Ingersoll's Eloquence

The following is the excerpt from
mgersolrs famous speech in which he
characterized James G. Blaine as a
plumed knight:
sour country, crowned with the vast
and marvellous achievements of it's first
century, asks for man worthy of the
past and prophetic of her future; asks
for a man who has the audacity of
genius; asks for a man who is the
grandest combination of heart, con-
science and brain beneath her flag
such man is James G. Blaine. -. :.
Like an armed warrior, like plumed
knight, James G. Blaine marched down
the halls of the American congress and
threw his shining lance full and fair
against the brazen foreheads of the
defamers of his country and the ma
ligners Of his honor"

KEEP WELL CHILD AWAY
FROM ONE HAVING COLD
Is Hard To Distinguish From
WhOOping Cough In Early Stage

Speaking of whooping cough, which
is always prevalent at this time of the
year, DIR. R. H. Riley, Director of the
State Department of Health, said:
"In its early stages, whooping cough
can easily be taken for an ordinary
cold. On that account, it is much safer
to regard every cold as possible
danger signal and to act accordingly.
"Whooping cough is hardest on the
babies and young children-any
mother who has been through spell
of it with her children knows this
from her own OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
we should take special care to protect
the babies and all young children
from exposure to the disease. One
of the best ways to safeguard them
is to keep them away from any per-
sons-young or old-who have colds.
at is a great mistake for mothers
to say of whooping cough or of any
of the so-called children's diseases that
since they are only children's diseases
all of the children may as well have
them together and have them over.
They don't realize the risks they are
running when they let the sick and
we'll play together, or sleep together
or drink from the same cup, use the
same towels, share the same handker-
chief, or use the same toys. Whoop-
ing cough is serious disease not
only because of the suffering it causes
but because it often leaves some
after-effect that weakens the child's
constitution or that damages the
heart or kidneys, or other organs. 1t
is especially fatal for babies and chill
dren under five. The records of the
Maryland State Department of Health
show that one out of every five
babies who gets the disease is likely
to die from it.
SIN the last ten years over $4,000
children in Maryland have had whoop-
ing cough, and there have been 1900
deaths from the disease in the State,
SO per cent of which have been among
children under five. Last year, 4,371
cases were reported in the State with
1875 deaths.

take chances. When any of your chill

English Names.
Seattle Times )

Cabled reports from London of the trial of the sprghtly rector of Stiffkey before the Norwich Consistory Court have interest for American readers wholly outside the peccadillos of the church. man. Every dispatch gives, parenthetically, the pronunciation of the name Stiffkey, which in the Kings English appears to be Stewky.
 The pronunciation of proper names in the tight little isle is constant of wonder to people of this country who finds nothing comparable in Americanese. From long habit Americans able to say, Please pass the Woostershre sauce" with out thinking that it is spelled Worcestershire Also the commercial city and famous port of the Massa- lehusetts fishing fleet is called "Goster" instead lof Gloucester. These proper names direct im- portations from England and they have been in the American vocabulary so long that they may be regarded as fixtures.
 Although we pass glibly Gloucester and Worcester, usually fall into pronunciatve error when we tackle such names Cholmondeley. Beau champ and Majoribanks. Even the English them selves have been observed to smile when they pro- Inounce Chomondeley, "Chumy"; Beauchamp, Bee cham' and Majoribanks "Marsh-banks" After some centuries of these accommodations still national jokes.
 There appears to be no sound orthoepic reason for pronouncng Featherstonhaugh as if it were spelled Fanshaw, Birmingham if it Brum- magem. The list could be expanded to great lengths but the only conclusion to be arrived at is that the English have purposely departed from the rules lof pronunciation in order to identify Americans who spending holiday in the island. There is chance, howveer that if the key to their weird pronunciation is cabed often enough visitors from this country will be taken for natives when they ask to be shown the parish of Stewky.

Adverse Business Conditions Stimulate
 Research.
lEngineering and Mining Journall

The large number of highly trained research in- vestigators that unemployed indicates that erous companies have been pruning expenses for 1892 beyond the point of real economy. Annual reports of those companies that made a profit in 1881 indicate that the result attributable to the manufacture of products developed by re- search to meet thrilled needs. Similarly, in- vestigation of raw-material producers would show that those weahering most successfully the current economic situation have employed and employ ing research workers to expand markets.
 specific instance is revealed in statement in the annual report of the International Nickel Company for 1931 Notwithstanding the severity of the present worldwide depression, the company has been affected less adversely during this period than during the industrial collapse of 1921 Sales of nickel in all forms during 1881 largely in excess of similar sales in 1921 showing increase of 104 per cent This comparison is significant in that it clearly indicates that the consumption of nickel is increasing rapidly than that of most other metals This satisfactory increase in sales is to be attributed only to the recognized value of nickel but to the fact that for the past ten years technical research and development have been employed a progressive scale to demon- strate it's worth and to extend it's uses
 Tn the light of such information and opinion the research worker may be given credit for at least minimizing the effect of this period of ad- verse business conditions He will be an important factor in return to satisfactory circumstances His services probably valuable than they Progressive executives realizing that his retention the payroll is likely to insure sales opportunities and effect improvement in company morale and financial prospects,

He declared the few hundred dollars excess sive expenditure discovered until the expense bills came in. He reported it himself
