ereble In any direct way to our sense

we'll to carry the waves OF Hight and tho
waves OF electricity, but how about the
attractive force Of gravity? How can a
med um Of that description cause a stone
to fall to tho ground. or a planet to
follow curved orbit about the sun?
This question Professor Reynolds I'M
dertakes to answer II his answer is cor
rect. he has produced ono Of the great
est generallzations OF science.
All that can BIO done here Is to give a
bare suggestion OF his theory. Ho HIM
self puts It in nutshell by tho decla-
ration that I'VE are all waves'-that is
to say. every kind and form OF matter
is phenomenon OF the all-embracing
ether.
The ether is at tho bases OF graNtation
as well as Of light and electricity. And
lifo itself Is simply a resultant OF wave
motion In the universal medium.
Professor Reynolds originality consists
in regarding the ether not as an elastic
Jelly. but as granular substance. whose
particles are arranged like pile OF
shot.
Starting with this assumption, he is
ablo fundamentally to show that all the
phenomena mentioned above follow az
natural consequences.
1t may be interesting to know what the
diameter OF one OF the particles COM
posing the wonderful ether is. According
to our authors calculations, 1t comes out
as ono forty-two thousand mllllon-mil-
lionths Of IN inch It may prove a
strengthening exercise for tho reader
Imagination to try to see such particle
with his minds eye.
And the pressure OF this medium is
figured at 10000 tons to the square inch.
The practical value OF such a speclla-
ton Is that II 1t proves to be sound, It
may give us an entirely new grasp on
the problem Of mastering the Illmltable
forces Of nature for our benefit.

BEAUTY WRECKED
BY DISSIPATION

A New York special to the Cincinnati
Enquirer says:
On the day that Mrs. Herbert Bowen,
wife of the brilliant young diplomat
whose skill in handling the Venezuelan
episode has brought him international
fame. was being honored by the ladies Of
the Cabinet circle In Washington her
unfortunate sister, Mrs. Anna Uegg
Taylor, was sentenced in tho Harlem
Court to six months in the Magdalene
Home. The woman is habitual drunk
ard. and her commitment was at the
intercession Of q relative. who wished to
keep her from o life In the streets.
Mrs. Taylor, despite her dissipation,
retains traces of her former striking
beauty, and her well-bred air has not
altogether deserted her. She begged
piteously not to be sent away to the
corrective institution. and in her hyster1a
betrayed her relationship to Carolyn
Bowen. the diplomats wife.
Mr. and Mrs. Taylor came to New York
on "a visit and stopped at the Hotel I'm
perdal. So fascinating did Mrs. Taylor
fnc life in the metropolis that she per-
suaded Mr.. Taylor to make his home here,
and he established branch of his cotton
business In this city.
Her sprees became 80 frequent that
finally Mr. Taylor secured DIVORCE and
since then every effort to reform her has
been without avail.

He was one Of the foremost spirits

Six year ago he died He provided

major portion of his estate to his wife.
Among one Of the bequests was leEn-,

Sir Williams will. however empower

OF certain conditions before he could take
possession.
The nephew refused to comply with
these exactions from tho first. and has
declined to accept the property unless
the conditions controlling the bequest
are removed.

conditions which have barred him from

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is II
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Z Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
Is the safest and most efficient disin-
fectant and purifier In nature. but few
realize It's value when taken into the
human system for tho same cleansing
purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of 1t, the better; 1t is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases

Charcoal ehectuGlly clears and improves

But as q matter of fact, Newton was
as completely puzzled as anybody to ac-
count for the action OF gravity. He de-
monBtrated the mathematical laws which
the so-called attraction between bodies

to what the attraction Is and how 1t ope-
rates.
Ono thing Newton's mind ned from

that two bodies entirely separated from
one another and having no physical con-
neotion. could nevertheless act upon each
other, as, for instance, by pulling them
selves together.
