SAYS PLANTS HAVE SENSES
Sir George Howard Darwin nresid

Sir George Howard Darwin, president of the
Worlds Association of Science has astonished
the scientific and lay worlds by his positive dec

can see, think and remember. The proofs he
produces are such that the scientific gathering
to whom his remarks were addressed were com
PEELED to admit the probability that plant life
is not devoid of a certain low order of instinct

DOING REMARKABLE WORK

DR.. Sheldon Jackson, Uunted States general
agent of education in Alaska, is attracting the
attention of the world by the progress he has
made in his work. The educational standing
of the frigid territory was practically nil when
DIR. Jackson took up his work there in 1885.
The population naturally scattered, and
communication was difficult There was seem
ingly no demand for education, so far the
major portion of the populace concerned
and the trip of the intendant teacher to the field
of his labOrs meant a long journey among the
icebergs by boat and then cross-country move
ment by dog train. Consequently the demand
for positions teachers in that country was
modest.

Nay Be Given Sweeping Change II White
House Conferences Should Be Fruit
ful Of Results

ful OF kesuitS
Washington special says: An impor-
tant conference was neld at the white
house Wednesday night. and, in a
sense, was continued Thursday, re.
specting amendments to the Sherman
antitrust law. The changes in the
law, 1t is expected will be proposed
along the lines suggested by the con-
ference Of the civic federation held In
Chicago few weeks ago. No con-
crete results were reached, and 1t is
likely that further conferences will be
held. The president, it is understood,
is DESTROYS that bill embodying the
conclusions of the conference, If any
be reached, be submitted to congress
for passage at this session.
Participating in the conference were
the president, Secretary Root, Secre-
tary Garfield, Attorney General Bona
parte, Herbert Knox Smith, Commits
sioner OF Corporations Seth Low, for
mer mayor Of New York; Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation Of Labor; Victor Morawetz,
general counsel for the Atchison, Tope-
ka and Santa Fe railroad, and Fran
els Lynde Stetson, of the firm Of j.
P. Morgan & Co., Of New York.
1t is said that the proposed changes
are Of sweeping importance and inter
est, inasmuch as, if crystallized into
law, it would mean practically re-
juvenation of the Sherman antitrust
act While no agreement was reached,
the trend of the discussion indicated
that common ground of understand
ing shortly will be reached, and that
perhaps within week measure will
be drafted which will be satisfactory
to all parties.
The particular interest of the labor
officers is to secure an amendment to
the Sherman antitrust law which will
exempt them from the practical oper-
alton of the act as to conspiracies in
restraint of trade. A proposition Of
that kind now is pending iii congress,
but, in the opinion of some of the
participants in the white house con-
ference. it would be unconstitutional

HOW TO KNOW PURE PAINT.
A Way in Which it May &c identified
Before Using.

After building has been painted
long enough for weather test, 1t is
easy. to tell 4 the paint used was
made of pure White Lead or not. But
such belated knowledge comes like
locking the barn after the colt is sto-
len.
What one wants is a test that will
tell the quality of the paint before it
and the labor Of putting it on are
paid for.
Nature has provided way in
which genuine White Lead may be
positively distinguished from adul-
terated or fake White Lead before
you spend a cent on your painting.
Pure White Lead is made from me-
tallic lead, and. under intense heat,
such as is produced by blow-pipe.
pure White Lead will resolve itself
back into metallic lead. II, however,
it is not genuine White Lead, or ii it
contains the slightest trace of adult
iteration, the change will not take
place. Therefore the 'blow-pipe" test
is an absolute and final one.
The National Lead Company are
urging every one interested in paint
ing to make this test Of paint before
using it, and they guarantee that the
pure White Lead sold under their
Dutch Boy Painter" trademark will
always prove absolutely pure under
the 'blow-pipe" or any other test.
To make it easy for you to perform
the experiment they will send you
free upon request a blowpipe and
everything necessary for you to make
the test, together with a valuable
booklet on paint. Address, National
Lead Company, Woodbridge Building,
