This was the way the serious ques-
ton Of an age limit for mechanics and
laborers was put by one Of the speak
ers at a meeting of the Chicago Fede-
ration Of Labor. Some of the railroads
and large manufacturing establish

81 years old. and mechanics are dis
charged at the age of As years by these
concerns because they are too old. Ma
chinists, carpenters and men in other
trades testified that similar age limit

Carl snyngr Claims That America Ex-
ccpt in Astronomy Has Taken No
Part

AT "a time when the rapid progress of
the United States toward the position
of primary among the nations Is eNcit-
ing the wonder of the world one is
startled by the mere suggestion that
there is any sphere of human enterprise
in which the young republic lags be-
hind her rivals. Such "a suggestion is
made by Carl Snyder i'm the North Am
eriCan RevieW to which he contributes
an article entitled Americas inferior
place i'm the scientific world America
has produced great men OF science, such
as Franklin, Count Bumford, simon
NeWCOmb and others, yet. according to
Mr. Snyder with the single exception
of astronomy there is no branch of
science i'm the recent development of
which America has taken even an in
significant part That may be due to
the fact that we have no such institu-
tions as the college of France, In Paris,
and the Royal institution, i'm London,
which provide opportunity for learned
men to pursue their researches system
auCaly. Mr.. Snyder illustrates his con-
teutiuus with instances drawn from
various departments of Investigations:
Pasteurs memorable discovery that
the fermentation of beer was due solely
to the presence of minute organisms
microbes was made early in the COS.
That was 40 years ago. Step by step
the ideas Of PastCur grew and broaden
ed. Applied to the disease of the vines
then to dying silk worms, then to sheep
cholera, they are estimated, before his
death to have saved to France alone a
sum greater than the cost of the Prus-
sian war, with the colossal indemnity
demanded by Bismarck thrown in. Pas
/ tours own researches eliminated i'm the
germ theory of contagious A young
English surgeon, now Lord Lister, ap-
piled his idea to the method of surgical
operations; this step was enormous.
Today operations are common that were
unheard of 80 or 40 years ago; unknown
diseases, such as aDnendiCitis, have
been discovered, and a radical cure has
/ been found for them. Germans, like
Behring and Koch, japanese like Tita-
satO, a 'rowd of disciples and followers
of the Master, as he is known In
France, have extended Pasteurs ideas
to the treatment of diptheria, lockiaw
anthrax and many other scourges.
Thanks to him, hydrophobia has been
robbed of its terrors. At last, medicine
begins dimly to emerge from Quackery
and empiriCism, and bids fair in time to
become a true science. All this belongs
to the present day, most of it to the
| last decade or so, yet In all this brill
| liant list of discoveries and applications
no American name is to be found; even
! though we have a larger number of
medical schools medical professors and
medical students than any other Coun-
/ try in the world.

Insurance policies on King Edward S
life have been issued for sums ranging
from $4,000 to 100000 by Toronto Insur-
ance companies. and the Montreal COM
panies, according to the STAR Of that

is a $l5,OOJ,O0O risk TO British companies
of which 100000 is carried by trades

Men who drink may not know it,"
said an old barkeeper, but the man be-
hind the bar knows as much about the
kind Of whisky the customer likes as
the customer himself knows. The fact
of the business is that it is the easiest
thing in the world to impose on the
average man. The only thing the bar
keeper has to learn is the character of
the whisky a man drinks, whether it
Is strong or mild You take the aver
age man who visits saloons, and who
claims to be a good judge of whisky,
and, when you come to look into it, you
Will find that he goes altogether by the
smOothness of taste or the strength of
the article you give him. Bad whisky
is sometimes strong and sonnet times
mild, and the result is that the man
who depends upon the effect whisky

Unless a man is really an expert in
the business-and there are few eX-
perts, in spite of the claims of men
who are counted among the regular
whisky drinkers-it is really a very
hard thing for him to tell one kind. of
whisky from another. OF course there
are men who can tell one kind of
whisky from another. There are men
who are really good judges of whisky.
they cannot be fooled But with the
average man it is an easy thing for the
barkeeper to practice the art of de-
ception, if he is inclined to do so. The
customer will not know the difference.
Ii is really a very simple matter. All
the barkeeper has to do is to learn the
kind of whisky the man likes-wheth-
er he wants a strong whisky or a mild
whisky. This is all the barkeeper needs
tC know. When he learns this it is
al easy matter for him to fool the man
who drinks at the bar, If he happens

deals indifferently with the brands of
whisky.
Yes, there are but very few good
judges of whisky. Nine out of ten Of
the drinking men boast of the fact that
they know good whisky, but they do
not The only thing they have learn
ed as a matter of fact, is the differ
ence between strong whisky and mild
whisky, and a mere novice in the drink
