Last Third of Cigarette
Contains Most Nicotine

"Cold hands, warm heart" the
old saying goes.
The Northwestern National Life
Insurance company recently mod
ernized the axiom to cold hands,
glowing cigarette. A study of the eff
fects of smoking released by the
firm included the statement:
eff your hands and feet are ha-
bitually cold, smoking will make
them colder. Though there is much
dispute among medical authorities
about some of the effects of tobac-
CO, there is universal agreement that
it slows down the blood flow to the
hands and feet"
The study also looked into the
matter Of smoking mothers to dis
cover that about SO per cent of hos
pital maternity cases smoke nova
days as compared to one young
mother out of five who smoked 10
years ago and virtually none 70
years ago.
"Tests have indicated" the re-
port stated, "that there is little or
no danger of nicotine reaching the
infant through the mothers milk If
she smokes less than half a dozen
cigarettes day; tests made with
heavy smokers show definite nico-
tine content in the milk"
The last third of the cigarette or
cigar gives off as much as Sc per
cent more nicotine if smoked rap
idly, the study finds, because of the
increase in moisture content, the
shorter filtering, and the previous
accumulation of chemicals from the
outer two-thirds.

Original Declaration of !
independence Changed

Thomas Jefferson spent is days
writing the Declaration of Independ-
ence.
The average age of the men whose
names were signed to the document
was As. Benjamin Franklin was the
patriarch of the group-71 years old.
In Jefferson's first draft of the
Declaration Of Independence APP
peared the words, "all men are Gre
ated equal and independent" For
some reason the words land indie
pendent" were later scratched out.
New York city didn't receive Of
fetal notice of the signing of the
Declaration of Independence until
five days had elapsed after the af-
fixing of signatures.
The official Declaration of indie
pendence was signed by Sc men, and
is on exhibition in Washington, D. c.,
today. The original document had
but two signers-John Hancock,
president of the congress, and
Charles Thompson, secretary. The
public has never seen this historic
paper. It was an engrossed copy
of this that was signed by Hancock
and SIS other men.
: The Declaration of independence
was signed by some men who were
not present and not signed by others
who were present, says Rupert
Hughes, historical authority.
The Liberty Bell did not ring out
the news of the signing, as popular
ly supposed. The ringing of the his
toric bell did not begin till July 8,
and then it lasted all night long.

FARM CASH FOR LIVING

Generally speaking, farmers are
going to have more money this year
than they've had for good many
years. We want to put this money to
good use. We don't want to waste
money on luxuries. We don't want to
boom land prices up to $500 an acre.
OF course, we're going to see that
the family is as well fed, well
clothed and well housed as possible;
is kept healthy and strong. Thereby
we can make a great contribution
to victory. After our families needs
are taken care of there may be some
money left over. All right, what
about debts--mortgage loans or chat
tel loans? Let's get them paid off--or
reduced as much as possible. And in
additian--let's put as much money
as possible into a place whore it
will help win the war--I mean into
Defense Savings Bonds.

Every dairyman who has gone out to
buy replacement stock knows how hard
1t is to obtain just what he wants. Nat
urally, the man with surplus stock
wants to keep the best heifers for the
improvement of his own herd and that
leaves only those of poorer quality
available for the buyer.
But many dairymen have Stunned
the idea of raising replacement dairy
stock because they believed it unprofita-
BILE, as well as extremely bothersome.
This opinion, however, is contrary
to the belief of D. H. Van Pelt, dairy
specialist with Purina Mills. He says
that its actually more profitable, as well
as preferable, for each dairyman to
produce his own replacement stock.
He uses tests conducted at the Purina
Experimental Farm, Gray Summit, Mo-,
to prove his contention. At the time
the Purina Holstein herd was pur-
chased in 1928, he says, the average
production of the herd was $500 pounds
of milk. Last year, the average pro-
duction of the herd was 1918 pounds.
According to Van Pelt, every single
animal in this herd is a descendant

INSTRUCTORS IN MOTOR
TRANSPORT

Motor transport has assumed such
a vital role in defense activity that
the United States Civil Service Com
mission has announced an examina-
ton for instructors in over ten
branches of the automotive indus
try. The instructors are needed by
the Quartermaster Corps Of the War
Department. Salaries range from
$4,000 to $4,000 year. There is
excellent opportunity for advance
ment, since the policy of the Quar-
termaster Corps will be to Ali higher
positions by promotion from lower
grades whenever possible.
Full information as to the re-
quirements for these examinations,
and APPLICATION forms, may be obtain

King George Regained Throne

ming george ReSdlHCU AMEVM0
The Greeks kicked him out, then
called him back to rule them. Thus
George II, king of the Hellenes, is
one of few monarchs who has lost
and regained crown.
George fled Greece in 1928, dur
ing an uprising against him, year
after his accession. A republic was
established by plebiscite in 1924, con-
tinued for 10 years. Then the
Greeks, following democratic prin-
ciples which governed ancient Ath-
ems, voted again, this time to restore
the monarchy. George returned,
but the late Premier John Metaxas
was made virtual dictator.
George II is no Greek, but a Dane.
When Greek independence was
achieved in 1929, Prince Otto Of
Bavaria was given the crown. He
ruled for 20 years, was expelled
in 1862. Prince William, son Of
King Christian TX Of Denmark, was
elected king, became George I. He
was assassinated in 1918, succeeded
by Constantine, who was deposed
by Allied Powers in 1917.

