The Herald, 1911-09-08, Page 6NOTES AND COMMENTS
rt'ir Ray Lankester has been com-
Ialainieg in the British press of the
fact that science has given the geu-
oral publiclittle information on
how to be safe in electrical storms.
The greatest clanger for a human
'being in a thunder storax is to be
the highest rooting object on the
surface. Hence it is dangerous to
be out ou a golf links or hillside of
in ri. small boat on water. The wise
thing is to take shelter in a house,
or, if that is not accessible, in a
carve or under overhanging rock,
or in a hole, or to lie flat.. Many
more persons are struck, accord-
ing to statistics, in the open than
when taking shelter under trees,
and it appears, from statistics,
that more are killed when seeking
safety under oak trees than under
beech trees, but this may be due
to the relative abundance of those
trees or to the nature of the soil
in whi'h they grow.
ECZEMA IS CAUSED
Avoid a solitary high tree, but
seek protection in a wood or clump
of many small trees. In a. house
avoid, during a storm, placing
yourself between two large and
prominent conductors of ,electri-
city, such as the water pipe or gas
main and the fireplace. If the house
is a detached one or a corner house
in a row and the storm is close, you
may do well to retire into the base-
ment until the storm" is over. On
the whole, the long rows of houses
of fairly equal height in the streets
sf a great town are about as safe
LS any place during an electric
storm. They are so safe that it

Cures. by Dr, Williams' Pink Pills
Because They Make Pule Blood
Ask any doctor and he will tell
you that eczema is caused by im-
purities in the blood; that nothing
can cure it that does not reach the
blood—that salves and outward ap-
plications are worthless and a
waste of money. The reason why
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have al-
ways been so successful in curing
this most annoying trouble is be-
cause they act directly on the blood,
reaching the root of the trouble
and driving out all impurities.
They banish eczema, salt rheum,
and unsightly pimples and erup-
tions, relieve the irritation and
itching and give perfect health.
Mrs. A. Puling, of Milestone,
Sask., says : "I was afflicted with
a bluud and skin disease which the
doctor called eczema, but which
did not yield in the 'least to his
treatment. I was covered with
sores and in very bad shape. A
friend advised me to to take Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills and after us-
ing eight or nine boxes I was com-
pletely cured. I can strongly re-
commend the Pills to anyone suf-
fering from that trouble."
A medicine that can make new,
red blood will cure not only skin
troubles, but also anaemia, rheu-
Pnatism, neuralgia, indigestion and
a host of other troubles simply be-
cause these troubles are the result
of bad blood. Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills make new blood and under
their use blood and nerve troubles
disappear. Sold by all medicine
dealers or by mail at 50 cents a
box or six boxes for $2.50 from The
Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.,
Brockville, Ont,
i. to eles rkin g to• lovers of senti
lment to ierira that a warfare has
been begun upon the cricket in Bris-
tol, England, 'which the -cold blood-
ed inhabitants hope will end in ex-
termination. The "little inmate
full of mirth" which all persons of
kindly superstitions, in the name
Milton and Dickens, .have pro-
tected and endured, even when its
persistent cheerfulness banished
Sleep from human eyes, is to be set
upon with poison powder and swat-
ter and driven from' the land., If
"the cricket began it," the Bristol-
jaus mean to end it.
They have no desire, apparently,
to cultivate that-"divinest melons
'choir which the little chirping
beastie aroused in the mind of the
author of "Paradise Lost" ; nor
does it,ayouse in them, as it did in
the mind of Gilbert White, "a train
of summer ideas of everything that
is rural, verdant, and joyous."
Well, it is the time of passing for
old fancies: The pretty myths and
the pleasing fears depart.. We grow
brave as we grow learned, and
dare, no doubt, crush a cricket or
shout an albatross yvithout tear of
the results. No one cares to.,per-
mit the innocent buzz of the happy
house fly ; but, after all, it seems
as if they were almost repulsively
scientific in Bristol. To kill all the
crickets. Really, it seems as if that
were going too far.
HIS MISTAKE.
"I used to think I could hire all
the brains I wanted for $W5 a
week" said Mr. Pushem. "Well,
couldn't yang" "Yes. But ;t
wasn't long before I had to call in
a $100,000 lawyer to straighten out
thekinks they put into my affairs."
• THAT'S WHY.
Benedict—"Do you know, old
man, I don't spend so much money
now as I did before I was mar-
ried'l"
Bachelor—"How's that?"
Benedict—"Well, I don't have it
to spend."
If attacked with cholera or sum-
mer complaint of any kind send at
once for a bottle of Dr. J. D. Kel-
logg's Dysentery Cordial and use
it according to, directions. It acts
with wonderful• rapidity in subdu-
ing that dreadful disease that weak-
ens the strongest man and that de-
stroys the young and delicate.
Those who have used this cholera
medicine say it acts promptly, and
never fails to effect a thoroa h Lure.
A FAIR QUESTION.
Willie—"Pa ?"
Pa—"Yes."
Willie—`'Teacher says that we're
here to help others."
Pa—"Of course we are."
Willie—"Well, what are the
others here fort"

A well-known lawyer met ars old-
time friend named Duller. After
a hearty handclasp, Mr. Fuller re-
marked : - "You are looking - ex-
ceeding well. Aren't you filling out

the other. t' ou probably think
so because I'm looking Fuller in

TOOTHLESS SAWS.
Toothless saws have been in use
Jutting armor plate for a' number
of. years. The theory of the action
is abrasion by local fusion due to
:he very high speed ,of the disk,
,'ausing so many thousand inches of
eirfaceto impinge on the metal un-
der-eut that the material acted upon
is heated at the point of contact to
e temperature approaching if not
equal to the fusing point. It ap-
pears as if a very .small portion of
the metal being •cut immediately in
the neighborhood of the point of
contact is first melted and at once
rubbed off, thus exposing a fresh
surface to the frictional action, and
that this process 'goes on continu-
ously while the disk is working.
The temperature of the disk must
necessarily be much lower than the
work in contact with it owing to its
large surface area, and when it is
considered that all •the frictional
energy of the rotating disk is con-
centrated on an extremely, small
area of, contact in the material sub-
jected to its action the results ob-
tained are not so surprising as ap-
pear at first .eight.—Cassier's Mag-
azine.'

FRANCE ENCOURAGES THRIFT.
With a view to encouraging
thrift, in France, M. Chaumet, un-
der secretary of state to the post
office, has issued a circular to the
directors of departments, tram
which it appears that varions muni-
cipalities intend to put a franc in
the savings banks in the name of
every child as soon as it is born.
By way of assisting the communes
in their laudable efforts to encour-
age the habit of saving among child-
ren the Post Office Savings Bank
will accept the deposits made in
the names of newly -born babies.
There is a stipulation that, the
children cannot withdraw the de-
posits made by the parish until
they have reached their majority,
or get married.
