similar endearing epithets known to

statesmen-the declarations of nation

Lincoln, Grant, Garfield, Blaine, Sher-

Tho declarations of these conventions
and expressions and utterances Of these

study and investigation on my own
part The result is that now have an
abiding conviction that free coinage, OF

thereby the borrowing Glasses and the

Oats today in Kansas are selling for 5

high that it would be impossible to i'm
port dollars worth of goods into the

states one iota. 1t would not benefit the

In tho IDEAL Society.

In the ideal society the host will not
entertain the stranger guest with aston
ishing statements of the money getting
achievement Of his neighbors and fell
low jewellers. When noble portrait
painted by some great foreign artist Of
the hosts wife or daughter is exhibited,
the guest will not be allowed to know
the amount Of the check rendered in lieu
of it. If the host has written rather
successful book upon political economy
or finance, he will not oonfide the retail
price of the volume in question when
about to offer to present a copy to his
friend. If man takes stranger for a
drive behind a beautiful and covetable
pair Of well bred horses, the stranger
will not need to know the price paid for
them in order to appreciate their merits.
If new room-some grand salon fitted
with tapestries from a decayed palace
Of the old worlds thrown open, the
astonishing cost of these sumptuous
draperies will not be whispered about
among the guests. When lovely wom-
an is pointed out at ball, the chain Of
jewels around her swanlike neck will
not be appraised by her exhibitor. I al
most think that, in your ideal society,
there should be no such word as dollar.

A warning has been voiced by one of
the leading English medical journals in
regard to the too frequent use of the
Roentgen ray apparatus.
It is interesting, no doubt, to obtain
a series of photographs Of ones own
skeleton, but if this is to be at the ex-
pense of such trifles as ones hair and
ones finger nails it seems hardly worth
the cost. One electrical engineer, who
has often demonstrated the beauty of
his own finger bones by placing one of
his hands within the radius of the
searching rays, lost all the nails from
the fingers Of that hand, while Mr.. Sid
ney Rowland, who is one Of the leading
experimenters in this direction, men,
tions several cases of similar character
in the structural changes that occur in
the hair and so forth of those who
have been frequently shadowgraphed
by this method. Thus, in the case of
patients whose heads have been subject
ed to the influence of the rays, the hair
has either turned white or has fallen
out entirely. It is suggested that these
results are due to the electrical potency
of what are called the ultra violet rays
Of the spectrum, though their precise
action is at present by no means thor
oughly understood.
One curious suggestion has already
been made. 1t is we'll known supersti-
ton, and one which has existed for gen.
erations, that people who sleep in the
direct rays of the moon have their rea-
son more or less seriously affected.
Now, it is said that these ultra violet
rays exist in the moonlight, and hence
popular superstition may be founded
upon scientific fact. - Philadelphia
