Adopting the well-known hypothesis of Helmhollz, which attributes the production of tho-heat emitted by the sun to Its contraction, an Idea can be formed of the sun's duration. If one gives to the sun a co-efflclent of ex panBlon intermediate between that of mercury and that of gas, one arrives at the conclusion that it has taken one million to three million years for the sun to contract to; Its present radius; In particular, It would have taken ten thousand years to contract from Infinity to a radius twlco Its present radius. Finally, the sun will take 200,000,000 years to contract from Us present radius to half that radius, and even then Us temperature at the surface will b 3,000 degrees. Scientific American. 1 f Build Island of Concrete. An artificial Island of reinforced concrete has been built In the Medi terranean at Hyeres strait, near Tou lon, the groat French naval base, which Is to be used solely for testing torpedoes. The island Is not a large one, being less than 80 feet long by about 60 feet broad, and Is built upon a reinforced concrete caisson which was towed out from Toulon and sub merged. It Is divided Into compart ments by walls 4 feet thick, in the largest of which, 10 root below the Bea level, the t6rpedoes are handled. Pro jecting from this, compartment are three torpedo tubes, whllo above the surfaco of the water, 10 feet In the air, ado two aerial-torpedo tubes. The operanng mechanism, which usee elec tricity as a motive power. Is all con talndd In the superstructure built over tho caisson, and lighting and ventilat ing systems as well as wireless and searchlights are provided. An electric crane extending out from one side permits the torpedoes to be lifted from the water and returned to their sta tions after practise. Popular Mechan ics. Missionaries Discover Waterfall. Father Coibacchinl of the Salcsian order, founded by Don Bosco, which has important mission stations among the Indians of Brazil, reports the dis covery of a great waterfall on the Rio das Mortes, In the Matto Grosso, which he named after Plus X The Rio das Mortes, which Is be tween 150 and 200 meters wide and more than two meters deep in its higher course, narrows down gradual ly to about eight meters, and the im mense volume of Its waters dashes down through a mass of high rocks in a" wonderful waterfall more than 500 meters long. Father Coibacchinl had the name of Pius X cut In the rock near the waterfall and erected a large cross made from the branches of two trees on the brink of the water. He then explored tho lower course of the river. The surface of the region crossed by Father Coibacchinl and his party of Bororos Is covered by strata of sandstone deeply eroded and In dented by water, and the river basin was surrounded by ridges and ranges of hills. New York Sun. Ne'w Paper Fabric. The Boston News Bureau says that at thj sugar mills of the NIpe Bay company In Cuba more bagasse or refuse Is being developed from the cane than Is ded for fuel and that the surplus Is ' lg made Into paper. It says that thlt is of a "splen did grade," sellt. ? at high figures and good profit. Thlsossiblllty has been discussed often and sugar cane Is not the only product considered capable 'of such use. Over in the Philippines one of the difficulties of agriculture Is the rapidity with which the cogon grass springs up and occu pies the soil. Many experiments have been made with this fibrous substance in the way of papermaking and good prospects have 'been reported. If It proves available, we shall have a crop, self-sowed, which ripens In a few months, as against the spruce, which, if it revives at all, takes 20 years for renewal. The Bottle Tre. The Stercullas Is a genus largely represented In Queensland, and wide ly distributed. To It belongs the bot tle tree of the west of Queensland. Blacks eat the seeds of one of the species of the coast, and In the Phil ippines those of apparently a closely allied species ara- considered whole some when roasted or boiled, though eaten In large quantities. The tree belongs to a good family, being re lated to the Theobroma (food of the gods), which supplies the world with cocoa and chocolate. When the fruit' epllts open It Is a brilliant scarlet with orange-tinted Interior; along the part ed edges are the seeds, oval and black, covered with a rich purple bloom. The fruit, being tough and leathery, It re mains on the tree a long time, forming a most effective display In the gloom of the jungle. Boiling- Down a. Profession. A young fellow living In one of In diana's small towns was graduated from the high school ana looked about for some easy, yet lucrative profes sion. He finally decided to study medicine, and settled down In the of fice of the town's most popular doc tor for "a summer's reading. As he read he watched .this busy man's hours of work. One day In the late summer the doctor came In out of a drenching rain, tired out, and a trifle cross. Glancing at the immaculate young fellow, whose heels were repos ing on the office desk, he asked brusquely: "Still think you want to bo a doctor?" "Ye es," came the lan guid answer, "but l'e decided to prac tise only on fair days, and not go out of nights." Pre$ervatlve of- Youth. None 'of the nature studies requires much money or time.

