The remainder of the atom acts as a charged body though we do not know as yet whether the positive charge is due to a special positive electron or not If it is we have hot yet succeeded in Isolating the positive electron but it is supposed to be about ten times heavier than the electron In any case7 wo have here an elementary negative charge of about one ten billionth of the absolute unit and an elementary positive charge of the same amount These elementary charges attract each other and repel similar charges They can associate with clusters of neutral particles A negative electron thus associated with ordinary matter becomes a "negative ion" and a positive electron becomes a "positive Conduction consists of the wandering of positive ions down the potential gradient and of nega tive ions up the potential gradient This wandering can take place In metals It then produces heat by collision with the molecules of the metal and a magnetic field by the motion of the charges In a liquid the energy of motion is consumed In the splitting up or of neutral molecules Every current of heat is asso ciated with a transportation of ions and here the whole field of thermo electricity is entersd In the vacuum tube ions move with less restraint Negative electrons are shot off from the cathode with the velocity of light or something very nearly approach ing It and when they strike upon a solid thsy produce explosive ether waves ofre markable penetrating power which are known as 'Roentgen rays Where they hit gaseous particles they ionize them and in doing so develop great heat and light thus giving rise to the whole fascinating vista of vacuum discharges Nor is their wonderful activltyconfined to the fields enumerated for the whole phe nomena of magnetism are based upon the electron Whsnever an atom has a high valency suclj as Iron cobalt or nickel It appears that the free electros which con stitute these valencies revolve around the rest of ths atom These revolutions produce whirls in the ether which are known as magnetic displacements or stresses or "lines" of force" and whenever a tor a body containing free movable Ions (say qn? for every 500) neutral atoms) is tmoved through these whirls the ions are set moving in opposite directions with a velocity of about one centimeter per sec ond and we have the whole phanomena of induced currents i The enormous rapidity of the magnetic revolutions may be judged from their prob able period which is about one trilllonth of a second In the electric arc we have not only a great exchange of opposite ions but this ionizing action of ultra violet light and Elster an1 Geltel have shown bow this ionization action of ultra violet light may lead to the elucidation of all the problems of atmospheric elactriclty The latest 'in formation as recently supplied by us" goes to show that ionization is constantly going on wherever there is matter and that some bodlss have the faculty of projecting either negative' electrons or positive with some force i There bodies like radium ac tinium and polonium are 'then said to be radioactive Hurmuxescu has gone further and proved that ths electrons revolving in magnets often shoot off at a tangent and a liquid in which they are VkTnrvA! a How It Won a ortune and or a Rus tic of Connecticut MQRTHE 11 STEAMSHIP CO: EXCLUSIVELY PASSENGER STEAMSHIPS NORTH WEST ano NORTH LAND bAlLHSGa West bound Weaueauays and Bundays at 6:00 East Bound Mondays and ridays 12:30 ROM WHAR OOT CASS ST OTHER DRAWBACKS TO A CON SULAR POSITION Northwest Transportation Co Limited Lake Superior North Shore Line STRS URONIC MONARCH and UNIT ED EMPIRE leaving Sarnia every Tues day and riday at 3 for SAULT PORT ARTHUR ORT WILLIAM and "DULUTH making close connections with railways for all points west To secure tickets berths and for further information address ODETTE WHERRY Agts Windsor jp county 1 BUSSELIa 404 Chamber of ERE MARQUETTE 7 ort st Puai LEAVE erry Co Str Luna LAGOON PARK LINE Leaves 12th st 2 3:25 6 pm 7:25 9 and 10:30 Leaves Tiventy fourth street 1:40 3:10 4:40 7:10 nr 8:40 and 10:15 Music on board are round trip 10c 5c one way A Wide Open Letter to Tliat Great Army i of Weak Men Who Have Been Hoodwinked anil De frauded by the Infamous Rascals Who Disgrace the Medicine Business WILL PAY CASH Am always ready and willing to pay cash for genuine bargains In vacant or im proved property in Detroit and Wayne a A I 11 I CJ 4 'k Commerce the territories ingenuity la not therefore conceived the idea of the wholesale appropriation of th re lief which nature has provide'!

main cave had only been penetrated to a depth of 2w feet and even that distance could only lo reached by the possessors of small bodies At that time Dulton a young man from New York succeeded In creeping and crawling through the narrow erfwico at th" 200 foot point and over 100 feet further found the cavity gradually widening until it grew into a cavern much larger than that near the surface

