MEatfnueU of Metals.

Recent experiments confirm the
earlier observations, following the dis
coveries of Hertz, on the fatigue" in
duced in metals by the continued &C
ton of the ultraviolet rays OF light.
This fatigue affects the capacity OF
metals for photo-electric effects. The
observations of Stanley Allen Of the
fatigue of zinc indicate that the appli-
cation of the longer light-waves brings
about a CERTAIN amount of recovery OF
photo-electric activity. These results,
although primarily of technical inter
est only. possess considerable practi-
cal importance-Popular Electricity.

carIyIe's caustIc Tongue.

A delightful Carlyle story is told in
connection with the painting of the
portrait of Carlyle by Sir John Millals
which was slashed by a militant suf'
fragette in the National Portrait gal,
lery, London.
The portrait was painted in 1877 at
the home of Millais. Carlyle and his
niece, who accompanied him, were
both impressed with the magnificence
of the furnishings and the objects OF
art with which it was filled.
And does all this-er-come from a
paint pot?" queried the niece. The art
list replied in the affirmative. Then
this characteristic comment came from
Carlyle:
"Ah, we'll, it shows what a number
of fools there are in the world.
Only three sittings were given and
the picture is classed as "unfinished.'
Maybe that remark is the reason why
it was never completed.

Creamy Cocoa.

To make a delicious, creamy cup OF
cocoa or chocolate, add a pinch OF
salt to the usual ingredients. When
the whole comes to a boil beat with
a Dover egg beater for two minutes;
the scum, which is so unsightly and
distasteful, will not form. A marsh,
mallow placed in each cup before pour
ing the cocoa rises to the top and
takes the place Of whipped cream as
we'll as giving a delightful flavor.

The trouble.

DR.. Anna Howard Shaw, the we'll
known suffragist, recently refused to
marry young woman who wanted the
phrase ito obey" used in her wedding
ceremony. Doctor Shaw believes that
the VOW to obey, made by the modern
woman of culture and action, is both
impossible and degrading.
But don't think" said Doctor Shaw
the other day in Philadelphia-"don't
think I'm cynic as regards marriage
Oh, no! If you're looking for cynics,
go to the other camp, the camp of the
ants and reactionaries.
Il heard an anti say the other day:
"'The trouble with marriage is that
a woman believes all man says to
her before the wedding, and nothing
he says after it. ("
