The Annihilation Of Time and Space.

A few days ago the International
Geographic Congress met in Washing
ton. One of the features OF the meet.
ing was the sending of telegraphic in.
ternational greetings to all parts OF the
civilized world, on the instant after
the midnight signal was received from
the Washington observatory. These
messages traversed the surface of the
globe, east and west. They met at
Adelaide, Australia, fourteen seconds
after they left Washington. Within
the next few minutes came answering
messages, in many languages, from
scientific men all around the world,
who were awaiting the Washington
dispatch.
Thus has science annihilated time
and space. Nothing in the way Of
communication can be quicker than
electricity. The delay is in the time
taken in "pounding the key" in the
sending of the message, in writing it
out at the receiving point, and in
sending it by messenger to the recip-
lent. Science has overcome the main
difficulty. All the rest is detail, which
must be reduced to a minimum by in.
dustrial ingenuity.

Is best to let the sunlight into your houses

At the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti-
tute, Buffalo, N. ", DR.. Pierce, chief con-
sulting surgeon, started experiments, some
three years ago. with the Finsen light IN
conjunction with the X-ray in the treat
ment of diseases. He got excellent results
therefroni. and was among the first to adapt
this remarkable cure to many cases which
it was formerly supposed must of necessity
be treated by the knife.
Not only is DIR. R. v. Pierce notable for
his surgical achievements at his hospital In
Buffalo, but nearly third of a century ago
he discovered certain roots and herbs
which were natures remedies, and sue
ceeded in putting them up in form that
would be easily procured and ready to use.
This he called DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. 1t maintains the patients nu-
triton by enabling him to eat retain, digest
and assimiiate nutritious food. 1t over
comes gastric irritability and symptoms of
indigestion, and in this way fever, night
sweats, headaches etc, are done away with.
It fortifes the body against the germs of
consumption, grip and malaria, it builds
up the tissues and puts on healthy flesh.
Those desiring to know something about
the body in health and disease, also medi-
should read the "Common Sense Medical
Adviser" which can be had for 81 cents in
one-cent stamps for the cloth bound book.

Cruelty to Animals.

day:
"There is a story about clergy
man who discovered his cook skinning
an eel alive. Why he said, that is
cruel way to treat eels, isn't itf"
But the cook, with careless laugh,
answered.: Oh, they're used to it, sir. >
"And, indeed, sll animals, if they
are not used to cruelty, ought to be,
for they have endured it for hundreds
Of years.
"Do you know that in certain for.
eign countries the various down.bear-
ing fowls are plucked alive? Men hold
them in their hands and tear the
feathers from their trembling breasts
because feathers taken from live birds
bring better price at the upholster-
ers' than those taken from dead ones.

pecuniary support OF all who have the
real welfare of the people OF this ma
ton at heart.
Biggs estimates that New York city
sustains an annual economic loss OF
$23,OOO,O00, and that the nation at
large must sustain an annual loss OF
$3.50, 100000 because OF tuberculosis.
There are nearly 10000 deaths from
consumption in New York city. Seven
thousand persons died in Illinois in
1903, half Of them between the ages OF
20 and so years, while the estimated
loss to the S.a.e alone. because Of this
disease, was $4,000, 900, and the medi.
cal authorities of that State have
found that consumption is responsible
for more deaths than typhoid fever,
scarlet fever, diphtheria, all forms of
bronchitis. influenza, measles and
smallpox combined.

There was once a woman whose
clothes were always becoming.
And the other women united in say.

"How can she, on her husbands in.

She had been married seven years
and was childless.
And her friends, who had also been
married seven years, and rejoiced in
abundance of little olive plants, said:
How can . woman 90 disregard
her duty to the race?
She was shapely and kept her chin
in when she walked.
"No woman that has so good fig.
ure can be other than frivolous"
She kept the same maid for five
years.
And the women that changed ser.
wants every two weeks said:
"But We require our housekeeping
to be we'll done."
She did not go in for Maeterlinck
nor Browning clubs.
And the women that strove to be
accepted by magazines said:
"A true wife should be a companion
to the intellectual side of her hus.

She went to dances and was never q

And all the women that knew bez

HOUSES ROTARY PLATFORMS
Novel Invention by Which Sunshine May Be
Enjoyed all Day Long
New York Timer

New York Times.
DIR. Pcllegrin and Architect Petit, of
Paris, have designed, according to re-
cent cable dispatches, a method by
which houses, erected on specially
constructed, rotating platforms, can be
made to face any desired direction.
The platform, as planned, is sup.
ported by two conceptric walls. and
the axis OF rotation is occupied by
ehaft through which pass the supply
and waste pipes. A gas engine moves
the platform, which may be harnessed
to clockwork. The clockwork may be
SO arranged rs to enable the house
front to follow the sun during the day.
The plan has attracted the attention
of scientists throughout the civilized
world. The curative power of the
suns rays has long been admitted.
Their potentiality as disease preven-
.:~e is beyond dispute.
That New York is the one city able
to construct whole street of houses
on rotating platforms. or any other
kind of platforms which may prove
fad, is beyond peradventure.
Until the engineering possibilities
OF the proposition are demonstrated
beyond doubt" said Commissioner
Thomas Darlington, OF the Department
OF Health, yesterday. al question its
feasibility. But if the rotating houses
are possible there can be no discussion
as to their desirability.
"The sun kills disease germs. It's
rays constitute the best disinfectant
known. They are the principal fac.
tors in increasing the red blood cor
puscles. Iron is of very little value in
providing red blood unless combined
with the sun. The Romans and an
cient peoples knew the value OF the
sun, for they constructed their houses
so that they might take sun baths
upon their roofs. The Aztecs and the
dwellers in the southwestern portion
OF this continent were formerly sun
worshippers, for they knew its munif-
cent effects.
"The chief benefits to accrue to
people going to the far West are due
to the comparative absence of cloudy
days. There are parts of the United
States which enjoy perpetual sunshine.
Sunshine is the greatest destroyer OF
mildew and mold. 1t is a purifier of
water. People who work during the
night are invariably pallid OF face and
f1abby of muscle. Their blood is i'm
poverished. They are not armed for
the battle OF life.
"Above all, sunshine is the one
agency most conducive to cheerful
ness. It is the cheapest kind of medi.
cine. Rotating houses, constructed to
point toward the sun from its rising to
its setting, would be rather expensive,
but to those who could afford the lux
ury they would we'll repay the cost"

The Worlds Finest Clock,
Electrical World and Engineer.

The best timekeeper in the world is
said to be the electric clock to the
basement of the Berlin Observatory,
which was installed by Prof. Forester
in 1865. 1t is inclosed in an alright
glass cylinder and has frequently run
for periods OF two or three months
with an average daily deviation OF
only fifteen one.thousandths of sec.
ond. Astronomers are making efforts
to improve even this and to secure
even ideal conditions for the clock by
keeping it not only in an alright case,
but in an underground vault, where
neither changes Of temperature nor OF
barometric pressure shall ever effect
it.

IMMORTALITY.

That stretched OF old upon the plain.

And now it lies o'erlaid with dust.
