At the same time there is 2 slight
loss of nutrients. When in their nat
ural condition, oysters contain from
one-eighth to one-fifth more nutritive
material than when fattened. In the
opinion of very many consumers the
Improvement in appearance and flaw
or due to the removal of the salts
more than compensates for the loss
In nutritive value. 1t seems also to
be matter of common opinion that
oysters keep better when part OF the
salts has been removed by floating.
However, the experiments of the New
Jersey stations have shown that
freshened oysters will not remain
alive as long as those taken directly
from salt water. Freshening in
creases very rapidly the rate of weak
ening and decay. The life period is
reduced one-half.

1t is known tnar when q solution
of salts is separated by suitable
membrane from water containing a
lesser quantity of salts in solution,
the passage of salts Immediately be-
gins from the concentrated to the d.
lutte solution. This is practically the
condition that exists when the oyster
is transferred from salt to brackish
water. The fieshy portions OF the
body which are inclosed in a mem
brane contain salts in solution. AS
long as the oyster stays in salt wat
err, the solution of salts within its
body would naturally be in equilib-
rum with the water outside. When
the oyster is brought into fresh or
brackish water it might be expected
that the salts in the more concentrate
ed solution within the body would
pass out and larger amount of
fresh water enter and produce such
distension as actually takes place
during floating. Careful experiments
have shown that this supposition is
entirely correct, and that the oysters
actually gain in weight This Is due
largely to the fact that they lose min
eral matter and gain a considerable
amount of water.

The Order of the Bath.

The last Knights of the Bath made according to the ancient forms were at the coronation of Charles IT., when various rites and ceremonies-one of which was bathing, were enforced.
 According to Froissart, the court barber prepared a bath, and the can didate for membership in the order, having been undressed by his es- quires, was thereupon placed in the bath, his clothes and collars being the perquisities of the barber. He was then removed from the water tc the words, May this be an honorable bath to you" and was placed in a plain bed quite wet and naked to dry. As soon as he was quite dry he was removed from the bed, dressed in new and rich apparel, and conducted by his sponsors to the chapel, where he offered a taper to the honor of God and a penny piece to the honor of the king. Then he went to the monarch, and kneeling before him he

A KANE SURVIVOR.
Always Felt that the North Pole Would Be Found by an
 American.

Philadelphia, Sept. 2.-Ames Bonsall, the only survivor of the Elisha Kent Kane North Pole expedition that left this city in 1853. only to meet disaster at a point estimated 700 miles short of the goal. was intensely interested in the report of the success of Dr. Cooke's expedition. T shall believe that Dr. Cooke has discovered the pole until the contrary is proved, said BonSaIl today, Tor l have al ways believed that an American would do it. I think the eXtraordi- nary pluck manifested by Dr. Cooke deserves this regard. He went prdc- tically on his own hook.
 of course Dr. Cook will bring back material evidence of the discov- cry or will be able to give convinc- ing data Otherwise scientific men will be inclined to question the claims. The rigors of that region are such that it is almost impossible to con ceive of human beings surviving at all. It has been a question of endur- ance and little else, of a willingness to endure things of which the aver age mortal has no conception

PATIENCE AND CARE ARE NEG
 ESSARY

Let them begin by educating the child in early infancy. in sublime art of thinking for himself. For this pur- pose know of nothing better than the alphabet block method, which I have used in Williams case. All that is needed to make it successful is the ex- ercise of great patience on the par ents' part. They cannot expect the child to apprehend in a moment, the relation between the letters and the sounds they represent
 When I wished to interest my boy in geography, I bought a revolving globe for him, and then without tell ing him that was trying to teach him anything, got him interested in a game of finding places on the globe Either his mother or myself would join in the game and sometimes all three of us would be hard at it for half an hour or more, seeing which of us would be the first to find New York, London, the Indian ocean, or whatever place we might name.
 He learned typewriting through seeing me operate a typewriter His curiosity was aroused. He wanted to be shown how and I showed him. Sometimes, however, as is the case of learning arithmetic, he did not want to be shown how Then I had to stimulate his interest by becoming in terested in arithmetic myself, and by gradually inspiring in him the belief that arithmetic was good fun and ought to be studied
 This, let me emphasize, is the one thing needful after the preliminary stage of thought-training has been passed-to appeal to the child's in- terest. Don't try to drive him to his books, his slate, his multiplication table. He will go to them willingly enough if you only make them attrac- tive to him. To do this, let me repeat, you must be interested in them your self, and by your interest you are sin eere and tactful, you may always feel sure of arousing him. It means infinite patience and a great expenditure of time, but the result will more than re- pay your efforts."-H. Addington Bruce in Success Magazine.

This morning, according to Gleeson, she telephoned to tell him the news she had received. The message she read to him was as follows: Have placed Stars and Stripes over the north pole" She explained that it was from Cook and had been sent in accordance with an agreement between them that he would let her have the first news of the fate of his expedition Mrs. Martz left on a morning train and it was understood at the college that she was going to San Francisco.
 q consider Cooks success one of the greatest achievements of the cen tury." said Maurice Cornell, one of the six survivors of the Greeley expedi- tion. Tt is impossible for people to imagine what a man must endure be- fore he can reach the pole.
 q believe that after reaching the Pole Cook returned to Etah and spent the winter of 19OS-19OS there with the EsquimauX. In the spring he made his way back across the ice to Uperanik,
 where he took the boat south"

AMERICAN OPERA SINGERS II
 GERMANY.
The Change in German Feeling To-
 ward American Singers.

"The German stage is the only place for the American operatic aspirant," declared Leon RaInes. who made a fly ing visit of three weeks to the Metro politan opera house last winter. The first basso of the Dresden Royal Op- era blazed the way for his compantri- ots in German and in the ten years he has been singing abroad he has seen complete revolution in the attitude to- ward the American invaders. At the outset there was a strong prejudice against the cheeky Yankees as the critics called up. It grew stronger as we grew in numbers and for a time the situation was anything but pleas ant, especially in the court theaters, where there was opportunity for in triguing The Germans stopped at nothing to make life miserable for us. How the change in feeling came about I cannot undertake to say. Probably
 it was the attitude of the public. There was never any doubt about the admiration of the public for the Amer ican singers. The managers were not slow to see that and they protected and encouraged the Americans. Now we are taken as q matter. of course- A German opera house without an American singer is an oddity And a very fortunate thing it is for our young singers. Nowhere else can one acquire repertoire and experience so thoroughly as on the German stage. The German directors do everything in

Crime in London and in New York.

It is impossible for any London newspaper to exploit crimes as is done in New York. It would be impossible for any one to say how many bur glaries were committed in London last week, how many pockets were picked, how many swindles, or whether crime is more prevalent now than it was this time last year. The leading daily newspapers including the Times
 give the proceedings of the police courts a very prominent place, se- lecting the cases of general interest, and reporting the proceedings without comment. The London police told me that there is just about the amount of crime in London that would be nor nal to a population so large and where there is so much wealth and such an army of strangers. From other sources I was told that a num- Der of mysterious crimes. including murder, go undetected, though the number is far below that in New York-From William McAdoOs 'The London Police from a New York Point of View" in the September Century.
