secure food of absolute purity and
sufficiently nourishing to make sure Of
complete and healthy growth.
The purest, most nutritious and the
most easily assimilated infant diet is
lactated food. A poorly fed baby may
sometimes increase in weight and grow
fat, but the flesh is flabby, the blood
poor and thin, the skin white and the
temper irritable. These are often the
first symptoms of 'rickets." BY feed

Too many infants are literally starv-
ed because the mothers food does not
agree with them, and some mothers
are obstinately foolish enough to cling
to breast milk when they perceive it's
insufficiency.
When infants throw up their milk
or when they are not keeping up their
strength, especially during the hot
weather, it is plain there is trouble
with the food. Children mot doing

STORES UP THE LIGHT.
Remarkable Properties of Nitrate of
Uranium. ........

Professor NJ. Becquerel, OF Paris.
who recently discovered the rays OF
uranium, has in the course of his ex-
periments come to the very curious
conclusion that this metal, and 10
lesser extent its salt, emits rays very
similar to the Roentgen rays which
can pierce through Opaque objects, and
work the discharge of electric cur
rents, and retain these properties even
after they have been protected many
months from light visible TO us.
Some nitrates of uranium which Pro-
fessor Becquerel preserved under light
tight covers since May OF last year
were recently found to act uDon q
Photographic plate as powerfully as
before they were exposed 10 light.
THIS surpasses the property of all 9TH
er bodies as far as emitting phosphor-
escent rays are concerned, and pre-
sents a new conundrum to science as
to the real nature of uranilm rays.

The question as to whether Congress
will or will not Immediately take up the
currency revision il now looked upon
with much interest. There are two
sides to this question and both sides are
being carefully examined by those who
are to determine what the course Of
events is TO be in this particular. BY
many it is believed that, the special
work of the special session in the
passage of a tariff bill having been so
promptly and happily completed, the
country would prefer an opportunity to
adjust itself to the new conditions in
regard to the tariff before being brought
face to face with the currency problem.
Those who hold to this view believe
that it would better to defer any action
on the currency question until the re-
gular meeting Of congress in December
and give the country rest" Whether
this plan is determined upon or whether
currency commission shall be urged
upon congress at once is not fully de-
termined, but the public may rest
assured that there il no disposition on
the part Of the Administration to ds,ay
or trife with the currency question any
more than il has with the tariff.
