Hew tie Moon Affects Human Beings Chinese Comp/air; ofthe CoriditiOne and Helps Hatolt Cltickeina menchnein; The word "lunatic" :Was brit as- I cribed to epileptics, who seem. to be I greatly affected by lunar influences, Says Pearson's Weekly. And it has been noticed that many,nervous mala- dies, such as vertigo, hysteria and sleep -walking, are more acute during the periods of the new and full moon. It is at the period of the moon's change that. these symptoms chiefly. occur. For instance; in several cases' it has been proved that children sub- ject to: convulsions usually suffer most at the time of full moon; where- as.paralytics are subject to recurring tits at new moon. It has also been noticed that in the case of epileptics who are subject to lunar intluence, it is always on the third day ,after the full moon that the fit ends in intertnittent fever. The moon's influence on -Vegetable life hase long been recognized. 'Mar- ket gardeners insist that there is a right time le the moon's phases to plant 'certain crops to secure the . best results, while many old-time farmers would not make a fence or cover a roof unless it Were done at what they consider the proper..thne of moon. . With regard to . this latter point -actual tests have shown that wooden . tiles placed on a roof in the light of the moon will efirl up and not last half as long as those put on when the nky is dark. •' s , A further remarkable fact about the moon's light is its effect on a ' broody hen. It requires an average ' of. twenty-one days for eggs to hatch. Occasionally it has been. noticed that a hen will bring out phicks inday eir two earlier; and this is due to the influence of the moon. The proper time to setea hen is when the moon is new„ or very close et that. period, so nit the moon will be full just abotit a week before the time for hatching arrives', ' . ' Experiments ta:re shown that rainy ,eggs will hatch if set at this time, and that :the young attics will bis stronger and more vigorous,, and will grow more rapidly. On the other hand, clicks hatched when. there. is no moon are often more weakly,, a,nd do not make such strong and ;rigorous fowls, nor are they such good egg -layers, Wine also seems fo be subject to this influence, and it is well known that it is'not wiee to make wine when the moon is waning. There are various reasons given to account for this mysterious infiu- 'ence of our great satellite. The light' Iof the moon, being reflected, has not the life-sustaining properties of direct light, and decay is therefore quicker. et also,has an injurious effect on the eyes, which leads to nervous excite- ment. • Another cause suggested is to be found in the waves of electricity Which are given off from the* moon. It Is possible that our bodies have magnetic sense, which responds to electric variations of the atmosphere induced by the light of the moon. Smallest Woman In the World. In America this year there is being exhibited for the first time Cynthia Margaret Niekloy, who, it is claimed, .is the smallest woman in the world. Her age is nineteen.; she is twenty- nine inches high in street garb, and weighs about twenty-five poundShe is known professionally as Princess Tiny Atom, and is seen in the side show of a circus. Princess Tiny Atom is the child of normal parents. Her father,who travelwith her, is six feet tall. Her mother, who has been dead several years, weighed 138 pounds. Tiny is the third of four children. All save her are normal. Her sister, who is two years her senior, weighed six and one-half pounds at birth, as did Tiny. Her sister grew normally, and now is five feet four inches tall and weighs 132 pounds. Tiny's' growth stopped in her fourth year, although her development was that of any normal girl. Save for her size, she is normal to -day in mind and body. There as nothing in her family tree togive science a theory as to her arrested growth,- Says the Illustrated World Magatine. Tiny Atom's mental development is that of any 19 -year-old girl, who has Sad a rather haphazard common school education. Her schooling did not start until she reached her 'teens. School boards did not care for her attendance, as it was claimed that her presence would distract the minds Of other scholars in the room. When Tiny sits in an ordinary chair, her feet do not extend to the edge of the seat, if she leans againat the back. She is fond of clothes, has a discriminating taste, and speaks glibly , of the "smartness" of the gowns' she wears. • This little wbman. always haseaten ordinary food, and she has never had a day's sickness. Of course, she has her owu special set of tableware, as she could hardly handle the knife, fork and spoon of an adult. In her stateroom on the circus train she has her own furniture, and her bed is a cunning little affair of brass.• - Minister's Sons Get Rich.

