Who welcomes the traveller bone from

With JOY in her heart and love on her

Who nestles beside him and sweetly

His care-burdened thoughts with ca

Who frequently prays as she kneels
down to pack,
With tear brimming eyelids tie drum

That the Lord may watch over the
wandering feet.
Then bids him goodbye with a face
bravely sweet;
And when through the shadows his

Gives away to her sorrow in pitiful

1t is here for thousands of other people

consequent loss of time and business.
Every horse owner can buy and main

keep horse.
The others-if they are compelled by
business to cover large areas, earning
more money the quicker they cover
their territory-will find the Liberty
Brush cheaper than any public con-
yeyance, cheaper even than the trolley.
They can widen their territory, and in
crease their earning powers.
The pleasures of motoring are too

CHANGE IS WANTED
 IN PURE FOOD LAW
Amendments Are Proposed Regarding MisStatements
 Concerning Drugs

WASHINGTON, D. C., June g. Informal conferences will be held shortly by senators who wish to so amend the pure food and drug act of 1906 as to make it apply to mis- statements about the curative effect of medicines, as well as misstate- ments about the ingredients.
 The supreme court of the United States on May 2s. held that the law did not prohibit misstatements as to curative effects. No amendment to the act has yet been introduced in the senate for the reason that sena- tors desired to read the dissenting opinion of Justice Hughes, which was not available until today. It is prob able that Senator McCumber of North Dakota will introduce the amendment.
 In his opinion. Justice Hughes de clares it is plain that congress in tended that the law should prohibit downright falsehoods" in regard to the curative effect of medicines, but not matters of opinion or the con trariety of views among medical prac- tictioners

 Matelot, the keeper of the light, while changing the revolving lamp, was stricken with illness. He con tinued his work until he was carried by his wife in a dying condition Jn his bed. The woman was unable to abandon her post and sent her four children to seek help.
 As dusk came on she mounted the tower to light the lamp, and re- turned just in time to hear her husbands dying words. One of the children discovered that the light was not turning. and the woman realizing the danger of disaster tu mariners who might mistake Eer donis for other fixed lights, worked vainly for an hour to repair the mechanism. Finally she set the two eldest children. aged and 10 to work and throughout the night with a fierce storm raging, they turned the heavy lamp with theil puny strength.

135 U. s. Cities Ruled by
 Commission Govern lent

In one of his speeches in Seattle Governor Woodrow Wilson spoke of the strong tendency of American cities to adopt the commission form Of government in spite of the fact that the change from the old form of municipal government was revolu- tionary in character.
 The New York Evening Post calls attention to the fact that today about two and one-half millions of people in 135 cities scattered through twen- ty five different states are now living under some form Of commission gov. ernment. Most of the cities which have adopted this form of govern ment have a population of less than 5O.000; but some of them, such as Dallas, Spokane, Tacoma, Oakland, Memphis and Lynn. have a larger population, and so far the plan has worked as well in these larger cities as Tn the smaller cities.
 except m Massachusetts and New Jersey the commission plan of city government has not been popular in the Eastern States. But Buffalo is now considering a change in it's charter. which if adopted will put that city in the commission column, and if Q city of Buffalos size should ind this form of government an i'm pTovement over the old form it will give increased impetus to the new movement in American cities.
 The people are demanding greater efficiency in city government. and they seem to realize that the degree of efficiency which they demand and need can be had only by changing from the old cumbersome system of government to the newer form where the control of municipal affairs will be in the hands of a few able and responsible men. It is not an un- democratic tendency. It is not in any actual sense q change from the representative character of govern. ment. for a commission composed oi three or i've men may be and usually is as truly representative as a larger body would be- The plain fact is that our government has in too many instances under the old regime been wholly unrepresentative in charac ter. and that is one explanation of the present pronounced tendency to-
 ward the commission form of gov Crnment.

THE WORK OF THE HEART
 STATIONS"

For more than half a century it has been known that every muscular
 movement including the rhythmic
 muscular action of the heart, hber- ated small electrical currents. The
 problem has been to obtain some means to record these currents, as
 they would give a very valuable clue
 to the many changes which might
 take place in the contraction of the heart. Therefore men of science
 have for many years been trying
 to devise some instrument which
 would serve this purpose. It remained for W. Eintuoven. a Dutch Dhysiol- ogist at Leyden, to supply this need. when he devised, in 1903. what
 is termed the string galvanometer This forms the essential part of the "electrocardigraph' as the apparatus for recording the heart currents is called. In the past two years so called heart stations" where this work is done have been established in four places in this country. One | in Baltimore at the Johns Hopkins hospital and three Tn New York al l te Presbyterian. NJ. Sanai, and 1 Rockefeller hospitals. The remark able apparatus and it's operation are described. with illustrations ir Ithe June Popular Mechanics Maga zine.
