Some very remarkable experiments
have been going on lately at the Carne-
gle Nutrition Labratory In Roxbury,
Mass, which will make certain that
which has hitherto been merely guess
work, and which promise to rob Of their
terror diabetes, typhoid fever. and many
other diseases so greatly dreaded, IL not
blotting them out altogether from the
list Of the thousand natural ills the
flesh is heir to. By means of a machine
called respiration calorimeter," the
exact amount of energy bottled up with
in person can be found out, whether
the person be awake or asleep. 1t Is
also possible to ascertain by this means
just how much energy is contained in
different kinds of foods, in q pound of
beefsaeak, boiled egg, soups, etc. Ac-
cording to these scientists all that will
be necessary in the near future, when a
person has certain piece of work he
wishes to perform and does not wish to
overstrain himself, will be to have his
own energy tested,- and IL found not
sufficient for the work to increase it by
eating that food which will give him
the desired amount. Everything will be
so exact that he will know just how
much beefsteak, or just how many eggs,
or whatever the food may be, he must
consume to give him the wished-for re-
suit. A persons mental energy can also
be tested and reinforced in the same
manner. The experiments were origi-
nally undertaken to study nutrition
problems. but as they went on it was
found that one Of the greatest aids Of
the century to the medical profession
had been discovered. The person upon
whom the experiment is being made Is
confined in chamber whose interior Is
copper-walled, with an opening In front
which serves as a door and window, and
a smaller door at the side, having tight
ly fitting caps at both ends, thru which
the food and drink are passed. The
chamber is made perfectly comfortable
in the way Of furnishings, and a tele-
phone is provided. Usually the person
is kept in the chamber four days and
nights, but aside from the restricted
space the experiment has nothing un-
pleasant about 1t. To the optimist 1t
must almost seem as If this discovery,
added to the vast amount Of light which
has been thrown on the treatment of,
and the prevention Of disease during
the last 25 years, would put in the near

How any one can say that the world
is growing hard and selfish in the face
of the constantly occurring proofs to
the contrary is hard to understand.
Just the other day one of the busiest
of Cincinnati's business men took his
precious time to go to the Cincinnati
Hospital, where he offered to allow the
doctor to remove two inches of flesh
to graft upon little baby who had
been terribly burned. The man did not
know the child, but in reading his daily
rs per had come upon the story of the
accident, which stated that flesh for
grating was greatly needed to help the
injured little one, and this busy man,
who did not wear his heart upon his
sleeve, but who had a very tender one
nevertheless, proved it by rushing off
to the hospital, ready to give his
healthy cuticle for the suffering child.
Which was fine, and does us all good
to read about.

derive an enormous income from its
dwelling house property, but the re-
port states that the value of this has
greatly deprecated, on account of the
changed character of the neighbor-
hoods of which these houses form n

Any sort of surgical operation, no
matter how simple, is looked upon with
feelings of intense dread even by the
stoutest heart, and large part of this
is due to the unpleasant thought that
while the operation is going on, un-
conscious tho the patient be, crowd
of unfeeling medical students, nurses
and doctors stand around viewing the
same. To the sensitive, refined person
this thought is full of repugnance, yet
up to the present time such a custom
has generally been the rule, and the
patient obliged to submit to it. How

Helena of Italy, working among her
dead and wounded subjects at Messina,
was a sight not soon to be forgotten.
The Queen is woman above the aver
age hight, and gives the impression of
splendid health and vigor. Before she
married the King her life had been ex-
ceedingly simple. Montenegro is poor
country, and the palace of her father,
King Nicholas, was conspicuous by the
absence Of that splendor and luxury
which is usually associated with the
Montenegran mountains, among which
her youth was spent, and the Ere edom
of her life from the injurious influences
on mind and body which surrounds
most OF the young Princes and
Princesses OF the wealthy courts of Eu-
rope, gave her that magnificent physi-
cal equipment which has stood her in
such good stead of late. On account
OF this very simplicity and what might
be called the unworldliness of the
Queen, she has not been very popular
among her wealthy and aristocratic
subjects in Rome, Florence, etc, who
have considered her, in consequence, as
lacking in certain qualities necessary
in Queen. She has been criticised by
them for her Indifference in matters
pertaining to dress, and for the lack
of display which has characterized the
domestic life of the Quirinal. But the
terrible calamity which has recently
visited fair Italy has been the means of
revealing the Queens noble and unsel-
fish character to her subjects, who see,
perhaps for the first time, that the
woman sitting beside their King on
he fbrO-n of Italy rnpcGESSaS that which
constitutes true greatness. and which,
alone, fits her for her exalted office.
Helena has, indeed, given not only her
subjects, but the world, a splendid illus
tration of that fine old motto, NO
blesse Oblige," and her action has been
an inspiration to her countrywomen.
Many women Of the Italian aristocracy
have become nurses, converting their
magnificent palaces into hospitals. The
Queen, who has returned to Rome, has
opened a sewing circle in the Quirinal,
experimenting the work herself. There
gather daily women of the highest and
lowest rank, reduced to the same level
by that pity which makes the whole
world kin, and who sew and cut out
garments industriously, side by side,
thru the entire day, with the exception
of one hour in the afternoon, when
they stop for a little rest and a cup of
tea served by the Queen herself When
their MaJeStleS returned TO Rome they
did SO very quietly, wishing to avoid
any demonstration, and succeeded in
reaching the palace without being rec
ognfzed. But the people soon found
out they were there, and a large crowd
gathered before the Quirinal who made
a great noise, cheering and shouting
for their King and Queen, displaying
an enthusiasm which showed how re-
cent events had fired their hearts.
Finally their Majesties appeared on a
balcony looking so sad and pale, so
care-worn and grief stricken that the |
shouting stopped instantly and all eyes |
filled with tears. The court festivities |
connected with the New Year, which |
open the gay season in Rome, were

