HOW’RE YOUR HORMONES.
Science is making discoveries that
open wide vistas of interest for the
rest of us. Did you know that
sputum from humans in high anger
is very poisonous? Do you know
that horses and dogs can actually
sense by smell, when a human is
frightened, and that the same sense
accounts for the friendliness an-
imals show for certain people?
Ductless gland throw hormones in-
to the blood stream. Hormones
have sudden and dramatic effect—
they influence us tremendously. In-
deed, in lower forms of life, simi-
lar secretions function for a nervous
system. In higher form we have
dual, and sometimes conflicting con-
trolnervous system and chemical
authority of gland secretions. Thus
it is healthy to laugh and unhealthy
to be angered. Our very moods
affect our blood stream, Our blood
affects our rioods. Healthy babies
are happy. Old philosophers are
dreary. Someone has said all phil-
osophers should submit to diagnosis.
Many masterly and convincing pes-
simists may merely need a fig diet
or a new set of ductless glands.
NEGLECT OF EYES IS DANGEROUS
HABIT; WEAR “SPECS” IF YOU
NEED THEM.
Sight isthe most important of all
your precious senses. What it gives
us add immeasurably to the satis-
faction of living. It informs us of
the world in which we live, of all
its objects and the doings of our
friends.
“Myopia,” or ‘near sightedness,”
is an eye defect that can be over-
come only by wearing of glasses.
For many years man has ‘tried
other means of relief. Massage,
suction, pressure and various exer-
cises have been tried but to no
purpose.
In very high degrees of myopia
operative procedure has been used.
But in the long run glasses seem
to be the only corrective measure
worth while,
Persons who are near-sighted are
called “myopes.”” They have ex.
ceptionallly large eyes. They are
so large and so long that the re.
tina, the seeing part of the eye, is
too far back to receive distinctly
the focussed rays of light.
The effect is the same upon vis-
ion as though the picture used in
the projecting macnine of a mov-
ing picture theatre were too small
for the room. The scieen is so
far away that the images reaching
it are blurred and indistinct. :
A person afflicted with mnear-
sightedness is never sure of what
he sees. He can scarcely make
out objects across the room. He
fails to recognize his friends on the
street.
There is one 'thing he can do
which his far-sighted brother fails
to do. It is his only advantage.
I refer to the ability of the myope
to read the finest type mearby with-
out spectacles.
Occasionally we hear about an el-
derly person who reads without the
aid of glasses. Almost always
it is because the myopic eye is
well suited for close work. While
the distant vision is exceedingly de-
fective the near vision may be ex-
cellent,
Myopia is sometiiaes progressive,
increasing from year to year. Any
severe illness may materially ag-
gravate this visual defect.
In the correction of myopia strong
concave lenses are used for distant
vision. Unless the degree of myopia
is very high, no glasses are requir-
ed for reading.
When there is an excessive
amount of near_sightedness it may
be necessary ‘to have a second pair
of glasses. In such acase the read-
ing glasses are much weaker than
the distance ones.
Weak concave lenses have the ef-
fect of increasing the clearness and
definition of distant objects. Things
may look somewhat smaller, but at
the same time they are far more
distinct.
Itis important tmnat near-sighted-
ness be corrected. Certain -eye
diseases are more common in cases
of neglected myopia.
Too many persons are careless of
their sight. When the wearing of
glasses can overcome the evils’ of
eye defects it is strange that so
many perons go on from year to
year without them. I cannot urge
you too strongly to attend to your
eyes.

hills are white.
Autumn came back to the prairie
provinces after two days of winter.
Telegraph and telephone companies,
after thirty-six hours’ work, report-
ed that their lines of communica-
tion were back to normal. Snow
and sleet had carried down wires
and poles over a wide stretch of
prarie.

BELLEFONTE REFORMED CHURCH
| Corner stone for which was laid fifty
years ago, on October 10th, 1880.
REFORMEDS TO CELEBRATE
LAYING OF CORNER STONE.
Plans have been under way for
some time to properly recognize the
fiftieth anniversary of the laying of
the corner stone of the St. John’s
Reformed church, of Bellefonte.
On October 12th., morning and eve-
ning services will be held in connec-
'tion with this event. The Rev. Dr.
A. M. Schmidt, of Philadelphia, a
former pastor, and the Rev. Frank
Wetzel, of Akron, Ohio, a son of
this congregation, who with his
father and brothers built the pres.
ent edifice, will be guests of the con-
gregation and speak on this oc-
casion. The Rev. Mr, De Long, now
retired and living in Bethlehem, Pa,
will be unable to attend the anni-
versary service because of the infirm.
ities of age, but has consented to
send a message to be read on that
day. Another feature of this event
is the installation and dedication of a
window in honor of the Rev. Dr.
Schmidt, whose pastorate was out~
standing in the history of the
church and in memory ‘of his wife
. who departed this life several months
' ago.
| This congregation was organized
by the Rev. Ephriam Kieffer inthe
year 1836 in connection with the
Lutheran congregation and remain-
ed a union congregation, served al-
ternately by Lutheran and Reformed
pastors until about 1843, when the
Rev. William R. Yearick reorganized
'and formed an exclusively Reformed
| church, the charter being granted
{in 1846. It was in 1879 that the
|Rev. John ©F. DeLong began a
| pastorate covering a period of six
years, Within six weeks after the
coming of the Rev. Mr. DeLong
the old church was set on fire by
a newly installed furnace. While
the damage was mot serious and
the church might have been repair-
ed it was thought best to erect a
new edifice. This was done and the
corner stone of the present house
of worship was laid October 10th,
1880. The building was mot com-
pleted and dedicated until the fall
of 1882. The parsonage was also
remodeled and when the Rev. De-
Long resigned in 1886 the congre-
gation was strong and flourishing.
From that time on the growth was
more rapid and substantial. Dur-
ing the pastorate of the Rev. Dr.
A. M. Shmidt which began in 1901
and lasted for a period of twenty-
four years, the chapel now used by
the Bible school was built.

LATE FALL BEST TIME TO
TAKE EVERGREEN CUTTINGS
| Lol
| Taking cuttings of evergreens
! during the latter part of July and
during the month of August is a
' common practice among amateurs.
| A more successful time for this
operation is from the latter part of
October to the middle of December,
| says County Agent Ross. A small
greenhouse or hotbed will be neces-
sary for the latter method. The
cuttings of evergreens should not
!be less than 4 inches nor more
than 6 to 8 inches long. A sharp
| knife or a pair of pruning shears
' is absolutely essential in order to
| obtain a clean cut. The cuttings
| should be placed in flats 16x20x4 in-
ches, with sufficient drainage allowed.
Broken pots or stones, placed
over the holes, will prevent the
sand used in the propagation from
leaking out. The cuttings are placed
in rows far enough apart so that
they will not touch each other. Plac-
ing the cutings one-sixth to one-
quarter of their depth in the sand
has proved to be successful. New
tissue will cover the best of the cut-
tings in 3 to 4 weeks after setting
in the sand. When the cuttings
have become thoroughly rooted,
they should be shaded carefully for
about 3 weeks after which they may
be placed in rows 10 to 12 inches
apart and 4 to 6 inches between
plants.
