ecrets that Suddenly Made
The Simple Recipe Used by a Man Who Rose from a $26
Clerkship to a $10,000 Job as Salesman Almost Overnight
By JAMES F, SPENCER
N a recent issue of American Mag-
azine I told how I got my start
in selling. I related how a friend
mine i^opped in on me one day, all
'ssed up like a "bloomin' bloated
llionaire," and told me an amazing
ny of ups and downs, and how he
lally turned to the selling game and
lade good.
I related how Joe's first selling job
sted three weeks — his second, six
;eeks — his third, less than two months
—and then how he learned the secrets
pi selling that suddenly boosted his
earnings to $10,000 a year.
I told how I had been struggling
dong for years, making a bare living,
never getting ahead very far, and how
it seemed that I was up against a
stone wall so far as any increase in
my earnings was concerned.
Then I explained how Joe's story
inspired me to try ray hand at selling,
how I got Joe's secret of learning to
sell, and how I finally jumped to earn-
'ngs of $192.30 per week as against
^ $26 a week formerly.
Right here I want to mention a few
f the reasons back of Joe's success
nd of mine.
First let me say that any man who
is dissatisfied with his lot — who is
tired of being held down to a salary
which can grow only very slowly —
who wants more "elbow room" for
4
developing his natural powers, can do
no wiser thing than getting a line on
the possibilities in selling. No work
that I know of is better paid or more
enjoyable.
Salesmanship is the kind of work
that is productive. The man v/ho
gets the orders is the man who gets
the money. Other lines of work are
what are termned "non-productive"
and if an employer hates to pay for
anything it is for non-productive
work. Every time a little increase in
salary is given, it simply adds that
much to the expense. In selling it is
different. The salesman gets orders
and every time he gets an order it
means a profit to his firm.
In salesmanship a man's value is
determined absolutely by himself. It
does not depend on another man's
whim. If the salesman is successful,
he has got to be paid big money, or
some other concern will grab him, and
an employer is always anxious to
keep a star salesman, because star
salesmen are scarce.
One of the things that I learned
about salesmanship was that as soon
as a man knows how to sell he can go
out and sell anything. He has a pro-
fession — a trade. The secrets of sell-
ing are fundamental. The 'man who
can sell hardware or groceries, or any,
of the staple lines, can go oiit and sell
stocks and bonds, insurancp, real es-
tate, or any of the special lines, be-
cause the same principles that apply
in selling groceries also apply in sell-
ing insurance or anything else.
The same motives that induce a
man to buy one thing will induce an-
other mean to buy another thing. We
have got to make certain appeals
either to the customer's love of profit
— to the customer's vanity — to the
customer's desire for comfort, and to
many other motives. As soon as you
have learned the human motives and
the kind of sales talk, that impels
action you have learned the funda-
mental secrets of selling.
The trouble with most salesmen is
that they go about it blindly. They
think a knowledge of mer-
chandise is about all they
need. Yet a number of
men who have been with
concerns all their lives are
failures at selling, simply
because they do not know
the basic, underlying rea-
sons that produce the
sales reaction in the cus-
tomer's mind.
For example, there are
certain ways to get an
audience — certain ways to
open a sales talk in order
to get a man's undivided interest —
certain ways to make a man eager to
know just what your story is without
seeming to force yourself upon him —
certain ways to act to get a man to
act at once instead of putting you off
— certain ways of knowing when t6
stop talking, and certain definite prin-
ciples of overcoming every possible
objection that may arise in the pro-
cess of making a sale.
Many salesmen after years of ex-
perience learn some of these principles
by instinct. Some salesmen go along
for years and never learn these prin-
ciples. The most successful sales
in the country, however, observe t)
principles whether they realize it kjl
not. How much better it is to begin
right at the start with a full knowl-
edge of these rules and principles!
That is what I did and that is why I
was successful right from the start.
Joe did not do it from the beginning
and was a failure. As soon as he ac-
quired a knowledge of these selling
secrets he became a success.
Joe and I went to head-
quarters when we wanted
to learn how to sell. We
took the Course in Sales-
manship issued by the
National Salesmen's
Training Association, and
Ave have them to thank
for our success. We
might have flounderf
around for years withf
getting anywhere If i
had not been for the sales
instruction they gave us.
The course is based on
the experience of many of the big-
gest and most highly paid salesmen
in the country and is boiled down,
classified, and arranged, so that it is
easy to understand and easj' to get
tlie most out of. The course is given
entirely by mail, so that you can study
it in your spare time in your own
home. The free employment division
of the Association is at your disposal
in lielping you to find a position,
either as a city or travelling salesman,
to your liking — they have constantly
on file more applications for positions
than they can possibly fill.
I suggest that you write to the National Sales-
men's Training Association, Dept, 50A, Chicago,
lU., for the same information that Joe and I got
(Then we wrote. There never was a time in the
histoiy of the country that salesmen could jnalce
as much money as now. People have more money
than ever before. They are buying more things
than ever before, and a salesman's job is easier
to-day than ever before if he knowi how to sell.
It is not necessary to write a letter. Just mail
the coupon below or a post card to-day. This one
move may change the whole course of your life. I
om uiaHing this statement in further appreciation
of what the Association did for me. Do not
this important matter off, but write to-day.

Decision:
An essential to success
THE great difference be-
tween the successes and the
tragedies of life is exjaressed
usually in one single word —
Decision.
Two men read the facts re-
garding life insurance; both
have the good intention to act.
One man does act; and the
other waits until it is too late.
Two men covet progress.
One man will read this adver-
tisement and act, and a year
froiix Sow will Kave made
greater" progress toward busi-
ness success.
The other will Hesitate; and
next year will find him just
where he is to-day.
You have decision. Decide
now that you will spend a sin-
gle evening in investigating a
training that has done so much
for other men, whose problem
was precisely like your own.
Investigation is easy
To make investigation easy
the Institute has published
a 116-page book "Forging
Ahead in Business.'* This is
a book of facts and letters — -

Tone varies greatly in different makes o£ plionograpfis"*
And it is for improved tonal quality that aii producers strive.
It does not take a trained musical ear to appreciate the
superiority of The Brunswick. You'll notice the difference
at once.
The Brunswick Method of Reproduction
Old conceptions of tone gave way to new when The
Brunswick Method of Reproduction appeared. It possessed
radical advances, revolutionizing features. One of these is
the Ultona, a simple device for playing all records. By a turn
of the hand the correct needle
and diaphragm are presented
to each type of record.
A fresher, truer tone is
secured in The Brunswick
by the Tone Amplifier — an
ail-wood throat. Because it
is built like a fine violin with-
out any metal in its construc-
tion, it eliminates the usual
strident metallic harshness.
Go to any Brunswick Dealer
and he will demonstrate this
remarkable method of re-
producing musical sounds.
A single hearing of this great
instrument will move you to
enthusiastic praise.

is fifty-eight years old. One day he read one of
my advertisements and the possibilities of making money in
the Auto Tire Repair Business. In a few v/eeks he had pur-
chased and installed a Haywood outfit, and was doing business
for himself. A short time ago he wrote us
that his income in four months- was as
much as it had been in Two and One-
Half years as Telegraph Operator.
There are thirty million tires in use

What the World Owes io the
The well drill Is responoible for the exploration and prelimiimry
development of the earth's natural reaaurces.
Drilled water well* have solved the water supply problem for
domestic, farm and municipal supply and for irrigation in arid lands.
Pure, fresh water can be found almost anywhere by drilling, though
often deep seated In the rocks.
In the shallow oil and gas fields— depths less than 2,000 feet—
the portable drilling machine, particularly the Gasoline Traction
type, has largely supplanted the old stationary standard ricj and
derrick.
In lime, cement and crushed stone quarries the rock Is blasted
from its natural beds by loading explosive In large diameter holes
which are drilled with well drills equipped with cable tools.
In mining tho well drill Is used for prospecting materials such
as coal, iron, placer gold, copper, lead and zinc. The large open
pit, low grade copper mines of Southwestern United States and the
Iron mines l:i the Mesaba Range of Northern Minnesota mine their
ore by the steam shovel method and use well drills for blast hole
drilling in the are-bearlng deposits and in stripping the over-burden.
On immense rock moving and engineering Jobs such as ttie
Panama Canal and the Miami Oonservaflcy District in Ohio, blast
hole drills pave the way for blasting the material to be excavated.
On such work drills are also used for sounding, testing and grouting
for foundations and piers.
These are only a few of the more Important uses of the well
drilling machine.
Well drilling as a business pays a higher return than any other
in propcrtion to the capital invested. Most well drillers consider
$40.00 a day small profit. Some make as much as $100.00 to
$125.00 per day clear. Aside from Its money making possibilities,
well drilling offers an Independent, healthful outdoor life.
Cyclone Drills are built In Traction and Non-Traction types with
either oacolino or steam power In different sizes for drilling to
depths ranging from 200 to 2,000 feet.
'^Drilling \For Profits" describes Cyclone
Drills and the various fields of deeqj well
drilling in wMoh they are being successfullu
operated. If you we a d/riller, this booklet
will prove valuable — if you are not, it will
give you an insight into an interesting and
profitable business. Write for your copy.

The average mind resembles
a tcrap pile.
Is yoiir mind Uk« a scrap pile — heaped up witJi a lot of unrelated, unclassified, unindexed facts?
When jou want to r.emem.ber a name, place or date, must you groye imcertaiuly in this mixed-up pile
seeking an Tain 'to locate the desired information? And finally, in embarrassment, give it up? Sum-
moned on any occasion to ghe facts and figures — does your mind become a blank? W.hen. suddenly
called upon to speak — do you seek wildly to collect your thoughts — utter a few commonplace remarks —
and sit down — ^liumiliatcd ? Without Memory, all the, knowledere in the world beconaes
worthless. "Stop rorK-ettuiff'' xuakes youi- minrt a file — not a oile.

WHAT WE TEACH
Early in our history the Big Auto Manufacturers told
us their problems — told us the land cf men they needed
— the kind tliat was hardest to get. They not only
wanted keen, ambitious, hustling young fellows who
could see the future of tlie business
and appreciate the opportunities offer-
ed, . but they wanted men who were
thoroughly trained along practical
lines. And because we have insisted
on following those principles in our
teaching, wo have enjoyed the heart-
iest co-operation of the factories.
Every pliase of Auto, Truck and
Tractor work Is covered in our Course.
Nothing is omitted. The Course is com-
plete, comprehensive, practical and
sensible. Students are taught by
actual experience in the work.

Improved by the Lusk Standardized Tjniveisal,
Called "Standardized Universal" becausfo the
Standaid ritman alphabeit is used, and the
expedients and shortcuts are used by 09%
of tlie reporters of tlie world.
Greatest Improvement made in 40 years in
phrasinc and arrangement of text-books.
Twice as rapid as the Swiftest Pitmanic;
four times as rapid as the Siwiftest Non-

A LnSlc writer can record almost any sen-

writer of tlie Swiftest Pitmanic is recording
it once. Or FOUR TIMES while the Swiftest
Xon-Pitmau writer is recording: it ONCE,
Lusk Stenographers can pass uny Civil Ser-

You are sized up every day by the way you speak and write. The words yo i
use, the way you use them, how you spell them, your punctuation, your gram-
mar — all of these tell your story more plainly than anything- else you do And
it is a story open to all. An unusual command of lan,?uag-e enables you to
present your ideas, in speech or. on paper, clearly, forcefully, convincingly.
A simple method has been invent- vice, and now he places it at your

Sherwin Cody, p e r -
haps the best known
teacher of practical
English, after twenty
years of research and
study, has perfected an
invention which places
the ability to- talk
and write with cor-
rectness and force with-
in reach of every one
with ordinary intelli-
gence. Slierwin Cody
was amazed to discover
that the average person-
JTi school or in business
is only 61% efficient in
the vital points! of
English grammar. That
is because the methods
of teaching English in
school left you only a
hazy idea of the sub-
ject — they did not
'Stick in your mind.
But Sherwin Cody's
new Invention upsets
all old standards of
teaching English. His
students secured more
improvement In five weeks than had
previously been obtained by other
pupils in two years. Only 15 min-
utes a day of spare time with this
"100% 'Self-Correcting Method" will,
within a very short time, give youan
easy command of language.
"100% Self-Correcting
Method"
On April 3. 1S18, IMr. Cody was
granted a patent on his unique de-
Course Beyond Improvement.
"I have examined a num-
ber of English Courses and
believe that, for a solid
foundation-training in good
English, there can be no
improvement over the Sher-
wiu Cody 100% Self-Cor-
recting Course. It is a
perfect drilling in the base-
rock principles, which are
shamefully neglected in the
public schools, and without
which no one can attain a
mastery of our language.
"The treatment of letter
writiiig is the most thor-
oughly practical I have ever
seen. A young man or a
young woman could do noth-
ing better to insure his or
her success than to take up
your coiu-SB, and thus quickly
and easily attain skill in
the handling of correspond-
ence, accura<!y in spelling
and punctuation, coi-rectness
in speech and writing, and —
through the stimulating les-
sons on Conversation and
Reeding — a<- broader intellec-
tual outlook. 3 new view of
life and literature, and a
mastery of English words."

HOW I LEARNED IT
By GEORGE
**|" TAVE you heard the news
Jl A. p.bout Frank Jordan?"
This question quickly brought
me to the little group which had
gathered in the center of the
office. Jordan and I had started
with the Great Eastern Ma-
chinery Company, within a
moilth of each other, four years
ago. A year ago Jordan was
taken into the accounting divi-
siox! (ti d I was sent out as sales-
mane .NTeither of us was blessed
'vilh a^' nusual amount of bril-
liancy, but we "got by" in our
new jobs well enough to hold
them.
Imagine my amazement, then,
wiien I heard:
"Jordan's just been made Treas-
urer of the Company!"
I could hardly believe my ears. But
there was the " Notice to Employees "
on the bulletin board, telling about
Jordan's good fortune.
Now I knew that Jordan was a
capable fellow, quiet and unassum-
ing, but I never would have picked
him for any such sudden rise. I
knew, too, that the Treasurer of the
Great Eastern had to be a big man,
and I wondered how in the world
Jordan landed the place.
The first chance I got I walked
into Jordan's new office and after con-
gratulating hnn warmly, I asked him
to let me "in" on the details of how
62
IN ONE EVENING
RAYMOND
he jumped ahead so quickly. His
story is so intenselj'' interesting that
I am going to repeat it as closely as
I remember.
" I'll tell you just how it happened,
George, because you may pick up a
pointer or two that will help you.
" You remember how scared I used
to be whenever I had to talk to the
chief? You remember how you used
to tell me that every time I opened
my mouth I put my foot into it,
meaning, of course, that every time
I spoke I got into trouble? You re-
member when Ralph Sinton left to
take charge of the Western office and
I was asked to present him with the
loving cup the boys gave him, how
flustered I was and how I couldn't
say a word because there were people
around? You remember how con-
fused I used to be every time I met
new people? I couldn't say what I
wanted to say when I wanted to say
it; and I determined that if there was
any possible chance to learn how to
talk I was going to do it.
" A few weeks later I read an
announcement stating that Dr. Fred-
erick Houk Law had just completed
a new course in business talking and
public speaking entitled ' Mastery of
Speech.' The course was offered on
approval without money in advance,
so since I had nothing whatever to
lose by examining the lessons I sent
for them and in a few days they
arrived. I glanced through the entire
eight lessons, reading the headings
and a few paragraphs here and there,
and in about an hour the whole secret
of effective speaking was opened to
me.
" For example, I learned why I had
always lacked confidence, why talk-
!ng had always seemed something to
be dreaded, whereas it is really the
simplest thing in the world to 'get
up and talk.' I learned how to secure
complete attention to what I was say-
ing and how to make everything 1
said interesting, forceful and con-
vincing. I learned the :.rt of listen-
ing, the value of silence, and the
power of brevity. Instead of being
funny at the wrong time, I learned
how and when to use humor with
telling effect.
"Whj'j I got the secret the very
first evening and it was only n. short
time before 1 was able to apply all
of the principles and found that my
words were beginning to have an al-
m-ost magical effect upon everybody
to whom I spoke. It seemed that I
got things done instantly, where
formerly, as you know, what I said
•went in one ear and out the other.'
I began to acquire an executive
ability that surprised me. I smoothed
out difficulties like a true diplomat.
In my talks with the chief I spoke
clearly, simply, convincingly. Then,
came my first promotion since I
entered the accounting department.
I was given the job of answering
complaints, and I made good. From
that I was given the job of making
collections. When Mr. Buckley joined
the Officers' Training Camp I was
made Treasurer. Between you and
me, George, my salary is now $7,-500
a year and I expect it will be more
from the first of the year.
"And I want to tell you sincerely
that I attribute my success solely to
the fact that 1 learned how to talk
to people."
When Jordan finished I asked him
for the address of the publishers of
Dr. Law's course and he gave it to
me. I sent fol-it and found it to be
exactly as he had stated. After
studying the eight simple lessons I
began to sell to people who had pre-
viously refused to listen to me at' all.
After four montlis of record break-
ing sales during the dullest season
of the year I received a wire from
the chief asking me to return to the
home office. We had quite a long
63
talk in which I e>-plained how I wi
able to break sales records — and
was appointed Sales JIanager
almost twice my former salarv,
know that there was notliing in i
that had changed except that I hj
acquired the ability to talk whe
formerly I found I used words withoi
reason. I can never thank Joitla

Be an Expert in Banking
Banking as now conducted is really a new profession. Finan-
cial institutions are more active and progressive than ever before.
They need men trained in modern methods. Splendid opportuni-
ties open for cashiers, managers, tellers, trust officers, etc. Make
yourself a Banking Expert through the LaSalle Course in Banking
and Finance. Only spare time required. Moderate cost. Easy Terms.
Big Demand for Trained Men
In addressing the employees of his institution recently the president of
the largest trust company in New York City said:
"It is becaming increasingly evident that the development of trained men, capable of filling Im-
portant official and clerical positions in the Company is not keeping pace with our growth.
Therefore it has been necessary frequently, as you know, for us to go outside of our organization
for such men."
Such conditions as these are duplicated in practically every large bank.
The LaSalle Course in Banking and Finance
offers fundamental training in Practical Banking, and the deeper problems of
modern finance for the ambitious man who wants to learn while at home,
doing his "bit" the best he can. . ^a^A^LLE exVens'ioVuni v'e'rsity.

Train In Law
That man — the master of the conference — is the attorney for the corpo-
ration. He is the adviser to whom officers and directors turn when knotty
legal questions come up. He shapes policies, influences or makes decisions,
is always in touch with the innermost affairs of the house. Every large
business house must have its lawyer — either on its staif or as a retained
adviser. He is often a director, an officer — even president, because he can
make quick, correct decisions based on legal knowledge.

This IS the age of specialization — But the man who supplements his special training and education
with a foreign^Ianguage doubles his commercial value and opens up new possibilities and new fields
of opportunit5'. Think of what the market of South America alone offers to the
man who c^n speak Spanish! Greater business, higher salary and position awaits
the man who Is capable.
You can learn a foreign language at home in comfort — in the privacy of your
own room. The voice of the best native teachers will speak to you, correctly
and distinctly, slowly or rapidly, as you prefer. It will talk to you during
your .spare moments or for, hours at a time — whenever you are in the
mood to listen — until you have mastered the cqrrect accent and pro-
nunciation.
You can acauire this great gift ou your own phonograph with Ihe disc
records of the
Language Phone Method
and Rosenthal's Practical Linguistry.
With til's method foreign language study becomes a pleasant mental
diversion. All the old-time drudgery of memori2!ing unnecessary rules,
verbs, declensions, etc., is eliminated. You learn in the natural way
—the way you learned your own tongue — hearing the living voice pro-
nounce each word and phrase. Anjone can learn a foreign language
who hears it spoken often enough, and by this method you can hear it
as often as you desire. It is highly endorsed and recommended by
leading Educators and Authorities. Send for Free Book. Dr. Richard

«*THE NATIONAL SYSTEM"
The standardizing iiifiuence of Gregg Shorthand on short-
hand teaching in the United States is clearly revealed in the
map above — the dark areas showing the percentage of cities and
towns in each State whose high schools teach Gregg Shorthand
exclusively.
79.85% of the cities teach Gregg Shorthand exclusively
in their high schools.
20.15% teach other systems — sojue thirty-five different
texts or systems.
20% is the gain of Gregg Shorthand over all other
systems connbined in one year.
Gregg Shortliand has been adopted exclusively in the Staves of
')vegon, ULali, Oklahoma and Tennessee.
There is but one logical conclusion to be reached from
these figures — I hat Gregg Shorthand is enabling schools to
achieve superior results.

and how the secret of a good memory
may be learned in a single evening
By DAVID M» ROTH
|°^IFTY members of the Rotary
"^"* Club were seated in the
banquet hall of the Hotel Mc-
Alpin in New York. I was intro-
duced to each member in turn, and
each gave me his telephone number
and told me his occupation. An hour
later, after they had changed seats
while my back was turned to them,
i. called each man by name, gave his
telephone number and named liis oc-
cupation Avithout a single error.
The following evening in the office
of a large business institution I asked
the president of the concern to write
down fifty words, numbers and names
and to number each item. An hoUr
later I called out each item and gave
the number opposite which it had
been written.
At another time I glanced at the
license numbers of a hundred and five
automobiles which passed. These
numbers were written down by wit-
nesses in the order in which the cars
passed. Later I called each number
correctly; and gave the order in which
the numbers went by.
From Seattle to New York I have
appeared before salesmen's meetings,
conventions and Rotary Clubs giving
demonstrations of mj' memory. T
have met over 10,000 people in my
travels. Yet I am quite sure I can
call nearly every one of these men
and women by name the instant I
meet them, ask most of them how
the lumber business is or the shoe
business or whatever business they
were in when I was first introduced
to them.
People wonder at these memory
feats. Hundreds have asked me how
S2
I can store so many facts, figures
and faces in my mind and recall them
at will. And they are even more
mystified when I explain that my
memory used to be so poor I would
forget a man's name twenty seconds
after I met him! In fact that was
what led me to investigate and study
the cause of poor memory and the
remedy. For years I read books on
psychology, mental culture, memory
and other subjects. All of these
books were good, but none of ihem
was definite or easy enough. So I
labored until I found out lohat it
was that enabled me to remember
some things while I forgot others.
Finally I worked out a system that
made my memory practically in-
fallible.
I explained my system to a num-
ber of friends and they could hardly
believe it possible. But some of them
tried my method and invariably tJiey
told me that they had doubled their
memory power in a week. They got
the method the first evening and then
developed it as far as they cared
to go.
The principles \yhich I had formu-
lated in improving my own memory
were so simple and so easy to apply
that I decided to give my method to
the world.
At first I taught my memory sys-
tem in person. My classes in Rotary
Clubs, banks, department stores, rail-
way ofTices, manufacturing jjlmts
and every kind of business institu-
tion grew amazingly in size and num-
ber. Memory teaching became my
sole profession, and a wonder.f.;i ex-

Them With a Veil; Remove
With Othme— Double
Strength
This preparation for the removal of freckles is usually so
successful in removing freckles, and giving a clear, beautiful
complexion, that it is sold by any druggist under guarantee to
refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a veil; get an ounce of
Othine and remove them. Even the first few applications
should show a wonderful improvement, some of the lighter
freckles vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the double strength Othine;
it is this that is sold on the money-back guarantee.

