Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, some time ago conceived the. idea of sending to the mother of every baby reported at-the end of every month some educational material from the state board office,. together with a polite note wishing the mother and child well, and offering to help the mother in any way the board might do so to enable the baby to be started right in its life battle. In re- ply to one of the communications, Dr. Hurty a few days ago received the following letter: “I would like to-inquire as to the nature of the help you are prepared to give to the mother of six fine, healthy youngsters. 1 doubtless shall wish advice, as sixty dollars a month doesn’t admit of extensive fees to a physician, and I feel that as a woman -who has made the struggle I have to give my offspring the mental, physical and moral status which is theirs 1 i | should have all the aid possible. “There is not an old soldier, mo matter how bravely he has fought, so deserving as a faithful wite and mother. 1 thank you very much for your kind offer.”—Indianapolis News. - Dragon Not China’s Emblem. As shown in its prompt repudiation by the republic of China, the dragon was not the emblem of China; it was the emblem of the late imperial fam- ily of Manchus. This Oriental dragon is one of the powers of the air, al- though wingless; one of the forces of nature which the Taoist religion has defled. The dragon kings dwell part- ly in water and partly on land; their shrines are for that reason erected on river banks. The germ of the dragon idea in the primitive races inheres in- some persistent memory of the great- er lizards, such as the crocodile of the warmer waters. The Chinese dragon being without wings is accord- 1ngly closer to type than is the winged dragon of the mythology of our more remote and northern race. As late as the “Historia animalium” of Con- rad Gesner (1564) science believed that one had but to travel far enough, sdy to the more remote defiles of the Alps, and he would surely encounter dragons. Melody of Birds. The melody of singing birds ranks as follows: The nl;htinnlu first, then the lnmet, titlark, ‘skylark and woodlark. The mockingbird has the greatest powers of imitation, the robin pnd goldfinch are guperior in vigorous notes.—Scientific Digest. SOLID MATTER A FICTION!

It is only motion. This stone this table, this hammer is only mo tion. Some new-fangled idiotic idea eh? Well, it is known that matter is composed of atoms. For a long time the atom was thought to be the finn.l analysis of matter. But such is not the case. A few years ago radium was discovered, and that has broken the atom into smal bits, 2,000 times. smaller than the hydrogen atom, the smallest of all These particles of the atom are called electrons, and now it has been found that these electrons are mere points of electrical energy. These electrons. says a magazine article, “are entirely free from anything that can be prop erly called matter.” Trillions and trilllons of thesé elec trons make up this piece of iron, and they are always in motion, fiitting about at the rate of 50,000 miles a sec ond. Now you know there is a lie ouf —how can a man calculate the speed of an invisible motion inside of an in visible atom?

It has been remarked as a curious elrcumstance that Bonaparte and Wel- lington were born in the same year, and that Burns and Hogg, the Scotch poets, were both born on Jan. 25; but it is more remarkable that the two greatest dramatic poets of modern Eu- rope, Shakespeare and Cervantes, both died on the same day in the same year, April 23, 1616. It is further re- markable that Shakespeare, like the great Raphael and Sobieski, died on the anniversary of his birth.—From Fennell's Shakespeare Repository, 1308, Special Saturday Sale Bag of Rags (new ragtime) Commencement Gifts ABERCROMBIE’S Good Books and Magazines 218 Beltrami Ave. The world’s best pop-corn confec- tion.
