The MOdesty of Women

Naturally makes them shrink from the
indicate questions, the obnoxious OK
aminations, and unpleasant local treat
ments, which some physicians consider
essential in the treatment Of diseases Of
women. Yet, If help can be had, IL is
better TO submit 10 this ordeal than let
the disease grow and spread. The trouble
Is that so often the woman undergOes all

Boiler Preservative,

A new Spanish composition for the
preservation OF steam boilers has just
been placed on the market at Bar
celona, which, as Consul General
Ridgely says, appears to be an i'm
provement on all previous inventions
1t is claimed that by adding a GER

which is an odorless and colorless
liquid-to the tanks from which the
boilers are fed, all impurities in the
water, and all matter which might
adhere to the sides OF the boiler are
precipitated, leaving the water in.

Thus, not only is the life and eff.
cheney of the boiler increased, but
there is great economy in fuel.

Suns Heat.

Popularity speaking, the heat of the
sun is such that the total annual out
put of all the earth's coal mines would
serve to keep up the solar radiation
for only one-fortymillionth part of a
second. If the earth was a solid mass
of coal and could be supplied to the
solar furnace it would last just SO
hours. The same difficulty attends
the attempt to mentally realize the
amount Of the solar heat that is APP
propriated by our planet. Science has
demonstrated that the amount of the
suns heat caught by the earth is only
the 2,25Omillionth part. In other
words, the heat of the sun is sufi-
cient to warm up 2,250,00O 900 worlds
the size of the one we are living in
New York American.

"No Gulf OF Mute Space"

The thousand soft voices of the
earth have truly found their way to
me-the small rustic in tufts of grass,
the silky swish Of leaves, the buzz of
insects, the hum Of bees in blossoms
! have plucked, the flutter Of birds
wings after his bath, and the slender
ripping vibration Of water running
over pebbles. Once having been felt,
these loved voices rustic, buzz, hum,
hutter and ripple in my thought for
ever, an undying part of happy mem
ories.-From Helen Keller's Sense
and Sensibility" in Century.

How Lord Kelvin Saved His Neck.

The late Lord Kelvin, when he was
deep in some abstract problem, was
very absent-minded and unpunctual.
So much So that his parrot used al
ways to cry out: Late again! Late
again." when the scientist came in
TO his meals. He never gave himself
time to catch trains, and for many
years persisted in jumping into
trains while they were in motion-to
the great risk OF his limbs. His
friends declared that the ice acct

in disguise, for il saved his neck
