steps will be taken both in this coun.

science called radioactivity.
Scientists have learned that urani-
UNI, the substance containing radiuni,
is actually alive. The life of radium
is estimated at $500 years. There is
spontaneous emission of rays which
look like little shooting stars. These
rays affect the Photographic plate.
The uranium atom not only affects
the Photographic plate, but II pro.
duces heat and ironizes the air. Scien.
lists are able to measure the energy
that comes from the atom.
Compare this marvellous metal with
gold, copper. silver, lead or iron.
They never change. They do not
emit rays. They are dead. Radum
has life as strange in flower or
moves in mollusk or breathes in

WHY FOAM Is WHITE.

No one can have failed to notice
that the foam along the shore of the
sea or OF lake Is white. No matter
how deep the blue of the water may
be, there is the same wilderness OF
the froth at its edge. II the blacklist
ink in the world is beaten into foam.
the foam will be as white as the froth
of milk.
The reason for this is that we see
all objects by reflected light. II they
reflect all the rays, they appear whit >.
If they absorb all the rays, they seem
10 be black. When beaten into froth
the bubbles reflect all the light from
their surfaces, for their extreme thin.
ness makes them practically nothing
but surface and thus they are white.
For the same reason any colored
stone shows white when it is ground
to powder. Take the blacklist mar.
bic and reduce it to small grains and
these will appear white, because their
surfaces now all reflect the same
light. If the polished surface of the
same marble be only little scratched
as with nail or drill-point the effect
will be light-colored streak.
The same point illustrated in the
appearance of the tiny particles OF
dew on the spiders web as compared
with the larger drops suspended from
the liz Of blades Of grass. All The
more striking is the difference when
the cold has converted dew and water
into frost and ice. The frost sparkles
from the innumerable faces of the

THE CORNER LoAFER.

It is a wonder that the corner loafer GOes not come in for as much notice as the end seat hog, since in all New England cities he is 8 constant men ace to the peace of mind of pedes- trians.
 The Providence Journal complains that the police there appear to be par ticularly tolerant of the obstructors of busy cts, but The Bulletin oues- tions whether Providence is any more tolerant of these loafers in proportion 10 her population than other cities.
 Speaking of conditions in Providence The Journal says:
 Tt is nothing short of disgraceful that women cannot walk down such a thoroughfare as Westminster stree. without running the risk Of gross insult from beings who in the eata- iogue go for men. Such offensive creatures cannot be too severely dealt with. No doubt the attempt to SUD- press them presents some difficulties, t1t these should not be insuperable 10 an intelligent and efficient police force"
 With a slight change this would fit a score of cities in New England. New England is more tolerant of many Eaameful conditions than are the cities of newer parts of the country.

CIRCULATION
THE 1912 SPELL OF WEATHER.

It cannot be denied that a fine open fall was followed by six weeks of ex- treme cold or close winter weather Both these periods were exceptional and phenomenal
 This not only applies to New Eng land, but to most of the country. The grip of frost extends all the way from Canada to the Gulf, Lake Superior be- ing frozen from shore to shore for the first time on record, and zero being registered as far south as Arkansas. Frosts in northern Florida are occas- ionaIly reported. but it is unusual for Miami, on the southeastern coast, to send such news. Even the balmy island of Bermuda complains of the cold.
 All the ice houses in New England are full, and the frost has gone into the ground, in several cities of this region, freezing the small water mains solid, and in getting at them the dig gers or trenches find the earth as firm and resistant as concrete.
 In spite of all this. it is safe to anticipate the opening of spring. The sun reaches the vernal equinox in it's northward journey on March 21, and from then on the grip of the frost will be less and less. The birds will soon be coming north and the song of he sparrow will be heard in March .0ming from sheltered coppices.

THE BAPrlsTs AS A FORGE.

The Baptists of the country must be recognized as a leading religious de- nomination when they all stand up to be counted; also when they come sta tistically to the front.
 The Christian Herald Almanac for 1912 contains the following interesting facts concerning this denomination:
 Tn the year 1911 the Baptists in the United States raised S25,979,911 for chuch work
 ''They own and control ten theolog- ical semlnaries, valued at $1,606, 100, with an endowment of $4,479, 4S3. They own and control ninety-three universi- ties and scolleges, valued at SS1,694,s76, with an endowment of $26,697,O19. They have 34,O99 students in their col leges and universities They own about one-eighth of all the college and university property in the United States and control one-ninth of the endowment funds.
 The Baptists own and control eight secondary schools, valued at $5,281, ,4OS, with an endowment fund of S1,SS3, ,4S1. They have in these schools 24,S44 stu dents.
 The Baptists in the United States have nearly S75.0OO,OOO invested in ed- ucational work.
 'The fifteen southern states have within their borders about 2,15o,Oo0 white Baptists.

BOSTON A ToP.LIMER.

