From the New York Sun: :: :
y One Of the lecture. halls in the Amer,
lean Museum Of Natural History build
ing was crowded last evening even to
the limits of it's standing room with
men and women attracted for the most
part by the promise of an exhibition of
the wonders of radium.
It was, however, a regular meeting of
the New York Academy, of Sciences and
one of the papers announced for the ev-
ening was on radium, illustrated by
many experiments, by George F. Kunz,
mineralogist and diamond expert, who
some weeks ago when the specimen of
radium by the Natural History museum
was first brought to this country, made
some interesting public experiments il
Illustrating the effects of the substance
upon diamonds.
It was announced OH the card of invi-
tation to last evenings lecture that
there would be exhibitions of radium
Of 100000 and 100000 activity, but
Mr.. Kunz announced that although the
order for the 100000 activity radium
had been placed abroad many weeks
The experiments, therefore were con-
Quoted with the radium Of 100000 ac-
tivity. Mr.. Kunz, besides a number of
other geological specimens. brought
with him to the lecture hall a number
of diamonds of great beauty.
With the lights turned down, the
radium in a glass tube which in turn
was enclosed in India rubber, was held
on one side of board an inch thick
and the diamonds were on the other
side
Trough the glass, the India rub
Der and the inch of thick board the ra-
dunn caused the jewels to glow with
a soft and very beautiful phosphores-
cent light which was distinctly Wis
ible all over the darkened room
There was a buzz of admiration among
the spectators followed by an even
more eloquent silence, until a deep
voice way back in the crowd broke out
Please pass the diamonds to the
back part of the hall for Inspection
Mr.. Kunz ignored the request and
showed the radium glowing by itself
through the glass tube, the rubber
tube, piece Of lead pipe, piece of
| iron pipe, three copper cylinders and a
jar of water the wonderful substance
apparently shining as clearly through
all of these substances at once as it did
| through any one of them.
Mr.. Kunz then applied the ultra vio-
let light and the Roentgen rays to a
| variety of minerals, many of them
| showing beautiful fluorescence for
| several seconds after the light rays
were withdrawn.

THE DULL SOY Y

was better, patient and persevering,
and it was by that means and by his
carefully cultivated inventiveness that
he was enabled to perfect his steam en- :
gine. 81. r.:
What DR.. Arnold, Tie famous master
at Rugby, said Of boys is equally true
of men-that the4,difference between
one boy and another consists not so
much in talent as; in energy. Given
perseverance. and: energy soon becomes
habitual. Provided the Ounce has per-
sistency and application he will newt
ably head the cleverer fellow without
these qualities Slow but sure wins the
race. =: 49,.
/ 1t is perseverance that explains how
the position Of the. boys+at school is so
often reVersedi in real life; and it is cur
lous to note how some who were then so
clever have become SO commonplace,
whilst others, dull boys of whom MOTH
ing was expected, slow in their facul-
ties, but sure in their pace, have. as
sumed the positions of leaders of men:
The author of this book, when a boy,
stood in the same class with oneSof the
-
other had tried his skill upon him and
failed. Corporal punishment, the. FOOLS
cap, coaxing end earnest! entreaty
proved alike fruitless.. Some times the
experiment was tried of putting him at
the top of his class, and it was Curl
Gus to note the rapidity with which he
graviated to the inevitable bottom, like
a lump Of lead passing through quick
silver.
The youth was given up by many
! teachers as an incorrigible Ounce, one
of them pronounced him to be "a stu
pendous BOBBY" Yet, slow that he was,
this Ounce had a sort of dull energy of
purpose in him which grew with his
muscles and his manhood, and strange
to say, when he at length came to take
part in the practical business of life, he
was found heading most of his school
companions . and eventually left the
greater number of them far behind
The last time the author heard of him
he was chief ma gistrate of his native
city. The tortoise in the right road will
beat the racer in the wrong.
It matters not, though youth be
slow. if he be but diligent. Quickness OF
parts may even prove a defect. mas
much as the boy who learns readily will
often forgot quite as readily, and also
because he finds no need of cultivating
that quality Of application and perser-
verance which the slower youth is CON-
PEELED to exercise, and which proves SO
| valuable an element in the formation
of every character.
Davy said what I am I have made
! myself and the same holds true uni
, versally. The highest culture is not OBJ
tanned from teachers when at school or
college, so much as by our own .diligent
self education when we have become
men. Hence parents need not be in too
great haste to see. their children:s tai
ents forced into blooms. 49,.

his antagonist as a scholar, which he
did rising to the top of his class.
Dean Swift one of the greatest writ

his recommendation to Oxford ''by

The brilliant Sheridan showed so lit

the complimentary accompaniment that
he was an incorrigible Ounce. Walter

AT: PARTING,
From CasselPs London Journal:

From CasselPs London Journal:
1t is generally believed that bribery
and corruption are rampant in the
municipal elections of a Midland pro-
Vincial town. The agent Of a recent
candidate. for civic honors tells a story
illustrative of this. He was engaged
in a" canvass of the constituency, and
he was charged to secure votes at any
cost. Accordingly he manifested a keen
interest in the domestic affairs of all
the people. upon whom he called, and
by timely gifts, etc., he hoped to Sc
cure his end,
One old lady whom he visited was
very affable to him. In the course of
conversation, he referred to a pretty
little black kitten sitting on her lap,
manifested desire to have it, and
eventually offered the old lady half
a. sovereign for. it. In the end a bargain
was struck. and the agent departed
with the kitten and the belief that the
good mans vote. was sure.
AS he was leaving the old won1a n
gave her departing kitten a kindly pat,
and said :"
We'll, sir, as 1 told We before, poor
jamie is a man that has a mind O. his
own, and just votes as he thinks fit,
but at ony rate you've gotten a very
good bargain O. that kitten, for the

DEER. IN THE WOODS.

T. S Van Dyke, in Outing: - :
Next to the difficulty of compre-
hending the wonderful senses of
the. deer is that. of understanding
how one looks in the woods: Your
ideas are necessarily taken from pic
lures or from stuffed deer or tame
ones IN park. You are almost
certain to be looking for a. deer, where
as you might better be looking for
anything else. In the woods you sell
dom see half of a deer and generally
much less, often only a. part of the
shoulder or only an ear over a log or a
leg under it, bit of ralmp projecting
from bush or a head and a:-bit of the
neck reaching up for leaves. The arcade
OF maple lit up by the scarlet Of the
ginsing and bush cranberry, the little
arbor where the wild hop is following
over the thorn apples on which half a
dozen ruffed grouse are taking their
breakfast, the edge of the pool where
the trout flashes throug h the water over
which the chelone is still nodding, or
the darksome glade where the golden
petals Of the witch hazel are closing the
floral march Of the year would all make
lovely frames for the Charming artists
deer with individual hairs all glistening,
the dirk dew claws shining, and even.
the split in the, hoot flashing artistic
light from its edges But the glittering
tints, the proud neck Of the sculptured
war horse, the shaggy chest and bulg-
ing rump with tail full of shining hairs
are not those except at long intervals
when you may rout an old fool out Of
bed and get him twisted as to: the
points of the compass.
