Some forty-two chemists were lately
given samples of an ore from New Jer-
sey to work upon. When their results
were compared it was found that
some affirmed the presence of 80 per
cent. of zinc, while others reported
but I2 per cent. OF iron some found
81. % per cent, others 1904 per cent.
In another ore some found 3.SS per
cent. of zinc and 10 per cent. of iron,
while others found but 2S.9 per cent.
of zinc and s. per cent. of iron. In
view of these analyses the committee
of uniformity in technical analysis in
recent report holds that there is
'ample demonstration that analytical
chemistry. as ordinarily practiced, is
anything but an exact branch of the
chemical profession.

Ii is not always easy to bride our
thoughts. When out of humOr, and
everything looks as though we gazed
through blue colored glasses, or when
we feel that we have been wronged
by friend, and we become angry. we
are often tempted to speak hasty.
sharp words, and too often we yield
TO the temptation. When in either
one of such moods. it is dangerous TO
permit the tongue TO play too freely.
Words spoken then are like daggers
thrown into the heart. They make
wounds that cause the heart TO bleed
And, too, il takes a long time for
such wounds to completely heal. In
many cases they never do. Hence. it
behooves us as intelligent, rational
and sensible men and women to be
careful, very careful. about our ton
CUES when we are out of humor. II
we are not, friendships will be de-
stroyed, affections alienated and
hearts will be made sick from bleed
ing. The sweet scented flowers of
friendship that have budded and
bloomed in the regions of heart for
months and years and decades may be
blighted in a moments time by the
frost of angry words. Castles builded
by Love, and, more beautiful that
Mahomets vision Of heaven, easily
fall before the storm and rain of angry
words. Therefore. we should bride
our tongues, lest we regret it. lest we
