ine | :. Signal Service.

Gradually, the wild and ungovernable
forces Of nature are, through science,
made Of nse to man. Following in the
wake of the ingenious inventions for the
use of steam and electricity, comes the
organization of the Signal Service. Is it
not wonderful that system could be or
iginated and perfected whereby an oper-
ator can accurately predict the weather
Of distant locality. And yetexperience
proves our ''storm signals" to be reli-
able. Equally great are the advances
made in the science of medicine. Step
by step, uncertainties and doubts have
yielded to abs05utc certainty. The dis
coyeries Of Harvey and Jumer have been
succeeded by the Golden Medical Dis
c5yery of DR.. r. '. Pierce. No longer
need people despair because some physi-
clan has pronounced the lungs unsound.
Hundreds Of testimonials are on file in
the Office of DR.. Pierce from those who
had abandoned all hope, and had been
given up t. ale by physicians and friends.
Incipient consumption bronchitis, and
serofulous tumors, speedily, surely, and
permanently, yieuld to the healing infu-
ences Of the Discovery. If the bowels

Intellectual Test of Nations.

SO far as the general ability of the peo-
pie Of nation to read and write is a proof
of their superior enlightenment, the
Americans have no rivals in all the world.
AS readers we lead all nations. We are
100000. The population of England,
Scotland, Wales and Ireland is 80, 0O0. 600:
of France, 36,D00,000, of Germany. AZ
100000. In 1870 there were published ia
the United States 574 daily, 1926 weekly
and 1909 other papers and periodicals.
In 1877 the figures were: Dailies, ZOE
weeklics, 6,221; all others, 1,014, total.
1914. England has but 2,252, Germany
but 1885, France but 1853. and Italy
but 935. The total for the four nations,
embracing an aggregate population of
100000 is but 6,731, or 1913 less
than supplies the American population of
42,000,000 The distribution of our daily
and weekly papers among the several
States is instructive. They are not by
any means apportioned according to pop
Glation, though New York is always first
Il appears that New York has ninety
seven dailies. Pennsylvania comes next
with seventy-six; Illinois third, with for
II seven; and curiously enough, Califor-
MA fourth, with forty-three. In that
State of less than $4,000 of the European
race, they have four more dailies than
Ohio, with her 100000, fifteen more
than Massachusetts, or Indiana, seventeen
more than Missouri, twenty more than
Iowa, as many lacking one as Wisconsin,
Virginia and Georgia combined, and
more than eight times as many as either
Minnesota, Delaware or Oregon If, then,
the reading Of current publications is an
irre!ragible test of the superior instruction
of community, general y. the population
of California stands at the very summit
of modern civilization, so says Califor-

which the Germans failed to reduce in

tensive grounds, which are fenced in by
high brick walls. One day and night
each year house and grounds are thrown
open to Worth's employees, the women
appearing in dresses given them from his
store, and each trimmed according to the

to a temperature of e03 9 F. for two
hours. A French physician, who has
been experimenting on the subject, took

when sick with the scarlet fever, and
after heating them, as stated. caused four
of his children to wear them for several
daya. None of the children contracted
the disease. Vaccine matter and pre-