There is a very effec-
tive way to remove freckn.
les and make the skin
clear and beautiful. It
is in this wa}'^ that Kintho
Cream gradually gets rid
of the old, freckled skin
and gives a soft, clear,
white, youthful and beau-
tiful skin, which of course
should have no freckles.
Just get a box of
Kintho Beauty Cream at
any drug store and apply
it night and morning as
directed, and your freck-
les should begin to dis-
appear in a day or two.
It is well to get a cake of
Kintho Soap also, as this
helps to keep the freck-
les away, once Kintho
has removed them.

Absorbine, Jr., knowing its value
in reducingr s'welliiig-s, aohes, pains

were smooth as when he was a,
boy and all the pain and soreness
nad ceased. Thousands have since
U'sedtJhisantiseptic liniment for this
purpose with remarkaibly good re-

oils and extracts from pure herbs,
and when ru'bbed upon the skiii is
quickly taken up (aJbsorbed) by
the pores; the blood- circulation in
surrounding parts is there'by
stimulated and healing helped.

TROUBLE IS, your system is
clogged with a lot of impurities that your
over-worked digestive and eliminative organs
can't get rid of. Pills, oil, salts, calomel and ordi-

bowels and prod the liver.

prompt relief and real, lasting benefit. Make the test.

self has come to the rescue and is doing the work.

How Strength and Vigor Is Lost and How Man'oood
May Bs Restored by Self- Treatment Without Drugs
By Dr. W. J. HUNTER.
This is a most timely and important work bj' one who has uiacle a care-
ful stu<1y of the subject and brings to bear a thorough knowledge of general
and sexual hygiene. For the Avant of the knowledge on sexual subjects this
book contains, many men are on a downward course, and by the use of it
many could be saved from sexual weakness, restored to manly vigor and made
capable of filling life's duties and becoming strong, manly men instead of
physical and social wrecks. We ca.nnot better describe this volume, whicli has
received the highest praise from competent critics, than to publish the fol-
lowing, condensed from the
TABLE OF CONTENTS.
marital excess do their most deadly work— Quacks
and charlatans — No medicine required to cure sem-
inal emissions.
A WRECK ESCAPED— Continence of young men
— Tremendous power of the sexual appetite — Impure
thoughts the chief cause of self-abuse aJid fornica-
tion — Wedlock — How to live a contuiexit IrTe.
THE RESCUE BEGUN— Does nature forgive?—
Natural law is God's method of operation — Nature
repairs and restores — Difficult to convince the vic-
tim of seminal wealmess that no medicine is needed.
THE RESCUE COMPLETED— The medical pro-
fession — Beware of m.edical companies and sharks —
The prhicipal asjgiavnting cause of seminal weak-
ness— A flood of light on the subject— Special treat-
ment ^vithoiit expense — An absolutely iufaUible
remedy.
'Bhe author of this work is not treating patients, has no medicine or appliances
to sell, amd tells all 'he knows on the subject in this volume. This book is hand-
somely published in larg;e, clear type, bound in extra cloth, and, wishing 'to co-

For fifteen years I have been treating one
disease alone, ECZEMA. I have handled over
one million cases. I do not pretend to know it
all, but I am convinced the disease is due to
an excess of acid in the blood, and closely re-
lated to rheumatism and cancer. This acid
must be removed.
Eczema is called by some people Itch, Tetter, Salt
Rbeum, Pruritus, Milk Crust, Weeping Skin, etc. I
am fiilly convinced Eczenna is a cura.b)e disease, and
wlien I say it cau be CURED, ,1 mean jiist what I say —

The Secret of Making People Like You
THE greatest asset any man can
possibly have is the faculty for
making people like him. It is
even iiiere important than ability.
Did you know that a blond has
an entirely different temperament
than a brunet? — that to get along
•with a blond type you must act en-
tirely different than you would to
get along with a brunet.^
V/hen you really know the differ-
ence between blonds and brunets,
the difference in their characters,
temperaments, abilities and peculiar
traits, yon will save yourself many
a mistake — and you will incidentally
learn much you never knew before
ii.bout yourself.
« * » »
TaijJ Graham was a blond, and not
until he learned that there was all the
differeaec irr the, world between the
characfeii'istics of a blond and those
of a brunet did he discover the secret
of making people like him.
Paul had been keeping books for
years for a large corporation which
1?0
had brandies all over the country.
It was generally thought by his as-
sociates that he would never rise
above that job. He had a tremend-
ous ability with figures — could wind
them around his little finger — but
lie did not have the ability to mix
with big men; did not know how to
make people like him.
Then one day the impossible hap-
pened. Paul Graham became popu-
lar.
Business men of importance wlio
liafl formerly given him only a pass-
ing nod of acquaintance suddenly
showed a desire for his friendship.
People — even strangers — actually
went out of their way to do things
for him. Even he was astounded at
his new power over men and women.
Not only could he get them to do
what he wanted them to do, but they
actually anticipated his wishes and
seemed eager to i)lea3e him.
You, too, can have the power of
making people like you. For by the
same method used by Paul Graiiam,
you can, at a glance, tell the char-
acteristics of any man, woman or
child — tell instantly their likes and
dislikes, and YOU CAN MAKE PEO-
PLE LIKE YOU. Here is how it is
done:
Everyone j^ou know can be placed
in one of two general types — blon'd or
brunet. There is as big a diiference
between the mental and emotional
characteristics of a blond and those
of a bninet as there is between niglit
and day. You persuade a blond in
one way — a brunet in another. Blonds
enjoy one phase of life— ^brunets
another. Blonds make good in one
kind of a job — brunets in one entire-
ly different.
To know these differences scienlif-
icaly is the first step in judging men
and women; in getting on well with
them; in mastering their minds; in
making them like you; in winning
their respect, admiration, love and
friendship.
And when you have learned these
differences — when j^ou can tell at a
glance just what to do and say to
make any man or woman like you,
your success in life is assured.
* « * *
You realize, of course, that just
knowing the difference between a
blond and a brunet could not
accomplish all these wonderful things.
There are other things to be taken
into account. But here is the whole
secret.
You know that everyone does not
think alike. What one likes another
dislilics. And what offends one pleases
^notlier. Well, there is your cue. You
can make an instant ".hit" with any-
one if you say the things they want you
to say, and act the way they want
you to act. Do this and they v.'ill sure-
ly like you and believe in you and will
go miles out of their wav to PLEASE
YOU.
You can do this easily by knov/ing
certain simple signs. In addition to
the difference in complexion, every
man, woman and child has written on
them signs as distinct as though they
.were in letters a foot high, which
121
show you from one quick glance ex-
actly what to say and to do to please

Strong, Sturdy
and Healthy Bean
in of Today
"To make strong, keen, red-
blooded Americans there Is nothing
in my experience which I have found
so valuable as organic iron — Nuxated
Iron" says Dr. James Francis Sulli-
van, formerly Physician of Bellevue
Hospital (Outdoor Dept.)» Nev/York,
and the Westchester County Hospi-
tal. Nuxated Iron by enriching the
blood and creating new blood cells
strengthens the nerves, rebuilds the
weakened tissues and helps to instill,
renewed « nergy and endurance into the whole system. It often increases
the strength of v/eak, delicate people in two weeks' time. It is estimated
that over 3,000,000 people use Nuxated Iron annually as a tonic and blood-
builder.
ut Where Your Blood Stands
See how long you can work or how far you can walk
without becoming tired; next take two five-grain tablets
of Nuxated Iron three times per day after meals for
two v/eeks. Then test your strength again and see
how much you have gained. Numbers of nervous,
run-down people who were ailing all the while have
most astonishingly increased their strength and en-
durance simply by taking iron in the proper form.
Manufacturers' Note: Nuxated Iron recommended and
prescribed by physicians is not a secret remedy but one
which is well known to druggists everywhere. Unlike the
older inorganic iron products it is easily assimilated, does
not injure the teeth, make them black nor upset the
stomach. The manufacturers guarantee successful and
entirely satisfactory results to every purchaser or they will
refund your money !t is dispensed by all good druggists.

for Constipation
They have been prescribing them for years. Ask any prescription clerk.
Johns' Cascara Compound Tablets are the ideal agent for overcom-
ing habitual constipation. IDEAL because they contain no irritating cathar-
tics vv^hich apply the whip to the intestines, weaken the system and end by
aggravating the very condition they were intended to relieve.
The gentle, thoi-ough, laxative effect of Johns' Cascara Compound Tab-
lets is due entirely to Johns' concentrated and refined extract of Casciira
Sagrada, the "sacred bark" of the Aztecs, who knew its value in correcting
constipation — the source of so much sickness and discomfort.
They relieve flatulence, nausea, vertigo, water brash, constipation and
loss of appetite. They remove greasiness and sallowness ol the complexion.
They are a most efficient remedy for bilious attacks and sick headaches.
A Johns' Cascara Compound Tablet taken at night insures in the morning
a naturai and complete evacuation of the bowel contents. The continued use
of John^' Cascara Compound Tablets can be nothing but beneficial. Price 25c.

come easy and the mucus stop dropping into the throat. It
is easy to prepare^ costs little and is pleasant to take. Anj^

"To every vian who faces life zvith real
desire to do Ms part in everything, I
appeal for a study of the Bible. 'No
book of any ki7ul ever ivritten has so
affected the whole life of a people."
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
MEN whose lives were shaped by the
Bible laid the foundations of American
freedom. This marvelous Book has
moulded earth's loftiest characters. It
meets the deepest need and every need of
every man. It charts the only path to
real and lasting success. It reveals man's
only way of salvation, %nd it is the world's
best business book. Dig in it "as for gold
and you will secure treasure o? value and
extent beyond any calculation.
Truly, as President Wilson says: "A man has de-
prived himself of the best there is in the world loho has
deprived himself Of intimate knoivledge of the Bible."
Nothing U riioro needed in America ioday than Bihie study, and
for the great majority the most satisfactory method is by Corre-
spondence. The
MOODY BIBLE INSTITUTE'S
Correspondence Department
had C548 persons -under instruction the past year in one or more
of its ciuht different Correspondence Courses. JTore tlian 40 occu-
pations and nearly as many ages and nationalities were represented.
Letters of v/armsit appreciation are constantly received from stu-
dents. For example:^
"I am enclosing tlie last lessoii of my course. As ) niiish it I
f!ni! no| vvordo to express my thanlcE for tlis help it has given me.
Neither is it poasibie for me to tfill liow greatly It has enlaigeil
my knowledge of the Word. The Bible means Infinitely more
to nie because of this series of lessons."
A Clergyman says: "I often mention in ray sermons that a Corre-
spondence Course from The Moody Bible Institute has been of far
greater value to me than all my Bible and theological work in college."

e Income Yield
ALL conservative investors in the stock market
are interested in the income yield they may ex-
pect from purchases of dividend-paying securities.
"HOW TO FIGURE THE PERCENTAGE OF RE-
TURN ON A DIVIDEND-PAYING SECURITY"
is the title of an interesting booklet, outlining a sim-
ple method of establishing in advance of purchase
the percentage of income yield on the amount of
money involved. This booklet also contains a six
per cent, interest table — a table showing actual rate
of income on dividend-paying securities and bonds at
various prices — rules for computing interest — and a
table of equivalents of trading fractions.
Collateral Security
THERE is no factor in market transactions of
greater importance to the investor than a thor-
ough working knowledge of the subject of collateral
security. This subject is carefully explained so that
even the least experienced may understand, in tlie
booklet entitled, "HOW TO FIGURE THE COLLAT-
ERAL VALUE OF SECURITIES."

Valuable Home Study Course for
Beginners and Experienced Men.
i have a definite aim, and that
is to belp any ambitioiis man vylio
desires to advance In the electrical
field, wliether he is a beginner or a
practical man. During my seven-
teen years of practical and consult-
ing experience in the different
branches of electrical work I have
designed electrical courses for edu-
cational institutions. I have con-
tinually noted what men wanted
and needed in order to succeed.
And thus I have designed and
written my instructions to meet
these practical conditions, with
which I am familiar by actual first
hand knowledge.
Results of My
Service.
Practical electricians
recommend my course
to others. My stu-
dents are promoted
and get better sala-
ries. Beginners get
employment in elec-
trical work after tak-
ing my course a short
while.
Bumess Electrical Scliool
That is why I received such let-
ters as the following; "I took some
of my lessons down to the plant
and studied them, The superin-
tendent saw them and asked me
what they were, so I told him. The
next day he informed me tliat I
would draw $150.00 instead of
$110.00, This came in very handy
for me, of course. Hoping to hear
from my exams real soon, I re-
main, your pupil, G. D. Waters,

GEORGIA HAMILTON,
Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which ai-e continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose of malting
thin people ilesihy, developing arms, neck
and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by tho
soft curved
lines of
health and
beauty, there
are evidently
thousands of
men and
women who
keenly feel
their exces-
sive t h i n-
ness.
T h 1 n n ess
and weak-
ness are
often due
t o starved
nerves. Our
bodies need
moia phos-
phate than
is contained
i u modern
i'oods- Pihy-
slcians claim
there is notlhlinsr that ■will stl"PT)ly this de-
ficiency so well as the organic phosphate
known among druj^gists aa bitro-phos-
D'hate. whiah is inexpensive and is sold by
most all druggists under a guarantee of
satisfaction or money back. By feeding
the nerves directly and by supplying the
body cells with the necessary phosphoric
food elements, bitro-iphosphate should
produce a welcome transformation in the
appearance, tlie increase irt weight fre-
quently being astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with it
a general improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of
energy, which nearly alway.'a accompany
excessive thinness, should soon disappear,
dull eyes ought to brighten, and palo
cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect
health, /Miss Georgia Ha^mllton, who was
once thin and frail, reporting iher own
experience, writes: "Bitro-Phosphate has
brought about a magic transformation
with me. I gained 15 pounds and never
before felt so well."
CAUTION: — ».\lthouEli .Wtro-i^hosphate
Is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
sleeplessness and general weakness, it
should not, owing to its tendency to in-
crease weight, be used by anyone who
does not desire to put on flesh.

ated Magnesia Neiitra°
lizes Stomach Aci^Iso
If you suffer from dyspepsia
01- indigestion, drop pepsin, bi.^-
muth, charcoal, soda and artificial
digestive aids for a while. Instead,
try neutralizing the acids in your
storaach with a little Bisurated
Magi'esia and see how fine youi
stomach feels and act?. Relieved
of excess acid your stoaiach can
probably digest anything- a heaitlry,
norma] stomacli should digest.
You'll need no help from drugy.
For Dyspepsiaj Indigestion
Heartburn, Belching, Sour, Acid
Stomach, Gas in Stomach, etc.,
take a teaspoonfui of Bisurated
Magnesia in a half glass of hot
water after eating. Is safe, pleas-
ant and harmless to use and gives
almost instant relief. It neutra-
lizes stomach acidity and sweetens
the food contents so that di-
gestion is easy and painless. Sold

HAIR GROWN ON MR. BRITTAIN'S BALD HEAD BY
INDIANS' MYSTERIOUS HAIR GROWER
My head at the top and back was ahsolutoly Isald. The Bcalp
-V7as shiny. An expert said that as he thought the hair roots were
extinct, and there was no hope of my ever having a new hair growth.
Yet now, at an age over 66, I have a luxuriant gro-wth of^soft,
strong, lustrous hair! No trace of baldiiess. ""' ' "
here are from my photographs.
Indians* Secret of
The pictures shown
lair Growth Free
From recent photo.
At a time when I had become discouraged at
trying various hair lotions, tonics, specialists'
treatments, etc., I came across, in my travels, a
Cherokee Indian "medicine man" who had an
elixir that he asseverated would grow my hair.
Although I had but little faith, I gave it a trial.
To my amazement a light fuzz soon appeared. It developed, day by
clay, into a healthy growth, and ere long my hair was as prolific as m
my youthful days. .
That I zvas astonished and happy is expressing my state of mind mildly.
Obviously, the hair roots had "not been dead, but were dormant in
the scalp, awaiting the fertilizing potency of the mysterious pomade.
I negotiated for and "^eame into possession of the principle for
preparing this mysterious elixir, now called Kotalko, and later had
the recipe put into practical form by a chemist.
That my own hair growth was permanent has been amply proved.
Many men and women, also children, have reported satisfactory results from Kotalko.
Thoto when bald.
My honest belief is that hair roots rarely die even When
the hair falls out through dandruff, fever, excessive dryness
or other disorders. I have been told by
t experts that often when hair falls out

the roots become imbedded within the
scalp, covered by hard skin, so that they
remain for a time like bulbs or seeds in
a bottle which will grow when fertilized.
Shampoos (which contain alkalis) and
hair lotions which contain alcohol are
enemies to the hair, as they_ dry it,
making it brittle. Kotalko contains those
elements of nature which give new
vitality to the scalp and hair. To prove , , . _^-,_
the GENUINENESS of Kotalko, I will send the recipe FBEE
on request. Or I will mail a testing box of Kotalko with the
recipe for 10 cents, silver or stamps. Satisfy yourself..

How Polly Made My
Salary Do
WHEN" the war started and all prices began ballooning I thought that
I was due for a raise. But the boss had contrary jdeas. The war
wouldn't help our business any. Then, when the armistice was
signed, I figured a boost in salary was a certainty — and I got it. But getting
by while the world's championship finish fight was being staged was the
trick. We did it. That is, Polly, my wife, did it.
Polly and I talked over the turndown I go.t when I hit the boss the
first time.
"Never mind Don," she said. "We'll manage somehow." The way
she said it and the smile on her face stopped me from worrying right tlien
and there. When Polly says she'll, do a thing it's as good as done.
Well, I brought the littfe old pay check home every Saturday night.
Polly would take it, kiss me, smile and say nothing. I was watching her to
see how she was going to do the trick. I figured that she'd start by cutting
me down to one egg twice a week instead of a pair three times. But I was
wrong there. I began to look for stews — you know the kind, cheap but
nourishing and filling — to make their appearance oftener. But we contin-
ued to h-ave steaks and roasts and chops just as regularly as before.
"How much is steak now?" I asked one night while biting a particularly
tender and tasty one.
"Forty-eight cents a pound," answered Polly, never batting an eye but
smiling as usual.
I couldn't figure, how she did it. So I thought the cut in our living
expenses would surely come in our clothes. But Polly blossomed out in
new raiment as jegularly as before and I didn't have to wear my Spring
overcoat through the Winter or tell the tailor to put patches on my trousers
and be sure to .see that the goods matched.
So I gave it up. But never a yelp out of Polly. She didn't make me
miserable by wishing that I'd make more money so we could have this or
that or something else that was beyond us. In fact, we seemed to have
more than ever before.
The other night when I came home and told Polly about the raise, of
course she was glad like any other wife would be. I had figured the raise
would ease the strain on her. When I told Polly that, you should have been
there to see her laugh.
"Strain? Why Don, boy, where'd you get the idea that living on wliat
you were making was a strain?"
That \ was a stunner. Finally I managed to counter v/ith, "Well, how
in the name of Pershing, Foch, Haig and the allied armies, including Ru-
mania, did you manage to do it?"
"You just said it, Don," she came back at me. "I managed."
She left the room a minute and came back holding something behind
her.
"What have you got there — Beatrice Fairfax's 'Hints to Blu;>hing
Brides?'" I asked, trying to be funny.
"No," she shot back. "It's the all-wool, yard wide, genuine First Aid
to Anaemic Salaries, otherwise and more generally known as WooJson's
Economy Expense Book."
"When you told me that there was no extra monev coming in to meet
*;he higher cost of things I knew that something had to be done. I didn't
170
know what. Well, I've always axlmircd Kate Douglas for the way she
managed to get along on Charley's small salary. So I decided to ask her
advice. She had just one thing to say: 'Get a Woolson Economy Expense
Book.' I did. With the aid of this little book, Don, I not only managed
to live within vour salary and give us everything we had been accustomed
to, but I really and truly saved money. And that's something we never
had been able to do."
Then Polly sliowed me how, by budgeting her expenses and mme ac-
cording to the book and by keeping accurate track of all expenses, she
had cut out all unnecessary expenditures and reduced the necessary, ones.
It was all a case of managing.
Today every man and woman should spend his income intelligently.
There can he no argument about this fact. This nation, to win the war,
had to conserve. You cannot practice economy by simply being willing to
do so. Woolson's Economy Expense Book will absolutely, and in the best
and simplest way, keep an account of your income and expenses. By it
you can compare every type of expense by weeks, months, and years. You
can lay out a budget which will guide you surely and certainly to a proper
use of your income.
In the front of the book are many ideas on the saving of money. Budgets
founded on practical experience are supplied. You can draw up a budget
for yourself, after a study of those which other people have used.
AVoolson's Economy Expense Book is not an untried idea. The first
Woolson's Economy Expense Book was sold over fifteen years ago — it was
the first household account book, and none of the many adaptations to it

more simple system.

income tax returns, deducting the proper items, such as interest, taxes,
charity, etc. You will have a detailed account of all items of income so
that these can be properly placed in your returns.

