"We propose to organize a cor poration to operate a large cat ranch near Denver, where land can be purchased cheap for that pur pose. "To star:, with, we will collect one thousand cats. Each cat will aver age twelve kittens a year. The skins will sell from ten cents for the white ones to seventy-five cents lor the pure black. We Will have about twelve mll'ion skins to sell at an average of thirty cents a piece, making our revenue about $10,000 per day, gross. "A man can skin fifty cat3 n day; he will charge $2.00 a day for his labor; it will take about one hundred men to operate the ranch there, the profit will be about $0, 800 a day. “We will feed the cats on rats, and Will start a rat ranch adjoin ing the cat ranch.

COPELAND, M. D. U. S. Senator from New York. (Former Commtaaioner o} Health, New York City. yy EFORE the baby is born, all ■y its nourishment comes from j the mother. The blood from her heart, purified in her lungs, j supplies the needs of the' child. ' Not untiJ the baby is born and "on its o w n,” does the infant make use of its own lungs. An anxious time is that half minute after a baby’s birth! The a't tendante are on tiptoe, waiting for that expected cry from the infant It is a moment like David or old experienced when he 1 demanded news of his son, "Is the young man Absalom safe?" When the welcome cry is heard, every* body feels that the baby is safe. Independent life for the Infant be rms when the air cells open the first lime. Sometimes the newly bom suffer from their failure to di late. This Is true of weak, puny, undernourished Infanta. They have not enough vitality to draw In the air necessary to open the lungs. Older children may suffer from a serious ailment known aa collapse ct the lunge. Anything that Interferes with the free passage of air Into the finer tubes and air cells of the lunge, may result in collapse of that por I tlon of the lung. Many times I have teld you of the dangers faced by a child who has a cold, with bronchiai Involvement. This la particularly true of the feeble, weak youngster. But any child might have one of the small branches of the bronchial tubes plugged by a pellet of mucus. Such a plug might act as a valve, permitting air to pass and none to enter that part of the lung. Or a plug of mucus could ef fectively close the lube. Mien It te only a question of time when the air behind It Is absorbed. Very sooa the lung will collapse. There are cases in older persona where paralysis of the muscular equipment of the hing occurs. Col lapse of part or all oi the lung fol lows. , In measles, whooping eough, in 1 fluensa. In any condition producing : broncho pneumonia, this unpleasant complication may appear. 'Wounds of the chest wall, with perforation, tnay cause the same trouble. My purpose In speaking of lung collapse is more to warn aga'nst it than anything else. There is little to do for it if it actually takes place. But plenty can be dons to prevent It. An infant ano young child tbould be guarded against colds. Their care should be such that resistance to infection is high as possible. bYosh air. sunlight, cleanliness, nour ishing food, regular habits—tn these are found the surest means of guard- ! lug against colds and. for that mat ter, against nil other diseases. It was all right for Topsy to "just grow.” But we want our babies brought tip in the best possible manner. Today Is the time to begin. | Answers to Health Queries] Mrs. M.

When the window curtains ot the big stores are closely drawn in the evening the scene is being shifted, as every one knows. The display department is busy rearranging the offerings, so that next day the lat est fashion will be Shown in some alluring setting. The experts have been having a harder time than us ual in the last few months, how ever, trying to do justice to the new dresses because the big dolls that have been in use for the past few years arc not built to display the frocks of 1930. Humans are not the only ones who have to take stock of waist lines and develop elegance, although they have an advantage over the window figures, which are made of unmalleable materials. As a result of the caprice of fashion, the workhouse again real figures are being modeled this time, with the lines and proportions of a star show' girl. Tire are sur prising in their likeness to the ideal girl, especially when compared to the old forms, which were obviously Just clothes racks with fantastic faces and bodies. Those creations, seen so much in recent years, have been characterized by their lack of ! resemblance to natural figures. Tire aim of window-dressing, of course, is to make the passing crowd stop and look not necessar ily to make them admire, nor agree, but to put something there that will cause them to notice the arti cles the store offers for sale. The limitations is, however, that the ar ticle must be presented in a desir able light. One may be fantastic or foreign, but never undignified. Hence the hurry to put waist lines that have to fill out the new dresses. One style trend'ef today seen on the new models is to mold the hair on the original statue so that it is part of the cast. Afterward it is painted. It was five years after bob bed hair came into vogue before the bobbed-hair dress figure be came widespread. ABANDONED TUNNEL WANTED KX NO ONE Seattle —Anyone wanting a second-hand tunnel, two and two thirds miles long, can probably buy one in this state for a song. It cost between $2,000,000 and I $3,000,000 new but no one can be round now' to claim ownership of it The tupnel was built by the Great Northern railroad In th? nineties and abandoned last year upon completion of the new eight - mile bore under the Cascades be tween Seattle and Spokane. The road denied ownership when a Seattle motorist, during short lived use of the hole as a substitu te highway for Stevens pass, became stalled in It. The rail company claimed title had reverted to the forest service. The Northern Pacific road. o.t whose corporate doorstep the tunhe) is located, denies owning it and the two counties it connects don't want it. The state highway department has had both ends of the tunnel boarded up to prevent injury to motorists due to poor ventilation and in this condition it will stand until its legal owner can be deter mined; Could Have Avoided Years of Suffering MRS, G.

Hagerstown, Md.—After a quarter of a century as the official weather observer of Washington county, J. A. Miller of Keedysville has gone on record as being one of the few men in Western Maryland who have served that length of time in a government position without re ceiving a penny for his service. And although he is convinced that Uiere is no fortune for him at the end of the ‘weather rainbow,” he is Just as much interested in his work to day as he was twenty-five years ago. The ‘‘weather racket” has ‘got him.” ‘‘As a matter of fact, the job was looking for a nice home in 1904,” he said. ‘‘It had been kicked around that section of the county so long that really I felt sorry for it. It was originally located in Boonsboro, but the observer at that point was too busy to keep statistics. Then it passed on down the county and after a few months at that location was again ‘on the market,’ so I took it and have been busy ever since.” Mr. Miller is beseiged with tele phone calls when the clouds “liak” and the rivers and smaller streams go out of banks; when Old %>1 does his stuff the telephone operator notes an increase in business, and when the snow falls the same situa tion prevails.
