A MONSTER SKELETON
After being buried for ages
Jin the fossil beds of northeast
j ern Utah, the largest skeleton
ever discovered on land now
stands in Carnegie Museum at
Pittsburg, a striking example
of the monsters which roamed
the earth during the Age of
Reptiles, many millions of
years ago.
I The skeleton is that of a
Brontosaurus, of the dinosaur
order of reptiles, 100 feet long
and 20 feet high. In life the
animal weighed perhaps 20
tons. Alongside of it an ele-!
phant would seem as small rel
atively as a dog beside a horse.
The fossil bed from which it
was taken is the most extensive
deposit of dinosaurian and oth
er reptilian remains ever dis
covered. More than 200 tons of
bones and other waterial of
scientific value have been re
moved from it for study and ex
hibition, with very little dupli
cation of specimens. Accord
ing to a recent statement, it is
the belief of scientists that
these prehistoric animals were
originally embedded in a sand
bar in some ancient river. This
sand turned into sandstone and
was covered by thousands of
feet of other strata of rocks,
the whole later having been
forced into an upright position
by a great volcanic upheaval,
which left the fossil bed ex
posed on a mountain top.
Through the patient labors of
scientists who are continually

No Poisonous Insects
Found in Alaska
F. W. Morand, who has
been two years in Alaska col
lecting insects for the Smith
sonian Institution, declared in
a recent statement to the Jun
eau Empire that so far as he
has discovered, there is not a
poisonous insect in Alaska.
Mr.Moran has gathered
in Alaska some 60 specimens
of a spider which never have
been classified. The first spec
imen of the unclassified spider
was found a year ago. It came
into his tent. It had long legs
and a small body vividly col
ored like an Indian blanket.
But, search as he would, he
was unable to discover a sec
ond specimen until this season,
when, on overturning a large
rock, he found four of them.
Two years ago Mr. Morand
discovered near Juneau a but
terfly for which scientists have
been searching for 15 years. It
is a small, blue and delicate
creature and has been named
“Lyceana Kodiaky” and is
much prized, as a scientific dis
covery.
Michillinda, a town near the
border of three states, gets its
name from a combination of
Michigan, Illinois, and Indi
ana.

HOW ===^
TO OBTAIN BELIEF FROM
POISON IVY IRRITATION.—
Belief of poison Ivy irritations
may lie had from un easy and
simple method which Is described
In Popular Mechanics Magazine
by a scientist of Johns Hopkins
university.
Ivy poison, It is explained, Is in
thfe form of an oil and that the
dissolving and removal of the oil
before it can be absorbed into the
skin Is life most effective cure.
The method Is to prepare a hun
dred or so pinches of absorbent
cotton; fill a saucer with alcohol,
of 75 per cent or greater strength ;
dip the colton into the alcohol and
sop up the poisonous oil, throw
ing each pinch away as soon as
used and being careful not to al
low the alcohol to dry on the skin.
Tlie alcohol should be frequent
ly changed. About 00 applications
are usually sufficient for a small
patch of poison.
The first 30 applications should
not be rubbed, merely sopped.
After that, it is well to rub with
the wet cotton each time. At
last, rub vigorously to bring the
dissolved poison out of the pores,
and to break any small blisters
that already may have formed.
The more extensive the poison
patch, the more swabs will be
needed, and the more treatments
with relatively varying degrees of
pressure are necessary. Fifty
swabs are sufficient for a patch
the size of u silver dollar.
How Food Is Obtained
From Natural Elements
Green plants take water from the
soil, and carbon dioxide from the air
—materials which have no food value,
or energy content—and, with the as
sistance of energy provided by sun
light, put these materials together to
form sugar, the fundamental food
substance. Thus they lock up in the
sugar some of the energy of sunlight.
The green plant can then change su
gar into other classes of food (fats,
proteins) by the addition of certain
elements secured from the soil (nitro
gen, sulphur, phosphorus). The inde
pendent green plants thus provide the
food supply for all of the other (de
pendent) organisms, 1. e., animals and
nongreen plants (bacteria, molds,
mushrooms).
Coal consists of the transformed
bodies of ancient plants. Hundreds of
millions of years ago these green
plants locked up some of the energy
of sunlight in their own bodies, and
this same energy is released (In the
form of heat) when coal is burned
today. 1‘ractically all of the energy
that man or any other living organism
uses today cun be traced back to the
sun.
How to Tell Age by Hair
Dr. Carlton Ilood, of the scientific
crime detection laboratory of North
western university, has found a new
method of accurately telling a per
son's age. He claims to be able to
pluck a single hair from one's head
and from it tell the number of years
that person has lived. According to
an announcement by Col. Calvin God
dard, director of the laboratory. Doc
tor Hood made the discovery while
photographing hairs magnified 1,5-tfi.S
times. At such high magnification
growth rings running around the hair
at intervals were revealed. The num
ber of these rings counted to a tenth
of a millimeter determine the owner’s
age.
How Sun Dogs Form
Two sun dogs with a solar halo :
which were seen around the sun were !
caused by the reflection of light In
ice crystals in the upper air, accord
ing to Dr. Jessica M. Young, assistant j
professor of astronomy at Washing- !
ton university.
The phenomenon, although not un
common, is not often visible in St.
I.ouis, she explained. Clouds partly
obscured the halo, and probably a
number of sun dogs, because it is often
possible to see many of the sun reflec
tions at one time, she said.—St. Louis
