AT this writing the great Exposition
is under full swing, and IL you have
not already made plans to see it early
you should do so at once. Now is the
time to visit the Exposition and the
great Pacific coast region and, in so
doing, to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity to make the most wonderful
journey in the world in the most won
derful country on earth, the United
States of America, under more favora-
BILE conditions of routing and travel
than have ever prevailed before. The
railroads are reducing rates from ev-
cry part of America. and the low
round trip rates will enable the visitor
to come by one route and return by an
other. Thus you see the same parts Of
the country but once, and both your
going and returning journeys are new
and distinct travel trips.

San Francisco you will, of course. wish
to find accommodations without unnec-

some accommodations necessarily much
more expensive than others, you will
be able to secure room at q dollar a

classes of children. A great purpose
of the Exposition is to show not only
results and finished products, but the
methods, processes and principles by
which results are achieved. In the ex-
hibit palaces and state buildings mo-
ton pictures are freely employed with
this object in view. There are forty
three free ctnematograph shows upon
the Exposition grounds, and, by the
way, there is no charge to enter the
exhibit palaces. Once you have enter
ed the Exposition grounds all the dis
plays of the states and nations are
spread before you. In the great Aus

MUM every part OF Luo WOrIC
visitors are thronging to the
great Exposition at San Fran
cisco. The Exposition there is
the most comprehensive and interest
will probably be the last to be held
within the present generation. Now

it possible for a man in New York city
to deliver an address through the tele-

voice vibrations is increased to such an
extent that, although the orator may
deliver his address in low voice into
the telephone in New York, in Sau

sound in volume sufficient to fill large

REFUTES THE CANAL THEORY
Member Of British Astronomical AS
ISOLATION Takes Issue With Sci
entists Concerning Mars.

According to the report on the 1909
opposition of Mars, published by the
section for the observation of Mars
OF the British Astronomical associa-
tion, under the direction of e. M. An
toniadi, the alleged existence of a
geometrical network of canals on
Mars has received lasting and un-
answerable confutation." Mr.. Anton
iadi had the advantage of using on
Mars the great Meudon refractor, the
most powerful telescope in the Old
World. In working with smaller in
struments he himself had, like other
observers, obtained frequent glimpses
OF narrow, straight lines, but in the
Meudon instrument these lines were
seen only when the definition was
bad and the image of the planet "flar-
ing" With good seeing, a complex
natural structure Of the so-called CON
tinentar regions of the planet was re-
vealed, a variety of irregular bands
and shadings, replacing the sharp, mar
row lines drawn by Schiaparelli, Low
ell and others. Mr.. Antoniadi pro-
nounces the geometrical lines, and al
SO the doubling of the lines, mere op-
tical illusions, and presents large
number of his own drawings side by
side with those made of the same reg
ions by Schiaparelli and Lowell, in
support of this contention. He notes
that the markings which Schiaparelli
only glimpsed with his modest 8k-
inch refractor were held quite steadily
in the 32%- inch refractor at Meudop.

Sulphuric Acid.

In recent years sulphuric acid has
assumed such great Importance in an
Industrial and commercial way that
statistics showing the production are
now given out annually by the United
States geological survey. This mate
rial is probably used in greater va
riety of ways in the chemical arts
than any other substance. The most
important classes of industry in which
the consumption of sulphuric acid is
involved are the manufacture of fer
tilizers, the refining of petroleum
products, the iron, steel and coke in
dustries, the manufacture of nitro
glycerin, celluloid and similar prod
ucts, and in general metallurgical and
chemical practice.

EARLY ROMAN CHRISTMASES
No Special Ceremonies for Christ Fig
ured More as Historic Being
Than World Savior.

The early Roman Christmas, says ].
A Symonds, probably kept Christmas
with no special ceremonies. Christ
was as yet too close to them He had
not become the glorious creature of
their fancy, but was partly historic
being, partly confused in their imagi-
nation with "reminiscences of pagan
deities. AS the Good Shepherd, and as
Orpheus. we find him painted in the
Catacombs: and those who thought of
him as God loved to dwell upon his
risen greatness more than on the idyl
of his birth To them his entry upon
earth seemed less a subject of rejoic-
ing than his opening of the heavens.
They suffered and looked forward to a
future happiness. They would not
seem to make this world permanent by
sharing its gladness with the heather.
Theirs, in truth, was religion of hope
and patience, not of triumphant recol-
lection or of present happiness.

"Christmas Past"

It was indeed gracious time, and
as we read of the revels and cere-
monies and find foolish beliefs OF
Christmas Past, we might regret what
we have lost in this tanner and less
picturesque age, If we did not know
that never before in history was
Christmas kept so truly and heartily
in the spirit of the day as it is now.
We have dropped good many rude
and some pretty customs, but we have
gained a broadening spirit of almost
universal charity, feeling of real
brotherhood, that is perhaps none the
less real that it is held in check a
good deal during the rest of the year.
Charles Dudley Warner.

A CHRISTMAS VISION

On Christmas eve mid all the joyous glee
That in my righteousness surrounded me,
/ happened by some chance to turn mine
eye
Out through a window-wreath that hung
near by.
And as I glanced through 1t into the
night
I seemed to see, lit by some holy light,
childish face with wistful, smiling lips
That thrilled me to my very flnger-tips.
Two eager hands stretched forth called
as in stress,
To me to carry help to Helplessness,
And in the sad eyes of that child / saw
In all It's loveliness the Christmas Law
Not command, no everlasting Must
Upon Reluctance for it's teaching thrust
But just pleading hint to him who runs
That all who suffer are Gods Little Ones!
And then the picture in the wreath was
gone,
And in its place the Eastern star-beams
shone-
The same that nineteen centuries ago
Led on the Wise Men with their heavenly
glow;
And cen as they wandered through the
drifts
And into lowly places carried gifts
To cheer, and give release and pay my
due
Unto my Lord through them that suffer
rue.

City Boys Versus Country Lads.

Speaking of the curious fact that
city boys seem to have greater physi-
cal stamina than country boys, there is
also the Civil war tradition that it was
the city boys who stood the privations,
long marches and other physical
strains better than the country boys.
What makes the country boy outstrip
his city competitor must be his ambi,
tion to win the prizes of city life which
dangle SO alluringly before his eyes,
whereas to the familiar vision of the
city boy they appear as mere matters
of course, hardly worth having and
certainly not worth exceeding strife

Kaiser Believes In piyinina Rods.

The use of the divining rod by the
German armies for discovering water,
as is reported, is probably due to the
kaiser, whose faith in the power OF
the magic hazel twig" is implicit.
After watching many experiments by
German OWNERS" he expressed con-
viction Of the utility of the practice
for the discovery not only of water
but of metals. Some years ago he
sent a special "diviner" to German
Southwest Africa to prospect for wa
ter and gold, and the modern Dous-
terswivel claimed the discovery of
more than one hundred wells by
means of his sensitive rod.
