, The Popular Science Monthly for
March opens with an, article by Pro
fessor Arthur Gordon ..Webster, of
Clark University,, entitled "America's
Intellectual Product." ' It is a severe
arraignment of our performance in
science, art and literature, contrast
ing it unfavorably with the product
of other countries. Articles such a
thl and Mr. Owen Wister'i recent
address at Harvard may call atten
tion to the lack of encouragement of
research work which stilt obtains in
this country, in spite of the great im
provement which has taken place in
recent year. Mr. Charles Clarence
Datchelder, of Boston, discusses the
grain of truth to be found in the
bushel of Christian Science chaff; Dr.
C. K. Edmonds, of Canton) gives an
account of a Visit to the Hangchow
bore, ! with elaborate illustrations of
the surroundings and of Uie Interest
ing phenomenon. Professor George
M. Stratton, who has recently accept
ed a call to the University of Califor
nia from the Johns Hopkins Univer
sity, write on the extent to which
railway accidents are due to lack of
color sense in engineers. Professor
John J. Stevenson, of New York
University, discusses certain factors
concerned with the influence of tech
nical schools. rrofessor W. E. Ayr
ton, of the Technical College, South
Kensington, gives interesting remi
niscences of Kelvin in the sixties, nd
Professor James Edgar Swift contri
butes an article entitled "Man's Edu
cational Reconstruction of Nature."
Among shorter article is an account
of Professor. Michclson' researches
which have warranted the award of
the Noble , prize. It is accompained
by an excellent photograph.
, Men should thank Cod and take
courage for the future as they see the
influences of technical training, which
has transformed the face of the world
and led to increasing recognition of
unity of Interest. Improvements in
mining and metallurgy have brought
about improved methods of transpor
tation and have cheapened products
everywhere, while Increasing the re
wards of labor; the beef of our south
west and the wheat of the northwest
can be sold in London at profit to the
producer, and famine in any part of
the .civilised world is almost impos-
sible;r the coal of southwestern Vtr
ginia has been sold itt London at
profit for less than the freight to .tide
water, thirty years ago, .when the
transporting companies were losing
money; improved methods of refining
petroleum have reduced the cost of
illuminating oil to a small part of the
price of thirty-five years ago, have
carried light literally into the dark
places of earth, have lengthened
man's day by three hours and have
given to agricultural communities, a
social and intellectual life previously
impossible; mechanical life and sani
tary engineers have made possible
the compulsory introduction into ten
ements of comforts and conveniences
which, half a century ago, were con
sidered luxuries even in the homes of
the wealthy. These and a multitude
of other changes for the better, due
to men trained in applied science, for
the most part in schools of applied
science, have in very truth brought
the ends of the world together and
given us better sense of the brother
hood of man.--Profes9or J. J. Steven
son, in The Popular Science Monthly.
In so far as scientific productivity
is measured by the number of men of
international eminence a country may
possess. thi would refer, to the pre
ceding rather than to the present gen
eration. : Host,:; eminent i, men have
done, their great work at least thirty
years ago, and it is perhaps not (lis
couraging that, the possibilities for
scientific work in this country were
small jn. the seventies as compared
with the opportunities . ,to-day.
Whether we, are now accomplishing
research proportionate in importance
to the number engaged in it and to
the facilities given them is a different
quesuuu uu uuc wuitn u i.t pruuauiy
impossible to answer. It appears
from various bibliographies that about
, one seventh of the titles are Ameri

suming that their average value is
either above or below that of those
from other countries. : It seems that

'i iDon't lei; anyone's prejudice or selfish opposition convince
you that any of the "Wangle A" brands are not better
than any other cigars sold at the same price.
That's no way to' judge.
You can test it for yourself, and you are the only one
who knows when the cigar suite you.
Smoke any "Triangle ; A" brand and compare it fairly
with any other cigar sold at the same price.
We are willing to stake the success of our whole business
on public opinion founded on this test. !
The experience whfcn ,hs been combined in producing
the American Cigar Company's cigars was acquired from the
operation, of nearly 100 of the most famous and successful
factories in -Cuba and the United States. I And processes of
proper refining and scientific blending mean much to every
smoker. ;

is that worth the trouble ? ,

scientific publications, that we stand
pretty close to (Great Britain and
France, and that we are surely before
any other nation. Then if we wish to
take the patriotic and optimistic point
of view, we can find comfort in the
fact that no other nation has in the
past , twenty year enjoyed such a
notable increase in scientific activity.
Should thi activity continue to in
crease at the same rate for the next
twenty years, there will be no occa
sion to shun comparison with other
nations. The Popular Science
