JUST DISAPPEAR, THAT’S ALL

Englleh Newspaper Potato Out How ’ Baay It to to Booema "Talk ><. A../" es the Town." 1 Aniy inhabitant of any English village can make himself the “talk of the town” If ho will only go away, from it suddenly without leaving any address. There is no person of any consequence too dull, too harmless, or too respectable to become the hero of any imaginary crime or good deed if only he , will disappear. In a moment he is a center of romance. If he came back Incognito at the. end ’of the proverbial “nine days,” which means of course s much longer , time than a week and a would not recognise the highly colored portrait which would be shown him of. himself. What did he ever do, he might wonder, to be thought so bad or .so good, so strange of so silly? There is no reputation stand op unaccountable departure. Such a vague heading *• “Disappearance -of a Lady” obviously nt?, tracts many renders or we should not see It so often In the public press. Of course, if it can bd made a definite, and the disappeared person’s birthplace, daily work, or social condition can be particularized, the romantic Instinct of the multitude ’!• even more certiin to be awakened. TbV notion 'that someone has not been buried, though every evidence is there to prove that he or she has died, Is a recurrent source of squalid ro* mance.—London Times. , t

TO REVIVE SHOCK SUFFERERS

' - i Application of Artificial Respiration Must Be Kept Up Despite Baem- - , Ing Discouragement 5 ’ Dr. S/jellinek, analyzlng,the effects of severe electric shocks received by contact With the electrified wire fences during the World war. wrote in Elektrotecbnlk und Maschlnenban that an Important factor was the state of preparedness of the victim. , - A Experience, says the Scientific Amershown that a shock which was likely to prove fatal if received unexpectedly, was harmless when anticipated. Experiments on apimals have confirmed this Jmpreesloo and have been Instrumental In showing t>at physiological effects.of shocks administered with direfct and Indirect current are distinctly different. »’ It Is also remarked that a close resemblance to death after shock should not be accepted too readily as proof. Persons apparently dead have not lpfrequendy recovered when artificial respiration was applied. It is best to give too victim the benefit of top doubt

Blow-Resisting Paper Caps.

Astonishingly strong paper caps, capable of withstanding powerful blows, jtiougb extremely light in weight have •been Invented by a employee, and are Intended to be worn by workmen whose duties expose them to danger from falling objects. The, process by which toe novel headgear Is produced: has. not been divulged, says ’ Popular Mechanics, but it is known that chemicals are employed to harden the material,, without adding to its weight. Several styles have been made, the lightest weighing about seven ounces, and others only slightly more. In a recent' test, a one-pound bolt was dropped on one of them ftoim a height of 40 feet, with the result that’s barely proceptible dent was loads in the paper. The novel head, coverings are proof against water and adds, and are poor conductors of electricity. , •

KURDS A PRE-ARYAH RACE?

Fierce Warriors Have Boon Distinguished for Their Turbulsnce Since Days of Xenophon. / Perhaps toe most interesting thing about the Kurds*is that at least one ethnologist has said of them that they might easily be taken for Germans yt . color of. hair, skin and eyes. They are one of the faces which" have 'provided plenty of speculation, and they have been classed as pf the Caucasian .type,, though one authority has described them as representing probably the aborUdnal race, pre Ayran, ■which extended once over the whole of Armenia, Luristan and Kurdistan. It seems pretty certain that they are descendants of those Carducht whom Xenophon mentions as harassing the retreat.of tfie. Ten Thousand, and still use the caves he mentions for their winter quarters. Whatever their race, there Is no dpubt about their turbulence. They have the* z alr of fierce warriors,- And they live up to their appearance, having given end-less-trouble to the Persians at one time: or another. But they have a reputation for honor as well as courage, and, just as the Romanoffs chose their personal guards from among the fierce Cossacks, so the Persian shahs have been accustomed, to confide themselves more wlHingly- to Kurdish officers. At one time or another the Kurds have been the scourge e£ Armenia, and ‘have committed some terrible excesses there in their forays. * ■' ■ ■ 4->

NOT ALWAYS A DANGER SIGN

V-V ■ ‘ Mistaken Idea that Spitting Blood Invariably Denote^the Presence of Tuberculosis. - r’. There Is no need to become alarmed if'one spits' blood. It is not, as so many think, a sure sigil of consumption, for the overwhelming, majority pf tuberculosis patients never have this symptom; And the blood may come from the larynx, pharynx, teeth, stomach or even .the small intestine. Dr. H. Rabinowltsch of New. York points out In the Medical Journal that when we consider the great size of the arteries that enter the lung and their minute ramification on the surface of the delicate air cells we should not wonder If blood Is sometimes coughed Up from the lungs; Severe coughing or straining may vastly break a small branch, of one of-these arteries. Dr. Rabinowitscb says the hemorrhage Itself is of flight moment. If It comes from an aneurism, death is almost instantaneous; if it comes from a congested area and is limited. It is In some ways beneficial by relieving the congested area. , It has. another good effect—making a recalcitrant patient obey the doctor’s orders. • The treatment is directed to the cause and not to the hemorrhage.

