1t Sometimes Springs to Aid a Sister
in Distress.
1t was an English poet and wom-
an, who declared that
all our male chivalry HIS persisted out,
But women are knights-errant 20 the last.
Things are hardly as bad as that
yet in America; but there are certainly
occasions when, man failing in lis
duty, woman herself acts the role of
chivalry to woman.
One such occurred recently in a
crowded car, in which a number of
women chung swaying to straps. while
an equal number of men, comfortably
seated, screened themselves behind
newspapers.
A bright-eyed little lady with early
graying hair, who had secured seat
cast glances of indignant sympathy
upon the unfortunate ''strap-hangers'
Of her own sex, and at last, when a
slender and pale young mother, carry
ing a heavy baby, entered, and not a
man stirred, rose impetuously ard
offered her place.

but taking step forward then she

senger, following her gaze, perceived
hat a large. dorid person in befurred
purple gown had lowered herself unin-
vited into the vacated seat. 1t was toe
much.
Il beg your pardon" said the little
lady, a trifie holly, but I offered my
seat to this young woman with the
baby"
Law. did your" responded the pur.
pie person, TRANQUILITY. THAT was reel
kind of you. never dreamed but you
was goin' to quit the car. Well, now
honest, that young woman can stand
up lots better'n l can. She don't weigh
200 pounds, and 1 do. Just you look
at the pair of us! And my arms are
so short they're most torn out of the
sockets every start-up. But there, ]
never was one to be stuffy about my
rights, so s'pose we compromise. She
can stand up, and I'll keep my sitting
but I'll hold the baby for her."
The compromise was unnecessary
Everybody was smiling, the mer
sheepishly, and in moment not only
the mother and child and the chivalrit
little lady had found seats, but so had
every other woman in the car.

foot to just such degree as it Is
forced from its normal position. Flat
foot Is frequently seen In children, as
result of effort made to have them
toe out gracefully, says an authority.
Toeing in is often due to the uncon-
scious effort to lessen the strain on the
arch Of the foot, produced by badly
formed shoes. Few children will toe in
If they wear properly shaped shoes.
The exceptions are those with weak
foot arches. for whom the shoes should
be made with soles thicker on the inner
than on the outer edge. The weight Is
thus shifted to the outer edge Of the
foot and the strain on the arch of the
foot relieved. This makes toeing ont

"a GROW GOLD LIKE POTATOES"

C81xIOEmIom OA8I"B 10 AatG OonA
Process All Men Have Sought.
When Basil valentia. in the Middle
Ages, published 1.-The Triumphal Ca
reer of Anthony" most Of the then
known world thought he had dlscov-
cred way for making gold, but his
claims were false. From a different
standpoint, here in California to-day,
a similar claim is made.
In the shadow of the statue of
Marshall, the discoverer CT gold in
California, a Sacramento assayer, ].
Addison Marshall by name, has work
ed for years on the fascinating prob
lem Of the ARTIFICIAL production or
growth" Of gold. He thinks he has
solved the problem on plain, scientific
lines. He contends that he can read
lily demonstrate the artificial growth of
gold from the eliminated crystal, just
as the potato develops from the cell;
that he can produce gold from silver
and iron with the incidental produc-
ton of mercury and copper.
Marshall, who was In the city to-
day. says the San Francisco Examin-
err, claims to be able to produce in
dubitable proof that gold and silver
can be grown from the base minerals
and earths in the same way that vege-
tables are grown, save that metals
grow by the formation of that little
understood object, the crystal, instead
of by the building UP of cells.
He calls his new discovery the dy-
nolectric system. In his opinion, it
will cause a revolution in gold get
ting. 1t is a system Of combining the
forces of heat, electricity and chemi-
cal action thereby the precious met
ais are obtained In paying quantities
from sources never before suspected.
1t involves the analysis and applica-
ton Of the same laws of nature which
placed the precious metals In the
earth's crust. In giving an outline of
his experiments, Mr.. Marshall said:
I'm a very early experiment, which
was strictly chemical. / found gold
and silver appear in the earthly matter
upon which / was experimenting,
which could not be found or accounted
for by accepted methods; that is to
say, the fire assay and the chemical
analysts. With these metals also APP
peared certain form of red iron
which amalgamated with mercury.
which ordinary iron does not do. I
learned later that this was iron In a
process of change to the precious met
ais
"This may be startling PROPOSE
ton. but is 1t not supported by analo-
gy In every other department of ma
ture? What Is there in the animal or
vegetable world which has not
grown Science has stopped short at
chemical element and said it could
go no further; but would not analogy
indicate that even elements have
grown from simple matter? Be that
as It may, 1t is easily demonstrated
by the dynolectric that the molecules
of gold or silver can be grown the
same as horses or potatoes grow
save that it is by the production OF
that unexplained organization, the
crystal, while animals and vegetables
grow by the addition of cells. This
is why the results Of the earths and
ores treated by dynolectric show an in
crease In the yield for thirty, sixty
and sometimes even ninety days after
the treatment and until the chemicals
or minerals In the ores are exhausted"

If you wish to marry 1t Is unwise to
be a widow. That is the curious con-
clusion that emerges from the last re-
port of the registrar general. In 1870
81 Ito widows In 1000 found hus-
bands. In 1904 there were but 12l5 in
1000 who again attempted the mar
riage state. Widowers, too, show an
increasing tendency to be content with
their lot In 1870 So $40 widowers out
of 1000 took second wives. In 1904
there were but poor 3S per 1000

some bearing on what the registrar

Girls whose hands are not yet fully

speaking. girls up to 1S-should not
wear rings Many taper finger has
had its shape spoiled by ring which
became so gradually too tight that the
yearer did not notice it until the. mis-
chief was done. Pianists or persons who
play any instrument seldom wear rings.
They think that the weight of the rings
lessons the muscular strength of the

rings, then let her at least take them
off each night and rub moment the
part of the finger that has been covered

CHAPTER xxIII.

Maurice Frere found his favorable
expectations of Sydney fully realized.
His notable escape from death at Mac
quarie Harbor, his alliance with the
daughter of so respected cslonist as
Major Vickers, and his reputation as a
convict disciplinarian, rendered him
man of note. He received a vacant
magistracy, and became even more not
ed for hardness of heart and artfulness
of prison knowledge than before. The
convict population spoke of him as shat
-Frere," and registered vows of ven
geance against him, which he laughed
In his bluffness-to scorn.
One of the first things this useful
officer did upon his arrival in Sydney
was to inquire for Sarah Purfoy. To
his establishment, he discovered that she
was the proprietor Of large export ware
houses in Pitt street, owned a neat cot
tage on one of the points of land which
jutted into the bay, and was reputed
to possess banking account of no In
considerable magnitude. He In vain
applied his brains to solve this mystery.
She had not been rich when she left
Van Diemen's land-at least, so she had
assured him, and appearances bore out
her assurance. How had she accumulat-
ed this sudden wealth? Above all, why
had she thus invested it? He made in-
qulries at the banks, but was snubbed
