Sad-Eyed Saint Bernard | Most Romantic Large Dog Oud 0% & aßte Meige Genine trayed of large canine family is the sad-eyed Saint Bernard. This dog gained its reputation down through the years as a rescuer of man in the dangerous mountain passes of the Swiss Alps. 'uotm' the 8.1:;' Bernard did ‘ Oflfinflfo amid lofty peaks, where later it was destined to become a hero on countless occasions. In short, this dog did not first come to light in" Switzerland, asserts a writer in the Philadélphia Inquirer. Folks have become quite familiar with the Saint Bernard because it has frequently been pictured in a setting of snow and ice, with brandy cask suspending from a huge collar. The eyes of the dog express sorrow, probably because of the ‘‘haw” or third eyelid. These dogs are one of the giants of dogdom. When full grown, the average Saint Bernard weighs from 170 to 210 pounds. The Saint Bernard is a graceful mover, chiefly because of its broad feet, which encase closed up toes that are well padded. In fact, these dogs have a “‘fifth toe” on their hind feet. This is not a freak of nature which frequently crops up in other breeds. The “fifth toe” is a developed dewclaw that really is actually another toe. The surefootedness has been developed chiefly among the Swiss types, that have been used for rescue work.
Bird’s Driving Force Is Due to Downward Stroke
The driving force which propels a bird through the air is entirely Aue to the downward stroke of its wings, according to Naturalist S. F. Aaron, writing in Scientific American. Aaron further states that the feathers of a bird’'s wing remain tightly closed on the down stroke, but spread slightly on the up-stroke, thus permitting the wing to be raised without much resistance. As Aaron describes the curious mechanism of wing structure that makes this possible, each of the large ‘“‘flight feathers’” turns or pivots-on its individual quill, much as the shutters on a blind may be turned. The quills of these feathers are not in the middle, but nearer the forward side. On the up-stroke these pivot automatically in their socket, allowing the wing to recover its stroke upward through the air without tending so much to retard the bird’s progress. But the feathers cannot pivot thus on the down-stroke because the broad rear edge of one feather is held against the front edge of the next.
“Seven Seas,” Figurative Term The term ““The Seven Seas” is not intended to be taken literally, but is a figurative term denoting all the seas and oceans of the world. When Rudyard Kipling gave the name to a book of his poems he mentioned that it' might be used in this sense or to include the seven great oceans, the North Atlantic, South Atlantic, North Pacific, South Pacific, Indian, Arctic and Antarctic. Areas are: Pacific, 68,634,000 square miles; Atlantic, 41,321,000; Indian, 29,340,000; Arctic, 4,781,000; Antarctic, 5,731,350. Average depths are: Pacific, 12,960 feet; Atlantic, 12,200; Indian, 11,136; Antarctic, 10,800; Arctic, 5,160. Exact dimensions cannot be given. The Dead sea in Palestine is 47 miles long, 10 miles wide, 1,080 feet ®eep and has an area of 360 square miles; its surface is 1,300 feet below sea level.
Hands Reveal Character
| Anyone who sits with hands | loosely clasped in the lap is of a quiet, well-balanced mind, while the | nervous person tries to control nerv- | ousness by tightly gripping the hands together, states a writer in Pearson’s London Weekly. One who has a habit of clasping hands with fingers entwined is not keeping | strictly to the truth, while one who | partially covers the mouth with a , | hand while talking has certain knowl- - | edge, but is trying desperately not | to reveal it. A person who remains . | seated while conversing with an- | other who is standing finds it very | difficult to tell an untruth and any | attempt to do so s easily detected g by the person standing. , Saint Bernard of Mastiff Family Unlike many other breeds, the origin of the Saint Bernard is a bit hazy, but early historians have agreed this type of dog belongs to the Mastiff family. The ancient records produce evidence that Mastiff dogs were brought from Asia, and used by the Romans as herders of sheep, besides being kept as watch dogs at army outposts. It has also been established that Roman soldiers used large dogs to guide sheep ‘| over the mountain passes, one of which was called the Saint Bernard Pass, no more than a pack mule | path. A hostile tribe destroyed this path and cut off travel over the mountains around 950 A.

Must Pay Tax on Sales Out of : ~ The Indiana Supreme court in a far-reaching decision ruled that corincome tax on revenue which is derived from the sale of goods in interstate and foreign commerce. ; In another important decision the high court upheld the 1937 change of judge law. . The manufactures’ tax test case, Mu every Indiana company which sells goods outside the gtate, was returned in a suit by the J. D. Adame Manufacturing company cf Indianapolis. The company manwfacturing road construction equipment, some of which is sold direct to consumers and some to dealers for 1 re-sale both in Indiana and in other states. The Adams company oontendot\ that the gross income tax was a tax in many cases on linterstate cowr merce and therefore was uncoustitutional. The supreme court held that the gross income tax law is a ax on all the revenue Indiana citizeus and corporationg receive regardless of the source, and {s not a levy on interstate commerce per Se, COnl. sequently the act is not In violaon of the constitution, the court ruled. The company also raised two other questions: 1. What rate the tax on sales to ultimate consumers should be for a manufacturer? 2. Is interest from tax-exempl bonds subject to the gross income tax? In the prevailing opinion written by Judge Michael Fansler the court held that sales to unltimate consumers by a manufacturer are retail sales and therefore are taxable at the full one per cent retail rate instead of the one-fourth of one per cent charged for sales other than retail. In the ruling on tax-exempt bonds the court decided that although the honds themseleves are exempt from taxation, the interest on them deflnitely is income and consequently is subject to the income tax.
Will Have Toboggan Slide
Residents ' in the vicinity of Waco on Lake Wawasee were intrigued early this week with the arrival of an ominous looking pice of equipment. There were beams and curves and boat-like affairs which seemed to bear no relation to the other parts. Several large trucks were required to transport the equipment to Waco. The curious were informed by karl J. Reddin, general manager of the Waco Corporation that this mass of materials, when put together will be one of the famous “Louden” Toboggan Slides, which he is ipstalling a* Waco Beach for the summer season. The slide will be 35 feet high. The boatlike gadgets are the toboggans which are taken to the top <f the slide and furnish a real thrill as rhey carry the bathers down the slide and out into the shallow water cf the lake, Mr. Reddin states that this tohoggan slide is the largest and most mondern gf is type in the stat: and &11° furnish bathers at Waco Beach

Nature’s Writing Found on Lake Erie Limestone
One of the most notable examples of nature’'s handwriting is to be found at Kelley Island, in Lake Erie, not far from the Ohio city of Sandusky. Here every crag tells to the initiated in nature’s handwriting what took place in the Ice age, says a writer in the New York Times. A number of years ago, while blasting the limestone of which the island is composed, workmen noticed that the surface of the rock uncovered was oddly carved. Over the limestone there is a twenty-foot layer of unstratified rock, sand and gravel. Geologists examined the grooves and carvings on the limestone taken from beneath this covering and reported them to be remarkable imprints left by glaciers. The grooves are from four to six feet deep. The limestone contains shells of marine creatures, and the shells have been polished until they resemble inlay work. The ancient Egyptians wrote on the leaf of the papyrus plant; the American Indians on birch bark; but nature in leaving her written message to man compressed millions of animal organisms into a tablet of limestone, and inscribed it with a stylus of granite and fingers of ice perhaps miles in thickness. Strewn over the northern part of Ohio are granite boulders of all sizes. Their place of origin was in Canada, north of the Great Lakes. It is concluded that they were transported by moving ice, and the grooves on Kelley island limestone shows some of the work they did on their passage south.
