TOMB TELEPHONE.

Mr. Sheets, a Terre Hautean, announces that In his new mausoleum he will have a telephone. Whether or not he carries out his plans there mere suggestion reminds us of the improvement which might be made in this matter.

History furnishes abundant evidence that science has seemingly performed miracles for the benefit of the living yet it has scarcely lifted a hand until the last few years in behalf of the dead. The methods of burial in every land have undergone practically no change in twenty centuries a brutal custom _has decreed that the remains of departed friends must rest until the final awakening in a bleak and often neglected cemetery, with the cold, wet ground for a bed. It is true that wealth can secure beautiful caskets and ornamental monuments of artistic designs, but in the final analysis, the last resting place of pomp and poverty is essentially the same—a mud-draped grave.

There is no doubt, however, but that the American people are awakening to the necessity of a radical change in the custom of burial, and that the modern 'mausoleum, perfected and built to stand the ravages of ages, has everything to commend it. The idea is not a new one, however away back in the "beginning of history similar methods of burial prevailed, and it must be admitted that in the selection of places for depositing their dead, the ancients

were deeply Impressed with a necessity of selecting tombs calculated to receive and preserve from decay and corruption the remains of departed friends.

AN AGREEABLE SOUL.

If you don't see what you want, ask for it, has become to be literally interpreted in a good many ways, none more enterprising than the individual who advertised in the want columns the other day as "a refined, sensible young man, single, desiring to meet another young man around same age, with similar qualifications, who owns automobile object, to take a short Vacation trip through surrounding country."

There was quite a little more of the ad, but for practical purposes the reader may pass over the statement, "Best of references given and qquired," and may even view unflinchingly the stern warning, "Professional chauffeurs and grafters, save stamps." It is quite evident that the meat of the ad, the crux of the situation which it presents, is in the words "who owns automobile." The sensible young man is willing to help some other person enJoy that other person's automobile.

Besides his good, plain, common sense, this advertiser seems to have degree of assurance which ought to make him a valuable traveling com panion. He would be Just the person to explain matters to speed officers, or to borrow gasoline of other automobllists. Some automobile owner will have overlooked a rare opportunity if this rather unusual ad Is life una swered.

THE MOTORISTS' FRIEND.

Those drivers of automobiles who subscribe to the belief that pedestrians and occupants of horse-hauled vehicles have positively no rights of the road will be pleased to learn of a new fangle on the 1915 type of car—a torpedo tube equipment calculated to clear the road, ahead.

This device, which is operated by the driver, Is an improved beanshooter of the airgun type. It is a wonderful help on country roads. Our Mr. Bing, on a recent tour, used the tube successfully on three sleeping farmers who were occupying most of the right of way, attracted the attention of two deaf men who subsequently turned out, and pestered five roadhogs with It until they gave in. The tube shoots dry beans with deadly precision at any range up to 50 feet. It is absolutely concealed. An occasional man will suspect that he felt something hit him, but he will usually conclude that the shot was more psychological than real. In addition to expediting a country tour, the tube gives a humorous flavor to an automobile ride not enjoyed In any other car. A special butterbean tube for hickory shirt districts is available, and one going far into the hills can attache a tube large enough to project green walnuts or wild crabapples. Increasing the range to 100 yards.

Then for the pedestrian or driver who still insists on retaining any part of the road there Is devised a sixteeninch shell which will obliterate any obstruction even more effectively than does a hard and tough tempered fender.

MARCH OF SCIENCE.

A government report recently Issued calls attention to some of the scientific developments which have come along with the automobile industry and among the innovations referred to is the practical application of carbide lights. The reports is interesting as a matter of information. The immense production at Niagara falls of carbide of calcium, the curious artificial stone which, when bathed In water, g#ves off acetylene gas, recalls that this substance was first manufactured in America by accident, through the metallurgical operations of Mr. T. IJ. Wilson, near a small stream in North Carolina. While using limeston-j and salt in smeting, h* noticed amonc the melted slag which day by day ran nearer to the brink of the little stream, a grayish-white substance, new in his ex perience, but thought little of it until one day the molten slag overhung the water and began to flow into it. Then suddenly a bright, white flame burst out of the molten mass and enveloped it for some time. He drew from the dry slag some of the strange material and touched a match to it, but without result. Then he poured some water upon it, and at the next trial the liberated acetylene gas broke Into flame. Thus in 1892 accident discovered a practical way of producing that acetylene gas, first discovered in England in 1836 by Edmund Day while experiment with potassum tartrate and charcoal. It remained, however, for the inttnse heat of the hydro-electrical furnaces of Niagara to turn out this wonderful stone in almost perfect purity and immense quantities.