Reports reaching Peking indicate that the Japaneseareecarrying thines with a high hand in Manchuria now that the other Allied troops 'heel vir- tually out of the country, The Peking itied Tientsin Tines has recdived from its correspondents reports which it presents under the heading, "Reign of Terror is Manchuria." It says that at Imanpo two Russian workmen who made some disparsegng remarks about the Japanese Emperor in 'talk- ing to Et Japanese soldier in. the Rug- sian railway hospital were seized )ey Japanese aoldiers and fantminarily shot on the spot." At. Harbin, the paper says, Japanese sentries station- ed on a bridge threw one Russian or( the bridge, breaking his coilar-boae, and stabbed another in the !aloe with a bayonet when the -Ruisians insisted upon crossing the bridge. The Japanese are reported by the newspaper to have taken Alit posses- sion of Hailer, and arrested there 11. Russian workers and handed them over to the representative of Gen. Semenoff, and the Times adds that by this time "no doubt they have been shot by Baron Unger Steinberg." The Japanese are declared to have brought to Haller and armed 500\ Semenoff troops, who are'reported to be`a.ctively assisting thh Japaneseand helping to terrorize the local popu- lation. The Times predicts that aiil- lar incidents are likely to increase' as the Japanese hold of the 'Woolen tar East , becemes more intense, and states that the Japaneee garrison at Harbin is to be incteased by 1,000 more men. This reinforcement is de- clared by the paper to be 'absolutely unnecessary, "as the Chinese troops stationed there -are suffalent to main-, tein order." The situation along the • Chinese Eastern Railway was characterized,by the Timett correspondent as very critical. He stated than the Japanese military authorities, had decided to -place their own guards and, sentries along the whole stretch of the rail- way which crosses Upper Manchuria, because they were about to send troop trains and military supplies along that railway and were afraid the Russian railway workers who were opposed to Japanese inteeven- tion might try .to etop the Japanese from carrying out their plans. "The Japanese seem bent upon brewing trouble among the Russian population residing inside the railway area by giving them a series of pin- pricks so as to brtug about open strife which will give them an excuse to take determined action even to the seizing and\ working of the Chinese Eastern," wrote the correspondent. The correspondent admitted that the • Japanese had. the right to send troops over the railway to protect the fron- tiers against invasion, but that this did not confer the right to occupy settlements along the line, or inter- fere with the rights of local popula- tions. He declared that /he 'impose of the japanese to seise control the railway called for an immediate protest On the part of the Allies. , In Nikolsk, he reported, the rail- way workers -having gone on strike. Japanese soldiers wererounding them up and forcing them at the point of the bayonet to do the work of laborers. Since the foregoing situation was described, information has been made .public in Moscow that Chinese and Rus-Sianmilitary commissioners in conference at Verkhne-Udinsk, Trans- Baikalia, have reached an 'agreement tinder which "Inherent rights of the Russian. Government in the Eastern Manchurian Railway were recognized and the Chinese, guaranteed to with- draw their troops along the railway lines." It was pointed' out that China's possession of its road depriv- ed the Japanese of one of their best excuses for keeping troops on it. Oriental Women. Korean women'are forming an ex- clusively feminine corporation capi- talized.at 409,000 yen to buy and sell "clothing," lingerie and toilet acces- sories," according to an advertise- ment in the first issue of the new Korean daily, the Chosen Ilpo, just issued. None of the capital stock, di- vided Into 20,000 shares, will be sold - to any man. The enterprise' is re- garded by many as a move toward breaking down an antilent Korean tradition. The directors and all ether officials of the company, it is announced, will be women only and in addition to merchandise, the company will haere a sewing department. Its aim is said to be. "the promotion of the comfort of living and improvement of.Koreaat women in economic knowledge and experience." In Japan, cases of women success- fully conducting business are not rare. The head of the OwariYa Bank, one of the meet successful banking enterprises, was a woman who died leaving a large fortune to the cause of female education. The great Su- zuki- firm, which has a branch in Seoul,, is likewise.. headed by a wo- man. In. Seoul, iteelf, the Kepi Print- ing House and the Elmo Hotel are good examples of what women can do. While Japanese women are en- trusted by their husbands with the complete management of household affairs, the Korean woman generally loOks to her spouse to finance the home. • A Which -Is Different.

