The germ which causes tonsilitis is
The staphylococcus.
DIR. Haecher (Munchener Med.
Woch.) says that the method of hard
ening children by means of cold baths
is not only unnecessary, but it is oft
entimes injurious. 1t increases rather
than diminishes their susceptibility to
''coIds," thus inducing coryza, throat
affections, bronchitis and pneumonia.
The new microscope invented by
Signor Pinos, an Italian, it is said, en-
ables human eyesight to penetrate the
sea to an incredible depth and for an
enormous radius. A naval official who
witnessed an experiment with this
microscope in the Mediterranean says
that the instrument can be operated
from the deck of a ship, making visible
cables and torpedoes, and ought to null
lify the dangerous character of subma-
rine boats.
Doctors have invented new form of
bubble. Neuralgia, sciatica and lum-
bago are known to be affections of the
ends of the nerves which lie just under
the skin of the painful region. II has
been discovered that by injecting air
under the skin the ends of the nerves
are heightened and the pain relieved
The bubble of air is pressed by the
fingers and caused to move about until
all parts are relieved. In dislocations.
fractures and bruises the same treat
ment has given relief
The chief defect of the box kite, of
which DIR. Langley's aerodrome is an
elaboration, is that the weight in
creases with the cube as rapidly as the
lifting power does with the square, so
that the larger the kite the less it will
lift in proportion. Prof. Graham Bells
kites are equal-sided triangles, so that
they need no bracing, and it is found
that the lifting power increased at a
greater rate than the increase in
weight. A flock of these kites recently
lifted 200-pound weight.
An explanation of the remarkable in
fuence of electricity upon plant
growth is found by Hugo Helberger,
of Munich, in the destruction of the in
furious insects of the soil. Noticing
some worms striving TO get away from
an ingot mould that was being dried
on the ground by electricity, he placed
in the earth metal wire connected
with current of 1l0 volts, and soon
had, the pleasure of seeing all small in
sects within radius CT two yards
come to the surface and struggle TO
escape from the electrified circle. In
later experiments, using many wires
with a very small current of high in
tensity, the ground was completely
freed from insect life over a consider
able area.

Flowers For the Liyind.

The opening day of Congress is a
floral display always, for it is quite
the fashion to send flowers to Sena-
tors and Representatives. In men
tion of this custom Washington re-
porters make special mention of
some of the most imposing offerings:
Senator Hanna's pronounced vic
tory in the Ohio election won for him
what was one of the most pretentious
designs ever seen in the senate, a
shield three and a half by four and
a half feet, of blue immortelles, in
which was wrought out of California
grasses, ribbons and red, white and
blue immortelles the design of the
American eagle, identical with that
on a silver quarter of a dollar. The
Shield was surmounted with a gor.
geous cluster of American Beauty
roses. The offering bore the inscrip.
tion: Senator Mark Hanna, from
his friends, the Irish Democracy OF
Cleveland"
uiiy sCoIc VI sudllcI trluutcs

Senator Gorman's triumph in the
Maryland election was recognized by
the largest floral piece, handsome
wreath more than two feet in diane
ter with crossed cluster of roses
carnations and chrysanthemums, a

The Senator a Power
AmOnQ the People.

Undoubtedly Mr.. Hanna is power
among the people. He may be as
strong in public opinion and esteem
as the President. Who can say that
he is lees popular as a popular leader
than was Mckinley himself? How Is
anyone to know? Surely it Is that he
is very near to the hearts of all Re-
publicans. Some, many thousands,
no doubt, would take him by natural
and hearty selection. Others, mul.
titude, are undecided as between
two cherished and much loved names
Shall 1t be Roosevelt? Shall IL be
Hanna? They don't know. willing
ly they would take both we're it not
for the law. Again, every enemy Of
the President is Justify calling fol
Hanna. They are the men who didn'i
get Offices. They are the men, who
throwing a lot of industries or rail
roads together, have capitali3et
their act as well as their prosperity
All are for Hanna-not because he Il
Hanna, but for the reason that hs
isn't Roosevelt. Still further along
Is organiz- d labor. It's for Hanna
too. And here is a paradox, to bt
sure. Original capital and organized
labor hand in hand, stepping blithe
ly along to the same object of a com
mon desire.
Mr.. Hanna can be pleased but hs
cannot be led away by sincerity
Those who are honest do not offend
him when they praise and when they
plead. Their testimony and theii
eagerness would crafty any one
However, Mr.. Hanna knows the pur
poses and he understands the anger
of Wall street. There is only selfish
ness in that short, narrow and
crooked thoroughfare; very often
there is rascality, defiant and lawless;
rascality dressed up in high hats and
long coats. Mr.. Hanna cannot be
lured away by Wall street. AS for
Roosevelt, you may be sure he de-
spises 1t. The cheaters of widows
and school teachers, the woolves who
stop to devour each other may call
the President a crazy man and they
may pour out their money got by
robbery to beat him. but he will be
nominated and elected. There seems
to be no hazard to his success before
the American people and at the polls.

The profit OF a gold mine depends, not on
the amount OF rock crushed under the stumps
but upon the amount OF gold of which can be
extracted from the rock. In a similar way
the value OF the food which Is eaten does not
depend on the quantity which is taken into
the stomach but upon the amount OF nourish-
ment extracted from IL by the organs OF nutri-
tion and digestion. When these organs are
diseased they fail TO extract the nourishment

Theodore Roosevelt has proved
himself so good public official that
il cannot be said he has mistaken
his calling. But he would have
made very good newspaper man.
His message to congress is model
of terseness, brevity and clearness.
He says in plain English, not ornate,
exactly what he wishes to say and
stops. The style of the document
would do credit to the most talented
newspaper correspondent in Wash
ington. Read this brief extract:
Cuba has made great progress
since her independence was estab-
lished. She has advanced steadily
in every way. She already stands
high among her sister republics of
the new world. She Is Loyalty OBJ
serving her obligations to us; and
she is entitled to like treatment by
US.
The sentences are short. Every
day words are used and not one word
too many. The arrangement is log
ical and forceful. That's good news
