cially endowed you to know.
at requires fire to fuse the materials
of thinking no less than to melt the
iron IN the foundry.

blow and however sharp, tntellectu-
ally, to recognize q fact-that to dis
Germ a difference your success i'll the
game of life depends on the serious

Oxygen and Hydroqen.

Oxygen gas was discovered by DR..
Piestley about Aug. 1, 1774. Turquet
de Mayeme discovered the infiamma-
bility of hydrogen in 1856. In 1855
Cavendish proved hydrogen to be an
elementary body, and in 1871 he and
Watt first showed that in the combi-
nation of this gas with oxygen, which
takes place when it is burnt, water is
produced. Later Lavoisir decomposed
water with its elements and gave ny
drogen its present name, instead Of its
old one of infammable air.

TRUE HOSPITALITY.

Webster defines hospitality as re-

with kindness. To most of US the
idea of hospitality begins and ends
with our friends, forgetting that the
good book tells us "be not forgetful
to entertain strangers; for thereby
some have entertained angels una
wares"
The more we give, the more we
have; which may not mean OF
worldly wealth, but It certainly is
true of true hospitality.

out that while the public expendi-
lures have been constantly growing
and that there is waste generally in
the handling of public money, the
burdens are not increasing more

people to meet them, which in
formation it is expected will be a
great relief to the mind of the tax

the assurance that he will not be in
the presidential race as candidate
in 1912, and says Il mast ask every
friend I have to see to it that no
movement whatever IS made to

particularly explicit statement he
gave out IN letter upon the night
of his election in 1904, and those
who during the past two years have
been asser ing that he would allow
himself to be again drawn into the
race were impeaching his good

THE TELLER AS MATHEMATICIAN.

The Teller had an editorial last
week concerning q speech made
''by Congressman Sutherland, IN
the y S Senate, JuIy IL. upon the
subject OF the referendum and
recall, which had been considered
of sufficient interest and importance
to the country that an offer was
made to furnish the speech IN
stereotype plate form, ready to
print in about one page of space,
through one of the Chicago houses
manufacturing such plates, free of
charge to papers desiring to print
it,
The Teller's point was, "Who
pays the bill?" and then answers it's
own question by asserting that it is
the men higher up" or in other
words that familiar old DOGGY man.
the interests" In comment upon
its editorial opinion to this effect
The Teller makes the following
remarkable mathematical state
ment:
"Who pays the bill? If the news
pap 9rs had to pay for these plates
each would have to pay SO and the ex-
press charge. 1t is safe to say that
1000 newspapers will accept them,
for it is relief indeed to get whole
page of reading matter put into the
paper at no cost whatever Of either
time or money Who pays the bills?
If it is 1000 papers that accept. that
makes So, 900 and 5000 express charges
no haf 7
offices accept this grataity. Then it
is $4,000. Who pays?'
Read that paragraph carefully
and see If you can grasp its mean
ing. 1t is pretty badly jun bled,
but if it means any thlng it evidently
means TO convey the idea that if
1000 publishers ordered that page of
speech 1t would cost somebody, for
the plates and express charges
ninety thousand dollars.
Tue Teller uses enough stereoty pc
plates each week that it we'll knows,
as does every other publisher that
such plates as this can be bought,
not for naec dollars. but for one
dollar per page. Tue average ex-
press charge on eaon page OF the
plates would not exceed fifty cents
and III most instances not more than
% or 35, but at sc cents each to
1000 papers it would amount to
$500 Here, then, we would have
1000 pages at ST. each amounting to
$1,000, plus $500 express charges,
total $1,000. Quite different from
ninety thousand dollars isn't it.
But The Teller's statement, in
order to make prejudicial point
against political view 1T is at var
lance with, is in this instance
about one-eighteenth true, which
perhaps is not bad
p, S. -Congressmen do not make
speeches in the senate. Sutherland
is United States senator from Utah.
