h Prof. â€" Cazzamaili‘s _ investigation covers a period sufficient‘ly long to convince scientists that his concluâ€" sions cannot be dismissed as superâ€" ficlal or based purely on accidental evidence. Even since 1913 science has been diligently endeavoring to prove that the human body under cert.‘1 conditions, is able to emit radiations, on which the whole theory of telepathy is based, without conâ€" crete proof. (Given these radiations, the next step was to prove that a system of communication, similar to that of wireless telegraphy, could be developâ€" »d between cerebral organisms li!lltt-‘ »d at distant points. A despatch from Paris says:â€"The human brain is capable of the emisâ€" sion of radiographic waves which, harnessed and reduced to code, will create a method of communication beâ€" tween distant minds as perfect as that developed by wireless telegraphy. This is the sensational conclusion of an . Italian _ selentist, Ferdinando CazzamaÂ¥H, Professor of Neurology and Psychopathy at the University of Milan, as a result of his investigaâ€" tion of the radiographic waves of the brain. His theories are particuâ€" larly significant in that they purport to reveal a scientific basis for the whole phenomenon of telepathy. ] Light weight clothing is comfortâ€" able for warm seasons, and when cool it is easy to slip on extras over or under.

In spiteâ€"of its "buried" look, howâ€" ever, Phari is one of the leading "marâ€" ket towns" of Tibet. There is a reâ€" spectable bungalow in the village, kept up by the Indian Government for the use of its representatives, and it was here that the last Mt. Everest expediâ€" ticn arrenged to stop when carrying out their exploration of the nearby mountain. Phari is also in postal and telegraph comumunication with India. Phari consists of a fortress, sutrâ€" rounded by two hundred hovels. Owâ€" ing to the fact that everything which we would throw into our garbage can is there simply thrown out, these hovels are now below the i»vel of the ground. Year by year the heaps of rubbish have grown, until the occuâ€" piers of the "houses" have had to cut paths through them from their front deors to the road. It is a villago, Phariâ€"jong by name, situated on a piece of rising ground in the centre.of a plain not many miles from Mt. Chomolhari, one of the finest mountains in‘ Tibet. It stands over 14,000 feet above seaâ€"level, and is beâ€" lieved to be the highest place in conâ€" tinuous habitation in the world. _ It was built some five hundred years ago. »Tibet is famcus for many things, but few people know that the dirtiest place in the world is to be found in the land of.the Lamas. _ There are two ways of fishing Nipiâ€" gon waters with a fly rod. Use either wet or dry flies. The dry files are the floaters, and the wet files are those that sink on contact with the water. In either event "your flles must be large sizes, even files tied on 2/0 hooks are not too large. It is we‘l to be supâ€" plied with a liberal assortment. Nipiâ€" gon trout respond well to large salmon and bass flles of most every pattern, if handled properiy but always have in your fly book a number of Parmachene Belles and Colonel Fulleirs, as well as Jock Scotts and Silver Doctors. When you fish wet files let them go down in the water and not skitter on the top at the end of a leader as so many are no longer than your fly line and you have no additional line on your chances of landing him are very poor. Fly fishing the Nipigon is a singularâ€" ly enjoyable sport, but it demands positively accurate attention in the way of equipment. Now and then a big trout is taken with nondescript lure, but large ones are only caught conâ€" illstently with good tackle and really working for them. Fly rods, no matter what your favorite weight or length, preferably should have a hard action so you can fish long distances when the water is exceedingly clear without beâ€" ing observed by the trout, Also hard‘ action fly rods come in good stead, as very often you have to rough a big fishj among rocks in fast water, which canâ€" not be done with other types of rodu.i Furthermore, hard action rods will handle easily large fly rod lures, feath-l er minnows, bass bugs, spinners and phantom minnows ail of which arel favorites at times in Nipigon fishing. Be Prepared. 1 Hers is something which will often assist in landing a big fish in rough | water. You can never tell when thol big fellow is going to hit, so be preâ€" | pared for him. On your fly reel usal at least fifty yards of fine bait casting line to supplement your fly line. With [ a big fellow in fast water you have either to let him run a while and tire himself out or lose him. If his run is! A good deal of the successful fishâ€" ing of the Nipigon depends upon the outft a‘man takes with him, as well as ’cortaln characteristics of the trout here. Like elsewbere, you bhavse to work for big trout, and the big trout of the waters are the squareâ€"tailed brook trout, known throughout the United States and Canada as true fonâ€" tinols. The best fishing waters for these game fish are the rapids; they hug them continually. Only once in a while is one of any size found away from them. They are both minnow and insect feeders, and are taken in deepest rapids with fiies, the local best live minnow, the cockatouche, and alâ€" most any kind of spinning casting lures. 1 Dirtiest on Earth.

