What the American people want
is efficient service, Particularly
is this true OF the postal system.
In order to get the most efficient
service 1t is going to be, in my
opinion, necessary to increase the
salaries of the rural free deliv-
cry carriers, as well as the sala-
ries of the postmasters, and l
have proposed that the compen-
sation Of the carriers be fixed at
$500 year.
The carriers, as general rule,
are good and efficient men of
high type. The salaries now being
received by them are not suffi-
cient to meet the demands that
confront them. They are unable
to keep up themselves, their fam
lilies, their horses and their vehi-
cles. The city mail carriers, pro-
portionately speaking. receive
much better salaries. and people

The Heroic Green Mountain Boys
BY REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

n N the 18th day of February,
~ 1881, Congress, without de-
bate or one dissenting
voice, passed an act declaring
that on the fourth day of March
next, the said State, by the name
and style of the State of Yer
mont, shall be received into this
Union as a new and entire mem
Der Of the United States OF Amer
ica."
Thus closed one of the most
z interesting stories in our Ameri-
can history-a story full of all the
qualities and inspirations that
gladden. and thrill the human
heart No other American Com
monwealth has a history like that
of Vermont. From the very be-
ginning of her existence the
Green Mountain people may be
said to have formed a hollow
square against the world" On one
side Of the square were the saw
age red men, on another the New
Workers, on still another the men
of New Hampshire, and then the
British. Against these foes Yer
mont fought. tooth and nail, for
more than half century.

AZ Arizona man writes that
n he has found some rock
which puzzles everybody
around there (where rocks are
commonly regarded with an in
terrogating eye that would sur
prise a North Georgia farmer),
and he wants to know now he
can test the correctness of his
suspicion that it contains radium.
There is no better way than TO
call in the aid of a photographer,
unless you happen yourself to be
an amateur in photography, in
which case you have the whole
secret in your own hands and
need no confidant Here is the
process that the United States
Bureau of Mines advises:
Take a Photographic plate and
wrap it in two thicknesses Of
black paper. This of course, is
to be done in dark room. On
top of the wrapped-up plate lay
a key, or coin, or any metallic
object possessing a characteristic
outline-the key is usually en-
ployed. Then suspend directly
over the key a specimen of the
suspected rock, or ore, weighing
at least two or three ounces. Do
not let it press upon the key or
the plate.
Finally put the entire apparatus
inside a light tight box. OF
course, the whole proceeding must
take place in the dark room,
WIFI IlO Ahbil
that furnished by a photogra-
piers red light, and as little as
possible of that. Leave the box
untouched for three or four days;
then unwrap the plate and de-
velop it in the ordinary way. If
your rock contains any appre-
ciable amount of radium you will
find on the plate an outline pic
ture, or profile. Of the key, or
whatever metallic object you may
have used. 1t will be more or
less sharply impressed according
to the quantity of radium pres
emit
If no metallic object were used,
the effect of suspending the ore
above the plate, or letting it lie
upon it, would be to produce a
general darkening Of the plate

when it was developed. Such \
darkening might be produced by
an accidental exposure to light.
The reason for using the key is
that the rays from the radium are
mostly intercepted by the metal.
so that underneath it the plate is
unaffected, and when developed

light upon dark background. II
you get such a picture after sper-
forming the experiment just de-
scribed with proper precaution
YOU may be sure that there is ra-
dunn in your ore.
But to extract the radium-that
is quite another question! Until
recently all the radium ore found
in the United States has been
sent to Europe TO be treated. Now
a method of extraction has been
invented here, and we may hence
forth extract our radium at home.
At best the processes are long,
complicated, tedious and costly,
If you should discover an ore
containing less than one ten-mii-
lionth per cent of gold you would
hardly expect to make a fortune
out Of it! You would let it alone,
and look for something more prof
liable. But that is about the per
centage of radium found in pitch
blende, one of the most produc-
tive radium ores known. A ton
of pitchblende contains about one
milligram (say, one thirty-thou
sandth Of an ounce of radium. 1t
has been estimated by sober rea-
soners that the total quantity Of
radium in all the known radium
ore deposits in this country does
not exceed six ounces! On the
other hand, certain enthusiastic
calculators have asserted that
Colorado alone contains far more
than that. But what do you think
that their top estimate for the
Colorado total is? TEN OUNCEsi
