Investigations of recent years, chiefly
among scientists of Germany, France, Eng
land and our Owl country, have gone far
toward solving the mystery of human
growth. First of all, growth seems to be
dependent upon the law of equilibrium in
nature-a law universal in extent and illus
trated in the tendencies Of gases to diffuse,
of liquids to seek n common level, and ex-
hibited in all chemical afinities and
changes. Much seems to be dependent
upon the nature Of the chemical elements,
especially of the four principal ones which
make up the body substance-the conser-
vative character of carbon, the expansive
tendencies of hydrogen, the explosive char
acter of nitrogen and the equalizing char
acter Of oxygen.
These four, in combination with each
other and some ten other elements, are
thought to retain their properties the same
as when separate. The rapid p%ermeability
of those substances of which the animal
tissues and membranes are chiefly COM
posed by crystalloids, in which form the
food is presented for assimilation, is re-
garded as an important factor in nutrition
and growth.-New York Times.

Why Disturb ReciprccityP

huntington NelVS,
In the case of the United States reci-
procity is a practical and useful policy.
1t means that through its operations we
are enabled to open markets for our pro-
ducts and manufactures that have hitber-
to been monopolized by other nations. Our
trade with South America is ridiculously
small when compared with that of Eng
land, or even Germany. Reciprocity bids
fair to change these conditions. Why
wantonly disturb its beneflcent work?

than three-fourths live below 1000 feet,
while below 5000 feet are found nearly 80

An English Criticism.

An English woman who is visiting in
this country writes home to newspa.
per friend, who promptly puts it into
print, that what surprises her most is
that raly American women wear bali
attire while receiving their guests in
the afternoon. She describes the effect
as most inconsruous and pictures a
mother and four dauglaers wearing de,
collete white satin gowns loaded with
flowers and jewels, standing at the head
of staircase, shaking hands with q
large contingent of friends in hats and
coats. 1t does seem odd when you think
Of it; but, after all, it is merely a matter
of custom. A low corsage and no sleeves
to speak of is the correct dinner dress,
from the English fashionable stand
point, but there are many critics who
hold that the dinner board is not at all
the place where such generous display
of fieshly attractions should be tolerated.
Mrs. Peary did not admire the Eskimo
women, and they in turn didn't admire
her. They found her too tall and too
lazy because she didn't chew the bird
skins for her dress. And so it goes.
