Prospective Shortage of Oxygen.

Persons who happen to be incon-
venienced by dearth of anxieties are
invited to agitate their spirits by
contemplation of the prospect of a
shortage of oxygen in the atmos-
phere. It seems that there are well
informed persons, Lord Kelvin
among them, who find reason to be-
lieve that this calamity is impend-
ing The figures (estimated) in the
case are that the world uses annual
ly $500, 600, 900 tons of oxygen for
breathing purposes and nearly half
as much for fires, This is big con-
sumption. To repair it we rely on
vegetation, which we are pretty con-
stantly restricting. So we use more
and more oxygen all the time and
make less and less.
No wonder Lord Kelvin says the
earth is undergoing "a steady loss
of oxygen. AS yet, though, the at
mosphsre does not show it, and it
may be few thousand years yet be-
fore the difference will be measur-
able To the shortsighted the pros
pect may not seem distressing, but
folks who need anxieties should not
neglect this one, since, after all, in
anxieties and ancestry and such
things little remoteness does no
harm. -Harper's Weekly.

Preventable Diseases.

Hear what a great scientist writes
"More than half a million people
die every year from diseases that
are called preventable or filth or
germ diseases. They are so called
because they could be prevented.
They are derived from filth and
they are caused by germs.
1.-The lax sanitation of the great
cities of America causes pollution of
the water, soil and air Of the land.
People drink polluted water, breathe
polluted air and live on polluted
soils. AS consequence they are
poisoned The instructive remedy
appears to be alcohol. Sewer gas
and the general products of the pu-
trefaction Of dead organic matter
poison the blood, depress the spirits,
weaken the appetite and digestion,
and the people drink alcohol.
II believe the great cause Of learn
ing to drink is sickness and poor
sanitation and that is what makes
prohibitory laws difficult or impos-
sible. The way to secure prohibition
is to Danish disease and disease in
fection from the earth. The disease
poisons are the constituents of King
Alcohol. If they are banished, he
will labdicate without waiting to be
prohibited.

Alaska.

The area of the United States be-
fore the purchase of Alaska was
1888, 666 square miles. Alaska con-
tains $50, 900 square miles of main
land, 1000 square miles of the Aleu-
tan islands and %, 900 square miles
Of other islands, a total of 579, 900
square miles, or one-ffth of the area
Of the rest of the United States. It
requires the areas of California,
Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Mon
tana and New York to equal this.
The area of New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia equals only
one-half of Alaska. 1t equals the
combined area Of Great Britain and
Ireland, France, Germany, Belgium
and the Netherlands. It stretches
from latitude 81 degrees to II de-
grees and from longitude 100 de-
grees to 1873 degrees. - Overland

The Forcing Process of the Age as Seen
In Precocious Children.

The Forcing Process of the Age as Seen
In Precocious Children.
We've have they gone to-the little girls,
With natural manners and natural curls,
Who love their dollies and like their toys
And talk of something besides the boysP
Little old women in plenty find
Mature Of manners and old of mind
Little old firts who talk of their "beaus''
And vie with each other in stylis clothes
"There are no little girls nova
days" remarked a woman, speak
ing of party she had attended,
where children of s and 10 years
had danced and supped, perfect lit
tie counterparts of their elders.
ut is enough to make ones heart
ache to listen to these little old
women, was the response. "They
are blase at 10, and heaven pity
them at 1911 They will have sucked
their orange so dry that life will be
a juiceless husk. It is an ordinary
occurrence for these small slips to
have their own matinee parties, and
the subsequent discussion of vaude-
vile places some older women as
learners at their feet. To be sure,
these tots have chaperon, but the
next older set of girls buy their own
matinee tickets and chaperon them
selves. Won't our girls begin to
think us strict if we deny them
like privilege, and will they soon an
nounce that papa is not needed as
an escort, for all the other girls
have boys go home with them3'
How do you suppose they amuse
themselvesS
" Elaine, you be seated and play
you are young lady. will be a
gentleman calling upon you, said
Lillian the other afternoon, and
for two hours those 8-year-olds ex-
changed society commonplace and
bonmots with the poise and express
sion Of genuine society women,
while the onlooker longed for some
power to startle them out Of their
horrible artificial composure and
turn them into artless, merry chill
dren.
"You remember Mrs. FrenchS She
actually moved from one part of the
city to another in order to place her
children in a school where some
thing was talked about besides the
number of diamonds each respective
mother possessed or the latest thing
in gowns. She said that when Maud
announced that unless a new gown
was forthcoming she could not play
in the next musical she felt the poi
son had begun to work, and her
only safety lay in flight"
The friend exclaimed in reply:
"What a parody the whole thing is
The few natural children one occa-
sionally stumbles upon are actually
pitied by their mates because they
have no fun Truly it is enough
to make an angel weep, for these
little abnormal specimens are chill
dren of we'll to do, we'll bred Ameri-
can parents and are simply victims
of the forcing process so typical of
our age. While you pity them
think of the possible children they
may mother and. pray that it may
soon become the fad for children

Vet Horace Greeley Made Sir william
Russell Understand John Brown.
A tall, lean, careworn old man,
with wan face and unkempt gray
hair tumbled any way on his head,
keen eyes and mobile lips, dressed
in an i'll fitting seedy suit of black,
twisted neckoloth with the ends
hanging anyhow over a crumpled
shirt, called on me early in the day
at the Clarendon and plunged in
medals res by asking me whether !
had "grasped all the facts of the
great victory achieved in Mr.. Lin
coins election-that is, sir, If the
president knows how to use it.
There is the victory! What are the
fruits of 1t to bef' I candidly con-
fessed that was like man cropping
his way through wood in the dark.
"There is no darkness, sirl It is all
light to those who open their eyes
and wish to see. Then and there
he bound me to come over and
breakfast with him next morning.
II will let you see the light and
know the TRUTH / shall have pa
pers ready for you. You can give
me a couple of hours, l supposed"
l kept my tryst, found my way to
his room by the aid of his "help."
Opening his door, l beheld piles of
newspapers, books and pamphlets
on the chairs, on the floor, on the
table at which he sat, with proofs
laid out, something like ship
wrecked mariner on a reef drying
his clothes in the sun, but the con-
fusion of the scene and the want of
comfort in the look of the place and
of the man were speedily forgotten.
After few words of courteous wei
come Horace Greeley proceeded to
expound his doctrines concerning
"chattel slavery" which, he was
careful to remind me, had first been
introduced by Englishmen into
America. He spoke with earnest
ness which commanded attention,
now and then reading a passage
from a book or a pamphlet, occa-
sionally DEPRESSING to heave rhetor-
ical bricks against Mr.. Buchanan
and southerners whose names was
not familiar with.
An hour passed, and still he went
on. l was hungry, and heard no
clink Of cups and saucers. After
another hour / looked at my watch.
"Bear with me a little longeri I
wish you to understand clearly the
villainous Vaccinations by which
these scoundrels mastered the peo-
pie, blinded them, destroyed their
moral sense, degraded the legislature
and corrupted the administration of
the law" etc. For another hour
and ten minutes sat, and still the
food poured on. Mr.. Greeley had
forgotten all about breakfast. Ihad
not. Besides, ! had engagements
to keep. AS he was rising to the
height of his great argument, with
many apologies for the interruption,
I said l must go. "But you will
come back againG l have some
more important matters to explain
to you, and was only just breaking
ground" Inever saw Horace Gree
ley again. / went to Washington
