Blackmer, missing Teapot Dome oil witness, for dismissal of contempt proceedings against the defendant, and restoration of SIOO,OOO .vorth of property seized from Blackinef pending sett lenient of the case.

Indeed, without such obedience, allegiance would be but an empty name."

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21. 1928.

Has Wide Variation Ceremonies nssoclntr ’ h the vnrl ' ous methods of disposing of dead the world over ure as interesting us they sre varied. Modern mttions ss well ns muny primitive mid orlentul peoples practice inhiinuithin, nnd with It their many mid pecullnr rites, But, us In bygone duys, funeral ceremonies of today tire most sacred and Impressive occasions. Cremutlon or the burning of deudx bodies to ashes, Is now practiced to a' l small extent in several countries, but Is by no menus new. soys the Path-l Under Magazine. At tlut beginning of the Christian era cremation was the prevailing custom of the civilized world, with the exception of Egypt.! where the dead were embalmed ; Judea, where they were entombed tn n sepulcher, nnd Chinn, where they were burled In the earth. Christian ln-f huinution, which is now universal, probably owes its origin to the doctrine of resurrection of the body. While cremation was practiced by the later Greeks, Romans, Danes and others, the first cremation societies were not formed until the Nineteenth century. This method of disposing of human bodies Is now urged by some health authorities on sanitary grounds. Love and Youth Can Always “Find a Way’* Will love find away? asks the Boston Globe, which then goes on to t<>ll this: The observer hud missed Ids train and was forced to wait an hoar for the next. As he walked through the crowd of passengers from an Incoming train he noticed the warmth of embrace of a young man and his girl friend. Apparently she was welcoming him home from a long trip. Ten minutes later he saw them in a strangle hold as a train emptied its passengers nt another gate. A« the crowd dispersed, they parted. The boy (friend was trailed to the waiting room, where he met the girl, greeted 'her sans embrace, and sat down for a chat again. As another train was announced, they again departed. The youib mingled with the incoming crowd nnd tlie girl ran up to meet hint. To the ordinary onlooker it was a fond welcome home, but to the observer it was an ingenious system of petting in public. Love will find a way. Concerning “Tightwads” You are a tightwad, says a government budget expert, if your living expenses are 37 per cent of your income. your savings (30 i»er cent mid the remaining 3 per cent scattered among recreation, education and philanthropy. You are a spendthrift if your living expenses ore 58 per cent, your savings zero, your recreation 40 per cent. You are thrifty if your liv■ing expenses are 50 per cent, your pavings 20 per cent, education, giving and recretion 10 per cent. It’s a pleasure to meet a budget maker who emphasizes some necessities of human living besides savings only, and who will not give the palm to the fellow who saves the most.—Kansas 1 City Times. / ■■ ' — First “Weather-Glass” ' The first mecurial barometer was constructed chiefly for the purpose of demonstrating the fact that air has weight, says Nature Magazine. Later this instrument acquired a great repu • tation as a means of predicting weather and was nicknamed the “weatherglass." Though its prophetic powers are not now rated so high as formerly, it remains the most important of ! meteorological instruments. The col--1 tinin of mercury in the barometer ' rises and falls with changes of atraosIpheric pressure, and its length is . measured by means of an attachment called a "vernier,” with a much greater refinement of accuracy tluin is that ,of the column of mercury or alcohol 1 In a thermometer. Naval Range Finder An accurate method of computing ' the distance between ships when the ' heiglit of the enemy ship is not known 'is by the use of the optical range ; finder, □’his instrument is installed in ' the turrets of battleships, it consists ,of a long tube with optical prisms. . The lengtli of the tulte is taken as the base of a triangle. The distance is then figured out mathematically. The degree of accuracy depends upon the visibility conditions and the distance can usually be ascertained within a few hundred yards of the exact distance. Progress in Lighting A common laborer Os today works about ten minutes each day to pay for the lighting of I> ,S home by means of electricity. A tidlf-ccntury ago lie would have had to work two and onehalf -hours to provide the same amount of light by means of gas flames. And If be had supplied himself a half-century ago With the same amount of light from candles lie would have had to work 24 hours every day to pay his lighting bill. For this great reduction in the cost of artificial lighting, modern science is responsible.— Scientific American. Make Sure You’re Right First be sure —that you are right, then go ahead. But be sure that you are right. More than one man has pjade the mistake of hugging s de- j lusion under the impression that lie was embracing an .opportunity.—Urik ,

Is Perfectly Well Now. Those who are crippled by rheumatism, or tortured by stomach or kidney trouble, will find good news in the prompt recovery of health made by Mrs. G. O. Lutzenhuser, 621 E. 7th St., Auburn, Ind. She writes: “Three years ago my kidneys began troubling me, I began to have j back-ache and was'often disturbed at night. My stomach went back on me, food wouldn’t digest, gas formed and pained me intensely, and I was i made miserable by constipation, headI aches and dizzy spells. But the worst | of all was neuritis which crippled my right arm so bad I could hardly ' work. At night, my feet and lower I limbs would swell up and ache, and i the neuritis pains were almost worse than tooth-ache. I had just about given up hope of ever being well again, but I made one more effort ' and started taking Viuna. Soon 1 > noticed I had less neuritis and now, ' after taking four bottles, the neuritis and the limb swelling have entirely disappeared. My kidneys are fine and never disturb me now, and the back-ache is gone. I can eat good meals and have no gas, stomach pains, headache or constipation. 1 am getting good sleep and feel just fine in every way. I gladly recommend Viuna, and can’t begin to tell how wonderful it is.” Viuna acts promptly op slungish bowels, lazy liver ami weak kidneys. It purities . the blood, clears the skin, restores appe i titeand digestion,and brings new strength i and energy to the whole body. Take a liottie on trial.
