousands of people afflicted with
bad breath find quick relief through
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets. The
pleasant, sugar-coated tablets are
taken for bad breath by all who know.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets act
gently but firmly on the bowels and
liver, stimulating them to natural
action, clearing the blood and gently
purifying the entire system. They do
that which dangerous caIomel does
without any of the bad after effects.
Olive Tablets brings no gripping
pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after 20 years of practice
among patients afflicted with bowel
and liver complaint, with the atten-
dant bad breath.
Olive Tablets are purely a vegetable
compound; you will know them by
their olive color. Take nightly for
week and note the effect. 15c, 30c, 60c.

of meteors are observed in a single
night, the term meteoric shower is
applied to this occurrence.
If practiced observer were to
trace on suitable map of the sky
every trail left by one of these
shooting stars" he would discover
that many of these trails seem to
the constellation of Leo. which
stands well above the eastern
horizon between two and four in the
morning, in the early part of No
vember. This particular shower is
therefore frequently termed the
shower of the Leonids.
The Leonids happen at this par
ticular time in November because it
is then that the earth in it's orbit
about the sun crosses the track
along which the meteors are known
to congregate. Every 33 years the
earth runs amuck of the center of
population of the herd, with the
result that some unusually con-

this interval. The last of these un-
usual displays occurred in 1899
1900. The next major display may
be expected in 1928. AS the
larger members Of the herd are al
ready approaching the earth's orbit
it may very well be that the fall of
1881 may produce a larger display
than has been seen for some years
and even considerable number
may be evident this fall.
In November in 1866 and in 1888
SO gorgeous was the display of
shooting stars" that many, ignor.
ant of their astronomical signifi-
canoe, thought that the end of the
world had come. During these
showers it not infrequently happens
that some of the meteors are Of suf-
ficient size to completely penetrate
the earth's atmosphere and fall to
the ground, burying themselves in
land or sea. Many of these objects
have been recovered and have be-
come conspicuous specimens in our
museums. The largest of these ce-

These nerves, where they leave the

Shooting Stars
Someone assured me that the 9TH
er night he saw a real star skyrocket
across the sky and disappear above
the eastern horizon. He wanted an
explanation of why star should
suddenly perform thus. Was this a
star he had seen before?
Certainly" came an answer to
the inquiry. 1T was one of the stars
very near the Dipper."
This led me to wonder how many
otherwise intelligent people have
actually thought that shooting
star" was really the flight of star
through space and that the number
of the remaining stars was reduced
by one as the result of such an acci-
dent.
In the strict meaning of the word,
a shooting star" is no star at ALL
The term is in every sense a mis-
nomer The name meteor is a much
more exact description of the affair.

the fatal gas took its toll is illus.
trated by the picture of the Oman
residence, taken from the air shaft.
The Oman home is located directly
over the spot where the explosion
occurred. 1t is roughly 500 feet from
the air shaft. Had the miners and
inspection party been able to get to
the shaft and pure air they might
nave lived, but they were brought
down after they had travelled about

that the shovel and heavy two by

YOUR SPINE AND HEALTH

To many people it may seem a far
fetched idea for the chiropractor to
confine his work to the spine alone
when perhaps remote parts of the
body are diseased. Superficial
thought would seem to indicate that
the organ or part affected should be
dealt with. The same person who
holds this contention, however,
thinks nothing of it when he walks
into the modern living room and
pushes the wall switch to light the
globe suspended from the ceiling
In the latter case, he realizes that a
contact is made which forms a con-
nection between the source of the
current and the globe itself.
