The Youth of Athens.

When Athens gave every fourth block to her children and youth for the gymnasium and the playground, she built bodies of silk and steel, and great men walked up and down her streets in regiments, and her health bloomed in the orations of Demos themes, and the essays of Plato and the marbles of Phidias. Just as soon as the race and the body began to deterioriate, Athens went to pieces This has been the story, also. of Ephesus, and Corinth, and Venice.- Newell Dwight Hills.

Wonders In clod of Earth.

A clod of earth may not seem to have any romance about it, but it is one of the most wonderful things im- aginable. The soil is a living ma chine, where microbes so small that ten to one hundred million are con- tained in enough earth to cover a penny are working together in a sys' tematic way. They cannot be seen and are only known by their work. and the greatest benefactars of the human race are those who promote their activities. The wise gardener looks after their well-being, for with. out them there could be no plant life and no human life, since all nutriment Is drawn from the soil.

Post Office. in Two Countries,

Beebe Plain, Que, has what is said to be the only double post office in the world. The office Is half in Can. ada and half in the States, with Beebe, Quebec, on one side, and Beebe, Vermont, on the other. An iron post ill the middle of the front porch marks the international boundary line. Aside from it's location the building Is of interest on account of the ma terial from which it is built, which Is granite. native to the locality, and on account of it's age, which is about century. The two prosperous commu. mites, which it serves, and which are practically one village, have population of about 1000, and are said to own more automobiles than any other village of this size in Canada.

(By Associated Press.)

CHICAGO, June 30.--The National
Society of Physical Therapeutics COZ
vened today for its twenty-second an
nual session, in joint meeting here with
the American Institute of Homeopathy.
President E. P. Mills, of Ogden, Utah,
in his address reviewed various me-
chanical and physical measures in the
treatment of disease, dwelling upon
the value of sunlight, X-rays and rad
ium. In part Dr. Mills said:
"An exposure to the X-ray of can
cerous growth may either destroy it
and induce fibrosis- method of
cure-or stimulate it to renewed
growth, the technique deciding what
the effect will be. The hands of al
most any of the earlier workers with
the X-ray bear immutable evidence of

agent. If they did not possess the
power to do harm, they could not
have the power to bring health.
Sunlight is one of the great gifts
of nature. 1t is the greatest disinfec-
tant in the whole list and is necessary
for the healthy development of all
forms of life. Deprived of it, either
vegetable or animal forms of life do
not reach their normal growth. Yet
this beneficent agent has another as
pect: Sun burns may be the Initiative

of cancerous development. A word nf
warning can be uttered against too

AS to radium, its effect on the
nervous system, If applied for a short
period, is stimulative; If applied for
number of hours it produces paralysis.
The length of time of application there

points for study, for opposite effects
are produced by long and short ex-
posures.

OXFORD, Ca, July 1.-The popu-
Iarity Of the new Emory University
Academy here is already evidenced BY
the number Of applications for adj
mission received by the head master,
Professor R. C. Mizell. The univer-
sity authorities have resolved not 20
crowd the dormitories nor the acad-
envy, and consequently on account Of
limited space, only about 100 more
applications for admission can posi-
bly, eb considered.
Those in close touch with educa-
.tional affairs believe now more firmly
than ever that the new academy will
meet a widespread demand in the
south for institutions Offering the best
