First Aid in Accidents" is a handy little
book of information as to what to DO and
what ought not to be done in case OF acct
dents when instant action is necessary and
bewildernent and indecision are criminal. The

R. Dickson, M. D., secretary st. John Ambu

merous and helpful The book can be carried
in the breast pocket by tourists, prospectors,

West Thirty -second street, New York, has
published a translation of Pierre Foucin s
France edited and translated by H. H.
Kane A. NJ This book was written for for
eigners who wish to learn important facts
about France and the French people The
author avoids the whirlpool OF politics. He
gives geographical and typographical informa-
ton in a pleasing way; tells US of France
in history, in modern times and Of contem-
porary France; her institutions, Industries,
colonies, progress in science, literature and
art and the temperament and character of the
people. The author worships France and
points with pride to her achievements. The
chapter on the temperament and character OF
the French is admirable. The diagnosis is
faithful. Here is one of his characterize
TONS. ITO speak truly the French demand
wit at all times and in all places; it is the
indispensable salt for their intellectual feaets
A bon-lnot disarms their anger. To-day
when the people are supreme, a witticism
may overthrow a ministry or put an end To
/ a political regime" = The French are
better than they seem, and particularly are
they better than they describe themselves.

Henderson says: 1T is not foolish thing

them. Social salvation must come about by
changing mems ideas and bodies and homes,
not separately but contemporaneously, for
human health Is a matter Of the whole organ
ism, and knowledge, the objective side of
virtue, is the result of this larger and more
complete outlook Professor Gunton, dis
cussing Foreign Trade Delusions," argues
that increased foreign trade is not an infalli-
BILE evidence of national prosperity. He says:
"A country's prosperity is not measured nor
correctly indicated by It's foreign trade, what
ever the nature of it's balances, but by its
whole trade, domestic and foreign, the domes-
tic being always OF greater Importance than

Jefferson planned first to send an envoy to
France to buy outright New Orleans and
Florida. Napoleon's great plans for an inlpos-
ing colonial empire were going to pieces; his
operations in the orient were ill-starred; his
army in San Domingo was annihilated by the
negroes and pestilence, and the prospect OF a
struggle with all Europe led him to unload
Louisiana il spite of protests against, the
policy at home.
The author includes fine account of Ma
poleon's quarrel with Joseph and Lucien over
the SALE There was bitter wrangle over
the purchase in this country, as to the con-
stitutonality of the business, but it was sus-
tanned, although Jefferson admitted that he
could not find direct justification for it in the
letter Of the constitution. Jefferson was
called a Spanish despot and "a usurper OF
power But the United States hoisted the
flag and the flag has remained over the
whole broad territory it waved over in 1903.

half of the Mississippi valley was transferred
by France to the United States and which is

There is very interesting and amusing
study In children's vocabularies in the Popu-
lar Science Monthly ty NJ. c. and H. Gale OF
the University of Minnesota, who have made
very careful observations and discovered
among other things that a child of 275 years
uses 600 to. 800 different words in day. The
record shows that the boy used 751 words
and the girl 629 in a given case in one day,
the boy using 1863 nouns and the girl 307, both
using the same number of interjections. and
aggregating+ in all words used, $3.50 for the
boy and 1892 for the girl, who did not keep
UP the reputation of her sex for talking abil-
ity. The boy used his own name, Sammy
1857 times on one day. The record of what
the children said, taken down by the parents,
is decidedly interesting, when the little
girl was talking to her doll. The philosophy
of child-talk is suggestively treated.
