So now we understand that it would

Germs stake It possible for men to
live, germs cause men to die, and
germs destroy tate bodies ot men
when they are death. Germs are our
greatest friends and our fiercest foes.
They cause plants to grow. Thoy
assist man to make linen, jute, hemp,
butter, cheese, and many other things,
They are the great scavengers that
destroy dead tissues.
But unfortunately some few ot the
many different kinds of germs have
learned how to attack human beings,
with the result that in the great Icing-
dom of germ lite there aro some kinds
more dangerous to humans than all

Inas ever seen. Yet, till the seven-

Let us consider a concrete example
of u germ that attacks the human sys-
tem. Let us consider diphtheria.
Germs ot this disease attack the
throat of a human being; in such a
warm moist place they rapidly feed
and breed. Now if that were all that
happened it wouldn't be so bad, but
like' all other living creatures germs
give off au excreta and this in the
case of diphtheria germ Is poisonous
to the human system. Titis poison
apreads throughout the body, and as a
result of it the disease known as diph-
theria develops..
From tide example, we sen that
-many diseases are caused by different
kinds of germs. To better understand
this, lot us pieture a Walled city in
the middle ages, a city- peacotul and
prosperous. Suddenly an invading
luny sweeps down upon it. Now that
is what happens when the human
body is invaded by germs, It main-

plied from Disintegration of Atoms
Beneath Surfacce
A thousand scientiets in all parts of in the atom wo are speaking of using
the power which results wh.on the
atom itself, the combination of ,pro-,
tons and electrons, is broken down,
SemaO
p wet some 'force binds the
parts of an atom together. The secret
at tieing the IioWer• is the atom is to.
rind an tnexperisive way of releasing
that atomic binder.
"A method for extracting the pewee
,of the atom' must tear the atom apart.
if it is to be of any practical value.
Energy in a disintegrating radium
atom is a terrific • force—radium des-
troys itself."
A great contribution which perhaps
comes the closest to showing men of
science what is th composition of the
atom was desci+ibed recently by Dr.
Arthur Compton; the 1,827 Nobel Pelee
winner in physics. Iris experiments
indicate that scientists will havo to
abandon the idea that atoms are form-
ed like minute, universes. According
to Dr.. Compton, the atone is not a
miniature solar} system iu which the
tiny negative charges of eleetriclty—
the electrons Move in a fixed orbit
around the protan, or nucleus, of posi-
tive electricity. Nov is the electron a
diffused cloud et negative electricity.
It is, rather, composed or particles of
Matter distributed like raindrops in a

But man has done better. In his la
boratories 1,000,000 degrees Conti -
,grade is not unknown. Sir Arthur Ed-
dingtou recently said that if we could
'Stir up a heat ot '29,000,060 or 40,000,-
ett degrees the. atom, might begin to
. g!vo e i o11flc yield, of its energy, He
went on 'to make the astonishing
•statement' that "40,090,000 degrees is,
perhaps, not beyond attainment in our
laboratories.
Splitting the Atom
• "At Cavendish. Laboratory," he con-
tinued, Dr,
on-tinued,Dr, Hapitza, produces .monten-
tat'y fields in which the concentration
of energy corresponds to about 1,000,-
000
,000;000 degrees Centigrade: If he should
be able to raise this to 40,000,000—
well, I don't really think subatomic
energy will come pouring out, but,, just
to be on the safe side, I shall take
care not to be too near the laboratory
when the experiment: is tried."
Sir Arthur itddington : has stated
that there fa enough. energy in a drop
ot water to -furnish `200 horse -power
for a year; that perhaps some day
great generating stations . • with
wharves and sidings would be neces-
sary; and instead of pampering the
appetites of our engines with coal O'r
oil, we shall induce them to work on a
plain diet of subatomic energy. If
that day comes, barges, trucks, and
cranes will disappear and a year's sup
ply of fuel for a station—thirty grams
of water—wills be carried lea tea -cup.
Dr, Thomas Johnson states that we
were being served by atomic energy
in a way we do not realize,
"It is a common belief," be said,
"that the earth is kept warm by the
heat ot the sun. While sunlight comes
to- us in great volume, it is not' suf-
iicieut to nhniutalu the globe at its pre-
sent temperature, Making human habi-
tation possible,
"The earth is also heated from with.
M: We aro being served by the «Is-
integation ot atoms below the. surface
of the earth.- The radium oras, the
potassium group of minerals, and so
on, constantly disintegate and give off
energy. The known deposits of these
disintegrating ores, plus the heat
which we receive from the sun, rough-
ly approximate to the amount of heat
"Several Weeks ago," said. Dr. Comp-
ton, "2 noticed, a halo around the
moon.. Half an hour later the • halo
was ,visibly entailer In diameter and
rain began^to fall, The interpretation
of such haloes—due to• the diffraction
of the moonlight by droplets of water
suspended in the air—is well•known.
By observing the diameter of the halo
we cast estimate, the size of water
drops which cause It. .A shrinking
halo means a growing drop and hence
probable rain."
Dr. Compton applied• the same rule
to "see" inside the atom. "In a stag-
ier manner; he said, "it is possible to
find the size of molecules and atoms
In a gas by observing the diffraction
haloes produced when they are tra-
versed by a bean of X-rays.
"We substitute X-rays for the moon-
light"and, instead of the raindrops or
vapour, use helium, argon, neon, or
some other gas, The X-ray makes
diffraction haloes on the gas just as
=penlight makes it on the raindrops.
jest as we can estimate the size and
position : of the raindrops, we can
similarly estimate the 'arm and mai.
tion of the electrons.
"Accordingly, we may say, whit
some confidence, that the aspect of the
.problem of atonic structure which is
concerned with the distribution of the
energy on the earth. •electrons in atoms is finding a satts-