Ceughlin, of this place, was stolen from his crib to -day and the parents had eo trace of the whereabouts of the little boy late to.. night." The kidnappers entered a second - storey window by means of a lad- der, the • crime being committed about twd o'clock in the morning, says the Sun and New York Herald. From the hour of lit disappearance Blakely Coughlin has not been seen or heard from by any friend of his family, and his whereabouts to -day is as obscure a mystery as it was a month ago. Meanwhile several as- tonishing incidents have marked, the progress of the vain search made .fbr him. In this search Mr. and Mrs. Coughlin enlisted .not only the local policeand the State Constabulary, but also private detectives, lawyers and other counsellors. There ap- pears to have beeii. no unnecessary delay in starting the hunt for the child, nor is it suggested that any needed information has been with- held from the public Officers. A number of suseected persons were compelled to give accounts of their inovenients and otherwise the usual precautions, including the offering of a reward, were adopted. Two daysafter the kidnapping it became known that an offet to return, the ,child for ransom had been made to the Coughlins. On the Monday fol- lowing the crime Mts. Coughlin ap- pealed to theabductorsfor assurances that her child was being properly .tteated. On the same day a negress in Dallas, Texas, was found to be in possession of a white baby resembling the Coughlin chikl„ but apparently it has been decided this could not be the infant stolen from Norristown. Meantime Mr. and Mrs. Coughlin received a number of letters from strangers, some of them apparently from insane persons, others, incred- ible though it seems, from persons who sought to tunt their sorrow to a. jest by offering false clues to the hiding place of the child. Mr. Coughs lin let it be known he would deal with the kidnappers for the intern of his son if they would establish' good faith by sending him a photo- graph of the baby and one of his garments, and he promised. immunity to the criminals. The father indi- cated his willingness to pay $6,000 to the kidnappers. Mr. Coughlin. at first refused to discus the abduction publicly, but on Mxnelay, June 14th, he announced that after considerable correspondence with a man who writ- ing from Atlantic City, signet: him- seld "The Crank," an agreement had been reached under the terms of which the stolen indent was to be returned .after 4112,000 in bills had; lEieen paid to his captors. Mr. Cough- lin had previously said $6,000 was all he could raise, but under the circum- stances he was able to get the addi- tional money. Iltie $12,006 was deposited. at the agreed upom spot on Monday night, a friend accompanying Mr. Coughlin on this errand. The understanding was that the baby would be returned his home before three o'clock Tues- -day afternoon.' The money was taken from the spot where Mr. Conghlin left it, but the baby was not returned and Mr. Cotighlin on Wednesday let it become known that he had. been swindled either by the kidnappers or by persons who took advantage of, his anxiety to prey on him. This is a strange detail in the Case, providing a mystery within the original mys- tery. The authors of 'the letters, which led \to this transaction are said to have disclosed an intimate knowl- edge of the Cpughlin house and family, such as( might be possessed by an inquisitive servant. Immediately after this incident oe- k curred steps were taken to raise a fund of $50,000 for a natioit wide hunt for the baby. Contributions to this fund have been made by many citizens of Norristown. The author- ities have kept up their search for the kidnappers, the Philadelphie, police now taking a hand and beginning to look for the recipient of the $12,000. It turned out that the numbers of the bills delivered to the blackmailer by Mr. Coughlin had been taken by one of his friends, and. these were given to the police. Some of the money was in one hundred dialer bills and fifty dollar bills issued by the National Bank of Lancaster, the First National Bank Of Norristown, the Snow Hill National Bank. The sealoch continues, but the authorities are not willing to disclose any of the facts they have recently obtained. Almost 95 per 'cent. of its inhab- itants live within, one-third of the area of China with a density of pop-. .ulation of about 200 "to the square mile. The Rider of the King Log Continued from Page 7 'Distrust the Greeks bearing gifts.' Again pardon me, Mr. Marthorn! I sound as if I were trying to parade some' of my Manor Verona acquire- ments." In spite of her resolution, prior to this interview, to hold a poise to match that of a Marthorre, she found herself putting ugly emphasis on -the name -of the school, and she stared straight at him as if hoping that he would betray some of his family attitude which had humiliated her in the past. "Just a moment, please! Your talk is of business, YOU Say? I will use the hard words and, short terms which belong to the subject. Were you told to come to me with a message from your direc- tors?" "N6!" "What then?" "1 deinfanded and obtained the right to notify the independents along thenider regarding certain pro- jects planned by the Teraiscouata people It's a stretching of their granted privileges. I feel that the deal nisty prove to be a little raw un- less the other folks are properly warned in time to act for their own protection. 