Mostly He's Gas, Water And Iron "What is man?" The question was asked 3,000 years ago, and is still being asked. Science would answer it this way: i "Man contains about 3,500 cubic feet of gas, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen in his constitution, which, at $1 per thousand cubic feet, would bp worth $3.50 for illuminating purposes. He also contains necessary fats to make a fifteen-pound candle, and thus, with 3.500 cubic feet of gas. possesses great illuminating possibilities. His system combines enough carbon to make 10,000 lead pencils. There are about fifty grains of lrcn in his blood, and the rest of his body would supply enough to make a spike big enough to hang himself. If healthy he con tains fifty-four ounces of phosphorus. This poison would make a million matches, or kill half a thousand persons. A couple of pounds of lime make stiff bones and he contains about 100 lumps of sugar and thirty spoons of salt, to make the seasoning complete. If distilled into water he would make about forty quarts. He also contains a lot of starch, chloride of potash, magnesium, sulphur and hydrochloric acid. If we tried to make him up out of eggs it would take about 1,000." Also, if he has made good In Wall street, he has a spine made of whalebone. YACHT RACERS START PUT IN BAY. O.. July 16.

Willard Game Fighter, Says Dempsey s Trainer NEW YORK, July 16. Jimmie De Forest, who.tralned Jack Dempsey for the Willard fight, has come out in defense of the ex-champion. "I would like to say a few words for Willard," said De Forest. "It Is really distasteful to me to hear anybody say that Jess quit. The remarkable part of the whole affair was that Willard lasted three rounds. He took a frightful beating, having many of his teeth removed at different times, in addition to being floored often. J ss is as game a man as ever entered the ring, and I bar nobody when I make that statement."

WOMEN IN BUSINESS Woman's power in America Is well illustrated by the thousands of women who entered almost every line of business'to replace men who were drafted during the war. Health proved their strongest asset. Many women, however, developed weak, nervous conditions and could not stand the strain of a business life. Such women should remember there is one tried and true remedy in Lydia E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound, which for forty-five years has been restoring health and strength to the women of America. Adv.
