To Tell Raw Egg* From Cooked
Ones
Has It ever happened that you
boiled a few eggs and then placed
them with raw ones and could not
tell which were the raw and which
the cooked? If this ever happens
again, test them In this way: Try to
spin each egg. The raw ones will
not spin; the others will whirl like
a top. THE HOUSEWIFE.

Oil From Rubber
The motorist of the future may be
able to obtain his petrol and oil from
old tires. Government chemists of
the fuel research hoard have dis-
covered that by compressing rubber
and hydrogen at high pressure and
high temperature—a process similar
to that used for extracting oil and
tar from coal—It Is possible to pro-
duce elther\motor spirits or lubricat-
ing oil. In one experiment a temper-
ature of 350 degrees centigrade was
reached, and a quantity of pale yel-
low oil equal to about one-eighth of
the bulk of the rubber was produced.
At a higher temperature, 450 degrees
centigrade, the scientists succeeded
tn obtaining a yield of motor spirit
equal to half the amount of rubber
used.—London Tit-Bits.

Cleanse ine Bluou
VOUR kidneys are constantly fll-
X terms impurities from the 'uiood
stream. But kidneys fet function-
ally disturbed—lag In their work-
fall to remove the poisonous body
wastes.
Then you may suffer nagging
backache, attacks of dizziness,
burning, scanty or too frequent
urination, getting up at night,
swollen feet and ankles, rheumatic
pains; feel "all worn out.”
Don't delay! For the quicker you
get rid of these poisons, the better
your chances of good health.
Use Doan’s Pins. Doan’s are for
the kidneys only. They tend to pro-
mote normal functioning of the
kidneys; should help them pass off
the irritating poisons. Doan’s are

Unsightly slums In Atlanta are be-

tion progresses.
This photograph shows how a por-
tion of the Techwood housing project
in Atlanta will look when complete.
The PWA has allotted $2,700,000 for
this project that provides housing at
rentals of about the same level as the
slum dwellings they will replace, thus
affording the poor better housing con-
ditions at no increase in living costs.
Playgrounds, swimming pools and
other recreational , facilities will be
provided as shown In the picture. All
npartments will be well lighted and
equipped with modern conveniences.
All other funds have been tentatively
budgeted for wide-spread projects now
in various stages of development.

“Dust Storms” Figure on
All Pages of History
No one who has not been In one of
the dust storms which have swept
the western plains for more than a
year can appreciate their devasta-
tion and the apprehensions of the
people In the region extending from
the Gulf of Mexico to the Great
Slave lake.
Science knows full well the po-
tentialities of this terrible phenome-
non. It has Innumerable records of
other soil transformations brought
shout by the wind. Much of the rich-
er soli over vast areas In the United
States was carried there by dust
storms. An analysis of dust falling
In Missouri a year ago revealed the
characteristics of soil In the Da-
kotas. All soils are easily Identified
by their mineral content. The Da-
kotas had been exposed to drouth
for a number of years. The soil was
deprived of its protective vegetation.
Thus, when the wind blew, the soli
was carried away to be deposited
In other states.
To most of us who live where
moisture Is sufficient for human
needs, It Is dlftycult to realize that
the dust storms have been raging
al winter. Neither snow nor rain has
been sufficient to keep the dust down
even In mountainous states like Col
orado. Heavy rains have flooded the
lower Mississippi valley, but the
shortage of moisture has gone right
on in the plains. Whether in Texas
or Saskatchewan, the wind tms only
to rise and tlie (lust is blown. If any-
thing, the dust storms have been
worse than ever in the last two
months. They have actually buried
fences, piled dust high around houses
and barns, covered up crops. They
are destructive alike to man and
beast. No form of life can withstand
them day after day very long.
Needless to say, the dust phenome-
non has greatly altered the* food sit-
uation In the United States. It af-
fects meats and grains. It Is In part
responsible for the increased cost of
living. The AAA plan to limit the
production of spring wheat has been
abandoned. How can there be too
much wheat when the wheat states
are the chief victims of the dust?
The drouth reduced com last year
to a minimum. If It persists this
year, there will he no reservee of
corn left. From surplus Induced by
exeeaa production In our own and
other countries, we are In danger of
passing to scarcity due to drouth
and dust.
Records of drouth are readily
traced the ring* of tree*. There
are records of other drouths In thtt
plains ns bad as or worse than the
present drouth. This is not, how-
ever, an assurance to science that
we may now he witnessing the be-
ginnings of one of those deserts In
which nature dellgtitR. It was when
the Southwest became n desert that
the Indians moved Into Mexico. Life
follows the moisture-bearing nlr cur-
rents. When they passed from the
region south of the Mediterranean to
the region north of the Mediter-
ranean, life followed them. The Asi-
atics have long been accustomed to
packing up and following the mois-
ture-bearing winds.
Science would not care to assert
Its entire apprehensions of the dust
storms In the western plains. They
may he the consequences of Just an-
other drouth. Or they may he tho
beginning of the end for all that
region where the buffalo grazed. Sci-
ence knows what has happened.
What Is to happen Is on the knees of
the gods.—Kt. I.ouis Post Dispatch.

