Much has been accomplished accomplished in the last few years, and there is a deep feeling in-'high scientific scientific quarters that the dreaded disease disease will not much longer resist or baffle the patient and devoted investigators. investigators. It is this confidence that lends added significance to Dr. Kelly's announcement. But. if there is hope in radium, the legislatures of the world should see to it that the hope is not dashed for the- poor, by the threatened radium trusts. In England as well as in continental continental "Europe warnings against the. monopolization and commercialization commercialization of. radium have been repeatedly repeatedly issued. Research laboratories are sighing for more of the marvelous marvelous element. Public sentiment will not stand for restraint of health and'the exploitation of sickness and alarm. If the medical community will demand the conservation and peopleization of radium, suitable steps to prevent radium trusts will not be unduly postponed. 4 "What," asks Dr. Evans, "has become of the old time neighbor?"

They were playing 4n the tiny back garden of their tiny Dutch home when Betty and her father and mother came by. / Bet-ty-.thought that they were the prettiest little Dutch girls she had ever seen. They had the reddest cheeks and the yellowest hair, and. such pretty dresses of gay striped cotton, with big black silk aprons. On "their heads were dainty white caps, and they wore wooden shoes. They smiled at the strangers, and then they suddenly became shy and ran into the house. They peeped out of the window at Betty, who smiled and waved a friendly hand at them. As she turned to go on, the little girls ran jit again, laughing laughing and waving their hands in turn. When Betty took out her little camera, they looked greatly interested, interested, and made signs to her that she might take their photographs if she wished. The little Dutch girls stood very still beside a bed of green cabbages while Betty focused the picture just right. Then she bent her head so that shô would not embarrass them by looking at them. "Click" went the camera, and Betty had her picture. picture. When she looked at the . little girls again, they were laughing and talking together as if it were the greatest joke in all the world to have your picture taken. She called called out, "Thank you !" to them, and ran on after her father and mother. mother. When she reached home, and all of the picture films had been printed, printed, Betty looked eagerly to find the one that was taken in Marken, the one of the dear little Dutch girls in >their tiny back garden by the cabbage cabbage bed. But when she found the picture at last, it was a very nice view of the tiny Dutch house, and the little gardèn, and the cabbage bed, but--just as the camera had clicked, while. Betty's head was bent--those little girls had thrown their black silk aprons up over their heads, and there was nothing to be seen of them but their stripèd skirts and wooden shoes. No wonder that they had laughed so merrily after the picture was taken ; and how Betty laughed, too, when she saw the . joke !--Youth's Companion. PEARLS OF TRUTH. The only time she had anything like a patient spirit for an ill turn to herself was immediately after house cleaning, when pride in the spotless aspects would uplift her through anguish. It was a genial man of the same breed who, being carried into his house on a shutter after. an accident, pulled his wife through the first shock of her grief by saying: "Never mind, Anna, I had a clean shirt on." Frequently neighborly action, checked in the sick room by inability inability to do more than put on hot cloths, turns loose in the kitchen with prodigious results. The household household is equipped in short order with pies, cakes, cookies, bread, doughnuts, doughnuts, turn overs, crullers, buns, biscuits, etc., to batten a battalion.
