The Latest on Radium.


1t is matter for satisfaction that
SO much of our present knowledge of
radfum is due to the discoveries made
by Englishmen. Up to the present
no one has contributed more largely
to our knowledge than Prof. Ruther-
ford, who is native Of New Zealand
trained at Cambridge, and at present
holding the position Of professor Of
physics at the University of Montreal.
Prof. Rutherford was the first to pre-
dict that radium is spontaneously
changing into the gas helium-a pre-
diction subsequently verified by Sir
William Ramsay. According to Prof.
Rutherford's latest researches helium
is not the only decomposition product
of radium; number of changes &C.
cur, each corresponding to the pro-
duction of new element which
changes into yet another element.
All the radium at present in the earth
will have disappeared in about 10000
years; but radium is itself being con.
stantly formed, probably by the spon-
taneous decomposition of uranium.
The July number of Technics" con-
tains the first of short series Of arti.
cles on radium by Prof. Rutherford,
in which the latest discoveries relat.
ing to this interesting substance are
described and discussed.

WORLDS FAIR FAR BEYOND EXPECTATIONS

The Worlds Fair at st. Louis is

During July well-known magazine
and newspaper writer from New York,
Mr.. Addison Steele, spent week at
the Worlds Fair, inspecting the
grounds, buildings and various attrac-
lions as thoroughly as was possible in
that limited period. Returning home,
Mr.. Steele published in Brooklyn
Life the following appreciative com.

In the expressive language of the

ALL WANTED NOISY CLOCKS.
Manufacturer Had to Meet Demand
of Savages.

A clockmaker discovered that a
rival was sending out large stocks Of
cheap clocks to the heart of Africa,
and doing good business with them.
He spent large sum in making bet
ter clocks and shipped thousands OF
them to the same market. Strange
to say, his sales were small, although
his rival, turning out a cheap and in.
accurate timepiece, was selling all he
could make. Finally he found key
to the mystery. Savages like noise.
The clocks made by the first exporter

of it. The next cargo Of clocks which
the maker shipped to the Guinea coast
licked louder than anything ever
heard there, and they sold like pink

Of time to explore the most secret re-

the visitors around. In view of what
happened to the Tibetans who opposed
the advance of the expedition this
complaisance Is not unnatural.
Some of the accounts of what the
correspondents saw make delightful
reading. The London Times repre-

quaint tortures Of the damned in this
representation Of the Buddhist Sheol"

How the Waiter Lost a Tip.

How the Waiter Lost a Tip.
At one of the Kansas City hotels
where the colored walters give espe-
cially good service, but always expect
adequate remuneration for the same
from the guests, waiter was espe-
cially offlcious the other day in serv-
ing man from whom he expected a
liberal tip. When the meal had been
served and he was standing off at one
side, eagerly looking for an opportu-
nifty to be Of service, he said to the
guest:
Didn't yo' have a hrothah heah last
week, sah?"
"No," said the one addressed, II be-
iieve not"
WELL" continued the waiter, "theh
was a gem'man heah at NAH table
what looked ve'y much like you, and
he was SO we'll pleased with the serv-
ice that he gave me so cents when he
left"
The guest had by this time finished
his meal, and as he arose he said to
the expectant servitor:
"Come to think of 1t, Sam, that was
my brother that was here, and I guess
he paid you for the whole family. He
may be back again in week or two"