(By Dennis S. Thompson.) In these days of unprecedented hustle and bustle, one reads and hears much about the great unrest andstruggle for places of honor In tho"cconomlc and social affairs 6t our lives. From every avenue of hu man endeavor comes the cry of dis satisfaction; in one Instance it is tho religious leader who Is not meas uring up to the standard tho people havo expected him to set, while on the other hand, It may be that the leading educator of the community has not conducted his affalrB In such a manner as to recelvo the full glory of the people. Tho newspaper editor is unpopular because ho cannot publish every In significant happening, and the re porter or correspondent has hard things, said about him because ho is unable to take notice c? every trifle that comes up In the community. It happens nowadays that every fellow has some faults, and many of them argue that things were not so away back In the good old days. I am of the opinion that the people have always had faults, but the dif ference now Is that there are so many more peoplo that it Is easier to no tice these little shortcomings t-.at distress so many of us. Wo are very religious, but we soon come to have a dislike for the pastor of our church if he points out the right way of living. Some desire their children to be properly educated but If the school's principal corrects them ns to how best get through life, they say It Is a poor school, and aro ready to make a complaint to the board of education. And so it happens all along the line. They say we must change or the church will die, or tho school will go to pieces; we muBt have a new preacher and another principal; we must keep the people together. This keeping of the people together Is Just the thing that Is hurting us now, from the fact that too many a'e together on the wrong Idea. It 13 to the advantage of any people, hovuver, to come together on the right thing, in that It strengthens and makes them appear more representative. 1 It would be better for each one to bear in mind how necessary It is for us to do our duty before condemning the other fellonv If we would give 1 our churches the proper support, I moral and financial, we could prob ably see the pastor In a different light, as in the same manner our schools. It we could read more Negro news papers, pay for them, and encourage them, we could have good newspap ers, Instead ot always abusing their quality. The samo holds good In all lines of business; we must help to es tablish a substantial business among our own folk; and If we are not able to give financial aid all the time, let us not find fault but always speak a good word. There are many persons who are not willing to help the race In any way, a class of self-appointed leaders In every movement that takes form I nthe community but finds fault and causes unrest among others, and In -many Instances bears a good name among the people. Tho great majority of the people will be more than likely to follow the person with a good name, but when one stops to consider the mat ter, they will find there Is a vast dif ference between a good name and character. It would seem, then, that we should prefer being influenced by peoplo of good character, rather than by those with tho good name. Character Is one ot the greatest mo tive powers In the world. In Its noblest embodiments, it exemplifies human nature in its highest forms, for it exhibits man at his best. Although genius always commands admiration, character most secures respect. The former is more the product of brain power, the latter of heart power, and In the long run It Is the heart that rules In life. Men of genius stand to society In its relation of Its intellect as men of character of Its conscience, and while tho for mer are admired, the latter are fol lowed. Commonplace though it rmy ap pear, this doing of .one's duty embod ies the highest ideal of life aw character. There may 'be nothing heroic about it, but the common lot of men Is not heroic. And though the abiding sense of duty upholds man In his highest attitudes, It also equal ly sustains him in the transaction of the ordinary affairs ot every-day ex istence, Man's life Is "centered In the sphere of common duties." The most influential ot all the virtues are those which are most in request for dally use. They wear the best, and last the longest. Character, then, is the noblest ot possessions. It Is an es tate in the general good will and re spect of men; they who invest In It though they may not become rich In this world's good will find their reward In esteem and reputation fair ly and honorably won. It is appar ently expedient, then, that In life good qualities should be foremost. If we aro to continue to rise in life we must combine those princi ples that are going to contribute to our better interests. We must -exclude from our social and our business lite as well, the lit tle tangles which are tho outcome of struggles for superiority and empty honors, which are ot na avail to any one, but only tend to aggravate and create a spirit of unrest in the af fairs of society, The ono thing most to bo sought after Is simply honesty of purpose, which In a person goes a long way In life, if founded on a Just estimate, and a steady obedience to tho rule, which, one knows and feels to be right.
