Why Snow Is White.

The pure white luster of snow is due
to the fact that all the elementary col
ors of light are blended together in the
radiance thrown off from the surface
of the crystal. 1t is quite possible to
examine the individual snow crystals
in such way as to detect these sew
eral colors before they are mingled to-
gether to constitute the compound i'm.
preston Of whiteness upon the eye.
The soft whiteness of the snow Is also
in some degree attributable to the large
quantity Of air entangled amid the
frozen particles. Snow Is composed Of
great number of minute crystals,
more than thousand distinct forms of
which have been enumerated by va
rious observers. These crystals and
prisms reflect all the compound rays
Of which white light consists. Sheets
of snow on the ground are known tc
reflect beautiful pink and blue tint.

To Preserve the Colors Of Flowers.

To Preserve the Colors OF Flowers.
The natural colors of flowers may be
preserved with almost their original
brilliancy after being dried very thor
oughly in sand. The Gardeners Month
ly, which suggests this simple process
for manufacturing artificial flowers,
states that the most delicate flowers
can be made in this way to look for
several years as though they had been
freshly gathered. The flower should
be placed in a pan or other dish and
covered with perfectly clean dry sand.
This should be sifted over the flower
so as not to break or bruise the petals.
Every chink and Granny should be filed
without disturbing the natural position
Of the leaves. When the pan is full and
every crevice has been filled solidly the
flowers are allowed to dry for several
days. 1t Is often found effective to
warm the sand and keep the buried
flower in a warm oven The sand
should them be removed, great care
being taken not to break or tear the
leaves, which will be very brittle.

How to Root SIina.

Take a shallow dish and all with
sharp sand; wet this very wet, but not
so that 1t will be muddy, or so that the
water will stand on the surface. Insert
the slips in this sand and never let 1t
get dried out; this is the secret Of sue.
cess-keep the sand wet all the time,
and remember that it dries out rapidly.
If you want to root geranium slip
choose one that is strong, large, healthy
and not woody.
Almost anything will root in this wet
sand. If you want to root a good many
slips. box or something that could be
covered with glass would be best. Fiji
this partially with sand, and have no
drainage; insert the slips and cover
with glass, put the box in sunny Win
dow and raise the back end so that the
box will be thrown with its entire sur
face to the sunshine. Slips will root
rapidly, and when well rooted they
may be transplanted.
If you begin early, you will have
plants for summer blooming, and those
that have bloomed during the winter
may take a rest and have their buds
pinched off to fit them for service an
other winter. 1t is fact that plant
will produce more flowers as it grows
older if it is cared for. OF course plants
may get too old, but ! think this is the
exception rather than the rule.
Now a word about pottinS rooted
slips; these must be handled with care,
and here is where the novice makes a
mistake. Do not put a tiny rooted slip
or good sized rooted slip into big pot,
use a very small one; it will not put the
plant back to transplant it from time to
time, it will do it good; it will make it
strong and stocky instead of letting it.
grow up spindling and weak.
Use drainage always in the bottom OF
the pot, and for the first potting use
rather poor soil, and put sand about
the roots at first. When the plant is
well established and growing well,
then transplant it to a pot one size
larger, and use as good soil as it may
require; if you use the regular flower
pots the potting is an easy matter, as
the plant may be taken out with all the
dirt about it's roots and reset without
much trouble.-The Household.

There are more wrinkles in the face
Of q baby monkey than there are in
that Of an old baboon. And speaking
of wrinkles, more Of them can be
wrought out in a fair, young face by
neuralgia than will be found in that of
an aged person. Constant pain will
shrivel, and neuralgia neglected will
plow its burrows deep. 1t not only
wrinkles, but takes the bloom away
and gives the skin dull and yellow
look. St Jacobs Oil is prompt and
sure cure for neuralgia, and it should
be used, as while it soothes and cures,
it smooths out the tracks of pain and
leaves the skin healthy and fair again;
besides it rids the sufferer of much
torment and restores a happier dispo-
sition. Good looks come only with good
health, and health is found in the aB-
sence of pain.