'My stand may seem to be quixotic. .nly father thought so. I cannot say that the directors agreed • with any egthusiasm to let me have my way. But I maintain that the aboveboard principle in ally, matters is the best policy." And then, because Clare Kavanagh was not mistress of hypocrisy, but • was merely a girl with much unruly human nature in her, _he knew that she was mutely and ,scornfully tell- ing him than an elopement, a secret marriage, a scandal, and a mystery hardly agreed with his profession of aboveboard principles in all matters. He flushed and shifted his gaze to the fire in the Franklin grate beside' her. ' She, apparently, found the silence very effective and did not break it. His anger at his oven discomposure deepened the color on his face. .1-rer realized more keenly than ever before how much he was at a disad- vantage. The impulse of chivalry had started him forth on a mission to protect her and -others; but he re- alizel that ha, must appear to her o be a cheap and smirched' and tawdry knight. Her honest, maiden- ly contempt was apparent. "Miss Favanagt, I'm in an intol- erable, position! I know what your looks meant just now when I talked about being abeveboard. I have let the world—even my own family— think what they would about' a cer- tain- matter!, - You must under- stand—" She interruttort impatiently. "1 . take no inrerest in the matter." "But you are. not 'giving me a square deal in your mind, Miss Kava- nagh! Because you don't understand one matter you're not willing to ac- cept my help itt another thing." • She rose suddenly and took two steps towatd- him. 4‘Mr. Marthorn, I don't care to hear you betray your. compantes interests." She started around the table, but he leaped to the door and set his back against it; he was no longer awldvaed a* confused, His face was white, "I think we may match each other /in mutual lack of interest ill) each other's private butiness," he stated, frigidly, meeting her angry eyes with stare as scornful as her own. "But as to the businese which concerns the men you're trying to protect, I'm going to say something—and you're going to listen—and you are going to act, or else you'll be a traitor to the X. K. Not one word now, Miss Kavanagh!" She was about to speak and he put up his hand. "Don't you presume to telt me again that I'm betraying the Temiscouata. I'll ac- cept no insults from anybody when I'm on straight business! I'm talking to you because you're in position to protect interests that are threat- ened. You 'go hire the best hydraulic engineer you can find—and Ant him quickly. You hire a nod lawyer. Get those men up here and onto their jobs. Let them come to me for a confereece. I am empowered to make compromises. If you will delegate authority to them it will not be nec- essary for you to wound your feelings by coming into frequent personal con- tact with me. If you do not discover that I'm doing all this to get. an honest deal for all on the river, your wilfulness will be, answerable. I give you twarning that professionally I am for the Temiscodata! Biet tell your la*fer to hurry and put injunc- tions on my operations at Grindstone, at Ebeemah, and at Whirlingstone. Otherwiee I may heat you out before the courts can give a final decision en the disputed rights. That's all, Miss Kavanagh! I'm sorry because our conversation strayed outside bus- iness bounds for a few moment." He opened the door for her and stoal aside. "Good evening!" She bowed and stepped quickly into the hall; when she was a little way down the corridor she hesitated. But she did not turn her head and, after a moment, went on to her room. When she walked past him he was entertaining no more illusions re- garding Miss Kavanagh's opinion of him. The excuses that he had made for her before• did not apply in this instance. Topics had jostled one an- other rather rudely during this inter- view; he stood in the hall and tried to remember just how much of a fool he had been in trying to blurt that -confession of that adventure into matrimony. The voice of • the. ac- cordion minstrel was still raised in song; he was repeating the ballad of Lord Lovell for the delectation of the insistent Mr. Wallin. The minstrel had been apart..sevetal times with Mr. Wallin on a mysterious mission and had become very vociferous. Ken- neth, in the hall, could hear the words plainly: "Lord Lovell he came to the cast-tul's gate, And they asked of him who was there. And says he: `What ho! I cannot wait, For I'm come for the Led-ee Clare.' "Ow! He was , bo-uld as bo-tild could be, And she was trul-ee to see. She had robes so rare and gold to spare, And he wanted to wed. with the Lad-ee Clare!" "Bold, eh?" muttered the young man. "He had more courage ,than good judgment." He tramped into the big room to gee his pack and to find out what chamber Mr. Dolan had assigned for his lodgment. "Find her all -right, according as I said?" inquired Mr. Pratt, pleasantly. Young Kezar swung around in his chair and regarded Kenneth with I venomous expression. "Yes, sir, and much obliged to f you." , "No thanks needed. I got strict orders from her to -day. to bring , straight to her any man who wants to see her on business." "And that's why she'll be finding you loading onto her all the: jewelry Western University London, Ontario eArts and Sciences Medicine Fail Term Opens October 4th FOR INFORMATION AND.CALENDAR WRITE K.

