THIS MORNING AS A
RESULT OF TUBERCULOSIS

4 CHEMICAL FURY.
Fluorine IL q Rabid Gas That Nothing
Can Resist.

FIuorins is q Rabid Gas That Nothing
Can Resist.
The fury of the chemical world IL
the element fluorine, although, strange
~ enough, 1t exists peacefully In com.
pany with calcium in f1uorspar and
also in few other compounds.
Although this element was known
and named good while ago. it lor:
resisted the efforts of chemists to iso-
late it-that is. prepare it in Il pure
state, unmixed chemically with other
substances-for the instant the com
pound containing 1t was torn apart
the free fluorine attacked and combined
with whatever substance composed the
vessel containing it. 1t was finally
isolated by the great French chemist
iIoissan.
Fluorine is rabid gas that nothing
can resist. 1t combines with all met
ais, explosively with some, or if they
are already combined with some other
nonmetallic element it mercilessly
tears them away from it and takes
them to itself.
In uniting with sodium, potassium.
calcium, magnesium and aluminium
the metals become heated, even to red
ness, by the fervor of it's embrace.
Iron filings slightly warm burst into
brilliant scintillations when exposed to
it. Manganese does the same. Even
the noble metals, which at melting
heat proudly resist the destinations of
oxygen, succumb to this chemical siren
al moderate temperatures.
Glass is devoured at once and water
ceases to be water by contact with this
gas, which. combined with its hydro
gen, at the same moment forms the
acri1. glass dissolving hydrofuoric acid
and Iiberates ozone.
Even hydrofuoric acid eats into and
destroys every known substance eZ-
cept platinum and lead.-Exchange

A Substitute for conerete.

A composition resembling concrete.

France and known as lime beton. is
described as being more generally
used than concrete. It is a cheaper
composition than cement beton or O m
crete, easier to work, and If the initial
load be not too great 1t is for nearly
every purpose just as good. A good
lime b@ton can be obtained by mixing
mortar Nand stones, gravel, or cinders,

Laughter Makes Beauty.

The art of laughter should surely
be cultivated; in fact, all and every
thing that leads to Joy. The wish to
be happy, the love of gladness and
beauty is a thing to be desired; con-
sequently 1t is worth a little cultiva-
ton. Play is as essential a factor in
mems lives as work. Philosophers tell
us that no man lives his own life until
he plays. Work comes from the ex.
igencies of life, from the "musts" Of
the world, which often push men along
different paths to those they would
choose to travel by from inclination
or capacity. Play is, however, his rec
reation, and here at his leisure time
comes out his whole soul; his power
Of and choice of play, his greater or
lesser necessity of 1t, to recuperate
mind and body from the strain Of
daily work. Laughter Is a gift that
makes man akin to the gods, that wax
ems some of the best and brightest of
his nature.

CHANGE IN SCHOOL METHODS.
Consolidated Temples Of Learning 10
Now the Order.

-
"The old country schoolhouse Of not
SO long ago will soon be a relic Of the
past" said James Tighe Of Altoona,
Pa, according to the Washington Post.
although one travelling through the
country sees many of these old fash
Toned structures, he does not realize
that they are rapidly being deserted
and that a consolidated schoolhouse
will be met with farther up the road.
These new buildings are graded, and
many have several high school
courses, so that one teacher now
teaches only m class, whereas in
the old days the pedagogue taught
everything from the alphabet to Latin.
OF course, the consolidated school
house is not so convenient to all the
children, as they have to go a greater
distance, but all of them ride to school
nowadays. The consolidated school
Is much cheaper to the community,
and what the farmer ave in taxes he
puts in sleighs and wagons, SO that
his children may ride. Pupils can
also remain at their home school
much longer than they formerly
could, and this also is a great saving.
We may expect great results from
this change, for the farmers with their
poor schools have turned out some
wonderful men, and they should do
ever better under the new condi-
tons.

For sheer deviltry and insane feroc-
tty the boar stands pre-eminent and
for courage he has no equal among
animals. A wild boar charging has
been known to bring an elephant down
on its knees, and one well anthem
ticated fight is recorded between a
boar and a full grown tiger in which
the boar more than held its own.
Tigers have the greatest respect for
wild boars and treat them according
ly. In matter of speed the horse has
not yet been foaled which can catch
a boar in Its first burst. I have seen
a man on a thoroughbred Arab try to
cut out a boar in breaking back to
cover, and the boar literally walked
around characterization.

WASHINGTON LETTER
MATTERS OF GENERAL INTER-
EST FROM THE CAPITOL

If the critics of President Roose-
welt expected to find anything
savsring of disloyalty to the Pres
hdent and his pelioies In the speech
which Secretary Taft delivered at
Boston, this week, they must have
been sorely disappointed. The
news was sent out from Washing
ton that Mr.. Taft's speech has not
been read by the President be-
fore delivery and some there were
who, apparently expected that
because Mr.. Roosevelt had not
read the Secretary's remarks be-
foIehand he would show signs of
weakening in his loyalty to the
Roosevelt policies. OF course
such expectations wer based on
ignorance Of the man and the
part he played in shaping the
policies of the administration, for
when Judge Taft defends the
Roosevelt policies he defends his
own policies, policies which have
been shaped at the cabinet table
or in White House conference and
these conferences have always in
oluded Secretaries Taft and Root,
and sometimes the Attorney Gem
eral or Secretary Garfield.

Calling Evans a Coward

Calling Evans a Coward
Admiral Evans has got himself In
Q los of trouble. Because he sua-
gested that q pilot from the army
yather than one from the navy
guide his ships through the Mag
elan straits he has been called q
coward. Think of that, will you!
This oommander-"Fighting Bob"
on his way to show the Japan
csc that he could whip 'em as cas-
lily as saying "Scat!" accused of
90 wardice! Dear, dear, what is
the world coming to?
In shipping circles the Magellan
straits are considered dangerous
only to small sailing craft and not
to those with rudders controlled
by steam. The route is preferred
by all big ships going from ocean
to ocean, and it has been q half
century since a disaster has been
recorded in this water path. The
straits, founded by Magellan and
of which Balboa told to early ex-
plorers, are $40 miles long and
from two and one-balf to twenty
miles in width. Here sailed Drake
on his great voyage around the
world.
The fleet will pass through in
midsummer. Then there will be
no fog and the weather at it's best.
The waters are deep, and while
the currents are sometimes severe
they have yet to drive a modern
ship upon the rocks. There are no
reefs or shoals and mariners fear
the course no more than il they
were in midocsan. Because of
the many naval surveys, both by
Chile and Great Britain, the wat
ers are better known than any
other south of the equator.
Still Admiral Evans is afraid,
and he is probably going to the
army for a pilot. That being so,
his naval friends r more or less
justified in their criticisms of him.
Such action reflects poorly upon
the Annapolis school, by naval
officers, said to be the greatest in
the world.
But to call Evans q coward

Secretary Taft's speech is oon-
strued by the politicians in Wash
ington to be a sort of a defy to all
the other presidential, or would be
presidential candidates and es-
peoially to Senator Foraker aud
MIR. Bryan. Mr.. Taft declares
with emphasis that opposition to
Federal control Of railroads would
Inevitably lead to government
ownership which he condemned
doubtless with the "Peerless Lead,
err, in mind, and he replied in
effect to Mr.. Foraker when he
said that those who we're not
shouting loudest that the rate bill
was responsible for the panic were
those who a few months ago had
been proclaiming that the rate
bill vas a humbug and a fraud,
both of which inconsistent asser-
tions have been repeated with
tiresome iteration by the senior
Senator from Ohio.
