Electric Furnace One of Scientific Freaks When men can thrust their bare hands Into an electric furnace that rielts metal with ease, It would seem that there is such a thing as cold heat. White mice, too, will run about In this furnace without suffering any ill- effects, white an interior of a wireless valve can be heated to incandesecn.ee without Lion ting the glass |^ulh itself. The secret Is that the furnace heats only electrical conductors, being a high-frequency Inductance furnace. It. la in the manufacture of wireless valves that one of the most Interest ing uses of tills furnace Is found. Just before the valve Is sealed from the vacuum pump U Is placed for a mo ment within a high-frequency coil. The metal parts Immediately become red hot and tlie bubbles of gas and vapor arc boiled out. The valve Is then scaled from the pump with the knowledge that the later heating of the valve by the .filament will not cause further release of bubbles. T REUSING CLUB.

Many a woman of this type is hope lessly extravagant. She knows that her husband will make any sacrifice to gratify even her slightest whim. But s?ho often does not know that the very love which ninke3 him spoil her will make him violently condemn her If she Indulges in dangerous indiscretions. Love is somewhat like dynamite. If properly handled, It can serve the most ur.eful of purposes. If treated carelessly, It can cause havoc and even death.—True Story Magazine. 01 said Comp.my. flVis July 2,1923 'J'. F.

The noble and aris tocratic Egyptians and Greeks laid an exquisite appreciation of the nlce.tles of life, One of their most cherished treasures was their sterling silver, which they had in abundance and from which they drunk and feasted. It was their accredited tableware ns it was ‘of the nobles of the Romnn empire. Cups and vessels of this precious metal have come down to us through the ages In a perfect state of preser vation. “ P Ur. iversily Defined American Universities and Colleges says that In the United States a uni versity Is an Institution of higher learning, comprising a college or col leges of arts, literature and science— historically the first part of the Amer ican university to come Into exist ence—and professional colleges or schools of law, medicine, theology, etc., and especially a graduate school of arts, literalnro and science. Tn nd dition to schools and colleges de voted to instruction and research, the university Includes divisions of lab oratories, libraries and museums, and sometimes a university press and research institutes. Not every Institu tion which calls Itself u university measures up to this definition.

Elephant Supreme in ;; Ruler ship of Jungle Elephants are found nearly every where In Indo-Chlna except in Tank ing. They are similar to the rndlnn elephants, and although they have been divided Into several subspecies, on very slender ground, they nil be long to the same race: Eh-phas mnxi- mus. Not so tall as their African cor-ins, but very nearly as big, they differ from the latter by a good number of points, “F. J." sn.vs, writing In the Atlantic Monthly.Their ears are much smaller and differently shaped. Their trunk Is absolutely lloxlhlc am] riot made of numerous segments, tml rather like a hlg rubber tube with only one fingerlike proboscis at the tip Their hack Is convex from the shoul ders to the root of the tall nnd their forehead Is slightly concave. Also the brain capacity Is larger than in the African species, thus making the head shot far more deadly. An Asiatic elephant charging Is easily stopped with a bullet In tlm forehead. To my mind, the elephant deserves the name of King of Beasts more than docs the lion or the tiger, lie fears only man, and that not always lie is the unchallenged master.of the Jungle and, confident In his onorm ms strength, lends among Its denizens a peaceful existence, fearing norm and uttacking none. fnsa i examler S. lienlst. j ttO mxy Not Often Caused by Ovcrsiudy "It Is a fallacy tn believe that over- study causes Insanity, Overstud,v like any mental overwork onuses n state of exhaustion and brain fag.

Helped by Black-Draught. “I think we owe the re markable healthy record of our family to tlio use of Black-Draught,” savs Mrs. J. H. Luther, 514 W. Bel knap St., Ft.

Somebody recommended Black-Draught to me, and p.:‘ some and tried It. 1 felt so much better, af ter f had taken it, that I used it the next time I was sick, and then the next. I soon found it to be a dependable medicine to use for my family. “Whenever the children had colds, or an upset stomach, I treated them with Black-Draught.” Sold everywhere; 25o. Operator Cat In on Greenland, Long Ago, Colonized by Danes Greenland was originally colonized by Scandinavians, about tlio year 1000, but the colony dwindled nnd became extinct shortly before 1500, owing clih'fiy to the inroads of the Eskimo. Tlio existing Danish colony was es tablished in 1721, The aborigines, says the Smithsonian institution, nre all of Eskimo stock and number altogeth er about 11,000, including a very large proportion of mixed bloods, who, ns u rule, adhere to Eskimo customs and language. This number seems to he consider ably higher titan In 1721, but the dif ference is largeiy, if not entirely, to be accounted for by the Increase of the mixed-blood stock from European intermarriage. _ Theory cf Arrhenius Svante August Arrhenius, the noted Swedish chemist and physicist, be lieves that life is an interstellar ele ment and may be transmitted from one planet to another. According to ids conception, life is universally dif fused and is constantly emitted from all habitable worlds in the form of spores. These spores traverse space for years, and possibly ages. The ma jority of them are ultimately de- slroyed by the beat of some blazing star, but some few, he thinks, find a resting place on bodies which have already reached the habitable stage. Life, according to Arrhenius, may al so be transmitted from one heavenly body to another by means of meteors. —L’allifiuder Magazine.

Frenchmen who have adven tured abroad suggest that a notebook nnd pencil will help out the officers, for they have found It simpler In Eng land nnd America to write their qeus- tions rather than wrestle with the foreign accent. Prehistoric Burvivor a How We Get “Dixie” Dixie, ns a pet name for (lie South bind, had .Us origin in New Orleans ami can he traced to certain bank notes issued by the Citizens batik of Louisiana, according to a theory ad vanced in Pathfinder Magazine. The mixed population of (lie state ot Louisiana at that time necessitated the printing of paper nofes in both. French and English, so that 310 notes appeared with English on one side and the French ward "Dix," meaning 10, on the other. The notes were for this reason christened “Dixit.-." nnd the Citizens bank was popularly known ns the Dixie bank. The word spread until It was ap plied to the whole South. The old bank, supposed to have been the first Dixie bank, still stands at the Rue Itoynlo in New Orleans. “Pass” in History Tho cat came to us from Egypt, At least tlio Egyptians are the first peo ple among whom wo find notices of this animal.

No mention of the r it Is made tn the Bible or In A- yrlan records.
