SUGAR INvleoRATEs THE BODY.
Consumption of n Small Quantity Suf-

bConsumption of n Small Quantity Suf-
6cient to Revive Tired Muscles.
Experiments of an interesting nature
have lately been made at the instiga-
ifion of the Prussian war Office to en-
tdeavor to decide the question as to
whether the consumption of small
quantities of sugar renders the tired
muscles capable OF renewed eXertion.
I'm order to obtain practical result, the
person who was made the subject of the
experiment was kept totally ignorant
of the object of the eXperimentcrs. On
Gne day, says the New York Medical
Record, sweet liquor was admins
tered. containing 80 grams of sugar;
ON the next day similar liquid, con-
tanning sufficient amount of sac
charine to render IL indistinguishafble
from the other as regarded taste. Aft
Eer very large amount of muscular
awork had been performed it was found
that better results could be obtained on
the days when the sugar was given than
on the days when saccharine was given.
The blood had become very poor in
sugar in consequence of the severe
muscular effort, and the administra-
lion of n comparatively small quantity
iuf sugar had n markedly invigorating
effect

What Constitutes n Nugget Depends
Upon Ones Expectations.
There are Klondilles nearer home if
people could only have the luck to
strike them. At down station on the
elevated road, says the New York Sun,
there got off train, late in the after
noon, about dozen passengers, includ-
ing one woman. The woman passenger
had in her right arm three or four
bundles and book; with her left hand
she carried sizable telescope travel
Ing bag, with straps around it, and Il
handle. At the head of the stairs lead
ing to the street the woman stopped, set
down the bag, gathered up her skirts
with her free hand, and then picked up
the bag again and started down.
AT the foot of the stairway stood a
very slim newsboy, Offering papers to
the passengers as they came down.
Three steps up stood another slim boy
without any papers. AS the woman
approached the second boy pointed to
the heavy telescope bag she was carry
ing, and said:
Ten cents"
He would really have carried it for
five, but she never asked him to; she
handed it right over.
He stepped down the three steps and
out upon the side; and when she had
stepped out, too, and started, he swung
the telescope case up on his shoulder
and stepped promptly along beside her.
His face was immovable, but there was
Joy in his eager step.
He had found a nugget.

BURGLARS BUGBEAR:
Terrors Electricity Has for the Pro-
fesHlonnI MOusebrcnIScr.


fcsstcnnI Housebrcnkcr.
In an article George He'll Guy demon
strates that in these days of electricity
the life of the burglar is not an easy
one, says the Chautauquan. Mr.. Guy
writes as follows: 1T has been truly
said that it is easier for camel to go
through the eye OF a needle than for a
burglar to make a successful raid on Il
building completely equipped with
electric-nlarm devices. 1t is not at all
necessary that the occupants of the
premises shall take any active part in
resisting the burglary. They can lie
quietly in bed and yet be aware OF
every movement of the unsuspecting
thief below. He may touch the wire OF
the fence inclosing the grounds, or
tread on the door mat, or open a win
dow, or tampcr with lock, or cut
through wood panel. In any of these
cases an alarm is telegraphed all over
the house and at the police station and
even If the cracksman should get inside
the house an invisible wire, stretched
across the hall or threading the corrid-
ors, may at any moment swing upon
him the barrel swivel gun and dis
charge its contents simultaneously.
The electric fire-alarm is equally trust
worthy. 1t is sounded at the fire station
by the operation Of Il thermostat in any
room in which the temperature has
been raised above certain point by an
incipient fire."

THE QUEEN BEHIND THE FINGER.
Lillian CciI Gets Her First Taste of
IL LihcrtN in Englnmd.

