Dr. Manning Fish, of Chicago, an nounces a new theory concerning pneumonia.

The only way to treat a pavement after it is once down is to let it alone. In many cities of Europe a conduit runs on each side of the street, and In this all the light wires and pipes of every description are placed. The spectacle of a gang of men digging up a street pavement in any leading city of Europe is quite unknown. Military experts are satisfied that the balloon offers an excellent means of locating the positions of the enemy and that the danger to the men in the balloon is not so great as had been heretofore supposed. By the aid of photographic apparatus and field glasses the enemy may be lo cated at distances ranging from five to fifteen miles, according to the con dition of the atmosphere. A sunflower four feet high, with the usual leafage, gives oft in twelve hours from twenty to thirty ounces of water in the shape of perspiration. It has been calculated that an acre of cabbages, planted in eighteen inch squares, gives off every twelve hours over ten tons of water through their leaves. Most agricultural plants ex hale during the period of their growth more than 200 times'their dry weight in water. The total length of the Panama ca nal will be forty-six miles.

THE DOCTOR'S JOY RIDERS. Reasons Why He Decided to Get Runabout in Place of a Touring Car. The doctor said: "I'm going to sell that touring car. It's too much for me." So of course it was in order to ask: "How? Why?" and then to wait the answer. "Well, you see," said the doctor, "it is a seven passenger car and of course a big one. Well, every once in a while I get out on the street with the tonneau empty and the first thing you Vnow I see a patient. "He or she hails me, and of course I have to stop. Then if is only the part of decency to ask the patient In for a brief ride. "Sometimes they're going some where ust a little off my way, but they have no hesitancy in asking me to drop them off there. Actually, sometimes I have had the whole ton neau full of such riders. "The worst thing happened one day when a couple of them who were out riding with me and weren't going anywhere in particular announced that they were hungry. Well, it hap pened to be about my lunch time and we stopped in at a restaurant. "I'm blessed if they didn't expect me to settle the check, because neith er one had money enough to buy a sandwich. After that I decided to get a runabout, just big enough to hold my man and myself." New York Sun. Neanderthal and Australia. The famous Neanderthal skull found in Switzerland in 1S56, and other similar skulls and parts of skulls found elsewhere in Europe, have been regarded as representing a distinct species of the human race, to which the name Homo Primi genlus has been given. Professor W. J. Sollas undertakes to show that there are no grounds whatever for regarding the Neanderthal type of man as a sepaiate species. On the contrary, he thiuks that "the Nean derthal race, tho most remote from us in time of which we have any knowledge, and the Australian, the most remote from us in space, prob ably represent divergent branches of the same original stock." Doctor Lydekker remarks that this conclu sion of Professor Sollas'a accords with the modern view that the native Australians are low-grade members of the Caucasian, or European stock, instead of, as at one time supposed, half-bred oceanic negroes.

Prodlgakof Life. The kind of Fourth of July which this country has been cursed with for yiiars is an economic crime. It is destructive of human life. It sends to untimely graves children and adult3 who will be or who already are pro ducers. Killing them off by tetanus is a costly and painful method of ob serving a national holiday. It is as much a waste of national resources as the reckless drafts on the resources of the mines and the forests. The community goes to the expense of rearing children to be the workers of the future, only that they may figure in some Fourth of July death roll. Chicago Tribune. DROPPED COFFEE. Doctor Gains 20 Pounds on Postuni. A physician of Wash., D. C, says ol his coffee experience: "For years I suffered with period ical headaches which grew more fre quent until they became almoBt con stant. So severe were they that some times I was almost frantic. I was sallow, constipated, irritable, sleep less: my memory was poor, I trembled and my thoughts were often confused. "My wife, in her wisdom, believed coffee was responsible for these ills and urged mo to drop it. I tried many times to do so, but was its slave. "Finally wife bought a packago of Postum and persuaded mo to try it, but she made it same as ordinary coffee and I was disgusted with the taste. (I make this emphatic bo cause I fear many others have had the same experience.) She was distressed at her failure and we carefully read the directions, made It right, boiled it full 15 minutes after boiling com menced, and with good cream and sugar, I liked it It invigorated and seemed to nourish me. - "That was about a year ago. Now I have no headaches, am not sallow, sleeplessness and irritability are gone, my brain clear and my hand steady. I have gained 20 lbs. and feel I am n new man. "I do not hesitate to give Postum due credit. Of course dropping coffee was the main thing, but I had dropped it before, using chocolate, cocoa and other things tcf no purpose. "Postum not only seemed to act as an invigorant, but as an article of nourishment, giving me the needed phosphates and albumens. This is no Imaginary tale. It can be substantiat ed by my wife and her sister, who both changed to Po3tum and are hearty women of about 70. "I write this for the Information and encouragement of others, and with a feeling of gratitude to the in ventor of Postum." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