The most highly educated members of the tribe can, by using the fingers court to ten but no more. In case one should desire to count to twenty he would have to use his toes as well as his fingers, the thought of using the fingers twice never entering their minds. In Northern Luzon, in the Philippine Islands, is a big tribe of savages known as Mangyans. _ These people are so backward in civilization that not one of them can count up to more than three. f Big fish only grow because they are wary. So again the advice can be ofâ€" fered to fish hard, carefully, and do not try to see how much water you can cover in a day, but how well you can Tish it. And the next advice is to come prepared with a good assortment of the right kind of tackle and never create a disturbance when you can possibly avoid it. _ ‘Naturaily, when using phantom minnows and spinners attached to files, the rod is moved considerably to ‘cren'te a flash of the lure but this is not fly fishing but feal skittering, and the only advice pertinent is to fish the likely reaches of fast water. ‘ Bait Casting. Some have trolled with success in the Nipigon, and most all types of metal lures will on days bring a rise. Bait casting, however, is a sport in these famed waters, which when perâ€" sisted in is bound to bring the angler some nice fish. You can reach many desirable places in this way that are not within reach of a fly rod. Use light, whippy rods. Never overlook a spot when an‘upstream current meets a downstream one in a whirling eddy. Pork rind lures often bring a fish out o&Nlpigon waters. Most scare their A by using spinners that are too large. No. 2 is plenty big enough. The: darting spoon§, Devons and trolling minnows often bring success. l , prone to do. No natural fiy disports ‘ itself in tiis manner when it falls in | the grasp of the current. If you are i casting downstream cast with a slight | belly or curve to your line so that your flies will have opportunity to sink beâ€" ‘fore the line stretches out taut. Figsh one spot well and return to it frequentâ€" ‘ly if it is Mkely. Nearly all big Nipiâ€" ‘ gon trout stay in fast water behind the ‘rocks or those rips of water between eddying upstream and downstream water. They should all be worked careâ€" \ fu‘lly, either very early in the morning or late in the ovening. It is only chance luck when you get a big trout to come when the sun is shining bright and nearly overhead. Concerning fishing Nipigon waters with dry files, the best the writer has evor used are the small bass bugs on No. 1 or No. 4 hooks that have flat wings. They will give you better reâ€" sults â€"than regular dry files of any make, but fish them jast as you would a dry fiy, absolutely"dry, and in the upstream eddies as much as possible, never permitting line strain to carry them under water, and when the water is exceedingly clear let them float as dead as possible. This advice is given warningly. . Many lose opportunities for big fish through trying to get their fily in motion through rod tip action. Fish them dead, let the current give them the only action they are to have. Featbher minnows are also used in this manner. Eating Snakes and Worms. ses was legal of London for of chintz or t _ !

Sixty per cent. of Canada‘s enâ€" dowment of forest resources has been burned, thirteen per cent. has been cut for use, leaving but twentyâ€"soven per cent. remaining. When we look around and see the tremendous range of industries and their hundreds of thousands of employees dependent upon this remaining twentyâ€"seven per cent., it is little to be wondered at that thinking Canadians are deeply interested in forest fire protection. _ The average Canadian, if he thinks at all on the matter, still looks on Canada as a country of immense forâ€" est resources, capable of sustaining increased development in forest inâ€" dustrics indefinitely. He does not realize that fires mean not only direct loss of timber snd property, but the inevitable closing down of industries, loss of employment and attending economic instability. Being ignorant of the seriousness of forest fires, and being unused to the hazards resulting from simple acts of carelessness in the use of fire im the woods, he negâ€" lects to put out his campâ€"fire or throw away live cigarette or cigar stubs without thought of the consequences. In the depletion of our timber supâ€" plies, forest fires are toâ€"day and alâ€" ways have been a large factor. In addition, the everâ€"present risk of fire to the standing timber and to the young growth, which is our main deâ€" pendence for future supplies, is so great as to preclude the inauguration of business principles in their manâ€" agement until the fire risk is maâ€" terially reduced.