Parents should present one to every child, married or single, having an in-'
come of his own.

IF women would only take Parto-

weak, run down and irritable
there are thousands who might readily
strengthen their nervous system, and
through this added nerVe energy over-
come physical weakness, lack of en-
durance and nervous exhaustion. "By
nourishing, soothing and strengthening
the delicate nervous system," says Dr.
C. M. Jordan, New York Physician
and formerlj'- United States Examining
Surgeon for Pensions, "Parto-Glory
invigorates the whole body, increases
physical powers and gives renewed energy and vitality
to run-down, ner-vous men and women whether they be
young or old.
"I recommend Parto-Glory most highly for all cases of 'nerves,'
irritability, dyspepsia due to nervousness, headaches and other
troubles caused by weakened, deranged or impaired nervous con-
ditions. I have used Parto-Glory myself with great satisfaction
and have often prescribed it for nervous, run-down patients who
have obtained marked benefits in one vi^eek's time in many cases."'

as 'it contains none of the inlurious elements o-.f frlie ordinary hair dye, helnff
entirely PREH j'rona acid, sugar of lead Eulphu.r or coal tar pioducts of any kind
Miaking' it as (harmless to the hair and scalp as ordinary water. It is for external
use only.
WILL. IT SOIIi THiEi HANDS OR SCALP? No. it will not. Our own ratented
process prevents it from staining' the hands or scalp. Canute V/ater for Gray Hair
is an especially clean, convendenrt; treatment — not being" sticky or gieasy, it restores
so naturally and evenly no one will be able to tell you are using anything.
ISI IT A CRUDE DYE? Positively not.' That Is iust the thing it isn't. Canute
Water is a simple method of reviving the youthful color of the hair that has turned
gray from age. illness or other cavse. Proof tdiat Canute Water is not a crude dye
is that it has 7io numhered shades — the same bottle is g-ood for all shades of haiir,
w'hile. as the reader knows, the crude dyes are numbered 1. 2. or S.
HOW IS IT APPDIED? Very easily.
Juat wet your hiair with it and aJ.low to

by the time you have finished the first
bottle, the j'outhful color of your hair will
be restored. It will then remain that
way, anfd simply require, a retouching once
every weelk or two as the hair grows.
CATN THE DARKENED OOLiOR WASH

sary to use Canute Water for Gray Hair

Millions Are Trying to Solve The Burning Questions
HOW TO REDUCE THE COST OF LIVING
What is the largest single item in j-our cost of
living? It is the FOOD you eat. Is it not? It
is your FOOD BILL each week that takes such a
heavy toll from the money you get to live on.
You have tried and tried to figure out how to
materially reduce that outlay, but with little or
no success. There is a limit to stinting and you
dare not go too far for fear of jeopardizing the
health of your family. And so you've eono along,
doing the best you could, confident that you could
do no better.
But you CAW do better— not by stinting, not
by depriving yourself of the things that are good,
wholesome, nourishing, appetizing and delicious —
but by the proper SELECTION of foods, in the
CORRECT proportions and rightly BALANCED.
The best part of it is that besides cutting
your food bill down to a very marked e-xtent,
you can improve the standaid of HEALTH of
your family to a very marked degree!
Dr. R. L. Alsaher, a physician of prominence
and an authority on foods and food ohemistiv,
has written a remarkable little hfcok that shov/s
you how to live better for less money, how to
have_ better health through better living and how
ta increase your mental power and earning
capacity.
In this booh Dr. AJsa ker tells you what foods
are NECESSARY and WHY; what foods are
GOOD for you and what foods are NOT; how
foods you eat ACT in your stomach and WHY;
how to substitute expensive foods for inexpen-
sive foods, and what children shotild have and
Dr. Alsaker tells you in simple, every-day,
non-technical English all about these things so
necessary for you to Imow. not only for your
health's sake, but also for your pocketbook's
sake. He tcUa you what to eat for breakfast,
limch and dinner. He outlines a wide variety
of meals, each one of which will give you all
the nourishment }'0U need, and each one of
which will cost you surprisingly little to prepare.
Do not confuse these meals with a "diet."
They are good old fashioned meals that will
sustain you and lieep your stomach and blood as
they SHOULD be kept — piu'e, sweet and clean.
In this book you are going to learn so many
fascinating, interesting things about food that
you never knew before, that you will consider Its
purchase one of the best investments you have
ever made. ^
The> title of this book is "How to Liva on Sj,
Meals a Day." It is a finely printed hook,^
bouird -in boards, embellished in gold. To gam
the widost possible distribution for this volume
and bring it within easy reach of everyone the
price has been made so low as to just cover cost
of preparation, packing and mailing— $1.10.
It will be sent to you on receipt of price
with this pririlege: That if after following Dr.
Alsacker's advice for one week you are not
satisfied that you can save far more than its
cost every week and improve your health, return
the book to the publisher and your money will be
refunded. , „ >T/^^^r

at the beautiful rainbow -colored pictures

the dear, familiar Mother Goose creatures
they love — and then best of all, they take
out the record and put it on their little

crows and all kinds of funny squeals and
squeaks that will make the children shout
with delight.
Each volume is complete in itself, with,
three phonograph records, each in a little
po.cket in the book, just imade to fit. The
children love them, and you can alv/ays
keep adding to their collection — for there
are already nine publis.hed, and ever so

A WIFE
Into the hotel lobby walked a beau-
tiful 'woman and a distinguished man.
Little indeed did the gay and gallant
crowd know that around these heads
there flew stories of terror — of murder
— and treason. That on their entrance,
lialf a dozen detectives sprang up from
different parts of the place.
Because of tliem the lights of the
War Department in Washington blazed
far into the night. With their fate was
wound the tragedy of a broken mar-
riage, of a fortune lost, of a nation be-
trayed.
It is a v/onderful story with tlie kind
of mystery that you will sit up nights
trying to fathom. It is just one of tlie
stories fashioned by that master ot

New York — Physicians who have tested
the sap o.£ the Mex.ican Maguey Plant in
the treatment of diseases of the kiclneiiB
believe that an important discovery has
l5een made.
T'lie Theraipeutic Gazette, a leading
medical journal, says: "Numerous contri-
butions Ihave been made to medjicaJ liter-
ature on the curative value of th& fre^i
and fermented sat) of the Maguey. It is
most generally recognized amd widely used
in diseases Oif malnutrition, and esioe-
cially where this has led to disease of the
kidneys and bladder. In congested and in-
flamed states of these organs, in renal
inadequacy due to an atonic cotidition of
the epithelial cells of the kidney associated
with albumin in the uilne and collectively
referred to as Brlffht's Disease. It has been
found to ho an almost unfailing remedy."
Reports of definite results im a large
number of chronic and long-standing cases
of kidney trouble have created a persistent
demand for this sap. which is popularly
known under the name of AGMEIi, and
considerable quantities are being imported
iato the United States.

A remarkable new discovery has
been made which Is revolutionizing
the methods of eye treatment. Weak
eyes are made strong. Many eye
troubles of long standing are being
banished in a short time, in this
article tht> author tells details of
this wondecrul new treatment which
requires neither glasses nor medi-
cine.
By Bernarr Macfaddesi
OME years ago, a month of
severe eye strain — night
and day- — had hurt my eyes
so much that a j)i'ii^ted page
looked like a black splotch. My
eyes watered and pained con-
stantly and I felt that I was in
danger of losing the precious
i>''ft of sight. I knew that if I
sta. . d to wear glasses and wore
thci- long enough my sight might
be saved, but my eyes would al-
wavs be crippled. A crutch for
J failing sight was not what I
wanted. What I was looking for
was a way to make my eyes per-
manently strong.
If your vision is defective and
you put glasses in front of your
ej'^es, you're treating th effect
rather than the cause. For glass-
es do Bot correct the cause of
most eye troubles. Instead, the
eyes learn to depend upon them
and get weaker every day. But
if you go to the root of your eye
trouble and correct the cause,
then you have a permanent cure.
iThat's what I wanted — and got !
I knew that the eyes are con-
trolled by a set of muscles and
nerves. I was convinced that the
jnuscles of the eye were no dif-
ferent from any other muscles — =
convinced that they could be
strengthened in the same way
that you can strengthen the mus-
cles of your leg or arm. And
with a fev/ simple principles of
A recent photosraph of
Bernarr Macfadden, the author.
eye exercise I started out to make
my eyes strong.
The almost immediate results
astonished me. At once I felt
that my sight was improving.
My eyes stopped watering and
all pain disappeared. It was not
long before I had completely
restored them to their former
strength.
My eyes got so strong that I
could read without strain under
any kind of light — could see
clearer and further — and had a
keener, more sparkling look than
before my trouble. I have never
worn glasses and today at the
198
age of fif?y my eyes never strain
or water at the finest type.
The simple rules I used have
been put into practice in thou-
sands of test cases. Of the many
cases taken for treat- ___^___„
ment hundreds were
■given immediate relief
from all kinds of
troubles — scores oi
others were completely
cured. Then these
new methods were
tested in the public
schools and thousands
of little children wgre
cured of eye troubles.
These discoveries are
of vast importance to
the peojDle suffering
from eye trouble. So
with the assistance of
a well-known Opthal-
ogist, I have put these
new methods into a
course for personal,
home-applicat ion, called,
"Strengthening the Eyes."
No claim is made that this
course is a cure-all. In many
cases glasses are essential. But
if you are wearing glasses be-
cause of faulty refr-^ction — far
or near sightednes.', -astigma-
tism — cross eyes — squint —
w,eak, watering eyes — eye head-
aches or strain, you at least owe
it to yourself to give these
methods a fair test.
Your Eyes
Are Precious
Tour sight is your
most precious gift.
Weak eyesight
means weak power
of observation, eye
strain, eye disease,
and untold incon-
venience. Take no
chances -with your
eyes — ^you cannot
get along without
them. Make them
stronger eveny day
instead of weaker.
One woman writes:
"I notice a great
improvement in my
eyes since learning
to use 'them right."
Another user says:
"Tour Eye Strength-
eningCourseis fine.
My eyes are alneady
improving."
(Naonea on request.)
ANYTHING worth having
is worth fighting for.
What is more precious
than# sight? Surely, you would
be willing to devote five, ten,
fifteen minutes a day to be freed
19S
oJ the inconvenience of glasses;
surely the promise of perfect,
strong vision should prompt you
to give these ^ew discoveries a
trial.
To prove to you our
sincerity in making
these statements, we
want you to use this
wonderful course for
five days — Free. You
test it at our expense;
don't send a cent,
merely mail the cou-
pon and the entire
course goes to you at
once.
Keep it free for five
days. If 3'ou find that
the course will not ben-
efit y o u r particular
case, send it back and
you won't be out a
cent. But if it does
benefit you, keep it and
send us the small -cost,
$5.00; less than you would pay
for one pair of glasses.
Don't send a penny now,
merely mail the coupon. You
need not keep the course unless
it can do you real good. This
won't cost a cent to try and may
mean a complete cure for yo"
Maii the coupon now befo
slips your mind, and you m^j

Every day you put ort training you have to pay the price of not knowing how. The amount you

BIG SUCCESSFUL OPERATORS PROTECT THEiVSSELVES. WHY DON'T YOU?
The theory and operation of Puts and Calls is unappreciated by most
people who are familiar with other forms of Wall Street investment
and speculation. The fact that Puts and Calls insure your trading-
operations, protect your profits, reduce your marginal requirements
and offer speculative opportunities with unlimited profits from small
investment, should induce everyone interested in stock market move-
ments to carefully study the subject of Puts and Calls. Our booklet

With Shunt Resistance —
U, 5. Navy andU,S, Army
Standard,
The Radio Officers of the NC planes, after testing
all other buzzers, decided to use the "iMesco" on
their radio equipment. The R-'34 was equipped
with two.
Why? Because of its reliability and constancy
in operation; greater output efficiency; ease of ad-
justment; unaffected by extreme variations in
weather conditions; no exposed wires.
Sparking is almost entirely eliminated, so that
the energy lost in light and heat in the operation
of other buzzers is here conserved and radiated in
the form of oscillating energy.
This buzzer maintains a constant note and is
recommended as an exciter for checking wave-
meters where pure note and ample energy are required. Weighs 4 ozs. pack-ed.
List No. 55 — IViesco Radio Buzzer. Price, postage extra $2.05
esc© Relay Operalieg Morse Key
This key is made in accordance
with the specifications of the U. S.
Bureau of Steam Engineering and
is of the very highest grade of
workmanship. It is designed to
enable the operator to secure max-
imum speed. Weighs 11 ozs. packed-
List No. 81— IViesco Relay Operating

You do not have to accept the crumbs of life's
wealth, health and pleasures; you do not have
to be satisfied v^ith less than your full share of
happiness ; you do not have to suffer because you
do more thinking or more work or abuse your-
self in other ways to a greater degree than you
can now stand; you do not have to be inferior!
'OU can easily and
quickly become
what you have always
wanted to become — su-
perior to others, superior
even to Nature — ^imper-
vious to old age or physi-
cal slumping or mental
Backsliding. You can
grow stronger, brainier,
happier, younger as the
years roll by. I not only
prove it — I guarantee it.
If you possess only
sufficient energy and vi-
are over-tired mentally or
physically— you are only
half alive,— -you are not
thoroughly qualified to
win against the competi-
tion you are up against.
Stop Deceiving Yourself
There is no fraud hke
self-deception. l?ou may
think you are young,
strong, brainy, energetic
and happy, yet when com-
pared with other men or
women you are ill, weak,
tality to carry you through each dull, listless and unhappy. You

only under the most favorable con- ble of accomplishing because you

"pep," energy, confidence and Thetruth if you will only acknowledge it
, . . „ to yourself, is that you are only a dwarf

Alive
The Swoboda System of Conscious Evo-
lution makes you a better himian being than
othei-s, physically and mentally. It enables
you to dominate others — it enables you
to out-think others - it enables you to
out-endure others. It so vitalizes every organ,
cell and tissue as to make the mere act of
living a joy. If gives you a thrilling and
pulsating nature -it can increase your very
life. I not only promise it; I guarantee it.
Read my guarantee and learn what I mean
by perpetual youth. Conscious Evolution
does not know what 50% efficiency is. It
produces 100% life, energy, health and suc-
cess.
Become a Giant in
Health and Mind
Conscious Evolution is a simple, scientific,
practical, convenient and easy method of de-
veloping every cell in the body to its highest
pitch of vitality and energy. Without drugs,
medicines, apparatus - without electricity,
cold baths, massage or dieting -without ask-
ing you to deprive yourself of any of the pleas-
ures or habits that you enjoy -without asking
you to do anything you do not like to do.
Conscious Evolution will give you energy
and vitality to spare, digestive power to spare,
self-reliance to spare, youth to spare, living
power to spare and working power to spai'e.
It will make you a giant in health and mind
instead of a dwarf.
Cultivate the Cells
The body is made" up of bi lions of tiny
cells. These cells are of varied degrees of
activity. Some are alive, some aro weakened,
some are practically lifeless and some are totally
dead. When your stomach troubles you,
when your heart bothers you, when your liver
complains, when your intestines protest,
when your bones ache, when your brain be-
comes cloudy or foggy, it is a sign that the in-
active, non-alive cells have secured the upper
hand. Only through Conscious Evolution of
the cells can you
Double Your Energy
and Earning Power
Your success depends entirely upon your
health, vitality, memory and will power.
Without these all knowledge becomes of small
value, for it cannot be put into active use.
The Swoboda System of Conscious Evolution
can make you tireless, improve yoiu* memory,
intensify your will powei" and make you phy-
sically just as you ought to be. It will at
least double your energy. It will at least
double your earning capacity. It has been
followed by men like Ohai-les E. Hughes,
F. W. Vanderbilt, Howard Gould, W. G. Rocke-
feller, Jr., Percy A. Rockefeller, W. R. Hearst;
Alfred I. du Pont, Otto H. Kahn, Charles F.
Swift, Woodrow Wilson, Frank A. Vanderlip;
Simon Guggenheimer, Oscar Straus, Maxine
EUiott, and hundreds of other big men, afl
well as by over 325,000 others in every waltt
of hie.

The Story of a Man Who Thought of Himself as a Success
and Learned His Mistake in Time to Really Become One
A FEW months ago a young man who
had made a remarkable record
with another firm was added to
our force at a salary which seemed to
me high for a man of his years.
I made it a point of meeting hirn and
as a matter of courtesy, I as-ked him to
lunch with me.
From the first he proved to be excel-
lent company. I was only too glad to let
him lead the conversation. He seemed
to be perfectly at home on any subject
and talked with an easy flow of lan-
guage of which I was frankly envious.
I put him down as a student and trav-
eler, who after a university education
■had been able to spend a few years in
cultivating an appreciation for and a
knowledge of the things in life which
leisure and money permit one to enjoy.
At my invitation he and his wife called
at our home not long afterward. In the
course of the evening I asked him, cas-
ually, about his earlier life and education.
A Discovery
"I was forced to drop school when I
■was 16 years old," he said. "My parents'
circumstances at the time demanded
that I go to work and I have been work-
ing steadily ever since.
"During my early years in business it
seemed to me that there was not much
hope for a man whose education was as
limited as mine. I felt at a disadvan-
tage in the presence of men who had
1t)uilt a mental background through
education. They lived and moved in a
world of pleasures from which I seemed
to be barred.
"I would never (be able to go to school
again — I knew that — and the fact was a
■continual source of grief to me up to the
time I learned of the iMentor Association
and its work.
"I became a member at once. "What-
ever I have gained in the way of broad-
ened viewpoint and familiarity with the
test things the world offers and the
ability to meet men of university train-
ing on an equal plane I owe to my mem-
'borship in the Mentor Association."
Before our guests left that evening I
found out more about the Mentor Asso-
ciation, and shortly afterward joined it
myself.
Mental and social pleasure that I never
knew existed have opened up before me.
The ability to talk of things other than
^business has led me to increasingly
wider acquaintance. The five minutes or
so a day that I devote to acquiring a
grasp of reylly golden knowledge has
■become a dollars and cents asset to me.
I believe that I have at last the right to
think of myself as a success, not onlyi
in business but in the art of living and
in getting the full enjoyment and profit
out of every day. But for a chance
acquaintance the biggest thing in hfe
would have passed me by.

This new profession ' of Traffic
Mamagrement — in which salaries as
high as $25,000 a year are paid — ia
in crying need of 'more trained men.
Transportation controls the nation's
industry. The freight charges of the
country's 1,000 railroads mount to
the stupendous (figure of two biH'on
dollars annually. ''Some idea of the
importance of the traJffic-man's work
can be gained ifrom these few of a
thousand similar instances that occur
every day:
— A ■certain concern in South Chi-
cago was shipping about 200 cars of
coke daily to its Eastern smelters. A
traffic expert succeeded in getting
tlie rales adjusted so that about $5.00
was .s9A'ed on e'ach car — a saving of
over $300,00O_ on the year's business!
— In St. I^ou's, through misrouting
of freight, errors in reconsigning cars
and by under-charges, a railroad lost
over $27,000.
—Through the efforts of a traffic
expert a recent adjustment of rates
wa.9 made that resulted in a refund
of $120,000 to the Meeker Coal Com-
pany.
Is it any wonder that shippers are
willing to pay high salaries for com-
petent, well tra.ned Traffic Mana-
gers? He is the man who k,nows
how to classify and route shipments
in order to o'btain the lowest rates
and the best possible service. He
knows the intricate rules and laws of
Interstate -iCommerce so that daanage
claims, demurrage and other trans-
portation problems are handled with
accuracy and dispatch.
Unlimiied Opportunities Now
Right noWrt more than ever before,
there is an urgent need for efficiently
trained men in traffic work. 60,000
big corporations need expert Traffic
Manager.?. Boards of Trade, Cham-
bers of Commerce, State Railway
and Public Utility Commissions need
Traffic Secretaries and Experts. The
field for Consulting Traffic Managers
for a number of smaller concerns is
practically untouched and represents
unliimited possibilities for those who
train for ,it.
You Learn at Home in
Spare Time.
Realizing the great need for trained
traffic experts, and seeking relief,
the American Commerce Association
offers to give men training to make

nes
ATEST Income Tax returns show
that Law-trained men are far in
the lead as earners of large sala-
The classification also shows that
more than 20% of all law-trained men
are earning over $3000 a year.
An analysis of the leading industries
shows that law-trained men lead in
business. From Department heads to
Presidents, you find that law-trained
men have been selected as executives,
mainly on the strength of the benefits
they have derived from training them-
selves in the law.
Law-tra ined men are pro-
moted rapidly
You men in business who are not making
the money you think you should be making -
consider the reason why men who Unow
the law are so successful. Their training
eomZ'e^s success!
Increase your chances
for success
Law-training not only gives a man the mental
training and knowledge so essential to success
-but it also develons his reasoning powers -
his command of Enghsh -his ability to analyze
keenly and quickly. Knowing law adds pres-
tige to a business man's name, importance to
his decisions, and emphasizes his standmg m
the world ol affairs.

