In some finstances. such as coal and oil and phosphate rock and radium ore, the United States possesses more than all the other known deposits of the world, and the only essential minerals of the first rank of which the United States bas no known supply at all commensurate with its needs are nitrates, potash salts, tin, nickel and platinum. But as it stands today no other nation in the world so nearly approaches absolute irdependence in respect to mineral re- sources, notwithstanding the vast mag. nitude of our home consumption.—Re- view of Reviews. The Professions. The census has provided us with a definition of “the professions.” A good many folk bave wondered a good many times what the “professional classes™ were. The census has decided. They constitute— Actors. Architects, designers, draftsmen, etc. Artists and teachers of art. Clergymen (including religious and -} charity workers). Dentists. Journalists. Lawrers (including abstractors, no taries and justices of peace). Literary and sclentific persons. Musicians and teachers of music. Physicians ‘and surgeons. including nonmedical healers:. Schoolteachers, professors in col leges, etc.—New York Press. The Earth Shadow. The earth has a shadow. but few ever see it except in eclipses of the moon. Nevertheless, many of us have noticed on fine, cloudless evenings in suminer, shortly before sunset. a rosy or pink arc ou the horizon opposite the sun, with a binish gray segment nnder it. As the sun sinks the arc rises notil it attains the zenith and even passes it. This is the shadow of the earth. A want ad will sell it for you. MultiKopy tion in history.

Five Rules For Collection and Disposal Advocated. Mrs., C. H. Wilmerding of Flushing, N. Y., has given a great deal of atten- tion to the question of garbage dis- posal. In a recent address which she delivered before the American Civie association she laid down the following Ave rules as necessary for all munici- palities: “First—The city must collect the garbage every day. “Second.—Garbage, refuse and ash cans must not be allowed to stand in the streets and alleys at all. “Third.—-Tin cans, sticks, paper, broken china or any refuse other than garbage must be kept separate and in a suitable receptacle. “Fourth.—Ashes must be kept sep- arate. “Fifth.—Garbage must be sorted and pressed and not allowed to spoil. “Failure to observe these rules must be reported and fines imposed.” Cleveland Centenary.
