The government regu lates the selling price, and it is therefore forcing us to ask CASH FOR ALL SALES OF FUEL. Clear Thinking and the Nothing is more of a help to clear thinking than careful speech. Very of ten we discover a flaw In our logic when we attempt to put it Into words, observes the Irish World. But some times we really have ideas, though we experience difficulty in expressing them. People of sympathetic natures are frequently dumb In the presence of sor row. Some who are very Intelligent are so silent and diffident that nobody ever gets the beneflt of their bright ideas. A recent poet has intimated that for the deep things of life language is al together inadequate; but, however that may be, it is the principal means at present by which human beings get close together. We learn to talk, as we say. In the first few years of life, and some of us get very little beyond that start In babyhood. We can ask for what we want to eat and drink, but we are un able to expresa sympathy tactfully and gracefully. We have a great many Ideas that we never try to put Into words, because we feel that we do not know the right words. We have not really learned to talk while we remain silent regarding the things which mean most to us. NEGLECTED CHILDREN Would Bo Less Crime. A St. Louis judge recently made the statement In an address delivered be fore a local bar association that “if one-fourth as much as is spent for keeping up our courts, jails, poorhouses and paupers was applied to help neg lected city children make a proper start tn life the high tide of crime surely would decrease.” This is a remarkable statement to make; but, coming from the source it does, it Is worthy of consideration of all philanthropic men and women. Had the speaker made his statement more general and applicable to the country as well as to the cities It would all the same be worthy of credence. The life of every one depends largely upon the start made. There are those who are started right and then depart from the straight but narrow path, but they are the exception and not the rule. Thousands of little unfortunates may be said to be born criminals, the offspring of criminal parentage. If not so born they are so bred. But it is true, as said by this St Louis judge, that if a benevolent and righteous pub lic would deal with the problem as It might there would be less crime and fewer criminals. — Knoxville Journal and Tribune.

In the fields of preventive medicine than it takes to tell about. •nd in all matters in which the public health is concerned the public health service does work which is not only un surpassed but unequaled tn any coun try of the world. This Is recognized and fully appreciated in Europe, and recently tn one of the chief medical journals of Europe high praise was given to the service for the extremely valuable information with regard to disease and preventive medicine which was disseminated by the agency of Ita bulletins and other publications. In fact, the United States public health service Is unique and is an institution of which this country has every reason to be proud. It remains as an ever ready foundation upon which to erect the department of public health when ever congress shall aee fit to establish it— Medical Record.

Mirs, the wonderful star In the con stellation Cetus (the Whale), stands foremost among those variable stars which have produced so much guess- work. Besides the theory that its even months' variations are due to the flickering up and down of gas. It has been conjectured that this distant sun is subject to particularly acute sun spots, that Its obscurations are due to eclipse by huge planets revolving round it end even, according to Maupertuis, that it Is not spherical in shape, as other heavenly bodies are, so that we see it sometimes In sections, some times in plane. Occasionally, as in 1789 and 1839. It has blazed up actual ly to first magnitude, while from 1672 to 1676 It disappeared altogether.—Bos ton Transcript Warming a Serpent.
