It is not shade alone that makes It
cooler under a tree in summer. The
coolness of the tree itself helps, for its
temperature is about 4o degrees l ah
reuheit. at all times, as that of the hu
man body Is a fractinu more than !n
degrees. So a clump of trees cools the
uir as u piece of ice cools the water in
a pitcher. That is why the Legisla
ture has authorized the park authori
ties of New York City to plant trees
In the tenement districts. If the air
can be made cooler and purer by the
trees fewer children will die of heat
ailments. As 4.ihkj more children die
in New Y'ork during June. July, August
and September than In any other sim
ilar period in the year, the Importance
of adopting every known means to suve
life is undisputed.
Every town occasionally puts on a
)lay for the education of the public
which is not announced on the bill
boards. A village in New York renders
the following performance In which
the Uaptist preacher and a jealous
young man play leading roles: The play
opens at the church picnic. The min
ister, au unmarried man, is the vogue.
Moreover, he is susceptible. Captured
uml cornered by the church organist,
he discourses all the day long of love's
young dream. And now the villain ap
pears. The organist's steady company
shows up. He behaves rudely an. I his
wrath Is as the wrath of Achilles. The
next act Is brief but tragic, lit is on
the following Sunday. The Jealous
lover lays for the preacher and wallops
the ecclesiastic sorely. Then comes the
curtain raiser In the police court with
the villain in the dock. The populace;
rent into opposing factions according
to creed, till and overllow the right and
left wings of the stage. Here the tele
graph Instrument stopped. Hut it in
easy to guess the sequel. Questioned
by the Judge, the prisoner glares nt the
minister and the organist and lowering
bis voice to the floor, huskily exclaims:
"Not guilty:" Pursued by the inex-
orab'.e law lie goes to the calaboose
j rather than jay his line while the tuiu
l i:er and the orj.iu:t iutrry and live
! happily ever after. Tlie only Uetault
' of the entire eii'ertalnnieut is to be
j fouu.l in the failure of the preacher to
i tiail the Jealous young oU HeliaJ
who attacked him.
Sir Wilfrid Iuturier Just prior to his
recent departure to Europe spoke of
the Alaskan boundary question as a se
rious danger to British and American
relations and a "menace of o'eu con
flict." It need not tiecouie a menace,
however, unless the Ilritish government
seeks to make it such. It is Great Brit
ain, not the United States, which in this
instance is seeking to alter boundary
lines. Briefly stated, the British con
tention is that tlit- boundary of south
eastern Alaska, instead of following a
line ten marine leagues Ithirty-foiir aud
otie-half statute miles, from the coast
line proper, leaps from headland to
headland at a distance of ten leagues
from the outlining capes aud promon
tories. Such a line would bring the
British lKjuudary niuch nearer the Pa
cific and would give Great Britain con
trol of important estuaries and fiords
leading to the sea. This claim, which
was never advanced until Is not
supported either by the original trea
ties, by the maps and charts of cartog
raphers or by any argument recogniza
ble to reason. The United States pos
sessions In this territory nre precisely
what the Russian possessions were
prior to their purchase aud the mean
ing of the original treaty negotiated
between Ilussla and Great Britain in
IV-'o is unmistakable. It must be pat
ent to the State Department that there
can be no yielding of American rights
on this point. The boundary question,
it is said. Is about to be brought up
again for tiual negotiations. Whatever
may be required to secure a common
survey of the boundary and a friendly
demarcation of the line with scientific
accuracy should be done; but from the
essential point nt issue mere can lie no
recession. The evidence In support of
the American claim is overwhelming.
The great value of salt ns an anti
septic and the fact that nature appears
to have made It an essential ingredient
in the food of nearly all animals have
made the medical profession very hos
pitable toward new theories or discov
eries regarding Its therapeutic quali
ties. The doctors in fact are never un
prepared for the announcement of
some extraordinary cure effected by
the use of this widely distributed com
pound. That pneumonia can be cured
by pumping an i per cent sodium
chloride solution at temperatures rang
ing from llij to 13t degrees Fahrenheit
into the lungs, however, naturally tax
es the credulity of most physicians.
This achievement was announced by
Dr. W. Byron Coakley, of Chicago, lit
a paper read by hliu before the Amer
ican Medical Association at the recent
convention at Saratoga. That such a
saline solution would be death to all
bacteria and would also have an anti
septic effect upon diseased tissue will
be readily conceded. It Is a question
of getting the solution into the limps
In such a way that the patient could
stand the treatment. Dr. Coakley
claims to have solved this problem by
the use of an Instrument invented by
himself, which Introduces the solution
into the lungs through punctures made
by a fine gold needle. After the salt
solution destroys the bacteria and cools
to the temperature of the body it is
claimed that it is absorbed in the blood
and does not clog up the lungs. In
doing this It protects the red corpuscles
against destruction by the poisons of
pneumonia. Physicians are naturally
skeptical regarding the effectiveness of
this treatment, for the reason that in
the attempts that have been made to
wash out the lungs with salt solutions
the patients have been unable to stand
it. The demonstrations before the as
sociation at Saratoga, however, nre
claimed to have shown the Coakley
method to be a success. If future tests
should more firmly establish the effect
iveness and practicability of his treat
ment Dr. Coakley will have scored a
great advance in medical science and
will have conferred a great boon upon
humanity.

