THE NEW AGE, PORTLAND, OHEGON -.',-" ""ijmff-'w 1 Topics of 1 I the Times I account of degraded habits and moth ods of living, but simply because the Chlncso put their shouldor to tho wheel of work with a determination and per Blntency which workmen elsowbcro do not exhibit Ptana to fortify tho cnnal may bo ob solete before thcro can be uso for them. Tho study of Jlu Jltnn has beon aban doned at Atinnpolln. No further uso for It, probably, hIiico lmitritf litis boon cut out Thoro Ib plouty of faith In tho futuro Of tho l'niuuna canal, but tho pooulo oro beginning to think It li time for tho works.

We know some fellows who could trade tholr birthright for a kettle of beau eoup and mnko a crncltflred good bargain. Tho Chicago man who has mado n bot of $23,000 that Ho can ltvo for a year without telling a Ho ovlduntly doesn't expect to got homo lato onongh at night to mnko Ills wife regard It as her duty to (mention him. A mining engineer and his wlfo Imvo I icon arrested charged with having swindled Investors by nilnrepreNontlng tho valuo of mining property, Most of tho Joy of mining promotion will dlo out If Iho law Interferon for tho protcc tlou of tho tenderfoot. Now, thoso bo the virtue of the cero ids they aro chonp, oaslly swallowod and of tnodernto mttrJtlvo value. Thoro Is nn eloincnt In the average human inltid, half puritanic, half Mingy, which Is Inclined to counj as ji virtue o In gestion of any food which Is not espe cially attractive but bcllorod to bo nu tritious. In fact, to oat that which Is cheap and filling Is ono of tho petty J lev, A poor man had hotter keep out of Congress. Campaign exponsos aro heavy and they come every two years. No man can go to Court wis without neglecting his law practtco or Ills bust iieHs. If ho Is a poor man ho will prob ably lotto his client or his customers; n xmall Inmlnpss or practtco will not support piirtncrs or malingers. After n few years In Congress nluu men out of ton are bontou for renoinlnatlon and then If they lmvo not a fortuuo or nn istnhllshrd business to fall back on they will try to get some small salaried placo under tho government mid may not bo successful.

Mankind Is wonderfully distributed. Possibly the great major ity aro not for any of these spectacles, but we do not hear of them so much. That the human rare will become blind through the effects of the eleo trtcal current so abundantly generated for modern uses Is tho startling prop osition of an alleged scientist of Chi cago. We are of tho opinion that this statement should be classed among tho vagaries of science. There never was a time when real science commnnded more respect or, to demonstrated truths, more unquestioning bellof than the present Tills Is slvown by tho In numerable Instances of applied sclenco In all branches of Industry, nut scien tific demonstrations are ono thing and scleutlllc speculations are quite anoth er. In fact, real scientists do not In flulge In the latter, They announce con clusions us the result of patient and thorough research, but they do not pro mulgate long-range speculations or fan tastic theories, One of the Impressions which Kir Ian Hamilton of the Hrltlsh army obtained while accompanying the Japanese army In Manchuria and which he describes In his "Hcrap Hook of a .Staff Otllcor" Is the tremendous productive power of tho Chinese, lie niyh that he never saw anywhere In tho world men work more Industriously and In some respect more Intelligently, and this upon a basis of compensation lutlulteMiually small when compared with that demanded In tho western world, lie entirely sup lorts tho contention of the lulvor lead ers of the Tutted States that Chinese labor must lo excluded, Ihviiiifo he af firms that If It were permitted to enter into competition with the ordinary la bor of America tt could not fall to ac quire an asceudcucy over It not on Thoso who koop n closo watch on women's ways profess to Bee a decided falling off In enthuslnsm among tho fair sex concerning tho right and op portunity to cook nnd tho Increasing fields In which they may find a chanco to earn money or gain a livelihood. "Women aro beginning to find out" Bays a closo Btudont of tilts burning question, "that work Ib work, nfter all, and that competition grows florcer all tho time. Young womon who come from tho country districts with high hopes of Independence and Ideals about living tholr own llfo untrammolod by old traditions soon learn that It Is a struggle harder than any tlioy might encounter ut homo. Thou their views change and they begin to think much bottor of matrimony as a vocation than tlioy did bofora It will be soino time boforo tills new feeling will hnvo much weight In lessening Uio present rush of women Into all avenues of labor, but thero will bo an effort In time and tin rush will subside. The shadow of In dependence rather than the substance Is all that many women gain, and this Is being slowly realised." - i It was found lately In Philadelphia that bright colored candles which school children were eating In large quantities wore colored with coal tar dyes. Those dyes aro poisons. They are used by unscrupulous manufac turers In placo of vegctablo dyes be cause they aro cheaper. Public owner ship Is the panacea of soino peoplo for all Ills, and It was suggested that to Insuro n suppply of pure candy the city should begin mnklng It Thero would bo no occasion for schemes for municipal candy factories If there wero strict and strictly enforced national and stato puro food laws. Bovernl other adulterant besides coal tar dyes aro found In candles. Olucoso Is one. It Is not polionous, but It Is a cheap and Inferior commodity, nnd It uso Js a fraud. Another common candy adulterant Js terra alba, n whlto clay wldch js put lil to add weight It Is said 2.1 or 00 per cont of tho wolght of candy sometimes is given by tbjs worthless nnd hurtful substance. AS adulterant which Is widely used Is paraffin. It Is put In chocolates to gtvo them consistency, onnblo them to stand uui wiiiuicr, ami giro uiera a gioss. !
