The Human Electrical Forces!
How They Control the Organs
of the Body.
The electrical force of the human body as
the nerve fluid may be termed is an espe-
cially attractive department of science as it
exerts so marked an influence on the health
ot the organs of the body. Nerve force is
produced by the brain and conveyed by
means of the nerves to the various organs of
the body thus supplying the latter with the
vitality necessary toin-
sure their health. The
pneumogastric nerve as
shown here may be said
to be the most important
of the entire nerve sys-
tem as it supplies the
heart lungs stomach
bowels etc. with the
nerve force necessary to
keep them active and
healthy. As will be seen
oy the cut the long nerve
descending from th e
base of the brain and
terminating in the bow-
els is the pneumogastric.
wlilie the numerous lit-i
tie branches supply thel
heart lungs and stom-]
ach with necessary vi-
tality. When the brain
becomes in any way dis-
ordered by irritability
or exhaustion the nerve
force which it supplies
is lessened and the or-
gans receiving the di-
minished supply are con-
sequently weakened.
Physicians generally fail to recognize
he importance of this fact but treat the
rgan itself instead of thecause of the trouble
Che noted specialist Franklin Miles M. D.
L. 8. has given the greater part of his life
to the study of this subject and the prin< ip
discoveries concerning it areduetohisetfert

“Grace Greenwood” Speaks.
Certain national differences were
impressed upon me rather painful-
ly at a certain matinee soon after 1
my return from England writes (
that most clever of women “Grace
Greenwood” apropos of the ques- i
tion “What Constitutes a Good
Husband?” in the July Ladies’ <
Home Journal. In a stalls near us (
sat a lady handsome and elegant (
chaperoning two young girls
evidently her daughter and a
school friend both remarkably
pretty and charmingly dressed.
Just before the curtain rose one ex-
claimed. “Look Jennie there are
our brothers!” then added in an
injured tone “Why mamma I in-
vited Tom to escort us here and
he said he had an engagement.”
Said the other pretty girl: “And
my brother said the same! How
mean—only an engagement with
each other!”
Th ' voting gentlemen indicated
by t • • - -:r ile« and beckon-
ing of tliuir Si heir own
careless nods looked like college
boys a little fast and a good deal
tired in expression. They drifted
about the theatre between the acts
calling on their young lady
friends none of them so attractive
to other eyes as their sisters whom
thev coolly neglected all the after-
noon.
Tnose two are specimens of our
“gilded youth” who are scarcely
likely to do honors to married
life.
Yet in the reverence of a young
man for a brilliant mother and in
his love for a beautiful sister there
may be a considerable mixture o f
family pride of egotistic compla-
cency a sort of extension of self-
hood. The ideal mate and lifelong
lover of a true woman should
be in a way the lover
of all women even old
women and poor and plain and un-
cultured women so they be good
and true. He should be the strong
helper of the weak the faithful
champion of the wronged.
I have known a choice few of
such manful spirits—God’s own
nobles. From a half score of the
more illustrious ones I will single
out two especially noble as men
living and dying in spiritual com-
pleteness though with hearts un-
satisfied —Charles Lamb aud our
own John G. Whittier.

Sterilizing Baby’s Food.
Unless the mother lives in the
country and knows from personal
observation the conditions under
which the cows are milked it is
safest to sterilize the food writes
Elizabeth Robinson Scovil in a
valuable article on “Feeding the
Baby in Summer” in the Lady’s
Home Journal. Recent experi-
ments have proved that the germs
which render the milk harmful
can be destroyed by heating it to a
temperature below the boiling
point and keeping it at this heat
for one hour. A number of bottles
are provided each containing
food sufficient for one feeding the
whole supplying enough for twen-
ty-four hours. After being filled
the bottles are plugged with a wad
of cotton-batting and stood on a
perforated tin pie plate inverted in
a saucepan of warm water over the
tire. When the temperature of the
watorreaches 160 ° Fahrenheit or
is “scalding hot” not boiling it is
kept at this point for one hour not
being permitted to boil. The
bottles are then removed and
placed in the refrigerator one be-
ing taken out at the time
as needed. The plug is removed
the rubber top put on and the
food given to the child. When a
number of bottles cannot be ob-
tained the milk may be heated in
a saucepan until the surface skims
over remaining at this point for
one hour and then be poured into
a glass self-sealing jar or bottle
previously well scalded securely
covered and put in a cool place un-
til used. If the milk has to be
kept for more than twenty-four
hours as on a journey the process
of heating should be repeated three
times letting it cool between.

