A Scientific 'Analysis ot the Chem ical Compound. ot Which n.Hnmsn Body la Made—llan When Reduced to Water, Powders and Gas. You can go to a drug store and buy all ths materials to make a man. It the reader does not care to Incur the expense of purchasing the materials with which to make a man it may at least be Interesting to study the chem ical composition of the human body as exhibited at the National museum. This will personally appeal to the man who Is five feet eight inches high and weighs 104 pounds, SB the exhibit at the museum represents the elements and their quantities In the body of an average healthy man of that height and weight These compounds are placed In a glass case, the collection consisting of tbirty-two bottles, Jars and boxes, labeled and set on sbelves. Man does not show to advantage when reduced to water, powders and gas. but be Is worth attention not only from n scientific viewpoint, but as a moral lesson. The chemical compounds of which our bodies are made up are shown by analysis to consist mainly of thirteen elements. Five of these when uncombined with other elements nre the gases oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, chlorine and fluorine. The remaining eight are solid substances, three of which are nonmetals-carbon. phos phate and sulphur—while the other five are metals—Iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium. Besides these thirteen elements are minute quanti ties of a few others, ob silicon, manga nese and copper. This scientific analy sts differs radically from the nurse lore theory that\boys—and presumably men —are made of "snaps and snails and pappy dog tails" and can be relied on as an official table ot your contents, provided you are a man of 154 pounds. The Inspector of the museum’s ex hibit on man first takes note of a Jar of reddish powder. The label tells one that It lB phosphorus, of which a person contains u pound and a half. The specimen owes Its lurid hue to long exposure. In Its natural state It Is soft, waxy and so Inflammable that to prevent spontaneous combustion It Is preserved under water. United with oxygen It forms phosphoric acid, which In turn combined with calcium, as phosphate ot lime, Is an important con stituent of hone. Phosphorus also oc curs lu the brain and nerves. Next to the jar Is a chunk of sulphur the size of un egg. It Is found lu various parts of the body, notably In the bones and teeth. The next bottle contains what looks to be 5 cents' worth of darning needles. It represents one- tentb of an ounce of Iron, an Impor tant constituent of the red coloring matter of blood. The visitor next learns that bis body Includes three pounds and thirteen ounces ot calcium, which Incidentally may explain any hankering he may buvd for the limelight. This calcium Is u yellowish metal, somewhat harder than lead. It Is the basis of lime and occurs throughout the body, principal ly ns bones and teeth, In the form of phosphate. On another jar one reads: “Potassium, a soft metal, easily cut with a kulfe and showing a silver white luster. When thrown on wnter It decomposes the water, combining with thu oxygen with such avidity that the hydrogen set free, takes fire. It is the basis of potash and occurs lu the body prlu clpally as chloride and phosphate.” Naturally you know this must all he ao. hut appearauces are against It. The specimen does not In the least look like "a soft metal with a silver wlilto luster.” It Is the llvlug Image of two pounds of shop worn dates, the appearance ot it being due te exposure no doubt. In a 154 pound human body are nine ty-seven pounds of oxygen, which would If set free fill a space of nearly 1,090 cubic feet. The body also carries fifteen pounds ot hydrogen, which If allowed to escape would fill a corre sponding iirea. One should he partic ularly glad to know about this gas, because it explains where spellbinders get their supplies. The specimens of these gases are compressed in big glass jars that look sweaty Inside, hut otherwise are apparently empty. Hy drogen, like carbon, Is burned in the body by uniting with oxygen, thus serving as fuel. The water produced Is given oft In the respiration through the lungs and as perspiration through the skin. On the bottom shelf, along with other specimens, is a tin box containing thir ty-one pounds of anthracite coal. It represents that amount of carbon In a human body. Cnrbon combines with oxygen.. In this combination heat and force are generated and carbonic add gas formed. The carbon takeu In the body In food Is burned In this way by the oxygen of the Inhaled air, yielding bent to keep the body warm and force musculnti strength for work. The car bonic acid gas Is given out by the lungs nml skin. Carbon thus serves as fuel for the body and Is Its most Important fuel