Sun vs. Moon.

Professor Young finds by investigation that the sun’s light is about 300,000 times as great as the moon’s. If, therefore, the sky was covered with full moons, they would give but oueeighth as much light as the sun. A gentleman giving a lecture to some boys was explaining how no one could live without air. He then said: “You have all heard of a man drowning; how does it happen?” The answer was “ ’Cause he can’t swim.” I use Piso’s Cure for Consumption both in my family and practice.—Dr. G. W. Pattebson, Inkster, Mich., Nov. 5,1894. It is wonderful how many medicine bottles and tin cans poor families can collect.—Los Angles Express.
