GAINS OF RELIGION.

On the part of a few Of our evangelists a pro-
pensity for plying the lash proneness to denuncia-
ton, makes for pessimsm that is unwholesome
and unsound. While 1t is true that mankind re-
quires excoriation by way of, exhortation and
stimulus it is also true that mankind demands some
encouragement II the entire scheme Of things were
rotten as it is habitually painted by certain
class Of reformers there would be no room for hope
Civilization might just as well give up.
The worst argument that can be offered In sup
port Of the Christian religion is to maintain that
world has steadily gone from bad to worse, not
withstanding the presence and operation Of the pr
cipe of Christianity in the world for almost twenty
centuries. To maintain that the trend Of things is
and has always been the wrong way and that all
human activities are perverted Is to deny the force
of good. The extreme views promulgated by certain
people who have taken up the business of evangeiz-
ing the world constitute an argument for futility
and naturally give rise to the inquiry, What's the
use Of anythinga Such views amount to an adms-
sion that evil is unconquerable
Civilization and Christianity demand an acknowl-

B1TsINEss AFTER PLEAsURE.

The Municipal Assembly will have important work
to do promptly after the first of the year. The re-
cess, which will terminate January g. will perhaps
have had conciliating effect the few legislators
who have been disposed to be obstinate and desired
legislation may be realized rapidly-legislatfon
which is Of the greatest possible Importance to ST.
Louis on the eve of its great International Expo
sition.
The most important subject which will engage
the Municipal Assembly will be that concerning gar
bage disposal The Municipal Assembly should be
impressed with realization that the people expect
immediate action in this matter, in accordance with
the plans proposed by the Special Investigating
Committee. Early next year, next month, the
report Of the commission of architects necessary
improvements to public buildings will come up for
consideration. This is an especially important mat
ter.
But there are three bills pending which require
immediate attention, and these the Assembly should
pass. There is in the House which prohibits the
This bill is Of the greatest possible importance to ST.
Louis at this time for the subject which it embraces
may materially affect the attendance at the Worlds
Fair, for the reason that unless some such measure
becomes law, the railroads will not be able to
safeguard their interests with the same liberality
in their treatment of the public in the matter
of rates as If there is a protecting law. There
is another in the House which provides for
the reconstruction Of Linden boulevard west of
Grand avenue. There is one in the Council which
provides for the protection of street pavements.
These three bills ought be passed once and the
Municipal Assembly ought to transmit them to the
Mayor as soon after January as possible.

How Radium work.


Professor Rutherford in Harpers
The most interesting and also best known OF these
radioactive products the emanations' of horium
and radium. These emanaons which are produced only
by thorium and radum but by uranium consist OF
minute particles Of matter possessing the property Of
radiatng for some time. They continuously duse from
the mass Of the active substance the surrounding
air. By passing current of air over the active body
the emanadon is carried away like ordinary sas and
continues to radate long after Its Their radat-
ing power Is not persistent, but decays geometrical
progression with the time The eanations are dis
tngushed by the difference in their rates OF loss
of activity The raum eanation half its actyi-
y in about four days. that from hortu in about one
minute. The radun emanation can be stored like a
gas In an ordinary holder and still retains some
activity after standing for a month.
The emanations have been shown to possess all the
properties of gases They dffuse rapidly through air
and through substances like paper but like or
binary unable to through thin sheet Of
mica From the rate of diffusion has been shown that
they behave like heavy gases molecular weight over
100 times that of hydrogen. In addition they can he
condensed from the with which they are mixed
by the action Of extreme cold The thoriun emanation
begins to condense at I'D degrees c. the radium at o
degrees c.
There be little doubt that these emanations are
in reality possessing the radiatng property
They unaffected by chemical reagents and in this
resemble the recently discovered gases in the
atmosphere-argon, xenon. and krypton.
