A Great Ambition in Life.

The great life ambition of Edison
is to create things that are COM
mercially profitable and to give all
the people the benefit of his work.
He takes great pride in the phono-
graph, which has delighted so many
millions in all parts Of the world.
In the archives of the patent office
the records of his inventions repre-
sent shining chapters of government.
al department history. The many
legal contests that have been nee
essary to maintain his rights have
cost more than two million dollars,
and of themselves form a thrilling
story. He insists upon his rights
from start to finish, but is free
from petty iealousies. No one is
keener to accord credit to other in
ventors. He freely gives Marconi
the full credit of the wireless, al
though he had conducted experiments
and taken out patent many years
before on wireless telegraphy that
might have been followed to a sue
cessful conclusion along this line;
but it was not entirely completed as
far as commercial adaptation was
concerned Magazine.

Points TO be Considered

There are four points that should
be considered in selecting a school
to attend.
First: The schools financial stand
ing, for the student does not want
TO attend a school today that will
pass out of existence tomorrow. The
Tyler Commercial College of Ty-
Ter, Texas, has a paid-in capital and
surplus of over 100000. 1t is owned
and operated by men who have prov
en- themselves successful business
men,
Second: The moral surroundings.
Our teachers, twenty in number, are
highest character. We look after
our students while in school. and en-
courage them in honesty and up
Tightness.
Third: The systems and methods
used We use the famous Byrne
systems of shorthand and book
keeping, which enables us to turn
out a better bookkeeper OR stenog-
Tapher in half the time and at half
the cost of other schools teaching
other systems. We have the exclu-
sive control of these systems in
this state. Therefore, the Byrne
systems are case of "sour grapes"
to our competitors The fact that
We turn out better stenographers
In three months than they can in
six should interest the prospective
student. Read our catalog and see
the Endorsements from hundreds of
students and business men.
Fourth: Our ability to place you
In a good position with a respon-
sible firm. We realize that if we
hope to succeed, our students must
succeed; the greater their success,
the greater our success. Other
schools haven't the advantages of
our most modern systems, therefore
it is utterly impossible for them
to make a good stenographer or
bookkeeper of you in as short a
time as we can

Household Hints.

Heated knife-blade-You can spread
the hardest butter on the thinnest
bread by placing your knife in boil
ing water each time before using
the butter. New bread and cake
may be cut evenly if the knife-blade
be heated.
For scorched goods-If you should
scorch any uncolored goods, such as
linen, percale, ETC., dip instantly in
vinegar, then wash and rinse well.
To kill moths-Moths in carpets
can be killed by the use of damp
cloth and hot iron. Lay the cloth
on the carpet and iron well, and
the steam will destroy both eggs and
worms. Brush up the nap of the
carpet with Whisk broom as you
finish ironing each section.
For hand-run tucks-If you want
hand-run tuchs, crease the first tuck
as if for machine tucking and adjust
the tucker, but do not thread the
needle, then run the tucker; the
needle will leave a distinct line along
which to run your hand sewing; the
marker, also, leaves a line for the
next tuck; sew each tuck as, it comes
from the marker.
To protect fine plates-If it is
necessary to keep fine china plates
piled on top of one another, get
some large sheets of blotting paper
and cut cut round pieces a trifle
larger than the plates, place these
between each plate and you have
a splendid protection.

Remake Men by Transfer of organs.


Advertisements offering parts OF
living bodies to be used IN the sur
gical remaking of suffering men
women and children may yet become
at least as common as present day
announcements of blood transfusions
in view of experiments being car
ried on at the Harvard Medical
School in following out the ideas OF
DR.. Alexis Carol, of the Rockefeller
Institute His work, the essential
and delicate task of growing organic
tissues and keeping them alive after
they have been removed from the
body of (which they were a part,
has been repeated at the Harvard
Medical School by pupil conducting
researches under the direction of DR..
E. E. Tyzzer.
Tissues of tumor taken from a
mouse have been made to increase
and grow after having been placed
in a serum or natural plasm. This
experiment is the foundation of the
wonderful work which DR.. Carol
has done, and the reports from the
Harvard Medical School OF success
attending the artificial production OF
tissue points to a general study OF
the newest adjunct to surgery.
For reproducing here the expert
ment Of Dr.. Carol the experience of
DR.. Tyzzer has been especially fit
ting. He is a member of the cancer
commission and has been leader
in the cancer research work at Har-
ward, where he has specialized in
observing the growth of cancer tissue
in mice. 1t has long been expected
that the artificial growth of this It's
sue and its transfer from one mouse
to another will yet make clear the
secrets of this disease, with view
to its prevention and cure.
But now, with the tissue-growing
started by DR.. Carol, an entirely
new development of surgery is to
be expected. Although DR.. Tyzzer
is unwilling to prophesy what may
yet happen, the actual achievements
thus far show the scope of the good
that was to be expected to come
from it. In one line of the work, it
may be said, the ultimate result will
be an end of amputations as they
are known today. Instead, when
disease or accident necessitates the
of an arm or leg the sur
geon will graft on the stump a new
limb. DR.. Carols first successful
grating to be recorded was in the
case of a fox terrier. The leg of a
small dog that had just died was
grated to the stump of the leg of
the living dog. The bones knit and
the tissues grew together The dog
remained healthy.
That this may be done in the near
future in the case of human beings
is the natural inference, and in the
more complicated abdominal sur
gerry equally amazing results have
been obtained. Describing some of
these, DR.. Tyzzer says:
"a dog whose abdominal aorta
was replaced by a human femoral
artery is still alive in normal state.
The theoracic aorta of another ami
nal was replaced at the same time
oy a large vein that had been kept
several months in cold storage, and
he operation was a perfect sue
,eSS.'