Elf Arrows.

Elf arrow Is a name given to a triangular piece of flint, formerly used as an arrowhead by early inhabitants of Great Britain and Europe generally. It was once' believed that these barbs of flint were shot by elves or invisible beings at cattle' or men to bewlfcb tbem- hence the name. Cattle dying suddenly In the fields were said to have been stSrtick by an elf arrow; and this superstition still lingers in Ireland at the present dag. Blf arrows set In silver, were frequently worn as talismans, and were considered most efficacious as preventives against poison and witchcraft They are also called elf bolts, elf darts, elf shot and elf stones.

Mocking Bird Is a Fighter.

I The mocking bird Is only bird I have ever seeh driye away a cat; he will peck and dart a about so fast and bewftfleringly* that 1 the cat becomes confused, and seems not to realize that her assailant is a -but hurries off In a panic to escape such a dangerous foe. He/ even distrusts ths clumsy old turkey buzzard, who has lighted dowti/th th? to foYestlgate the garbage can to %ee ts by any chance the cover has been left off, and the buzzard, like the cat, never tries to defend itself, but sidesteps and dodges and finally flees from Its small enemy—never seeming to think that one sweep of its big wing would grind it to dust.— Exchange.

Land Worse Than Worthless.

The desert of Gobi In central Aria, where bone-dryness has been the fashion for thobsands of years, is also a difficult place to obtain a drink. I Its largest streams either vanish in tbe sand or emptv into salty lakes. Caravan routes from»Ohlna to Russia are still Important trade channels, for the Russians insist that a sea voyage destroy* the flavor of tea. This great arid waste Is 1300 miles wide and 400 miles demand the almost rainless veera id nee antiquity have parched Its aands to the dryness that drifts J gyrating sand waves god snuffs out , ,■ 1,1 -4»— 1 -

FIRST PARLIAMENT IN 1265

Frohi That Tima Dates Dm Entry of the Commons Into Power In the State. Tbs 20th of Jannaxy, 1268, was a great, day not only for the Englishspeaking people but the world; it was the time appointed for the meeting of the first parliament in England. Mathew of Parts in his chronicles first uses the word Id reference to a council of the barons In 1246, but it was fa the year 1265. during ,a civil war which very much resembled that Of the seventeenth century, being for law against an arbitrary power as expressed by royalty, that tbe first parliaments. properly so-called, were assembled. ft was at thig time tirat Simon de Montfbrt held King Henry in his power. r This parliament was spmmoned in such a manner that there should be two knighta for each county, and two citizens for every borough; the first clear acknowledgment of the commons । element tn the state. The meeting was , held in that magnificent hall at Westminster and the representatives of the commons sat tn the same place with their noble associates, probably at the bottom of the hall, little disposed to assert a controlling 'voice nor joining tn any vote. But there they were and, notwithstanding the fact that De Montfort was shortly’-’ overpowered and he ana nearly all of bls associates slaughtered, the commons were never again left but. ft was an admitted power entitled to be consulted in all great national movements and to have , a .'directing voice In the . matter of taxation. . *

Undernourishment Practically all varieties at malnutrl(ioD occurring during ’ Infancy and early childhood tend to terminate In rickets, a disease characterized by softenipg ctf'the bones and consequent deformity. The essential feature of rickets, says Dr. E. Pritchard. In the British* Medical Journal, is the want of calcification or mineralization of developing bone, and this,, in Its turn. Is due to the existence of requirements for calcium, which for the time being are mere urgent than those of develop- । Ing bone. These urgent Requirementsare the necessity for neutralizing add . bodies in, the blood; In other words, to neutralize of compensate an existing addosta Doctor Pritchard,argues that all chronic conditions at malnutrition, of whatever kfnd or from whatsoever cause arising, finally terminate ini an of which means that . children who do not get proper nourishment k fair way to become deformed, *

What Hath Ho Done?

"What hath he.done?” is the divine question whidh searches men and transpierces every A fop may sit In any chair In the world nor be distinguished for his hour from Homer and Washington; but there can never be any doubt concerning, the respective ability of .human beings When we seek the truth. Pretensionmay sit still, but cannot act Pretension never wrote an Iliad, nor drove back Xerxes, nor. christened the world, nor abolished slavery. , . ./ Never a sincere word was utterly lost Never a magnanimity fell to the ground. Always the hearts of men greet and accept it unexpectedly. A man passes for what he is worth.—Emerson.

Highland Superstitions.

Did you know that if you lived In Scotland all salt cellars in the bouse must be full on New Year’s day, else the household will suffer want during the year? . ; - ' That is not the only superstition peculiar to Scotland. The country is full of them. For instance, the Highland nurses believe that' if an infant’s feet are put in snow he will never have colds during Bls iif& A regular practice among the farmers used to be the placing of honeysuckle branches in their cow houses .on May 2 to keep their cattle from being witched. j .A bad storm to prophesied when a cat frolics about a room. If the cat washes Its face with its paws before the fire, the coming day will be rainy.
