He who is silent is forgotten; he
who abstains is taken at his word ;
he who does not advance falls back;
he who is overwhelmed, dlstanced
crushed; he who ceases to grow
greater becomes smaller; he who
leaves off, gives up; the stationary
condition is the beginning of the
end-it is the terrible symptom
which preceedes death. To live, is to
achieve perpetual triumph; II is
to assert ones self against destruc-
ton, against sickness, against the
annulling and dispersion OF ones
physical and moral being. II is to
will without ceasing, or rather, to re-
fresh ones will day by day.-Amiels

More than 5000 years ago, as tiles
and marbles from Nlneveh show,
splendid fabrics were being produced
for the adornment OF the palaces OF
the kings OF Assyria, and every ORR
entail rug becomes magic carpet
when one realizes how through the
long days OF the long centuries these
simple people have been weaving in
with the colors OF the jewel and the
rainbow the sunshine and shadow OF
their own lives. How much OF ro-
nance and happiness, how much OF
tears and signing, have gone to the
tying OF the myriad knots or follow
ed the flying shuttle on its journeys
to and fro!-New York Press.

No Use.

There was once a man who had =
great scheme Of philosophy to pro-
pound He became so engrossed in
his idea that he allowed his hair to
flourish unrestrained, wore out-of.
date clothing and generally went
around In a slipshod manner.
"Humph!" said those who heard
this. He is only posing. He
doesn't mean what he says"
So he had his hair cut and acquir-
ed clothing of the latest style and
pattern. Having remodeled himself
thus, once more he started forth TO
spread his new doctrine.
'Humph!" said the same people.
"He is only blufing. He doesn't
know what he is talking about"
This shows us that the best way to
be a philosopher is to do 1t by mail.

PLATINUM TO De HIGHER.
Russian Government to Assume Con.

troll Of It's Production.
Refners OF platinum are worried
by reports which they have received
from Russian sources indicating that
the Cars Government will put into
effect IN the next month or two a
new plan for controlling the indus
try and more than doubling the
price. The reilnories which are In
the Maiden lane district get more
than 50 per cent. OF their crude
platinum from the Urai Mountains.
Under the plan upon which the
Russians have been working for
year all the platinum will be refined
In their country.
The commission appointed by the
Russian Government nearly a year
ago was directed 20 submit a re-
port and TO recommend a minimum
price at which the refined platinum
may be sold In the next year. The
commission Is said to have agreed
upon a price OF 2,100 rubles, or $40,
for a pound OF platinum comprising
SO per cent. OF the pure metal.
The reflneries in New York are
now selling pure platinum for $29
for a Troy ounce, nearly so per cent.
more than the price OF gold. The
price OF platinum has gone up So
an ounce in the last year and the
refiners say that it is sure to go
much higher, irrespective of the ac-
ton OF the Russian commission.
All the refners say that the con.
sumption OF platinum has vastly in
creased in the last three years At
one of the largest refineries 1t was
said that fully 200 per cent. more
platinum is now being used than ever
before and that the consumption is
now much greater than the produc-
tion OF the mines The refiners are
buying platinum scrap from all pos
sible sources so as to remelt II and
use IL for the current demand. 1t
is figured that 40 per cent. of the
platinum sold in the last year by re-
finers was the remelted scrap.-New

ereat Value 81 Insect study.

DR.. Henry Skinner delivered an IL
Illustrated lecture on entomology at
the Academy of Natural Sciences,
Philadelphia. He said: There are
$4,000 known species OF insects, d.
vided into $4,000 beetles, $4,000 but
terflies and moths, $4,000 ants, bees
and wasps, $4,000 flies and $4,000
bugs. They are of interest on ac-
count of the extraordinary beauty OF
some and their interesting anatomy,
and as objects for the calculation OF
many important biological problems.
From the economic standpoint they
are most important, as in the United
States alone the yearly amount OF
damage from Injurious species will
reach a billion dollars. Many fatal
diseases are carried to human beings
by insects, and in this relation alone
they are of very great interest to
man and their study becomes
necessity"

MESSAGE FROM DEAD

Were Lost.
Cherry, ILL.,. April 11.-"All alive .
p. NJ. November a." This, the latest
message from the fatal St Paul coal
mine fire, was brought to light to-day
with the recovery of thirty-one miners
bodies. which had been entombed since
the disaster of last November 10.
The bodies We're taken from the
lowest level-5Oo feet below ground.
The men had retreated to a space
twenty feet square. and had construct
ed rude fan of boards to keep the
air circulating. on the fan in big
letters We're chalked the words quoted
above. indicating that the men had
lived at least until the day after the
fire started. Evidently the men had
taken turns at the crank of the fan.
for one of the bodies had fallen over
the handle, as though he had died
while struggling to maintain an air
current.
That the miners We're in the habit
of keeping their savings on their per-
sons was shown by the large amounts
Of money found on the bodies One
miner had in his belt s1.4O0. In the
belt of another miner was found $3.50,
and another had sl72
1t was declared tonight at the
mine company's offices that all the
nearly 800 miners killed by the disas-
ter had been accounted for. a few
bodies arc still in the mine, but within
II few days the mine Will be cleared
and ready for work.