France’s Latest Bid for Oceanic Trade
To he shot or stabbed through the
heart used to he considered certain
death, and, though it is still a very
♦•ffectlve way of killing either man
or beast, research has proved that
even the heurt can be dealt with sur-
gically.
A domestic servant in Mexico City,
while going about her work, fell from
I the second floor into the street, and |
! >i knife she was carrying pierced her j
j heart and remained embedded. In |
j what seemed a hopeless effort to !
save her, the doctors at tin* nearest |
lied Cross center removed both knife
and heart. For five minute* they
were engaged in sewing up tlie heart
and replacing It, yet so far from lift*
being extinct, the patient, in spite of
a serious pleurisy complication, re-
covered and returned to her duties
apparently little the worse for her
accident.
During the war, a man in hospital
complained of severe pains in the re-
gion of the heart. X-rays showed a
hard substance, and in the course of
the operation which followed, the sur-
geon had to put his hand behind the
heart and take away with his lingers
the piece of shrapnel—about the size
of a cent—which wns there. During
this process air was pumped Into the
man's lungs, and he recovered.
A rabbi was stabbed by a negro
through the henrt. The surgeons ex
posed It, and a saline solution wns in-
jected to replace the blood between
pulsations. The left ventrical was
then stitched up, and the patient’s j
life was saved.
About the same time much inter-
est was evoked by the successful op-
eration of stitching up the heart or
a Leeds butcher who was accidental-
ly stabbed. A still more complicat-
ed case occurred of a man who was
brought into a hospital with a revolver
shot wound. The henrt was ex-
posed, and a bullet, found embedded
in the thick flesh of the apex, was
successfully removed.—London Tit-
Bits.
"No more ts red
let-down feeing for me”
"!reasoned
that my
red blood
corpuscle
strength
was low and
I simply took
a course of
S.S.S. Tonic
and built it
back.”
TT is all so simple and reasonable.
1 If your physical let-down is caused
by lowered red blood corpuscles—
which is all too frequent—then S.S.S.
Tonic is waiting to help you ... and
will, unless you have a serious organic
trouble that demands a physician or
surgeon.
Itcmember, S.S.S. is not just a so-
called “tonic.” it is a tonic specially
designed to stimulate gastric secre-
tions, and also has the mineral ele-
ments so very, very necessary in
rebuilding the oxygen-carrying red
corpuscles in the blood.
This two-fold purpose Is Impor-
tant. Digestion is improved... food
is better utilized ... and thus you are
enabled to better "carry on” without
exhaustion—as you should naturally.
You may have the will-power to bo
“up and doing” but unless your blood
is In top notdi form you are not fully
yourself and you may remark, “I
wonder why I tire so easily.”
Let S.S.S. help build back your
blood tone...if your case is not
exceptional, you should soon enjoy
again the satisfaction of appetizing
food ... sound sleep ... steady nerves
... a good complexion ... and renew-
ed strength.
S.S.S. is'sold by all drug stores in
two sizes. The $2 economy size is
twice ns large as the $1.25 regular
size and is sufficient for two week*
treatment. Bogin on the upzoad
