Stupidity Of Men,

A group of women were talking
about the stupidity OF men at all
times and their enormous denseness
when their wives were trying to give
them a hint.

bad enough to 60 around" said one
woman. 81 tried to catch my hus-
bands eye to convey to him that he
was serving the meat too generously.
But he would not take the hint.
When he lad given out the last bit,
there were two plates still unified.
What do you suppose that shameless
man did? He simply called all the
plates back again and scooped enough
of each one to fill the remaining two. -

band aside beforehand and tell him q

The National Guard.

At the recent meeting OF the Inter
State National Guard association OF
the United States at Columbus. O.,
Secretary Root said:
sThcre are only two ways of rails
ing an army-by CONSUMPTION or by
voluntary service. The national
guard is the great school Of the vol
unteers. 1t is not intended that the
national government shall pay the
expense Of maintaining the guard. but
1t is intended that it shall add to the
efficiency, the strength and and the
dignity Of the guard.
''There will never be any trouble in
raising soldiers. The trouble viii be
in the limit Of supply and transporta-
tion and equipment. ALI need ar
rangement and organization. With
the national government performing
the quartermaster's and the financial
part Of the work and the national
guard looking after the spirit we can
have an army that the whole round
world cannot contend with.

Scientific Wines.

Electrical journals state that elec-
tricity is being successfully tried in
Italy for the "ageing" of wines. The
process is said to render possible ex-
traordinary notifications in the DO
quet and body Of the vintage, and the
suggestion has been made that ii
might be employed with advantage
in the correction OF faults frequently
apparent in California wines arising
from the richness of the soil on which
the grapes have grown. There is nc
telling what results may be obtained
in these days Of scientific progress,
and there is growing belief that
there are many wines on the market
that are made without any grapes at

couraging or discouraging. Promoter

Prof. Newcomb, of John Hopkins
University has an article in Mcclure S
Magazine, in which he pictures the
earth many centuries in the future
falling rapidly through the heavens
into the sun.
A fatal collision takes place, the sun
bursts forth in an appalling burst of
flaming heat, and in the ensuing days
every vestige of life and civilization
on earth has been destroyed.
1t is interesting to note that Prof.
Newcombs' story, fantastic as it seems
is substantially in accord with views
of other advanced astronomers as to
what might be the ultimate fate of
the earth. Sir Robert Ball estimates
that within view of our telescopes we
have probably 100, 900, 900 stars and
that this number must be multiplied
by millions if we are to form an even
tolerably accurate estimate of the
number of dark and invisible bodies
which are passing through space in
all directions. That a collision be-
tween two of these bodies occasionally
take place is practically conceded, the
sudden appearance of "new stars"
being accounted for as result of the
tremendous impact of colliding bodies,
and the conversion or energy into
light and heat. What the result of
such acrash of heavenly bodies must
be is shown by Sir Robert Balls esti-
mate that were the earth to encounter
an obstacle sufficiently large to stop
it in its motion around the sun-not
counting its forward motion in con-
currence with the rest of the solar SyS-
tem-the collision "would generate as
much heat as could be produced by
the combustion of twelve globes of
solid cal each as heavy as the earth. I"
If this theory is correct and bodies
as large as our earth and sometimes
very much larger are falling into the
sun every few days it can easily be
kept hot.

The Indianapolis News says editor
ally: I'VE suggest to our friends
among the workingmen that thev are
in great danger of overriding the strike
business. Under a competitive sys-
tenn they are not to be blamed for
seeking to get the highest wages and
the best conditions Of employment
possible. But there is 40 doubt that
the strikes that have been begun or
threatened have seriously curtailed
the market for labor"
