tMlng 8tare ky Dayi
Although It Is an old belief that AM
stars can be seen In daylight from $0
bottom of a deep mine, well, chimney
or other shaft, the Rev. W. P. A. EU1J
aoa maintains that It has do founda
tlon la fact- Writing A^the,Journal
of the British Astronomical Associa
tion, Mr. Ellison says that the inrlsi
I bUity of the stars in the daytime is
caused by the glare of the atmosphere
Illuminated by the rays of'the s&pr and
that there la no reason why*a'><hlnniey
or other shaft should sensibly dimin
ish the glare. Even with ajAelescope
the risibility of stars and planets in
the daytime depends greatly upon their
color. Red or yellow stars an much
more easily seen than white ones, and
the telescope must be very carefully
focused or even a bright star will be
Invisible in the bright sky. The plan
ets Venus and Mercury, on the other
hand, can be seen better in daylight
than In the dark, but most of the plan
ets are less visible in daylight than the
j stars.
Plainsmen of Argentina.
The gancho, the Argentine plains
man, sprang from the Spaniard and
Indian. He was a nomad. His life
of frugality, activity and hazard fa
vored the fittest and fiercest He knew
no law save that of might He was
Independent daring, familiar with vio
lence and careless of life. Had he
through a Spanish parent some Moor
ish of ruin h» mnmiMited In the Dam
pag his ancestors who had galloped
over the plains of Arabia. In Argen
tina's wars of Independence, 1810-16,
the gaucho played an Important part
under General San Martin and Gen
eral Belgrano. In the civil wars that
followed he fought under captain* of
more or lew authority, and In the ty
rant Roeas, 1830-52, he became the
dictator over the llvee and, fortunes of
the higher classes of society. Both In
Argentine and Chilean history the ty
rant now belongs to a vanished! past

Muiuli en the Sm Bed.
The mussel's natural home la at the
bottom of the sea never In very deep
water and yet deep enough to he near
ly always covered at any state of the
tide. For preference It likes a bed of
sand or smooth, fine gravel. To this
bed it attaches 1 tee If by the llgatnre
lllte growth on the shell known as th»
byssus, and thus, standing on end with
Its point to the bottom of the sea, it
forms Itself in a dense mass ee*cloee
ly packed together that not an Inch
of the sea floor is visible. As new
ones come they do not extend the
ground space occupied, but range
themselves one on top of another in
layers, all firmly fixed together by a
living cord of connection. In this po
sition they are exposed to many dan
gers. A heavy storm may break the
mass to pieces and disperse Its con
stituents far and wide. Evert tf they
escape this it Is certain that bottom
layerf will be crushed out or exist
ence.

EIGHTY-POUR WERE
GIVEN CITIZENSHIP
Juneau, June 24.—Eighty-four
draft men were naturalized by
Judge Jennings at Fort Seward earljfl
this •week. Among the list were
former citizens of Great Britain, Au
trla, Sweden, Italiy, Norway, Den
mark, Germany, Greece, Russia
and Montenegro.
Federal officials returning from
the trip to Fort Seward report the
National army men from Alaska
gathered there as being rapidly
drilled Into ghape for overseas Ber
vice. They report the men in
tensely patriotic, With the exception
of several draft men from the low
er end of the division who "would
rather fish than fight."
TENOR'S ANNUAL TAX
Caruso's income tax of $59,000 is
now topped by the $.75,000 which
the Irish tenor, John McOormack,
pays the government as its tithe of
hig income from public appearances
and phonograph royalties. These
are prodigious sums and throw a
now light on mu*ic as a gainful oc
cupation. When the baritone and
bassos and coloratura sopranos
have mad9 their returns, when the
virtuosos of the violin and the piano
have Paid their tax, the country
will have occasion to regard musi
cal art with new respect as a source
of government revenue.

years ago I had such e bad attack
of lumbago that I wasn't able to
get up or down stairs. When I sat .
in a chair I could hardly get up
again. Sharp pains, like a knife
sticking me in- my back, nearly
killed me and I could hardly drag
myself about. I had taken only a
few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills ;
when my back got stronger and one |
box made me able to get about as 1
well as ever. Since then I have j
never had any trouble with my back

"Found Money"
"It's just as ii I found 96c," said many people as they cashed
their Liberty Bond Interest Coupons. They've had their first
demonstration of the rewards of saving, of THRIFT. UNCLE
SAM wants to help you get the Thrift Habit—a habit that will
help you through life. He has issued the W. S. S. You can
start with a quarter. 25c buys a Thrift Stamp, 16 Thrift Stamps
plus 13c buys a W. S. S. In 1923 a W. S. S. is worth $5.00 The
interest is at 4 per cent, compounded quarterly. One of the best
and safest investments possible.
