The sun shrlnlss Every par.

The usual Christmas course of lee.
lures was begun at the Royal Institu'
tion by Sir Robert Ball. The sun, he
pointed out, was the source Of all the
heat received by this earth. Now, it
was a well-known fact that most
things in cooling became smaller; q
poker for instance, was shorter when
it was cold than when it was red hot.
The sun, too, must obey this funda-
mental law, and must therefore be
getting smaller. If we could measure
its diameter on two successive days
we should find It had decreased by
nine inches--that was to say, it was
shrinking at the rate Of, roughly FIVE
feet week, or a mile in every twenty
years. In view Of this shrinkage, some
of the younger members Of his audi
ence might feel anxious lest the sun
should not last their time. Such anxi-
ETY., however, was groundless; he was
100000 miles in diameter, so it would
take 10000 years for him to be reduced
y2000 to S5S,000 and the lecturer was
sure that if there were two suns in the
sky, one 100000 miles in diameter and
the other S5S,000, no one would be able
to tell by looking at them which Of the
two was the smaller. But as the sun
was shrinking nine inches every day,
and had been doing so for ages, it fol-
lowed that in the past he was very
much greater than he was now. But
he always had the same amount Of
material in him and weighed no heavi-
er than at present; hence the infer
ence was that he was once a huge
mass of rarefied CASA great, glowing
nebula.-London Times.

hope so, but
Even those persons who pay no at
tention to the usual dream are likely
to be affected by the warning dream
that comes three times. A woman
who prided herself on her superiority
to such things as superstitions dreamed
one night that her husband was
brought home dead, and that he had
been killed while walking along the
street. The dream was so realistic
that it made an impression on her
mind, and she recounted it to her fam
lily. A long time afterward the same
dream in all the same details came
again. Later 1t still cropped up in a
third and absolutely last appearance.
Even the man himself was somewhat
alarmed by that time, while those who
knew of the warning dream looked
upon him as doomed and as good as
dead. For fifteen long years after
ward the woman daily fortified her
self to endure the shock. Then she
passed away, while the man lived ten
years longer and finally died peace
fully and in order in his own bed. Al
though there are cases in which COM
ing events have cast their shadows in
dreams, still the great majority Of
dreams mean absolutely nothing. 1t
is almost a waste Of good dream hours
to devote them to solving mathemati-
cal problems and such things, although
1t is undoubtedly a great saving Of
daytime energy. COndorcqt, who
finished a train Of calculations in his
sleep that had puzzled him greatly in
his waking hours, and Colerldge, who
composed "Kubla Kahn" in his sleep,
belong to the list Of dream workers.
There are those who never dream.
1t is such unfortunates who prate Of
soundless and dreamless slumbery as
about the best thing in the line, There
are those who never read fiction md
who have never seen a good play.
Their argument is what good does 1t
do?" or "What is the sense" They
miss a great deal, but they never
know 1t, which is perhaps just as well.
But to have never overcome time,
space and all realities in a dream
that is a real mlsfortune!-NewY York

The Masters Compliment.

1t was before one of the masters Of
the instrument that young lady who
had for years been studying the piano,
secured permission to play 'triap so
as to satisfy herself as to whether she
had been as well taught and well
grounded in the rudiments Of the art
as she believed she had been. The
piece she selected to play was one Of
the brilliant bits such as only an artist
can perform satisfactorily. She blum
dered through it, as she thought, in
brilliant fashion, and then leaned back
with a satisfied air to hear the pro-
nouncement Of the master. He drew
a long breath, motiOned her aside,
took his seat at the plano and played
the selection as 1t should have been
played in his opinion. She hardly rec
ognized it, Then he turned to her and
said politely as possible:
"Out Of the notes that you dropped
when you played that piece, Miss,
there could be made another brilliant
piece, already. York Times.

