tumorous department. A Brave Man.?Former Gov. William Sprague of Rhode Island celebrated last month his seventy-ninth birthday. He Is the only surviving war governor. A reporter questioned Gov. Sprague cne day at Narragansett about bravery. "There is a finer bravery shown In civil than In military life." the veteran statesman said. "I remember one of our Providence fire chiefs. "A green fireman resigned from the Providence service because his chief, he said, was cruel and Inhuman. "How cruel and Inhuman?' they asked him. " 'Why,' the fireman whined, 'at last week's tenement fire he ordered me to carry a section of hose right In be n-ttnn tn?A nralla fhot vvpro lust nil the point of tumbling.' "'And what did you do?' ' 'I refused, of course. I told the chief it was as much as a man's life was worth to go in there, and I wouldn't do it,' " 'Well what did the chief do then?' " 'Ha, ha. ha! The crazy fool carried the hose in himself.'" Tactless.?M. Pruger, the former manager of the fashionable and gay Savoy hotel in London, has come, at a salary of 150,000, to conduct a restaurant in New York. Discussing success with a reporter, M. Pruger said: "Success, leaving aside thorough practical ability, which we may take for granted?success depends on tact, on sympathy. "I'll illustrate this with an episode: A Manchester man took his wife to the Palace Music hall. The palace girls came on and did their notable 'danse aux jambes dans 1'air,' or 'dance of the uplifted limbs,' as one might say in English.' "The Manchester woman, regarding this dance, sniffed. 44 'Well, that beats me," she said. "Without either sympathy or tact, her husband chuckled: "You bet it does!'" The Barriers Down.?John Ford, who, as the English husband of Miss Cavendlsh-Bentlnck, is related to the Ogden Millses, the MatJiin Livingstons and many other noted New York families, talked, at a quiet dinner at the Plaza, about English society. "New York society," s Ud Mr. Ford, "is really more exclusive now than that of London. In London, last season, an episode was narrated that illustrated well the breaking down of the old barriers. " 'Society is going to the bow-wows,' grumbled a young marquis at a Piccadilly club. ' "'What's the matter now?' a friend inquired. " 'Money Lender's wife at reception Belgrave Square this afternoon,' said the marquis, 'wearing all my wife's emeralds.'" The Folly of th# Mean.?John D. Rockefeller never wearies of impressing on the young the folly of mean and parsimonious habits. In one of his most recent interviews he said: "These miserly people reap nothing but discomfort from their false economies. Take, for example, the case of Mrs. Silas Long of Sussex. " 'Martha,' said old Silas one fall day, 'I think I'll go and get a few apples from the orchard.' "He looked at her timidly. She said: " 'Well, be careful now Si, only to pick the bad ones.' " 'Suppose there ain't no bad ones, Martha?' " 'Then, ye'll have to wait till some goes bad, of course,' the old lady snapped. 'We can't afford to eat good, sound fruit wuth 3 cents a bushel.'" A Kneeling Proposition.?"Pony Moore, the once famous minstrel, Is dead at the age of 80. He was one of the last of his kind. "Moore," said a veteran Chicago manager, "used to make up his own Jokes. Once, when he played here, he had his toes run over, and limped on that night with a foot that resembled a white pillow. " 'Ah's ez tendah-hoofed as Liza Johnsing," he said to the audience, with a chuckle. 'Yo' know 'bout Liza? Young Calhoun White, he sez to her, proposin': " 'Whaffo' yo' make a face like dat when I propose. Miss Johnsing?' " 'Well, Cal.' says Liza, 'Ah kain't give yo' offah propah consideration less'n yo' takes yo' knee offn man co'n.'" He Was Generous.?Some time ago a crowd of Bowery sports went over to Philadelphia to see a prize fight. One "wise guy" who, among other things, is something of a pickpocket, was so sure of the result that he was willing to bet on it. "The Kid's goin' t' win. It's a pipe," he told a friend. The friend expressed doubts. "Sure he'll win," the pickpocket persisted. "I'll bet you a gold watch he wins." Still the friend doubted. "Why," exclaimed the pickpocket, "I'm wlllin' to bet you a good gold watch he wins! Y' know what I'll r>mmo thpnnph the train with V4\J . WlilV ?" " ?O me now, an' y' can pick out any old watch you like."