WoMAN's MAGIC MIRRORS.
Japanese Lucky Glass Is the Simplest
and Best Example-Queer Freak
ish Reflections.

A magic mirror is now part of
every well regulated London
household. The. belief that GER
tain bright substances can be so
impressed with the magnetism of
a person as to reflect to the clair
voyant gaze that PERSONS
thoughts and feelings is almost as
old as a wom9n's vanity which
first prompted.the mirror.
Perhaps the Japanese lucky
mirror is the simplest and best
known example, says the Detroit
Tribune. One side of this is very
highly polished, and the other is
chased in low relief with figures of
clouds, birds and talismanic ideO-
graphs. Its mechanism is such
that when a beam of light is
thrown upon it and reflected
upon a dark wall a luminous fig
ure or pOrtent appears within the
luminous circle. This, of course, is
achieved by means of a slide
slipped into the center of the mir
rOr.
There is another kind of magic
mirror which at certain Oblique
angles will disclose figures which
at right angles are invisible. An
other kind set at the bottom of a
cylinder reflects from the base in
the ordinary way, but the waved
and huted inner surface of the
cylinder twists the reflections
into all kinds Of fanciful shapes
and produces focal circles at vari-
GUS points. The gazer here sees
from one point Of view a strange,
shadowy face beside his own, and
from another a misty, radiant
halo about his head, while from a
third a face is seen clearly in his
own reflected eyes.
These are all mechanical con
trivances. The more psychic kind
of magic mirrors depend for their
efficacy upon their power to alb.
sorb physiological magnetism, al
though many Of the floating or re.
volying variety produce their eff
fects by .hypnotizing the gazer.

POPE AND CHURCH MUSIC.
Papal Decree Forbids Women's Voices
in Choirs-Dignity and Quality
Of Trained Male Voice.

Voltaire, not necessarily with
habitual irreyerence, character
lied the musical service of the
Roman church as the "poor mans
opera" In its highly specialized
and elaborated form Catholic mu-
sic undoubtedly has attractions
for many worshipers which
heighten the religious solemnity
of the ritual and deepen its effect.
Such church goers naturally re,
gard with great regret, says the
New York World, the papal de-
cree fOrbidding women's voices in
chOirs and ruling out the more
sensuous compositions of the
great masters of operate har-
mony. They have hoped hat the
decree may be modified to except
the American churches from it's
application.
Yet there can be no doubt that
a more general use of the Gre.
gorian chant and of the simpler
but no less beautiful works OF
Palestrina and the earlier church
composers would furnish a per
fectly acceptable substitute fol
the more artificial modern music
No attendant at the Paulist
church has come away unim
pressed by the rare beauty Of the
Gregorian service there. The re
vival Of medieval church religion
music by the Musical Art societ!
has excited much enthusiasm
The absence of organ and the en-
tire lack Of artificial embellish
ment does not detract from thu
fine effect of the unaccompanie,
male voices in the Greek church.
There is, indeed, to many hear
ers, a dignity and a quality to tn
trained male voice which seems I,
interpret better than any Othe
vocal medium the inner spiritual
ity of sacred music.

a Wonderful Coil.

The largest Induction coil, which

HoW RADIUM IS sEcuREp.
Interesting, But Tedious, Process of
Extracting This Valuable Sub
stance Briefly Described.

In spite of the fact that radium
has been so widely discussed,
probably few people are acquaint-
ed with the method by which it is
secured in the minute quantities
that are as yet available, says the
Western Electrician.
That the element is obtained
from pitch-blende is generally
known, but some details of the ex.
act progress will be of interest.
According to the Lancet opera
tiOns for the extractiOns are com.
menced by crushing the pitch
blende and then roasting the pow
der with carbonate of soda. After
washing, the residue is treated
with dilute sulphuric acid; then
the sulphates are converted into
carbOnates by boiling with strong
carbonate of soda. The residue
contains radium sulphate, which
is an exceedingly insoluble salt.
The soluble sulphates are washed
out, and the residue or insoluble
portion is easily acted upon by
hydrOchloric acid, which takes
out, among other things, Poleni
um and actinium. c Radium sui

THE ROMANCE OF HEARTS.
Custom of Their Separate Burial Has
Not Been Uneommon-Case Of
Richard Occur de Leon.

