Guided by Himself.

The father Of Thomas Jefferson died
in 1857, and the sons situation was
touchingly described by him years af-
terward in letter written to his eldest
grandson when he was sent from home
to school for the first time. 1t is given
In THE True Thomas Jefferson" by
William E. Curtis. The letter was as
follows:
when 1 recollect that at fourteen
years of age the whole care and d!rec-
ton Of myself was thrown on myself
entirely, without relative or friend
qualified to advise or guide me, and
recollcct the various sorts Of bad com.
pany with which 1 associated from
time to time, am astoniShed that l
did not turn off with some Of them,
and become as worthless to society as
they were.
II had the good fortune to become
acquainted very early in life with some
characters Of very high standing, and
to feel the incessant wish that could
become as they were"
His father left instructions for his
education. and especially enjcined up
on the widow not to permit him TO
neglect "the exercise requisite for his
bodye's development" This strong
man knew the value Of strength, and
used to say that a person Of weak
body could not have an independent
mind.

Lunacy in London.

That lunacy is on the increase in Lon
don is unhappily only too true, says
the Lady's Pictorial. This is discon-
certing in itself, but the causes that
contribute thereto are even more so,
seeing that they are set down as being
largely due to overcrowding. poverty,
intemperance, and those things which
do not make for q quiet life. Now,
as overcrowding Is an ever increasing
evil Of this ever growing, ever popu-
lated city, and as year by year life
becomes more Of a scramble and a
struggle, the prospect is certainly not
a very cheering one. Nor is it very
comfortable to learn that thirty-six
per cent. of the lunatics in the L. c..
c. asylums are turned out "cured."
There are far too many cures" at
large, and the results are tragically
evidenced every day.

WHAT WIRELESS TELEcRAPAY IS
Modern Physicist's Views Regarding Elee-
trical Phenonena.

In order to follow intelligently the
advance Of wireless telegraphy from
the beginning, some rough idea must
be had Of the modern physicists views
regarding the nature Of electrical phe-
nomena. To this end all space must
be regarded as permeated by a some
thing termed the luminiferous ether.
Not only does this ether permeate the
spaces between the heavenly bodies
and our atmosphere (Which concep-
ton offers little difficulty to the lay
mind, but it also permeates all solids.
Further, its nature Is such that the
movement even Of solids is not In the
least restrained by such permeation,
the closest analogy being that Of a
sieve, representing the solid, being
mofed about In water representing the
ether.
The ether is the seat not only Of all
electrical phenomena, but also of all
the phenomena of light and heat. All
of these, apparently so distinct, are
but the result of vibrations or waves
on the ether, the apparent differences
being due only to differences Ill the
length of the waves and the rapidity
with which they occur. just as one mu-
sical note differs from another II the
same particulars. only that the sound
waves arc air waves and not ether
waves.
Now with the usual teleSraphic
methods the current. as it is termed,
is sent or directed through space by
means of metallic conductor. Actu.
ally nothing passes through the wire,
as is implied by the use OF the word
current" What actually takes place
is the transmission OF energy along the
path of the wire by means Of vibra-
tions in the neighboring ether That
is, the metal OF the wire acts merely
as 4 guide for the ether waves to the
destination desired.
In wireless telegraphy, ether vibra.
tions are also set up at the transmit.
ting station. but these, having no con-
ducting guide, radiate in all directions
through space, and a small percentage
of them arrives at the. receiving sta.
tior, and by means of suitable appara-
tus are made appreciable by the senses
or recorded.-The Great Round World.

A FORGOTTEN Monument.


One of the charms of life in the
country is it's moderation and free
dom from hurry and excitement. 1t is
possible, however, to have too much
of a good thing, as an incident which
happened recently in a New England
farming district indicates.
Farmer Allen had gone up into his
attic to get spinning wheel for the
tableaux which the summer boardcr5
were to produce in the town hall.
Like most country attics, it was
packed with the relics of several gen
erations, but the thing which at once
attracted the attention of the city
girl who accompanied the farmer was
a gravestone, tucked away under the
caves.
Why, there's a gravestone," she
said.
"Yes." The farmer dragged it out
and turned it's face to the light. The
inscription on it read:
Sacred to the memory Of
Henry F. Allen
Born
Died
1856
Eyes; that's Henrys stone-he was
my youngest boy"
But why" began the young wonl-
an.
"Why amt ever set it up?" There
was a slight pause. Farmer Allen was
returning the stone to its place under
the caves. well, I've always meant
to- he continued, mildly, but l amt
never got round to it."
