Tbere is one little instrument in which the interest of all classes of people in this country never diminishes through all the changing seasons of the year, from the first day of January to the last day of December. It regulates the business pulse of the nation and is the shrine to which men of all occupa tions turn. And this little instrument Is the thermometer, which bears the name of Fahrenheit. Before the seventeenth century men could only judge of the amount of heat prevailing at any place by their per gonal sensations and could only speak of the weather in a very indefinite way as hot or very hot, cold or very cold. In that century several attempts were made by scientific experimenters by means of tubes containing oil, spir its of wine and other substances to es tablish a satisfactory means of meas uring heat, but none of them proved successful. Even Sir Isaac Newton, who applied his great mind to this work, and also the noted astronomer, Halley, failed in their attempts to pro duce a heat measure. It wras reserved to Gabriel Daniel Fahrenheit, an obscure and poor man, a native of Dantzig, to give to the world the instrument which has proved to be so serviceable to mankind. He had failed in business as a merchant and, having a taste for mechanics and chemistry, began a series of experi ments for the production of thermome ters At first he made these instru ments with alcohol, but soon became convinced that the semisolid mercury was a more suitable article to use in the glass tube. Fahrenheit had removed from Dant zig to Amsterdam, and there about the year 1720 he made the mercury ther mometer which has ever since been fashioned much like the original. The basis of his plan was to mark on the tube the two points respectively at which water is congealed and boiled and to graduate the space between. He began with an arbitrary marking, beginning with 32 degrees, because he found that the mercury descended 32 degrees more before coming to what he thought the extreme cold resulting from a mixture of ice, water and sal ammoniac. In 1724 he published a dis tinct treatise on the subject of his ex periments and the conclusions that had resulted therefrom. Celsius of Stockholm soon after sug gested the more rational graduation of a hundred degrees between freezing and boiling point. This was the centi grade thermometer. Reaumur propos ed another graduation which has been accepted by the French, but by far the largest part of the civilized world Fahrenheit's scale has been accepted and used, with 32 degrees as freezing, 55 degrees as temperate, 96 degrees as blood heat and 212 degrees as boiling point. It is true that the zero of Fahren heit's scale is a solecism since it does not mark the extreme to which heat can be abstracted. This little blemish, however, does not seem to have been of any practical consequence. Arctic explorers have persisted in de scribing temperatures below the zero of Fahrenheit, and scientists have pro duced artificially temperatures far be low any ever dreamed of by the ther mometer maker of Amsterdam. There is doubt as to the year of the death of Fahrenheit, but it is generally placed in 1740.- Los Angeles Times. Sun Power.

Reindeer Clothing Suggested by Sam uel D. Williams as Very Warm, Light and Practical—Hospitality of the Natives Not Excelled Anywhere. "I have been reading the proposed automobile race from New York to Paris overland under the auspices of the New York Times and Paris Matin with more than an ordinary amount of Interest, for I have been in that arctic country quite a good deal and know something of the hardships that will have to be encountered," said Samuel D. Williams of Portland, Ore., to a rep resentative of the New York Times at the Waldorf-Astoria the other day. "Such a trip appears to me to be per fectly feasible, although it will entail many hardships and necessarily much suffering unless great care is taken by those sent on the expedition. Much has been said about the construction of the machines, the gasoline and lubri cating oils that will not freeze and such other things of a mechanical na ture and the comfort of the drivers themselves appears to have been en tirely overlooked. This is a question that should be taken up before the machines are started on their long journey, and in order that the drivers may have the benefit of the experience of others who have spent many months in the arctic regions a few suggestions might prove beneficial. "In the first place, it has been found that in order to get the best out of the situation and be as comfortable as pos sible under the conditions it is best to conform as far as possible with the customs of those who have already solved the problem of living in the arc tic regions. In this connection it seems that the value of reindeer skin cloth ing has not always been known or as fully appreciated as it should be in arctic explorations. "The Eskimo of arctic Alaska and northeast Siberia use hardly anything else, and nothing is so warm and light as their dress There are slight local differences in the makeup of their dress, but in general the men's winter clothing consists of a single pair of close fitting trousers, with the hair next to the skin for cold and the re verse for ordinary weather a pair of deerskin socks, with the hair next to the feet a pair pf boots with the hair out, with heavy sealskin soles for hard wear or deerskin soles for light wear two artigges, or shirts, one with the hair next to the body and the other with the hair out and both with close fitting hoods fringed with wolfskin to break the wind from the face and nose, and a pair of mittens. "These are all made of the summer skins of the reindeer, and the whole outfit will not weigh more than ten or twelve pounds. Over the skin shirt is worn a snow shirt made of drilling, and sometimes a pair of drill trousers is worn over the skin trousers to keep the snow from driving into the hair. "A belt is worn around the waist out side the shirt to keep the cold air out, or, rather, to keep the warm air in This is loosened when the person gets too warm. With this outfit well sewed and everything tight one can defy al most any degree of cold. "The weight of one's clothing is very telling iu the days and weeks of trav eling through the snow and OAer the rough ice, and the lightness of the deerskin is» one of its most important