Stefansson, the well-known Arctic
explorer, says that there is no conf

the North pole. On the edge of Mel
vile island, 600 miles north Of the
Arctic circle, Stefansson found that
In midwinter there was enough twi-
light to allow one to read a newspa-
per out of doors from 10 a. m. to
200 p. m. Even at midnight there
was not pitch darkness, such as is
found in the temperate or tropic
zones. The sky may be clouded and
the moon below the horizon, but it
is possible to see man at a distance
Of several hundred yards, for as the
ground is covered with snow the

Nothing but a fog or thick snow
storm at night can produce in the
Arctic the equivalent of our temper
ate zone or tropical pitch darkness.

harvests and weather forecasts-and
show that the Chinese then con-
suited their ancestors for the details
of everyday life. The ostensible
agency was the scorching of bones
and tortoise plastrons (Which often
were used also for the inscriptions)
and the resulting cracks conveyed
the answer. 1t can be inferred that
the duty of the Interpretation must

Scientific exploration in China
dates from 1920, when DR.. ]. G.
Anderson and his associates started
to excavate prehistoric deposits In
the northern part of the country.
They found pottery, particularly a
painted ware, which suggested hith-
erto unsupported affinities with neo-
llthic culture as far to the west as
Europe.
The first organized field investiga-
ton Of Bronze age relics was begun
in the fall of 1928 by Chinese ex-

the one near An-Yang. Since then
digging has been carried on at inter-
walls, and although four volumes Of
reports have been published in Chi

Scientific archaeology, only recently
applied to Chinese antiquities, is
pushing the history of that most an
cient civilization back many CEN
turtles to about the Sixteenth CEN
fury, B. G., and may some day ex-
plain the mystery Of its origins and
relations with the West, according to
Prof. w. Perceval Let's of London.
Recent research has thrown much
light on the Shang-Yin dynasty, last
ing from the Sixteenth century to the
Eleventh B. G. Formerly, the earli-
est limit of exact chronology was
taken to be 841 B. 9.
About 1890 an event occurred
which started a new trail of investi-
cation. This was the fall Of a river
bank, some two miles northwest Of
An-Yang In northern Honan, which
brought to light numerous inscribed
fragments of bone and tortoise
shell. These were collected by peas
ants and sold, some of them COM
Ing into the hands of a high official
In Peiping.
His collection was sold, and from
this and other collections a thou
sand fragments were chosen and
published in 1903 through the me-
dunn Of photo-lithographic linked
sQueezes.
The number of fragments was
increased through subsequent finds.
Probably more than 100000 have
been recovered. They proved to be
the archives Of official OWNERS at
the capital of the Shang-Yin dynasty,
which was supplanted by the Chou
about the middle of the Eleventh
century B. @. Most of the inscrip-
lions on the relics are oracular SEN
fences recording the questions ad-
dressed to, and sometimes the re-

First Steam Engine Was
Used AWAY Back in 1898

While James Watt Is generally cred
tied with being the inventor respon-
sible for the development of the steam
engine, patent records show that an
Englishman, Thomas Savery, devised
a water-raising engine in 1893. This
was really the first steam engine to
be put to practical use, being employed
in raising water from coal mine, says
Pathfinder Magazine. The first prac-
teal piston-type steam engine was pat
ented by Thomas Newcomer and his
assistant, James Cawley, In 1705. This
proved Immediately that this type was
far more practical than Savery's en-
CINE, both in number Of uses and fuel
consumed. improvements made on the
Newcomer engine from 1853 to 1871
by James Watt gradually brought
steam into Industrial use. In 1882
Watt departed radically from prin-
ciples of the earlier engines and de-
vised the double action type, the fore
runner of the giant engines.
The introduction Of steam marked
the end of the supremacy of sailing
vessels. In 1886 James Rumsey pro-
PEELED a boat on the Potomac river
at a speed Of four miles an hour
through use of power pump. About
the same time an Englishman, James
Fitch, utilized steam engine to OPP
crate his oar-driven steamboats,. In
1901 the paddle-wheel was introduced
in a steam towboat operating on the
Forth and Clyde canal. 1t was the
work Of this strange craft that in
spired Robert Fulton to build his
steamboat, the Clermont, in 1907.

MRS. WILLIAMS GAINS RELIEF FROM
PNEUMATIC" PAINS
DR.. W. E. Fitch Explains why
Natural Mineral Water Often
Helpful In Chronic Ailments

Mrs. H. Williams, 10 Princeton
Street, Clifton, New Jersey, writes:
II suffered very badly with rheuna-
tism but after taking Crazy Water
Crystals I am different person. They
are wonderful. / would not be without
them, they did me so much good"
Why is it that a fine natural min
eral water, made at home from Crazy
Water Crystals has benefited so
many thousands suffering from "rheu-
matte" pains and other chronic all
ments9
d.. w. E. Fitch, noted medical
authority on mineral water, in a re-
cent radio talk over the National
Broadcasting System stated:
For many years, it has been nys-
terry even to the medical world just
how natural mineral waters produced
the amazing results that have made
them so popular. Scientific and medi-
cal discoveries and research IN the
last few years, however, are penetrat-
ing these secrets Of Nature, so that
now medical men have new UNDER
standing of the reasons for the power
of natural mineral water to relieve
suffering. One of these reasons is
what is known as secondary mineral
ization, by which is meant that not
only the predominating chemical con-
stituents of a mineral water are of
aid but also what are known as the
secondary minerals-those present in
infnitesimal quantities. The very fact
of their being present in this way
causes them to have much more
powerful systemic effect than if they
were there in larger quantities. Let
me recommend wholeheartedly to suf-
ferers from chronic diseases the use
of suitable natural mineral water
as a powerful adjuvant"
