Mrs. Anna Dram found out that

1749 Monroe St, Dec. 6. A doctor
who made a thorough examination
accompanied with laboratory tests
reported she was free from tuber-
cUlOsis.
It was dread of the white plague
that prompted Mrs. Dram that after
noon to borrow a nickle to telephone
a asst word to her husband, throw her
arms passionately around each of her
twin boys and lock herself in the
room with death. The Iandlady
smeIled the escaping gas and saved
her life.

WHEN THE COAL GIVES OUT.
(From Kansas City Starr


Will the time ever come when all
our power, heat and light will be TAX
en- from the energy Of the suns rays?
1t may, say the Investigators who are
experimenting along that line. Any
boy who has played in the sun with
and old spectacle lens knows that the
suns rays may be concentrated with
it SO as to burn a hole through a piece
of paper. Seventy years ago Button,
a Frenchman set fire to tarred plank
by concentrating upon it the rays
from a set of mirrors $50 feet distant.
Since then the experiments have gone
on.
The annual report of the SmithsOn-
ian Institute tells of what has been
done recently by Dr. Charles G. Alb
bolt, now studying this very thing in
the Smithsonian observing station at
Mount Wilson, California, and by Prof.
A. S. e. Alderman, of England.
The radiant energy received on the
surface Of the earth at noon on a clear
day is about 5000 horsepower per
acre, and this can be multiplied by a
system of lenses and mirrors. Prof.
Ackermann conducted experiments in
Egypt, where the sun shines clear for
many days in succession. He had five
205-fOOt boilers set on edge, in the
focus of five channel shaped mirrors
Of parabolic cross section, totaling
an area of 1920 square feet. With
this he produced twelve pounds of
steam per 100 square feet of mirror
surface exposed to the sun. His re-
suits seemed to indicate great value
in solar boiler operation, but the thing
has not yet been brought to a perfec-
ton that would make it practical to
use in preference to coal heated boil
ers.
But these Investigators look forward
to time, perhaps in the far distant
future, when the suns rays will gen
crate steam that will make and store
up electricity that will run trains,
motor cars, factories, and all sorts of
machinery, and heat and light our
homes.

Wonder Of the Rose.

(Ienry Dwight Sedgwick, in the Atlantic.)
What service has the rose rendered to
tors that we should admire it beyond all rational
measure? Did it feed them, clothe them, warm
them, to deck otherwise unattrac-
tive maid and win for her woer? Did
tors, whether beasts or human progenitors of
treating skull and tusk-like teeth breathe in it's
beauty and take fresh courage for the battle of life
Can it be by chance that man has come to find in
flower the great symbol of beauty? Why is not
the fruit more beautiful to him than the flower?
Why not the vegetable than the fruit? Why not
the fish than the vegetable, or a lamb chop most
beautiful of all?