these years piling up the dollars to pay
that he has more time on his hands he
occasionally acts just as any other man
would. Not many Sundays ago, so the
newspapers say, John d. came into
church little late, when all the pews
were pretty nearly filled. The great
financier stepped into his, which still
had room for one more, when he no.
ticed an usher in the aisle looking for
a seat for a strange woman. John D.
at once gallantly offered the empty one
at his side, and then, just as If he had
done nothing at all unusual, went on
singing the first hymn. But there were
those in the congregation who have
been attending the church as long as
the great John, whose eyebrows went
up little and who looked at each other
in mild astonishment.
Since American girls seem determined
to marry English noblemen in spite of
the disastrous results which have fol-
lowed many such alliances, 1t is q mat
ter of thanksgiving on the part of their
friends If they happen to strike really
good fellow. Miss Beatrice Mills, who is
to marry the Earl Of Granard in New
York early in January, If what is said
about her noble fiance be true, Is to be
congratulated on her choice Of a hus-
band. OF course, she makes great
mistake In not marrying an American,
but since she must have an English
nobleman there is nothing really serious
to be said against the Earl. He is a
very popular young man in England,
manly. kindly. simple in manner and
very much interested in public work.
He belongs to quite a large family, his
noble mother having presented her no.
BILE husband twice with twins, and most
of his brothers and sisters are still un-
married. The family is Irish and Ro-
man Catholic, and the family name fs
Forbes. Miss Mills is the daughter of
Ogden Mills, and a granddaughter Of

Neither her grandfather nor her aunt,

try, will be present at the wedding. as
they will start for California fortnight
before 1t takes place. This has led to
the report that they do not approve Of
Miss Mills's choice, which is denied by
the family. D. o. Mills says that ne goes
to California every Winter. and that
this is the most convenient time for him
to make the journey. Miss Mills Is to
have very quiet, private wedding. and
will be married by a Catholic priest,

Washington, March 29.-The first Of
fetal meeting of Secretary of Com
merce and Labor Nagel with the ma
tional council of commerce took place
today in the department over which
the secretary presides. Secretary Ma
gel expressed much interest in the
work of the council, which was or
ganized during the term Of his prede-
cessor, Secretary Straus. Plans for
extending the usefulness of the coun-
Gil were discussed.
The council bears the character of Il
national chamber of commerce or board
of trade, furnishing the secretary with
information as to the needs and con-
ditions of various industries.
About fifty large bodies belong to the
council. including such organizations
as the National Association of Manu-

INFORMATION IS
SOUGHT BY MEN
Eastern Scientists viii Acquire
Utah'S Methods of
Fighting Pests.

With the object of acquiring informa-
ton concerning western methods of
fighting pests that prey on fruit trees
and other plant life, two prominent pro-
tessors Of the University of Illinois. c.
). CrandaH pOmOlOgist, and J. c. Blair.
hOrticultarist, will pay d visit this
week 10 Utah and other states Of the
west and the northwest.
Professor Z. q. Titus, entomologist at
the state Agricultural college, will leave
salt Lake this morning to meet the
eastern professors at roVo, with a view
10 going over the ground with them.
While the stay of the two men of
science viii be limited, it is thought
that a thorough investigation of condi-
tons at Provo, Brigham and Lo-
gan Will be made. Information concern
ing other sections Of the state will be
furnished by Professor Titus.
The wonderfully successful methods
which have been used in the west for
several years in eliminating pests that
threaten the fruit crops have appealed
TO the eastern men Of science, and they
would learn more Of what has been
done than is contained in short reports
sent out. 1t is extremely probable that
the methods used here, especially the
method Of spraying trees, will be used
IN Illinois, on the recommendation Of
the two professors.