They are genuine, true, and full of huniar Interest, ACCIDENTS A : MONTH. : Every citizen should know what a corporation like the Metropolitan costs the average man. In "Great American Fortunes," in McClure's, Burton J. Heudrick sums up the case very clearly. Professional Jurymen hired to defeat the law; children's signatures bour'-it for a nickel for what purported to be a popular pe tition to the Legislature; the public literally bought and sold at every turn those are facts which Mr. Hen drlck brings to light. "Probably no street railway capi talists ever had so rich an opportunity for legitimate profit. The income from nickel fares amounts to $37, 000,000 a year. In spite of this, the whole Metropolitan system Is in a condition of deplorable decay. The story of the road, and the enormous fortunes which have been made by Its exploitation, is clearly written In its physical dilapidation. Crazy ve hicles, with machinery so out of Joint that its rattling can be heard blocks away, are running upon the most pre tentious thoroughfares. Their filthy condition renders them a constant menace to the public health. The quality of the employes, according to a statement recently made by Oren Root, the Metropolitan's general manager, is constantly deteriorating;' the men are so poorly paid that only those desperately in need of work Join the Metropolitan force. "The surface cars are not provided with the most ordinary safety de vices. New York is the only large city In the "country where the . old fashioned hand-brake is still in use. The Third avenue road, before the Metropolitan acquired It, used power brakes on all Its cars; the first act of'the Metropolitan, when it assumed control, was to remove these safety anpliancps. and the etplanation usu ally accepted is that tho management feared that the successful une of power brakes on one railroad would cause the pub'.lc to demand that the reform be extended to all the lines. This failure to use proper safety ap pliances and the inexperience of the employes makes the casualty list a heavy one. An Investigation recently made showed that in twenty-seven days there had been 2500 accidents on the street railways of New York City; forty-two people were killed outright, ten skulls were fractured, ten limbs amputated, forty-four limbs broken, while eighty-three other passengers were seriously in jured. In proportion to the traffic, the New York street railways killed eight times as many people as those in Liverpool. Their record Is sur passed only by the Wldener-Elkins roads in Philadelphia, which killad 801 passengers last year. As a re sult of its accidents, the Metropolitan trends annually nearly a million and t half dollars In damage suits." WORDS OF WISDOM. Saintliness does not grow by slgh 'ng. Doing is a safe path to any doc trine. Love lifts the lover more than the loved. Selfishness - short-circuits any prayer. It's a poor kind of good cheer that makes others sad. You cannot possess any more re ligion than ynu practice. Genius is simply making the most of whatever you may have. Crowns on the head are not won by wearing frowns on the face. You cannot grow in grace while you're fattening old grievances. When the preacher is fishing for praise he doss not catch souls. Woeful looks are sure to come from too much looking within.' He who makes light of love soon loses himself in the night of hat?. Respectability is Satan's best present-day substitute for righteousness. There's little virtue In abstaining from the evil when we ought to op pose it. In the light of the larger life wo will ba able to measure our gains by our losses. The man who wants to be first in the parade never wants to be in front in the battle. The preacher who rides a hobby seldom tries to harness it to the Gos pel wagon. When a man. scoffs at good things he may be trying to appease envy with derision. It's the little sins we cherish that at last set us around chasing to do their bidding. When a man looks on repentance as a city of refugs for the future, he is likely to find .be gate locked when he gets there. Home HeralJ. Tho Slippery Pronoun. Many are the circumstances which have been devised by civilized races in order to avoid the bluntness of direct address. In fact, it may be said that at the moment when a na tion standardizes its language it be gins to have trouble with its pro nouns. ."Thou" has, of course, become ob solete, etcept in prayer, although it flourishes colloquially in the north of Englaud. The second person plural is substituted. In parts of the South "you all" is heard, a further tep toward refiued elusiveness. In France and Germany "thuu" ilas been retained in familiar or saml contemptuous speech. In Spain and Italy, on the other hand, the third person Is substituted habitually in place cl it.

Shore and Dr. Paul Herould, Its Inventors. A steel ball weighing forty grains, mado extremely hard by a special process, is enclosed in a glass tube, and the hardness Is Indicated by the rebound as the ball Is dropped on the metal under test. A scale measures the height of rebound. On this scale 100 Is the average hardness for carbon steel, and proves to be the safety limit for steel torllt, sfter reheating and tempering.' The Instrument Is valuable in making tools of standard hardness. " ' ' That Brave Belief. A brave belief In life is indeed an enviable state of mind, but, as far as I can discern, an unusual one. I know few Christians so convinced of tho splendor of tho rjoms In their Father's house, as to be happier when their friends are called to those man sions, than they would have been if the queen had sent for them to live at court; nor has the church's most ar dent "desire to depart, and be with Christ," ever cured It of the singular habit of putting on mourning for every person summoned to such de parture.
