Why Foam Is White.

The question as to why all foam is
white is not an easy one to understand,
but the fact is that foam is always white,
whatever may be the color of the bev-
erage itself. The froth produced on
bottle of the blackest ink is white, and
would be perfectly so were it not tinged
to certain extent by particles of the
beverage which the bubbles hold in me-
chanical suspension AS to the cause of
this whiteness, it is sufficient to say that
1t is due to the large number of rejecting
surfaces formed by the foam, for it is
these surfaces which, by rejecting the
light, produce upon our eyes the impres.
sion Of white
If we remember that all bodies owe
their colors to the rays of light, which
they cannot absorb, and all bodies which
reflect all the light they receive, without
absorbing any, appear perfectly white,
we shall be prepared to understand how
the multitude of rejecting surfaces
formed by the foam, and which do not
absorb any light, must necessarily give
the froth white appearance. 1t is for
the same reason that any very fine pow
der appears white, even the blackest
marble, when ground to dust, losing
every trace of its original color Thomas

by DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis

The Pope's Jubilee This Year.


The pilgrimages to Rome in honor of
Pope Leo began with the first month of
1898, and they will continue at intervals
until their close in December. The pope
had,a golden jubilee five years ago. That
was to celebrate the 5Oth anniversary of
his assumption of the priesthood. The
present golden jubilee will celebrate the
Goth anniversary of his conservation as a
bishop. It will be seen that his advance
ment was rapid. Deputations from diff
ferent countries will visit Rome at inter-
walls during the jubilee year. Many
events of the greatest Importance in
Roman church ceremonials have had and
will have place.
One was the creation of number of
cardinals. Another is the issuance of an
encyclical early in the year which, it is
said, will deal especially with the cues
tions of patriotism and state education.
It is said that the pope wishes to i'm
press particularly on the people Of the
United States that love of country is part
of the Catholic church's teaching, and
that his holiness believes in the thorough
Americanization of Catholic children in
this country.
Most novel to the Protestant mind,
however, will be the ceremony of ''beat-
ifcation.' This amounts to a solemn
ceremonial proclamation that the spirits
of certain erlinently devout and sanity
persons who have departed this life are
released from the place of waiting souls
and have entered the state of heavenly

Medicine as a Career,

DR.. John s. Billings tells us in The
Forum that no career at the present day
offers to a young man such inducements
for success IS the medical profession.
By success. however, he assures US he
does not mean the means of amassing
great wealth. This profession will give
to a rl:n q comfortable competency for
himself and family; no more perhaps.
But it will afford opportunity for good
degree of happiness, for the exercise OF
the highest 1lcntal faculties and for be.
ing helpful to more people than the prac,
titioner in any other profession can be.
Certainly c rich field of investigation
lies before the scientifically inclined doc.
tor. We know, for instance, says Dr.
Billings. that malaria is due to minute
animal organism that passes through
several stages of Development, some o1
which occur in the human body. But
nobody has as yet eyer found this organ,
ism outside the human body. It may
perhaps get into the human blood from
the bite of 2 mosquito, but nobody knows
The medical scientist who shall hunt
the malarial bacillus home to his native
lair will be .he benefactor of the race
So will he who traces out through its
various forms the vegetable bacillus o1
typhoid fever, and he who shall find out
the function of each Of the nerve centers

system:
With little change in certain cells of thu

of the microscope to determine, the orator
becomes speechless, the Judge becomes a Grim.