IL Is so common for Boston to lead in matters of importance that the nation never is surprised to see Boston a, the front.
 Now Boston is again elated, as it has been elated over every national enter prise it has taken first place in since the days of the famous tea party" because the Hon. Joseph H. Choate. the chairman of the Dickens centenary fund, announces that Boston leads the way in the amount subscribed thus far. Of the total of $1O,0OO now available she has given more than any other American city.
 The Boston Post says: This is highly appropriate. Boston first greeted Dickens to these shores. He best liked her and her people. It is probable that no other city knows the man and his work so we'll Here should be manifested-as it is-the deepest feeling of gratitude for the hours of delight great genius has beQueathed.'
 There is some reason to doubt whether Boston does know Dickens so much better than other American cities; and this matter is likely to be disputed; but there is no taking from the Hub of the Universe" the honor of showing up the largest open purse!

POULTRY FOR MARKET.
Topic of Address by Willington Man
 at State Meeting in Hartford.

At the Connecticut Poultry asso- citation meeting at Hartford last week, George A. Cosgrove of Wilmington spoke on How a Connecticut farmer increases his profits by fattening poul- try for market" In beginning his talk he described his visit to a fat tening plant on the Palisades in New Jersey. The chickens were kept in close confinement and fed with a hose. They gained very rapidly in a few weeks.
 MT. Cosgrove described the cultiva- tion of corn in a field which had been freed by chickens of weed seeds. He told of his cultivation of corn in his fields in 1910 and 1911. He believed that the best way to fatten roosters for market is to keep them in a field of growing corn. They will keep the field free from weeds and while 1t is true the chickens will eat the blades of corn and the corn off the ears as their kernels begin to form, yet it is theirs," and they are growing fat and healthy, They get in the corn field grit from the ground and plenty of shade. About 400 chickens can be kept on an acre. MT. Cosgrove fed them other food and occasionally charcoal, which Is a great and excel lent absorber of foul gases,
 The corn blades, although picked off in long threads, does not get the fowls crop bound. There is no danger of chicken getting crop bound from eating growing grass when eaten alone. The danger is chiefly in the spring, when the fowl picks at the grass shoots and gets also the dead shreds of grass.
 The dead and dry grass balls up ln the crop, and if it cannot be passed out of the crop by manipulation, then a cutting operation is necessary. Green food and bulky food is essential to distend the crops. Hens will cal tree twigs or even anything bulky if they cannot get the right kind ol bulky food. They like to be full as we'll as human beings, It gives them a sense of we'll being.
 Chickens when small need a certain amount of dampness. Don't keep them confined too closely.
 There is no danger of hens learn ing to eat eggshells if the shells are pounded fine. To prevent a hen eat ing eggs or pulling feathers, MT. Cos grove sharpens a hens beak almost down to the quick so that when they start to peck an egg or pull feather it hurts and they stop. The beaR will grow out in a short time. If the hen persists it can be cut down again MT. Cosgrove says that he feeds his little chicks usually oatmeal anc hard boiled eggs made very fine. Il makes little difference what chickens eat if they are kept right otherwise.

When the big mission clock struck 8, Kate opened her eyes. She had slept for two hours; for six she had tossed and moaned almost in delirium, but now her hand was steady, and her face, if pale, showed no traces of her agony.
 T feel" said Kate aloud to herself, ''as if the world had come to an end and were the enly person left alive to. face the new dispensation."
 And her world had come to an end come to an end at 19.Se precisely the evening before, It was then that Rob ert had told her he was te marry Margaret Gray.
 At least she had kept her scorn to herself She was glad to remember that there had been nc scene. Only she knew, as nc one else on earth could knew, that Robert would not marry Margaret Gray-or that. if he did, he would 'Ieve her and leave her. in a time too short to be credible.
 It was strange situation. Nc one who knew of 1t understood 1t. Her Romeo,' she had sometimes called Robert to herself, in shamefaced hope, when he came to tell her of his un- happy love for Rosajine. And Rosa line, who flouted and laughed at this earnest eyed young lover-Rosaline, who knew him better than she, after all, perhaps-was Rates dear friend, the friend to whom she had clung through all her lonely life.
 It was through Resaline that she had met Robert, and he, seeing the sympa- thy in her face, had gradually formed the habit of telling her his sorrows, of asking her good offices in softening the heart of her friend. So long as he never suspected, what harm was it that she had learned to love him-to love him as, she knew now, he could never love anyone. There was no dis loyalty in her Iove-she had renounced him whom she had never had; had dedicated her heart and her life in giving him his Rosaline, if she lost them both in the giving, Well, she had been e pitiful Juliet!

He used all the fond, heart breaking little terms of endearment that he had given once, was it possible, only a month ago to Rosaline. It is part of mel" he cried exultingly. Kate had listened, cold grip on her heart. It was the very phrase that had killed her own poor hopes and made her pledge her love and herself to the cause of Rosa line.

Q.-Does the Bible teach return of the Jews to Palestine, and is that country large enough for all of Abra- hams descendants? (F. W)
 Answer-The Bible answer is Yes to both questions; (a) T will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and will bring you again into the land of Israel" ''fe shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers and ye shall be My peo- pie and ! will be your God" And they shall say. this land that was deso- late is become like the Garden of Eden (Ezekiel xxXvii, 12; xxxvi, 27 35). (b) What is known as the land of Palestine is but a very small part of the promised land, which is to stretch from the Nile to the Euphrates (Gene- sis xv, 1S) and appears to include Arabia as well as parts of Egypt and the Soudan, an area equal to the half of Europe.
