that doughnuts are not fattening, as
professional jockeys eat them.

Heaven Not for White
Man, Irouuois Believe

There is belief among the Iro-
quois, that ancient American nation
Of hardy warriors, that no white man
has ever entered heaven, except
one. This exception was made to be-
stow upon lone white man the
greatest honor at the command of
the Indian-that of inclusion in his
religion. -. -.
Thus he-Iroquois, who struck such
terror to the hearts Of our fore
fathers during the early days of our
history. show their admiration and
gratitude to one of their former enc.
mics and greatest benefactors. Gen.
George Washington.
BY the peace Of 1888, between
England and the infant United States
Of America, the Iroquois were aban.
doned by their English allies and
thrown upon the mercy Of the Amer.
leans. At this critical moment,
Washington interviewed in their be-
half, protected their rights and
showed them such leniency and JUS
tice that the ''Hedenosaunee" or Iro-
quois believed that for his kindness
to the red man the Great Spirit pre-
pared a celestial residence for him
in their 'Hawenneyu" where he is
destined to remain through eternity
in solitary enjoyment, for no other
white man ever can enter the Indian
heaven.

Summers Getting Hotter,
Claims Weather Bureau

Many of us incline to grin indul-
gently when the old folks dash the
perspiration from their brows and
grumblingly assert that when they
were young the weather was pleas
ant in the summertime and not tor
rid as it is today. We wink and,
like as not, say to ourselves that
distant things seem pleasantest, and
the only reason why Dad and Grand
dad imagine those long-gone sum-
mers to have been more mild is be-
cause they are victims Of the very
human tendency to forget the un-
pleasant and recall only the serene
and balmy days.
However, we are wrong and the
old folks are right. The summers
are hotter now than they were when
the horseless buggy was an object
at which to cape. And If you have
any doubt about it, there are the
statistics of the weather bureau as
ineluctable proof Of the fact.
According to the bureaus charts
the average summer temperature
has jumped by at least three de-
grees during the last 20 years. This
is really a phenomenal advance.
and a rise Of an average Of three
degrees means but one thing-that
there have been a good many
scorching hot days.
The weather bureau is quite frank
in admitting that it does not know
how to account for this rise In gen.
eral summer temperature.

x. o. X.-Is my wife sweet
hearting on me? If she is say yes.
If she is not say no.
Ans: Yes but you have only
yourself to blame. You started the
sweethearting SO she decided that
what was good for you was good
for her. Now your marriage is on
the rocks. It will only be a matter
of time before you and she part for
good. If you ever decide to take
yourself another wife, my friend
play fair with her, or you'll
find yourself in the same predica-
ment you're in right now.
A. B.-Please tell me what I
should do about getting a sum of
money owed to me by a friend of
mine? Do you think this friend of
mine will ever pay me?
Ans: No, nam. I think, how
ever, that you will receive a small
part of the money owed to you but
not the entire amount. When bust
ness begins, friendship ceases. It
is my belief that you will lose most
of your money and also your
friend.
C. CT am living in a house
with a woman, we share the house
together fifty-fifty on rent and
lights. She got mad because said
something about her letting other
people use the lights and caused a
big fuss. Please tell me how she
feels and will we have to move?
Ans: The little extra money add
ed on the bill by her letting some
one else use the lights isn't enough
to squabble over. Say nothing more
about the matter and I am sure
everything will be all right. Next
year things will be different for I
am under the impression that you
will be successful in moving into
one of the project homes.
W. RI can't understand my
husband here lately, he acts so
strange I don't know what's come

CALCIUM
The Great Human
Need

People of all ages need calcium
and few today get a sufficient
amount of it for the greatest or
most abundant health.
The best and the cheapest source
of calcium is in dairy products.
The lower the income for food,
the greater the need for more of
dairy products is the regular every.
day diet of all of us.
Fresh fluid pasteurized milk
daily in some form should be used,
either as a beverage or in cooked
food.

Not far from the southern coast
of England is the Isle OF Wight
In summer it shows a beautiful
green landscape to travellers who
pass it on their way to or from the
port of Southampton.
To that island, in 1897, went Mar
conf. He had passed his 23d birth
day a few months before.
A pole 120 feet high was set up
on the Isle of Wight. 1t held wires
which were to be "antennas" or
"aerials" of wireless station. An
other station was placed on the CO.
foot mast Of steamer.
Tests were made day after day
The staemer sailed to a distance of
several miles and messages were sent
across the water from one station to
the other.
Two years later a wireless mes
sage was sent from England to
Italy. Some persons spoke of 1t as
q "Marconi-gram," and in that way
honored the young inventor.
Marconi was pleased by his sue
cess, but it wasn't enough to make
him rest. Why not send message
across the ocean
There seemed to be two good
reasons against success in wireless
across the ocean. One was the lack
of a sending station with enough
power to make message 60 as far
as that. Another was the belief
that the roundness of the earth

Bridge: Liable to doubled pen-

1t is estimated that about half of
those who play contract mispro-
nounce the first syllable to rhyme
with fun as 'VUN-er-a-ble."
(Renege is another bridge term
that is almost universally mispro-
nounced rec MIG" The second
syllable should rhyme with league:
'Ree- NEG"
1t is hard to believe that vulnera-
BILE and vulture have any connection.
Yet. according to etymologists, both
words are akin to the Latin weller,
to tear, to pluck.
The first syllable of vulnerable
should rhyme with Gull, dull, gull.
