MEN OF BUSINESS RECOGNIZE
ADVANTAGES OF AcETYLENE.
Famous Summer Hotel, the Grand
Union II Saratoga, Has Installed
This Best Of All Artificial Lights-

Health.

Saratoga, June 27.-The very name,

has been for many years the
Mecca for all who admire nature,
enjoy good living, and are searching
for health, or are simply taking va.

spirit always shown by it's manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to it's attractiveness by introduc-
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge-
NAL proprietors believe in furnishing
their guests with the best of every
thing, and now. after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
it, and have connected upward of six
thousand acetylene burners in and
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant.
Like many discoveries of recent
years which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene, one of the most re.
cent, is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light is needed and the necessary ap-
paratus can be understood and oper.
ated by anyone.
The generator in which AcetylenA
is produced by the automatic contact
of carbide and water might be termed
gas plant, as it performs all of the
functions Of city gas plant. The acct
ylene generator can be purchased for
few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to

The roadmaster came along on a
railroad velocipede and stopped at the
town crossing. An old lady who had
been gazing in wonder at the engine
and cars asked some one what on

Significance OF Recent senefactions
TO Colleges.
After all, the principal use Of the
college is as a place whe.s the next
generation is to get right ideas of
what is worth while in life itself. The
mere facts which, to the ignorant,
seem the advantages Of education, are
of minor Importance. We hear much
in the periods of college commence.
ments of the necessities of the mod
ern university in the way Of enlarged
endowments and increased equipment.
Some of this talk is, Of course, rea.
sonable enough. 1t is addressed main
ly to the rich as demand for the
recognition by them of duty Of gen.
erosity, one which in our days has
had a most remarkable response. But
apparatus IS an impossible substitute
for ideals, and the best endowment
of college is the character of its
graduates. The $4,000 bequest, for
example, to his Alma Mater, which
the will of the late William H. Bald.
win contained, was small if consider.
ed as mere matter of money, but his
character and. the ideals of public
service which his life expressed form
part of that permanent endowment
which alone makes university great.
The memory of a railroad president
ready to sacrifice, If need be, his posi-
ton. rather than lose an opportunity
for usefulness on an unpaid committee
OF citizens banded together for i'm.
rortant civic service, is a rarer and
more precious contribution to the
fiber of university life than any mere
material bounty from ravenous fin
gers unclutched by hypocrisy or the
fear of death.-George w. Alger in

Beloved, thou hast been to me

Surrounded by a waveless sea
And bright meath heavens sunniest

Would be to one who. wandering
From where depends THE cold north sky
Looks out with hope the day will bring
The Southern seas tranquility
Beneath sky all dense and dark,
With radiance rarely falling through
The clouds that lowered DER my bark,
Did / my dreary way pursue; rs
The fairy isle is still afar.
~ Afar the skies with sunshine bIest:
But Hope will be my guiding star
And Love will aid me in the quest. Il
