WEAR THE BUTTON
When You Go to the Worlds Fair, and X
inica In X1,ur Carnradn.I,ir

When You Go to the Worlds Fair, and Re-
joice I'm Your Comradeship.
"HE Worlds Fair is a wonderful ex-
position. There are SO many ma
- tons represented. Russia for her inn
mensity; France, beauty; Germany,
durability; Others have their superiority,
but English America is without a peer in
goods for general use and economy for the
masses, giving the common people thou
eand luxuries unknown elsewhere in the
world.
Comrades, do you realize that this Won
derland could not have been possible if this
Union had not been preserved by your
united efforts? You may claim this as your
own, and when you come here wear the
button, and don't be ashamed of your colors.
You can enjoy many hearty shake of the
hand that sends thrill of comradeship
through your whole being, and the general
salutation will add to your enjoyment by
the hundreds Of old vets you daily meet
here.
Chicago built flats and hotels to accom-
modate 100000 people daily and at no time
have they been one-half full; but it has
served purpose, for you can live here to-
day cheaper than In any other city in the
Union; yet, if you wish, can spend almost
any amount daily. The only drawback is
the present suicidal railroad rates. Tens of
thousands stay at home who would pay into
the treasury and spend the amount in less
costly enjoyments at home.
This Fair will never be reproduced in this
generation, and il is the last time you will
have to view so much splendor and magnifi-
cence in this closing of the 10Th century,
and to the young and old an object lesson OF
SURPRISING greatness.-JAMEs c. RUSSELL,

ment was largely known as the Garibaldi

Those Things That You Use Be-
fore You Sit Down to Read.
Ilsecolo Illustrate.
Looking glasses OF old were highly
polished metal plates; they were small
and provided with a handle. Grand
ladies entrusted their mirrors TO the
care of female slave, whose duty it
was to keep them clean and free from
stain or rust, and hand it to her mistress
when the latter required it.
The Chinese and Japanese formerly
used mirrors made by simple metallic
plate. The Japanese had story of the
Invention of the mirror. The sun god
dess, they said, once upon time got
Into great rage about something, and
retired TO cavern, VOwing she would
never come out again.
AS she was the Mother Of Light her
retirement put the whole earth in dark
ness. The other gods and goddesses
did all they could in order to persuade
her to come out again, and finally in
vented mirror, which they placed at
the entrance to the cave.
The angry goddess looked at it, and,
seeing, as she thought, another goddess
whose beauty was equal to her own,
emerged, mad with jealousy, from her
retreat, and the land was once again
Illuminated by the light of the sun.
Glass mirrors are supposed to
lave been first used in Sidon. Like
almost everything else, they were dear
for long time after their Introduction.
We read in a letter, written in 1913 by
Colbert to the Count AuvauX. that even
if mirrors had been manufactured III
France at that time, nobody but the
king would have been rich enough to
buy one.
The annual manufacture in Europe at
the present time, according to the latest
statistics we have been able to get, is
something like 1,S50,000 square yards of
looking glass.
In the mirrors of today the light is
reflected by layer of silver or an ANAL
gam of tin, but proportion of light is
lost IN the process of reflection, and the
image is less luminous than the Origi-
nal.
The value of looking glass is usually
estimated by the thickness of the glass,
because the thicker they are the stronger
they must be; but speaking scientific
all, thick glasses are defective, because
the outlines of the image reflected are
less clearly defined.
There are really three reflections, and
consequently three images in every
glass mirror; one from the upper sur
face of the glass, the second from the
lower surface, and the third from the
metallic layer at the back.
An ideal mirror is one with a per-
fectly flat surface; but it is only pos
sible to obtain this result in compare
lively small glasses. The larger glasses
do not reflect true image because il is
not possible to make them quite fiat.

Honeybrook mine, operated by the
Lehigh Il Wilkesbarre Coal company is
on fire. 1t is two months since the mine
was discovered on fire. 1t was said sew
eral times that the fire was out. At no
time was the fire thought to be of any
consequence. The present outbreak
shows that it is alarmingly extensive.
The surface near the stripping is so
heated that water flowing over it
is Immediately dried up. The
village of Honeybrook, which is
directly over the mine, is menaced by
collapse of the earth. Fissures run
through the town. They have been
caused by a settlement OF the earth
after the slope closed. These cracks
serve as chimneys for the escape OF the
gas accumulated in the interior. SO
thick are the yapors that on several Oc-
caslons it was impossible TO see any
distance. The people of HoneYbrook
are in a state of terror.