featuies The skins are beautifully tanned and are soft and pliable The heavj winter skins are seldom used for clothes, but make excellent sleep ing gear, either as mats or blankets or made up as sleeping bags Here also their lightness and wrarmth are their chief recommendations Another thing concerning the comfort and safety of the drivers was referred to by Mr. Williams in the necessity for taking care not to freeze exposed parts "The difference between care and lack of care in arctic travel is slight," he said, "and the first letup is sure to bring its reminder in the shape of a frosted toe or finger or a frozen nose. One must be on guard, and the slight est twinge in the nose or cheek must be heeded and circulation started again by vigorous rubbing. "No part of the bodj' requires more attention than the hands and the feet. Socks and boots must be well made and kept thoroughly dry. Even the slightest perspiration will, if one stops too long, work disastrously. Both boots and socks should be changed im mediately upon arriving at camp, and dry ones sho\ild be put on in the morn ing before starting out. "The natives knowr the importance of this only too well, and if they see one inclined to neglect these precautions they will insist on his taking his foot gear off. It is the easiest thing in the world for a man to suffer severely in such a climate, but it is possible by good care and attention to avoid what one might call extreme suffering and go through the country with only the unavoidable discomforts, which a man soon learns to become accustomed to. "While speaking of the arctic coun try let me say just one- thing more. The hospitality of the people—the na tives, I mean—is not excelled any where. It is never grudging. It is thrust upon you. The best they have and the best place in the house are at the disposal of the traveler. Often It Is embarrassing, for the natives are so Insistent and generous that It i» hard to refuse their Offers." mm Movement on Foot For" Stat* to Buy Historic Texa Building. The ancient La Bahia mission build ing, situated near Goliad, Tex., is to be rehabilitated and preserved if the movement succeeds which has been started among patriotic Texans with those purposes in view, says the Kan sas City Star. In this ancient build ing on May 7, 1836, 300 men under command of Colonel Fannin were massacred by a large force of Mexi cans at Santa Anna's orders. The walls of the church were stained with the blood of the men who were striv ing to gain their country's liberty from Mexico. The news of this massacre aroused the Texans and gave them the frenzied courage which soon after ward resulted in the overwhelming de feat of Santa Anna's army and cap ture of the Mexican commander, whose life was saved only through the timely interference of General Sam Houston. In all the years that have passed since that massacre, during the period that Texas was a republic and since she became a state, the historic edi fice has remained uncare^* for except for such little attention as was shown it by the few poor but devout Mexican worshipers who gathered at its altar on Sundays and the various saints' days. The inoienient now on foot seeks to have the state purchase La Bahia mis sion from those who claim title to it and to permit it to be cared for by the Daughters of the Texas Republic, as the historic Alamo building now is Owing to its remote location compara tively few people visit La Bahia mis sion. Those who enter the building first must pay a fee to the- Mexican who is in charge of the place. The in terior of the mission edifice is much the same as it was when the massacre left the walls bespattered with blood more than seventy years ago. FOREST FROM SEED. Oklahoman Now Has Flourishing Tract of 80,000 Catalpa Trees. J. W. Bird's venture in starting a catalpa forest has proved very success ful for the first year, says a Pond Creek (Okla.) dispatch to the New York Herald. He bought raw land in the sand hills just east of Pond Creek for his project and broke it up last winter and spring. He planted about 3,000 seeds, expect ing to get about one-fourth that num ber of plants He now has between eighty and one hundred thousand vig orous, healthy young trees of an aver age height of about three feet. Next spring he will transplant, and if the trees come through the winter well he expects to have about eighty acres in trees. As an illustration of what remarka ble growth the tree will make in this soil and climate Mr. Bird has in his office a tree cut by W. H. Farmer, who lives one mile from the former's catal pa farm Last April Mr. Farmer cut back a two-year-old seedling, and since then the tree has made a growth of ten feet six inches MANY SCALPS THEIR QUEST. Girl Bachelors Hang Up Prize For One Who Refuses Most Men. The "one best bet" in Alton, 111, is that if a man asks a girl to marry him she will tell him she will be a sister to him—that is, if she is a mem ber of the Bachelor Girls' club, says an Alton special dispatch to the Wash ington Post It matters not if the man be possessed of wealth beyond the dreams of avarice, if he proposes just now to an Alton bachelor girl he will be put on the brotherhood list tempo rarily at least. The bachelor girls, whose afei in life is to make men propose so they can reject them, have decided ^o give a silk dress worth $200 to the member who can prove at the leap year ball in January that she has refused the most offers. If the men do their duty, as expected, the bachelor girls figure that each will have at least three new scalps to show when the contest is decided. There are some male skeptics who scent a trap and ask, "Suppose I propose, out of good nature, and the girl says 'Yes?'" Fattenrng a Possum For the President.

It is astonishing how great a change a few years of married life often make in the appearance and disposition of many women. The freshness, the charm, the brilliance vanish like the bloom from a flower which is rudely handled. The matron is only a dim shadow, a faint echo of the charming maiden. Few young women appreciate the shock of the system through the change which comes with marriage and motherhood the unpleasant1pelvic drains and weak- nesses which too often come with mar riage and motherhood, not understand ing that this secret drain is robbing the cheek of its freshness and the form of its fairness.