A traveller stopped in the dusty road
And rested from his heavy load;

And asked: "What sole of road runs

Anel o'er my head the hot sun burned."

You'll find that yonder road's the

Then came a youth so blithe and gay
And asked: "How travel yonder way?
For since the morning sun gleamed

When e'en •bhe will flowers smiled at

Court Shoes
There is nothing so smart_as a
court shoe. '
I can't wear then.," you may ob-
loot. "They sag or bag; they are
not comfortable." Stuff and non-
sense; Unless Jou have an abnormal
foot, you are just as well able t0
wear this smart type et shoe as any-
ono
nyono else. They need choosing with
care that's all!
A court shoo, needs to be of a very
• good shape. Some people may find
the new type cut down at the side
and then up again, very satisfactory.'
Otherwise it is well to choose a pair
cut rather high. These fit to the
.foot bettor, give more support, and
do not show so wide an expanse of
instep This, partioularly in a broad
foot, can be very esgle'. e -
Never choose a .court shoe that is
on the small side. in this type of
shoe the foot has a natural tendency
to slip forward a little. ft the shoe
is tight or short, the toes will draw
hl a .little; obviously au unnatural
and bad position tor walking. •
Choose, then, a shoe that eels easily.
Il It sags a little at the sides, have 11
'shrunk while you wait. Do not have
it shrunk too much at first, but se-
turn and have it, shrunk again es. soon
as the shoe has had a reasonable
amount of wear. This is theproper
treatment foe' e court shoes.,' These
shoes need shrinking and good shoe
Shops usually •expeot to give this
treatment. Court shoes• lose their
reputation for amartnese at once if.
they are allowed to sag.
Court altoes are not setis•taatosy for
long distance walking or for dancing.
In each case, they seem to give in-
eufficiemt support. The plain court
shoe is, perhaps, the smartest... The
court shoe 'with a buckle tends to
make the foot look larger.

Hawk '.Drips Blood
During Wartime
Baden-Powell Tells; Remark-
able Story of Mummified
Bird From Egypt-
London—An extraordinary tale 01
an Egyptian mummified• hawk' that
drips "blood" during war time was
told recently by Lord Baden -:Powell,
chief Scout.
Lord Baden-Powell sayshe is not
superstitious enough to believe . that
the hawk really forecasts the coming
ofwar, but thinks its prophetic pow-
ers are -"an amazing coincidence."
Asked to amplify a brief reference
he madeto the bird at a recent ban-
quet, he
an-quet,he said: "The bird; which is in
a mummified state, was discovered in
1887 by `a friend 01 mine during ex-
cavation work in Egypt:
"By comparing it with other things,
discovered at the same time, he eon-
eluded.
oneluded that the. bird was at least 4,000
years .old.
"I saw the thing for :the first time
the other 'day at a friend's private
museum, .It is in a wonderful state
of preservation, and although the eyes
are gone, :one can still elearly see the
beak -and the feathers,
"On the shelf where the bird stands,
I noticed a dry, brown stain, and
When I questioned my friend about it•
he told me that about a month be-
fore the outbreak of the Boer War
the hawk became damp and gently
oozed bubbles of this stuff.
"All through the campaign this
'sweating' continued, until about a
month before the tear ended, when
as suddenly and mysteriously as It
had begun, the dripping ceased.
"But exactly a month before the
outbreak of the Great War the bub-
bles again appeared, ane the amazing
fact is that they again stopped just
a mouth before the Armistice."
