Never sold In bulk. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind and Renewal and Would Mean Physical Immortality. "The last enemy that shall be de stroyed Is death," 6ald the Scriptures, yet If some man attempted seriously to reassert this ancient truth today we would look upon him as a mad prophet Indeed. Yet the time will come when men will be able to believe this prom ise of the Bible, although they may never see it literally fulfilled. Death some day will be acknowl edged to be as unnatural in the econ omy of the creative plant as are sin and suffering. But whether or not in some millennium period mortal man will be able to forego the gross proc ess of physical dissolution in becom ing a spiritual body is a purely meta physical question that does not enter here. What does interest us is the question, occupying the greatest scien tific minds today, whether the body as such cannot be retained in perfect con dition indefinitely. William A. Hammond, one of the great authorities, answers it by say ing, "There is no physiological reason why man should die." Thomas J. Allen, M. A., LL. D., writ ing in a similar strain, says: "The hu man body is not like a machine which must wear out by constant disintegra tion, for it is self renewing. It is a simple, scientific fact that we get an entirely new body every few years, estimated at from three to seven. Everr day is a birthday, for the proc ess of waste and renewal never ceases Terfect balance betwen elimination and renewal would avoid permanent waste." There is no doubt that when we be come more enlightened and understand perfectly the laws that govern and de termine our physical lives and when we conform to these religiously life will be immeasurably prolonged. The decay of the body as evidenced In old age is unnatural. The aesthetic within us recoils in merely contemplat ing Its approach. We feel that there must be something self perpetrative in the change when the strong color in a healthy man and the fresh beauty in a pure woman take their departure, when the bloom on the cheeks fade, when the brilliant light within the eyes grows dim and the full, red lips become pale and fallen. Medical science has pointed out the physiological cause of these conditions. Probably the time will come when it will be able to point out the manner of avoiding them. We know that the body grows old be cause of the existence of an imperfect balance between the waste which, the body accumulates and the amount it is able to throw off. During youth the balance Is perfect, because the body has more than its normal vitality and strength to throw off the waste matter, but as we grow older this perfect bal ance becomes destroyed from one cause or another. The strength that should go to eliml natlng impurities from the body is not husbanded, but rather squandered in different ways. Then, too, we eat and drink those things that cause excessive waste. An impure diet composed of foods containing uric acid,1 such as meat, or of drinks containing poisons, such as tea and coffee, taxes the eliml natlve powers, and when the time comes when these give way a state of Imperfect elimination has set In, and the wastes In part are deposited in the sys tern, settling in the arteries and joints nt thp hodv and accumulating until they become obstructive elements, The blood stream circulates imper fectly, and when once this condition exists bad functioning of every organ of the body results, and old age and death gradually ensue. Mind, too, has a great deal to do in hastening or retarding the unpleasant sicns of physical decay. Mental sci ence has satisfactorily demonstrated that mean, narrow, selfish and unpleas tfnt thoughts act destructively on the tissues of the body, while thoughts of a wholesome and positive character act constructively. And when the curtains of "the win dows of the soul" are drawn, when the temple's door is closed and a final si lence is within, when the spirit passes the threshold to take up a newer and finer edifice of its own creation, science assures us that the body lives on. Here at least physical immortality is an assured fact. Theology has irreligiously taught us that the body returns to inanimate dust The religious answer of science is that it returns to God. The latest word in the field of biology is that aU nature, including the all mother soil, Is animated and hallowed with the di vine principle of life. More than this, matter is indestructl ble and eternal. There Is not an atom that can be lost in all the universe. For this reason our bodies do not really die. They are In the care of the angels of the elements. The peculiar cellular arrangement that formed them Into a beautiful body may be caused to disintegrate through the action of the oxygen upon it, time may change the position of the atoms composing It, but the latter still con tain within themselves the sacred and eternal principle of life as much as does the soul, and they exist only to enter Into new and perhaps more beau tiful combinations of life. Health. c.w. h Woman's Life Couldn't Recall Who Told It. "I heard a very funny story the other night about Horace Walpole," said Mrs. Blake. "I wish I could remember i who told it Henry, can you remem i ber? Was it Mr. Sellers?" "No," said Blake stiffly; "It wasn't ! Sellers." I "I wonder if It could have been Mr. ' Windsor?" "No," repeated Blake; "It wasn't Windsor." Before Mr. Blake had a chance to ex press an affirmative or negative opin ion of that hazard as to the source of the Walpole anecdote Mr. Barton came in. Mrs. Blake, being by that time sure of herself, tried on him her rec ipe for winning universal affection. "Oh, Mr. Barton," she said, "I am very glad to see you. I have hardly I stopped laughing since I saw you tne last time." Mr. Barton, a cadaverous man with solemn eyes, looked rather foolish. "Indeed?" he said. "May I ask wnai about?" Over that funny story you tola . I J rn about Horace waipoie," saw Blake. 