The Ultra Microscope.

The ultra microscope is a recent de-
vice of science. BY it's aid 1t is ex-
pected that many Heterogeneous
which hitherto defied observation will
be detected. AS the classification OF
microbes has advanced, biologists
have inclined to the conclusion that
many must still remain unknown, too
small to be perceived with any instru-
ment hitherto in use.
The new apparatus is the invention
of two Frenchmen, Cotton and Mon
ton. 1t involves no change in the ex-
listing arrangement of lenses. 1t is
the system of lighting that Is revolu-
tionized. The ray is used at right
angles to the axis of the instrument,
instead of c%oinciding with it. Thus
the light sweeps across the objective
parallel with its plane.
BY this means it is said that many
particles so small that they have de-
fed detection under the most power
full glasses become visible as brilliant
points. 1t is a new world, enthusiast
tic microscopists say, that is opened
to scientific study.

Especially by Seamen.

Among the saloon passengers ar

of Swan Island, and who is known
throughout Central America as the
king OF Swan Island. His domain
is a fertile island situated in the Car
ibbean Sea, upon which he has a
beautiful residence and numerous
houses for his laborers. lie raises
fruit and c%ocoanuts and employs sew
eral hundred men. Mr.. Adams is a
philanthropist, and has assisted not
only the inhabitants of several of the
friends CT the Caribbean, but Is Of
especial help to mariners. Knowing
TIE value of a light to guide the YES
sells running through the Caribbean on
their way from New York and Boston
TO Port Limon and other points, he
built and maintains a light on the is
land, which can be seen for many
miles, and rays of which warn the
captains of steamers not to approach
too close to the shallow waters in the
vicinity. Mr.. Adams is sixty-iye
years old and is a native of East
port. He keeps informed of what is
t~ranspiring in the world by the pap

Of the 1909 Hats?

A good many folk tell us they prefer our Hats for the rea-
son that they appear to be less extreme than some other stores
are showing. We believe we have struck a happy medium and
that the shapes and styles now here will be most favored
throughout the season. Certain it is we have omitted nothing
from the showing that the fashion creators in Paris and New
York deem worthy a place in their shops. A good many, of
course, are their original models. Others are adaptations.
Quite a few have been the product of our own splendid Mill
ners- and these latter have found most ready sale, indicating a
pleasing preference for originality.
There are Hats here for as little as S.; some excellent
styles are S750-and then the price procession marches onward
and upward, the cost depending largely upon the size, shape
see the showing. 1t will at once inspire and delight you.

rations were issued twice q; day all re-

Fires were breaking out all around

debris nearby, the cobbler made hur-

He found two girls dying.

the chest Of the other had been crushed
in. The cobbler picked up a baby, but
it expired in his arms. Seized with
mad terror, the man fled toward the
sea.
Yesterday an old man who had lost
all his family was seen going about the
ruins vainly asking for food. He sud-

"As nobody helps me, will die!" and
