NOW it, is the Russian soviet .government, which rumor says, 1ms a gas invisible and odorless, penetrating the pores of the skin, destroying the cells and paralyzing the nervous system and t lie heart. This pleasant gas, it seems, can be scattered by bombs from uirplanes; it remains active for a long time and may be spread by the wind a long distance. No" known gns mask is pro tection against it. Only u soapy liquid sprayed from an airplane above the gassed area has any effect. This liquid causes the gas to decompose and robs it of its poisonous qualities. It seemed as if the last word in poison gasses had been perfected long since, but now it appears likely that the cheery custom of keeping government scientists at work in this realm of research will continue in all lands. The announcement of the discovery of such a horror in one country inspires other countries to do just a little better or worse and the idiotic rivalry goes on. f another disarmament conference is called, an agreement to eliminate poison gas would be very much in order.

Deimrtmcnt of Agriculture A says Hint lit the present time all agencies in the United States are planting less than 4(I,(X)0 acres of young forests a year, in spite of the fact that there are in this country 81,000,000 acres of denuded forest land needing replanting. In the meantime Japan is planting more than 350,000 acres of oung forests every year. It is only popular to compare military and naval statistics. Yet forest statistics are more important than many Americans realize. There aro many reasons for taking the forest situation seriously. One is the need of a continuous crop of timber. Another is the pro tection of tlie wiitcr-shcds of navigable rivers. Others concern pro tection of the soil, beaut if ication of highways and otherwise barren rcgibns and preservation of many .forms of natural life depending upon trees and forests for their normal existence.

Jazz artists are using the saw as a musical instrument, and listeners may yet find a new use for the axe. Mere infatuation doesn't last long, but there is no cure for real love, except marriage. An old-timer is one who can remember when that kind of stories were told in smoking cars instead of magazines. Correct this sentence: "I'm glad those people moved in next door," said she; "the man plays a cornet." A million years of slow and painful evolution resulting at. last in man, whose ambition is to do a hole in one. CROSS-WORD PUZZLE STORY OUR COW, . , She has This is 1-2-3-4-5 our covf.

JKH (ilNOKR, says tho earth is flat, it's fixed, and naught ean move it, and be will bet bis Sunday hat that, be ean amply prove it. He's always talking on this theme, and many men who meet him inform him that, he's in a dream, and scorn fully they greet him. And they insist the earth is round, al though the poles are flatter; they stand and argue and expound hedge, and whoop in earnest fashion; and Jake, whoso temper the tilings that do not matter. They lean against a fence or has an edge, soon flies into a passion. And soon there is a vul gar scrap, damaged map, and some one's nose is broken. An other has a twisted neck, a fourth one's teeth are shattered; and all this scene of gore and wreck for things that never mattered. e (finger called to me tonight. "The earth is flat as blazes;" I assured him he was right, in calm and courtly phrases. I , "I never took a walk on planets any flatter," and miss a of foolish talk, while friendlv words T scatter. T do not argue this or that with any human being; when Jake insists the earth is flat, I'm prompt in my agreeing. And if he said the earth is sipinre, or shaped much like a wiener, I would not rise and paw the air with truculent demeanor. For argument is waste of time, and swapping oaths is folly, and pulling whis kers is a crime that makes men melancholy. J a! am say lot 6 Overland 4 Touring .

Hut the huslmml who makes his wife put up with the criticism of the in laws Is my notion of the mean est : man. Looking at this problem from the hnek dour -tho point from which the doctor niways views life I should say thut the Khi who contemplates mar riage wltli the kind of man that Is likely to stand for any such thing: In his home, would he wise to keep up the contemplation indefinitely or un til tlniproRpective in laws are all dead or In jail. Listen to this plaintive plea from n k11 who apparently not into an aw- iul nest of in laws: "Dear Doctor: "Will you kindly express your opinion on the followiiiR: "I maintain that clabber ndlk. 1 onions, saner krnut. cheese of all kinds, 8k ins of baked potatoes, etc., are all good food. The in laws eye me with scorn and ak Why I don't collect the parbupe In the neighborhood since it costs nothing, so we could live very cheaply. "My family as well as myself are lavish in the use of towels, wash cloths and the like, and I also helleve that the baby's dia pers should not be Just dried and used over again without washing. Here the in laws claim that I must have a kind of mania for work: they declare that Ishould restrict each member of my family to ono towel an done wash cloth a week and wash only that much, . 'Are my in laws right when they say that the wearing of rub ber soled gyni shoes all day on gymnasium day In school will cause sore eyes? "MRS. ' Of course tho in laws are alsolutely wrong on all three counts. They are always wrong, of course. But where is th? little Jjunny while all this is go ing on the little rabbit who essayed tho role of friend husband, the brave youth who promised something about clinging to his wife and pitching ev erybody else to a warmer climate if need be? Even if a husband hasn't enough tenderness toward his wife to prompt htm to protect her from the lawless in laws, he should at least have enough gumption and self re spect to resent that Boft of interfer ence in his homo life. There is a way to be tho best of friends with the in laws If they are not hopelessly ignorant or narrow and, yet make them understand quite clearly that they're gonna get the gate In a hurry the moment they attempt to overstep the boundary of friend ship. Home times the best medicine one can administer to an in law who is careless about that is banishment from the household.. She'll come back in good time and he a more livable sort when she has had a good think for (herse.lf. I sy she, though quite as often the lawless in law is a he. This may seem a little outside of my province, more in the pastor's line perhaps, but as a matter of fact the behavior of these in laws has an im portant hearing on the health of a family, and besides, I'm afraid the pastor won't speak out plainly enough. In the halcyon days when travel was a luxury of the well to do, a lot of young people solved the in law problem by simply moving a few hun dred miles away to live. Henry Ford spoiled that, and somebody should now establish a short course in the amenities dr propinquity or get out some neat little volumes of hints tQ the in laws which bride and groom might present to the prospective respective in lawn. QUESTIONS ANT ANSWERS Occupational Poisoning My work consists of hardening steel by treating it in a pot of cyanide at a heat of 1500 and quenching It in oil or water. I inhale tho fumes of th cyanide both in heating and quenching.. .Will this harm me? (W. R. W.) Answer I am not su9e what you mena by cyanide. If it is cymion. inhalation of the fumes is harniTtil, even fatnl in concentration. Small quantities produce nausea, m.adaehe, vertigo ir dizziness, and if you are exposed every day for a considerable period perhaps gastritis, albuminuria and serious disturbances of the heart. Wherever such work must be done there should be specinl veltilatlon equipment, blowers or exhause 'ducts, to carry away the fumes. Rid a Hike Is It healthful and safe for girls 9 to 14 years of age t ride the bicycle? Before giving my Bisters such appar ently beneficial articles for fun and exercise I want to be assured no harm ful result is likely. S. L. E.) Answer Go on and get the bikes. It is always healthful for boys or girls of any age to ride the bike, though us to safety, that of course depends on traffic conditions where they rWe. I am not unmindful of the various im aginary evils ascribed to bicycle rid ing when I assure you that It la always a healthful pastime. But I do nut menn to say that races or long runs are advisable.