The Hartsville College, situated at

wilderness, and colleges we're scarce. The
college is well known throughout the
country, former students having gone
into all parts of the world.
A reporter recently called at this IA

at Plattsburg March q, 1911. Mr.. Edger-
academy, removed to Ohio in the spring
of 1887. In 1915 he was elected to the
Ohio State Senate from large territory
which embraced nearly ten Of the
present northwestern counties. He i'm
mediately took an active part on the side
Of the Democratic minority, and showed
himself master of the important finan-
cial questions which were the subject of
discussion in the Senate by the ablest
men of the State. Becoming prominent
by debate with the Wing leader, he was
mentioned as a candidate for the Govern
orship of the State. and he was alluded to
by ieadiag Democratic journal as san
able and talented statesman, while faith
fully adhering to sound Democratic prin-
cirles, his unimpeached private character,
high sense Of honor and sterling integrity
as gentleman, have commanded the re-
spect OF the most bitter opponents" So
even and consistent has been the long
career of Mr.. Edgerton that this early ex-
preston regarding him, may still be
truthiully quoted as an estimate of his
character. In 1850, after brilliant career
IN the State Senate, he was elected to the
United States House of Representatives,
md reelected in 1852. He was second on
the important Committee of Claims during
his first term and Chairman of that COM
mittee on his second term. On the floor
his arguments commanded the respectful
attention OF his associates. From 1858 to
1856 he held the important position of
Financial Agent OF the State of Ohio at
New York. In 1856 he was chairman of
e committee on organization of the
D ,mocratic National Convention held at
Cincinnati, and subsequently he was one
Of committee selected by the Legislature
# the state of Ohio to investigate the
frauds upon the State Treasury. In 1857
Mr.. Edgerton removed to Fort Wayne,
but retained his citizenship in Ohio until
S62. He became lessee of the Indiana
cinal, associated with Hugh McCullOch
and Pliny Hoagland, in 1859, and held the
position of general manager of the diyi-
siO from the State line to Terre Haute
until 1868. In January, 1868, he was nom-
mated by the Indiana Democratic State
Convention for Lieutenant Governor,
Thomas A. Hendricks being at the head
If the State ticket, which was defeated,
t will be remembered, by S6l votes. Other
Olitical positions he filled prior to the
after date were those Of delegate to the
Baltimore convention of 1913 and the
Chicago convention of 1854, but since 1858
he has not taken an active part in politics.
In 1872 he was rendered the nomination
Tor Governor of Indiana by the O'COnnOr
Democrats, Tut declined to endorse that
movement. He was for many years a
member of the School Board of Fort
Wayne, and resigned that position to ac-
cepta the appointment of Civil Service
Commissioner rendered him by President
Cleveland. This office he held until 1885.
The latter position, like all others, was
illed by him in manner satisfactory TO
his party, and his constituents, with
whom he has always been popular. In
private life Mr.. Edgerton was an accom-
pl shed and GENIAL gentleman, and was
acid in high esteem by the whole people.

Words Twenty Feet Long.

An instrument was recently exhibited
at the Royal Society Of Edinburgh by
which the minute marks On a photo
graph cylinder produced by music or
speech were multiplied about 1000
times, so that the form Of each vibrator
and the number of vibrations for any
given sound could be seen. Little
waves, each wave being vibration,
were recorded on a long ribbon of
paper.
The inventor accomplished this by
taking advantage Of the principle Of
Lord Kelvin's siphon recorded. In max
ing an observation the monograph cyl
'nder was moved about 1000 times
slower than when 1t gave out the sound
and the vibrations occurring in half
second of time were spread along a rib
bon Of paper twenty feet in length.
thus each vibration could be seen.
With regard to human speech, an in
spection of one of these curves proves
that word such as "Constantinople,"
or, indeed, any other word, was simply
a collection of musical or other sounds
running rapidly into each other.
The musical sounds Of the vowels
predominated, but the so-called con-
sonants were often also musical sounds
more or less distinct.
The word above mentioned contained
700 or 900 vibrations, according to the
time that it dwelt on each tone.
Each vowel had its own pitch. 1t
would be impossible by looking at the
curves to read off the word, as two
tracings Of the same word would rarely
if ever be alike, because it was almost
impossible to speak word twice with
exactly the same quality Of tone and
emphasis.

Remarkable Ears.

Jean Baptiste Verre, laborer, Is
mentioned in the French Academy pro-
ceedings of 1922 as having ears SO long
that they projected above the top of his
head. They possessed the power Of
motion, and, being the cause of great
modification to him, he had them cut
down to something near the ordinary
size of human ears and concealed the
stumps beneath his long hair.
