Having been duly merry and having
duly gone through the annua! perform
ance of swapping presents. let Us turn
again to more or less honest toll with the
firm determination to meet the January
bills like men. They will be along i'll
about week and they will add much
joy to the Happy New Year So much
that it will be best to pay them
promptly in order that a long con-
tinuance of the joy they bring may not
enervate US. We shall need ali our
strength to keep the good resolutions
we are going to form during the COM
ing week. Therefore let US not weaken
ourselves by long contemplation of the
Happy New Year bills.

An eager and ingenious woman has
applied to the Divorce court at Sydney.
New South Wales, asking that her d.
vorce suit be heard at the judges "ear-
lest convenience" as she has received
fresh offer of marriage. and would
like to accept it.
Why not? What's the use of any
concealment or false modesty in such a
case? Here is a woman who knows
that she wants divorce, knows that
she ought to have one, and knows that
the judge. being just, will give her one.
She is not tired of marriage. She is
only tired of being married to the one
from whom she seeks a divorce. She
has another all ready to marry her,
and she is all ready to marry him.
Why, then, should poky old judge be
slow about giving her freedom from
slavery? Why should he be slow about
allowing her to take advantage of her
chance to make a new investment in
matrimony when she feels Certain that
the new one will yield her better Aivi-
dends than the old one did? Let him
hurry so that she can hurry to be on
with the new love. His earliest con-
venience,' can't be too early for her.

scarcely Fave succeeded, Let Il then
be a hail in memory Of the glory Of our
German fatheFIand- This memorial
hall should remind US that as cur peo-
pie gaze upon the 2aladins and heroes
Of the great age. it becomes clear TO
them that our unity has been rendered
possible only by mighty labor of mind
and body. the mighty labor Of the
Empire William the Great, who toiled
for it though the strife Of years. the
mighty mental travail of The German
people, whose every class strove to find
unity once more, and the mighty labor
Of its sons in arms upon the battlefield.
But I cannot help thinking that the
present generation does not fully re-
spOnd to the duty of carrying on the
work which has been becueathed to us
by our fathers. Our people, in it's
different grades and classes, has be-
come less willing to take up this task.
The great questions which affect it since
the restoration of a united German
fatherland and a united German people
are not understood. I hope. however,
that every citizen who goes in and out
of this building will by the sight of it be
prompted to reflection. and that among
the inhabitants of the Lausltz and also
among the strongeTS who, it is to be
hoped. will visit it in great numbers.
the sense of a categorical imperative OF
duty will again be aroused. 1t is fine, it
is magnificent that people should give
expression to its love for its fathers, for
the crown and for its wearers-but the
matter does not end there. The wear
er of the crown and his organs cannot
in the long run advance 4 country I'M
less all classes therein give their help.
We stand on the threshold of the de-
Velopment of new forces; our age de-
mands a race which understands it.
The new century is dominated by sci
ence-which includes technical skill
and not. like the last century, by phi
losophy. We must be men of the age.
Great is the German in scientific inves-
tigation, great is his capacity for or
SANITATION and discipline. The freedom
of the individual, the strong tendency
towards development of individuality
which is inherent in our race, is condi-
toned by subordination to the whole
for the good Of the whole. May the flu
ture, therefore. see the growth of
generation which in the full recognition
of these facts develops in the course of
joyous labor individuals who subordi-
nate themselves to the good Of the
whole, to the good of the people, and of
the fatherland. Then, and not till then,
will the ideal be realized upon which

THE GERMAN EMPEROR's IDEAL

The text of the speech made by the
German Emperor at Gorlitz on Friday

One of the most important duties of
the naturalists on the Huxley, vessel
which is pursuing Investigations in the
North sea, will be to liberate fishes
bearing numbered labels in different
parts of the English area of the fish
ing grounds. This part of the work is
to be carried out on a large scale by
all the participating countries in the
hope of throwing a clearer light upon
the migration and growth of food fishes
In the North sea. By this method the
biologists hope to contribute definite
results of value on the immature fish
question, since they expect to show the
extent to which the shallow banks
where small fiat fish abound serve as a
source of supply or nursery for the gen.
eral area of the North sea fishing
grounds. Science has found a way of
attaching labels to fish without fncom-
moding them and it is asserted that not
the least cruelty is involved in the ex-
pertinent.

Over six thousand miles of new rail-
road have been built in this country
during the present year. These figures
do not include second track, sidings or
electric lines. The total is larger than
for any year during the past decade,
and compares with 5,36S miles in 1901
Approximately 164,547 cars have been
built, including cars for use on elevated
railroads, but exclusive of street and
other electric cars and cars built by
railroads at their own shops. During
the year 4,07O locomotives were built as
against 1884 last year.

A HUMANE HORSESHOE.

