'.The Hour Hand of Eternity"

In a recent lecture at Berlin on the
new views of the constitution of mat
ter based on the phenomena of radium
and other substances whose atoms ap-
pear to be flying to pieces Sir William
Crookes said: This fatal quality of
atomic dissertation appears to be uni
versal and operates whenever We
brush a piece of glass with silk. 1t
works in the sunshine and raindrops
and in the l~ightnings and flame. 1t
prevails in the waterfall and the
stormy sea, and, although the whole
range of human experience is all too
short to afford a parallaX whereby the
date of the extinction of matter can be
calculated, protyle, the 'formless mist
once again may reign supreme. and the
hour hand of eternity will have COM
pleted one revolution"

REDEEMING CERTIFICATES.

During the past week Wildwood
borough officials have redeemed So
l67.43 of the bonded Indebtedness of
the borough. This money was received
from the grading and graveling and
cement walk assessments. OF this
amount, 81, 000 was received from the
grading and graveling assessments and
the balance was received on account of
the cement walks and curbing. The
paper called in and paid off was as
follows:-Certificate No. I, dated May
%, 1899, held by the Marine National
Bank Of Wildwood, for 500; Certifi-
cate No. A, dated May Is, 1908, held
by the Marine National Bank, for ST.
800; Certificate No. 48, dated June %,
1903, held by b. f. Sweeten IL Son, for
81, l67.43. All three of these certificates
bore interest at . per cent. per annum,
and their redemption means a saving
OF Sl5o a year in interest to the bor-
ou9h. As fast as these assessments are
paid to Collector NanHorn, the money
Is used in paying off the borough's in
debtedness. 1t is to the interest of
every property owner to pay these as
sessments promptly and in full, as it
enables the borough to reduce its bond
ed Indebtedness and to lessen the
amount paid each year in interest.

A NOVEL BOAT.
II Is Driven by Her m Which
Force Jets Into Water.

1t Is Driven by Her Pumps, Which
Force Jets Into Water.
a novelty in the construction of ma
rine craft is shown in a recent patent
grant covering the design of a boat
propelled and steered by jets of water.
Instead of engines to drive screws and
propellers pumps are employed and
the boat driven by the action of jets Of
water taken in at the bow and elected
ut the stern.
These pumps are suitably located
within the hold of the vessel, and each
is provided with an intake tube, which
runs forwardly TO a point near the bow
OF the vessel. where there are suitable
openings through which the pipes may
receive the water, the said openings of
purse being arranged below the water
line. Thu inlet ports at the ends of
these pipes are controlled by valves
operated from some convenient point.
Extending from each of the pumps is
a tube which is curved so as to find an
opening at the side of the vessel near
the forward part thereof, the outlet
portion of the tube being directed for
wardly. Thus water which is forced
through the tube will be so directed as
to propel the boat rearwardly. as in
backing. Another pipe also extends
rearwardly from each pump, and this
pipe is preferably divided into two
branches. One branch extends out
wardly through the side of the vessel
at a point nea the bow, while the 9TH
er extends rearwardly in the vessel a
considerable distance, finding an out
let near the stern of the boat, and jets
issuing from there will propel the boat
forward. Other openings at the side
and stern have the effect of changing
the course of the craft. In experiment.
ing with a boat of this character it was
demonstrated that she could be turned
in her own length, which is an achieve
ment of some MISUNDERSTANDING
ton Post.

VISITED CAPE MAY.

Quite a number of the residents of
Five Mile Beach went to Cape May
last Saturday, to witness the starting OF
the e dredging machine, I" Pitts
burg which is being used by the
Cape May Real Estate Company in
pumping sand from Cold Spring Inlet,
at SeWells Point. where a 600-acre har-
Dor is being formed. Mayor Millet and
the Cape May City Council sent out
several hundred printed invitations in
addition to extending a general invita-
ton to the people of Cape May and
vicinity to attend. Many men of
national prominence were present, be-
side the lesser lights. a dinner was
served at the Congress Hall hotel and
everything was free to the visitors.
The City was deliberately decorated in
honor of the occasion. Among those
noticed from here were H. l.. Sparklin.
Sidney IL. Ogden, Councilman and
Mrs. II. w. Cobb, Councilman VIM.
r. Pinker, John NeWcomb, Postmaster
w. b. Livezey, John n. Reeve, f. d.
Schell, Charles Sites, Mayor Hilton,
Mayor Baker, j. Thompson Baker.
John Taylor, w. H. Bright, Charles
E. Warner, Candidate for the Assembly
Evans q. Slaughter, Judge Voorhees,.
During the day an accident occurred
which nearly resulted in serious con-
sequences to Messrs. II. l.. Sparklin
and Sidney H. Ogden. They were
riding on the real of a trolley car,
when another car going in the same
direction bumped into them. MI.
Sparklin was thrown flat on his back
and Mr.. Ogden's forehead came in con-
tact with the head Of a member of the
life saving crew. Mr.. Ogden was
partially stunned and a bruise is yet in
evidence on his forehead. The life
ave- was obliged to seek medical
treatment and have his head ~bandaged.

Better Than Pills.

The question has been asked-In
what way are Chamberlain's Stamach
and Liver Tablets superior to the ordi-
nary cathartic and liver pills. Our
answer is-They are easier and more
pleasant to take and tier effect is so
gentle and so agreeable that one hardly
realizes that it is produced by a medi-
cine. Then they not only move the
bowels but improve the appetite and
aid the digestion. For sale at % cents

A lady of one of the old families liv-
ing neal Boston related to a writer the
other day an anecdote of Daniel Web
ster which has never been in print be-
fore. This lady happened to be n of
a few friends who went with Mr.. Web
ster to the hall where hung on exhibit
ton previous to its final location in
Faneuil hall Mr.. Healy's now famous
painting representing Webster making
his reply to Hayne. Mr.. Webster"
said the lady, was very feeble and
was led in by the artist. Ascending the
platform which commanded a view of
the picture, Webster looked at it for
some minutes, making some pleasant
observations to his friends respecting
the different senators and the various
points of interest on the canvas. This
portrait and that were spoken of and
even the pages recognized. Finally,
turning to go, Mr.. Webster quietly re-
marked, And as for hat man standing
there in the center-well, I've seen bet
ter looking men in my day than he"

Lucky Chemists.

The number of chemists shops in
German towns is strictly limited, and
new licenses are rarely granted. The
value of these licensed establishments
is therefore constantly growing. At
Breslau Il chemists shop has just
changed hands for 10000, including
$4,000 for the license alone. At Dant-
zic a chemists business recently real
lied $500, including $4,000 for the Ii
cense. 1t was sold Il fortnight later for
$4,000, including $4,000 for the license.

Foods That Produce Energy.

The value of sugar as an energy pro-
ducing food has been widely noticed
of late. and no doubt the sale of candy
increased thereby. Sweet chocolate
and bread is considered a wholesome
lunch for French school children. but
it need not be said that it is a lunch
and not a ''bite between meals" Figs
and dates have much the same value
as sustaining foods, yet how few peo-
pie use them. Raisins, too. afford both
nourishment and stimulant.
