GET THE BEST.

Every live business man knows that cheap advertising is always the dear est. If you have something good to place before the public put it where it can be seen and give it some mag netic qualities. The same rule ap- plies to communities that have some thing good to sell or give away. Cheap pamphlets, misfit souvenirs and pri- vate puffs find their proper goal in the waste basket, but a piece of lit erature, like volume of the Treas ure Land" series, is read with inter est and prized as standard work It is handed around and placed on li- brary shelves, and does not lose it's value for years.

doubt as TO tho absolute exclusion of light in
these experiments. Bocquerel certainly proved
that different compounds of uranium, II allowed
to remain on a sensitive plate for some days, had
considerable action on the film, and II the plato
was developed in the ordinary way, q photograph
Of the object was obtained.
DR.. Russell now seems to have proved that
this particular action is by no means confined to
the uranium salts. Many of tho common sub
stances with which we are surrounded have APP
parently the property OF emitting invisible
active radiations which can pass through many
bodies that VIC have been in the habit of regard
ing Us opaque. Many metals and other bodies,
such as wood, charcoal, copal, and straw, pos
scss IT. in a marked degree. But the radiations
OF these bodies differ In one important particu-
lar from those Of the uranium compounds. The
latter readily pass through glass, while tho
former arc completely stopped by 1t.
Starting with metals, mercury, zinc, cadmium,
magnesium. nickel, aluminium, pewter, lead,
bismuth, tin. and some others, after q weeks OK
posure near n sensitive plate in the dark, pro-
duced n distinct effect upon the plate. Gold,
platinum and iron were found to be without
any action, while that of copper was very slight.
The action is not in any way due to contact
phenomena, as a polished surface OF zinc with a
design scratched on 1t gave q distinct image of
the markings when not touching tho plate, and
even when thin screens OF guttapercha or ccllu.
loid were interposed between the sensitive plate
and the zinc surface. Some metals were then
coated with copal varnish to see II this would
interfere with the effect. 1t was found that the
image was moro rather than less distinct.
In some experiments cardboard pill boxes were
used for inclosing the substances before allow
ing them to act upon the plate. 1t was found
that an empty box emitted active radiations,
giving a most distinct image. The better quail
ties OF cardboard were quite inactive, while the
commoner sorts, known as strawboHrds. had
considerable action on the plates. A section OF
n young larch tree gave an excellent image
showing rings and layers of bark. Charcoal also
showed considerable activity. which 1t lost after
being heated for several hours in a CLOSED
crucible. Three newspapers gave excellent
pictures Of the printing.
Two points seem to have been established with
regard to this mysterious force, the nature o
which has still to be discovered. The first il
that an increase Of the temperature OF thu
object greatly increases Its activity; the second
that aqueous vapor in no way assists the action
Bodies which at freezing point had no actor
