iN Relation to Members of the Ontario

In many of our Jurisdictions reside
members of the withdrawn Ontario juris-
dlctlon who desire to sever their conncc-

supreme lodge has therefore issued cir
cular to the effect that such members may
unite with the loyal lodges near which they
reside by rcnouncing their membership in
the seeded lodge of Ontario. To this end
they are required to sign an agreement,
blanks for which will be furnished hy

eral districts of the California jurisdiction
to capture the prize of 81 600 that has been

seen in the counting room of the mer-
chant and on the table of the artisan
Moreover, we are all countrymen. The
citizens are always abroad i'll the land.
Every summer sends thousands of the
town people into the country. Every
day sees the city and village bicyclist
or eXcursionist by carriage in the most
remote places where he can find road
bed good enough for him.
1t is easier to begin movement or
organize Il society in the city than in
the country, but the good roads organi-
cations which may begin in town may
be expected to spread everywhere. The
people who use the roads most and who
have the most to gain by their improve
ment may be expected to welcome
every movement which will do them
good. Thoughtful people must, ON re-
Election, conclude that something is
wrong, since i'll all the advances made
i'll transportation methods there has
been little or no reform in road trans
portatiOn, which is at the beginning of
all movement of commodities and of
persons.
Railway travel today is greatly i'm
proved over what it was a quarter of a
century ago. Steamship transportation
has been made more luxurious and
cheaper. Yet the average country road
OF today is no better, and in many places
worse, than it was i'll the days of our
fathers. We have faster horses; we
have vastly more elegant and comfort
able carriages, but we are content to
work our horses and rack our vehicles
over the same sort of highway that
served for the old two wheeled cart
Moreover, there is reason to believe
that the amount of time and money
spent i'll keeping up the roads would, if
properly expended, produce better re-
suits than are now obtained. Railways
are built by engineers and experts ac-
cording to well understood systems
Every improvement that can be devised
is applied to all the railways as soon as
it satisfies the test of experience. The
builders of steamships do not adhere to
the old methods Il day longer than they
are known to be the best, but in the
making of the highway there is as yet
i'll this country very little attempt to
apply the latest and best methods OF to
utilize the skill of experts.
Road reform is one of the needsof the
day. The Eiission has nothing sensa-
tional or thrilling about it, but it con-
tains the promise of large saving in
horses, money and in the tissues of
men and women. 1t promises cheaper
transportation, increased travel by road,
more life and stir i'll the country places
and a new attraction to rural life. st.

Why Ice Is More Slippery Than Glass.

Ice has the property-peculiar to bod
les which expand on freezing-of lique-
flying under pressure and solidifying
again when the pressure has been re-
moved. Consequently the weight of any
body moving upon sheet of ice causes
the formation of a thin layer of water
which separates it from the ice, and
thus, by reducing the friction to min
imum, enables it to move smoothly over
the surface-i. e., makes the ice more
slippery. On glass, on the contrary,
this liquid medium is wanting, so that
the two solid and unyielding bodies
come into actual physical contact, caus-
ing friction which, in spite of the
smoothness of the glass, considerably
rctards the motion of the body. If two
smooth sheets of glass be taken and
few drops of water sprinkled over the
one and the other placed above it,
thin layer of water will be formed, and
until this layer has been pressed out the
upper glass will move on the other as
smoothly as if on ice. This peculiar
property of ice is due to the effect of
pressure in lowering the freezing point
of water, so that whenever ice is sub
Jected to great pressure it partially

soiSGM'S PROCESS FOR SEPARATING

Details of the Plan.

Thomas A. Edison, who has spent
fHOut 50, 600, coo, most of it his own
money III taking iron ore from the
earth and separating it from pulverized
rock by means of magnets, has annOunc-
cd that the process is II success.
In an interview in The Electric Re-
view he said that he believed the proc
ess had been developed thoroughly
After explaining about the deposits of
iron ore i'll New Jersey and the scarcity
OF iron ore, which has been disturbing
the mills of the east, he outlined the
work to which, he has been devoted for
nearly eight years 1t is applying on a
scale of many thousands of tons day

particles OF ore from the pulverized

We're made under his direction by sew
eral corps Of men, included whole
strip trCm lower Canada to the Great
Smoky mountains of North Carolina,
for the purpose of locating the best de-
pOslts of IRON.
After being crushed in big mill the
ore is carried from one mill to another,
by means of Il system of belt and bucket
c0nveyors, either to storehouse or to
the magnet house If to the latter, the
