V- M.“ When the all- is dry on a cold morn- ing there is little or no evaporation, and the skin is not seriously atfected by the cold. But it the air is charged with moisture the. invisible water drops evaporate on touching the 'skin and by their evaporation abstract heat from the body, which feels the result- ing chill deep within. So if the air is still the cold does not penetrate, but if it is bakeezy new particles of cold air are coutinually swept against the skin and more and more heat is abstracted from the body.-â€"-Garrett P. Serviss in Spokane Spokesman-Review. The whole trouble arises from the essential difl'erence between a simple machine consisting of a glass tube and a little mercury and a complicated liv- ing body with its multitude of interre- lated parts and functions. The ther. mometer has only one way of feeling changes of temperature and only one way of responding to themâ€"viz. by either expansion or contraction of the liquid metal in its tube. The human body is a heat engine continually ra- diating away the heat produced within it by its vital processa, and its princi- pal means ot feeling changes of tem- perature occurring outside itself is through the differentzrates at which its inborn heat is radiated away to sur- rounding objects or the surrounding air. But if. scaredfby the thought of pneumonia, you ‘wlll return home in haste you will see as you glance atlt in passing that the thermometer on the porch still stares you down with its impudentvasserfions that the air this morning'is only moderately cold, just about right temperature to be en- joyable and healthful. Now, where is the origin of the de- ception and why are you warm .When the thermometer is coldâ€"and cold when the thermometer is warm? Atmospheric Conditions, Moisture and Wind, Exercise an Influence Over the Human Machine That In Last Upon a Mass of Mercury In a Glass Tube. I : Do not let the thermometer fool you. It is a very deceptive instrument for those who do not know how to use it --and sometimes for those who do, or think they do. You leave at! your heavytoat and your wraps, hue your thiaat and start bravely away for office or sta- tion, trying to feel as genial as the thermometer has assured you that the weather is. But you are not halfway to your destination before a shiver runs down your back, your nose be- comes an icicle, your ears smart and burn, and you begin to sneeze or cough. You feel that you have laid the foundation of a serious “cold.” which will probably put some money in the pocket of your neighbor, the doctor. But a few days later perhaps you look again at your thermometer on the porch as you are about to go about your business, and you find that it marks a very comfortable sum of de. grees above zero, what might truly be called balmy weather for winter. You have forgotten the disagreement that you had with the instrument of sci- ence the other morning, and you how again confidingiy to its decree. It says the air is comfortably warm, and the thermometer surely ought to know, since it is its sole business to measure temperatures, You wrap yourself up aS'for an arc- tlc journeyficfore venturing out. thrust your gloved hands intowyour big over- coat pockets, put on your ear shields, start an a run for Your office or the railroad station in order to get your blood into a state of defensive circu- lationâ€"and in two or three minutes you are streaming with perspiration! You turn down your collar, open your coat and find that the air is, though not exactly balmy, decidedly bracing and agreeable. . It has deceived you, but still it hat told the truthâ€"yet not the whole truth. only the truth as it sees it. It is zero weather for the thermometer, but it is not zero weather for you. Evidently your body and the thermometer have not the same standards of measure- ment. The Thermometer Verdict ls Very Misleading at Times. TEMPERATURE AND THE BODY You may glance at your thermom eter. hanging just outside the door. some winter morning and see the mer- cury standing at zero. Phew! You feel a shiver at the mere sight of that needle of glacial metal, contracted down almost to the bottom of its tube. as it seeking refuge, and glittering there like a miniature icicle cut of: short.

Once considered useless. the ivory nut has become an important product and now adds considerably to Ecua- dor’s export trade. Something like 20,000 tons are shipped from that country each year. worth about $1,- 700,000, while Colombia and Panama are both increasing their output. The tree is a stunted palm tern with a short thick trunk which grows slowly to a height of ten to twenty feet, marked by spiral lines or scars left by fallen leaves and fruit stem The leaves resemble large gorgeous green feathers and are like those at the cocoanut palm, while the blossoms are of pure white and very fragrant. The seeds or kernels resulting from these are first in the form of sacks of sweet. refreshing liquid that changes into a soft. delicious. edible pulp and finally becomes the hard nut of com- merce. The nuts mature very slowly, requiring from blossom to ripeness fully at year. The gathering of green or unripe mgua nuts is prohibited by law in Ecuador. WE PROMPILY FILL All.
