Concerning Light.

There are lot of things about light
that most people do not know. How
many know, for instance. that the suns
light presses against the earth with a
force of 10000 tons? That. notwithstand-
ing that most houses are lighted by cleo
tricity or gas. or. at least. with kerosene,
the sale Of tallow candles is steadily In
creasing? That of the total energy given
to make candlelight only 2 per cent is
actually transformed into light? That
light can be obtained from loaf sugar?
That light exerts the greatest influence
in destroying odors. as of flowers? These
are some of the interesting things to be
found tomorrow in our Sunday Magazine.

LITERARY NEWS AND NOTES.

The November Woman's Home Com
panion contains an article by President
Taft of interest and Importance to every
woman. 1t is an appeal to the women
of our country to help the President in
his efforts to get the Senate to assent to
the arbitration treaties, which, if signed.
will go long way toward abolishing
war. 1t would be great achievement,
and the President believes that women
can help bring it to pass.
