By GEORGE ARLISS.

TIME anti-vivisection movement is
growing in strength, slowly but
surely, and each new worker for
the humane treatment Of animals be-
comes almost invariably a permanent
active agent. The spread of nature
study is the cause of this growth. 1t
crystallzes the general public thought
upon humane topics and is one Of the
largest sources of humane education.
The study of nature unquestion-
ably leads one to grow steadily less
selfish. One cannot really know the
WAYS of animals without understand
ing them in some degree and sympa-
thizing with them altogether At the
bottom of all passive support of vivi-
section-for that is what public indif-
ference to this great wrong amounts
to-is human seIfishness. 1t is sim
ply arrogance to hold that animals
have no rights. Surely one cannot be
called a mere sentimentalist for hold
ine to the belief that animals have
rights to life. liberty and the pursuit
OF happiness

they have the right notion. What's so
terrible to a crook about going to State
prison? You can wear silk shirts to a
picture show up the river quite as well
as you can wear them to a show along
Broadway. One doesn't have to eat
the prison fare If he has the price of
'delicacies in his pocket. Why, it fairly
seems as if State prison all but Of

Jurors Without Experience Are
Apt to "CoddIe" Crime
"A panel of unseasoned jurors also
can do a tremendous amoun1 of cod
ding without being aware of it. That
is a curious condition which | never
contemplated in all it's force until l
went upon the bench. 1t is a fact.
though, that every new panel at the
opening of the term is unconsciously
inclined to give the accused all the
best of it. There is a disposition ap-
parent TO the most casual onlooker
not to be too harsh with the prisoner
ar the bar; to believe his disjointed
narrative against the straightforward,
firmly knitted and circumstantial story
told by the officers. Why all this I do
not attempt to explain, but l note that
later on, after the jurors have begun
to weary of unending denials and alb
surd contradictions, they are not so

Tests of Electron Theory
For Preservation of Life
Made at Volunteer hospital

TIME Volunteer Hospital, at Beck
man and Water streets, New
York, is the first public institu-
ton to convert modern theories upon
that minute electrical conception
known as the electron into a prac-
tical utility for relief of pain and hu.
man suffering. We are utilizing elec-
tricity in various ways. We have har-
messed it to multitude of utilities
and pleasures, to the very great ma
terial progress and intellectual ad-
vancement of the race. Therefore, an
almost immediate application, thera-
peutically, of theories so very recently
evolved should receive sympathetic
consideration. In other words, the ap-
plause so long offered to scientific de-
struction of the human may well be
directed now toward accomplishments
in fields of constructiveness and ef-
forts for preservation of life.
Until few years ago the atom was
accepted as the most infinitesimal por-
ton into which matter could be di-
vided, either in fact or by calculation
1t represents the chemists unit. 1t was
the uttermost in minuteness-unti,
discovery Of the electron. We are told
that million or so of electrons may
be encompassed within an atom, but
that they should not be considered as
divisible parts of an atom in the
sense of particles of matter, but rather
as minute representations of electrical
energy; as the tiny force which, with
many of it's kind. energizes the atom.
Reasoning from that hypostasis it is
not difficult to appreciate the signifi-
canoe of that which is commonly re-
ferred to as bodily electricity"

idea that one should be very careful
how he imposes his views upon an
other, to the possible narm of that
other person. However, the anti-vivi-
sectionists were denied the opportu-
nifty to make any adequate reply in the
same magazine that published the
cruel and specious argument that was
designed to justify animal torture in
the name of humanity.