JAMES BERGMAN f;.il,K",8'9''3"'' NEW YORK
231
Some men seem to attract success^ power, wealth, health and attain-
ment with very little conscious effort; others conquer with great
difficulty, still others fail altogether to realize their ambitions,
desires and ideals. Why is this so ?
The Master Key will tell you why! It will tell you that these
things are controlled by Natural Laws, precisely the same as the
falling of an ajople.
The Master Key is a key with which many are converting loss into
gain, fear into courage, despair into joy, hope into fruition. No
one will emerge from its magic pages but Avith a firmer grasp of
the future, a surer understanding of what he can do.
This may seem to be too good to be true, but remember that within
a few years, by the touch of a button or the turn of a lever, science
has placed almost infinite resources at the disposal of man, is it not
possible that there are other laws containing still greater
possibilities }
An understanding of this law will enable you to control every other
power which exists. It is without doubt the greatest discovery of
the Twentieth Century. In it may be found the remedy for every
ill, the solution to every difficulty, the gratification for every
desive; in fact, it would appear to be the Creator's magnificent
provision for human emancipation. "
!A copy of this magnificent, richly bound, hundred-page book will
be sent to any address, without cost or obligation of any kind.

14 The Austrian Peace Treatij.
THE AUSTRIAN PEACE TREATY.
The Treaty of Peace with Austria, handed to her delegates at St. Germain, June 2, 1919, ratified by
the National Austrian Assembly on October 17, 1919, and signed by President Karl Seitz of Austria on
October 26, 1919, agrees in many respects with the Treaty of Peace with Germany.
p~. The future Austrian frontiers are stated in the Treats as follows: (1) On Northern Ftontler (bordering
Czechosiovalcla) the existing administrative boundaries which separated Bohemia and Moravia from Upper
and Lower Austria — subject to certain financial rectifications, especially la tht Gmund and Feldsberg
regions and along the Morava River; (2) Bavarian Frontier, no change; (3) Swiss Frontier, no change;
(4) Southern Frontier on the Italian border — a line starting from the Col de Reschen and following In general
the water sheds between the basins of Inn and the Drave to the north, and the Adige, Piave, and the Taglia-
mento to tiis south. This line goes by the Col du Brenner and includes the Sexten Valley and the Height of
Tarvls within the Italian Frontiers; the Serb-Croat-Slovene Kingdom line to be improved at a future date.
By the Ti-eaty Marburg and Radkersburg are left in the Serb-Croat-Slovene State. The line passes just
east of Blelburg, and crosses the Drave above its junction with the Lavant. This goes north of the Drave;
(5) Hune.'irinn Frontier, no change.
\- Under the Treaty Austria gets thirty years from May 1, 1921. in which to make flnaucial reparation to
the Allied Powers. Austria, iilce Germany, Is required to restore to Belgium various worlcs of art; and must
give up to Poland the Gold Cup of King Ladislas; and is to restore to Czechoslovalcia many historical docu-
ments removed by Maria Theresa and works of art taken from the Bohemian P,oyal Castles by various
Austrian Emperors. Annexation of Austria by Germany is forbidden. The Austrian Army is not to exceed
30,000 men and the navy is limited to patrol boats on the Danube: and there is to be no Austrian Military
or Naval Aviation established. Austria is to bring ner institutions into conformity with the principles of
religious and political liberty and justice.
The disposition of Flume is still (Dec. 15, 1919) in abeyance.

• The Supreme Court of the United States on December 15 upheld unanimously the Wartime Prohibition
Act, approved by the President on November 21. 1918, and providing that on and after June 30, 1919, and
until the conclusion of the war and the termination of demobilization, it "shall be unlawful to sell for beverage
purposes any distilled spirits, and during said time no distilled spirits held in bond shall be removed there-
from for beverage purposes except for export." The court's decision, read by Justice Brandeis, was rendered
In suits brought in October. 1919, by the Kentucky Distilleries and' Warehouse Co., and in December, 1919.
by Dfj'foos, Bloom & Co. of New York City, to restrain withdrawals and sales. Incidentally, Justice
Brandeis declared that the constitutional amendment establishing Prohibition is binding on all the States
as well as the Federal Government.
The first action attacking the validity of National Prohibitfon was presented in the Supreme Court
on December 16 when permission was sought by the Retail Liquor Dealers' Association of New Jersey to
institute original proceedings to have the amendment declared unconstitutional in New Jersey and have
the State officials there enjoined from enforcing the act. After accepting the brief proposed by the associa-
tion, the court withheld its decision on granting permission to institute the suit. In addition to enjoining
enforcement of the amendment, the association also asked to have the court grant a similar injunction
relative to portions of the Volstead Prohibition Enforcement Act affecting the amendment.
The State of Rhode I.sland and the people thereof on December 17 became complainants before the
United States Supreme Court against enforcement of the Prohibition Amendment to the Constitution. A
petition was filed for permi.ssion to bring an original suit to resyain the Federal authorities from making
the amendment effective. The request was taken under advisement. Herbert A. Rice, Attorney-Geneiul
of Rhode I.sland, presented the petition to the Supreme Court. In doing so he acted under a resolution
adopted by the Rhode Island .State Legislature instructing him to Initiate the proceedings. The pctitioi
was directed against Attorney-General Palmer and Excise Commissioner Roper. Its purpose was to nullily
the Volstead Enforcement Act, otherwise known as the National Prohibition Act. The Eighteenth Amend-
ment was chaiged with violating State's rights.

Gen. Pershing's report on the American Army in
France, made public December 13, says: "The
earnest belief of every member of the Expeditionary
Forces in the justice of our cause was productive of
a form of self-tmpo.sed discipline among our soldiers
which must be regarded as an unusual development
of this war, a fact which materially aided us to
organize and employ in an incredibly short space of
time the extraordinary fighting machine developed in
France. Our troops generally were strongly imbued
with an offensive spirit essential to success. The
veteran divisions had acquired not only this spirit
but the other elements of fine discipline. In highly
trained divisions, commanders of all grades operate
according to a definite sj'stem calculated to concen-
trate their efforts where the enemy is weakest."

And the cares thai infest the day
Shall fold their tents like the A rabs.

iTEINWAY CONSTRUCTION has
never passed from STEINWAY
DIRECTION and STEINWAY
OWNERSHIP. The third and
fourth generations of the STEINWAY FAMILY are actively engaged in the
making of the STEINWAY PIANO of to-day. STEINWAY IDEALS have
always been faithfully maintained.
Never, by any other instrument, has the musical world been so enriched,
has musical art received such an incentive to development, as in the creation
of this marvellous medium of tonal expression. The steel, the copper, the
woods, the felts — in short, all the materials entering into its construction —
have, through all these years, been just as readily available to the manu-
facturers of other pianos, but it has remained for STEINWAY GENIUS
to combine them, in such a^manner that the human mind can conceive of no
tonal beauty more exquisite than ^hey provide
The most talented and masterful pianist can feel no inspiration so lofty,
no height of musical thought so sublime, but that he can give unrestrained
expression of it through the STEINWAY PIANO — the only piano capable
of the alternate 'bursts of power and tenderness called for by the works of
the great composers.
The very possession of a STEINWAY PIANO sets the seal of supreme
approval upon the musical taste of its owner
For the home there is no other piano in which you can take such just
pride pr find such keen delight.

THE NEW YORK .JOURNAL OF COMMERCE has one of these

many different editions daily.
THE DETROIT DAILY TIMES (Mich.) ,also has a 32-p'ag-e machine,
giving them, with great economy and facility, the productive capacity of
an octuple of any other type.
THE RlCHiMOND (VA.) NEWS-LEADER has two 32-pag-e 4-plai:e wide
presses of tlie above type (each the equivalent m prmting capacity of an
octuple of any other styl?).
THE VANCOUVER (B. C.) DAILY PROVINCE for several years
used tv>'o 24-page 2- plate wide Tubulars. They later installed two 32-page
4-plate wide machines of the above type. This second order for a new
and much larger equipment by such a puiblication is sufficient evidence
of the success of Tubular Plate principles.
THESE NEWSPAPERvS are but a few of the many scores which
liave adopted the Tubular Plate Press. Recognition by newspaper
engineers, operators and publishers of its economy, efficiency, simplic-
ity and flexibility compared to the semi-cylindi-ical style is conclusive.

"The Doctor in
Candy Form'
The very thought of candy as a means of
helping- the stomach to function properly is
interesting and appealmg. From childhood we
have associated with medicines the thought of
bitter and nauseating tastes.
Partola mint tablets are delicious, palatable
bits of mint candy with laxative qualities
added, but without a "medicine taste."
They contain ingredients which act as an
antiseptic to prevent the breeding of dis-
ease germs in the intestines.
Partola Tablets quickly and effectively clean the
bowels and liver of all accumulated impurities

Remarkable Home Cure Given by One Who Had It-
Every Sufferer to Benefit.
-He Wants
Send No Money — Just Your Address.
Years of awful suffering and misery have taught this man,
Mark H. Jackson of Syracuse, New York, how terrible an enemy
to human happiness rheumatism is^ and have given him sympathy
Avith all unfortunates who are within its gras]^. He wants every
rheumatic victim to know how he was cured. Read what he says:
"In the spring of 1893 I was attacked by Muscular and Inflammatory
Rheumatism. I suffered, as only those who have it know, for over three
years. I tried remedy after remedy, and doctor after doctor, but such relief
as I received was only temporary. Finall.y, I found a remedy that cured me
completely, and it has never returned. I have given it to a number who
were terribly afflicted and even bedridden with Rheumatism, 'and.it effected
a cure in evfery case.
I want every sufferer fi-ora any form of rheumatic trouble to try this
marvelous healing power. Don't send a cent; simply mail your name and
address and L will send it free to try. After you have used it and it has
proven itself to be that long-looked-for means of curing your Rheumatism,
you may send the price of it, one dollar, but, understand, I do not want
your money unless you are perfectly satisfied to send it. Isn't that fair?
V/hy suffer any longer when positive relief is thus offered you free? Don't
delay. Write to-day."

A FAVORITE
This standard keyboard, visible Oli-
ver has long been the world's model.
If you remember, Oliver introduced
visible "writing.
Tear after year, Oliver inventors
Ihave set the pace. Today's model —
the Nine — is their greatest achieve-
ment.
Any stenographer may turn to the
Oliver and operate it like any other
machine. In fact, its simplicity rec-
ommends it to people who have never
used a typewriter before.'
This Oliver Nine is the finest, the
costliest, the most successful model we
have ever built. If any typewriter is
worth $100, it is this handsome ma-
chine — the greatest Oliver triumph.

has already passed while you keep on promising yourself that you will "find
time" to read the great worth-while Moderns who are on everybody's
tongue — Shaw, Ibsen, Maeterlinck, Nietzsche, Tolstoy, D'Annunzio, and
all the rest? You have hours and hours every week — "golden minutes" every
day — waiting, car-riding, etc., when j'ou could pull a Modern Library handy-
\olume out of your pocket — and presto! — in a month or so you'll find you've
read three or four of the great Classic Moderns — and be talking intelligently
about them and commanding everybody's respect for your genuine knowledge.
This is the kind of reading that counts — that makes you more interest-
ing to other people — that helps you both to business and to social advance-
ment. Buy a dozen or a half-dozen or two or three of these volumes at once,
and get started! They're bound in limp croftleather, gold-staiuiied (a per-
manent asset to your library), 85 cents per vol. (postage 6c. extra.) Six
volumes for a $5 bill, if you mention World Almanac. Check the list and

Familiarity Breeds Contempt-
But Little Ills Are Now Known To Be Danger Signals
It was not so very long ago that a
cold was considered merely an inci-
dent,^ and though troublesome, per-
haps inconvenient, ^\as hardly serious
enough to require medical attention
unless it was a particularly hard one.
When, however. Pneumonia became
more prevalent and virulent some
years ago, folks began to recognize
a cold a*s the invariable preliminary
to this dangerous complaint and
recognized it for what it always had
been — a danger signal and a warning
to busy ourselves with a treatment
to correct it.
And now with the advent of the
d:'eaded Spanish Influenza and the
tiemendous> fearful record of mortal-
ity it is but seldom we hear the old fa-
miliar expression, " It doesn't amount
to anything — just a little cold." To
every one now it is a Danger Signal
demanding prompt attention.
It is most interesting and marvelous,
as a matter of fact, how faithful old
Mother Nature is in throwing out
Danger Signals to us. of approaching
illness. She is just as infallible as a
perfectly operated railroad. And if
we are wise enough to obey her block-
signals, v/e can almost invariably
avoid entering the "danger zone."
Just as does a railroad, too, Daine
Nature requires a clear track and
failing it she displays t!ie most in-
fallible Danger Signal of them all.
Physicians are unanimously agreed
that the great majority of human ills
are superinduced by an accumulation
of waste in the lower intestine —
that's the reason that a laxative is
almos": invariably the first treatment
prescribed by a physician, no matter
what j'our complaint may be.
Under our present mode of living
there are few if any folks who are
free from this accustomed waste —
that's the reason, that more drugs are
used for this particular purpose in
this country than for all other\ ills
16
combined.
As usual, before any of these ills
develop, Faithful Nature tiuows out
her Danger Signal, readily recogniaed
in slight headaches, biliousness, consti-
pation, or that feeling of inertia or
lack of ambition MJiich always accom-
panies accumulated waste — for this
waste is the most dangoous poison
knov/n to man. And v/hen the
blood in circulating takes up
even the little that it does in uassing near,
the nourishing- quality of that blood is re-
duced and all our funotions are weakened,
making us an easy piL'v to whatever com-
plaint we are naost susceptible.
Now in tills ti'me when we are properly
trying to avoid dosing ourselve.y Vifitli
medicines as much as possible, it would be
sad if Natuie heiself had not provided US'
with a natuial method of correcting our
tioubid when her Danger Signals appear.
And this she has done.
For twenty-five veais, in a conservative
way. Internal Baihs have been gaining
favor with millions of progressive Ameri-
cans as their marvelous results in mak-
ing folks well and keeping them well
by the periodiical cleansing of the lower in-
testina in la thorough though piwely natural
way ihave become widely recognized.
For that period of time Charles A.
Tyriell, M. D.. producer of the "J. B. L.
Cascade," the really effective Internal
Bath, specialized on this form of treatment
and proved conclusively that, contraiv to,
drugs, the Internal Bath, with purified
warm water, was a i-egulator rather than
a ihabit-former and was the one natural,
harmless, effective way of keeping thel
lower intestine free froni poisonous waste.
The host of people who voluntarily tes-
tify that it has made them well, keeps
them well and has added 50 pei cent, to
their efficiency speaks mo; e conclusively
than any claims that its pioduceis might
make. A common expre.ision by its users
is "I never feel so well as on the morning
after an Internal Bath." — and that is simply
because their entire phy.sical structure has
been functioning normally without the
dragging, enervating handicap of the per-
nicious, poisonous accumul.ated waste.
iDr. Tyrrell wrote a remarkable little
book on the subject of Internal Bathg
which -is the sum of his experience during
twenty- five years of his practice of this
Nature method; it will tell you interesting
facts about your functions which you have
probably never known.
If you wish to inform yourself further on
this subject, the Importance of whic!h

