AKIN TO X-RAYS.
RadiatiOns of Light That Have Been
Designated by the
Letter '.N."

1t has been found lately that most
of the artificial sources of light emit
radiations capable of traversing met
ais and number of other bodies
opaque to light; that is to say, radia-
tons affecting the eye as light. These
rays, which are distinguished by the
name of en-" enhance the phosphor-
escence of phosphorescent substances,
and M. Blondlot, the well-known
scientist, has employed this fact In
trying whether such rays are emitted
by the sun, says the London Globe.
To this end he placed tube Of phos-
phorescent material, for example,
sulphide of calcium, behind an oaken
panel or oaken shutter closing win
dow exposed to the sun and keeping
the chamber dark. If now plate Of
lead, or even the hand, be interposed
between the shutter and the tube the
phosphorescence diminishes, and when
the plate is withdrawn it increases.
The experiment is so simple that
many can repeat it. The panel of oak
had a thickness of fifteen millimetres.
The phosphcrescence is rather feeble
at first, and sheet of black paper
may be held as background to the
tube. Plates of aluminium and card
board between the shutter and the
tube do not prevent the phenomenon.
The "n" rays from the sun can be
concentrated by a lens of quartz.
They. are reflected by polished glass
and diffused by ground glass. Like
the IN" rays from a Crookes tube, or
a flame, those of the sun act on a
small spark and tiny flame so as to
increase their brightness, but M.
Blondlot has not obtained any pho
tographic effect from these rays.

A Boys victory.

Crossroads, Tenn, Sept 4-Orbra Young.
the ten-year-old son of Lester Young, of this
place, is a bright boy, and one who is very
well liked by all who know him.
For some years Orbra has suffered great
deal with form of Kidney Trouble which
was very annoying, and which made him mis-
cradle all the time. He had to get up three
or four times every night, almost all his
life.
His father heard of remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and bought some for the lit
tie fellow with the result that he is now CON-
pletely cured of the old trouble. He says:
'Dodd's Kidney Pills soon gave me great
relief, and now can sleep all night without
having to get up, We will always praise
Dodd's Kidney Pills"
There are many children suffering from
Kidney and Urinary troubles. These dis
orders should be promptly corrected. Dodd's
Kidney Pills is a safe and sure remedy for
all such arrangements.
Master Orbra Young conquered his trou-
bles and made well boy of himself by using
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and any one may do
the same by the same means.
Parents should see to it that their children
are given fair chance in life, and there is
nothing that can undermine the health of
growing child as much as Kidney and Uri-
nary arrangements.

WHEN NOT TO FISH.
Fish Are Sensitive to Weather Even
II Not Affected by the
Zodiac.

Anglers know that fish are more sub
maid in a Maine town, and the wise ones
among them who go into the woods for
an outing OF weeks do their fishing only
when the skies are propitious, says the
New York SUM-
They fish steadily through days OF
good fish weather and stay quietly in the
hotel playing seven-up and bridge whist
through days of bad fish weather and
have good time. They show more fish
at the end Of the trip than the inexpe-
rienced fellows who rush out upon the
rivers and lakes morning after morning
no matter what the temperature and hui
nudity.
DR.. John Crawford, one of the passen-
ger agents of the Louisville and Nash
willie railroad, has theory that there
are only two or three good fishing days
in month. and that muskallonge, trout
and bass are governed by the signs OF
the zodiac. He fishes only when the sign
of Cancer is dominant, or, as he ex-
presses it, when "the sign is in the
stomach" He catches good many fish
on his days, too.
Old hands who do not carry almanacs
in their grips, watch the skies and sally
when things are just right. The ideal
fishing day for lake or streams is one
when the sky is overcast steadily by light
gray clouds sufficiently dense to hide the
sun and there is just enough of breeze to
maintain ripples on the water.
If the sun comes out the day will be
more than half spoiled, and if the breeze
dies out it will be wholly so. Just as bad
state of things will follow If there is a
hard rain, though fish will always bite
during drizzle, or if the breeze increases
to high wind making the water rough
On a gray day, with steady, light
breeze, bass or trout will always bite at
any time of the season.
Again there are days when fish cannot
be tempted to strike at any sort of lure
live, dead or artificial, no matter how in
dustriously and scientifically the angler
casts for them. This sort Of day is per-
fectly still with the water like mirror
and not breath of air to crinkle the sur
face. At such time the bottom of a
clear lake may be discerned at depth OF
from ten to 90 feet, and the fish are abso-
lutely nonresponsive to coaxing.
1t Is true that they retire to holes sc
deep that they cannot be seen even with
the aid Of water glass, or else to tangles
Of rice and lily pads where they are Sc
curely hidden, but even though their
lurking places be known they cannot be
induced to take hold. If, however, the
weather should change, the sky become
overcast with a moderate southerly OF
easterly breeze, in half an hour the fish
will have taken their accustomed sta
lions, will have gone to feeding and will
strike avidly at any lure which comes
along.