?Everybody's Magazine. A Poor Defense.?"That is no de- J fense." The speaker, Capt. B. S. Osbon. was criticising the various attacks on Dr. Cook's veracity. "That defense," he resumed, "'reminds me of the Circleville woman's defense of her husband. "Her husband had not been at work for two days, and at the noon hour the man's boss met the woman In the street. "'Where's Dan?' he asked. " 'He's home,' she replied. "'Getting drunk, eh?' 'No, Mr. Burlington, he ain't getting drunk," she said indignantly. '"Well, what then?' " 'Getting sober, sir.' " Not Yot.?A Missouri clergyman had In his pastoral flock a member who was reluctant about meeting the contribu lion uasnei. ine pasior nao iiuuwn out many bmad hints, but all to no avail. One day the member fell ill and was taken to the Ensworth hospital. When the clergyman arrived the man was delirious. While the pastor was sitting beside his bed a wild yell of "Fire! Fire!" came from across the street. The sick m?n drew himelf upon his elbows. "Where?where am I!" he asked excitedly. "Calm yourself, brother," soothed the pastor, with Just the faintest twinkle In his eye. "You are still at the Ensworth hospital!"?Lippincott's. Miscellaneous grading. NEW CONCEPTION OF MATTER. Energy Stored In Every Substance and Kept Under Restraint. The most Interesting part of Sir. J. J. Thomson's address to the British association, perhaps, says the London Globe, Is that which relates to the new conception of matter necessitated by recent discoveries. The great advantage of the electrical method of studying the properties of matter is that an electrified particle is easily identified, while an uncharged one is most elusive. Thus it is pointed out that the number of molecules In the smallest quantity or tne eiemeni neon winon can be identified by the spectroscope is about 7,000 times the population of the earth. On the other hand, Rutherford has shown that a single alphaparticle from radium, that is a single charged atom of helium, can be detected by electrical methods. The smallest quantity of helium which could be detected otherwise would contain a million million atoms. The atom is made up of electrons, and it has been found possible to make some estimate of the size of these parts of the "indivisible." Negative electricity is atomic in its structure, being made up of electrons, or "corpuscles, as Sir J. J. Thompson prefers to cail them. The mass of this electrical unit is only one-seventeenth-hundredth part of the atom of hydrogen. It perhaps conveys a clearer idea to say that "the volume of a corpuscle bears to that of the atom about the same relation to that of a speck of dust to the volume of this room." If it may be supposed that negative electricity is atomic in its structure, is it not to be expected that positive electricity is so also? The lack of evidence that this is so has hitherto been a difficulty in the electrical theory of matter. Now, however, Sir J. J. Thomson mums uicic 10 cviuciivo v& mv nature of positive electricity. The positive particles, known as "canalstrahlen," discovered by Dr. Goldstein, are found to be the same from whatever rareled gas they are derived. From this It is assumed that the atoms of the different elements contain definite units of positive as well as of negative electricity. But the evidence seems to show that the order of magnitude of the positive unit Is vastly greater than that of the negative. The only positive units yet discovered are as large as atoms of hy.drogen. And the energy stored up In the negative corpuscles is far greater than that in the positive. And this gives rise to an interesting suggestion made by Sir J. J. Thomson In the course of his address. The positive particles may have been originally as small, and as richly endowed with energy, as the others. In the course of ages they may have expanded to their present size, with a consequent loss of energy. There may, however, still be some of the smaller ones lingering in the radioactive substances, and it is perhaps by the explosion of these that the energy of radiation Is produced. The energy stored up In ordinary matter on the electron theory is enormous. Assuming that each atom of hydrogen contained only one corpuscle ?and the probable number is several hundred?then one grain of it would contain as much energy as that produced by burning five tons of coal. And all ordinary matter contains this vast store of energy kept fast bound by the corpuscles. If any appreciable fraction of this were at any time to escape. it Is