Another voice in the Heavenly song
A voice that death can never still,
For her life was as free from every wront
AS the flowers that bloom on yonder hill
Tho we know the worth of her mother
love, g,
And feel the weight of her grinding
grief,
The daughter in her home above
Has found at last glad relief.
The waiting loved one will rejoice
When done with sorrow and all pain,
The loving mothers glorious voice
Joins the Daughters sweet refrain.

Horror Of being buried alive Is com

making such terrible fate Impossible
some physicians maintain that satls-
factory tests can also be made by the
lse Of Roentgen rays, but II Is not
everyone who has the facilities LOT
making such tests, whereas any
one can make a test on the plan de-
vised by DR.. lcard, physician Of Mar
settles. France. The doctor uses huo-
rescin. the ell-known coloring materl-
al. and his experiments have proven
so successful that they have won Tor
him the approval of the French Aeao-
emv of Sciences. Fluorescin injected
into the human body produces abso-
lutelv no effect If the body is dead
whereas ii produces a most surprising
effectif the body is alive. DR.. lcard
uses a solution Of ii which is so strong
that a single gramme is able to color
10000 quarts of water.
If a little Of this solution IS injected
under the skin Of living person in two
minutes the skin, and especially the
mucous membranes. will become much
discolored, and the person will present
the appearance Of one suffering from
an acute attack Of iaundice. More

come invisible. These symptoms VIII
remain for one or possibly two hours
and then viii gradually disappear.
Since fuorescin produces this effect on

cording TO DR.. Icard, that any body on

dead.

Taft as a witness to show that many for
mer insurgent leaders who were guilty of
various offenses not recognized by the laws
of war have been appointed to civil posi-
tiors.
Governor Taft gave testimony to the
fact that many such former insurgents had
been appointed, but that they had proved
honest, straightforward and earnest He
said that some of them had been guilty
of murder from American standards, but
that from their own standpoint they I'M
doubtedly believed their conduct of the
war TO have been legitimate. Governor
Taft said that he had found these ap-
pointees to be loyal and that they were
not chosen because they happened to be
insurgent generals, but because they were
men of influence among their own people
He said the experience of the civil author
