atmosphere strongly luminous at
times, and we can never be sure that
this light is absent.
While cancer mortality is increas.
ing still in England and Wales, it is
at diminishing rate. In the five
years ending with 1905, the death rate
for both sexes showed an increase of
eight per cent, which was about half
as great as the increase for the five
years ending with 1890. The deaths
in 1904 we're 741 per 1000, 600 among
males of all ages, and 1006 among
females. In nearly all comparable
cases the rate is greater among
females. A remarkable exception is
cancer of the mouth, for in the four
years ending with 1904 this caused
the death of 7246 males and only 1867
females. Whether this is an effect OF
nicotine poisoning remains to be
shown.
In new method, the velocity Of
stream is determined chemically. a
certain quantity of brine is added to
the water, and samples afterward
taken further down are carefully

Why He Was Not a Success.

He became saturated with other
mems thoughts.
He depended too much on books.
He thought his education was COM
plete when he left college.
lie regarded his diploma as an in
surance policy against failure.
His mind was clogged with theories
and impractical facts.
He mistook stuffed memory for
an education, knowledge for power,
and scholarship for mastership.
. He knew languages and sciences, but
was ignorant Of human nature.
He knew Latin and Greek, but could
not make out bill of goods or bill
of sale.
He was we'll posted in political
economy, but could not write a decent
business letter.
His four years in the world of
books lett him permanently out of
joint with the world of practical
affairs.
The stamina of the vigorous, in
dependent mind he had brought from
the farm was lost in academic re-
tinements.
He thought that his four years.
college course had placed him i'm
measurably above those who had not
had that advantage.
He had never assimilated what he
learned, and was crippled ~ mental
dyspepsia.
The habit of discriminating min
utely, weighing. balancing and con-
sidering all sides of a subject destroy
ed his power of prompt decision.
He thought that the world would
be at his feet when he left college,
and made no effort to win its favor.
He could not digest his kno Wedge.
He knew enough, but could not
manage 1t effectively could net
transmute his knowledge INTO practi-
cal power. s. Marden in Success

1t the southern California hospital
is. some day, to reach the 2COO mark
it must, meantime, secure available
farming land plain farming for
chronic cases which can be afforded a
large measure of personal liberty.
The present structure should be used
for housing chronic patients who can
not be allowed much liberty. And
there should be group of GONZALES
cent cottages somewhere blythe sea.
Meantime, let those of US who can
do so consistently never cease to
thank God that we are in peaceful
possession of our own minds, and
show our thanktulness by throwing
our influence in favor of doing all
things possible for ameIiorating the
conditions and healing the hurts of
those not in condition to join US
in so returning our thanks.

equipment for baths of all kinds,
massage, etc. 1t is estimated that
the cottages will each cost SO, 600
furnished, sufficient for 80 patients
each, and the hydropathy building
will likewise cost $1,000 complete.
Without these there will be COM
paratively little done In the way of
healing hurt minds and as each
chronic insane person costs the state
from $1,000 to $1,000 during his
hospital life it pays UNNECESSARILY
we'll to cure when cures can be effect
ed.
All except the newest roofs at
Patton leak like so many sieves when
ever hard rains come. 1t Will cost
SIG, 0O0 to re-roof the main buildings
and it should be done.
DIR. Williamson wants a new horse
harm, partly for its own sake and
partly for the reason that the present
location of the ramshackle horse barn
is coveted for cottages, This will
cost $500.
The products of the dairy are a
most important, if not main eIe
ment in the dietary of hospital.
The more milk the patients can have
the better, provided it be clean and
free from unwholesome germs. DR..
Williamson wants the state to set the
people of Southern California an
example of septic dairying at cost
of 81, 1000. l second the motion,
although the appropriation may have
to stand little scaling down.
The convalescent cottage for men,
above referred to, and perhaps one of
the others, can be built out of the
contingent fund, although the pro-
lection of the ranch from injurious
wash is pressing necessity and
should not be put off.
Care of the Tnberclose.
Plans have already been made for ten
cottages of semI-cheap construction,
for housing tuberclose and untidy de-
mented persons. Each cottage will
house sixteen patients, will be easily
cleaned, made of wood, Alpine
plaster and metal lath. 1t is proposed
to build three of them at once at an
estimated cost complete of SO, 941. 70
and the others as needed. This will
come out of the contingent fund of
which there is an accumulation of
about $50, GOO.
Some Anticipations.
Inasmuch as the mutations and
vicissitudes of politics make it
likely that, in making my final rounds
of state institutions, | am paying
parting calls, l can the more freely
comment on things seen and plans
entertained. | think that the state
should stick Its peg at the 1000 notch
for the patient population of each of
its five hospitals and reach that reg
in all of them before establishing any
more. Multiplying arrangements

The CrawGsh's Tail.

The tail of Il crawfish serves that an
lmal as an oar. By peculiar jerk OF
the tail the animal can retire from a
dangerous object with almost incredi-
bic swiftness. The tail is much more
effective in moving the animal back
ward than forward, singular instance
OF adaptation to its situation, for by
means of its tail it can withdraw into
its hole with such swiftness as in an
instant to place it out of danger.

PROPOSED FOR PARK.
PURCHASE OF GROUND BETwEEN
CAPITOL AND UNION STATION. !,
Proposition Urged by Representatives
Rodenberg Extensively Favor
ed in Congress.

There appears to be a decided sentiment
In Congress for the purchase by the gov
eminent soon as possible of the two.
blocks OF ground between the Capitol and
the new union station, for preservation as
a park. Representative Rodenberg OF MI
nois. who has been very much interested
In seeing the government purchase the
land for this purpose, will go before tho.
House committee on public buildings and
grounds Friday to urge the proposition.
and bill Will be Immediately introduced
providing for condemnation proceedings.
Mr.. Rodenberg has had some one look over
the ground to make an estimate Of prop
erty values. and believes that the tract
which consists of one whole block. two
thirds OF another and about one-third OF
$4,000
But, OF course. I realize" said Mr.. Ro-
denberg TO Star reporter today that
there Is sometimes a vast difference be-
tween an appraised valuation and the ac-
tuai purchase price. especially under this
system OF condemnation
Il certainly believe, however. that this
ground should be purchased by the govern
ment as soon as possible. The ground will
never be any cheaper than IL is now, ana
IN all probability the price will rapidly
advance. II the government does not step
I'm and buy this LAID this beautiful section
viii be permanently dishgured Boarding
houses and hotels OF the class that are
usually found around railroad station will
probably be erected on the tract between
the Capitol and the union station"
Mr.. Rodenberg added that he had talked
ings and grounds committee. and that all
of them were very favorable to the propo-
sition. Many other members of the House
have expressed themselves the same way.
