the country is exceeding rich, and
their systematic developments must
come some day, despite our vast dis
tanees. Meanwhile, there is crying
need for strengthening of the good
roads campaign, for a propaganda for
good hotels and inns, and for more
scenic preservation societies. The
American business man will finally
wake up to the money in the tourist
trathc, and then we, too, shall have
tourist chambers of commerce. The
automobile should prove a valuable
factor in this movement, for coed
roads are essential to comfort in mo-
toring. But for all the millions in
vested in the business and in cars we
have not yet developed automobile

Heart Five Times Too Big.

The largest human heart ever found
was discovered March 30 when an
autopsy was performed on the body
of Bainbrldge o. Stafford. who died
in the Tombs prison, New York. The
organ weighed pounds and 2 ounces,
the normal weight of human heart
being u to IA ounces.
Stafford was arrested on charge of
perjury, preferred by Brice i Co., of
Baltimore, who alleged the conversion
of stock valued at $1,000. His death
was caused by combination of labor
pneumonia. cardiac hypertrophy and
chronic nephIitis. The left lung was
almost entirely shriveled up, the
heart occupying nearly all the space
which the lung should have had. The
heart will be placed in the museum
of the college of physicians and sur
geons.

or positively charged PARTICLES, shot
out by radium emanation at a certain
stage of disintegration. From this
he inferred that the mass of each
particle was comparable with twice
that of an atom of hydrogen; conse-
quently that the projected PARTICLES
we're material, and if single known
substance, must be either hydrogen
say and Soddy then examined the
spectrum of some of the emanation
enclosed in vacuum tube. Helium
was not at first detected, as it would
have been if it had been an ingred
lent in mixture, but it appeared in
a day or two at about the rate requir-
ed by the disintegration hypothesis.
1t has been observed further that
Iadium loses much activity when its
emanation is removed, gradually re-
gaining it as fresh emanation is re-
moved, gradually regaining it as fresh
emanation is formed. Other proof
that atoms are not changeless units is
more roundabout, but is voluminous,
varied and ,weighty.

The value of vanadium-formerly

Rest is the great restorer. We tire
our muscles by exercise and then rest
to restore them; yet great many OF
US do not stop to think how little
rest we give to our stomachs. As a
usual thing no part of our bodies is
so generally over worked as ouI diges-
tive organs. A tired and overworked
stomach will give signs of distress to
which we pay no heed until at last
dyspepsia takes hold. Indigestion Is
just a warning, and if we heed the
warming we can easily avoid further
consequences. Kodol is most thor
ough stomach relief. 1t dIgests what

as regularly as the best telescope ever
made, and the suns rays are thus re-
flected on a central point where the
boiler of small engine is located.
Within an hour after sunrise the
heat Of the sun raises the temper ature
OF the water to the boiling point and
thus creates steam, and the pumping
machinery begins its days work and
keeps it up until sundown.
The power of the sun for heating
has only been family appreciated by
scientists In the past, but the pre-
dlction is made now that if all the
coal should give out we would soon
be able to run much of our machinery
from the power of the sun. With 800
mirrors properly arranged to focus
the rays upon one point, tempera-
ture of more than 1000 degrees has
been obtained. This almost equals
one fifth the highest temperature re
corded by the electric furnace, which
is considered today the most power
full heating apparatus ever discovered.
AS there is no limit to the number
of mirrors that may be employed,
and as the intensity of the heat in
creases in proportion to the numb ber
of rays reflected by the mirrors, it is
conceivable that temperature may
be obtained in time that Will surpass

STREETS SHALL BE LIGHTED.
Police Ordered to Arrest Those Who
Tamper With LAMPS.

Members of the police department were
instructed last night to make arrests in
cases of persons found tampering with the
street lamps. The Commissioners 1t is de-
clared are determined that the streets of
the city and the roads In the county shall
be lighted, and that offenders against the
laws shall be punished. communication
upon the subject was received from the
Commissioners by Major Sylvester and the
latter sent copy of it to the several pre-
cincts for the guidance of the police.
The communication reads:
The Commissioners direct me to request
that you will cause the arrest of any per-
son found doing any work in connection
with the gas street lamps, who cannot show
a numbered badge having the name of the
American Street Lighting Company on it.
or who are not officials of the District of
Columbia.
The electrical engineer advises the Com
missioners that he Is informed by the su-
perintendent of the American Street Light
ing Company that all of the lamp lighters
inspectors and others connected with tina +
company have lettered and numbered
badges. This is also true Of the inspectors
of the electrical department. So that any
one discovered by the police climbing a
lamp post, either in the day time or at
night, or In any way interfering with the
street lighting system, who cannot show
his badge of authority, should be arrested
ana prosecuted under the police regula-
tons
