Progress In Turkey.
Tho Turks, observes a Paris Jour
nal, aro becoming more European
overy day. It Is announced that Chef
kot Pasha has made an order that sol
diers nro to be supplied with a num
ber of forks. They will not each havo
ono, but they use them In turn; on
other occasions they will continue to
use "la fourchette de la nature." Al
though we may be inclined to smile,
Chofket Pasha's order Is a sign of
progress, for, after all, forks are com
paratively a modern invention.
It was in Venice that forks were
first introduced some time in tho
fifteenth century. It was at the time
considered a grave scandal to sup
plant the plans of nature, it being
contended that one of the uses of
our hands nnd fingers was to serve
tho stomach. Queen Elizabeth, we
are told, had only two or throe forks
and spoons In silver. The personages
about the court used wooden forks.
Powerful X-Rays.
Before the German Society of Phy
sics, F. Dessauer recently exhibited
an apparatus for the production of X
rays of extraordinary penetrating
power, his Idea being that such rays
might prove useful In the medical
treatment of deep-seated disease. By
employing Roentgen tubes in which
the exhaustion of the air Is carried
to a very high degree, and through
which, in consequence, the electric
discharge can bo sent only by means
of a very groat tension, ho produced
rays so penotratlng that they readily
passed through the bones as well as
tho flesh, so that a' radiograph of the
hand made with these rays showed
hardly any imago of the bones. With
ordlnnry raya the energy at the sur
face of tho body is a hundred times
moro Intense than at a depth of five
millimeters in the tissues. With
Dessauer's rays tho penetration is
very much more profound.
Sodium for Electric Uses.
Sodium is an excellent conductor
of electricity, and in view of the In
creasing price of copper and Uio
growing demand for that metal not
only for electric Installations, but for
many other purposes, the Idea has
bocn broached that sodium should be
tried as a material for electric cables.
Experiments looking to this end havo
lately been mado by Mr. A. G. Bott
He filled an iron tube 130 feet in
length with melted Bodlum. Tho coro
thus formed had a cross-section of an
Inch nnd a hnlf. A current of 500 am
peres was readily transmitted through
It Mr. Bott thinks that sodium con
ductors constructed upon this plan
may bo made cheaper than conductors
of copper.
Wood as Strong as Iron.
Recent oMclal tests of tho many
valuable hardwoods natlvo to Western
Australia havo mado known tho ex
traordinary properties of ynto, bo
lloved to bo tho strongest of all known
woods. Its average tensile strength
is 24,000 pounds to the square inch,
equaling that of good cast iron. But
many specimens are much stronger,
and one was tested up to 17 1-2 tons
to tho square Inch, which Is equal to
tho tensile strength of wrought Iron.
Tho sawn timber of yato Is probably
tho strongest In tho world. The trco
grows to a maximum height of 100
feet, and has sometimes a diameter
of 2 1-2 or oven 3 feet

A movement Is under way in Spo

Charles M. Fnssett, president of tho
chamber of commerce, Involving tho
expenditure of $2o,000,000 to mnko
Spokane not ouiy the largest inland
city, but tho best place in which to
live nnd work on tho continent. In
outlining the preliminaries for tho
work Mr. Fnssett said:
"We want Spokane to be beautiful,
sane, healthy nnd happy. Wo want
cnAnr.Es si. fassett.
parks, boulevards, paved streets and a
scheme of public buildings that will
be a credit to our people. We want
perfect water, sewage and garbage

make Spokane n better place iu which
to live, and with these we may trust
implicitly that it will be populated by
the right kind of men and women nnd
become ns great and strong as tho ag
gregate of its citizenship. We want to
combine tho beautiful and the prac

a few days will be divided into sub
committees on legislation, physical de
velopment, municipal administration,
commerce nnd economics, public build
ings and civic art and exploitation,
but will not be limited to any one Im
provement or class of Improvements.
We are more anxious to know wherein
Spokane Is weak than wherein it is
strong, so that we may build accord

Valuable Suggestions That Are Ap
plicable to Any Rural Community.
A town booster who knows how to
boost recently prepared these ques
tions and suggestions, which are ap
plicable to any town, whether it is on
the map or not:
Where is our town on the map?
Who knows our town is on the map?
AVho cares other than our home
folks?
What does our town mean Indus
trially to America?
What is its rank in the American
development game?
What's the score?
Are we really in the game?
Boys, it is almighty Important the
position our town takes in this race
for municipal supremacy.
And the old town cannot fight her
battles without you and me to boost
We can boost nt least if we do not
build.
No town Is better thnn her men.
No town ever went ahead without
men to push her ahead.
A lazy farmer allows his crops to
run to weeds.
A lazy townsman allows his town to
run to weeds literally nnd figurative
ly. Weeds and crops do not thrive well
together. Weeds and town develop
ment do not know each other.
Let's cut down the weeds.
Let's cultivate our ground.
Thero is a rensou for our town being
on tho map or it would not be there.
Let us study our town n little.
After we know our town let's tell
others; let's iass the information
around; send it abroad.
Lot's work for our towu.
Our private business Is Important
nnd must not be neglected, but our
general business interests are insep
arably associated with tho welfare of
tho town.
If tho town prospers wo will havo a
better chanco to prosper.
What aro you and wlint am I willing
to do to mnko our town moro promi
