How Years Affect the
 Brain of Human Beings

There is noteworthy change in the chemistry of tine brain from birth to old age, it is reported by Dr. Freder- ick Tilney. professor of neurology at Columbia university, and Joshua Ros. ett, in bulletin of the Neurological institute.
 In chemical analysis of 6S brains they found that the percentage of li- poids, or fats which cannot be decom- posed by alkalis, increases until mid dle life while the water content de- creascs. Then the amount remains stationary until between the ages of sixty and eighty, when the reverse process takes place and the lipoids give way to water.
 The greatest increase of lipods come near the end of the second year, and the largest increase noted from birth to middle age was s per cent.
 Generally, they conclude, this pro- gressive increase gives m index of brain development. It Is affected, however, by diseases and toxins.

How to Render First Aid"

When first aid has to be applied, remember that nothing has yet been invented by any chemist or druggist that takes the place of a pure soap and water scrub prolonged to get cleanliness" says Doctor Wilkes. "This provides 99-10O of the necessary precaution. Antiseptics give the final 1-100. Then after you have the spot clean, don't bind in the germs from a soiled handkerchief. Use sterile piece of cloth. In avoiding in- lection. time is an important factor. A tive-cent sterile gauge bandage, ap- piled to d cut after a good soap and water scrub, can do more in the first five minutes after the accident than the most experienced surgeon often can do several hours after.''

Pennsylvania's Land Deal

Pennsylvania had at first but four miles of territory on Lake Erie. This was at the western end of the county and adjoined the state of Ohio.

HOW

NAMES IN CHINESE ARE WRITTEN AND ARRANGED In China surnames are always written first. For instance, in . Sun Yat-sen "Sun" Is the sur name, while "Yat-sen" core spends to the occidental first, given or Christian name, as it is variously called. According to the prevailing practice of learned authorities and insti- tutionS, when Chinese name is written in English the surname is capitalized, while the two parts of the given name are hy- phenated and only the first part capitalized; as, Chiang Kali shek, Iii Hung-chang, and Chang Tso-ln. The division of Chi nese literature in the Library of Congress says that most Chi nese surnames consist of only one syllable, but there are several hundred dissyllabic surnames. When Chinese has such q sur name and given name, two hyhens are used; as, Ssu-ma HSiang-ju. In such cases only the first part of each hyphen- ated compound is capitalized. If Chinese has only two names both are written in up- per case without the hyphen; as, Chang Hung. When regular Chinese names like Sun Yat-sen and Chiang kai-shek are abbre- viated the angliciZed form and order ale usually followed; as, Y. $. Sun, k. s. Chiang, T. l.. Sung, II. J. Ssu-ma.-Pathfinder Magazine.

At various times during the past fifteen years there has been an .intimation that the Depal tment of Justice favored the combining of the Second and Fourth Judicial divisions of Alaska, so as to do away with one set of judicial offic- lals. It seems that this matter is now to be brought to a head through the preparation by the Department of a bill for introduction in Congress by Judiciary Committee which is brief but provides:
 That on and after July 1, 1882, there shall be only one district judge, one clerk of the court, one district attorney and one United States Marshal in and for the second and fourth divisions of the District of Alaska; provided, That the terms of office of the above named officials now serving in said divisions shall continue until twelve o'clock midnight, June 30 1882, or until their successors are appointed and qualify"

The other day in Washing ton a rummage sale was being held for the benefit of the Ketchikan hospital. It drew a large feminine crowd, as we'll as Representative Vincent Car ter from Wyoming. The latter, with his usual politeness doff- ed his new fedora and placed it on one of the counters as he wandered about the room. When his curiosity was satis- lied the Congressman sought his hat which had been sold, but he good naturedly left the store room bareheaded, de- claring that a man must make sacrifices for the unfortunate in these days of depression.

ficient altitude the flyers would turn
up the coast for Newfoundland. But
the plane continued numbering west
ward until 1t faded from sight. It was
generally supposed 1t had swung in a
wide circle and 80 was invisible from
the field as 1t struck its course for the
east, but nevertheless word was awaited
with some anxiety.
Frank Dordbandt. Alaskan pilot and
friend of Hugh Herndon, who few an
accompanying plane for 35 miles, said
on his return that Herndon and Pang-
born were riding at 100 miles an hour at
an altitude of 400 feet He said Hern-
Don took out his charts to map his route
at that point.
Changed Their Route.
Pangborn and Herndon knew where
they wanted to fly and thought they
knew what course they were going to
follow, but they found they were wrong
Their plan was to follow the Summer
steamer route due East for 400 miles
to what shipping men call The Cor
ner" and then turn Northeast toward
Britain. They thought this was all
settled.
Then Dr. Kimball arrived. He was
lined up with Pangborn and Herndon
on one side and Boardman and Po-
lando on the other, TO make little talk
for the newSreelS.
This is the first time" he said in
effect. that two planes have left to-
gether for Atlantic fights. And they
are both going to follow the Northern
route along the great circle by way OF
Newfoundland"
Followed Kimbal's Advice.
Pangborn looked at Herndon and
Herndon looked at Pangborn. Their
mouths fell open and their eyes popped
with establishment. They managed TO
hold their pace until the sound cam
eras were through. but then they con-
fronted DR.. Kimball.
You said great circle?" they asked
You said Newfoundland"
Then Dr. Kimball told them weather
conditions were SO much more favorable
over the great circle than over the more
southerly route that he strongly advised
the former.
You're the doctor" Pangborn and
Herndon agreed without a moments
hesitation great circle it Is" And a
few minutes later they were headed up
along the coast.

evening he does not plan at any time
to carry a fuel load of more than $50
gallons, though the plane has tank ca
pacity for a total of 536 gallons. He
expects to cruise with the motor thrOt-
tied well down to conserve fuel and t.
prevent straining the engine. He eSti-
mated that the cruising speed OF the
