Toward noon there to his numbed sensibilitles
the suggestion of human voices not far distant.
Quickly he shook himself in. an attempt to con-
centrate his waning faculties. He listened intently
and with renewal OF strength, rose to MS Ieet.
Cautiously he crawled forward Now he heard the
words of white people At turn in the trail he
saw clearing beside muddy stream In it was
q rude hut matched with grasses.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-03-26

Eagerly he dragged his steps toward 1t. He heard
q woman's voice raised in anger and the deep tones
of man replying. The mans voice was that of the
supposed dead Esteban and the womans voice be-
longed to Flora Hawkes.. Kraski called ESteban
by name and the false Tarzan, followed by the girl
came from the hut. Had Kraski not heard his
voice, he would have thought Esteban Tarzan
of the Apes, SO remarkable the resemblance.

Night found Carl Kraski still cold and hungry, and
painting from exhaustion. He slept in the crotch of
great tree while the hunting carnivora roared
and growled through the blackness of the jungle
about him. Shivering with terror he would start to
wskefuness as the long hours Of a fearful night
dragged out until it seemed that dawn would never
come But come it did and once again he took up
his stumbling way toward the west

The country at large has been experiencing the warmest fall weather we have had in years, and therefore one feels that she must almost stretch her imagination to realize that winter is just around the corner. During the warm fall the family diet was changed little, for the food requirements remained about the same, but when the north wind blows, the wise homemaker includes heat or energy giving foods, such as pork sausage, shoui- der pork chops and an increased amount of butter and margarine in the family diet.
 For Sunday night suppers. or after . brisk hike, or evening in the open there is nothing 50 satis- lying as pork sausage with waffles. If the members of your family have q long hike to school in the morn- ing there are few winter break lasts 50 relished and so suitable as sausage links with buckwheat cakes and syrup. . fruit in season would naturally precede this dish and Q hot beverage would give added zest.

 How to Prepare Pork Sausage

Re- move cover and brown links. Serve with hot wheat cakes and syrup, waffles, poached eggs, fried apples or toast.

hour during their Imprisonment. For the first eighteen days of the procedure a normal was estab- lished, during which the men re- tired each night at a definite hour, without taking nourishment of any kind. For the following 10 days a cup of hot water was given each one before he retired, and during the To-day period following. a cup of coffee was given each subject. For the period when o nourish- ment was taken on going to bed, the mean average number of move- ments per hour of sleep was 9.8. When hot water was taken, the av- craze went down to 8.5, and when each subject drank cup of coffee, the average was further reduced to 7.3 movements per hour.
 While the results obtained can- not be construed to apply to each particular individual, they do give an indication applying to normal, healthy persons" the report point ed out.

HOT FLUIDS ARE
 AID TO SLEEP

Sacramento, Cal --(UP)- Does coffee keep you awake nights?
 A practical test conducted by the hospital stan of the California state prison at San Queintin would indicate the answer should be in the negative, providing Q person is normally healthy.
 Tn report including the results of the novel coffee test, 1t was pointed out that "there Is an indi- cation that the taking of hot fluid on going to bed induces a more restful night than when not taken. There also is an indication that the taking of coffee on retiring induces a more restful night than when no coffee is taken.
 Tn making the survey, Q device was made by inmate technicians to record the movements of and changes of position of the subjects during sleep.
 Seven men were selected for the tests. These men were considered excellent subjects. in that they were all in good health, their daily rout- inc varied only slightly, they had no alcohol or other stimulants, and had retired every night at the same

Great WhirIpooIS

DR. STETSON points out the con-
H nection between sun spots and
radio. Sun spots are now known to
be whirlpools upon the surface of
the sun. In one respect these whirl-
pools are like gigantic cannon, for
they lombard the earth with cleo
irons, the tiny particles of negative
electricity.
This electron bombardment eff
fects the Kennedy Heaviside layer
in the earth's atmosphere. This
layer, more often referred to mere
ly as the Heaviside layer is a layer
Of electrified or ionized air about
fifty miles above the earth'S sur
face.
Radio waves travel up to this
! layer and then are reflected back
to the earth's surface. Consequently,
any change in the Heaviside layer
has an effect upon radio reception.
Amy change in the intensity or
degree of ionization or electrifica-
ton of this layer would have the
effect of bending the radio waves
more abruptly or less abruptly to-
ward the earth's surface" DR.. Stet-
son says. This would have
marked effect upon the intensity
of reception.
when sun spots increase, the de-
gree of ionization increases. This
has the effect of lowering the Hesv-
iside layer and decreasing radio re-
cepticn.
When sun spots decrease, the de-
gree of ionization decreases and ra-
dio conditions improve"
