; Pellagra and Income,
After a three-year study of pellagra
in the cotton-mill villages of South
Carolina, the United States public
health service shows that pellagra
varies inversely with the family in
come in this lqcality. As the income
fell the disease was found to increase
~and+~to affect more members of the
same family. As the income rose the
disease decreased, and was rarely
found in families that enjoyed the
highest incomes, even though this
highest was still quite low.
A recent statement given by one of
the large life insurance companies in
dicates that the food standards of
* Southern wage earners must have im
proved remarkably of late, for the
death rate from pellagra has fallen
from 6.7 per 100,000 in 1915 to 2.8 in
1919.
Much Gasoline Wasted, - = .
About one-third of the gasoline msed:
in automobiles is wasted. This is the
conclusion reached by A. C. Fieldner
of the United States bureau of mines,
from experiments under traffic condi
tions to determine the air pollution of
the vehicular tunnels under New Yérk
city. The waste is chiefly due to too
rich gasoline mixture. It is estimated
that an improved and practically au
tomatic carburetor might save Ameri
can auotmobilists] $34,000,000 a year.

TO CLIMB MOUNT EVEREST
British Royal Geographical Society
- Said to Be Contemplating Am
bitious Expedition.
Enormous interest has been aroused
by the announcement that the Royal
Geographical society contemplates fit
‘ting out an expedition to atfempt the
-ascent” of Mount Everest, #in the
" Himalayas. For not only is this the
_highest mountain on the globe; but it
s ‘also the world’s mystery mountain,
_Although it was discovered 70 years
-ago, no European has yet succeeded
“In getting anywhere nearer than about
_fifty miles to it, much less setting foot
. on its slopes.
“ . This fs because it so happens that it
g Sifvated partly in Nepal and partly
In Tibet, and the governments of both
‘these countries object to the presence
of European explorers, :
“ Besides this the Nepal base of the
giant mountain is in any case prac
tically unapproachable, owing to the
dense jungle growth, extending for a
width of 60 or 76 miles all round, and
into whose depths no white man may
venture and live,
The proposal now is to attempt the
ascent from the Tibetan side. This is
doubtless possible, but whether the
summit can be reached or not is an
other matter,
. Most experts say not, and point to
the fact that the duke of Abruzzi’s
attémpt to scale Mpunt Godwin-Aus
tin, Everest’s mighty neighbor, and
the second highest peak in the world,
resulted in failure,
He ascended as far 24,600 feet, but
was then obliged to turn back, owing
to the difficulty of breathing, due to
the extreme rarefaction of the air.
Mount Everest is more than 29,000
feet high,
(ANCIENT HARPS OF IRELAND
Two Instruments, Each Having a Dis
tinct Purpose, Were in Use in -
Olden Times.
. The“ancient Irish harp was of two
kinds—a small instrument used chiefly
for religious purposes, first by the old
Druids in their rites, and later by the
Christian bishops and abbots. The
other harp was large, and was used
in public assemblies and in battles.
The bagpipes were ingroduced into
Ireland from Caledonia. They had
the same use in the Irish armies they
now, have in the Highland regiments.
But the Irish made, in the course of
time, an improvement, using bellows
to fill the chanter, instead of the
mouth, and continued improving the
\instrument untfl the union-pipes of to
,day. are the result.
» A 8 to early Irish harpers and their
music there is little known, but at
Queen Elizabeth’s court, Irish tunes
were popular. Of late huge books of
ancient Irish melodies have been col
lected and arranged. Petrie has at
tracted attention to this field by his
thorough investigation of Irish folk

India Ink Really Chinese Ink.
. : The intensely black inks have vari
ous sorts of finely divided carbon as
their pigment, and the vehiele in most
instances is some type of oil or var
nish. llndia ink is the name often ap
plied to what is in reality - Chinese
ink. The best of this variety comes
from the Anhui province and is made
from' the lamp black produced when
wood oil is slowly burned in one earth
enware vessel and the soot or lamp
black produced is collected on the
sides of a second jar placed above the
first. A paste is made with varnish
Bnd pork fat and this is then mixed
with glue. Some ink is made from
.the soot of sesame or rapeseed oil,
but in any case the paste is pressed
into molds. There are, of course,
many grades of this ink, the lower
being made from the coarser soot and
glue. In 1918 the Chinese exported
127,000 pounds -of this ink.—Scientific
American Monthly,
Literature of the Czechs.
Czechic literature has voluminous
and impressive accomplishments to
show. Take, for example, Bohemia’s
three great writers of the nineteenth
century, Dobrovsky, Jungmann and
Palacky. Jungmann compiled a die
tionary of the Czech language in five
volumes, Palacky wrote a work of 20,-
000 pages on Czechic history, and Dob
rovsky wrote a grammar of Czechic.
The most indefatigable writer, how
gver, was Jaroslav Vrchlicky." He
translated Dante’s “Divine Comedy,”
Ariosto’s “Orlando Furioso,” Calderon,
“Faust,” Walt Whitman, as well as
works from French, Hebrew,-Yiddish
and Chinese, No one knows how he
found the time to do it. Among the
leading Czech writers of the present,
Frana Sramek, Toman Kaogicek, the
Capek brothers and Theer rank high.

Mrs, H. R. Peavey, R. F. D. No.

kidneys and just about able to keep
up. I suffered from dizziness and
black spots floated before my eyes.
My kidneys acted irregularly and my
back was in terrible shape. There
was a dull ache in the small of my
back all the time and at times, 'a%
sharp pain shot through it. Th'sl
is the condition|l was in when \I
began taking Dban’s Kidney Pills.l

to take” Doan's a f times. I be
lieve Doan’s; will help\others. They
are the best kidney re have
ever taken.” o
The above statement was given
May 16, 1914 and on March 9, 1918,
Mrs. Peavey said: “I seldom have
any trouble now, but if I have the
least sign of kidney complaint,
Doan’s Kidney Pills never fail to do
the work. Doan’s are certainly a
