LIQUID Oxygen.

Liquid oxygen when first formed is
milky in appearance, owing to the pres
ence of somo imrurity which may be re-
moved by passing it through ordinary
filter paper. When pure, it is of a pale
blue color, which, however, is not due,
as some have thought, to the presence of
liquid ozone, which is of dark blue col
or. Liquid oxygen is a nonconductor of
electricity, but lie strongly magnetic. 1t
may be lifted from cup by presenting
the poles of strong electromagnetic. 1t
seems to have very slight chemical ac-
tivity, since it will extinguish lighted
match and has no action on a piece of
phosphorus dropped into it. 1t is we'll
known that the A and B lines of the
solar spectrum are due to oxygen. and
from recent experiments on the top of
Mount Blanc it is thought they are
largely if not wholly due to the oxygen
in the earth's atmosphere. Professor
Dewar showed that these lines come out
very strong when liquid oxygen is inter
posed in the path of the rays from an
electric lamp.-Science.

Summer Styles For Men.

This summer we are going to be
governed by very simple rules. The
key to the entire scheme of dress is
modesty. Nothing can be overdone on
that side. Extremely quiet colors, the
darker tones predominating. and very
little jewelry to set the ensemble off, is
the edict. Brilliants and bright shining
gold ornaments are tabooed. 1t is bad
form to wear diamonds, large watch
chains, bejeweled loclsets and charms,
diamond rings and diamond pins. Large
cuff jewelry or scarf jewelry should not
be worn at any time.
The proper jewelry for the scarf is a
small gold pin ornamented with pearls
The coronet. butterfly, clover leaf and
other devices are popular These pins are
Of dull finished gold. and very little of
that precious metal shows. The link
buttons should be of dull finished gold
without any jewels. The shirt studs
should be Of the same metal and finish
Watch chains should be of small deli
rate links of gold and should run from
the watch pocket straight across the vest
to the pocket ON the other side.-Haber-

The Expulsion of jews From Russia.

There surely ought to be sufficient ex-
perience of the methods of the Russian
government to discount the attempts at
denial of the report sent to this country
by Mr.. Harold Frederic concerning the
expulsion of Jews from Poland These
ready denials are familiar phenomena.
That is the manner in which Russia seeks
to forestall unfavorable comment ard
righteous Indignation.
Curiously enough, the ruse is always
successful. nor is it to be wondered at
when it can succeed in securing the ac-
tive assistance of United States minis
ter like Mr.. Smith Of the Philadelphia
Press, who. under tho last administra-
tion, sent to the department of state q
positive denial that any measures for the
expulsion Of Jews from Russia were I'M
der contemplation, while at the very
time he was giving this misrepresenta-
tion Jews were being expelled en- masse.
The testimony adduced by Mr. Fred
srick in substantiation of his report in
regard to the expulsions now going on
in Poland is corroborated by the arrivals
Of Jews from Poland in Germany and
in this country. The bare denials of the
press dispatches based ON the official ut
terances from Russian diplomatic circles
are utterly untrustworthy.-

Cheerful Even In Death.

!. At dinner some time ago jolly old
astronomer related the following story
about departed friend, Mr. f.:
Mr.. r. was such good natured man
that the approach Of death itself could
not disturb his peace of mind and ap-
probation Of humor. He lay dying, and
his poor wife was nearly worn out with
anxious watching. She was SO tired that
by mistake she gave her husband instead
Of the doctors medicine dose from the
castor oil bottle. When she discovered
her mistake, she was almost frantic. She
summoned the doctor at once and await
ed his coming with fearful eyes and bit.
ter self reproach. The doctor came and
assured her that no particular harm
could have been done; that her hus-
band was dying, and medicine could not
save him now. Still the poor woman
wept and grieved.
The doctor tried to comfort her, but to
no purpose. If she had only given the
medicine and not the oil, perhaps her
dear husband might have got better.
She had killed her dear husband-killed
her dear husband. The doctor began to
argue, when the dying man spoke up:
"Never mind, doctor. I've had my oil.
Let her have her blubber. ."-Washing-

Boiling water During the Summer.

A medical friend Of the Listener
writes him to do something to arouse
public sentiment betilnes to the duty of
filtering and boiling drinking water this
summer. He thinks that. in view Of the
possibility Of cholera, people should ac-
quire the water boiling habit as soon as
possible. No doubt this is quite true.
And. cholera or no cholera, there are no
end Of germs in the ordinary water Of
Boston and the towns about. 1t is real
ly extraordinary how our people have
kept up 80 long the practice of drinking
water without filtering or boiling it,
and still more extraordinary, no doubt,
that we should cool our water by put
ting ice into it, when it can be cooled
just as effectively by putting a large
bottle of it corhed into refrigerator or
otherwise into contact with ice.
A good way out Of the difficulty, if
one thinks he does not like boiled water,
is to drink no water at all. There are
plenty Of other things to drink. From
all accounts. cholera can be taken only
through the stomach, and there is moth
ing SO discouraging to microbe of any
sort as a temperature of 212 degrees
