Reduction of lili- deathâ€"rate among babies has been the greatest single factOr in increasing the average length of life. But other factors are also im- portant. The campaign against tiilu-rculosis has resulted in a con- siderable- decrease in the amount of this disease. Improved sanitation has tremendously reduced the amount of typhoid fever. And bet- ter control of communicable dis- cases. such as diphtheria and soar- let fever. is gradually lessening the death-rate from these diseases. In an article in Hygeia, Dr. L. 1. Dublin, of the Metro- politan Life Insurance Company, says that the lengthen- in g of life and disease-prevention go hand in hand.

A NEWSPAPERS CHIEF DUTY Reply Reply IIRAGBS ARE GOIIOR ON THE GREAT LAKES Captain Fred Simpson Tells of Sight: on Lake Superior, Inverted lir- egee Scarce. Mirages on the Great. Lakes are unusually prevalent. this season, but no sailor thus far has hen fortun- ate enough to see an inverted mir- age. which is an extremely rare oc- currence in this latitude. “The mirage inverted high in the air is peculiar to the tropics,” says Captain Fred J. Simpson, general manager of the Detroit and Wind- sor Ferry Company, who has sailed the lakes since boyhood, “but. phen- omena of this nature have been re- ported on the lakes, although it has never been my good fortune to view an . inverted mirage. “The mirage common on the Great Lakes, however, sometimes allows one to see ob cets alt great distances. (me time, w ile was sailing to Marquette, on Lake Superior, and my ship was still some 40 miles away, I saw the city looming ahead a m__ile or two away, “The mirage faded awaY after a while, and we sailed fora ong time before we caught sight of the city again. A captain of my acquain- tance outdid me in this, for he re- ported that he had seen Duluth when, his Shp was still 250 miles to the east _of the city. “I have heard that it is a common thing for tenants in the Masonic temple building in Chicago to see the city of St. Joseph across Lake Michigan on the Michigan shore and right here in Detroit, Belle Isle will loom up twice as high as ordinary at certain times. The sailors say when they see a mirage: “We are going to have an east wind, and nine times out often. the prediction is verified on our nearby lakes. » "It is a common expenience to see‘ heats looming up apparently only a short distance away and then see them fade rapidly until only the tops of their masts Show above the horizon. A beautiful inverted mir- age was reported on Lake Ontario away hack in 1856. According to the narrative, it occurred at, sunset. 'l‘welwr vessels were seen reflected on the horizon iin an inverted posi- tion, and the rigging and sails stood out bright and clear in the golden glow untl the light faded away.â€" (lollingwood Bulletin.

THEIR Picturiution of Story by Arthnu Stringer Raises Interesting Queen Can a man and a woman, both products of our modern hot'house civilization. wrest. a living from Na- ture, unaided by any of the pres- ent-day conveniences? That is the interesting question‘ that Empty Hands,“ the new Pana- mount picture coming on September 11 and 12 to the Veterans Star Thea- tre, raises and answers. It is a Victor Fleming production based on Cam Wilsons adaption of Arthur Stringers daring novel of the same name which originally was pub- lished in serial form in Harper’s Bazaar. The screen play answers the ques- tion in the affirmative, but an in- cident in real life that took place not so very long ago leads one tot the belief t at the answer should be in the negative. Several months ago the newspapers throughout the country carried front page stories of the disappearance of a young couple who fired with the story of “Empty Hands," went into the wilderness to duplicate the feat of the novel’s hero ; and heroine. A few days later they were found, half-starved and suffering from ex- posure. From actual experience, therefore, these two know that it can’t be done. However, it is possible that this real man and woman are not of the stutl‘ of which reel men and women are made. Jack Holt and Norma Shearer in the picture are not only successful in keeping body and soul together but the) ewn find time to fall in low! And thats that! There may he some argument over the theme of the story, but there can he no question as to the entertain- ment quality of the picture, It, is one of the finest photoplays of the present season, according to thosel tion.
