must be admitted that protection is
not applied equally. and unequal tax

very nature of things protection can
not be universal or there would be no
benefit for anyone. If everyone were
taxed for the benefit of every one
else no one would be the gamer. The

RADIUM,
The Wonderful Discovery Of a
Woman Scientist.

Much attention has betn given
lately to the discovery of radium,
by Madam Curie, a woman scient-
ist Of Paris. She and her hus-
band have lately discovered, by
careful scientific investigation, a
mineral worth its weight three
thousand times in gold.
There has never been a sub
stance before known to have such
wonderful power of giving out
heat and light. Without the aid
of the suns rays, without losing
any of its own energy, or dimin-
ishing it's own weight, it's rays will
penetrate a thick layer of books
or a large block of wood almost in
simultaneously. 1t has the power
to kill and to cure. 4 small guam
tity inserted into the neck of a ra-
bit destroys its life Immediately.
If glass tube containing a very
small portion of radium, be CARR
ed in the vest pocket it will make
sore upon the flesh which it will
take many days to heal. If a
sufficient quantity be used human
lives may be killed as we'll as small
animals.
It's usefulness has already been
tested Madame Curie herself
amused the ladies at recent re-
ception by testing the purity Of
their diamonds by means of radl-
um, which causes the real stones
when brought near it in dark
room to glow with brilliant light
but has no effect whatever upon
the limitations.
a tiny particle of radium has
the power to light large sized
room, and has heat enough to melt
piece of ice equal to it's own
weight. Cancers have been cured
by it and it is thought that con-
sumption could be cured by inha-
ling the gases from radium.
One scientist asserts that the
sun is largely made up of this sub
stance, which is the cause of it's
great power to impart light and
heat. But on the earth radium is
scarce-so rare that there is proba
bly, not more than one teaspoon
full in the whole world.
Investigation is now being made
at Hot Springs for the discovery
of radium, and who knows bat |
what the secret of the wonderful
healing properties of this boiling
water is not due to the presence |
Of radiun?