JOSEPH PULITZER.
April 10, 1847 >I« Ociober 29, 1911.
The World throughout the year 1919 continued its fieht for progress and reform, and followed the
Injunction of its founder, Joseph Pulitzer, never to tolerate injustice or corruption In its editorial advocacy
of National policies on the morrow of the great war. The World naturally gave first place in its attention
to the signing of a just peace. Throughout the year It was foremost in cliampiouing the Treaty of Versailles,
with the League of Nations Covenant as an essential and integral part of the great undei taking. That
the agonizing world might not be compelled to wait for peace while starvation and anarchy equally threatened
humanity, It argued strongly for the prompt ratification of the Treaty and Covenant \yithout amendments
that would commit them again to the consideration of a new Peace Congress, or separately to nations that
had already accepted peace Warnius the procrastinating Senate of the danger of anarchy, it aslted
whether it were better to choose "Wilson or Lenine" as the political leader of world thought. Upon the
new map of Europe, the new nations born into its sisterhood, The World's comments were in the spirit
of broadest liberalism, and it did not hesitate to beg on behalf of the powers lately in conflict with the
United States for peace terms possible of fulfllment as the only enduring basis of lasting accord.
lu this spirit also it became the duty of The World often to protest against uncalled-for attacks upon
Japan and Mexico which, unless energetically countered, might scatter the seeds of internatiouni mischief.
For the industrial unrest which trailed in the blood-stained and desolated path of the war The World had
but the old-faahioned remedy of Work to prescribe. While agreeing that the world-wide enhancement
of prices owing to war's destruction and consequent scarcity made substantial advances in wages necessary,
it neglected no opportunity to impress the lesson that production, uninterrupted and even Increased, was
the chief cure for social discontent in so far as Its cause was poverty and want. Especially did it set its
face against the "New Kaiserism" of labor that would set up minority rule: or cloak revolutionary plots
under the banner of labor: or foment strikes in disregard of contracts; or run counter to war regulations
prior to the signing and proclamation of peace. Its warnings against strikes whicli, as in coal mining or
the Government railway service, might palsy the industry of the entire Nation and cause untold suffciings
to the innocent public were vigorous. As a matter of public justice The World led tlie press resistance
of the United States to "The New Prusslanism" of Prohibitionism, as typified In the Anti-Saloon League
and its rule-or-ruin ofHcers. While patrioiieally ready to accept any sumptuary law it necessary for the
purposes of the war and during actual conflict. The World exposed and opposed the hypocrisy of Congress
In passing a so-called War-Time Prohibition Enforcement Act after demobilization had been completed, and
even passing it over the veto of the President almost a year after the signing of the armistice. On behalf
of the States In general it protested against the unprccefleuted sacrifice of guaranteed liberties involved
in 'Revolution by Amendment:" and for New York State specifically against the ratification of the Pio-
hlbition Constitutional Amendment by the legislative representatives of a minority of the people without
a referendtmi.
EVENING WOPiLD EDITORIAL PAGE.
The option granted this year to payers of a Federal income tax permitting them to pay the total in
four instalments extending through the year was first suggested and urged in a series of Evening World
editorials. Demand for an inquiry into the causes of the slump in telephone service in New York City
Started in the editorial columns of The Evening World. The Public Service Commission subsequently
ordered the New York Telephone Company to make an 8 per cent, discount on its subscribers' bills. A
State law passed last May providing that the Secretary of State may revoke the licenses of chauffeur.s
and operators of motor vehicles who have proved their unfitness to drive such vehicles followed a plan long
advocated by The Evening World to reduce the death rate from automobile accidents. Evening World
editorials urged upon the War Department this city's demand for a parade of the 77th Division. The
parade was soctu:ed.
The Evening World's early warnings as to housing Shortage and the menace of rent proflteerlng in
this city proved to have been far-sighted, as did also its repeated expressions of belief that President Wilson
Should and would make a direct attack upon high cost of living problems as soon as he returned from Paris.
Wide attention was given this newspaper's fight against the plan ol anthracite coal operators to put up
coal prices by deliberately shortening production.
Amid clamorings for higher street car fares in New York, The Evening World has steadily defended
the 5-cent fare policy, using the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company under its present management
as a concrete object lesson for this city
In the face of unprecedented Influences making for disorder and anarchy The Evening World has
contended that a Government whose first law is self-preservation must impose limits upon the right of
free speech. The Evening Woild has pointed out and condemned manifestations of an increasing radicalism
among public school teachers accompanying the growth of teachers' unions. Throughout the present
period of Industrial strife and transition. The Evening World has constantly urged and upheld the claims
of unorganized workers whose incomes have increased little compared with organized labor highly favored
by war; it has attacked the false and pernicious doctrine that the war left a legacy of easier times for every-
body; it has prea.ched patriotism, honest toil, and high productive effort as against lawless, predatory reach-
inge that lead to revolution and chaos.
THE WORLD'S STAFF AT THE PEACE CONFERENCE.
The World was represented at the Paris Peace Conference by Ralph Pulitzer, its Editor; C. M. Lincoln,
Managing Editor; J. M. Tuohy, London and Chief Foreign Correspondent; Herbert Bayard Swope, Louis
Seibold, Lincoln Eyre, Arno Dosch-Fleurot, Cyril Brown, and William Cook. On January 28 The World
printed from Mr. Swope a cable despatch containing the exclusive verbatim record of the Second Plenary
Session of the Peace Conference, Saturday, January 25 — when the League of Nations was proposed. Mr.
Swope sent an exclusive cable to The World from Paris on April 1 giving in detail the amendments to the
Covenant. Except for some slight verbal alterations and a few rearrangements the completed document,
when finally published, stood as set forth In his despatch. The New York Herald said it was the greatest
Journalistic teat of the Conference. Mr. Swope was Chairman of the world's press delegation in the
fight for publicity against the Council's determination to exclude them from the sessions. Ho was also
Chairman of the American Peace Conference Correspondents' Temporary Organization. Among Mr.
18 llie World — Cordinued.
Swopo'a exclusive stories sent to Tlie Woi-ld was the news tliat Italy would retire fiom the Conference aa
a result of the difference over the Flume settlement; news of the substance of the Reparation Treaty — the
latter i)rlnging The World into collision with Premier Lloj d George of England. The World won in the
battle for publicity JNIr. Swope cabled the first definite news of the cost of the war. Mr. Tuohy's articles
dealt with the British activities at the Peace Conference. Mr. Selbold made a study of the personnel of
the Peace Conference at the Quai d'Orsay, describing ail the actors in it and giving to the public a close-up
view of the characteristics of the famous men that composed'it. Early in the year Mr. Seibold accompanied
President Wilson to London, Rome, and the other Italian cities; he was granted an audience with Hia
Holiness, Benedict XV., and cabled an interview that attracted widespread attention. He wrote a de-
scription of Brest, the piincipal American base in France, which sliowed it to be a tribute to American
organization and administration. In May he made a tour of the States in the United States which had
adopted Prohioilion, and in a seiios of articles presented the workings of the policy. These articles were
published in pamphlet form by an independent agency, and 250,000 copies were distributed among the
lil)raries of the country. On November 4, 1919, assured of his election as Governor of New Jersey on the
Democratic ticket, Edward I. Edwards thanked this paper for its support during the campaign, saying:
".The World has won its light in New Jcisey against the Prohibition Amendment." Mr. Seibold conducted
for the paper the campaign against the administration of Postmaster General Burleson on account of
its alleged ineSiciencies. At one stage the telegraph conijjanies, then under Buileson control, refused to
transmit the .Seibold despatches. He Investigated the case of the impiisoned and alleged dynamiter. T.
J. Mooney, and reported the evidence incop.clusive Of !;i.s leport, 1,000,000 copies were printed in pamphlet
form by the Mooney Defense League and ciiculated He attended President Wilson on the League of
Nations speechmaki'ig tour.
The ai tides by Beatrice Baskeiville, The ^^■olld's conespondent in Italy, concerning d'Annunzio'g
coup in Fiame and the conditions there, were tl;c first veision of tlie rom.antic war episode, as seen through
the eyes of a woman journalist, to reach llie outside world
Mr. Eyie gave to the readers of The Woiid the fust corapreliensivc outloolt on the new conditions in
Goi'many, which at that time were upset by the <>.\is(cnce there of Bolshevism and armed strife in such
centres as Berlin, Munich, and Frankfort. Mr Tuohy sent through the year a series of stories about
Ireland, giving inside conditions In April The World began publishing articles By Maximilian Harden.
German editor and political philosopher, giving pen pictures of the German situation. In May, Cyrii
Brown sent froni Europe an article on the conditions in i.he region occupied in Germany by American soldiers,
with much personal matter of interest to the home folks about their boys "over there." George H. Boothby,
a staff correspondent, wrote articles about the activities of the Rainbow (42d) Division, which were widely
republished. In September Arno Dosch-Fleui ot described the Bolshevik! in Germany in aseries of articles.
His remarks on Gen. von der Goltz and his German army, drawn up for an invasion of the Baltic states,
led to action through Vv'ashington and by the Peace Conference in Paris taking notice of this breach of
the Peace Covenant. Mr. Dosch-Flcurot also sent special sltetches on the situation in the new nations
and ^ioraf of i,l'.e tlirillhig experiences of Russian officers who had escaped into these countries from Russia.
\Q achievement of The Woild was the publication, day by day, of the revelations of Gen. Erich Luden-
dorff and Gruud .\dmiral Alfred von Tirpitz Ludendoiff's book, which was written for the German people,
was annotnterl by Eugene J. Young, War Editor of The World, who also contributed a series of critical
articles, with maps, on the General's campaigns
AERONAUTICS— THE PULITZER TROPHY.
At the second Pan-Ameiicou Aeronautical Exposition, held in May at Atlantic City, N. J., Messrs. Ralph
Pulitzer, Josspli Pulitzer, Jr., and Herbert Pulitzer donated, in the name of The New York World and The
St. Louis Post-Dispatch, a handsome S5,000 prize, known as the Pulitzer Trophy, to be awarded to the
aviator making the best flight to or li-om Atlantic City ijuring the month. The winner was the ill-fated
Capt. Mansell R. James. British ace, who was lost during his return flight from Boston. The Pulitzer
Trophy is to be contested for annually until it becomes the permanent possession of the flyer winning it
lor three successive years, it displays a symbolic figure in silver, base of mahogany. One of the events
of the year was the New York-Toronto race in August, ai-ranged and conducted ^y the American Flying
Club, in which American and Canadian flyens were pitted against one another. The accounts by J. E.
Claussen of this race, printed in The World, attracted attention The trans-continental air r.ice in October
by the Army Air Service was covered by The World with equal 'fidelity. It was first to publish the news
that the navy dirigible, C-5, later wrecked at Newfoundland, purposed essaying a passage of the Atlantic.
It scored another "beat" on Roland Rohlfs's unobserved flight, in which for the first time the 34,000-foot
level was passed. /
The World was flist to despatch a correspondent to Newfoundland for the trans-Atlantic flights. Two
days after Hawker and Grieve started from England with their Sopwith biplane W. P. Beazell, of the staff,
was making ready to join them at St. John's He was with them from April 3 on. ' Throughout these
four months The World gave a complete daily record of the progress of the exploit of bridging the ocean.
He published the personal narratives ot Commanders John H. Towers, P. N. L Bellinger, and A C. Read,
of the N C boats. He arranged with Col. William N. Hensley, Jr., United States Army, the American
observer who made the return voyage, for his own story. When the Vlckers bomber set out from New-
foundland it carried from Mr. Beazell a letter to Joseph W Grigg, ot The World's London bureau. The
R-34 brought Mr. Grigg's reply to Mr. Beazell, the first complete correspondence by air between the con-
tinents. Through the instrumentality of The AVorld, Commander Read's historic craft, the N C-4, which
alone of the three seaplanes completed the journey from the United States to England, was taken to Central
Park and there assembled just ts it was on its flight.
The World during 1919 continued its attitude of watchfulness over legislation at Albany designed to
affect vitally the people of the State. It promoted good bills, which eventually became laws, and opposed
bad ones. The Albany staff, headed by Charles S. Hand, paid attention to a series of bills changing the
taxing system of the State and analyzed them for Its readers. Public a:ttention was centred, and a sane
programme of taxation to meet the increased cost ot State government and overcdme the deficit caused
by the elimination of the excise tax was adopted. Among many measures killed as a result of The World's
vigilance was the so-called Pershing Square bill, which would have created a park for the benefit of private
interests at d2d Street and Park Avenue at a cost to the city of $3,500,000.
CHEAPER AND BETTER PHONE SERVICE.
In June, The World began a crusade for cheapei and better telephone service in New York City, winning
one of the most notable victories in its history. Mr. Hand investigated the financial affairs of the New
York Telephone Company and stated the company had earned more than 817,000,000 during four years
in. excess of the 8 per cent, fixed by the Public Service Commission when It reduced rates in 1915. The
comjjany volunteered to cut its rates 5 per cent. The World insisted on a more substantial reduction.
Eventually the company was forced to accept an 8 per cent, reduction and promised to employ 1,200 additional
operators to improve its service. The saving to New York telephone subscribers is S3, 500,000. In addition
The World forced the company to put a flat five cent rate in effect for all subscribers for telephone messages
throughout the Greater City. The new agreement between the telephone company and the Public Service
The World. 19
Commission went into effect on October 1 and will continue for only one year. Beginning October 1 a
Bubscriber who bad been paying S40 annually for an 800 message service paid only 336.80.
FRAUDULENT LAND SALES STOPPED.
As a result of The World's exposures of fraudulent land Gales and the methods of buyers of tax titles-
begun in August, 1917, and still In progress, the Mayor's Committee on Taxation, of which Nathan Hiisch
Is Chairman, has restored over $5,000,000 in property— mostly to the poor. About 9,500 parcels of land
have been returned to their rightful owners This paper not only exposed the practices by which groups
fleeced men and women of small means but for many months it gave the services of Van Ness Harwood,
a staff man who, under the direction of Mr Hirseh, carried out the campaign. Land is still being restored,
and will continue to be for a long period to come. While the recovery of this amount of property — utterly
lost until the Mayor's Committee became active — is in itself important, of more lasting benefit ai-e three
measures passed by the Legislature last Spring through the aid of Governdr Alfred E. .Smith. 'This trio
of laws have eliminated tax sale speculation and have made it impossible for a dealer in suburban lots and
bis a<'ents, provided they operate in Greater New Yorlt, to fail to deliver realty bovght on the instalment
plan and keep out of jail. Heretofore they have been immune from criminal pros'- luti on.
Chapter 641 of the Laws of 1916, affecting the sale in Nassau County of property for fne non-paj'mont
of taxes, was so amended that ample notice is now given owners that their property is in danger of being
sold and permits them to'tedeem it during a period of four years by payment to the county of a moderate,
graduated penalty. The owner now deals with the county instead of with the title buyers, and pays a
fixed charfe Instead of anv sum the "shark'* might demand. -Before a title buyer may become absolute
owner of the title he buys he must institute a foreclosure proceeding. In a score of other ways the owner —
particularly the non-resident — is given protection
Section 152 of Chapter 62 of the Laws of 1909, affecting SuffolTc county, was so amended that an
owner may redeem his property sold by the county during a period of three years. As in Nassau he pays
a fixed, graduated penalty to the county and is protected from the "shark." It was in these two counties
that most of the trouble was found, for the reason that for years land operators had been cutting up larm
land and selling it to non-residents. Advantage of these purchasers was taken at every turn, with the
result that their losses ran up Into millions of dollars.
Chapter 521 of the Penal Law was amended by ins?rting three nefr sections at the end of Article 122.
This provides that any person, firm, or corporation in the City of New York, who sells property anywhere
on instalments of less than SlOO per instalment, must hold the sums received as if in trust until the final
payment is made and the property is delivered. All agents of sellers are brought under this law. . A fine
and Jail sentence awaits any person proved guilty of violating this act These laws were enacted after
conferences between the Mayor's Committee on Taxation, The World, officials of Nassau and Suffolk
Counties, .and Assistant District-Attorney Theodore L. Waugh, the latter representing District-Attorney
Edward Swann of New York County.
EXPOSING WAR FUND GRAFTING.
As The World stated editorially early in the year, it had occasion to be well satisfied with the result
Of its campaign against corrupt, unauthorized plotters. Some men were convicted. Some wasteful enter-
prises were terminated. Some undertakings, better managed, were subject to accountingTi. The report
of Assistant District-Attorney Kilroe, after an investigation created by The World, made public a mass of
material affecting bogus .ind ill-managed charities This paper thought that the public was entitled to
protection. Of 534 committees investigated 384 were driven out of business.
The World made a fight for daylight saving and, following its activities. New York City and a number
of other large commimities throughout the country have adopted local daylight saving ordinances, notwith-
standing that Congress, under pressure from the farmers, killed the Federal Daylight Saving Bill.
At Chaumont on March 21 King Albert of Belgium warmly thanked and praised The World for its
Services to his country. This he did in an informal interview with a World correspondent during a reception
at Gen. Pershing's chateau in honor of the visiting King and Queen of Belgium
The American Red Cross expressed to The World several times the appreciation of that organization
Of the efforts of this paper in behalf of war-stricken people in Europe. The World was active in raising
relief funds, and energetic also in providing and forwarding crutches, ambulances and other supplies
The World's activities aided National, State and city authorities in getting evidence against food profi-
teers. It sent Its own reporters out to gather testimony, which was of material benefit in arresting and
punishing the men who were enriching themselves by unlawful speculations in the necessities of life.
By a decision of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, Brooklyn, it was made known in May
that the contention of The Evening World for lower price gas in Brooklyn was again upheld as against the
aggressive efforts of the Brooklyn Borough Gas Company to collect the highest rates which could be got from
consumers. Under the decision of the board the concern was limited to a charge of 95c a thousand cubic feet.
On the return of the Twenty-seventh and Seventy-seventh Divisions of the Army from France The
World issued special supplements giving the histories of the divisions and their regiments.
FOOD PROFITEERING EXPOSED
Before the Mayor of New York Investigated the cold storage houses in the metropolitan district this
paper had shown, by its own men, that vast quantities of foods were hid in the big "coolers," awaiting
higher prices. The District Attorney then acted, and finally the other authorities busied themselves.
It was The World that first called national attention to the undue severity of many of the United
States military courts-martial, especially among the American expeditionary forces. The stories from
its columns were quoted In Congress and were made a part of the Governmental records
The work of service to humanity done by The World's Department of Missing People, established
eleven years ago as an assistance to people who have lost communication with relatives, or whose daughters,
sons, husbands, wives, or parents have disappeared, has continued to grow. Letters have been received
from people all over the world asking assistance in finding their Joved ones, and liundreds of families have
been reunited, lost dear ones found, and communication established with those seeking them. Descriptions
of soldiers and sailors whose fate has been left in doubt by the misfortunes of war have been printed. In
some instances relatives who have missed each other for many years have received letters from each other.
The World In Novemiber published In a series of four articles a survey of the milk situation, dealing
particularly with the distribution of the State's supply. It was shown that manufactured dairy products,
such as condensed and evaporated milk, powdered, milk, butter, cheese, etc., are consuming one-half of
the annual milk output, and are Increasing their inroads upon the milk sources of New York City. It was
Shown that the large profits of the milk industry come from the manufacturing and not from the distributing
of fluid milk. Health Commissioner Copeland thus publicly stated: "In its recent series of articles giving
a survey of certain phases of the milk situation In New York State, The World has performed an. interesting
and valuable piece of public service. The facts were carefully gathered and presented in a moat effective

THE SUNDAY WORLD MAGAZINE.
The Sunday World Magazine in 1919 was again a treasure house. Among the novels it published in
serial form were "The Lion's Mouse," by C. N. and A. M. Williamson; "The Padlocked Book," by Charles
Edwards Walk; "The Girl la liis House," by Harold MacGrath, and "The Twenty-six Clues," by Isabel
Osirander. Besides, there was a series of sporting short stories by Charles E. Van Loan, and a series of
Spanish lessons that enabled any one to acquire a knowledge of enough Spanish for all ordinary purposes.
"Tlie weekly "self-improvement page" proved of value.- In "New and Odd Things in Science" all the latest
discoveries and Inventions were described without technicalities, and in the articles bearing the title "Things
You Ought to Know" the newest ideas of great physicians and surgeons were set forth weekly in tdrms
the layman could understand. During the Peace Conference maps of the proposed redrawing of frontiers
enabled the reader to keep pace with the changes in geography. Edward H. Smith continued to lift the
veil that conceals the "under world". Karl K. Kitchen described with humor the actors of the moving
picture shows and the scenes behind the stage during the preparation of films. Alfred Frueh's cartoons
satirizing the fads and foibles of the day. Herb Roth's sketches of naval adventures in the Azores in war-
time, Samuel Kahan's pictures of Ghetto-lite in New York, Gordon Ross's colored pages of social satire.
Lee Conrey's illustrations to novels and other articles, were weekly features, while the pictures that attracted
most attention in the art exhibitions were reproduced in color. Again Louis Biedermann's skill in visualizing
a great project or invention made possible the presentation in picture form of subjects that would have
taiien many pages of text to describe. Whenever a song made a hit in comedy it was presented, words
and music, in the pages of the Magazine. Other well-known writers, whose names appeared as contributors,
were Ellis Parker Butler, Berton Braley, Arthur Benington, Henry Tyrrell, Prosper Buranelli, Charles
W. Sutherland, Rene Gibbs. Sarah MacDougall, K Berconci, Arthur Wynne, John Fan-ar, besides many
occasional contributors more or less known to fame
The Brooklyn edition of The Sunday World kept track of all the happenings across the river, and
illustrated mraiy of them.
Many exclusive photographs of international importance were reproduced in gravure in The AVorld's
picture section The first photographs of the German revolution appeared there, and The World was the
flist to publish the faces of ttie statesmen gatheied at the Peace Conference Wilson's trip abroad was
deuicted in exclusive photographs, and The World cameras followed the King and Queen of Belgium, the
Prince of Wales, and other celebrities who visited America duiliig tlie year. The progress of aviation was
shown in remarkable photographs. The World was first to publish the pictures of Lieut Locklear leaping
from one aeroplane to another in mid-air, and also the flist pictures of the dropping of a horse and rider
by a parachute. The winners in the inter-allied games in Paris were flnst pictured in The World, and new
and notable pictures of many celebrities were presented, such as the giving of the freedom of London to
Marshal Earl AUenby, Clemenceau making his peace speech to the French Deputies, and the King ol
Spain visiting Verdun.
The fourteenth conse"'cutlve year of The Sunday World Field Days, under the auspices of the Public
Schools Athletic League, was the most successful of any since their organization. It is the object of these
field days to develop among pupils the spirit of manliness and fairness in competition The President of
the Board of Education, the physical instructor, and other ofTicials of the department have given to The
Sunday World indorsement for its part in making the games on track and field representative events in
their class. More than ] 50 public schools held meets during the summer, and upward of 2,600 leaders
in their several schools took part in the final championship games in October, an indoor event at the Twenty-
second Regiment Armory. In connection with the field days The ,Sunday World made provision for un-
limited baseball on the vacation play grounds. With the approach ot cold weather squads from many
schools, including both boys and girls, resumed membership in The Sunday World Walking Club. The
school garden organization during 1919 continued and advanced the successful cultivation of gardens and
plots. The prizes, class trophies, individual medals of silver and bronze, as well as the programmes for
all these associated school movements, are always provided by The Sunday World, thus giving added
incentive to the thousands who participate in them.
BUREAU OF ACCURACY AND FAIR PLAY.
The World's Bureau of Accuracy and Fair Play completed the sixth year of its existence in July Its .
primary purpose, as declared at the outset, is to promote accuracy and' fair pla'y in the columns of The
World, to correct carelessness, and to stamp out fakes and fakers. All complaints Involving these qiiestions,
including libel actions, are turned over to this buieau and carefully inquired into and, if they are found
to 1)6 well-grounded, corrections are made, A record is kept of each case investigated, with a card index
of those responsible for articles complained of. Faking and chronic carelessness are punished by dismissal.
In practice the idea has worked out well^ Members of The World staff, and its correspondents every-
where, have, with very few exceptions, worked in hatmony with the bureau. The World^s example has
been followed by many other newspapers throughout the country.
Inspired by the spirit of fair play the bureau has created good will and confidence often even when
complaints had in the beginning been resentful When damage has rescilted from erroneous publications,
and the person injured has shown a willingness to arbitrate in good faith and unon a reasonable basis, settle-
ments have been made without recourss to the courts. The Rev. Dr. Daniel Bliss characterized the opera-
tions of The World's bureau as "the Golden Rule applied to journalism."
The bureau has made a practice of opposing attacks and complaints that have no merit. In the early
stag's of its operation it learned that there are lawyers in New York who make a specialty of stirring up
libel li'igation, and who seemingly are not adverse to representing criminals and otherwise disreputable
char.acte s who sometimes .bring suits on false and perjured complaints. A card index covering a period
of more than twenty years reveals the names of lawyers who have made a practice of stirring up libel Utlga-
The World— Continued. 21
tlon, and whenever attempts are mafle to recover damages in these cases The World has spared neither
trouble nor expense in fighting to the last ditch. As a result some lawyers have been disbarred or suspended
Irom practice, and several notoriously crooked litigants have been sent to prison. For the investigation
of complaints the bureau has an abnormally long reach. It may call upon World correspondents in any
and every corner of the civilized world for information and assistance. The telegraph, the cable, and the
wireless are at its disposal. It has sent its trained investigators throughout the United States from Maine
to California, to Canada, Mexico, and South America, and to Great Britain and all the principal countries
of Europe. In one instance, to establish the truth of an article complained of, a representative of the
bureau journeyed more than 8,000 miles. As a direct result of the bureau's activities there has been a
steady decrease in the number of libel suits brought, with a corresponding decrease in the coat of defending
them.
THE EVENING WORLD.
The Evening World in 1919 pressed a campaign over two necessities of life — coal and milk. Sophia
Irene Loeb made an investigation of both. After a trip to the coal regions she pointed out the monopoly
of the anthracite trust as responsible for the high cost of coal. She said the coal and railroads were owned
by the same interests, and that the high royalties paid by competitors made it impossible to secure lower
priced coal, only as determined by these interests The investigation aroused the Senate at Washington,
and volumes of testimony were taken as a result of The Evening World's exposuie. Miss Loeb attending
the hearings _and suggesting witnesses and testimony. The Senate committee went into the coal region
In January, 1919, accompanied by Miss Loeb, where more testimony was taken, and she presented her
findings and views. A partial report was submitted to Congress on March 3, which bore out The Evening
World. In a public statement, made by the Chairman of the Senate committee, this charge appeared:
••There Is no commodity in common use that is so absolutely monopolized as the anthracite coal f)roduction."
For nearly two years The Evening World has sought for an abundance of milk in this niost congested
City of New York at a fair price. Toward this end it championed a bill In the Legislatiire last January
to create a commission that would fix a limited profit. It was shown In the columns of the paper that the
mllfc industry had a hold at Albany; fifty-seven bills affecting milk were introduced in the Legislature
without any being passed. At the close of the session The Evening World aroused the public by showing
that over fifty-five per cent, of the milk produced in New York State is made into profitable by-products,
Buch as condensed and evaporated milk, butter and cheese, which are exported to other countries, and
for which a large and very profitable export trade is being developed. This has produced a shortage of
milk to the consumer, and higher prices accordingly. All the ramifications of the by-products business,
the great storage facilities now being developed for withholding milk from the consumer to put Into by-
products, and the fact that there is no legal check to prohibit the purchase of all the milk in the State for
these by-products purposes, as against the consumer, all was fully set forth, and it was indicated those in
the game were forcing the public to use tinned milk instead of fluid milk. These exposures, together with
the public outcry, resulted in a committee being appointed by the Governor to look into the subject; and
a report was Issued, known as the Glynn-Flnley Report (ex-Gov. Glynn and John H. Flnley, Com-
missioner of Education). This report indorsed the milk bill which The Evening World had championed
In the Legislature, rhen the Governor and Mayor Hylan appointed the Fair-Price Milk Committee,
with Sophie Irene Loeb as -a member and as Director of Investigation. The committee wUl prepare a
report, mcluding remedial legislation, to meet the situation.
The Evening World sent Martin Green, a staff correspondent, to France in January, 1919, to Join
and come home with the Twenty-seventh Division, the New York National Army organization which,
with the Thirtieth Division, aided the British forces in breaking the Hindenburg line and hastening the
end of the war. Mr. Green found the division in camp and travelled with it to Brest. His history of the
division In France, published on the day the Leviathan arrived, was the first complete and authentic account
to reach New York. During October and November of 1919 The Evening World sent Mr. Green to inves-
tigate co-operative management and profit sharing plans established In various industries in the United
States. The series of articles descriptive of these activities attracted wide attention and inspired hundreds
of manufacturers and merchants to take up the question of solving labor difficulties and promoting Ameri-
canism in industry.
The Evening World initiated a drive against Bolshevism. The campaign reached a climax when the
United States Government, the Lusk committee of the State Legislature, and New York City authorities
raided radicals and arrested hundreds, capturing twenty-five tons of revolutionary literature. The raids
grew Nation-wide.
The literary and artistic contributions to the daily magazine pages of The Evening World excelled
the high standards of previous years. Timely articles by a large staff of special wilters, including the late
Nlxola Greeley-Smith, Marguerite Mooers Marshall, and Mrs. Monica Ewer, the dramatic critic of the
Liondon Herald, made the Daily Magazine Page an entertaining feature.
Several of those on the editorial staff of the paper, who saw foreign service In the American expeditionary
force, contributed stories of the great war. These Included Capt. J. M. Loughborough, First Lieutenants
Joseph A. Brady and Gerald C. Smith, Sergt. H. H. Mc€lellan.
The Editorial Page of the magazine section was eagerly sought by the reading public, who found John
Cassel's daily cartoon an authentic reflection of the world's progress.
The Home Page was considered the best woman's page in the cotmtry. Aside from Maurice Kettcn'a
quaint humor in cartoon treatment, there appeared the best fiction obtainable from writers whose names
are well known in the world of letters. The Kiddle Klub Kolumn, conducted by Eleanor Schorer, and
numbering more than 100,000 youthful members, was an alternate daily feature with Mildred Lodewick'a
fashion column.
The Comic Page, with five leading "strippers," contributed daily to the. mirth of the country. Charles
Damton's theatrical reviews and Bide Dudley's comment on "Pla>s and Players" also appeared on this
page. The Children's Talent Department of The Evening World was started in February, imder the
direction of Roger Batchelder. Over a thousand children of the east side, were examined, and those who
showed exceptional abUity in singing, dancing or reciting, were given an opportunity to perform at The
Evening World Americanization Forums held nightly in east side schoolhouses. An elimination contest
followed; In April the best of each artistic group were brought together for a final "try-out" before comr
petent judges, all professional men and women. On April 26, at the Shubert Theatre, the fifteen "stars"
made their premieres before an audience which packed the house.

