Throughout the Republic. New York State Is DON'T
nant in large business affairs both national and
ternatonaI In scope. Men everywhere pay tribute
to this great arteriaI business world
New York State has TO IT'S admirable prestige
IN great affairs largely by reason OF the fact that
the world at large rates II TO be and sensible
community. free from erratic mental and moral
habits and trustworthy in its dealings. Vast mill
ions from all quarters flow into the channels of
trade in this state largely OF the fact that
the people Of this commonwealth have hitherto held
to stable lines Of conduct in affairs of government
The world knows New York as community In which
law is upheld and property rights are respected
The administration of Governor Hughes stands dis
tnctly and boldly to the front in harmony with
the ideals OF the people of the state He srivea
10 maintain the law, to preserve the constitution
and 10 raise the standard Of government So
derful have the means of communication become in
our country that every nook and OF the land
is fully familiar with the splendid record Of Gov
ernor Hughes IN this State Public sentiment every
where throughout the United States would be
shocked and outraged should majority Of the vot-
ers OF New York. at the behest OF organized gam
bling vote to strike down Governor Hughes and
paraIyze the forces which he has set in motion for
better government. To repudiate Governor Hughes
and the movement for which he stands would be TO
brand this erratic and unreliable common
wealth. 1t is a vital and material subject TO De

RADIUm TREATMENT IN GERMANY.

Consul Frank S. Hannah, OF Magdeburg fur
nishes the following information concerning new
German treatment OF diseases through distilled wa
ters charged with Tadium gas:
Recent experiments by medical men OF reputa-

gas emitted from radium possesses the same quail
ties the rad!uTn itself and is the principal heal
ing factor in the various mineral waters used in
the healing Of diseases This applies especially TO
skin diseases and rheumatism II has been found
that the various mineral waters lose the radium

q means has been devised for charging distilled
water with radtum gas through comparatively In
expensive apparatus placed in drugstores hospitals
etc This enables patients TO secure this healing

device and the rays permeate distilled water for

the physician. Such apparatus has been in

You may think this very silly question 10 ask
but It isn't II is a simple, dernonstrable fact

very few minutes.

fifty yards you have veered very ch 20 one side
You must not make any effort, OF course, TO keep
in the centre, but II you viii think OF something
and endeavor to walk naturally you cannot keep

The explanation OF this lies in the propensity OF
one foot walk faster than the other, one leg
takes a longer stride than the other causing one

You can try an experiment In this way by plac-

There is an obviously relevant criticism in this
extract from Gilbert's Patience" But IT. seems
churlish to indulge in even good tempered quarrel
with Nine Chaminade or her music. Critical per-
sons who think that evening of Beethoven's or

really does not address serious appeal TO the seri

gracious face, to watch her gracious manners and
TO hear her gracious music. all of which floats
agreeably in the atmosphere of the dra wing room
There is IN it no variety of manner mood, and

out much of their innocent musical lives Those
who saw her yesterday saw her under pretty cir
cumstanCes, and were charmed much by her
modest and graceful appearance and department as
they were by her equally modest and graceful
playing. which never extended beyond the modest
and graceful frame around her music. The voice