Sample Experience of the Novice Who Thi nits the Art is Easy The fat man in the stern of the boat his more experienced companion at the 'oars was out for his first evening of bait casting Supper was over th the hotel the sun had sunk behind tho shoulders of the hill on the far side of the lake "the soft gray of twilight was on the water The surface was broken by a gentle breeze from the south just enough to disturb the vision of the fish below and prevent them from seeing the forms in the boat tbe air was warm it was ideal fishing time Here and there were swirls caused by bass striking at floating objects or a top water minnow Kingfishers flitted along the banks with rattling notes and from the lily pads came the deep bellow of bull frogs and the chirping of the smaller kind Dark would not come for an hour and that fat man thought that he bad plenty of time In which to learn all about casting He had seen the men practising from the pier in front of the hotel and was surethat It was simple enough You reeled up the bait until it was six Inches from the tip pf the rod carried the rod back: behind you brought Itsi forward with a semi circular sweep took the thumb from the reel as you brought the rod for ward releasing the line and the bait flew from forty to eighty feet out on the water That was all there was to it With a frog weighing a fall ounce hooked and harnessed he carried the rod tip back brought it forward and let go sThe frog struck the water ten feet 1 front of tho boat and the line piled up on the reel and snarled The frog had missed the oars man's ear by an inch The fat man "had held his thumb down until the tip was too far to the front he had brought the tip down Instead of up thus throwing tbe bait to the water: he had released his thumb when tbe water was struck and the reel had continued tn re voive piling up ioe line were pointed out toto correct them At the next cast down with all his stormed In midair away from the honk harness held and it was readjusted At the next he carried tip up so much that the bait soared skyward then came straight down Result a cast of eight feet more plled up line At tbe next he swuqg desperately andheld on The frog described a complete horizontal circle and the line was wrapped once about the fat man neck the frog landing in the boat Ha as growing warm by this time "but listened to his companion's suggestion that tn casting not strength in needed so as accuracy and wrist motion" Result he igot out twenty five feet of llne and the frog landed In the proper place a i LooKea pieasea until glancing

notarial fees received the salary of the 'consul general at Hali fax Nova Scotia la $3500 while his notarial fees amount to but $82 It willbe seen therefore that the matter of notarial fees enters very largely intp the total income of a consulship as at Singapore the salary Is $3000: and the notarial fees only $158" few Instances serve to show thfe great discrepancy existing in combined fees and calaries and they may be taken as examples of the entire service 'This fact will make it clear to the public why counsulships are so sought after while for others paying salaries equal or nearly

much impressed by what one or two told said a Washingtonian while commenting 4upon his trip to a Star man this country a consulship is considered among the cream of ik litical plums and to a large extent this popular impression Is well found ed vas at 11 tijnes the 'sngest kipdjbf administration in jluencet pull one down In certain however this importance does jwt Attach abroad where it Is recog nized that consular service lacks ip lA'ell known essentials advantages which are possessed In the service of countries In brief with a few exceptions the pay is insufficient if the quarters and appurtenances usually maintained by our consuls were indicative of the real wealth tieadth population power and great ness of the United States the United States as a country might be consid ered to a foreigner about as large trritorially and otherwise as the state of New York In the Instances which I will give you to serve as examples our consulships are much overrated save as a change of place of resi dence ns the salaries are not high and the i cost of living Is such than saving Is out of the question as the position carries with it a certain dig nity as commercial rep resentative which must be and usu ally is maintained I have never seen the consul ates separated into classes I have prepared a few facts and figures from official sources which will bo found to be of general interest since there would appear to be a misapprehension as regards fees official and notarial salaries etc Classification and Salaries Paid general terms there are forty consulates general 201 consulates and ten commercial agencies carrying salaries The Incumbents of these latter offices are not permitted to en gage in business There are how ever eleven salaried consulates where the Incumbents are permitted to en gage in business and thirty eight con sulates and sixteen commercial agencies paying fees where the in cumbents may engage in business or 318 United States consulates and com mercial agencies in all highest salaried United States consulate I believe is at Bangkok Siam carrying a salary Of $7500 but the consul is also minister resident official fees are turned Into the treasury but the consul may retain the notarial fees which at some con sulates are very heavy nearly equal ing1 the salary sometimes exceeding It and at others of slight importance Where no salaries are paid" the consul retains all fees and the lowestsalary is $1000 The remaining offices retain fees Thus while the salary of the consul at Bangkok is $7500 his notar ial fees last year were and the official fees but $404 Jumping to the other extreme the salary of the con sul general at Paris rance is $5000 his notarial fees $9 92g making his total income about $15000 a year? while his official fees were $58000 the latter going infd the treasury Under the old system of retaining all fees this office and that of the consul general at London were rich prizes to their incumbents i are ten United States con