Made of Rubber and Prevents Equine
Ailments.
Considerable attention has been at.
tracted to the new humane rubber
horseshoe which recently appeared on
the market The primary object of
shoeing to-day is, or at least ought TO
be, for the purpose of controlling and
directing the growth Of the feet so
they can act as base to support the
limb properly. Lameness in horses
while unshOd is often very dissimilar
to the same ailment while in a shod
condition While unshod the sole of
the foot is most likely to suffer, but
when poorly shod the portion above
the sole becomes the centre of pain,
which causes general disturbance.
A horse often becomes lame because of
insufficient quantity in the matter of
hoof, while an over quantity may be
the cause of lameness common to the
horse.
The humane rubber horseshoe re.
lieves the jar and prevents contraction,
which is the chief cause of producing
bruises commonly called corns) which
are situated between the bar and wall

of the foot. This trouble usually rem
ders the horse unfit for service. By
using the humane rubber shoe the life
of the horse is prolonged, and many
bad habits that the animal is subject
to are avoided, such as ankle cutting,
tendon and knee bruising, and forging
is also prevented. The animal cannot
injure himself on the street or in the
stall with this shoe, and the wear is
equal to any metallic shoe. IL pre-.
vents the horse from slipping and gives
to the foot frog pressure and full rub.
Der bearing on the whole margin OF the
foot, there being thin covering of
sole leather on the upper side of the
shoe which prevents the hoof from
coming in contact with the rubber.
There is no hot fitting with this shoe,
thereby avoiding the absorption of the
natural oil Of the hoof, and the owners
of horses should realize that the
horses foot must be protected while in
use on hard pavements and where 1t Is
deprived of natural protection which
the soil affords and where the foot will
in a great measure take care of itself.

might be considered simple accidents,
and upheavals of the crust not oc-
Cured the globe would have been
vast sea. Happily for the human race
the reverse held. and man has made
his home upon what are virtually the
tops of mountains or long elevated
mountain ranges ten miles in height,
measuring from the top of the highest
mountain to the deepest abyss of the
ocean. Many changes have occurred
in the past millions Of years since the
dry land appeared, and doubtless many
Of the mountains were much higher,
but nature is ever carrying on a fierce
warfare, and slowly and imperceptibly
the heights are leveled, the mountain
peaks denuded and the dry land
washed down the great river courses
into the sea; and theoretically, given
sufficient time, assuming that no ele.
vatiOn occurs, the entire earth may dis.
appear.
This wear and tear of nature is ac.
compllshed In many ways, and is pro-
ductive of Interesting results. Frost,
snow, wind and rain are the principal
erOsive agents which are chiseling,
cutting grinding and wearing away
the surface of the earth. The elements
are all Jewelers., and the tendency is to
reduce the mighty monuments OF ma
ture and level them in the dust In the
81 hta1nnt Of fhf- ,,s1-
able natural monuments are made,
splendid in their dignity and grandeur.
Instances are found in the Garden of
the Gods. in Colorado, where pillars,
towers, mOnoliths, arches, gateways,
titanic newell posts and forms and
shapes Of every possible kind and de-
sign are seen-the work Of frost and
rain.
But it Is further west that the most
striking effects of erosion are found.
In the region to the west of Salt Lake.
and from there on, in what was for
merly known as the Great American
Desert, every overland passenger has
been entertained by the weird and pic
turesque works of nature.
One Of the most interesting of the
largest buttes is the famous Enchant-
ed Mesa which has been written up as
novelty by many modern writers and
over which much discussion has Oc.
cured. This mesa is a type of ex.
treme isolation and abruptness, the
talus being so steep that ascent is ex-
tremely difficult to the average climber.
A typical butte is well shown in the
accompany lllustratiOn-d rock pillar
at Acoma, New Mexico, photographed
by G. Wharton James. Harder than
the rest of its surroundings, it has re-
sisted the foods and rains of cen
turies and stands, a gigantic monu-
ment to the resisting quality of certain
portions of the surface. This pillar Is
merely a dlminutive Enchanted Mesa.
1t may have been acres in extent at
some early age, dwindling away with
each successive year, the pillar being
the heart or core of n sometime lofty
and isolated mesa.
In the famous fossil forests Of the

the forest makes it exceedingly pictur-
esque, but since 1853, when it was first
discovered, but comparatively few
tourists have explored it, owing to the
difficulty in crossing the gorges and in
climbing the mesas and other forms
Some Of the trees have been found pro-
iecting from deposits Of what We're
evidently at one time volcanic lava
and ashes as high as twenty-five feet
above the volcanic foundation. Others
are on the edges Of the gulleys lying
like gigantic cannon, as If protecting
the locality from the intruder. In some
portions Of the forest trunks are piled
as neatly as If they had been arranged
for the sawmill, ten to fifteen being
counted in one lot As will be noted by
the accompany Illustrations a large
number of them are in lengths Of but
a few feet and at distance looked
like great cart wheels. AS their CEN
