the future since The Pioneers self

Websterian 1912 Dictionaries, Illus

Children's questions should never
be ignored. Impatient parents con-
stantly bar the pathway of learning
to little questioners anxious to learn.
There is a way to save your patience
and provide for the children's in
struction as we'll. Let the dictionary
tutor your tots.
Children's encyclopedias are the
latest fad among the wealthy classes,
where the Importance of letting the
coming generation learn by looking
up the answers to it's own queries is
recognized. Children's encyclopedias
are very expensive and very cumber-
some, and the New Websterian 1912
Dictionary suits the purpose we'll and
requires far less expenditure and far
less space.
Your sons and daughters, nieces
and nenhews, in fact every person in
whose welfare you are interested,
should have this beautifully bound
and comprehensive illustrated mine
of ready reference information al
ways at hand. The colored plates are
particularly we'll suited for the in
struction of the children and the for
nation of young ideas through the
fund of information of which they
form part.
No thumbing over big volumes, no
back-breaking bending over book
stand or book shelves, no dictionary
that would seem to require a derrick
to lift it. The concise compilation
of information obtained through
years of studious effort by eminent
scholars is always at hand.
This dictionary is not published by
the original publishers of Webster's
Dictionary or by their successors.
There are three different styles Of
binding. First, there is the 81 full
limp leather edition, flexible, printed
on Bible paper, with red edges and
rounded corners. Besides the regular
contents, revised to date by the best
authorities, the volume contains more
than 900 illustrations, many of them
on rich color plates, and 16 pages of
valuable and official charts All of
this for six consecutive dictionary
coupons and SO cents.
Then there is the regular So edi-
ton, which is exactly the same as
the 81 book, except that it is bound
in half leather, with olive edges and
square corners. It contains all the
maps, charts, color plates, etc. A
copy of this may be had for six con-
secutive coupons and 81 cents.
The third edition is So copy on
the market 1t is plain cloth bind
ing, with the same paper and the
same illustrations as the other edi-
tions, but with the color plates and
charts omitted. This may be had for
six consecutive coupons and 48
cents.
Any book ordered by mail will be
% cents extra for postage.

When some countenances are subjected

fact of human perversity seems clear,
and the observer is apt to realize that ne
is living in a strange and awful world.
We may slip along through the daily
routine without being appalled, by these
facial evidence because the living coun-
tenance in most cases is animated by
constantly changing play of emotions,
lending concealment TO depravity and

rom the journal OF surgery.
One of the most remarkable actions
of light has recently come to our at
tention In an address before the Boston
Physo-T Therapeutic Society DR.. L. G.
Titus has demonstrated that blue light
possessed remarkable anesthetic power.
In his experiments he used a series of
slender glass rods about one-eighth of an
inch in thickness, placed side by side and
tied together SO as to form a kind or
flexible mat which will adapt itself TO
various parts of the body. The glass
must be of cobalt blue and transmit no
red rays, this being very important

the area to be anesthetized, and some

lasts for one-haIf hour or more, and has
occurred so constantly that there is no
reason TO believe that it is the result OF
suggestion or accident. Minor surgical
operations have been performed under
this method and without the least pain or
discomfort, and there seems to De enough
in it to merit attention.
More than thirty years ago mere pre-

FAULTY HYGIENE IN COUNTRY.

in society.
He arrived about tea time. and after
the introductions the lady of the house
said to her daughter: Give M de Bal

gave the young lady "a start, with the
result that the teacup and plate fell to

that she fed from the room. Some time
later she became the noveiists wife.

But for some undiscovered reason the
