DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ARC
AND lNCANDESCENT LAMPS

N ally everyone knows that there
~ t@o distinct types of electric
Inns, the are lamp and the incandes-
cent lamp, but few can tell the exact
difference between the two.
There is a vast difference between
these two types of lamps, even if they
do obtain their light from the same
source. They differ in principle, in
brilliancy and III the mode of use.
Years ago it was noted that if the
electric circuit was broken the current
would jump across a slight gap, pro-
duci"g a brilliant flame The shape
of this flame was a rough arc from
one conductor to the other and thus
the word arc" was odopted All arc
lamps burn in the air and not in
vacuum. The light is produced by the
current leaping across a small air gap

To Tell Fresh Fruit.

Some of the signs by which to tell
good fruit and vegetables are here in
dictated:
Oranges are sound and juicy when
heavy, but not too hard. Radishes and
turnips when spongy are not fit to
eat. Pineapples are best when the
edges of the top are smooth; in infe-
rior qualities the tops are of the saw
edged variety. Celery is good when
it breaks without much bending. As
paragus should be quite stiff Nuts
cannot be judged very correctly until
they are opened, but they should be of
good weight and not too hard to crack.

French Pancakes,

Beat separately the whites and

Il cupful of -four, pinch of salt, the
grated rind of lemon and a tea
spoonful of melted butter. Fry in
small pancakes, turning once; then
spread each with little fruit jelly,
roll into a cone and sprinkle with
powdered sugar.
A plentiful dish of these delectable
goodies would amply compensate for
a light meal. The pancakes are eaten
piping hot and are as much liked by
the grown-ups as by children.

of the principals In an exciting hunt.
Ing incident this week. Hamlin ran
onto a large black bear suddenly; the
hunter was cool enough to get good
standing shot at the bear and to all
appearances killed the animal.
Upon going up to examine his prize
victim, which had fallen as II quite
dead, Hamlin was taken of his guard
by Bruin effecting a quick and unex.

The bear reared in an attempt to
embrace the hunter. who was leaning
over him to examine the effects of his
shot, At this unexpected maneuver
Hamlin beat a hasty retreat with the
bear in close pursuit At times the
bear was so close as to snatch at the
retreating Nimrod's coattails. Coming
to a thicket the hunter was able to
elude the bear and with another shot

come possessed OF their slaves In a

erful part OF the people. And when
the people once learn the cunning
game that has been so systematically
played upon them for centuries, and
by which the products of their labor
have been filched from them even
before coming into their possession,
the probability is that they will re-
fuse to recognize the ownership Of
property by any man to be used by
him as a means OF exploiting labor
But don't the capitalists use the
mines and factories when they start
them up and give the workmen en-
ployment?
Yes, they use them; but use them
by proxy. They use them by hiring
others to use them, and take care
that they keep back portion OF

duces Each wage worker necessari-
ily labors part of each working day

wages But he does not stop at this.
IL he did no more than produce the
equivalent of his wages there would
be nothing for his employer. He
must therefore perform a greater or
less amount OF work for which he
gets no pay, and 1t is this unpaid
work which makes his employer
wealthy and keeps him in a proper
tyless condition. 1t would be more
nearly exact to say that the capita
lists use the workers, and the work
man who once understands this nat
urally objects to being used like a
slave or draft horse.
But don't the machines do much OF
this work which you credit to human
workers?
Yes: but II was the workers, not
the capitalists, who made the ma
chiens. A capitalist may be insistent
on the theory that his machines make
much of his wealth, but he Is as
reluctant to pay the machines more
than the oil and repairs required to
keep them in running order as he
is to pay the workers more than the
equivalent of what is required TO
keep them in running or working or
der. Machines are themselves the re-
suit of labor previously performed;
md, economically considered amount
only to accumulation of value which
they give up and transfer to their
products as they wear out. Whatey-
er help machinery may render in the
making of things should be credited
to labor, which made the machines
as well as all other commodities.