CHURCH FASTS.
The Roman Catholic days ot obligation are: Jan. 1 (Circumcision of Christ) ; Ascension Day (forty daya
'after Eiister Sunday); Aug. 15 (Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary); Nov. 1 (All Saints' Day); Dec. 8
(Immaculate Conception) ; Dec. 25 (Christmas), and all the Sundays of the j'ear.
The Roman Catholic Days of fasting are the fcJrty daya of Lent, the Ember Days, the r'ridays of
the four weeks in Advent, and certain vigils or evenings prior to the greater- feasts, while all Fridays of
the year are days of abstinence from flesh meat. In the American Episcopal Church the days or fasting
or abstinence to be observed, according to the Book of Common Prayer, are the forty days of Lent, the
Ember Days, the three Rogation Days, and. all the Fridays of the year except Christmas Day In the
Greeli Church the four principal fasts are those in Lent, the week succeeding Whitsuntide, the fortnight
before the Assumption, and forty days before Christmas.
EMBER AND ROCATSON DAYS.
Ember and Rogation Days are certain periods ot the year devoted to prayer and fasting. Ember
Days (twelve annually), about the beginning of the four seasons, are the Wednesday, Friday, and Sat-
urday after the first Sunday in Lent, in Spring: after th"! feast of Pentecost (Whit Sunday), Summer; after
the festival of the Holy Cross, Autumn, and after the festival of St Lucia, Winter. Ember Weeks are
the weeks in which the Ember Dajs appear.
Rogation Daya occur on the Feast of St. Mark, April 25, and on the three days immediately preceding
Ascension Day.
DIVISIONS
The Interval between two consecutive meridian i
transits of a fixed star having no proper motion, or
the interval during wiiich the earth makes one abso-
lute revolution on its axis, is invariable. Very
slightly differing from this is a Sidereal Day, which
is the interval between two consecutive transits of
the Vernal Equinox over any meridian. Vernal
EciUinox is employed in two senses: it may mean
either the date when Spring commences, or else, as
here, the point in the heavens occupied by the sun's
centie when Soring commences. The internal be-
tween two consecul^ive transits of the Sun over any
meiidian is called an Apparent Solar Day, and ita
length varies froiii day to day by reason of the vari-
able motion oi the earth in its orbit and the inclina-
tion of this orbit to the equator on which time is
measured.
A' Mean Solar Day is the average or mean of all
the apparent solar days in a year; it is equal to 1 day
3 minutes and 56.555 seconds, when measured in
units ot the Si.lereal Day. Mean Solar Time is that
shown by a well-regulated clock or watch, while
Apparent Solar Time is that shown by a well-con-
structed sun-dial; the difference between the two at
any time is the Equation of Time, and may amount
to IG minutes and 22 seconds. The Astronomical
Day begins at noon and the Civil Day at the pre-
ceding midnight.
The interval during which the earth makes one
absolute revolution round the Sun is called a Sidereal
Year, and consists of 365 days 6 hours 9 minutes and
9.6 seconds, wlrich is invariable
The Tropical Year is the interval between two
consecutive returns of the Sun to the Vernal Equinox.
If this were a fixed point, the Sidereal and Tropical
Years would be identical; but in consequence of the
disturbing influence of the Moon and planets due to
the spheroidal figure of the earth, the Equinox has a
Slow, retrograde mean motion of 50" 26 annually,
BO that the Sun returns to the Equinox sooner every
year than he otherwise would by 20 minutes 23.6
seconds; the Tropical Year, therefore, consists of
365 days 5 hours 48 minutes and 46 seconds. The
OF TIME.
Tropical Year is not of uniform length: it is
now slowly decreasing at the rate of .530 second per
century, but this variation will not always continue.
Julius Cssar, in b. c. 45, was the first to reform
the calendar by ordering that every year whose date
number is e.xactly divisible by 4 contain 366 days,
and al! the other years 365 days. The intercalary
day was introduced by counting the sixtu day before
the Kalends of March mice, hence the name bis-
sextile, from bis, twice, and sex, six. He also changed
the beginning of the year from the first of March to the
first of January, and also changed the name of the
fifth month (Quintilis) to July, after himself. The
average length of the Julian year is therefore 365. '4
days, which, however, is too long by 11 minutes and
It seconds, and this would accumulate in 400 years
to about three days. The Julian Calendar continued
in use until a. d. 1582, when the Gregorian Calendar
fras introduced by Pope Gregory XIll. with the
view ot keeping the Equinox to the same day of the
month. Of the centurial years only those which
are exactly divisible by 400 thenceforward con-
tained 366 days. The length of the mean Gregorian
Year may therefore be set down at 365 days 5 houis
4'J minutes 12 seconds, and the error will amount to
one day in 3,000 years. The Gregoiian Calendar
was introduced into England and her colonies in
1752, at which time the Equinox had retrograded
11 days since the Counc 1 of Nice in a. d. 325, when
the rule for Easter Day was established and the
Equinox occurred on March 21; hence September 3,
1752, was called September 14, and at the same
time the commencement ot the legal year was changed
from March ?5 to January 1, so that the year 1751
lost the months of January and February and the
first .24 days of March. The difference between the
Julian and Gregorian Cf.lendars is now 13 da.vs.
The Gregorian Calendar was adopted by Japan
in 1873, by the Chinese Republic in 1912, and
by the Turkish Parliament in the year 1917,
and by the Bolshevist Government in 1918 Greece,
the Balkan states and the GreeK Church still use
the Julian Calendar.
STAr^DARD TIME.
The United States adopted standard time in 1883, on t"he initiative of the American Railway _Asso-
clMlon. and at noon of November 18, 1883, the telegraphic time signals sent oat daily from the Naval
Observatory at Washington were changed to the new system, a'ccording to which the meridians of 75°,
90°, 105° and 120° west from Greenwich became the time meridians of Eastern, Central, Mountain, and
Pacific standard time respectively.
By Act of Congress, approved March 19, 1918, standard time is made the legal time throughout the
United States; in addition to the four time meridians already mentioned, the meridian 150° west from Green-
wich is established the time meridian of standard Alaska time; authority to readjust the bound^^ry line between
the time zones is lodged with the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Commission has made the read-
justment so as to bring the n^w limits of the zones about half way between the standard meridians. Since
Jan. 1, 1919, U. S standard-Eastern time is used from the Atlantic Ocean to a line through Toledo and Co-
lumbus, O.; Huntington, W.Va.; Norton, Va.; Johnson City, Tenn.; Asheville, N.C.; Atlanta and Macon, Ga ,
and Apalachicola, Fla U. S. standard central time is used from this first line to a line through Mandan, N.
Dak.; Pierre, S Dak ; McCook, Neb ; Dodge City, Kan.; Sweetwater and San Angelo, Texas. U. S. standard
mountain time is used from the second line to a line through Helena and Butte, Mon.; Pocatello, Idaho;
Ogdeu and Salt Lake City, Utah; Parker and Yuma, Ariz. U. S. standard Pacific time is used from the
third line to the Pacific Ocean.
For Time Difference table see Index.
Almost all countries throughout the world use standard time based on the meridians 15° apart from
Greenwich, while some use standard time based on the longitude of their national observatories.

THE ANCIENT AND MODERN YEAR.
THE Athenians began the year In June, the Macedonians in September, the Romans first in March
and afterward in January, the Persians on August 11, the anclenv Mexicans on February 23, the Moham-
medans in July. The Chinese year, wliich begins late in January or early in February, is similar to the Mo-
hammedan In having 12 montta of 29 and 30 days alternately; but in every nineteen years there are seven
years which have 13 months- This is not quite correct, aaid the Chinese have therefore formed a cycle of
60 years. In which period 22 intercalary months occnir.

HOLIDAYS OF THE WORLD.
(For full list of fixed, historical, commemorative, and religious holidays, see 1919 Almanac )
Christmas and New Year's are observed the world Over.
In Episcopal countries, such as England, th^ only church days which are regular legal holidays, aside
from Christmas, are Good Friday, Easter Monday, and Whit-Monday. This holds good for the British
colonies, in some of which several Roman Catholic Church holidays are established.
In Roman Catholic countries, such as Spain, the church days other than Christmas, which are almost
universally legal holidays, are Epiphany, Ascension, Assumption, All Saints', and Immaculate Conception.
Throughout the Latin-American countries. It is usual to observe, in gjldltion. Good Friday and Corpus
Christi. Good Friday is in many of these countries a 3-day holiday season, beginning on Holy Thursday
and closing on Holy Saturday.

HOW TO DETERMINE LATITUDES.
(A Short method, by an obsen'ation at apparent noon.)
Set down 89 degrees, 48 minutes, and take the sun's observed altitude at noon from it. This gives the
zenith distance. Maris the aenith distance north iJ the sun bears south, or south if the sun bears nortlj.
Place the sun's true declination under the zenith distance, and il they are both of one name their sum will
be the latitude; but if of different names, (1 e , one north and the other south) , their difference is the latitude
of the same name of the greater number. ^ „„ ^ „, , „. , , »i, i j _
Note — The sun's declination, con-ected for longitude 77 degrees W., may be talcen from the calendar
of the almanac, which will be near enough for places adjacent t6 the eastern coast of the United States.
The sun's observed altitude corrected for semi diameter, 16 minutes additive, and diP and refraction, about
4 minutes subtractive equals 12 minutes difference, which subtracted from 90 degrees leaves 89 degrees 48
minutes, a constant number from which to subtract the observed altitude.

Explanation. — Tae white spaces snow tne amount of moonlight each night. January 21, February
19, etc., the time of new moon, there is no moonlight for two or tliree nights: January 28, February 26, etc.;
the moon sets at or near midnight, when the first half of the night has moonlight; January 6, February 4,'
etc , full moon, when moonlight lasts the wliole night; January 12, February 11, etc., the moon rises at or,
near midnight, when the latter hall of the night has moonlight

THE MOOM.
Of all the secondary planets the earth's satellite
is by lar the most Interesting and imnortant. The
niooo completes her circuit around the earth in a
period whose mean or average length is 27 days
7 hours 43.2 minutes; but in conseauence of her
motion in common v/Ith the earth around the sun,
the mean duration of the lunar month, that is, the
time from new moon to new moon, is 29 days 12
hours 44.05 minutes, which ia called the moon's
eynodlcal period. If the eartti were motionless in
Bpace the moon's orbit would be nearly an ellipse,
having the earth in one of the foci; hence her dis-
tance from-the earth varies during the course of a
lunar month. Her mean distance from the earth
Is 238,862 miles. Her maximum distance, however,
may reach 252,830 miles, and the least distance to
which she can approach the earth is 221,520 miles.
Her diameter is 2,160 miles, and if we deduct from
her distance from the earth the sum of the two radii of
the earth and moon, viz , 3,963 and 1,080 miles, re-
spectively, we shall have for the nearest approach
of the surfaces of the two bodies 216,477 miles.
Her orbit is a very intricate one, because the earth
in moving around the sun carries the moon along
with it; hence the latter is sometimes within and
sometimes without the earth's orbit. Its form is
that of a serpentine curve, always concave toward
the sun, and Its plane is Inclined to the plane of the
earth's orbit at an angle of 5° 9', in consequence of
which our satellite appears sotnetimes above and
sometimes below the plane of the earth's orbit,
through which she passes twice in a revolution.
These points of Intersection with the ecliptic are
called nodes, and it Is only at or near them that
eclipses can occur. The nodes have a retrograde
motion, which causes them to make an entire revolu-
tion in 18 years 218 days 21 hours 22 minutes and 46
seconds. Both sun and moon return to a nodp after
18 years and 11 days, so that an eclipse is followed
by another of the same general character at the end
of this period, which was well known to the ancients,
who called it the Saros, and which was made use of
by them in roughly predicting eclipses.
The moon always presents the same face to us,
as Is evident from the permanency of the various
markings on her surface. This circumstance proves
that she revolves on an axis, and the time of rota-
tion Is exactly equal to the time of revolution around
the earth, viz., 27.32166 days. The moon's axis is
not perpendicular to the plane of her orbit, but de-
viates therefrom by an angle of about 6° 41'. In
consequence of this fact the poles of the moon lean
alternately to'and from the earth. When the north
pole leans toward the earth we see somewhat more
of the region surrounding it, and somewhat less
when it leans the contrary way. This displacement
is known by the name of libration in latitude. By
reason of irregular motion in her orbit, we see more
of her eastern or western edge at one time than at
another. This phenomenon is known as' libration
in longitude.
The moon's surface contains about 14,657,000
square miles, or nearly foiu' times the area oi Europe.
Her volume is 1-49 and her mass 1-81 that of the
earth, and hence her density is about 3-5 that of the
earth, or about 3 2-5 that of water. At the lunar
surface gravity is only 1-6 of what it is at the earth,
and therefore a body which weighs 6 pounds here
would weigh only 1 pound there.
The centre of gravity of the earth and moon, or
the point about which they both actually revolve
in their course around tlie sun, lies wUMn the earth;
it is 1,063 miles below the surface.
The tides are caused mainlj. by the moon; the tide-
raising power of moon and sun being as 5 to 2.
The moon has no atmosphere and no water.
The suddenness with whicli the stars are occulted
by the moon is regarded as a conclusive proof that
a lunai' atmosphere does not exist, and the spectro-
scope furnishes negative evidence of the same char-
acter.
In remote ages the lunar surface was the theatre
of violent volcanic action, being elevated into cones
and ridges exceeding 20,000 feet high, and at other
places rent into farrows or depressions of corre-
sponding depth. The lunar volcanoes are now ex-
tinct. A profound silence reigns over the desolate
and rugged surface. It is a dead world, utterly un-
fit to support animal or vegetable life.
THE EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE.
The earth's sensible atmosphere is generally
supposed to extend some forty miles in height,
probably further, but becoming at only a few miles
from the surface of too great a tenuity to support
life. The condition and motions of this aerial ocean
play a most important part in the determination
of climate, modifying, by absorbing, the otherwise
Intense heat of the sun, and, when laden with clouds,
hindering the earth from radiating its acQulred heat
Into space.
HALLEY'S COMET.
Op the great number of comets which have tem-
porarily visited our solar system or have become
germanent members of it none has surpassed Halley's
1 historical associations. It has a record dating
back to B. C. 240; Its visitations spread alarm and
consternation throughout Europe during the Middle
Age»; was the first whose return was predicted by
an Astronomer Royal of England, and will therefore,
for these reasons, be an object of great sclsntlflc
interest for all time. Its periodic time is 76.8 yeais
and in April, 1910, it made the perihelion passage
for the twenty-ninth time.
ENCKE'S COMET.
is constantly accelerating and its period is decreas-
ing In proportion, being now 1,203 days as compared
with 1,205 days in 1819. At first this was ascribed
to a resisting medium; but it Is more probably due
to repeated passage of the comet through a cloud
of meteors.
The second of the periodic comets td^be discovered
was -Encke's, as Halley's was the first. Encke's
Comet has the shortest , period known, namely,
about forty months. The observed visitations, from
January, 1819, to March, 1918,' form an uninterrupted
series, thirty-one In number.'
Encke's Is unique among comets in that its motion
COMETS OF 1843 AND 1882.
In the last 100 years only two comets have been brilliant enough to be seen by day with the unaided eye.
Of these one was In February, 1843; the other. In September, 1882. Together with the comet of 1668 and
that of 1887, they form a comet group; each member, at perihelion, nearly brushes the sun's surface, that of
1843 having a velocity of 366 miles per second and passing halfway around the sun in two hours. These
visitors are expected to return after six or seven centuries. The four comets were probably a single body
until too close an encounter with the sua resulted In disruption.

ANSWERS TO WEATHER QUgRIES.
(By Prof. Marit W. Haxrington, In The National Geogi-aphlc Magazine )
Q. Will a noise make rain? A. No; there is no reason In theory or practice to make us think it will.
Q. Will a concussion make rain? A. It will probably jostle the droplets in a cloud and may bring
a few together, which may coalesce and become large enough to cause them to fall to the ground — a few
scattering drops only.
Q. Will smoke or dust released in great quantities produce rain? A. Floating particles of spongy
texture will absorb the moisture hygrosoopically. II the air is dry this will make it drier, and prevent rain.
If the air is, very moist and near saturation any solid particles in the an- will facilitate the condensation;
vrttness the expenments of Aitken and Barus. Thus, when other conditions are very fa^vorable, an addition
Of much dust or smoke to the air might determine a fall of rain.
Q. Will the expansion of carbon anhydride produce rain? A. Mr. Gathman says he has tried it
and with success Experiments should be made systematically.
Q. Will electric connection with a cloud aid in rain formation? A. M. Baudouln says it does.
• Q-, Will a conflagration produce rain? A. Quite probably, under favorable circumstances. It acts
'?=J??^ "'^® *" '''"£& nature acts, according to the best of our knowledge. Condensation is the result of
chilling the air. The theory of chilling by mixture, the Huttonlan theory, a century old. is now known
to be inemclent. The chilling in nature seems to be due either to the ascent of air and its consequent ex-
pansion and loss of heat, or the chilling of one cloud by having the shadow of a higher cloud fall on it in
sunlight. The chilling by ascent is the method evoked in the Espy plan, and appears to be by all odds
the most effective rain producer In nature.
Q. _ If rain can be made, how much will it cost? A. This is truly an American question and quite
appropriate to the fln de siecle. Mr. Powers, who, by the way, says that Mr Dyrenforth did not after
all really try his experiment, put the cost of one experiment with Government aid at 880,000. Gathman
says he can sprinkle the earth at a cost of from S30 to S90 a square mile. Espy proposed to fire the low
fwest growths at regular intervals at a cost less than five mills per citizen per year. The method of con-
cussion costs tbe comfort and peace ol all within hearing, a cost which a much more certain reault would
not justify.

Two heavenly bodies are in "conjunction" (6) when they have the same Right
Ascension, or are on the same meridian, i. e., when one is due north or south of the
other; if the bodies are near each other as seen from the earth, they will rise and set
at the same time; they are in "opposition" (§ ) when in opposite quarters of the heavens,
or when one rises just as the other is setting. "Quadrature" (n) is half way between
conjunction and opposition. By "greatest elongation" is meant the greatest apparent
angular distance from the sun; the planet is then generally most favorably situated for
observation. Mercury can be seen with the naked eye only at this time. When a
planet is in its "ascending" (Q) or "descending" (U) node it is passing through the plane
of the earth's orbit, i The term "Perihelion" means nearest to the sun, and "Aphelion"
farthest frqm the sun. An "occultation" of a planet or star is an eclipse of it by
Bome other body, usually the moon.

From the photometric study of eclipsing binary stars it has been shown by Roberts and by Russell
that the average densities of these stars is small, no more than one-eighth of that of the sun. On this and
, other grounds astronomers are of the opinion that stars are generally less dense than the sun; that Is, that
I they occupy a larger volume when of equal mass. The sun is only 1.4 times as dense as water, or half aa
dense as glass, while our earth is 5.5 times as dense as water, or 4 times as dense as the sun.