FORTUNES OF THIS DECADE.
By Caaunccr H. Dpe.
Nothing ni o r e
murks this decade
from others thai:
the sudden accuniu-1

fortunes. When I
graduated from
Yale there were
only two multi

derbilt. Neither of tliem at that perinti
had reached the $HUUHH limit. There
were not in the whole country twenty
people worth a million dollars. To-day
there are more thau oue hundreirin Pitts
burs alone who have passed that figure.
These vast fortunes, themselves so con
spicuous, so almost incomprehensible, lire
at present more matters of curiosity thau
of antagonism. Most of the possessors
of them have shown a wise generosity in
the distribution of their wealth. In to
other country in the world, at no other
period, have the rich from their abun
dance given so lavishly to education, phi
lanthropy and patriotism. Last year the
known sums which were thus contributed
1 amounted to the high figure of SluT.liCO..
tHl.
The sudden acquisition of almost in
calculable riches by so many in the hist
rive years has produced many singular
results. The most ghastly misfortune
which can happen to a man who lias been
successfully prosecuting and increasing
his business until he has passed mid-lie
life is to be compelled to sell out and re
tire. He may receive a sum far beyond
any value he ever placed upon his plant
and gisid will. Nevertheless, the sale is
generally accompanied by au obligation
not to resume and compete. Little cut
side the factory or otliee interests him
because the cells of his brain have be
come, some of them, abnormally active,
nud others paralyzed through disuse. He
can think of nothing and he cares for
nothing hut the shop nud its results.
Hooks, literature, lectures, travel, politics,
society, ami play bore the life out of
him. I know half a hundred such men
who have come to this condition within
the last few years.
WOMAN'S DUTY TO SOCIETY.
By Hrs. Donaldh'Lean. '
The first duty of a woman to
J society is to make herself ugree
II I able to those whom she does l.ut ;
Jr I consider to be in society. j
n is easy euouga to tie agree-'
able to one's friends. The test I
of breeding, of course, conies in
j one s attitude to one's inferiors and one's :
( enemies two classes which a woman, in j
; considering her duty to society, is rery i
likely in her own mind to exile from so-'
ciety. On the contrary, they are very im-1
portant members of it. She ought to
know this because they occupy su many !
: of her thoughts. 1
j An attempt to be agreeable usually ;
takes a very obvious form that of Hat- j
: tery. Flattery is exceedingly bad form, i
Flattery is the spurious coin, the gold j
! coin is simple graciousness. A cardinal j
' .principle of being agreeable is to be gra- '
cioiis. Graciousness includes a negative
j talent the talent of snubbing nobody. j
The bane of social intercourse is Miiih- j
. bing. Snubbing is adopted presumably
; to emphasize one's superiority to the j.er- j
sun snubbed. On its face it defeats its j
WAS A ROSY-CHEEKED GIRL
ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO.
This Is a picture of Mrs. David B.
Stamp, of Fiiiehville, Orange County,
N. Y. She is u little, old. almost for
gotten woman, living in a little, old,
almost forgotten town. You would
scarcely believe to see her that she
was an old woman ns long ago us the
outbreak of tli Civil War; you would
scarcely believe that one hundred
years ago she was a plump, red-cheeked
girl playing on the shores of the
blue Hudson, and the prettiest girl,
at that, for many mile In nil directions.
But that Is exactly what she did do
and what she was, nnd now as she sits
among the gathering shadows of life's
twilight, waiting for the night to fall,
she can look backward across the cen
tury and say that the world with all
Its teeming millions has been born
ttgain since that far distant time when
she wns a little girl nt play.
Mrs. Stamp was born on the shores
of the Hudson oue hundred aud eight
years ago. She spent her girlhood
there and saw the trial trip of Hubert
Hilton's first steamboat. She remem
bers when the country rang with the
praises of General Washington. Site
remembers the day he died. She re
iveinbers the Marquis de Lafayette.
Andrew Jackson, the war of lSlU, ami
recalls most of tl:-? principal events
that have taken place In her lifetime.
Mrs. Stump spends most of her time
nt her spinning wheel, which, like her
self, belongs to an almost forgotten
time. Every garment that she wears,
ns well as nearly every piece of fabric
in her bumble home. Is homespun
goods, the work .of l.er own hands.