Artesian Wells of Warm Water
daho Statesmen.
George W. Newell is in the city
from his Snake River farm. Mr.
Newell has developed three arte-
sian wells and has a fourth down
173 feet. The water from all the
wells is hot. One of the wells is
down 335 feet another 200 feet and
the third 150 feet. There is a splen-
did flow from each. The pressure
from one is so great the water was
forced through a hole in the sand
digger at the bottom of the pipe
past several valves and fully 40
feet above the ground.
Mr. Newell intends to sink
enough wells to enable him to
irrigate his entire farm of 640 acres
with warm water. He will make
a specialty of early vegetables
which with the hot water can be
raised several weeks in advance of
those produced by cold water irri-
gation. Mr. Newell is now using
horse power in sinking the wells
but he is figuring on a steam en-
gine.

Growth of New Words.
Longman’s Magazine.
Such new words are continually
arising from day to day in our
midst. Just at first they are usal-
ly imitative or onomatopoeic and
more or less inarticulate. They
are deficient in vowels. The steam
engine seems to say to us “d’f p’f
p’f” the cat seems to say to us
“P’rrr p’rrr p’rrr” the sound of a
cannonball as it strikes the ground
we represent by“Th’d” the sound of
a gun we represent by “B’ng.” But
when we come to use these sounds
familiarly as parts of language we
soon grow to vocalize them. We
say puff puff puff; purr thud
bang.
In proportion as we use such
words in composition do they be-
come more and more articulate
and less and less onomatopoeic
while at the same time they tend
to become widened and conven-
tionalized in meaning. At last
when we talk of whizzing wheels
of a banging door or giving a
friend a puff in the papers or of
dexterously booming a new inven-
tion we have almost lost sight of
onomatopoeia altogether. Even
when we remark that the cat purrs
or that we distinctly heard a loud
thud at a distance we are scarcely
conscious of the imitative intention.

Monkey Pottery Makers.
From the San Francisco Bulletin.
/According to the North China
“Herald” which is probably pub-
lished by some imaginative Amer-
ican there is a tribe of monkeys
in China inhabiting the country
adjacent to the Great Wall which
is doing well in the arts making
their own wine and receptacles for
holding it. Dr. McCowan an Eng-
lish resident of Le Cheun quotes
from an old Chinese writer in evi-
dence of the above:
“On a certain day the people pre-
pared a feast for the monkeys
placing the viands near their caves.
Upon discovering it they all re-
paired to their dens and each re-
turned with a queer-shaped earth-
en jug. The villagers seeing this
scared the monkeys away and
captured their jugs each of which
was of monkey manufacture as
was also the wine which they con-
tained.”

An Alabama Experiment.
From the Charleston (S. C.) News.
“A novel experiment” it is re-
ported “is now being tried at Syc-
amore Ala. where two brothers
are operating on a 5000-acre tract
of land. They employ ninety-four
whites and not a single negro.
They raise all the food crops neces-
sary for the people and the stock
in their little community and all
the meat they need but cotton is
their principal crop. But they do
not ship their cotton to Northern
markets to be worked into Eastern
mills. A mill on the plantation
manufactures the cotton into yards
and another mill grinds the seed
into oil.” It is a very sensible ex-
periment and if it succeeds as it
should do it will be worth more to
Alabama than forty immigration
bureaus. The South needs better
farmers a great deal more than it
needs more farmers.
