Iron and Steel Pipe.

One OF the largest pipe and fitting
manufacturers of this country gives
the following useful bit of information
to distinguish between iron and steel
pipe. Iron pipe is rough in appear
ance and the scale on It is heavy
whereas the scale on steel pipe is very
light and has the appearance of small
plisters or bubbles, underneath which
the surface is smooth and somewhat
white. Steel pipe seldom breaks
when fiattened, but II a fracture does
occur It will be noticed that the grain
is very fine. Iron pipe when subjected
to this test breaks easily and shows a
coarse fracture, due to the long fiber

HOW TO KEEP YOUNG.
German Scientist Declares Care Of
Heart Essential.

The art of keeping young. according
to Prof Goldschneider of Berlin, con-
sists in keeping sound the blood ves-
sells, for we are only as old as the
heart and the arteries. Long life is
best insured by early attention to the
heart. though care begun in old age
will often accomplish much. A great
danger lies in abnormal demands on
the organ. and little injuries accumu-
late, so that serious harm must come
from the abuse of alcohol and tobacco.
Of eating too much. of too great mus
cular effort. or even of mental over
work. Moderation in all things is re-
quired. Exercise should not be vio-
lent nor too little in amount. elastic
ity Of the blood vessels should be pro-
NOTED by frequent exposure Of the
skin to air and water and work, food
and sleep should be thoughtfully ad-
justed. Old people need constant
movement. with not too much sleep.

ways In Demand.
New professions pay we'll. in spite
of all that is said against them" said
a man of forty who had abandoned a
general law practice to take special
lists position in a technical training
school. I'VE don't hear SO much about
the overcrowding OF professions as
we used to- The technical training
schools scattered over the land teach
doctors, lawyers. engineers. architects
and editors to divide their work into
separate departments. Salaries tor
specialists drawn from all the old pro-
fessions range from $4,000 10 10000
n year. man who commands more
than the last.named figure must be
exceptionally clever in one line OF
work.
TT is never too late for man to
begin. I know New York physician
who thought he was doing very well
with $4,000 in the general run OF his
profession until he was so years old.
But he was fond of roses. AND read
everything that he could get hold OF
about their culture. the question OF
reducing the cost of existing varieties
and the secret of producing hew ones.
He gets $4,000 year now from
farm that sends the highest-priced
roses to New York. Boston and Phil
adelphia.
There is no end of variety OF pur.
suits for which a man can prepare
himself through technical educa'
tion. The telephone alone has opened
up vast field. Then there Is mining,
bridge building. electrical specialities
and chemistry. The main thing Is to
screw up courage to get out OF the
rut."

"The law follows closely the re
port of commission appointed by
the president two years ago to make
recommendations regarding changes
needed in the laws ON nsturslizs-

"The work Of the last session Of
congress was of greater moment in
the laws that were passed than any
session since the war period and the
more important of the measures like
the railroad rate bill, the pure food
billand the quarantine bill, were re-
publican measures. By that 1 mean
they carried out the principles OF
the party and they served to keep
the distinction very clear between
the two parties. They carried out
the idea of federal control. The
state rights men were alarmed, but
needlessly, l believe. Too great
credit cannot be given the President
Roosevelt for what was done. He
had, and we all felt that he had the

THE GOVERNOR A PHILOSOPHER

Gov. Folk of Missouri delivered
a strong and helpful address to
the retail merchants of Jefferson
City the other day in the course of
which he said: "No merchant
can succeed without advertising
in one way or another. Patronize
your town papers, build them up,
and they will build the town up,
and build up increased trade and
greater opportunities. Do not be
afraid that business is going to be
hurt by the recent exposures of
wrong doing in the commercial
world. No man who is doing an
honest business can be injured by
the light. All business will be
better for the cleansing process it
is going through and for the stamp
ing out of evil"