Tailless Sheep

Sheep without tails have been de-
veloped by the South Dakota expert
ment station, it was recently an
nounced, after experimenting for Is
years in cross-breeding head of
sheep imported from Siberia with
American sheep.
Advantages of the tailless breed
of sheep are many, according to the
animal husbandmen-they are very
hardy and good hustlers of their
own food; they have no tails to be
docked and there is an absence Of
blow flies common with long or i'm
perfectly cut tails.
The first sheep, both male and fe-
male produced without tails was in
1924 after about 10 years of expert
menting. It is believed that this
flock of sheep is the only one of its
kind in the world.

Taxicab Drivers Hope
For Rain, Cold Always

If cab drivers had their way, ev-
cry hour of the day would be thst
from to 8 p. m. and, preferably,
with the rain coming down By the
bucketful.
Day in and day out, more people
want cabs between and 8 p. m.
than at any other hour. That is the
peak period on nearly all days of the
week and in all except a few sum-
mer months, according to surveys
made by the Yellow Cab company
covering the last years.
But on Saturday night Mr.. and
Mrs.-and their offspring stay up
late, and the rush hour is between
/ and 2 a. m. The hour from to 8
a. m. is always heavy and frequently
tops the z to hour which, though
not in first place Saturday nights, Is
well up among the leaders.
The night demand for cabs fuctu-
ates. After the peak is reached at
p. m. there is practically always
a drop for two hours, and another
rise from 10 to II or II to II p. m.
when people are emerging from
theaters and other entertainment
places.
On weekdays throughout the year
there is steady rise in the requests
for cabs from z through 8 a. m,
due chiefly to the number of persons
taking cabs to work. After a. m.
there is a drop until the afternoon,
when the demand again increases.
Winter is the busiest season in the
cab business, and summer the dull

No Milk After First Month
When growing out the requirements
for this herd, not a drop Of milk is fed
after the heifer calves are a month old.
Instead, they receive Calf Startena, q
dry feed ration which this Farm has
found to give extremely good results,
up to sixteen weeks. From then until
freshening they are fed Purina Dry and
Freshening Chow, a special body build
ing feed, with roughage.
This plan has proven so satisfactory
that Holstein heifers at the Purina
Farm freshen at about "A months
of age, Weighing approximately 1900
pounds. This is three to four months
earlier than the average for the breed.
and the weight is the same as that
ordinarily expected for % to 30-month-
old heifers.

ment, and unfold it's infinite mean
ings. These teachings are humanity's
beacon lights; they need to be UNDER
stood. They show us how to live
BEAUTIFULLY, happily, peacefully; how
to establish true and lasting friend
ships, how to live in the comfort of
Gods abundant goodness.
In the light of Christian Science it
is seen that mortal, material existence
is a dream Of life, substance, and in
telligence in matter, and that it is
therefore separate from, and unknown
to God. The textbook of Christian
Science, "Science and Health with Key
to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy, makes this quite clear to those
who study it in connection with the
Bible. We learn from these books how
to awaken from the mesmeric belief
of material living. Those who follow
closely their teachings are enabled to
attain to demonstrable understand
ing of Life; also it becomes quite
clear to them that there is nothing 80
ennobling as the constant endeavor to
progress beyond the limiting beliefs
of material living to higher and higher
concepts Of that which Mrs. Eddy
terms "the Life divine" In this text
book she states Up. 14), Entirely
separate from the belief and dream of
material living, is the Life divine, re-
vealing spiritual understanding and
the consciousness of mans dominion
over the whole earth. This UNDER
standing casts out error and heals the
sick, and with it you can speak 'as
one having authority"
Does it not, then, seem reasonable
that everyone should desire to awaken
from the discomforting, false sense Of
existence, and gain the realization Of
what Life really is? It is our privi-
lege to enjoy here and now the bless
ings which "Life divine" confers-
happiness, peace, harmony, well-being,
an enlightened consciousness. Many
are doing SO, but the majority Of peo-
pie still consider that the attainment
of such blessings here on this planet
is something that is too good to be
true. Christian Science shows by its
demonstrations that nothing can be
too good to be true, and that joyous
and harmonious existence is the right
full heritage Of all Gods children.
True Thinking and Its Benefits
The way to Danish the belief and
dream of material living and claim
our rightful heritage is made clear
in the Christian Science textbook.
Briefly stated, the important thing 10
to change ones thinking from mate
rial to spiritual basis, to learn to
think in terms Of Spirit instead of
matter. In other words, we should
endeavor to entertain in our con-
seriousness only what is good and true.
For our own sakes, as well as for the
sake of others, we should be alert to
keep out Of our consciousness what
ever is not good. Jealous, envious,
resentful, critical, selfish, and impure
thoughts have bad physical effects;
they do much harm. Contrariwise,
unselfsh and loving thoughts, thoughts
that are "true," "honest," "just,"
pure" lovely" and "of good report"
to quote the Apostle Paul, are most
salutarv.