The separate burial of hearts is
not such a singular occurrence as
many readers may be apt to sup
pose. History supplies us with
numerous instances, says the New
York Tribune.
When Richard the Lionhearted
was mOrtally wounded in the at.
tack on the castle of Chaluz he
expressed a wish that his body
should be buried at the feet of his
father at Fontevraud, in token of
his sorrow for the trouble and
anxiety which he had formerly
caused him. But he bequeathed
his heart to the inhabitants of
Rouen as an acknowledgment of
the faithfulness of his Norman
subjects. The somewhat singular
gift was gratefully accepted, and
was hOnored with a beautiful
shrine in the cathedral. This was
destroyed in 1913, but about a cen.
fury later the heart of the famous
crusader was found inclOsed in a
leaden casket under the pavement
of the cathedral. 1t was replaced,
but some time later was again ia
ken up and deposited in the
Museum of Antiquities, from
which it was in turn removed to a
more appropriate resting place in
the'chOir of the cathedral, where
it now remains.
On the death Of John Ballot,
of that Ballot who opposed v
.ruce's claim to the throne of
Scotland, his widow. ordered his
Ieart to be removed and placed in
IN ivory casket. Although she
survived her husband 20 years, it
$ said that she never sat down to !
meal without having the casket
her. In accordance with
Ter dying request the heart was oi
on her dead bosom pre- q
'ious to interment in her own alb. St
ley, which was situated on the
banks of the NTH. -.
When the great Napoleon died
in st. Helena his heart was re.
moved in order that it might be
placed in a separate case. The
doctor who removed it set it un-
der a glass case in his bedroom. !
During the night he was startled
by the sound of breaking glass,
and he just managed to prevent a
large rat from carrying off the
heart to its hole. The heart was
Immediately placed in an urn and
secured in the coffin beside the
body.

fitness and strength the Japan
se article differs considerably
ON the papers made elsewhere.
his is partly due to the material
'sed and partly to the mode of
Oflanufacture. The former in
sesiudes the bark of the mulberry
aSree and the fbers of other plants,
nd the latter involves hand-work
lmOst exclusively. The Anglo
as apanese Gazette says that one Of
tShe most important plants whose
ark is thus utilized is the kodsu.
The bark is removed from tender
lhOots, not over a year old, and
Abe. resulting strips are cut into
@Iniform lengths of a yard, for con
yenience in arranging in bundles.
The strips of bark are softened
N running water, and gently
boiled in vats containing wood
ashes. The mixture is then treat
edwitbc banneled mallets on thick
agOOden planks. The product is
twisted and turned frequently IN
der water until it becomes a pulpy
Amass, which passes into the hands
s0f the artisan who transforms it
into paper. The fbers are fast
.ened together, not with animal
iglue, but with a cement made of
the roots of a certain plant. By
using a rectangular sieve Of very
:ane bamboo fbers, the necessary
quantity of pulp is removed, and,
after all the water has filtered
through the sieve the leaf is partly
dried, after which it is, rubbed
with a soft instrument on a plank
and exposed to the sun until com
pletely dried, when it is easily de
'tached from the plank.

constitution is closely connected
with the Japanese arts of writing
and painting, both of which use

POOLE AND KERR APPEAL,
LakefieId Game Men Seek Relief
From The Supreme Court.
From Tuesdays Dali,

riOAh L uCouoy .
Robert Poole and William Kerr of
Lakefeld, who were some months ago
convicted of the biggest enterprise in the
way of alleged game smuggling ever at
tempted in this state, have appealed to
the supreme court from the Judgment of
the district court of jackson county.
In September last a shipment of 1000
wild ducks was seized near the Iowa
state line, en- route from Lakefeld or
jackson, in this state, to Montgomery,
Iowa. Kerr, who is a commission mer-
chant at Lakefeld, and Robert Poole,
one of his employees, were arrested in
connection with the attempted viola
tion of the state game laws; and ON evil
dence furnished by the state game and
fish commission, were convicted in the
district court of jackson county. They
were fined the minimum amount pre-
scribed in the law, which is $40 for each
bird, and consequently each of them
was penalized to the extent of $4,000.
The appeal is rested chiefly upon the
ground that the evidence did not prove
any responsibility on the part of Poole
and Kerr for the shipment of the birds.
