PROVES ELECTRICAL FACTS.
Discovery
IDS in a. Individual


Guile of air is in rapid motion, but we
measured the order of magnitude of
energy of agitation and find it to
agree with the computations based
upon the kinetic theory.
I'm brief the method by which all
these results have been obtained is as
follows: We blow cloud of fine oil
or mercury drop by means of an
atomizer, and introduce one of these
drops through a pinhole into the
space between the plates of hori-
Zontal air condenser. The droplet
there catches one or more of the ions
which normally exist in air or which
have been produced in the space be-
tween the plates by any of the usual
ionizing agents, like radium or X
rays. The time of fall Of this droplet
through a measured distance is OBJ
served when no electrical field exists
between the plates, then a field of
strength between 5000 and 5000 volts
per ce.ltimeter is thrown on and the
ti1le of rise Of the droplet under the
influence of this field through the
same distance is again measured. This
OUeration is repeated and the speeds
checked an indefinite number of times
or until the droplet catches new ion,
when it's speed, under the influence of
the field, instantly changes, though
the speed under gravity remains con-
slant. From the sign and magnitude
of the change in speed the sign and
exact value of the charge carried by
captured ion Is determined The
air in single observation need not
exceed one-third Of one per cent.
From the values of the speeds OBJ
served all of the conclusions may be
| directly deduced." = ---.-..--....---.

WHEN A MAN
MARRIES In CHINA.
Advantages Of the John Alden
Method Are Surprisingly Em-
= phasized by Chinese Suitors.

DR.. Isaac T. Headland, resident
OF Pekin for many years, where he
enjoyed the friendship of the late
Dowager Empress, throws new light
on the new women of China, in the
Travel Magazine. Taking up the re-
lations between the sexes and espe-
cially the Chinese method of getting a
wife, the writer repeats CONVERSE
ton with young Chinaman who had
recently become engaged to Chinese
maiden with whom he had never spo-
ken.
1--WE students have very great adj
vantage over the old Chinese method
of finding a wife and getting en-
gagged" said my Celestial friend.
What do you mean?" inquired.
'Well, you see, by the old Chinese
method man can never see his wife
less he can bride the middle-man to
allow him to stand on the street COR
ner and see her pass by in a cart
And what advantage do you
have?"
1--WE see the girls in church." he
answered. "They also can see us. We
have sisters in the girls schools; they
have brothers in the college, and
when we go home during vacation we
can learn all about each other"
This is an advantage"
''In my judgment" he continued,
1--WE have better method than even
you foreigners have"
How is that?"
"Well, you see," he continued, "af-
ter we have selected the lady we
want, we can have a middle-man go
and ask her for us, while you have to
so and ask the lady yourself"
But" l objected, eve can get so
much better acquainted by our
method"
Eyes, that's true" he admitted,
"but doesn't it make you awfully an
CRY if you ask girl to marry you
and she refuses?"
1t was necessary to admit that
there were advantages in the middle
man method which had never oc-
Cured to me, and while l was not
ready to acknowledge that his new
found method was better than mine,
l could still see that the force which
brought it about was bringing woman
out of her seclusion and placing her
on level with her brother and her
future husband.

FEED CHILDREN
On Properly Selected Food. 1t Pays
Big Dividends.

II parents will give just little in
telligent thought to the feeding of
their children the difference in the
health of the little folks will pay,
many times over, for the small
trouble.
A mother writes saying: "Our
children are all so much better and
stronger than they ever were before
we made change in the character Of
the food. We have quit using pota-
toes three times day with coffee and
so much meat.
Now we give the little folks some
fruit, either fresh, stewed, or canned,
some Grape-Nuts with cream, occa-
sionally some soft boiled eggs, and
some Postum for breakfast and sup
per. Then for dinner they have some
meat and vegetables.
ut would be hard to realize the
change in the children, they have
grown so sturdy and strong, and we
attribute this change to the food ele-
ments that, I understand, exist in
Grape-Nuts and Postum.

Household Helps.

It is surprising the many different appe-
tizing ways that Corned Beef can be pre-
pared for the familys meals. Every one
likes Corned Beef and there is no more
healthful or delicious dish than Llbby's,
carefully selected from prime beef and
properly "cured."
There is some waste, to be sure, when
bought at the butchers, but in the plan
here suggested you may buy the finest
corned beef in the world in which there
is absolutely no waste and every particle
of which can be eaten
Suppose you ask your grocer for Lib
by's Corned Beef 1t represents all full
corned beef selected first hand from the
finest beef stock--no scraps or second
pieces-and corned and cooked to per-
lection in Libby's wonderful white en-
amel kitchens. A can of Libby's Corned
Beef sliced and served cold with dill
pickles and potato salad is a delightful
meal and will be enough for four people.
Corned Beef Hash.9Take the contents
of can, chop fine, add one-fourth~as much
boiled or baked potatoes, a little fried
onion and a small quantity of water Cook
slowly until thoroughly heated, then serve
on toast with or without poached eggs.
Corned Beef Omelette.-Beat the yolks
and whites of four eggs separately and add
one-half of the whites to all of the yolks.
Drowned on the bottom, sprinkle cup of
minced corned beef over it. Spread over
this the remainder of the whites put in
the oven and brown on top. Then fold
and serve.
Dreamed Corned Beef.-Mince the con-
tents of can of Libby's Corned Beef.
Put over this dressing of cream gravy
with the yolk of an egg beaten into it.
Serve on toast
New England Boiled Dnner-You may
have this in one-fourth of the time it
usually takes. Put a can of Libby's Corned
Beef in boiling water-it is already cooked
and serve in the usual manner with
vegetables.
Besides the economy in the use of Lib
by's Corned Beef, another great advantage
to the housewife in using it is that it is all
cooked when bought and there is no neces-
sity for the long, tedious and expensive
boiling which is necessary with raw corned
beef. The house is not flied with steam
and odors and valuable time is saved.
Libby's Corned Beef is ready at once for
serving in any one of the many ways men,
toned above, and you will find it great
convenience to try it next time. Be sure
you get Libby, Mcneil & Libby's Corned
Beef

Menager Is himself almost a royal

a handsome private residence near
by, and, unless some special state
banquet is on hand, he rarely goes
to his duties until 1890 or II a. m.
His first care is to inspect the lunch
menu for that day, which has been
prepared in advance by his first as
sistant, and, that matter being set
tied satisfactorily, he turns to
similar study of next mornings break
fast. The really big work of the day
comes in planning the dinner for the
succeeding day. for the dinner card
for the royal table always is map

and here is a task that demands two
or three hours devoted work. There
is a special kitchen In the palace re-
