Happy is the man who can re turn for a few days to the natural habits of our ancestors through a camping, hunting or fishing trip. | The race did not always dwell in houses, nor dine on elaborately pre- pared food. | Some in the cities try to substi- | tute a few minutes’ health drill in their rooms before retiring, but this | pill-like megsure is not to be com- pared with a day in the open.

William Cullen Bryant, upon rising in the morning, swung @ chair around his head, took wand exercises with a cane, and then walked five miles to his work. Probably most of us do not at- tempt even this much or on the tramp. Walking and run- ning are good exercises, and less use of the street car probably would pre- vent much nervousness and weakness among women.

Henry Meier of Center col- lege, summed these up at a recent meeting of the Kentucky Academy of Science. He said that in the first | place the probably low temperature, rarefied atmosphere and absence of water on Mars are against the exist- | ence there of beings similar to our- selves. In the next place, signaling by light must be given up, for the rea- son that the earth’s atmosphere would absorb 40 per cent of the light sent out, and the distance is so great that an area of light ten miles square on earth would, if seen | from Mars through a telescope mag- | nifying five hundred times, appear | like an area one inch square viewed at a distance of five hundred feet. In considering signals by radio, it | has been computed that it would re- | quire a current of a million amperes | at the sending station to obtain one ; ampere at a receiving station on Mars. And Mr. Meier remarked that | the powerful electric current sent | out by the sun would probably over- | whelm the weak waves sent from the earth.

The invention of the gasoline | engine marked a great forward step over the steam engine. In these | engines gasoline is mixed with air | and ignited by an electric spark, and | the resulting explosion forces down the piston. The new plan is to spray oi] upon heated air under pressure, | when the resulting explosion pro- | vides the force which drives the pis- | ton. The lower grades of crude oil jean be used for the purpose. The | invention is believed to be one of the | most important in a generation. It \is, besides, an American invention jand will enable our ships driven in vantage compared with the engines |of other nations. The invention is especially timely today when Amer- |ica’s merchant marine is competing jfor the supremacy of the seas— Boys’ Life. | SUIT HAD A STRING TO IT, A novel device to prevent thefts from the outside of a shop was de- scribed at Manchester (Eng.) re- jcently when John Taylor was sent |to prison for three months for steal- ing a suit of clothes from outside |a pawnbroker’s shop. The clothes were attached by a | piece of string to a bell in the shop. |When Taylor took them from the {hook the bell rang and alarmed the shopman, who rushed out and |caught Taylor before he could get jaway.
