Black-Draught Makes Her
Feel Fit, Says Missouri Lady.
Mrs. Anna M. Hanley, 2536
Brighton Street, Kansaa City,
Mo., says:
"I have found Black-
Draught a most satisfactory
medicine for constipation,
with which ailment I was
troubled for a long time.
“Often I suffered from se
vere headaches which came, I
think, from absorbed poisons.
I had a dull, sluggish feeling,
and my \vork was accomplish
ed only by ^reat efforts.
“I had heard about Blaclc-
Draught, so I decided to try
it, arid am thankful to say
I was greatly benefited after
tailing it.
“Black-Draught relieved my
constipation and, after I had
over-come that condition, t
found the other troubles dis
appeared, too.”

Now York.—Edward Itakuylan of
44!) West Fiftieth street, a wiry little
fellow who boasts that lie is "six
years old and nblo to make bis own
living,” was giving what lie termed n
“first-class show" and reaping a har
vest of dimes and quarters in the
Sliubert Alley Bus terminal, in the
rear of the Hotel Astor. Along came
Patrolman John Creehnn, who, ob
serving that Edward had neither coat
nor hot and was wearing a pair of
trousers which admitted (ho winter
blasts at several places, stopped the
performance and bustled tit: boy and
Ids dog to the station house.
Edward resented the interruption.
When bis wrath failed he tried plead
ing. When pleading availed nothing,
lie tried just a little bit of plain fib
bing.
Argument and Proof.
"Now see here, mister,” said the boy
when questioned by the policeman,
“I’tu six years old and I’ve got a liv
ing to make. This here dog of mine
is an expert dog. We give shows all
over town. ‘Boozey’," lie commanded,
"say ‘how-do-you-do’ to the cop."
A little mongrel fox terrier with a
piece of rope fastened to his collar
with n padlock and the other end
held in the boy’s hand, dutifully sal
up ou liis haunches and barked.
A group of passengers waiting for
busses admitted in response to the
boy’s question that they had "got
their money’s worth,” hut the .patrol
man was insistent that the boy ought
not to be out on the streets so scantily
clad.
“Have a heart, won’t you, mister?
1 can’t make no money in a police
station,” pleaded the lad. "My father’s
sick in the hospital and my mother
has to go out to work, so I got to take
care of myself, see! AYe got to get a
start tliis way. Boozey and me are
going to be on the stage some day.
Boozey! Count three, show ’em what
you can do!"
. Boozey barked three times.
“Sec,” said the boy, "lie can do lots
of tricks. We’ve been all over New
York doing tricks. Boozey! Do a
dance!”
And when Edward Whistled “East
Side, West Side,” the dirty little ter
rier stood up on bis bind legs and
waltzed. "See, mister, you’re break
ing up a first-class show.”
But Edward finally landed In the
station bouse. Thero-in the back room
be found Tommy, four years old, last
name unknown, lost and crying.
Cut He Stopped That.
“Gee whiz, kid," commented the
newcomer, "you’re crying just because
you’re lost. YOU don’t know what
hard luck IS. You ought to be in my
shoes. Out making a good living and
have some copper butt in. Here’s a
quarter. Stop crying." From bis well-
filled pocket lie extracted a coin, which
lie nonchalantly tossed to 1 he boy.
"Your face is dirty, too," observed
Edward. Whereupon lie drew a cup of
Water front the cooler nnd proceeded
to wash Tommy’s face, using Ills shirt
sleeve for a towel. Tommy stopped
crying.
Meantime Eddie’s mother, Mrs.
Ailecn Bnkuyian, arrived at the sta
tion. She explained that it was true
that her husband, Harry, was In Belle
vue hospital and that she was forced
to go out to work. Temporarily she
was boarding l be boy at 484 West
Forty-seventh street, but since lie had
found Boozey nnd had taught the dog
{ricks, she had *pent a great deal of
her time retrieving them both from
the various police stations.
The boy was turned over to Ills
mother, who took him home.

