A HUMANE LAW

A law has been passed by the Penn
sylvania legislature to pension wild
ows and abandoned wives who have
families whom they are unable to
maintain. A commission of women
has been appointed to carry out the
provisions of the law.
The trustees are to investigate all
cases and may recommend payments
to an abandoned mother or widow
who is unable to maintain her chill
dren at home. Payments are to be
made monthly. and the combined max
imum shall not exceed $12 a month
for one child, $40 a month for two
children, s25 month for three chill
dren, and s. month for each addi-
tional child.
For the purpose of the new law an
appropriation of 100000 is made.

cover the seas.
The trouble is the followers of the
cross are untrue to their professions
of faith; they breathe the spirit of
war more than the spirit of peace;
they cry peace and act war, and per-
nit the red flag of the battle field to
usurp and obliterate the white folds
of the flag of the "Prince of Peace"
Think of it. The great American
nation asking for an annual apprO-
priation of two hundred millions with
which alone to build battleships.
Why should wars not cease?
Washington said:
ct is time for knight-errantry and
mad heroism TO be at an end"
Charles Sumner said:
There can be no peace which is
not honorable. and there can be no
war that is not dishOnorable.'
Franklin said
when will human nature be suffi-
GENTLY improved to see the advantage
of settling disputes without first cut
ting one another's throats?"
jefferson said:
"War is an instrument entirely in
efficient towards redeeming wrongs :;
it multiplies instead of indemnifying
! losses"
Claiming proclaimed that the song
of the angel, On Earth Peace will
not always sound as a fiction"
Grant said:
Let us have peace"
AS long as we glory in the heroism
of war and eXtoll the man in eppau-
lettes we cannot expect the peace
crop to be large, wholesome or popu-
| lar.

If we teach arms we must reap bat

grow on thistles.

A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

No man can do business in New
York City as a commission merchant
hereafter without registering, pro-
curing a license to do such business,
and giving bond in the sum of $4,000
to conduct his business honestly. Fur
thermore, he will not be granted a Ii
cense as commission merchant I'M
til he has satisfied the state commits
sioner of agriculture that he is hon
est and trustworthy. This license
can be revoked by the commissioner
of agriculture whenever it is shown to
him that the licensee has been guilty
of a dishonest or shady transaction.
Amy person believing himself to
have been wronged by New York
commission merchant, a Vegetable or
fruit grower of Florida for instance,
has only to complain to the commits
sioner of agriculture at Albany, \. Y.
and furnish proof Of the commission
merchants wrong doing. If the evil
dence sustains the charge. the com
mission merchant is put out of bust
ness entirely, and will be sued on his
bond for the amount of which he has
defrauded the grower or shipper. 1t
does not matter if the amount of over
charge or other fraud is only a trife,
the offending merchant will lose his
license and must close up his place of
business.
Such are the provisions of the Cole
bill, which passed the New York sen
ate, and became a law by the sigma
tureof Governor Sulzer.-Times-U Tn
ion.

THE "INVISlBLE' MADE TREMEN
DOUSLY VISIBLE"

1t sounds a little queer when one
says that invisible objects" are pho
tOgraphed and shown in moving pic
ture shows, but such are the facts ac-
cording to Edgar Lucien Larken. We
make a quotation from one OF his re-
cen tarticles:
The Arabian Nights people are
eclipsed. Thus, put a drop of stag
nant water on glass. lay thin pla.e
upon it, press down, and the layer of
water will be thin, indeed. Put it I'M
der the microscope, turn bright light
through the layer, pass this light into
the very small camera, and let it fall
on prepared moving film; then the
amazing effect of animals in motion is
to be fixed on film that is itself in
motion. This film long strip. is
then placed on rollers and unwound,
so that it will pass powerful project
ing lenses in moving picture out
fit"
Then he goes on to say:
This is, indeed, photographing the
unknown. Since man appeared on
earth no such aid to refined research
into natures labyrinths has been dis
covered. Then a large audience can
see all there is in a minute drop of
water, on a screen, from ten to six
teen feet in diameter. Totally invisi-
bic creatures be come monsters and
move with great rapidity before the
eyes of the people. Thousands of new
species of minute living organisms
are rescued from realms of the I'M
known

Then he goes on to say:

Tallahassee press correspondents
say that Governor Trammells convict
lease bill will have a rocky" time
passing the senate. as the senate has
a convict lease bill of its own, which
many of the senators seem to think is
a better bill. The senate bill was
drawn by Mr.. B. H. Lindsay. chairman
OF the committee, who has had years
Of experience in handling convicts,
and Mr.. Y. l.. Wilson, a lawyer of
ability, who has given the subject
much thought and consideration.

WHAT OF THE FUTURE?

Every day the art of navigation is
being improved on land, and sea and
air.
We observed only yesterday that
a party of seven were conveyed in an
air-ship, without stopping and with
out accident, for a distance of eighty
miles.
What will it be in the years to
come?
And see what an evolution has been
going on in sea navigation. Our ships
that pillow the seas are supplied with
all the appliances and conveniences
of a modern hotel, and in luxury and
comfort our hotels have exceeded the
most eXtravagant imaginations Of DR.
Sam Johnson and his companions who
so extolled the excellencies Of these
abodes.
And what of the change in the
mode of travel on our surface roads
The whole earth will soon be grid
ironed with smooth surface roads
and as fast as the roads improve the
style and mechanism of the automo
biles will be improved.
AS an index to what is coming, We
find the following in one of our rail
way magazines:
The most luxurious curing cal
ever built was recently constructed
by the president of a Canadian auto
mobile company. 1t looks like a Pull
man car, and has sleeping accommo
! dations for nine persons, including
! two servants. For short trips, il
which sleeping quarters are not re
Quired, it accommodates twenty-five
persons.
/ The car contains chauffeur's quar-
ters, a ladies' staterOom, six fee
square, with berths for five people,
"a second staterOOm, of the same di
mansions. providing for four; a kitch
enette and tOiletroom. Besides this
there is an observation platform al
the rear. The central stateroOm is
the dining room as well, having two
! three-fOot extension tables with {
width of nineteen inches while {
! folding desk makes it convenient fol
! correspondence The kitchenette is
equipped with complete outfit fol
preparing and serving meals, even .
refrigerator being included. The
! crockery is protected from breaking
! by separate compartments for every
piece"
/ Our railways, trolley lines. elevated
and underground railways Will be con
stantly improved, and our motorcy
/ cles will not be overlooked.
I The manner and different styles o.
locomotion will be the luxury of the
future.
Men will fly the air like birds and
travel on land and sea will be as soft
and luxurious as downy pillows are
/ Living in the future will be great,

Despite the fact that the pure food
bill, prepared by State Chemist Rose,
had the endorsement of all wholcsal-

friends of the original measure de-
clare it will thwart the efforts to
enforce pure food regulations in this
state.
