The expression was the more notable be.
cause he had once fancied that an atom
might have a construction and an in
ternal motion like those of ring of
smoke elected from locomotive smoke
stack.
In the recent investigations in regard
to radium and radio activity, Lord Kel
win took deep and lively interest, while
maintaining consistently conservative
stand. When Professor Soddy reported
and Sir William Ramsey by later expert
ments confirmed, the apparent transfor-
nation of a gaseous emanatlon of helium
into radium, Lord Kelvin would not as
sent to the theory, based upon these ex
periments, that one element could be
evolved from another He also refused
to accept the theory, lately advanced,
that the heat of the sun on the earth is
due to radium, asserting that nothing so
far brought forward was sufficient to
controvert the older theory that the heat
of those bodies was due to gravitation.
A department of work which appeals
less strongly to the popular mind than to
| trained scientists is Professor Thomson's
development of the relation which exists
between heat and mechanical power.
The period that lay between 1910 and
| 1850 may be said to have marked the
dawn of definite ideas on the subject,
but it also witnessed lively conflict be-
tween the views of Joule and Carnot.
| Thomsons own study of the matter en-
abled him to reconcile these doctrines,
and he co-operated with Joule in expert
ments which aided in dspelling the un.
certainty. These related to thermal eff
fects in fluids. and their results were
communicated to the Royal Society in
1862 In one of his early papers Pro-
fessor Thomson gave an instructive table
of the efficiencies Of the best steam en-.
gines and boilers of that day, comparing
the actual duty performed with that
hich theory required. AS early as
1S4e he published an article on an abso
lutte thermometric scale, and in 1854 he
modified his proposition. Two long ar
ticles from his pen in the Encyclopedia;
Britannica have been republished undo
the title, ION Heat and Electricity" Ii
: 1867 the first volume of "A Treatise OF
Natural Philosophy" the joint work OF
himself and Professor Taft, appeared
and second edition was issued in 1879
This work in which the effort was mad
= to base a complete theoretical analyst
l upon the doctrine of the conservation o
e energy, was never carried beyond tn
division of mechanics, but 1t contain
D.. much material of the highest value.

e kins University in 1884,
|. Next after his inheritance of inteleC
and passion for the Investigations c
natural phenomena, perhaps Lord Ke
wins most helpful quality was his fin
mastery of mathematics. This not onl

Il was sick, rundown and finally

The reason Vinol is SO successful in
such cases is because it contains tonic

A cHILDLESS FUTURE.

During the period from 1860
to 1900 the proportion of children
to 1000 women of child bearing
age decreased in the United
States by 152, or an average of
about 80 to each decade. If we
assume that the change will con-
tinue unchecked for century in
the direction which it has been
during the last 40 years, there
will be no children left.
This startling statement came
out in the lecture on birth and
birthrate delivered by Professor
Walter F. Wilcox in the course on
sanitation in Goodwin Smith Hos
pital in Ithica, N. Y. last week.
1T is one of the main duties of
statistics to point out the whirl-
pools in the stream along which
society is going" said Professor
Wilcox, before the current be-
comes irresistible, and thus to
arouse a desire to change the
course.
"The true reason for the fall in
the blrthrate is that in modern
times, mainly within the last half
century, births and birthrate
have come under the control of
human will and choice in a sense
and to a degree never before
true.
"Our leading American author
ity, DR.. John Shaw Billings, put
it as follows
'"The most important factor in
the past in the change is the de-
liberate and voluntary avoidance
or prevention on the part of a
steadily increasing number of
married people who prefer to
have but few children. Before
this change began the birth of
child in the vast majority of cases
was not an indication of a delib-
crate preference for that result
on the part of both or either Of
the parents.
"There is not single one
among the experts who denies
that this is the great underlying
cause of the modern decline in
the birthrate of all civilized COM
munities.
Professor Wilcox also gave sta
tistics to show that marriage is
less common among college grad
yates of both sexes than it is in
the average of the entire popu-
lation.
The figures regarding the birth
rate among college graduates
show that the highly educated
part of the American people not
only does not increase the popu-
lation at all, but, on the contrary,
fails to reproduce itself,