'M.m-mTTnrnoe WalDole? stam mered Mr. Barton. "I am afraid you must have cot me mixed up with some body else. I don't know tne nrsi tning about Horace Walpole, and If I did know anything funny about him I couldn't tell it To tell a funny story Is beyond my powers. Even If It was funny to start with it wouldn't be by the time I got through with it." Mrs. Blake's spirits were somewhat dashed by her fiasco in finding an owner for the Walpole story, but she bore up courageously, and later when Mr. Markham came in she drew him out of earshot of Mr. Barton and dilat ed on the pleasure his story of Horace Walpole had given her. Mr. aiarKuam was not cast in the funeral mold that gave to Mr. Barton his grave aspect but he protested himself totally inca pable of telling a funny story about Horace Walpole or anytuing eise. Presently Mrs. Blake left the room to prepare the sandwiches. Mr. Blake followed her. "For the love of the Lord," he said. "don't make a fool of yourseir again bv trying to get some other idiot in there to father that Walpole story. I told vou that yarn myself. Mrs Blake stood still, witn carving knife Doised in air. "You?" she said incredulously. "Ana it wns so clever too. Jew xors Times. A FRIGHT Going Up In a Balloon and Com ing Down In a Parachute. THE AGONY OF A FIRST TRIP A CHEMICAL FURY. Fluorine Is a Rabid Gas That Nothing Can Resist. The fury of the chemical world is the element fluorine, although, strange ly enough, it exists peacefully in com pany with calcium in fluorspar and also in a few other compounds. Although this element was known and named a good while ago. It long resisted the efforts of chemists to iso late It that is, prepare it in a pure state, unmixed chemically with other substances for the instant the com pound containing it was torn apart the free fluorine attacked and combined with whatever substance composed the vessel containing it It was finally isolated by the great French chemist Moissan. Fluorine Is a rabid gas that nothing can resist It combines with all met als, explosively with some, or if they are already combined With some other nonmetallic element it mercilessly tears them awav from It and takes them to itself. In uniting with sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium ana aluminium the metals become heated, even to red ness, by the fervor of Its embrace. Iron fillings slightly warm burst Into brilliant scintillations when exposed to It Manganese does the same. Even the noble metals, which at melting heat proudly resist the fascinations of oxygen, succumb to this chemical siren at moderate temperatures. Glass is devoured at once and water ceases to be water by contact with this gas. which, combined with its hydro gen, at the same moment forms tne acrid, glass dissolving hydrofluoric acid and liberates ozone. Even hydrofluoric acid eats Into and destroys every known substance ex cept platinum and lead. Exchange. Experience and Sensations of an Ac robat Who Took the Place of a Pro fessional Aeronaut In an Emergency. The Dash Through Space. t rno nront mi in a balloon and came down in a parachute. Someth:. j went wrong, and all the ir-ouf-y in Hie ; world doubled would not induce me to j make the experiment again. One grows strangely accustomed to dangers as an acrobat and when it was suggested that I should earn $25 In as many minutes by taking the place of a parachutist who had fallen ill at the last minute I jumped at the chance. It was at a large country fair. The laughing crowd had probably never seen a balloon go up. As the great silk bag gradually swelled a silence fell upon the onlookers. The sick parachutist's manager pat ted me on the back and said it was money easily earned. I agreed then. "Keep cool," he said, "and, whatever you do, don't look down except to Judge your distance from the earth. You see that tower? It Is about a thousand yards away. When you are that distance up pull the check string and shut your eyes." A dull murmur rose as the ropes were cast off and I felt my feet leave the ground. The upward movement was gentle, and a great cheer came up to me until the band drowned it I hardly heard the cheering or the band. The involuntary murmur sun rang in my ears. Perhaps my nerves were upset, possibly it was intuition, but from the moment I was drawn up from the ground I felt the conviction that grim trouble lay ahead. Ignoring the oft repeated Instruc tions, I looked down. How slowly the balloon went up! Could it be possible that 1 had not gone more than a hun dred vards? The giant overhead be came a living thing, intent on tortur Ing the puny mortal who had trusted his life to it I knew I dared not leap before I was high enough, for the par achute takes 100 feet sometimes to open. I shut my eyes and tried to count to kill time, but the figures became jum bled, and I looked down again. A swallow skimmed past underneath, Far below there was a sea of upturned faces, and the music floated up dis tinctly. The balloon seemed to have stopped rising, and for an eternity tried to gauge the height Again the band stopped, and l was in a silent world. The crowd of breathless specks far beneath was get ting full value for its money. The only noise I heard was the beating of the blood through my head. I was afraid. It was the first real fear I had ever felt in my work. When the supreme moment came I pulled the string without realizing what I was doing. What years I lived in those next few seconds. An appalling nausea and a wild desire to live came with the first terrible rush, and my heart stood still as I looked eagerly aloft. The ropes of the parachute had twisted, and I was falling to instant death. Grasping the ropes in a clutch of steel, 1 shook them frantically. Half the huge parachute bellied out with a noise like a pistol shot, and the spued of the fall was lessened with a jar. Again I shook the death trap. The ropes were siming at a snan s pace. and bit by bit the parachute was open ing. Still I fell far too fast I could not breathe, and my hands seemed to be refusing to hold on. Bang! The last fold had opened out and I was saved. Dizzy and numb with fear. I held on tightly, wonder ing whether I should faint before I touched the 'ground. That and that only, was my thought as I sailed through the space. I had almost lost consciousness when my feet touched the ground gently. And then I col lapsed.