element. Then there are the 'fats, twenty-two and one-fourth pounds out of 154. Hu- mau fat consists of stearin, palmitan and olein, with varying portions In dif ferent parts. On a card may be read: “The so called complex fatB, protagon, lecithin, cerebrin and others, resemble the neutral fats. The quantity Is not definitely known, but Is supposed to amount to about twelve ounces. These fats are very difficult to obtain, and only small specimens are shown, with special labels. They occur chiefly In the brain, spinal cord and nerves, though found In other parts.” By way of Illustration there are jars packed with tallow that account very v pie who oppose our A small jsr contains what looks to be a smear of black molasses. It la a specimen of lecithin, which occurs In one’s brain and which Is also fourtd In the yolk of an egg. Another little dab of something Is labeled “cerebrin,” a complex fat from the brain and spinal marrow. Glycogen, still. another little mess, is an animal starch from the liv er, and fnoslte Is a kind of sugar ob tained from the muscles. This Is alBo found In plants. A large Jar Is labeled "gelatlnolfls," and you read that a man weighing 154 pounds contains about nine pounds and fourteen ounces, the amount shown. Gelatlnold compounds resemble In chemical composition and properties the gelatin used -In cooking, and that Is precisely what it.looks like. The thirteen pounds of albuminoids contained In a man who touches the scales at 454 resemble so much yel low comment, well ground. As to the speck of ugly brown Btutf near by, you would never guess what It stood for if the label did not explain that It was “hemoglobin, the red coloring matter of blood, very difficult to obtain,” and a small specimen of which is shown, together with one pound and two ounces ot dried blood to represent the probable quantity of hemoglobin In the blood of an ordinary man. Hemo globin serves as the carrier of oxygen In the blood from the lungs to all parts of the body. It you are a 154 pound man you con tain forty-six quarts of water univer sally distributed In your body. No chemical analysis of a human body has ever been made, bnt from analysis of the different parts the amounts of the more Important com pounds may be approximately esti mated. When one has read the labels, count ed the jars and looked the outlay over the conclusion is reached that man has as many ingredients as a mince pie. One will always know after this that when be dies it Is because nature has gone on a coal strike or that hemo globin Is asleep at the switch. Right before one’s eyes are the pinch of this and the sprinkle ot the other that make a brain—or an egg yolk— anil In another bottle Is the nasty little Bmear of brown stuff that gives the heart's blood Its crimson—the brain and the heart that have ruled this world since Adam. The visitor says to himself as be leaves the ease: “Science may have here all the materials for making a man, but there Is only one chemist who can put them together. His name Is God.”—Washington Star. Deaths from Appendicitis decrease in the same ratio that the use of Dr. King's New Life Pills Increases.

In a big sign that Is strung across Washington street the words appear thus: "Hel- low-BIll.” This is a system of Spelling which Is not generally familiar to the people of these parts. The new sound system of spelling Is gaining some following since Its advocacy by Andrew Carnegie, but this Is a differ ent system from-that. It adds letters to words rather than takes them off. Of course, the committee on decora, tlon lays the blame on the sign paint- dr, and say that he would probably have put an "E” on "Bill” If there had been room enough on the sign. But one of the Elks was smart enough to explain the extra “w”jby saying that they had It put there on purpose, to attract attention. Tho best safeguard against head ache, constipation and liver troubles Is DeWltt's Little Early Risers. Keep a vial ot these famous little pills In the house nnd take a dose a,t bedtime when you feel that the stomach and bowels need cleansing. They don’t gripe.

It’s one of the most attractive goat teams you ever saw, and It furnishes no*end of merriment everywhere, es pecially to the children." More News from, the New England States. If anyone has any doubt as to the virtue of Foley's Kidney Cure, they need only to refer to Mr. Alvin H. Stlmpson, of Wllllmantic, Conn., who, after almost losing hope of recovery, on account ot the failure ot so many remedies, finally tried Foley’s Kidney Cure, which he says was “just the thing” for him, as four bottles cured him completely. He Is now entirely well and free from all the suffering in- cldent to acute kidney trouble. For sale by Hllsman-Sale Drag Co. Annual Outing of Sunday School at Phllema Next Tuesday. ■ ■ i ' 1 Mr. A.
