Roosevelt In ..Lit;ie Hungary"

When Kossuth visited the United
States he was received everywhere
with the most enthusiastic and atfec-
tionate demonstration by the Ameri-
can people, who entertained a profound
sympathy for the Hungarian nation in
their struggle against the rule of the
House of Austria.
Hungary has never forgotten that
sympathy and that hearty reception to
her illustrious son. President Roose-
velt's graceful visit to the Hungarian
colony in New York last night was a
marked recognition of Hungarian
Americanism which was keenly appre-
ciated by New York magyars, and will
give qualification to the people ofHun-
gary when they read accounts of it in
their newspapers.
1t has been said that Theodore Roose-
welt was one of the most adrolt politi-
clans of the age, but the secret of his
political success is that of doing the
right thing in the right time and place.
If the motives of his most popular acts
are examined it will be incontestably
proven that he acted without a thought
of political effect, but solely with a
conviction of right and justice and
personal duty. He was thus inspired
when he resigned a high Federal office
to organize IA regiment for the wal
with Spain. 1t was thus he acted as
Governor of New York, and when as
President he settled the great coal
strike. 1t is fair to say that that visit
to the Hungarian colony in New York
has made every member of it a fervent
Roosevelt man.-Ne1Oark advertiser.

and receives the promises and
works of God, his maker and
Savior, and learns of them and
holds fast to them till they become
the substance of things hoped for
and the evidence of things not
seen. 1t is the hand of God, full
of grace and truth, extended to his
creature man, separated from him
by sin, saying "come unto me all
ye that labor and are heavy laden
and l will give you rest" "Take
my yoke upon you and learn of
me, for l am meek and lowly in
heart, and ye shall find rest unto
your souls, for my yoke is easy and
my burden is light. Mat ch. IL,

want to treat them seriously, as there is
no humor in pain and affection. 1t is
impossible for a patient to impress on
others the sufferings they endure. To
Set well or be relieved is their one thought,
a remedy that will do this has their last

Upon My Honor
AS an American Citizen,

I consider Paracamph, First Aid to the
Injured, to be Americas most reliable
household remedy. fully believe and will
guarantee Paracamph to be the quickest
and surest relieving and healing agent
ever offered to the public for Burns, Cuts,
Bruises, Swellings and inhammations. 1t
is an absolute preventive OF Blood
Poisoning, for Which reason alone II
should be kept in every home, shop, or
factory, iaiscs nlpii heals without ieav'
ing ugly scars. 1t does not dry and scab,
out actually heals, from the bottom of
the wound UP. Paracamph is unequaled
for the quick relief it gives in cases of
Neuralgia, Rheumatic Swellings, Sore
Feet, Sore Muscles, Itching and Burning
Skin, Itching Piles, Insect Bites, Swell
ings and Inflammations. 1t is superior
to old fashioned salves and liniments,
arnica and vaseline, for the reason that
when applied it opens the pores of the
skin, penetrates directly to the seat of the
ailment, stimulates the circulation re-
moves the congestion and draws out all
soreness, fever and inflammation by induc-
ing sweating. / guarantee every bottle
of Paracamph to do exactly what is
claimed for it when applied as directed.
If used as advised without giving the
promised results every retail druggist is
authorized to refund the money. Don't
take any substitute, there is nothing ''jrst
as good as Paracamph. M

A Thing We DO Not Understand as
Well as We Thought - Plan
for Weather Bureau.


We are apt to believe great
ly in the progress made in
electrical research, and TO JOY
in our ability to handle the
strange forces of nature-un-
til a thunder storm" wrecks a
house with a bolt whose spark
gap" is a thousand feet. and the
voltage of which is estimated at
100, 100000. The lightning rod, to
all intents and purposes, is to.
day the identical instrument in
vented by Franklin. The Elec-
trical World publishes the follow
ing on the subject: "We have
rather come to the opinion thar
the chief trouble with the light
ming arrester question is still lack
of knowledge regarding the thing
which is to be arrested. We all as
sumo, and probably correctly, that
lightning, being in the nature of
condensed discharge, is essen
italy Oscillatory in its nature.
The virtual capacity involved and
hence the frequency is an un-
known quantity, like the poten-
tial concerned in the discharge. 1t
is certain that lightning flashes
sweep over very great distances
ranging from a few hundred feet
up to several thousand, but the
voltage from which these pro
digious striking distances result
cannot yet be evaluated.
present devices for the pro
lection of apparatus and lines
against lightning are based on the
conception of lightning as a rapid
oscillatory discharge. 1t is pos
sible, however, that some light
ming at least may have a pretty
slow period, or may be damped
into virtually single rush, of a
sort which cannot readily be
chOked back. Certainly lightning
is of an immensely variable char
acter, so that congratulations re
garding it are altogether unsafe.
The trouble with the experimental
study of lightning is the COMPARE
tive rarity of lightning itself at
any one station, rarity that for
practical purposes is increased
nearly three-fOld by the shortness
during the lightning season, of the
hours of darkness during which
a Photographic method could be
applied. 1t strikes us that the
damage done annually by light
ming is sufficient to justify the
weather bureau in undertaking
some such systematic investiga-
ton of the subject as might lead
TO better preventive measures.
There is just the sort of persistent
attention required that it is ex-
tremely difficult to obtain save
with professional observers who
can be on the watch without being
called off by other duties. With
work intelligently distributed
among the various stations a few
years would see the accumulation
of a great deal of valuable infor.
nation without any very great ex.
pense. If the work led to the pre-
ventiOn of even a small percent.
age of the damage annually done
by lightning it would pay merely
as matter of business. 1t is par.
tlcularly a matter for the govern
ment to take up on account of the
public nature of the service. and