"Why don't you rite your judgment, Pratt, if you have itn.yt" "I haven't much. So be saving of it. Miss Kavanagh has plenty and to sptre—and she's a good judge of when a Man is obeying strict orders." He did not point that rebuke by look- ing at Kezar. "I have a few orders of my own. to give out as field boss of the X. "For instance?" invited Mr. Pratt, meekly. "I'll do my talking when there ar less outsiders standing around stick ing their noses into our private busi- ness." Kenneth smiled down into 'the flam- ing face of the boss. It was a radi- ant, discomposing smile. Marthorn smiled in spite of his inwerd feelings. There was„ a taunt in the smile. There was the complacent expression Dancing and Music The ismotional side of the 11141001. ley of People cannot be winded by Pres- dilboiries, Gymnasium, Pkiir grounds, 43ft.

"That is, unless Bats Kezar is willing to swap witlnyog! He got along first and drew twenty-three." "Oh, on no account will I 'disturb Mr. Kezar," declared Kenneth, amiably going to the hook for his pack. "Un- doubtedly Mr. Kezar finds that the room just suits him—twenty-three!" He dwelt with ironic significance on the number which slang has made familiar. "Any elur in that?'" dernandtel Kezar, With heat. "Not unless you are over -sensitive and choose to see one." 'Werth= was crossing the room and faced a- bout. "Persontally I'm in favor of postponing that little matter 'betweers us until—well, to some time when I'm not so infernally sleepy," he went OIL "I'M sure we shall be able to get to- gether.on it very soon. Is putting it off till we can settle it ri#Iit' all agreeable td you?" "Come; along with your business— any timer "Thank you so much!" purred Kenneth;.then he followed the hired man who preceded with the guiding beacon of a lighted lamp. Kezar turned on Pratt. "Do you still tell me that you do not know what his business -was with Miss Kavanagh?" "Kindly refer back to what I have Already told you and let it standat that," replied Mr. Pratt, his temper ruffled. "I usually stick to oiae story - when it's the truth and if my memory is working all right. However, what that tohoot there is singing may have some bearing on the ease. He may have inside hints!" The droning minstrel was in' the midst of this verse: "Lord Lovell he said on, his bended knee: `My love I now declare. Will you wed with me?' `Oh yes,' said she, Then he kissed the Lad-ee Clare." • Kezar, having rage to relieve and picking out what seemed to be a safe object, walked to the singer and snapped fingers under. the man' nose. "Quit that lallylooing!" The astonished songster choked himself off in the middle of the chorus and, by gesture and mute query in demeanor referred to him to his mentor who was straddling the other end of the bench. "What in the name of the jumped- up americaneezus do you mean by kicking in on my own private person- al music?" demanded Mr. Wallin, holding pose with conducting fore- finger upraised. - "He's bawling Miss Kavanagh% name. I won't have any more of "'S that so?" inquired Mt. "Wallin, vinously truculent: "Lemme inform you that MY private personal singer is obeying my orders and is singing about Miss Clare P. Tucker, a lady frien' o' mine. I'm Lord Lovell in the song. And you're no frien' of mine. Yell asked me to waste a per- fectly good Indian that I'm saving up." He rose from the bench and hitched the sleeves of his wool jacket up along hairy arms. - "Do you think you're going to stop me from hearing _Clare P. Tucker sung about in a genteel way?" "You are insulting Miss Kavanagh. She must be hearing it." - "The Colleen Cleve, God bless her noble heart, ain't putting on coats that don't fit her," shouted Wallin. "That's mere than I can say for some. of her understrappers! You are a—" He broke off suddenly; Clare had stepped into the room. "Beg pardon, m arm!" he muttered, pulling down his sleeves. "You need not do so, warden. You have not offended me—not in any way." Her tone was crisp; she show- ed: the Kavanagh abruptness. "Mr. Dolan, will you be good enough to askMr. Marthorn, if he i$ down be- fore I am irt the morning, to wait till I can have a talk with him?" "Yessum! 'Twill be tended to, Miss Kavanagh."
