Professor Vofonoff has made old
men seem younger with the help of
monkey glands, has made science
take him seriously.
Now he prbposes to create sup-
ermen, such as Nietsche dreamed
of, by using animal glands on
young children of exceptional tal
ent. He believes that he will create
fenius such as eafth never saw, in
the children of children thus treat
ed. The old-fashioned will believe
that, if monkeys could' help create
fmer m'eh, Nature and wise Provi
dence would have called on the
monkeys long ago.
Also a race of supermen is just
what the world does NOT want.
Tall men like short women, thin
women admire fat men, genius
marries mediocrity, all proof that
Nature wants us to march along
side by side about even, not a few
far ahead of the others, or riding
on the backs of inferiors.
Those that run risks today will
have contributed to absolute safe
Eying in the future. Lindbergh
says flying overland with a good
pilot and machine is safer now
than automobiling.
Better machines will soon make >
ocean flights as simple and safe
as a flight over the English Chan
nel, for which Northchffe, a few
years ago, offered a $50,000 prize.
Moving pictures show Lionel
Barrymore holding the red-hot
branding iron, Aileen Pringle pro
viding the snow-white shoulder
and quivering flesh to which the
“red-hot” iron will be applied.
Thousands, shuddering at this
branding, will, hardly realize that
such torture would have been con
sidered natural a few years ago.
Men were skinned alive, impal-d
on sharp shafts and left dying for
hours. 'At the time of Henry the
Second, a workman was branded
on the cheek with a hot iron, if
without permission he left his par
ish to find work in another.
Those Henry the Second work
men may comfort united qoal mine
workers of America, forbidden by
court injunction to interfere with
the Pittsburgh Terminal Coal Cor.
poration's open shop.
That injunction and others like
it will do a good deal to make
unions powerless. But it isn't as
bad as being branded for going
out of your parish to look for
work. We do improve, although
slowly.
Near Riverton, Wyoming, Ted
Lee killed 115 rattlesnakes with a
shovel.
Rattlesnakes rely entirely on
poison and conceit, which makes
it easy to destroy them. So jluth
those that pervert truth in history,
religion, or otherwise. They rely
on a poison which is not reliable,
and are disposed of easily.

thin layer and stirred occasionally to
allow the escape of the Formaldehyde

The color light type is considered
a distinct advance in algnal practice
since the same indications are used
both day and night. As there is no
merchanism to get out of order, ths
color light signal Is less subject to
failure than other types. Another ad
vantage is that the lights are placed
