A Relic of the Revolution.

The man that bears the distinction of
being the oldest survivor of the war of
1912 is William Boone. who lives with
his daughter, Mrs. Darlington, near
Blissfeld. He was born March 2, 1792,
in Cumberland county, Pa. He is a
grandson of the famous Kentuckian.
When Mr.. Boone was lad of five years
he saw Gen. Washington at Philadel-
phia and loves to tell of the ''good old
days when he was a boy" When he
became twenty years old the war of
1912 broke out. He enlisted, fought all
through the trouble and carries bullet
to remind him of the experience. When
sixty years old he was as spry as a grass
hopper, and could turn handspring as
easily as boy of sixteen. He has been
a resident of Lenawee county for thirty
years. He is remarkably well preserved
for man one hundred years old. At
his birthday anniversary a few days
since he was very jolly and entertained
hopes of attending the worlds fair.

Romance or Realism?

Literary critics are discussing the
real character of fiction. The question
is: Should it be romantic or realistic?
And the true answer is, in the opinion
of the New York Ledger, that it should
be both.
Who would venture to shut off from
our young people the rich joy which
comes to them from reading Sir Walter
Scott and Robinson Crusoe," or thou
sand works of the same type, which
embody the purest and best romance,
as a vehicle for teaching many needed
lessons? Sam Weller may have been
an impossible character, but he has
created music of laughter which has
echoed the world around, and dismal
gloom has no greater foe than the man
who made him-Charles Dickens, who
in his best stories mingled healthy ro-
nance and healthy realism. And real
ism of a healthy kind is equally neces-
sary to the true power of the novel.
Thackeray is the master in this respect;
the true realist, painting life as it is.
But he differed very widely from re-
cent school of French novelists, since he
painted vice truly, but always to destroy
its fascination, lot to allure its victims.
An excess of the imaginary is un-
healthy, and SO is the abuse of realism.
We want novelists who are visionists
despite the current of modern thought
which says no. and when they have en-
bodied their visions of pure love and
the sacredness of duty into our reading,
we can do our best to make their visions

One Of the Gallant Six Hundred.
Survivors of the charge of the Light
Brigade are, says Harper's Weekly, few
enough to make the fact noteworthy
that Sergeant John Levich, at Indianap-
oils, is one of the gallant Six Hundred
who withstood the murderous fire OF
the Russian guns. He wears one Of the
silver medals with four clasps repre-
senting Alma, Balaklava, Inkerman
and Sebastopol, which the queen gave
those who returned from the Crimea.
Sergeant Levich says that the only
other participant in the famous attack
who came to the United States was
Michael Lehan, who died in Pittsburgh
. few years ago. The claim is made,
however, that Thomas Day, :. farmer,

Photoerepny Extraordinary.

Phrenologists have long claimed to Be
able to ascertain the character of an in
dividual by observing the conformation
of the bumps on his skull. Whatever
uncertainty may attach to these indicar
cations for the purpose named, there b
no doubt that photography. in conjunc-
ton with the electric light, has rem
dered it possible for man to know by
ocular demonstration the state of his
own inside. Photographs can now be
taken of the internal organs of human
beings and beasts and the process is
conducted in the following manner: In
closed in q cylindrical case provided
with two hemisphcrical shutters and
contained in an India rubber tube is q
small cylindrical camera In front of
the lens are two tiny incandescent
lamps, the wires to which, as well as q
short pipe from the camera, are carried
in an outside casing tube. A battery
for the lamps and a pneumatic ball to
operate the camera complete the outfit.
The camera is provided with sensitive
plate and when the apparatus is in use
simple pressure on the pneumatic ball
drives the camera forward in the meas
ing cylinder and at the same instant
makes the contact for the electric
lamps and opens the shutters. By re-
moving the pressure on the ball the
camera returns to its place, the lamps
60 out and the shutters close. Medicine
has always been anything but an exact
science and it is satisfactory to know
that diagnosis is now possible that
leaves nothing to chance or the imagi-
nation or incapacity of the unscientifc
practitioner.

''What will You take?" was promptly
asked. 1.-TWO million four hundred

and coolly reaching for small piece of

american Art.
MIKE,

The complaint is often made that the
American artist is too apt to resemble
the prophet in being without honor in
his own country. and it is not all wholly
unfounded, but, like all other griev-
ances, it has two sides. The truth is,
writes one who knows, that something
never comes out of nothing, and that a
proportion of painters lead too thought
less and too frivolous life to do any
thing like good work. Art is the ex-
preston of an idea. but if there is no
idea to express, how cheap and worth
less is the artl To be n great painter
requires an intellectual man or
woman; one who is on terms of famil-
iarity with great thoughts; whose mind
is well stored; who has enriched his
imagination from history, poetry and
romance; who is familiar with the SUBJ
tie suggestions in which mythology
abounds, and who has, too, spiritual
divination and insight.
A Boon to the South.
Artificial ice is one of the greatest
blessings that the progress of science
in late years has given to the south.
That which few years ago was a lux
ury, which only the well-to-do could
enjoy, is now becoming one of the COM
monest necessities of life for all classes
Ice making is an industry that is prov
ing of the greatest value to the whole
south, and the widest extension of this
business should be encouraged, as an
abundance of good, cheap ice adds to
the comfort and hcalthfulncss of the
people, and makes it possible, even in
small towns, to keep fresh meats and
vegetables of all kinds, the importance
of which can only be appreciated by
those who have been deprived of them.
While ice factories are being estab-
lished very rapidly in the south there
is still room for an almost indefinite ex-
pansion of the business; and this could
be materially helped by policy on the
part of ice makers of selling at very
low cost, and thus vastly increasing the
amount consumed.
