The Primary Planets.

The primary planets are those which
are the centers of secondary systems,
consisting of small globes revolving
around them in the same manner as
they revolve around the sun. These
are called secondary planets, satellites
or moons. The primary planets which
are thus attended carry the satellites
or secondary planets with them In
their orbits around the sun.
Ted and the Text.
The golden text for certain Sunday

Little Ted's hand went up like

for today? All. how glad 1t makes my
heart to see so many little hands go
up! Teddy, my boy. you may repeat 1t,
and speak good and loud that all may
hear"
And they all heard this: "And the
child grew and waxed strong in spirit
like 2: 40"

The Panama Canal In War.

The strategic value of the Panama
canal is estimated to be equivalent to
a fleet Of large battleships. This is
the conclusion Of DR.. Cornish. given
before the Royal Geographical society
In London. Taking the cost Of the
canal at $5Ooooo,OOo, which would only
build forty first class battleships now

good bargain and be able to cover a
total coast line without any material

LADIES' WEEK
Legislature Has Made Progress. Trustee
Bill Passed House; Tax Bill, Primary
Elections. Employers Liability
Yet Untouched.

sThe legislature is not supposed to
do much during ladies' week, but the
past week has shown that the legis-
lature of 1910 at least can mix bust
ness with pleasure Nearly a hundred
bills were introduced and they COW
cred nearly as many Subjects Pub
lie hearings were had on the question
of municipal suffrage for women and
on the exchange of mileage for ad-
vertising space. The Otter Creek bill
was considered three or four times
and finally killed and the trustee bill
was considered a half day by the
house and passed. Several society
meetings have been held and the Gov
ernor has held his ball and reception
and nobody has lacked for something
to do. The senate has attended to
matters of - regular business and
seems to be marking time, waiting
for the house to send them some bust
ness on important legislation.
BILLS INTRODUCED.
Among the interesting bills intro
duced during the week are those of
Senator Dale incorporating the
Brighton and Newark railroad to open
the extensive granite quarries in the
town of Newark that of Senator
CuShman compelling employers to
hold back 10 per cent of wages to pay
existing judgments and abolishing
trustee process as to such wages
that of Senator Adams calling for an
appropriation aiding the Austine
Institution at Brattleboro in caring
for deaf, dumb. blind and idiotic
children that of Senator Powell for