TELEPHONE SERVICE.

Telephone statistics are like astronomical calculations in their immensity. More than twenty million miles of wire are used in the construction of the telephone lines in the United States, a gain of nearly fifteen million miles during the last decade. Nine leUn-'.niion telephones are jingling every viour of the day in this country

KLEEMAN'S

TERRE 'HAUTE^lNDj,

twelve years ago there were only three million. During 1912 nearly fourteen billion messages or talks were sent over the wires of telephone companies having an income of more than five thousand dollars. This includes all kinds of conversations, long or short, counting as one call the fifteen-minute gossip of the neighbors in the early eivening, to say nothing of the lingering love chats. These figures do not include the messages carried over the million and a half telephones operated by smaller branch companies, which were not required to make a report.

These facts are interpreted as an argument against federal ownership of telephones by a writer In one of the current magazines who says: "In the light of these facts talk of government ownership of telephones does not appeal to millions of telephone subscribers who know what real telephone service means. Evidence accumulates that the solution of industrial problems depends more upon internal evolution than upon external legislation, Just as the medical profession has learned that a mere application of soothing liniment, or 'cupping and bleeding,' does not cure or prevent dlsea3e."

It would appear from the rumors that the next man to fill a vacancy on the supreme bench will be either very fat or moderately thin.

One fact should be borne in mind— that Mr. Jones, so much on the senate's conscience, is not of Binghamton.

HOROSCOPE FOR A DAY.

Tuesday, July 28, 1914.

Good and ill mingle in the planetary rule for today, aocordlng to astrology. In the morning Uranus and Venus are in benefic aspect, but' later Mercury is adverse. Jupiter is in a place strongly favorable in the evening.

It is a day in which to ward off petty worries and small anxieties. The sway may tend to cause Irritability and a tense state of the nerves. Haety speech, oversensitiveness and discontent may cause domestic difficulties.

Under this configuration It is wise not to sign any contracts. Letters may prove mediums of trouble.

The sign is not a fortunate one for important journeys. Delays and accidents are more common than usual, while Mercury is unfriendly.

Jupiter gives encouragement to all who engage in new business enterprises today. It is an auspicious time for opening shops or taking new positions.

Science and art will be greatly advanced in the autumn by one or two projects, it is predicted.

The autumn probably will be a critical time for Japan. The war spirit will be strong, the seers declare.

Panama is subject to a leading that portends discussion, revelations concerning governmental matters and continued agitation relating to revenues.

Persons whose blrthdate It Is are counseled to guard the health during the coming year. Parents may have anxieties concerning their children. The augury is, on the whole, encouraging, and promises* fair fortune.

Children born on this day may be too fond of pleasure. They are likely to be exceedingly loyal and truthful. A girl may make rather an unfortunate marriage.

THOUGHTS THAT COME.

"Everybody does it," and "nobody does it" may be no reasons at all for doing or not doing things.

The more anxious a man is to argue, the more advisable It is not to argue with him.

More discomfort comes of fashion than from any other"source He's a wise man who devotes his best years to best efforts.

The man who most loudly proclaims that the people shall rule means that they shall rule as he directs.

How Tramps Knew.

"Get away from here or I'll call my husband," threatened the hard-faced woman who had just refused the tramp some food. "Oh, no, you won't," replied the tramp, "because he ain't home." "How do you know?" asked the woman. "Because," answered the man, as he sidled toward the gate, "a man who marries a woman like you Is only home at meal times."—Dallas News.

SAMARITAN AND BRIGHT'S DISEASE

James Craig is a prosperous merchant of Silverton, Oregon. He has time to think of the health and happiness of those about him.

A young lady school teacher, the daughter of a friend, was succumbing to Bright's Disease. Craig wrote to the late N. W. Spalding, then United States Sub-treasurer of San Francisco, to ask if there was any truth in the report that Bright's Disease was being cured in California. Spalding replied that after he had spent $10,000 with physicians, his own daughter had recovered, and that, too, after the dropsy had developed and the case was supposed to be hopeless.

Craig advised the father and Fulton's Renal Compound was taken to the patient. She recovered and was teaching school at last advices. Craig was delighted and told others. He has sent us the names of nearly a. dozen helped to new leases of life.

The ability of Fulton's Renal Compound to oppose Renal degeneration and reduce albumen in many cases of Bright's Disease is not a matter of opinion but a FACT IN PHYSICS, and ive will mail formula for albumen test that will show the percentage from week to week. As the albumen declines improvement commonly follows, recoveries having been reported in thcueanrts of cases. Formula and literature mailed on request. John J. Fulton Co., San Francisco.
