At one of the leading colleges of Cilifornia, a short time since. Dr. Ed ward Booth of the department of chemistry delivered a lecture on the subject of the new metal radium. The discovery of radium came through a peculiar quality which uranium was observed to have in making im pressions on a pbotographii plate. This action was first thought to be due to sunlight, but is was sc -¡dent ally found that sunlight was not necessary,and from this fact eel relists were led to discover radium as a sep arate and new element. The source of radium is the miner al pitch-blend, in which the radium is present only in ab^ut the same pro portion as there is gol3 in seawater. To obtain enough of the new metal to corer a nickel four tons of pitch- bleud must be worked over, and prob ably not more than two table-sp-ron- fulls have ever been extracted; so tiiat the valuation of 63,000,000 a pour.d which has been placed on the new metal is only ah approx.mate one. Some of the most characteristic propariies of radium are that it gives off light without any apparent change in condition, that it gives off heat sufficient to melt its own weight of Ice every hour, aod retains this capacity indefinitely, though it is probable it suffers an infinitesimal loss of weight. The peculiar activity which the new metal possesses, and that Is most likely toprove of value to mankind, is its apparent ability to kill or paralyze bacteria. The power of its peculiar radiation of light and beat may be seen in me fact that if the activity if oie grain of radium could be liberated all at once it would lift a twelve-ton battleship ten feet into the air. It does not seem prob able that radium exists In nature in anything like a pure state or that it will ever be very much easier to obtain than it is at present. „•still'd tbo There la a way of trifling that coms a heap of money.

Till Kind Yon Have Always Bought Price, 25c. and 50c. Of course there is nothing new In the cult of beauty; the only novelty lies in the extravagant fashion in wiiich new inventions are applied to it. E'ectrit baths and vibration treatment tnay be innovations, but cosmetics and medicated baths date from the earliest ages. Women have always aspired to be beautiful, and have painted their faces and “tired their heads” since time Immemorial in all countries. The geisha of Japan changes the color of her lips three times iu the evening, and no little Japanese lady ever misses an op portunity of whipping out the rouge pot and mirror wnich form .an indis pensable part of her toilet. Among the recipes which have come down to us from our ancestresses arc many [.rescriptions for the complexion com posed of marsh mellow and wax, honey of roses and olive oil. Mixed bathing In tubes of water thickened with scented bran and salutary herbs was the fashion in mediaeval France and r< called the days of Roman luxury. Vapor baths date from an even earlier period^ and one wonders if there is any nostrum today for the preserva tion of beauty which was not known to those professional beauties of France, Diane de Poit ers and Ninon de l'Enclos. The question is, are women really any more admired today for being steamed and smeared and electrified? Is any attraction worth having which is obtained by the painful and expen sive methods we read of? We doubt it. Nobody is really taken in by the artificially manufactured beauty. It is the duty of every woman to in ike the best of herself. Certain de fects of complexion and figure can be ea-ily remedied. Physical exercises fiejh air and good diet will work won der» with those, and by the addition of a smart dres»maker, milliner and cl*ver hairdresser many a plain girl ha- been transformed into a pretty one. If a woman’s uose is inclined t • absorb too much color and her cheeks loo little, no doubt a few judicious dabs of powder and roune in the right places may be excusable.

There were some very fine groups of decorative plants, a few asters, sweet peas, gladioli, etc., but it was practi cally a dahlia show, writes a corre spondent to Gardening. The people had eyes for nothing but dahlias. Sev eral dahlia specialists from out of town brought in grand collections, es pecially (inc In the cactus section, which opened the eyes of some of the flower growers here. Our florists have not paid much attention to growing dahlias, considering them coarse, com mon flowers not worth bothering with. But after seeing such noble flowers and delicate colors as were shown here this year and after finding that there are hundreds of flower cranks looking for the new and choice varieties and willing to pay good prices for them some converts have been made and the importance of the dahlia felt There promises to be a dahlia craze throughout the country. Somebody is going to make money originating new varieties. The people are always want ing something new. When things get common they lose their Interest in them.

Is there not a tine chance for any number of Intelligent and enterprising florists to exercise their brains and skill in orig inating new varieties in all kinds of plants that the people can grow?
