We say ''sew' but likewise few
And the maker of a verse

Cord is different from word
Cow is COW, but slow" Is low;
Shoe is never rhymed with foe
Think of hose and dose and LOSE
And of .'goose'-and yet Of CHOOSE
Think OF comb and tomb" and bomb
Doll and roll" and ''home' and some
And since "pay" is lhymed with say
Why not paid with said l pray?
We have "blood" and flood" and good
.Monid'' is not pronounced like could"
Wherefore" DONE" but gone and "lone:'
Is there any reason known?
And, in short, it seems to me
Sound and letters disagree.

EXPLOSION IN POWDER

EXPLOSION IN POWDER MILL.
Columbus, Kan, March 15.--One
of the glaze mills and one of the
mixing mills of the Laflin-Rand
Powder works blew up here at II
o'clock today, damaging the plant
about $4,000 and destroying 500 bar
rels of powder. Walter Reed, the
foreman in the glaze mill, was in.
stantly killed and one or two 9TH
ers barely escaped the same fate.
The two mills were located about
$50 yards apart, connected by large
shafting. The west mill followed
in about twenty seconds. The lat.
ter explosion is supposed to have
been caused by conclusion. Wal
ter Reed, the young man who was
killed, was in the glaze mill. 1t is
not known what he was doing at
the time of the explosion, nor is the
cause of the explosion in that mill
known.
Reeds head hands and feet were
severed from his body, and scat.
tered among the debris. His broth
er, Bert Reed, was burned to death
about one year ago while asleep in

The interest lately excited in EnE@
land in what is known as the red
light treatment" of smallpox. wherein
the patient is confined in a room into
which only red light is admitted. calls
attention TO the remarkable way in
which modern science seems to re-
vive and reform emperical methods
of the past. Even so far back as the
reign of Edward ", smallpox pa
tients were treated by wrapping them
in red covers and putting red balls in
the bed. 1t was thus that John of
Gaddesden treated a Prince Of Wales.
This method has also been noticed as
popular custom in Roumania. In
recent years. too, French surgeon
has told of sman-pox patients in Ton
cuin being isolated in alcoves almost
darkened by red carpet hangings. and
of wonderful cures ensuing. In Japan
the patients were covered by red
blankets, and the children given red
toys to play with.-Chicago News.