own end. For the woman who vUh.-s
to be agreeable to society naturally
wishes to make miciety believe in her.
But when she snubs any one whom she
considers licneath her she is giving sin
pie proof that either she or her an -i-stors
have not been used to the trade of s-n icty
in which she finds herself: and that file
is, therefore. Uot what she would have
others believe.
The woman who has a right to the so
cial position she occupies, nnd whose fam
ily for generations has been in the same
position, will find it necessary to snub
no one neither those whom she meets
socially and whom she does not consider
her social equals, nor those in other walks
of life with whom she is brought into
casual contact.
Graciousness to her friends and to her
servants, to her acquaintances and to her
sewing woman, to her children and to
every one kins a favor of her. to those
who are geutlewomen and to those who
are uot that is the first rule of conduct
for one who fulfills her duty to society
by being agreeable.
The duty of making one's self agree
able to society means simply a woman's
duty to let her best impulses rule her all
the time. So this becomes u rule for gen
eral conduct as well as fur social inter
course. HOW TO CLRB TRUSTS.

AMERICAN FARMERS FOR HAWAII.

I am deeply interested in the

Out of the population of ltKI.OHO. near
ly ".HUM! are Asiatic, (iO.bim being Jap
anese and 8i,mJ Chinese. There are also
several thousand Porto Kicans, but they
are undesirable, as they would rather lie
in i.-iil nil of flip time than no to work.
The land area of Hawaii is i.ouo,oii
acres. Of this area H,mhj.(NHI ncr. are
in the hands of seventy men engaged in
sugar raising aud cattle ranging. The
other L.tNHi.iKHi acres, which constitute
the government lands, are rented end
leased to the sugar corporations, the
leases ranging from five to sixteeu years.
These government lauds 1 want divided
up into homesteads to encourage Ameri
can fanners to go to Hawaii. Instead of
dividing the government lands into home
steads of lim acres, as in the United
States, the best lauds could be divided
into twenty-acre homesteads and the pas
toral lands into eighty-acre homesteads,
either uf which would give the American
farmer a tine homestead to support his
family all the year round.
To give an idea of how fertile the best
laud is. the sugar corporations produce
an average of ten tons of sugar to the
acre. The rice planters produce two
crops a year, aggregating between o.olHI
nnd (j.OiHl pounds to the acre. The same
land planted with tarn, a plnnt akin to
elephant's cars, which is the staple food
of the natives, will produce somewhere
between 4,0ixl and ,rM).HMI pounds per
acre, nnd it sells at one cent a pound.

Even In a country so recently consc

burled cities awaiting the pickax of the
historian. Of these none Is perhaps
more Interesting, certainly noue U
more picturesque, more colonial and
even to-dny more English than M
Williamsburg In Virginia that "mid

"laid out and paled," to become a char

under king and crown.
Its three streets of the reign of Wil