TO CIRCLE WORLD
IN TWENTY DAYS
French Aeronautical Experts
Say It Can Be Done.
raris.—‘‘Around the world in 20
days” will be practical in a few years,
according to calculations of French
aeronautic experts based on the nu
merous flights from Paris to the Far
East accomplished In the last two
years.
From a detailed examination of
these flights it is apparent Hint the
actual flying time over long distances
was only a small part of the time
taken, due to delays on the ground.
Thus, Pelletier D’Oisy, who flew from
Paris to Saigon, a distance of about
7,000 miles, in 18 days, lost three days
at Karachi, India; another day at
Agra and tlir&e more at Calcutta.
The Americans, Brock and Sclilee,
flew from Paris to Rangoon, 6,800
miles, in ten days, having lost one day
at Constantinople, owing to passport
formalities.
Of course, none of these men flew
at night. It is therefore deduced
that, even at present, the Paris-Java
flight, of a little more than 8,000 miles,
can be made in seven days. As the
circumference of the earth is 24,000
miles, the entire circuit could be made
In three weeks. But for tills it will
lie necessary to arrange tho various
“Jumps,” each of which would be
made by a different machine with a
fresh pilot.
The airplanes of 1927 are vastly su
perior to those of three years ago ns
far ns the motors and radius of action
are concerned, but the limit of human
endurance lias not varied. Tills is es
pecially the tfise when It is n question
of n constant effort over ten or more
days.
As far ns commercial flying has
progressed it may be taken that 1,200
miles a day is the average distance
possible. When special measures have
been taken to tnnke hlglit flights safe
the time for tiie world girdling flight
will be appreciably diminished.
been worked out by Dr. Samuel Brody
of the Missouri agricultural experi
ment station. Reporting ids results
in Science Magazine, Doctor Brody
shows that a child between four and
fourteen years of age grows at tho
rate of only 10 per cent a year. Re
duced to days, tills means tliat In less
than four days the young animal gains
as much ns the child gains in a year.
The juvenile period in man spreads
over an enormously long period o(
time compared with that in domestic
animals Doctor Brody states.
Children who have not grown fast
between four and twelve years often
shoot up rapidly between twelve and
fifteen. This appears to be in the na
ture of compensatory growth for nn
earlier deficiency, Doctor Brody con
cludes. Children wiio have grown
more rapidly lu earlier childhood do
not seem to have this acceleration in
their teens.

made here the other day by one of the
world’s greatest experts on. volcanoes,
Dr. Immanuel Friedlaender, director
and founder of the Volcnnological in
stitute-at Naples. In the course of his
wanderings, Doctor Friedlaender was
once captured by Mexican ’bandits,
and lias had many experiences with
live volcanoes, hut he refuses to ad
mit that the career lie lias adopted Is
any more dangerous than other pro
fessions. lie is visiting America in
order lo Interest American scientific
men in the study of volcanology.
Born in Germany, Doctor Fried-
lnender acquired ample means in the
business world and was able to divert
u large part of Ids time and attention
to scientific pursuits. In 1913 he
founded and endowed In Naples the
Volcauological Institute, and at the
: snme tlmwhe launched wlint was then
: the only voleanologieul journal in ex
istence. The World war swept away
a considerable part of his fortune and
| also seriously curtailed the resources
I of the institute, but its work is still
going on under Doctor Friedlaender’s
direction.
Deplores Short-Sightedness.
Asked about the economic value of
volcano research, Doctor Friedlaender
emphasized the fact that it is a short
sighted policy to encourage only those
scientific investigations that promise
to be of " Immediate utility. At the
I same time lie pointed out how often
it has happened that research In pure
science, undertaken with no thought
of practical applications, lias contrib
uted Immensely to the material pros
perity of mankind. When Gnlvani ex
perimented with frogs’ legs, no finan
cially profitable outcome, was to bo
anticipated—yet these experiments be
came one of the cornerstones of the
j great electrical industry of today’.

uses that would be made of the X-
rays at the time he discovered them,

areas are likely to lead to the profit
able exploitation of volcanic prod
ucts, useful in agriculture and other
Industries, Including potash, silicates,

Useful for Power.
“The huge reservoir of volcanic:
pnergy represented by the heat of
rocks and gases could undoubtedly be
tapped In many places nnd used for
power production. Up to the present
time tlio only successful undertaking
in this line has been at Lardarello,
Italy, where thousands of kilowatts
are produced from volcanic steam and
used for power and lighting In the
city of Florence. I believe that In
time to come the greatest of all 1
sources of power will be found In the
subterranean storehouses of volcanic
regions, where the Internal heat of
the earth can be reached at a rela
tively shallow level.
“The limited supplies of coal and
oil in tiie earth will be exhausted la
the comparatively near future. The
water power available in rivers is al
ready to a large extent taken up. Wa
ter power from tiie tides will probably
prove costly to utilize, and the same
is likely to be true of any method
now in sight for using direct solar
energy. In both cases the receiving
apparatus must occupy very large
surfaces nnd cannot work economical
ly. On the other hand, no insurmount
able obstacles seem to exist to tap
ping the earth’s internal heat on a
vast scale, nnd volcanology is paving
the way to this accomplishment."