ECLIPSES.
In the year 1920 there will be four eclipses, two of the sun and two ojf the moon.
1. A total eclipse of the moon. May 2, visible in the United States, beginning at 7h. Im. P. M. and
ending at lOh. 41m. P. M. Eastern standard time (old)'. Totality begins at 8h 15m. P. M., and ends at
9h. 27m P. M. Visible generally In the western countries of Europe and Africa-, on the Atlantic Ocean,
and in the eastern parts of North and South America.
First contact with the shadow is 83 " from the north point of the moon toward the east. East contact
Is 59 ° from the north point toward the west.
2. A partial eclipse of the sun. May 18, Invisible In the United States. Visible generally throughout
Australia and the Indian Ocean.
Magnitude of greatest eclipse 0.973 (Sun's diameter = 1.0).
3. A total eclipse of the moon, on the morning of October 27, Invisible at New York. Visible generally
throughout Asia, Australia, the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Eclipse begins at 4h. 26m. A. M. Pacific time
(old), or Ih. 56m. P. M. Hawaiian time; and ends at 5h. 28ra , A M. Hawaiian time. Totality begins at
5h 29m. A. M. Pacific time, or 2h. 59m. A. M. Hawaiian time, and ends at 6h. 54m. A. M. Pacific time, or
4h. 24m. A. M. Hawail.an time.
First contact with the shadow is 90° from the north of the moon toward the east. Last contact la
118° from the north point toward the west.
4. A partial eclipse of the sun, November 10, visible In the Northern and Eastern States, throughout
the North Atlantic, in Great Britain, France, Spain and the north-western part of Africa.
Magnitude of greatest eclipse = 0.742 (Sun's diameter = 1 .0) . For local circumstances in the United
States, see below. ,
THE MACNETtC POLES.
The geographical poles of the earth are the extremities of the imaginary line passing through Its centre
of gravity and about which It revolves, and are therefore symmetrically located with regard to the equator.
The magnetic poles, however, are not coincident with the geographical poles, nor are they diametrically
opposite to each otfter. Prior to the recent attempt of Amundsen to determine tlie north magnetic pole,
the only other was by Capt. James Ross in June. 1831, who found the dip of the magnetic needle to be
89° 59' .5, in latitude 70° 5' .2 N. and longitude 96° 45' .8 \V., which is in King William Land, Canada.
The result of Amundsen's observations has not yet been published by the Norwegian authorities.
For the south magnetic pole, from a consideration of all the results available, according to the United
States Coast and Geodetic Survey, the position latitude 72° .7 S and longitude 156° E. has been tentatively
adopted. These values are only roughly approximate, and for that reason are given only in degrees and
t-^nths.
By reason of the annual variation of the magnetic needle, it is believed that the magnetic poles are
not stationary, but have a slow motion around the geographical poles. The subject is shrouded in mystery
and constitutes one of the many as yet unsolved problems In terrestrial physics.
FACTS ABOUT THE STARS:
Cold Iron does not shine In the dark, but let the smith heat it in his forge and soon ft glows red, then
yellow, then white hot, says C. G. Abbot, of the Smithsonian Institution. The hotter the body Is the more
lt.^ spectrum is enriched toward the violet end as compared with the red. Exact mathematical relations
are known to connect temperature and distribution of light in the spectrum. Working on this basis, it la
found that our sun's surface appears to be at about 6,000° centigrade (10,800° Fahrenheit) above the melt-
ing temperature of ice. By photographic methods Wilson and Scheiner, of the Astrophyslcal Observatory
at Potsdam, In Germany, have assigned temperatures to about 100 of the brighter stars. The results rua
from 9,000° C. for class B down to 3,000° C. forjjiass M, varying in fairly regular progression.
Even the length of a diameter of the eartri is too small a base line from which to triangulate for the
distances of the stars. Astronomers use the diameter of the earth's orbit round the sun, 186,000.000 milea.
for this. Astronomers also take advantage of the fact that very faint stars are usually much further away
(though not Invariably so) than bright ones. Thus it comes about that if photograpiis of a bright star are
made with the same telescope at two dates six months apart, and exact measurements of the distance of
the bright star from its faint neighbors are made on both photographs, a slight displacement of the bright
star will often be found to have occurred. The angular measure of displacement gives the vertical angle or
the Isosceles triangle of which the base line Is the diameter of the earth's orbit, and from these data the star'a
distance is easily found. Seen from the nearest star, a Centaurl, the radius of the earth's orbit, 93.000,000
miles, subtends an angle of only 0.75 seconds. This Is called the star's parallax.
Altogether less than 1,000 star distances have been measured. It is a slow., tedious work, often dis-
appointing, a -Centaurl. the nearest star, except the sun. Is at 25.000,000.000,000 milea, while the sun
Is at only 93,000,000 miles. When a measurement Indicates that a star is at 2,000,000,000,000,000 milea
Br more (narallax O.Ol seconds) It Is the same as saying that the star is too far away for its distance to b«
determined. It may be ten or a hundred times as far as the measurements Indicate. This is about the
average distance of the faintest Stars visible to the naked eyed. The great majority ol telescopic Stars 1161
beyond this distance.

From June 16 to August 1 both the upper and lower transits talte place during daylight. The azimutb
at the time of greatest Eastern or Western elongation can be easily computed from the formula:
sin p
sin A =
cos I
Where .4 denotes the azimuth, p the polar distance, and I the latitude of the place.
DATE OF GREATEST ELONGATION.
To find the time of greatest Eastern or Western elongation, let H denote the hour angle, and I and p 88
before, than we shall have
cos H = tan p tan I.
And the hour angle In mean time is
i7m = i/°X 0664846.
This quantity, "m, added to or substracted from the time of transit given above, according to the elonga-
tion required, will give the mean time of the (-reaiest elongation at any place whose north latitude is I.

The determination of stellar parallax is one of the most diffloult and refined problems In practical or
Observational astronomy. It is to find the angle which the semi-diameter of the earth's orbit subtends at
the star — an angle always very small, as seen from the above table, and which cannot be measured directly
but by varloua processes too complicated to be explained here.

TH£ ZOOBAC.
The sun'a apparent yearly path among the staia is known as the ecliptic. The zone 16" wide, 8° on
each side of the echptic, is Ijnown as the zodiac. Beginning at the point on the ecliptic which marlts the
position of the aun at the vernal equinox, and thence proceeding eastward, the zodiac is divided into twelve
Bigna ot 30° each, which are as follows:

These signs are named from the twelve constellations of the zodiac; with which the signs coincided in
the time of the astronomer Hipparchus, about two thousand years ago. Owing to the precession of the equi-
noxes, that is to say, to the retrograde motion ot tlie equinoxes along the ecliptic, eacli sign in the zodiac has,
In the course of two thousand years, moved backward 30° into the constellation west of it; so that the sign
Aries is now in the constellation Pisces, and so on
The zodiac, with its constellations and with the symbols that represent them, is of the greatest antiquity;
and is traceable in part, at least, to an Esyptian origin. The zodiac may be called the great highway of the
heavens, its width being such as to include all the journeyings of the sun. moon, and seven major planets. •

The most shaken countries of the world are Italy, Japan, Greece, South America (the Pacific Coast) ,
Java, Sicily, and Asia Minor. The lands most free from these convulsions are Africa, Australia, Russia,
Siberia. Scandinavia, and Canada. As a rule, where earthquakes are mo.st frequent they are most severe.
But to this general statement there are exceptions — Indian shocks, though less numerous, being often very
disastrous Loss of life in many cases depends, however, on density of population rather than on the
Intensity of the earth movement.
THE FRENCH R iVOLUTJONARV ERA.
IM Septenioer, 1793. the convention decreed that the common era should be abolished in all civil affairs,
and t.hat the new Fi-ench era should begin on September 22, 1792, the day of the true autumnal equinox,
and that each succeeding year should begin at the midnight of the day on which the true autumnal equinox
Jails. The year was divided into twelve months of thirty days each. In ordinary years there were five
extra davs. from the 17th to the 21st of our September, and at the end of every fourth year was a sixth
comprmentary dav. This reckoning was trat used on November 22, 1793, and was continued until Decem-
ber 31. 1805, when it was discontinued, and the Gregorian calendar, used throughout the rest of Europe,
was resumed. The following were the dates for the year 1804, the last complete year of this style ol
reckoning:
- ■ ""■ ---.__- Germinal (Budding), Mar. 22 to Apr. 21.
Floreal (Flowery), Apr 21 to May 20.

Messidor (Harvest), June 20 to July 19.
Thermidor (Hot), July 20 to Aug 19.
Fructldor (Fruit), Aug. 19 to Sept 18.
The months were divided into three decades of ten days each, but to make up the 365 five were added
at the end of September: Primidl, dedicated to Virtue; Duodi, to Genius; Tridi, to Labor; Quartidl, to
Opinion, and Quintldi, to Rewards. To Leap Year, called Olympic, a sixth day, September 22 or 23,
Sextidi, "the day of the Revolution," was added.
To each tenth day, thirty-six in all, were assigned thirty-six "Fetes Decadalres," decreed by tho
National Convention on the eighteenth Prairial, in honor of the Supreme Being and Nature, the Human
Race, the French People, Benefactors of Humanity, Martyrs for Libert.v, Liberty and Equality, the Re-

piter took place.
THOTH, the first month of the ancient Egyptian year, commenced at the time the Sun came to the
southern tropic, December 21, when the days began to lengthen, and a new year appeared to commence.
The Egyptian year had 12 months, each containing 30 days, and 5 epagomena, or voids, making in all 365
days. The months were named after the signs containing the Sun, and each planet was sa.id to rule the
Sun as he passed through the signs or houses, of which each planet had two — the Sun and Moon having
but one each. '

NOISE OF THUNDER AND ARTILLERY.
The greatest distance at which thunder can be heard is 14 to 18 miles, and 45 seconds was the dura-
tion of the longe3t roll of thunder accurately noted. Thunder is not generally heard at a greater distance
Chan 9 miles. On one occasion the lightning struck the church steeple of Lostwithiel, in Cornwall, with
a roar, and destroyed it, but Smeaton, the celebrated engineer, who was 30 miles distant, did not hear the
sound. Muschenbrock relates that it sometimes thunders loudly at the Hague without any noise being
iteard in Leyden, 12 miles distant.
► The noise of the artillery at Waterloo was heard at Crell, 115 miles from the scene of battle; and when
the English troops landed In Egypt the firing was distinctly heard 130 miles oft. On the fourth of December,
1832, the cannon of Antwerp were heard in Erzegebirge mountains, 370 miles distant. The report of a
cannon travels far because it communicates a vibration to the soil.
In the recent war, the shell and bomb explosions, and the noise of the 15-inch guns of the Germans
Tfifl the Allies, in France and Belgium, were heard in the eastern part of England, at distances up to 150 miles.

CLASSIFICATION OF ROCKS AND PRINCIPAL DIVISIONS OF CEOLOCiC TIIVSS
(Prepared by the U. S. Geological Survey.)
THE roclts composing the earth's crust are grouped by geologists into three great classes, igneous,
eedimentary, and metamorphic. The igneous rocks liave solidified from a molten state. Those that have
BOlidifled beneath the surface are linown as Intrasive roclcs. Those that have flowed out over the surfaca
are known as effusive rocks, extrusive rocks, or lavas. The term volcanic rock includes not only lavas but
bombs, pumice, tuB, volcanic ash and other Jragmental materials thrown out from volcanoes. Sedimentar.v
rocks are formed by the accum^ilatiou of sediment in water (aqueous deposits or eolian deposits). The
sediment may consist of rock fragments or particles of various sizes (conglomerate sandstone, shale) ; of
the remains or products of animals or plants (certain Umestones and coal) ; of the product of chemical actiou
or of evaporation (salt, gypsum, etc ) ; or of mixtures of these materials. A characteristic feature of sedi-
mentary deposits is a layered structure known as bedding or stratification. Metamorphic rocks are deriva-
tives of igneous or sedimentary rocks produced through mechanical or chemical activities in the earth's
crust. The unaltered sedimentary rocks .ire commonly stratified, and it is from their order of succession
and that of their contained fossils that the fundamental data of historical geology have been deduced.

UNCHANCEA8ILITY OF CLIMATES.
(By Prof. J. W. Gregory, Univ. ol Glasgow.)
The first striking fact In the geological hl,story of climate is that the present climate ol the world
has been maintained since the date of the earliest, unaltered, sedimentary deposits. The oldest sandetoi rjs
Ol the Scotch Highlands and the English Longmynds show that in pre-Cambrian times the winds had \.',ie.
same strength, the raindrops were of the same size, and they fell with the s.ame force as at the presoi't dsA".
The evidence of paleontology proves that the climatic zones ol the earth have been concentric \vith the
poles as far back as its records go; the salts deposited by the evaporation of early Paleozoic lagoons shov/
that the oldest seas contain(?d the same materials In solution as the modern oceans; and glaciatlons have
recurred in Arctic and, under special geographical conditions, also in temperate regions at various periodc-
throughout geological time The mean climate of the world has been fairly constant, though there have
been local variations which have led to the development of glaciers in regions now ice free, at various points
in the geological scale. That there has been no progressive chilling of the earth since the date ol thn oldest
known sedimentary rocks is shown by their lithological characters and by the recurrence of glacial deposits,
some of which were laid down at low levels at intervals throughout geological tim«.
The range ol climatic variations in the past has been often greatly exaggerated, thereby leading to the
apparent necessity lor revolutionary changes in former meteorological conditions. But the climatic changes
we have to explain appear to have been either local In area or moderate in degree. The opinion that there
have been fundamental changes in climate is based mainly upon the evidence of former glaciatlons and on
the supposed existence of tropical climates In the Arctic regions. That tropical or subtropical conditions
once prevailed In the Arctic Circle is affirmed on the reported occurrence there of fossil coral reefs and tropical
vegetation.
The Arctic Ocean has been described as having been a coral aea In Silurian and Carboniferous times.
This view led to Blandet's suggestion — well known by its advocacy by Sir John Murray — that In Paleozoic
times light and heat were equally distributed throughout the world; and also to the theories that the heat
from the sun Is diminishing o\'ring to the smaller size of the sun, as suggested by Helmholtz, or to its lower
Intensity, as advocated by Dubois. But the fossil faunas of the Arctic seas all show the dwarfing effect
of unfavorable conditions when compared to the contemporary faunas in the seas to the south. Corals
ol reef-building genera have lived In the Arctic regions; but I have seen no Arctic specimens larp-er t'livj.
nodules which could have grown in a cool sea. The asserted existence ol Arctic coral reefs In Sllurlop tlnc-«
was based on a collection made in Grlnnell Land, which is now in the British Museum. But the specimens
ahow nothing more than the growth ol small nodular corals, such as may have grown in a temperate sea'.

EFFECT OF CLIAAATE ON LIFE.
(By Joel A. Allen In the Radical Review.)
Much has been written respecting the influence of climate on man, and many speculations have been
indulged in in relation to the part the conditions of life have taken in bringing about the diversity at presens
existing among the dlSerent races. A striking parallelism Is often observable between the leading featuroj
of geographical variation among animals and the physical differences that obtain among nations or races
of men Inhabiting the same areas and subjected to the same Influences. While civilized man Is, In a measui'o,
less the subject of such Influences than the lov/er animals, he is not wholly above them. Certain regloi.s
more favor both physical and intellectual development than others, and these prove to be, as would be Ca-
pected, the milder temperate portions of the globe, where the struggle for a mere vegetative existence is
reduced to a minimum. The Influence of different climatic conditions upon members of the same national-
ity find exemplification In different parts of our own country, and are so obvious as to be the subject of fre-
quent observation and comment. The same original stock is found to gradually develop certain peculiar
physical and mentul characteristics when placed under diverse conditions of climate, certain localities mor.j
favoring intellectual growth and activity than others, just as certain regions are characterized by the fre-
quent occurrence of particular diseases which in other regions are exceptional. AVhile humidity and a hlgn
temperature, when combined, are found to be enervating and deteriorating, a clear, dry atmosphere favors
vigor of both mind and body.
There is a vast amount of unquestionable proof of the direct and constant action of climate and other
conditions of life upon animals, and that such geographical variations as the thicker and softer fur of mam-
mals Inhabiting cold regions, smaller size and brighter colors at the southward, etc., do not require the actioi
of natural selection, in its strict and proper sense, for their explanation. It Is well known, for Instance, that
a flock of flne-wooled sheep when taken to a hot climate rapidly acquire a coarser and coarser fleece, till.
In a few generations. It nearly loses Its character of proper wool, and becomes simply hair; that the change
affects simultaneously the whole flock, and is not brought about by one or two individuals acquiring a coarser
fleece and through their descendants modifying the character of the herd. Furthermore, In the case of
sheep, it is well known that certain countries are very favorable to the production of a fine fleece, and that
flne-wooled breeds, even by man's aid, cannot be perpetuated In other regions. Again, It is a fact of com-
mon observation th.at In birds and mammals colors become more or less faded toward the moulting season
simply by the direct action of the elements, the tints of the fresh and the long-worn plumage or pelage being
more or less strikingly different In the same individuals, and that this contrast at different seasons Is mor-3
marked in arid than In moist regions, through the greater bleaching effect of a dry heated atmosphere and
the more Intense dazzling sunlight of regions that are not only cloudless but lack the protection afforded
by abundant vegetation.

Tld.il Shore Line, Unit Measure 3 Statute Miles.— The figures under this heading give the length la
statute miles of the shore line on tidal watere to points where .such waters narrow to a width of 3 st.itute miles.
Tidal Shore Line, Unit Measure 1 Statute Mile, — The figuies under this heading give the length in statute
miles of the shore line on tidal waters to polntE where such waters narrow to a width of one statute mile, and
include the shore line of those bodies of tidal waters mo'-e thai 1 mile wide which lie close to the main watere,
even though Uie entrance width is less than the ualt measure.
Alaska, the Philippine Islands, and United States Samoan Islands were not measured with a unit meas-
ure of 1 statute mile, as large areas are unsurveyed, and such a measurement would be very approximate^

A gradual rise indicates settled weather.
A rise with dry air and cold increasing in Summer indicates wind
from the northward; and if rain has fallen, better weather may be
A rise with moist air and a low temperature. Indicates wind and
rain from the northward.
A rise with southerly winds Indicates fine weather,
A STEADY DAKOMETEB
with dry air and seasonable temperature indicates a continuance
of very fine weather.
A FALLING BAROMETER.
A rapid fall indicates stormy weather.
A rapid fall with westerly wind indicates Stormy weather from
the northward. . ^ _ ^ ^ „
A fall with a northerly wind indicates storm, with rain and hall
In Summer, and snow in Winter.
A fall with increased moisture in the air, and heat Increasing,
indicates wind and rain from the southward.
A fall with dry air and cold Increasing in Winter Indicates snow.
A fall after very calm and warm weather Indicates rain wltb
SG113>IIV wG3.th©r
The barometer rises for northerly winds, including from northwest
by north to the eastward for dry, or less wet weather, for less wind,
or for more than one of these changes, except on a few occasions,
when rain, hall or snow comes from the northward with strong wind.
The barometer falls for southerly wind, including from southeast
by south to the westward, for wet weather, for stronger wind or for
more than one of these changes, except on a few occasions, when

A gray, lowerine sunset, or one where the sky is green or yellowish-green, indicates rain. A red siin-
rlse, with clouds lowering later in the morning, also indicates rain. A halo occurring after fine weather in-
dicates a storm. A corona growing smaller indicates rain; growing larger, fair weather. A morning
rainbow is regarded as a sign of lain; an evening rainbow of fair weather. A deep-blue color of the sky,
even when seen through clouds, indicates fair weather; a growing whiteness, an approaching storm, iiogs
Indicate settled weather. A morning fog usually breaks away before noon. Unusual clearness ^ the
atmosphere, unusual brightness or twinkling of the stars, indicate rain. The first irost and last frost are
usually preceded by a temperature very much above the mean.

