Ellison made his prediction several
years affo that animal mutter will or i
may be dispensed with ua tm article of
diet by mui liy. Iraftuiac the fixation of
nitrogen in vegetable (rrowths may be
aeooiupii-died. -
Nitrogen is one of the chief elements
in animal tissue. If it can be InfiiRed
into vegetables it will (five them the
nutritive quality of meat in endless va
riety. Just while I am writing this article,
snys a writer in Youth's Companion,
hs famous chemist llertheiot an
nounces to the French academy that,
one hundred years from now, the chief
food supply of mankind will consist of
nitrogenous vegetables. Ho comes
along; considerably behind Edison.
It hus long been the habit of foresee
ing men to predict that some great
clmnpe would occur within twenty-live,
fifty or one hundred years, andthnt
tho chanpre is apt to come very much
sooner . Often the prophet of it achieves
the result himself .
Anothor element of prepress in this
direction would he the extraction from
wood fiber of starch, sugar arid protein
substances, 1. e., those which are re
garded as the basis of animal tissues
and of some vegetable growthR. This
work has already been broached. If It
could be carried out successfully on a
large scale men could prodnco these
substances in immensu quantities at
factories situated in largo forest re
gions. Klectrle currents and artificial light
also, Edison expects, can be applied to
nil edible or fruit-bearing plants, so
that, apples and oranges, for example,
may ultimately be grown a foot in di
ameter. It vonld seem, then, that in
time the exact amount of sustenance re
quired by the human rnce could be cal
culated in advance and supplied with
almost mathematical accuracy.
If the forests are to be eaten up by
people for tho sake of the food con
tained in them there might be some
dancer of losing our woodlands, the
great safeguard of our water supply,
just, as they arc now threatened by the
rapacity of those who cut them down
wholesale fur lumber.
Hut the destruction of forests on this
score will bo somewhat counteracted by
the nitr.igeuuas vegetable supply; nnd

AMERICA'S ARMY OF TRAMPS.
An Atmy or l'anpto Who Colt thn Conn.
try ilnmonn nf liollnrs Annually.
An interesting leeture on "The
Tramp" was given by Prof. J. J. Mo
Cook, of Trinity college, the other
evening in Parker Memorial hall, Bos
ton. In part he said:
'The army of tramps In this country
numbers about forty-six thousand mule
persons, eleven-twelfths of them under
fifty years old, that is, in the prime of
life. Five -sixths of them are able
bodied, three-fifths have trades or oc
cupations requiring skill, and more
than nine-tenths ol them can reau nno
write. The political economist marks
that this body of adult males bears no
public burdens, while it costs the coun
try, by the most careful and conserva
tive computation, from eight to
ten million dollars; , not so very
much in a country like ours; but it Is
one-half moro than our Indian depart
ment ns, nearly one-half the cost
of our navy and more than one-fifth
that of our army. Theso idle men
are withdrawn from family ties
and have a most demoralizing ef
fect upon the communities that
they infest. They ore r source of the
spread of . two contagious diseases,
which should lie checked as far as pos
sible by the regulations of law. Only
nineteen of the forty-four states of the
union have tramp laws. There is not
a tramp law west of the first tier of
trans-Mississippi states, nor in any
southern state except North Carolina,
Alabama and Mississippi. The penalty
for being a tramp ranges from three
days in jail to five years in state's
prison, and there is an endless va
riety of fines. Opinions are divided as
to the ndvantageousness of ottering
lodgings to tramps at the public ex
pense. In many instances it has been
found practically impossible to get any
work out of tramps. As to the remedy
for the tramp evil opinions are di
vided, The labor colony is certainly
one of the foremost iu the opinion ol
the authorities of many foreign coun
tries. I would recommend a definite
decision whether we shall continue in
our present way. If we do, then, for all
public lodgings given the tramp, rc
quire labor in return. Let the differ
ent counties and towns work together
as much as possible. Call upon fro
dividual initiative end private be
l nevolence as fur as possible."

the Imare Carnot, only eighty tons
smaller. Germany's largest armor-clad

The Italians have come to the conclu
sion; that is indicated by the dimen

displacement. The determination of
France and the United States to keep
their battleships under 12,000 tons was
deliberately taken by each govern

efficiency. In this pulley Bussut also
agrees, the largest of her armor-clnds
in service being the Georgl Pobiedono-
sotz, of 10,280 tons, while her naval con
structors regard 12,000 tonB as about
the proper limit.
Of the cruisers now afloat the Rus

taking all things into consideration,
the most poworful. She is nrmor belt

YOUTHFUL HEROISM.
New England Children Who nave Shown
Oraat Courage In Reaming Playmates,
A few weeks ago the Boston Tram
script recorded the award of a medal
py the Massachusetts Humane society
to a girl of seven in Lynn who had
saved from drowning another lass of
the same age. Notable as the action
was, it is interesting to hear that such
incidents are common, though they
have not always commanded recognl
tion from the humane society. A cor
respondent to Essex sends us two items
which show that the nobler qualities of
human nature may be developed or
at least manifested at a very early age.
About a year ago tome boys were
playing on the railroad when an ex
press train came along. The whistle
was sounded, and all but one little
fellow got off in ample time, the one
left being but three yenre old, and
of course unable to appreciate his
danger. One of the lads, ten years old,
jumped for his companion and pulled
him away just as the pilot of the en
gine brushed against his clothing.
The engineer said: "When I saw the
bigger boy jump for the smaller one I
thought that there would be two killed
outright instead of one."
On a recent winter day a boy of six,
fell through the ice, and. another boy,
aged ten, catching him by the collar,
tried to pull him out, but he was not
strong enough, so he called for another
boy, a lad of but eight years, and with
his help they saved their companion.
They were all in a peculiarly perilous
position, and the wonder Is that any of
the three escaped alive, yet with the
Indifference to danger characteristic of
most boys when their sympathies are
East and South