A distinguished French novelist,
whose works are extremely popular
with the fair sex, recently found him
self travelling in railway carriage
with two very talkative women. Hav-
ing recognized him from his published
portraits they both opened fire upon
him in regard to his novels, which they
praised in a manner that was unen-
durable to the sensitive author Fortu-
nately the train entered a tunnel, and
in the darkness the novelist, who
understood women, lifted the back of
his hand to his lips and kissed it sound
ingly. When light returned he found
the two women regarding each other
in icy silence, and, addressing them
with great sauvity, he said: '.Ah.
madames, the regret of my life will
hereafter be that 1 shall never know
which one of you it was that kissed
me"@BOstOn Globe

Not Up to the Part.

Except in time of war the soldier is
popularity supposed to lead an idle life,
barring bit of drill. Really he must
be an actor in addition to his more
martial qualifications. How many per-
sons could stand for hours and hours
immovable, as the guards did who
watched Queen Victoria's coffin?
The requisites of the "brave sojer
man" appear in story of a drill
master who was putting raw COM
pany through the exercises of funeral
service. He had them drawn up with
their arms reversed, and then he said:
Now I'll be the hearse."
so he marched solemnly down the
line at slow pace. Turning his eyes
to the side to see how his men were
behaving, he stopped suddenly and
roared:
Cant you men put on an expression
Of regret?"

FEARED A SEPARATION.
The Dear Little Lamb Was AfraAo
Her Father Might BE Put

Her father had read her the parable of the
sheep and the goats at the day of judgment.
She made no comment, but that night
sound of weeping came from her room. Her
mother went as consider, relates Brooklyn
Life.
why are you crying, dear?"
about the goats! Oh, I'm so afraid I'm

why, no, dearie, you are sweet little
lamb, and if you should die tonight you
would go straight to Heaven" With this
and like assurances she was finally pacifed.
The next night the same performance was
repeated, and again her mother inquired the
reason,
Its the goats! I'm afraid about the
goatsw
Didn't tell you, dear, that you were .

"Oh," she sobbed, 'I'm not crying about

An Ice Cream IdyI.

Gentle reader, didst thou ever order one
plate. OF ice cream with two spoons! Honest,
and there was only one girl in all the world,
and she had a round face like the full moon
and as full of freckles as the skin of brook
trout? Did you, now? Come, own up! 1t
was down in the little ice cream shop, the
only one in the village, and you were dread
fully angry when the lady who waited on
YOU smiled, as you thought. You would
have been glad to get along with one spoon
and take turns in licking, but you were too
bashful for that. Still, you used to share
ticks when you thought the smiling lady
was not looking, and love went with them,
and the ice cream was twice as sweet and
havorsome. What You never did? You
really never did? Well, then, son, you have
never known what Heaven on earth is. Your
education has been neglected.-N. Y. News.

Klondike Gold.

The Klondike district does not give
promise of increasing its output OF
gold over that of last year, which
amounted to $12,000.O0O. Lack of new
strikes or discoveries since the mem
orable find in 1896 has set a limit on
the output and it is now on the de-
cline. having at this date produced
over 100000 in gold. The Nome
mining district is daily increasing as
a producer and is being extended over
a vast expanse Of territory, projecting
from Golovia bay to the Arctic ocean
and east inland from the Behring sea
as far as the difficulties of transporta-
ton will permit.-Albany Argus.

ssMcGuffey's New Fifth Reader
Found in some dusty nook;

OF careful stitch and fold
Let's surn the ragged pages
And see what ii may hold.
They've raised the schoolroom WINDOW

And there's pigeon struttlns
With melancholy coo;
And over there hillside
Where leafy. spreading trees
Wave arms in useless summons
With every passing breeze.
OF yonder is an orchard-
Don't YOU catch the perfume
And hear the teacher thank us
For that big bunch of bloom?
The buzzing sounds of study
And writing-can't you hear!
And see where all the bad boys
Have good seats at the rear?
Now, let your head drop slowly
And look away-away-
Straight through the open window,
Through all the miles of day,
Across the signing meadow,
And down the merry brook,
Which babbles at its travels
Through tempting field and nook.
The old school-bell, You hear 1t?
And don't 1t bring to you
The lazy early mornings
When flowers dripping dew
Smiled knowingly, and Haunted
Their banners in your way?
It's all in this Fifth Reader
Which you have found to-day.