The nearer the time of the Moon's chant'ie, first quarter, full, and last quarter is to midnight, the fairer
will the weather be during the seven days following.
The space of this calculation occupies from 10 at night till 2 next morning.
The nearer to midday, or noon, these phases of the moon happen, the more foul or wet the weather
may be expected during the seven following days.
The space of this calculation occupies from 10 in tlie forenoon till 2 in the afternoon. These observa-
tions refer principally to Summer, though they affect the Spring and Autumn nearly the same.
The Moon's change, first quarter, full, and last quarter happening during six of the afternoon hours,
1. e., from 4 to 10, may be followed by fair weather; but this is most dependent on the wind, s,s noted
In the table.
Though the weather, from a variety of irregular causes, is more uncertain in the latter part of the
Autumn, the whole of Winter, and the beginning of Spring, yet in the main the above observations will
apply to those periods also.
A gray, lowering sunset, or one where the sky Is green or yellowish-green, indicates rain. A red sun-
rise, with clouds lowering later in the morning, also indicates rain. A halo occurring after fine weather
Indicates a storm. A corona growing s.mallor indicates rain; groining larger, fair weather. A morning
rainbow is regarded as a sign of rain; an evening rainbow of fair weather. A deep-blue color of the sky,
even when seen through clouds. Indicates fair weather, a growing wliiteness, an approaching .storm. Fogs
Indicate settled weather. A morning fog usually breaks away before noon. Uiiusual clearness of the
atmosphere, unusual brightness or twinkling of the stars, indicate rain. The first I'rost and last frost are
usually preceded by a temperature very much above the mean.
The approach of rain, which is always preceded by a sensation of dampness, i educes the amount of
oxygen in the air. This insufficient supply of oxygen has a peculiar effect upon many animals which amounts
to a relaxation of their nervous system."? (erroneously attributed to superetltion) and m;!.y be taken as nature's
warning of approaching rain. Sheep bleat and become inactive and unwilling to go to nasture; pigs squeal
as if in pain; frogs croak loudly and hoarsely; ducks and geese become unusually noiiy, horses neigh; cattle
low; owls screech, and so on through the animal kingdom. Mankind is also aifectod; housewives become
nervous; children fretful; and men "cross "

Physical Properties of the Atmosphere^. 69
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE ATMOSPHERE.
(By the National Advisory Committee on Aeronautic^; Prepared by W. R. Blair.)
Approximately 78 per cent, by volume, of the air near the earl's surface is nitrogen and 21 per cent,
oxygen. Another diatomic gas, hydrogen, is found uniformly distributed, but in very small quantity. The
monatomic gases, argon, neon, helium, krypton, and xenon, are present, their volumes being in the order
given. Other gases and vapora of more complex molecular structure and less uniformly distributed are water
vapor, carbon dioxide, ammonia, and sulphur dioxide. The last three gases named are hygroscopic and seem
to exist in the atmosphere In association with more or less water, depending on the amount of atmospheric
moisture available. Other gases, as well as dust of both terrestrial and meteoric origin, are present in vary-
ing quantities, depending on the time or location in which observations are made. In order of their atomic
weights the first eight of the gases mentioned are hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, neon, argon, krypton,
and xenon. When molecular weights are considered, neon is third in the list, and nitrogen and oxygen
fourlih and fifth, respectively. It is probable that these gases are sorted by gravity and that, as the distance
from the earth's surface increases, the proportion of the lighter gases increases until at some heiglit, 150
kilometres or more above sea level, the chief constituent of the air is hydrogen. Convective mixing of the
air interferes with this sorting to some extent, especially in the lower 10 kilometres of the atmosphere.
Recent observations and experiments indicate that the hygroscopic gases, ratlier than dust or ions,
furnish the nuclei upon wliich the water vapor of the air condenses, forming liaze and fog or cloud. Strata
of air that are hazy are found to be rich in these hygroscopic nuclei and usually a disturbance that elevates
such strata either in whole or in part results in cloud formation. It may happen that the temperature
of the air in the haze layer is lowered without accompanying change of level, with the result that a stratum
of cloud replaces the stratum of haze. When air of the haze layer is forced up in places by a relatively strong
vertical component in its motion, the resulting type of cloud formation is cumulus; when It is cooled, either
by being elevated as a whole or by other means, the type of cloud resulting is stratus. The formation of
cumulus clouds therefore accompanies turbulent atmospheric conditions, and is in turn an Indication of these
conditions. Atmospheric pi'sssures are most familiarly measured in inches or millimetres of tlie height of a
column that will just balance the static pressure of the air at a given place. Thus, the standard pressure
commonly designated one atmosphere is a column of mercury 760 millimetres high having a temperature
of 0° C. under gravity at sea level and latitude 45°. The pressure of the atmosphere and local differences
in these pressures are forces capable of causing flow and motions of the air.
In passing through the atmosphere to the earth's surface the sun's radiant energy is considerably
dlmir.lshed by reflection from the upper surfaces of clouds and from other boundary surfaces that may exist
between strata of different densities or constiration. There is some diminution of this energy because of
direct absorption by the gases of the atmospiiere, but the amount thus absorbed is relatively small. In
general, the sun's raya are somewhat refracted by the atmosphere, and the amount of heat reaching the earth
by means of them is thus somewhat increased. Locally, the amount of heat received from the sun by the
earth's surface may be increased considerably by reflection from the sides of clouds, and it may, of course,
be diminished in the cloud's shadow. Insolation, the heating effect of "the sun's rays measured at the earth's
surface. Is considerably greater in the spaces between cumulus clouds, for example, than under "normal"
conditions, when there are no clouds present. The air itself when dry absorbs but little of the sun's energy,
and is therefore but little heated by the direct rays of the sun. The earth's surface reflects more or less
of the solar radiation reaching it, depending on the nature of the material forming it. Snow, ice, water,
and white sand, clay, or rock surfaces reflect more of the sun's radiation than do black, brown, or vegetation-
covered fidds. The color of the surface is determined by the wave lengths it reflects most — a white surface
reflects all wave lengths equally, while a black surface absorbs all wave lengths and reflects none. Surfaces
that are good absorbers are good radiators, i. e., lose their heat readily by radiation. Surfaces that absorb
less readUy "hold their heat," i. e., are not good radiators. There is, however, legs difference in- the rapidity
with which these different surfaces communicate their heat to the air by conduction.
Altogether, cloudiness and other factors considered, less than half the radiant heat from the
sun entering the outer portion of the earth's atmosphere succeeds in penetrating to the lithosphere, where
it becomes effective in heating the earth's surface and the air near it. Notwithstanding this absorption,
however, the atmosphere as a whole is but little heated- by- the direct rays of the sun Tlie surface tempera-
ture in a field of black earth is somewhat higher at 4 p. m. of a clear day than is that of a green pasture
adjoining it and decidedly higher than that of a field of white wheat or wheat stubble in the same vicinity.
At 4 a. m. these relations of temperature are reversed. Similar but more marked differences of
temperature are found between land and water surfaces. The earth's surface heats or cools the air in
contact with it largely by conduction. It follows that air temperatures at lowest levels will vary in the
same sense as do the temperatures of the eartli's surface, but not necessarily to the same extent. Con-
vection processes in the air will then distribute the heat.
The proportions of the constituent gnes in the atmosphere at any point exert some influence on the
air temperature at that point. If a given level in tlie atmosphere is considered, the inflow through it of energy
from tiie sun and the outflow through it of energy from the earth's surface and from that part of the a.mos-
phere below the level in question are, in the long run, equal This energy is either transmitted through
the atmosphere without heating it or is, to a greater or les." degree, passed along by the process of ab.sorp-
tion snd re-radiation. In the latter case the air is heated to such a temperature tliat equilibrium is estab-
lished between the rate^ of absorption and re-radiation. This temperature is different for the different
atmospheric constituents, beini; proportional to their abilities to absorb solar and terrestrial radiation.
The density of air al constant pressure depends largely on its temperature, but to an extent also on itsj
constitution. In the lower strata of the -tmo.soliere moisture is tlie only constituent whose quantity varies
suflflciently to affect air density appreciably- It has been shown above not only thai air temperature varies
from point to point in the atmosphere but that the moisture content also varies. Usually temperature and
moisture content affect air density in the same sense, i. e., an increase in either makes the density less. Near
the earth's surface, where the moisture content and the temperature of the air are rather directly controlled
by the nature of that surface, ma,xima and minima of air density may be found witiiin a few metres, or even
a few centimetres, distance. Further away from the earth's surface these maxima and minima of density
are further apart. Whatever the dimensions of the air mass considered, therefore, it is likeiy to contain
one or more comoiete circulatory systems in process of adjusting the differences in density of its parts; and
it itself is likely to be moving in conformity with the need for similar adjustment on a larger scale. In the
process of adjusting these differences in atmospheric density still another factor in the distribution of tem-
perature is introduced. Air masses, with their heat content, are carried bodily, from place to place without
change of level and consequently with comparatively little change in temperature, volume and pressure.
Air masses also change level, which entails change of pressure and volume. Work Ls done when the volume
of a given mass of air is clianged. When its volume increases, the energy for this work must be fiunished
either by outside sources or by the gas itself, when the volume decreases, energy is given to outside objects
or to the gas itself. When the energy is all supplied by or to the air mass itself, the temperature cliange
in the air mass is 1° C per 100 metres. It is clear that the total heat content of the atmosphere cannofi
be changed by these motions ol the air.

The Metric System.
©Ije J^ettic System,
(Prepared for the U. S. Government by the' Bureau of Standards. Department of Commerce.)
UNITS OF WEIGHT AND MEASURE.
THE fundamental unit of the metric system is the meter, the unifjot length. From thia the units of
capacity (liter) and of weight (gram) were derived. All other units are the decimal subdivlsiona or multiples
of these. These three units are simply related, e. g., for all practical purposes 1 cubic decimeter equals
1 liter and 1 liter of weight weiglis 1 kilogram. The metric tables are formed bycombining the words "meter,",
"gram," and "liter" with the six numerical prefixes, as in the following tables:

"liter" for capacity.
All lengths, areas, and cubic measures in the following tables are derived from the international meter,
the legal equivalent being 1 meter = 39.37 inches (law of July 28, 1866). In 1893 the United States Office
of Standard Weights and Measures was authorized to derive the yard from the meter, using for the purpose
the relation legalized in 1866, 1 yard = 3600-3937 meter. The customary weights are likewise referred to
the kilogram (Executive order approved April 5, 1893) This action fixed the value-;, inasmuch as the refer-
ence standards are as perfect and unalterable as it is possible for human skill to make them at this .time.
All capacities are based on the equivalent 1 liter equals 1.000027 cubic decimeters. The decimeter is equal
to 3.937 inches in accordance with the legal equivalent of the meter given above The gallon referred to
In the tables is the United States gallon of 231 cubic Inches. The bushel is the United States bushel of
2,150.42 cubic inches. These units must not be confused with the British units of the same name, which
differ from those used in the United States. The British gallon is approximately 20 per cent larger and
the British bushel 3 per cent larger than the corresponding units used in this country. The customary
weights derived from the international kilogram are based on the value 1 avoirdupois pound = 453.5924277
grams. The value of the troy pound is based upon the relation just mentioned and also the equivalent
6760-7000 avoirdupois pounds equals 1 troy pound.

to 0.4535924277 kilogram.
A gram is a unit of mass equivalent to one-thous-
andth of the mass of the international prototype
kilogram at the International Bureau of Weights
and Measures.
A troy pound is a unit of mass equivalent to
5760-7000 of that of the avoirdupois pound.
Multiples and SubmuUiples
1 metric ton = 1000 kilograms.
1 hectogram = 100 grams = 0.1 kilogram.
1 dekagram = 10 grams = 0.01 kilogram.
1 decigram = 0.1 gram.
1 centigram = 0.01 gram.
1 milligram = 0.001 gram.
1 avoirdupois ounce =1-16 avoirdupois pound.
1 avoirdupois drarn = 1-256 avoirdupois pound =
1-16 avoirdupois ounce.
1 gram =1-700 avoirdupois pound = 10-4375
avoirdupois ounce = 1-5760 troy pound.
1 apothecaries' pound = 1 troy pound = 5760-7000
avoirdupois- pound.
1 apothecaries' or troy ounce =1-12 troy pound
= 480-7000 avoirdupois pound = 480 grains.
1 apothecaries' dram = 1-96 apothecaries' pound =
1-8 apothecaries' ounce = 60 grains.
1 pennyweight = 1-20 troy ounce = 24 grains.
1 apothecaries' scruple =1-3 apothecaries' dram
= 20 grains.
1 metric carat = 200 milligrams = 0.2 gram.
1 short hundredweight = 100 avoirdupois pounds.
1 long hundredweight = 112 avoirdupois pounds.
1 short ton = 2000 avoirdupois pounds.
1 long ton = 2240 avoirdupois pounds.
STANDARDS FOR MEASUREMENT.
Units of measurement should be distinguished from standards for measurement, particularly In
the case of length and capacity. Units of length are fixed distances, independent of any other considera-
tion, while length standards are affected by the expansion and contraction with changes of temperature of
the material of which the standard may be composed. It Is therefore necessary to fix upon some tempera-
ture at which the distance between the defining lines or end surfaces of the standards shall be equal to the
unit. The same Is true of standards of capacity, which at some definite temperature contain a given number
of units of volume. The temperature at which metric length standards are customarily made correct is
0° C, although 20° C Is also used for steel tapes and some other standards Intended for use at room or aver-
age outdoor temperatures. The temperature at which standards of length of the customary system are
made correct is 62° F.
For measurements of high precision it is also necessary to specify the manner of support of the standards,
whether at certain points only or throughout their entire length, and In the case of tapes it Is also necessary
to give the tension applied to the tape when in use. In the United States the capacity standards, both
metric and customary, are made to hold the specified volumes at 4° C. Standards of capacity are usually
made of brass so the capacity at any other temperature may be computed by the use of the coefficient of
cubical expansion, usually assumed to be 000054 per degree centigrade. In the purchase and sale of liquids
a more Unportant consideration than the temperature of the measures Is the temperature of the liquid when
measured, for the reason that the large coefficient of expansion of many liquids makes the actual mass of
a given volume delivered vary considerably with temperature. For this reason, the custom of buying and
selling liquids by weight Instead of by measure is recommended. It is further recommended that, when
liquids are sold by volume, 68° F or 20° C be adopted as the standard temperature of the liquid.
While the temperature of a weight does not affect Its mass, It Is nevertheless Important that when two
weights are compared in a.lr they both be at the same temperature as the air. If there is a difference be-
tween the temperature of the air and the weights, convection currents will be set up and the readings oS the
balance will be thereby affected. Also, since weights are buoyed up by the surrounding air by amounts
dependent upon their volumes. It is desirable that the weights of any set be of the same material. If two
weights of the same density balance In air of a certain density they will balance in vacuo or In air of a differ-
ent density. Brass Is the material most widely used for .standard weights, although platinum is quite com-
monly used for weights of 1 gram or less. In the absence of any knowledge as to the actual density of weights,
those made of brass are assumed to have a density of 8.4 at o° C, while those of platinum are assumed to
have a density of 21.5 at o° C.
SPELLING AND ABBREVIATION OF UNITS.
The spelling of the names of units adopted by the National Bureau of Standards Is that given in the
list below. The spelling of the metric units is In accordance with that given In the law of July 28, 1866,
legalizing the metric system in the United States. Following the names of each unit in the lisi below la
given the abbreviation which the Bureau has adopted. Attention is called to the following ,j)rinclples:
1. The period Is omitted after the abbreviations of the metric units, while it is used after those of the cus-
tomary system. 2. The exponents, "2" and ■3," are used to signify area and volume, respectively, in
the case of the metric units instead of the longer prefixes "sq." or "cu." In conformity with this principle
the abbreviation for cubic centimeter is "cm3," instead of " c. c " or "c. cm." The term "cubic centimeter"
as used In chemical work Is, in fact, a misnomer, since the unit actually used Is the "milliliter," which has a
slightly larger volume. 3. The use of the same abbreviation for both singular and plural is recommended.
This practice is alread.v established In expressin'? metric units and is in accordance with the spirit and chiel
purpose of abbreviations. 4. It !s also suggested that, unless all the text is printed in capital letters, only
small letters be used for abbreviations except in the case of A. for acre, where the use of the capital letteB
is general.

CARE OF THE EYES O^ SCHOOL. CHSLDREN.
By Wm. Merle Carhaht, M. D., Bureau oi Child Hygiene, N. Y. City Dept. oi Healtb.
One ol the most important things In a child's school ilfe !s the comfortable and ei&lclent use of liis
eyes for his work in school. Nothing handicaps a cliild's progress in education more than poor eye.sif:i.i.
It Is often a waste of time to send a child to school when he is unable to keep up with his class because of
defective vision. Quite a large proportion of the children who are left back in school and forced to go over
a term a second time are those whose sight could easily be corrected with proper glasses. There are several
varieties of defective eyesight which are found among school children.
The most common variety, is excessive farsightedness or hypermetropia as It is technically called.
In this variety, the child's eyes are natairally focusjd lor diritant vision, and in order to see at all clearly any
length of time for reading and writing, certain little muscles within the eyeball must change the optical focus
of the eyes and bring It nearer. This intensive and iavolun.'-ary effort to accommodate the siijht for near
means a constant eyestrain if the farsightedness or hyperrueciopia i^ at all great in amount. A small amount
of farsightedness seems natural to most children, and i^ aa.bjly borne under ordinary circumstances, without
causing any sensations of eyestrain. Unfortunately, scho->l 'ife demands the use of the eyes for near work
for quite a number of hours each day, and therefore many ciiiidren even with moderate farsiglitedness require
glasses in school to help the little muscles of acoommodafioa within the eyeball to hold the optical focus
near enough for clear vision without eyesti-aln while reading \a6 writing in school.
Another variety of defective eyesight, fortunately less cojiimon here in America, Is nearsightedness or
myooia. The myopic child does not see clearly for di.stanoe, but can see clearly for near by holding his
book or paner close to his eyes. The nearsighted eye is, however, always a weak eye aud often a diseased
eye, and hence using such an eye excessively for school work tends to cause the nearsightedness to become
worse and worse. By the timely use of glasses, this tenderxy to what is called progressive myopia, can be
usually checked or avoided. In addition, the use of proper glasses restores the distant vision in many
cases to approximately normal sight.
A third variety of defective eyesight Is what Is called as-tigmatlsm. Astigmatism is an irregular shape
of the eyeball, so that the eyeball is flattened in one direction more than in other directions. Tlie most
frequent form of astigmatism found in chUdreu is that in which the front part of the eyeball Is flattened
from above downwards, but the eyeball can be distorted from its normally spherical shape at almost any
conceivable axis. This distortion of the shape of the eyeb.aM causes the rays of light to be diffused over a
considerable area of the back part of the interior of the eyeball, which we call the retina. Instead of being
brought to a sliarp central focus, as is required for clear vi."5ion. In order to prevent the blurred vision caused
by astigmatism, the little muse es of accommodation must contract constantly and effect a coiTection of
this astigmatic distortion of the eyeba 1. Since the accommodative effort to obtain clear vision is exerted
in one direction only, rather than sj-mmetricaliy, as in liypermetropia, astigmatism is very apt to bring
on headaches, red lids and other severe symptoms of eyestrain to a gre.iter degree than occurs in simple
farsightedness without astigmatism. In most instani-cs, astigmatism is found to occur In eyes which are
also either farsighted or nearsighted, but it can occur in eyes which are otlierwise normal. Continued
use of the eyes for a long time at close work is harmful to a child even with perfect eyes.

ELECTRICAL UNITS AND THEIR POPULAR DEFINITIOf^S.
The watt is the unit expressing electrical energy as horsepower (hp) represents energy In mechanics.
It is the sum of the volt (pressure) times ampere (rate of flow). Thus 2 volts times 2 amperes would give
you 4 watts. Electrical energy is sold at so mucli per watt hour or more generally at a given amount per
kilowatt hour — wliich means 1,000 watt hours. This may represent 1 watt for 1,000 hours or say 1,000
watts for 1 hour, 746 watts are equal to one horsepower or inversely 1 kilowatt (kw) is equal to 1 M horse-
power.
The horsepower represents the energy required to lift a weight of 33,000 pounds — 1 foot in 1 minute or
550 lbs. 1 foot in 1 second.
The ohm is the unit of electrical resistance and I'epresents the physical property of a material which
offers a resistance to the flow of electricity permitting just 1 ampere to flow at 1 volt of pressure. For
example, 1,000 feet of copper wire of 10 gauge has just 1 ohm of resistance and allows the flow of 1 ampere
Rt 1 volt.
FOREIGN MONEY UNITS Or VALUE.
English Money: 4 farthings — 1 penny (d); 12 pence — 1 shilling (s); 20 shillings — 1 pound (£). 21
Shillings — one guinea; 5 shillings — one crown. French Money: 100 centimes — 1 franc. German Money:
100 pfennig — 1 mark. Russian Money: 100 copecks — 1 ruble. Austro-Hungarian Money: 100

KNOTS AND MILES.
Ted Statute Mile Is 5,280 feet. The British Admiralty Knot or Nautical Mile is 6,080 feet.
The Statute Knot is 6,082.66 feet, and la generaHy considered the standard. The number of feet In a
statute knot is arrived at thus: The circumference of the earth la divided into 360 degrees, each degree
containing 60 knots or (360x60), 21,600 knots to the circumference. 21,600 divided into 131,385,45fr—
the number of feet in the earth's circumference — gives 6,082.66 feet — the length of a standard mile.

The British Imperial bushel is about 3 per cent, larger then the U. S. standard bushel. The former
contains 2219 36 cubic inches, and is defined as the volume of 80 pounds of pure water, at 62° F, when
weighed against brass weights in air at a pressure of 30 inches of mercury; while the latter measure con-
tains 2150 42 cubic inches. The English ton is 2,240 lbs avoirdupois, the same as the long ton, or shipping
ton, of the United States. The English hundredweight is 112 lbs. avoirdupois, the same as the long hundred-
weight of the United States. The English stone equals one-eighth hundredweight of 112 lbs., or 14 lbs.

FIRST SHSP TO CROSS OCEAN BY STEAM.
The centennial anniversary of transatlantic steam navigation was celebrated at Savannah, Ga., May
22, the date when the Savannah, the first ship to cross the Atlantic propelled by steam and the forerunner
of the great ocean greyhounds of to-day, sailed fiom that port for Liverpool on her historic voyage. The
Savannah was built at New York City and was launched on August 22, 1818. She vfas mastered by the
two Rogerses — Caot. Moses Rogers being the commander and Capt. Stevens Rogers the sailing master.
The vessel left New York City March 28, 1819, and arrived in this city for the first time on April 12, 1819.
May 22, 1819, the trip across the A.tlantlc was startedjrom this port. Everything went well until June
17, when the vessel was stopped by the British cutter Kite, whose commander thought the Savannah was
on fire and stopped her to assist in fighting the flames. The vessel was stopped outside Liverpool by an
English sloop ol w.or, whose commander wished the American vessel to display the British colors above
Its own. Capt. Rogers refusad and threatened the British ofQcer with a boiling water bath If he did not
leave the ship. He immediately left.
The Savannah docked in Liverpool on June 20, after completing the voyage In twenty-nine days and
'eleven hours. Tao engines were used only eighteen days on the trip. The entrance of the Savannah under
full steam caused excitemertt in Liverpool and while the vessel remained in port it was the centre of interest.
The Savannah then proceeded to Stockholm and September 18 arrived at St. Petersburg (