1iIinn rcil Gets Her First Tnstc of
n,..i Liberty in England.
Miss Lillian Bell, who is narrnting her
impressions of the old world and its
people for the Ladies' Home Journal,
writes from London: 81 have seen the
houses of parliament and the tower
and Westminster abbey, and tho
worlds fair, but the most impressive
sight ever bebeld is the upraiscd hand
of London policeman. never heard
one of them speak except when spoken
to. But let one little blue-coated man
raise his forefinger and every vehicle
on wheels stops, and stops instantly;
stops in obedience to law and order;
stops without swearing or gesticulat-
ing or abuse; stops with no underhand-
ed trying to drive out OF line and get
by on the other side; just stops, that is
the end of it, And why? Because the
queen of England is behind that raised
finger. Why, n London policeman has
more power than our president. Even
the queens coachmen obey that fore
finger. Understanding how to obey,
that is what makes liberty.
II am the most flamboyant of Amer
leans, the most hopelessly addicted to
my own country, but must admit that
had my first real taste of liberty in
England. 1 will tell you why. In Amer
lea nobody obeys anybody. We make
our laws, and then most industriously
set about studying out 4 plan by which
we may evade them. America is suf-
fering, as all republics must of neces-
sity suffer, from liberty in the hands
of the multitude. The multitude are
ignorant, and liberty in the hands of
the ignorant is always license"

lCurious Facts Shown by n Census OF
Those who PrRcticcd in 1870.
In the year 1920, under the authority
of the state of New York an enumera-
zion of the lawyers entitled to practice
at the state or local courts was made.
The regulations for admission to the
bar at that time, says the New York
Sun. were simple and easy to comply
with. Nevertheless there were found to
be only three lawyers on Staten Island,
15 in Westchester, 60 in Albany, and d5
i'm Onondega. Monroe county had not
Hhen attained the distinction which it
has had since the growth of Rochester
into city and it had within its borders
only II lawyers, while Columbia coun-
Nv, which has since given to the bar of
the state many learned jurists, had SO,
and Dutchess county sc. The people of
Aong Island were even less inclined to
litigation then than they are now, for
In the whole of Suffolk county there
vverc six lawyers only, in Queens coun-
Nv there were but two, and in Kings
county Gt is very different now) there
nRere three only.
In Boone county there were five law
yers, in Greene 21, in Putnam three, in
Steuben 10, and in Tioga IA; but per-
haps the lawyer of that period who en-
5oyed what might in these days be
called an easy snap was the one member
of the New York bar who resided in
Orleans county. After 1920 there was
R1rge increase of lawyers in New York
state and in 1884 they numbered 2,oS4.

do not express their own opinions. They
have made up their minds upon evidence
presented in convincing form from many
sources. They do not hesitate to lay in
large stocks because they have every rea-
son to believe that business will be good.
But these merchants could not, ON this
faith alone, secure the liberal credits
which are being extended to them. The
fact that 1t is known in New York that
the south is prospecting and that legiti-
mate bases Of credit are offered to all le-
ultimate business men by the prospects
OF this section must be considered. All

The Significance of Hannas Case

In 1890 David X. Watson was Attorney
General of Ohio. He was a conscientious
man, mindful Of his oath and his obliga-
tions. Finding that the Standard Oil
Company was fiagrantlv violating the
law, he instituted proceedings to stop II
from doing business in Ohio. The World
yesterday told the story of how Mark
Hanna, taking the ground that mo man
in public Office owes the public anything
endeavOred to cajole or compel Attorney
General Watson to abandon these pro-
ceedings.
So far as the Individual man Mark Han
ma, is concerned, the affair is OF small
consequence. 1t only adds to mountain
OF proof as to his unfitness for election to
the Senate, and to the scandal of his re-
cognition as power behind and close to
the Presidential chair. But the case Is
Illustrative. 1t illustrates the arrogance
and insolence Of plutocracy, 1t shows
with how little regard for the rights of
the people, or for the obligation Of public
officers, or for the sanctity of their oaths,
men or mere wealth assume to control
public officers and compel them to serve,
not the people who pay them, but the
trusts, rings and monopolists who con-
tribute campaign funds.
The Hanna system in Its last analysis
means that all responsible public Offices
shall be purchased by aggregated wealth
for lncumbents who win Loyalty serve
their masters; that neither honor nor
oaths. nor the direct specifications of the
law shall count for anything where the
interests OF aggregated wealth are con-
cerned; that even crime itself is to be
treated with respect II committed by men
who count their wealth by millions and
whose consplraries against Need are for
the qualification Of Greed.
The outcome of such system is not
difficult to see, but ii is appalling to con-
template. This is what pltitOcracy means
fol. the people, and II the people would
put an end to 1t they must begin by de-
stroying the influence and the political
power of the Hannas who are its apostles
and agents,-N. Y. World.