QUEER INsuRhNeE CLAIMS.
One Wanted Damages For Black Eye Ro
ceived at Peaoe Meeting.


ceived at Peaoe Meeting.
The other day one Of the best-known
English accident insurance companies
received claim for $50. The insurer
had received blow in the eye which
compelled him to stay in a dark room
for month. In the column cause of
accident were written the sardonic
words "Went to a peace meeting"
The unusual candor with which some
of the insured write is amusing. In a
recent case, in which a client had suf-
fered from broken collar bone, there
appeared under the heading "cause Of
accident" do not know QntoXicat-
ed"
Some clients imagine that If they do
not send a minutely detailed account
Of the accident they will receive no
compensation. 1t Is only in this way
that one can account for this state
ment 81 had words with my wife.
She came toward me with a shovel,
and in leaving the room l trlpped over
the mat and sprained my ankle"
Here is a claim for injured feelings:
81 was returning from business yester-
day, when my brother-in-law entered
the train. He called me an idle rogue,
and by doing so degraded me before
all the passengers. Can recover dam
ages from your companyW
A well-known American insurance
company once received n claim from a
woman whose husband was insured
against total disablement. She said:
"My husband is quite unable to write.
He had a serious fall last week, and
the doctor says he will never be able
to work again." Doctors and magis-
trate's certificates to this effect were
inclosed AS the certificates were
somewhat curiously worded, the com
pany made inquiries and found that
their highly respectable client had
been lynched.
Many of the genuine claims are eX-
ceedingly comic. "Bitten by an ader'
Csic) and "knelt on by a BULL" show
the curious accidents that happen to
country people.
Trapped finger in a cash till' is
decidedly suggestive.
Some of the domestic accidents have
their lighter side. One cannot but
be amused at the hard working house
wife who claims damages because a
clothespeg fell from the line and struck
her in the eye. We can imagine, also,
that it was a youthful husband, who,
full of anxiety to see his charming
young wife, caught hold Of an insecure
door-knob, which gave way and pre-
clpitated him headlong down a fight
of steps. Half dozen accidents a
years are caused by coal "eXploding" in
the fire.
Either painters have a more repre-.
hensible habit of dropping their paint
pots on passers-by or else insured
people spend the bulk of their time
under painters ladders. Insurance
companies always regard claims for
damages done by paint with little
suspicion
Surely the gentleman who put the
lighted end of his cigar in his mouth
never expected to get compensation?
A servant girl, carrying a tray, fell
down stairs and broke her leg. She
was uninsured, and, Of course, got
nothing, but in her fall she burst open
the door of a room in which n man
was shaving. In his fright he gashed
his chin badly and his claim for COM
pensatiOn was paid.-London Mail.

Where Newspapers Don't Discuss Politics

Where Newspapers Don't Discuss Politics
1t is in Russia and Turkey, of all
European States, that the press cen
sorship is most vigorously exercised.
The newspapers Of Russia. for in
stance, are forbidden to discuss pollt-
zeal affairs, which causes an absence
OF leading articles Tor edtOrials),
and so concern themselves mainly
with literary or scientific matters; for
eign books and periodicals entering
the country are frequently mutilated
by the authorities, portions Of even
such a work as an encyclopaedia being
occasionally blocked out.
The censorship in Turkey has been
honOred by the ridicule Of Mark Twain
in "The InnOcents Abroad" "Imag-
ine," he says, "the Grand Vizier, in
solemn council with the magnates Of
the realm, spelling his way through
the hated newspapers, and finally de-
liverng his profound decision. This
thing means mischief; it is too darllly,
too suspiciously inoffensive; suppress
it, warn the publishers that we can
not have this sort of thing; put the
editor in prison" There are not more
than 10000 newspaper readers in all
Turkey, according to an interesting ar.
ticle by Frederic Whyte, writing on
Journalism in Turkey in Sells
Worlds Press, and the newspaper ed
tor has to contend with the most Sc
we're and illogical censorship, Of which
