SOAP BUBBLES.

Thinness Of the Gray Hued Films Just
Before They Burst.
What is soap bubble? Nothing bat
a film Of water molecules held together
by the cohesive power of soap in solu
ton. A soap bubbles size and strength
depend upon the right composition of
the mixture that furnishes its mate
rial The colors In soap bubble are
due to what Is known in physics as the
interference Of light. and depend upon
the varying thickness Of the film Of
water.
as it is blown will notice that the col
ors rapidly chase one another over the
flmy globe. He will also see that
they vary in hue. growing less and
less bright at the top of the bubble
because there gravity stretches it
downward and makes the film thin
nest.
1t Is a singular fact that the last
color to appear on a soap bubble just
before 1t breaks Is gray tint. The
appears upon 1t Is less than the one
hundred and fifty-six-thousandth of an
inch.
Were soap bubble to be magnified
to the size of the earth and the mole
cules magnified in proportion. then the
whole structure would be as coarse
grained as a globe of small leadshot
touching one another Mt their surfaces
In the blowing of soap bubble there
is presented the spectacle Of the
stretching of a liquid to the extreme
limit Of its capacity. In this way we
come nearer to a sight of the invisible
molecules Of matter than could be go
in any other way no matter how elab
crate the experiment Exchange.

NORTHWEST WILL
OPPOSE TREATY
Congressman Aroused Over
Agreement With Canada.

Washington, Jan= PA storm OF
protest has been aroused among
Northwestern members over the pro-
posed reciprocity treaty which was
outlined in special message to con-
gress by President Taft: The jnstru-
ment in effect would place practically
all of the agricultural products on the
free list so far as trade with the Do.
miniOn is concerned.
Doubt is expressed by many North
western members that the treaty and
the concurrent legislation which will
have to be enacted to put the instru-
ment into force can be passed at this
session. There was report, If the
treaty failed at this time, the presi-
dent might be disposed to call con-
gress in extra session in March.
The burden of talk of Northwestern
members is the treaty would be Sc
we're blow to the agriculture industry
of that section. The terms of the
treaty have not been fully digested by
Northwestern senators and represent
atives as yet, but those who have ex-
amined it express disapproval.
The indications are the proposed
arrangement will be opposed by ma
jority Of the Northwestern contingent
and members from New England, who
are bitterly set against some of its
provisions.
The administration is of opinion
that the majority of the Republicans
and a considerable number of Demo
Gratis will stand by the treaty because
it places many articles of every day
necessity on the free list However.
it is realized, as congress will adjourn
on March 4, determined opposition
can prevent action at this session.

DISCOVERS NEW MINERAL.

After a Trenton Man.
) Dr. A. Fl. Phillips, professor of min
eralogy at Princeton university, has
announced the discovery of a new min
eral in the vicinity of Franklin Fur
mace, N. J. Professor Phillips names
his discovery gazette, in honor Of II.
B. Gage of Trenton, through whose eff
forts sufficient material was gathered
to make the necessary analysis. The
new mineral is said to belong to the
family of leucophoenicite. and its prob
able existence has been predicted by
mineralogists since 1909.
Gazette is found in a transparent
crystalline formation and possesses
high vitreous luster. Thus far none of
the mineral has been found anywhere
but in the Parker shaft near Franklin,
where it was discovered lodged in the
walls of small cavities and In ian
shaped groups.
It is not believed that the new mill
eral will be of any value commercially.

Phillips died in Bellevue hospital,
victim of Fitzhugh Coyle Goldsbor-

Monday for a fancied grudge, then
killed himself. Phillips fought valiant

too much even for his tenacity.
He was conscious up to within a
quarter of an hour of his death. At
the bedside were his sister, Mrs. Car.

Phillips; his personal physician, DR.
Eugene Fuller, and DR.. Donovan of
Bellevue. The immediate cause of his
death was hemorrhage from the right
lung, which had been pierced by one

RICHES seen ON

man Worth Fortune.
ANTICOSTI BEING DEVELOPED.

