Beats Radium for Cost.

If you object to paper money, but
wish to carry big values in small com
pass, you might do worse than lay In
a stock OF best lenses for microscopes
Weight for weight, gold Is not nearly
so valuable as glass in the form of pow
erful lenses, and an ordinary purse
filed with such lenses might easily rep.
resent a fortune. The record increase
in the value of the manufactured ar
tcle over the raw material Is probably
made by this variety of glass, which
multiplies itself 50,000OO0 times. The
front lens Of micro objective instru
ment costing about fl weighs no more
than about .0017 Of gram hence the
value of such lenses to the weight of
about two quarter pounds would be
100000. The cost Of making this
weight Of glass is ~ pence to pence,
and thus when worked up into the
shape Of lens the glass has increased
In value about 100000 tlmes.--Lon

The spirit Of cheerfulness is some
times the result Of happy tempera-
ment whose nerves have never been
disturbed by loss, sickness or calamity.
Sometimes it Is the abundance of youth
still finding surplus of vlgor after
the tolls Of the day. Sometimes 1t is
the expression Of character which from
the reserves OF its own nature and ex-
perience Is able to preserve cheerful
disposition under even the most dis
couraging circumstances and face life
always with hope and good cheer.
Such a character Is strength and a
defense not only to him who has 1t,
but to all his associates and to all who
feel his influence. They are the watch
towers Of humanity, whose lights shine
through the dark night of human st1-ug-
gle and whose word Is an inspiration
Of hope and encouragement.

81 notice that in all this talk and
discussion recently stirred up by Presi-
dent Roosevelt concerning the writer's
Of pseudo-nature stories there Is some
confusion as to the use of the words
'fallr' and faker'," said the man who
Is fond Of being exact. "One person
writes nature fakir' and another nat
ure faker,' as If fakir and faker were
interchangeable and meant the same
thing. Such is not the case. The word
fakir' Is Of Eastern origin, and was
originally applied to the Hindoo ascetic
or mendicant Then 1t was applied to
the people who make their living by
street entertainments, such as snake
charming, tumbling, Juggling, and 50
on. Since many OF these people were
not always honest in their dealings
with the public, gradually the word
came to be applied to the street hawk
ers and booth-keepers who are engaged
in quilting the public.
But a 'faker' Is simply man who
fakes, whether he Is telling a story,
writing an article, or manufacturing
piece Of goods. Hence In writing Of
the gentlemen who have been charged
with deviating from the truth In their
nature narratives the proper term to
use Is nature faker,' not fakir.'"--