pointed out, that the earth would explode and become a gaseous nebula. MR. PLAZAZUS' RECORD. One of the Reasons Why He Couldn't Get Extension of Credit. "We're pretty nearly sting proof," said a banker the other day. "Any time any one puts one over on us he'll have to operate with a mace. Nowadays no bit of information about a client's personal character is considered too pennyroyal for us to notice it." The statement was called out by the presence on the banker's desk of a large roll of manuscript reports, pinned together. The unfortunate who had been made a subject of an antemortem had always thought- himself a pretty fair sort of a citizen. He hadn't done anything very objectionable, beyond getting stewed now and then, riding a bit too fast In autos and acting as a chronic host for Broadway's chorus girls, the New York correspondent of the Cincinnati Times-Star says. It so happened that he wanted an extension of credit and had applied to his bank for It. And the credit man did the rest. "We have here," said the banker, "the usual Dun and Bradstreet reports on Mr. Plazazuz. We have a highly entertaining series of clippings, In which our late client appears as the leading man in a lot of funny doings by electric light. We also have state menis irom every man ne nas ever worked for and so far as possible every man has ever done business with. And still we haven't enough. I have asked for a special report upon certain phases of his activity that are not shown here. Every bank in New York has been victimized at various times by men who offer us an apparently clean bill of health. We don't find out until it is everlastingly too late that they are sufferers from a moral pip. Nowadays a man to get credit standing at a New York bank must pass an examination that would send the average deacon howling to the woods." In Mr. Plazazus' case his request for a loan was refused and he was asked to take his account out. Not that it wasn't sound financially, but two years ago he had been jobbed by a bunch of shell workers. "A man," said the bank president, "who tries to get money in that way expects to profit by a dishonest game. He's apt to try to hand us a queer check next time he gets hard up. That experience of his proves him to be not merely a fool, but a dishonest fool. We can't afford to waste time on either class." .*< ' This advice to young men is taken from the Busy Man's Magazine: "Whether you handle a pick or a pen, a wheelbarrow or a set of books, dig ditches or edit a paper, ring an auction bell or write funny things?you must work. If you will look around you, you will see that men who are most able to live the rest of their days without work are the men who work the hardest. Don't fear of killing yourself by overwork. it's the interval that kills. The work gives you a perfect and graceful appreciation of a holiday. There are young men who do not work, but the world is not proud of them: It simply speaks of them as So-and-So's boy. Nobody likes them; the great busy world doesn't know they are here. The busier you are, the less harm you will be apt to get into, the sweeter will be your sleep, the brighter and happier your holidays, and the better satisfied the world will be with you." Men who win out are not built on any original and peculiar plan, nor are they blessed with especial luck. They have conquered the "take It easy" habit: that's all. Lawyer (to timid young woman)?

I understand that Dr. F. L. Llghtfoot urged him to keep up the Insurance and suggested that he would advance the 1909 premium to the Company for him, but my son did not want him to do this. My son went out west last summer and was killed by a traction engine. 1 was very much surprised to learn that the Mutual Benefit had extended the policy, In accordance with Its provisions, and that it was still good, although my son had made only one payment. I am Informed that no other company In the world would have paid this loss when only one premium had been paid. I am truly grateful to the Company for the $1,000 check, and would llk? to say that this only shows the importance of Insurance, and that your Company Is surely a most generous one in protecting policyholders when they fail to protect themselves, as my son did. Yours very truly, Ida Bivens. The above letter tells of only one of the numerous advantages that Mutual Benefit policies possess over those of all other Companies. They are better and cost less.