Wood Pulp to Be Exported to United
States, as Menisr's Property 10 Not
Amsnable to New Dominion Law.
Half . Million to 30 Expended on
improvements.
Anticosti, the Canadian island prin-
cipality Of Henri Menier. the French
chocolate man, is shut off from the
outside world for another season, the
last boat having arrived in Quebec
from there. and nothing more will be
heard from it till navigation in the
lower st. Lawrence and gulf is opened
in the spring. Great changes are 60
ing on in the island, which is rapidly
becoming important industrially.
Henri Menier has tried many things
to make the island self supporting. In.
cluded in these enterprises have been
lobster and other fisheries and even
the breeding Of silver foxes. only to
result in failure.
New Markets Opened.
There is a great amount Of spruce
and fir timber on the island, but 1t Is
for the most part not of size suitable
for deals, and until now the haul from
AnticOsti has been considered too long
for successfully marketing the pulp
wood.
But with the adoption by the prov
ince of Quebec last spring Of its policy
of prohibiting the expectation of pulp
boom on the island. and now great
plans are On foot for the expectation
of pulp wood to the United States in
vast quantities, beginning next spring.
Mr.. Menier is building one Of the
largest rossing plants in the world.
with capacity of 400 cords day.
Rossing plants are mills in which the
bark is removed from pulp wood by
machinery. the logs being cut into two
foot lengths and these two foot blocks
held against a rapidly revolving disk
in which are set knives which cut the
bark away.
Not Affected by Law.
AS Mr.. Menier owns the island in
fee simple the prohibition of the ex-
port Of pulp wood from the province
of Quebec does not affect him, such
prohibition applying only to wood cut
from the crown lands. Not less than
10000 cords of this rossed wood will
be shipped from Anticosti next season,
all of it going to points in New York
state on the upper ST. Lawrence and
Lake Ontario.
The population now numbers 1900.
Mr.. Menier will spend next summer on
the island. and he is planning to ex
pend 100000 in improvements. includ-
ing the construction of twenty miles
Of railway. Miles of new railway will
be added each year till the road runs
the whole length of the island.
Six hundred laborers are employed
this winter in cuttil.- pulp wood. A
wharf mile long has been construct
ed at Ellis bay. where it will be loaded
on to steamships.

found after a few applications and by
bandaging my hands well up that the
burning sensations were disappearing,
l could sleep we'll, and did not have
any itching during the night. began
after a while to use Cuticura Soap for
q wash for them, and think by using
the Soap and Ointment l was much
benefited. I stuck to the Cuticura
treatment and thought If could use
other remedies for over seven years
with no result, and after only having
q few applications and finding ease
from Cuticura Ointment. thought it
deserved a fair trial with a severe
and stubborn case. I used the Oint
ment and Soap for nearly six months,

matte manner. A hawker named Hen
ry Stanley, locally knowns as "the
BULL" was accused of causing the
death of a man named Clarke In a
public-house quarrel. Stanley's de-
scription was given to the police. and
a force of detectives started On his
track. He was chased over a wide
area and was driven back into the
heart of the city. When the police
were close upon his heels Stanley de-
cided to surrender himself, and head
ed straight for the police station. He
entered the room one minute in front
of his pursuers. Sinking into a chair
in an exhausted condition, he exclaim-

Due Precautions.

In a town in Georgia there was an
old preacher whose knowledge OF the
world was not wide nor deep, but who
conceived it to be a place where, IL
one should trust his fellow men, he
should at the same time keep an eye
ON his own interests.
One hot day he pulled off his coat
and preached a vigorous sermon, IN
der the pines, in his shirt sleeves. AT
the close Of the open-air service one
Of his admirers approached him and
said, regretfully:
II don't suppose that you knew that
the editor of one of the big New York
Sunday papers was here when you
pulled off your coat"
81 reckon l knew 1t well, for I'd
been told of It," said the preacher,
calmly. II don't believe he's as bad
as he might be, and anyway, put my
coat on the chair close by and had 1t
right under my eye all the time
