to Tom Mann as he talked to the writer
a few days ago:
People do not seem to realize the inn
portance of the recent Liverpool strikes
he said. The public thinks, because It
hears no more Of them in the newspa-
pers, that they are things of the past.
AS a matter of fact, those strikes were
but the first Of long series which will
tie up the industries Of this country from
one end to the other. One result Of the
Liverpool strikes is that the masters are
paying the men $4,000 a week more in
wages. Do you suppose that other work.
ers are not going to take their cue from
that? Do you suppose we are going to
be satisfied with that small concession?
Il am out TO smash the labor party
into a thousand bits before this year
draws to a close. The rank and file of
the labor men now realize that although
ment for more than thirty years no set
Of workmen gained as much in that whole
time as the lockers of Liverpool gained
in a few days by the simple means of a
well organized strike. l am out for the
social revolution and the formation of
the cooperative socialist state, which is
the aim Of the present industrial union
list movement. And l have behind me
hundreds Of thousands of workingmen
throughout the country"

The instruments that they carry often

chine by means of which he can reg
lister thessvaiue of a food taken into the
human system as accurately as may be
weighed a bucket of coal. He does this
through the use of that remarkable in
strument, the calorimeter. The ca
lorimeter is a complicated instrument
devised for the purposes Of measuring
the forces of man. 1t is built on the
plan Of large refrigerator, with the idea
of excluding from it all such influences
of the outside world as heat moisture,
instruments in the world which register
any change Of condition within it.

The exact conditions of a man. his
weight. strength, vitality. food content
and all manner of things with relation
to his condition are ascertaned He is
put in the calolimeter and fed a pound
of cheese. He is given four hours hard
work riding machine resembling a hi
cycle, and called an engometer, which
measures the amount of energy he ex-
ponds upon it. Then he is taken out.
If his weight and general condition are
the same as when he went into the ma
chine, then a pound of cheese is equal to
the amount of energy he has expended
upon his dummy bicycle. He may be
given pound of beefsteak and put
through the same PAGES. If he is not
in good condition after expanding the
same amount of energy, then the beef
steak has not produced as much energy
as has the cheese.
Upon this principle it is possible to test
the relative energy producing qualities of
all manner of foods. This example is.

work of the calorimeter. One of the main
principles upon which it is worked is that

this way fertilize given flowers that their

fertilization did not take place the seed
would not grow. 1t would not take place

Prof H. c.. Gore of the bureau OF chem

problem of removing the quicker from

simmons before the coming Of the frosts
and their subsequent soften1nS. Inc jap

mons of their pucker. Prof. Gore was
assigned the task of discovering the Sc
cret of that method.
The first key to the Japanese method
came with the discovery that the persim-
mons Of that country were packed in
sake casks and kept there for some time
before use. Prof. Gore secured some of
these casks and sealed American persim-
mons fIr them. Presto! the pucker dis
appeared. Prof. Gore, however decided
to go further and discover the scientific
secret back of this change. He at

These being the admitted facts concerning
