That electricity can be produced
by means of machinery and by the
use of chemicals is we'll known.
That certain fish can produce it in
their own bodies on a scale large
enough TO kill a man is not so easily
understood-eXcept by those unfor-
tunates who have actually received
shocks from these Giving batteries"
writes the contributor of this article
to London Answers.
The most powerful of all electric
fish is the electric eel, fish about
9 or s feet long.
This fish has the electric organs,
which are composed of soft, jelly
like substance, situated in the tail.
The potency of the shock received
from this formidable fish depends on
the way in which it is discharged,
being greatest when the head and
tail Of the fish are simultaneously in
contact with the body of the victim
on which occasions a blue-white
spark IS actually emitted.
The electric eel is emphatically a
dangerous fish, capable in certain
circumstances of even killing a man.
Not many months ago one of the
aquarium keepers at the zoo went
on the sick list as a direct result of
receiving a shock of some 400 volts
from one Of them.
Almost as dangerous is the African
catfish, or 'raad' (the Arab name
for "thunder"). Though not so large
as the electric eel-it rarely exceeds
feet in length-it is capable of Civ
ing its victim very powerful shocks
which prevent all further motion for
the time being.
The electric organs of the catfish
are distributed over the entire body
and lie just below the skin. Not
long ago the zoo was fortunate
enough to obtain a small specimen.
When touched by human hands it
gave a shock which was clearly felt
up to the elbow.
Then the electric rays can also give
fairly powerful galvanic shocks.
These rays, often over 4 feet long
and a couple in width, have the cleo
trio organs situated on the head, and
as they are occasionally found off
the British coast and in the English
channel, prospective channel swim
mers must beware!

Russian Touch Is Seen
in Headgear and Shoes

We must not forget, during the
big collections of winter clothes for
the smart woman. now being shown
here. that the head and feet are
just as important. There is a very
strong Russian influence In hat
models. Cossack caps and kid
shoes, for instance.
One of Lucille Paray's models
wore a pair of those high-pointed
hack shoes we mentioned not long
ago. This particular design is be
ing experimental with by all of the
leading hooters, but especially by
Costa, who feels that ii answers a
need for an original thought in
shoes. The high back line follows
the line of the ankle quite snugly.
and ending in point, it is very
fattering to the leg.

How One Woman
Lost 10 Lbs. in a Week

Mrs. Betty Luedeke of Dayton
writes: Il am using Kruschen to
reduce weight lost 10 pounds in
one week and cannot say too much

To take off fat easily. SAFELY
and HARMLESSLY-ta one-half
teaspoonful of Kruschen in a glass
of hot water in the morning before
breakfast, go lighter on fatty meats,
potatoes, butter, cream and pastries
it is the safe way to lose insight

weeks costs but a trifle. Get it at
any drugstore in America. If this

significant. for seldom occurs a sea

A gracefully draped peplum distin-
guishes the blouse which H. made
of quality-kind white satin. The
skirt and the lower portion of the
sleeve are of black velvet. The
idea of combining satin and velvet
is one which many style leaders are
advancing. OF course there must
be a touch of fur. which in this in

the late mode Of making up satin

Howard j. Douglass, secretary
of the Middleboro chamber of

privacy has been violated many
times by persons pushing them
selves in without authority and
exploiting their condition before
the eyes of the world"
The citizens feel they have en-
countered two obstacles in their
relief work:
(1) The floating population
that is in every mining section
Persons who have never worked

Charles Neville Buck, author,
who has spent much of his life in
the Cumberland mountains, told
me that when miners were earn

into better houses or to buy their

there should be considerable of

thousands of people can be sup

cure all manner of illness.
1t is no unusual sight to see
from SO to 100 pilgrims vending
their way to the church each day,
many footsore and weary, others
arriving in state in automobiles
or wagons. From as far south as
Chihuahua. Mexico, to the north
ern boundaries of Colorado, they
come.
For several generations the
church was privately owned, Don
Bernardo having willed the
church to his daughter, Carmen,
upon ihs death. 1t was the girls

perfect order during her lifetime
Within the past few years it has
come into the possession of the
