ALL METALS HAVE LIFE.
AS Expert Puts 1t, Statement Is Be
 yond Argument

Metals have life" said a metallur- gist firmly. Not much life, but a lit tie. As plants lives are to ours. so are metals lives to plants.
 Heres the proof
 You know how strip of muscle will contract under the electric cur rent, and how, finally. it grows tired and contracts no longer? We'll. with strip of platinum it is the same thing. The platinum, too, grows tired and refuses to contract.
 And metals can be stimulated. de- pressed, poisoned Thus:
 Platinum wire, immersed in water. gives off an electric current that may easily be measured If you put bicar- bonate of soda in the water, the stim- ulated wire gives off weaker cur rent. Put in bromide of potassium and the depressed wire gives of a weaker current. Finally put in oxalic acid, and the poisoned wire gives of no current at all. It will never again give off any current. It is dead.
 Now, l leave it to you. If you can tire a metal, depress it, exhilarste it., and finally administer to it fatal dose of poison, have you not a right to say that the metal has life?"

AS CHINESE SEE SEVEN AGES.
Oriental Philosopher Pictures tho
 Course of the Life of Man.

A French officer, Louis de Chantilly, tells in Paris Gil Bias of his discovery in Buddhist convent in the noun tains of Tonkin of dusty manuscript containing the Chinese version of the seven ages of man.
 At ten years old," says the writer, whose name has long been forgotten, the boy has heart and brain as soft as the tender shoots of young bamboo. At 20 he is like a green banana; he is just beginning to ripen in warm rays of common sense
 Thirty years sees him developed into a buffalo. He is strong and lusty, full of bodily and mental vigor. This is the true age of love; the age for him to marry at
 At 40 years, the prosperous man has grown to be a mandarin and wears a coral button. But it would be truly indiscreet to confde to him at this early age any functions calling for judicial intelligence or calm.
 When he reaches 50 years, how ever, although he has grown stout and fieshy, he is fit to hold any municipal or state office; he can administer city or a province or perform any official duty.
 But at 50 years he is old. Handi- crafts and all active bodily activities are beyond him. He gives his depend ents and clients advice. That is all he Is fit for.
 At 70 he is just dry rice straw. He has only one care; to husband the breath of life that is left to him. to preserve it, even by artificial means. His sons must assume the care of his estate and the performance of his duties''

Schemed for His Taffy.

When Andrew Carnegie was a young man, he was inordinately fond of taffy. And when we learn the scheme he adopted to keep himself supplied. it is easy to understand why to-day he is able to build li- braries.
 Andy suggested to the other clerks in the office in which he was employed that they organize a club for mutual improvement. One of the rules pro- vided that any member guilty of us ing an improper or slangy word or violating any of the numerous regula. tions laid down for gentlemanly con duct, should pay fine of one cent for each offense. Tobacco was not al. lowed in the office. so under the skill. ful wire-pulling of Carnegie. 1t was voted that the fund should be used for the purchase of taffy. Carnegie was elected treasurer and disburser of the fund, and, as he never had to pay fines for misconduct, his taffy cost nothing.

"0ur Country Ills of Thee. "

Some of us have lived here ir Prescottover 30 years. We have seen her grow from a struggling little village into thriving town of nearly 5000 people, with beau i tiful homes. electric lights, water works, telephones, a cool, beau tiful park and many other com forts and convenienceS. We have given 30 of the best years of our life to her. We love her. we love her good name. We have obeyed her laws and contributed to her upbuilding. She and the county around have been good to us; supplying us with every neces sity and giving us pleasant en vironments. We are proud to claim her as our home, and have a strong faith in her future. We want her to stand out fair and clean before the world, letting her light shine clear and unsulli- ed.
 Breathes there man with soul so dead who never to him. self hath said: This is my own, my native land"
 What shall we do when a few parasites attach themselves to her, and calling themselves good citizens, tarnish her good name, break her just laws. and establish such conditions in her midst, that tears down the moral jiber of her people.
 No wonder she shrouds her self in the dust.
 Let us who love our home come to her help. Let us redeem our beautiful town from even the shadow of reproach.
 Then shall she raise her proud head, look the world in the face. and supported by her loyal sons, her brave and true officiers, who hold her good name above the price of a drink, she will welcome her guests and give them the as surance of a safe and pleasant abode.
