Whoever has applied q moietened
finger to a piece of frosty metal in

experience thereby gained OF the fact
that cold, as well as heat. can blister

burned himself with colo several
times, and the effects were SO re-
markable. says Harper's Weekly, that
he deemed them worthy of description
to a body of scientific men.
1t appears that there are Two kinds
or degrees Of cold burn. In the case
Of the less severe burns the skin
at first turns red, but becomes blue
the next day. The inhamed spot
swells, and period, varying from a
month to six weeks, elapses before the
wound heals.
When the contact with the,eold sub
stance is longer and more complete.
9 burn of the second degree is pro
duced. A malignant and stubborn
wound is formed, and the process OF
healing is very slow.
A drop of LIQUID air falling on Pic
tets hand, produced a cold burn which
did not completely heal in six months.
while a scorch from heat, accidentally
inflicted on the same hand and nearly
at the same time, was healed in ten
or twelve days.

ACHIEVE SUCCESS BY STAGES
Elevation 60 Leadership ls On a Basis
Of Prestige, and Must Be

As soon as a certain number of liv-
ing beings are gathered together,
whether they be animals or men, they
place themselves instinctiveIy under
the authority of chief
. AS enthusiasm becomes infiamed, IL
happens most often that the then lead
er is he who started as one of the led.
He has himself been hypnotized by
the idea whose apostle he has since
become. 1t has taken possession OF
him to such degree that everything
outside II vanishes, and every con-
trary opinion appears to him an error
or a superstition. In time by afffrma-
ton, repetition and contagion great
power is given to his ideas, and he &C
quires that mysterious force known as
prestige. Every successful man,
every idea that forces itself into recog-
milton, ceases ipso facto to be called
In question.
The proof that success is one of the
principal stepping stones to prestige
is that the disappearance of one is al
most always followed by the disap-
pearance of the other. The hero whom
the crowd acclaimed yesterday is in
suited today. should he be overtaken
by failure. The reaction indeed will
be the stronger in proportion as the
prestige has been great.-LeBon, In

How Old Is a RELIEF

How old must a relic be to pos
sess historical Importance? The dis
cussion of the fate of the old assay
office suggests the question. Mr.. r.
H. Hall of the Scenic and Historic
Preservation society, who as a pro-
fessional saver of relics may perhaps
qualify as an expert, says that the
assay Office lis not even a hundred
years old. and l think a building
should be at least that old to have
much historic value" Obviously,
however. the strict application of this
rule to determine the claims of any
building to preservation would mean,
IN rapidly changing and developing
community, the destruction Of practi-
cally everything of present moderate
and future great historic interest Con-
servation of potential relics is neces-
sary IL we are to have real ones. II
q thing must endure it's full century
before 1t begins to be regarded as
venerable there is very little chance
in this country of its ever becoming
venerable at all The rule would
send it to the dump heap at ninety
without remorse, even If its character
were such that, had the march of
business been ten years slower, IL
would have come to be treasured in
the relic class.-New York Tribune.

Aa an owner should Re.

Whilst 1t is each mans interest that
not only ease and convenience of liv-
ing, but also wealth or surplus prod
ucts shoaId exist somewhere. it need
not be in his hands. Often it is very
undesirable to him. Goethe said well:
Nobody should be rich but those who
understand It," Some men are born
to own, and can animate all their
possessions. Others cannot; their
owning is not graceful-seems to be
a compromise OF their character;
they seem to steal their own divi-
dends.. They should own who can ad'
minister. not they who hoard and con-
ceal; not they who, the great pro-
prietors they are, are only the great
er beggars, but they whose work
carves out work for more, opens
path for all. For he Is the rich man
in whom the people are rich: and he
is the poor man in whom the people
are poor.-Emerson.