Looking for Potash.

A search for potash has been in
stituted by the Department of Agri-
culture, and ten thousand dollars
has been appropriated by Secretary
Wilson to begin a campaign for
testing out certain regions of the
United States in which it is thought
the potash salts may exist. 1t is
popularity believed that the famous
Stassfurt potash fields of Germany
were formerly much the same as in
our own arid regions, and much Of
the investigation, therefore, will be
carried on in the vicinity of desert
basins.
Although it is estimated that the
Stassfurt mines could supply potash
to the whole world for half million
years to come, yet the German gov
eminent has put limit on the quota
that may be produced, thus making
the price prohibitive in many cases.
Because of the absolute necessity of
potash in agricultural pursuits, the
American farmer has been paying
the price set by Germany, but it is
believed that the governments search
through regions of Utah, Nevada and
Alabama may result in the discovery
Of potash fields that will at least
be of sufficient magnitude to supply
the home demand.
Furthermore, active Investigations
are in progress looking to the com
mercial extraction of potash from
the large deposits of certain rocks
occurring throughout the country and
other materials which are now use
less wastes from manufacturing en-
terprises, These Investigations are
in charge Of the Bureau of Soils.

TRUNKS and BAGGAGE Handled
Humble Heroisn1.

The pretty, fragile wife of the
hoy senator from Tennessee lay
on hospital cot, pallid and wan,
her life ebbing with every pulse
beat. 1t was a question of blood.
Some stronger physique must bleed
that she might live.
= By her side sat Luke Lea, the
young senator-strong, vigorous, red
blooded-waiting while chemists test
ed his blood to know whether he
was a fit subject of sacrifice to his
wife.
The clock licked. The little wo-
man on the cot went paler, and more
pale. The sands were running low.
All the manhood, all the force of
the protective instinct in Luke Lea,
strained for service, for succor. He
demanded that his veins should be
tapped. The surgeons consented. A
quick incision, and the red blood of
youthful athlete was flowing into
the arteries of his stricken wife.
Slowly the woman's white face
won back to a tinge of color. The
imperceptible pulse-beat strengthen
ed The surgeons wished to re-
move the tube from the husbands
arm. He demurred, insisting that
as much Of his blood should be TAX
en- as it was possible for him to
give. Finally, when the tube was
removed and the artery closed, he
fell back fainting in his chair.
In the light of this sturdy class,
the divorce problem is seen for the
excrescence that it is. The touch
ing incident of the Leas is resolved
into its proper function as the rose
colored incident to point moral and
adorn a tale.-Munsey' Magazine.

a Sensible Bill.

The whole south, Louisiana in
| particular, should be interested in
| the bill lately introduced in congress
by Representative R. c. Wickliffe,
of Louisiana, providing that all the
ment used by the government in
digging the Panama canal be trans
ferred to the war department, as
soon as the canal shall have been
finished, to be used in drainage
and wet land reclamation in the
United States, for dredging rivers
and harbors and for improving road
ways.
Representative Dupre, of Louisi-
ana, has already introduced a bill
providing that all money obtained
from the sale of public lands in
the southern states be set aside by
the government for the reclamation
of wet lands in those states. The
Wickliffe bill would be practical
without the Dupre bill, but, in con-
junction with it, gives our repre-
sentatives something well worth
fighting for.
Despite the fact that the i'm
mense area of unreclaimed wet
lands in the southern states can be
turned into the richest farm lands
at far less cost, the government
has spent much more money on the
arid deserts of the west This is
partly due to the fact that govern
ment land holdings in the southern
states are smaller than in the west,
and partly to lack of cooperative eff
fort on the part of our representa-
tives in congress-.
The Wickliffe bill, however, fur
nishes an excellent nucleus for a
definite campaign for federal aid in
the important work we have before
us.
The government has gone to i'm
mense expense to provide the vast
amount Of machinery needed to dig
the Panama canal The equipment
is presumably of the best. On the
isthmus there is now everything
needed to complete the projected
intercoastal canal along the Gulf of
Mexico, to dredge our almost navi-
gable bayous and rivers, to deepen
our harbors, to drain our sWamps
and marshes, and construct badly
needed roads through the reclaimed
territory The Wickliffe bill requires
the Panama Canal Commission to
make detailed report of all equip
ment, specifying exactly what will
no longer be needed at the canal,
and that all the unusable machinery
shall be turned over to the secretary
of war, who will cooperate with
the secretary of the interior in dis
tributing this equipment fairly where
ever it may be needed for reclama-
ton work throughout the United
States.
It seems to us that this is very
practical suggestion and that it
ought to appeal to all as the means
of putting expensive material to
practical use when it has fulfilled
the special purpose for which it was
purchased.
Every southern state is interest
ed, for every southern state has mil
lions of acres of wet land that
might be turned into productive ter
ritory for about So an acre. The
use of the canal apparatus would
cut down the cost of reclamation
enormously and hasten the work
far more rapidly than the most san
guine have hoped.-NeW Orleans
