BIG RADIUM DEAL. ..__._. iWhole Output of Trcnwith in Corn- wall, England. One of the biggest deals on re- cord in radium has just been car- ried out between the British Radi- um Corporation and a number of leading German scientists. The ar- rangement provides for practically the whole output of the Trenwith Mines in Cornwall, the total cost Ibeing put at $500,000 annually. Ger- a corner in British radium, and the success of several huge schemes of putting radium within popular reach the world over depended up- on an assured unlimited supply. gAmong the plans proposed by the "German scientists is one providing for the introduction. of radium into ’ various medicines and compounds, which are guaranteed to cure mala- dies like rheumatism, gout, sciatica, diabetes, heart weakness, etc. Then a “radium exhaler” is also prom- ised. ' This is a machine which, if plac~ ed in the centre of any room, gives forth emanations which have the same effect on the cloth-ed occu- pants of the room as if they had taken a journey to the radium baths at Johannsthal or Badgastein. The mud which is the refuse of pitch- blende after radium has been ex- tracted, is also to be treated and ,sold for “radio-mudbaths.” Radium salts, another invention, have uni- versal use. For example, a piece the size of a pin’s head, placed on electric light switches, keyholes, etc., will in darkness, indicate their location; while the same principle is also to be applied to ship’s com- passes, thus dispensing with arti- ficial light. When the scientists’ plans have matured, an extensive campaign is to be prosecuted in the ,United States for the wider use of iradium compounds. The result of ‘,new processes will be the more ra- Ipld consumption of radium, which will eventually be as easily obtain- ablye as pills. mans Wlll thus establish practically‘ments, for the redemption of INTERNATIONAL LESSON, APRIL 23.

He was the eigth ruler of Judah, his grandmother Athaliah’ s usurpation being the only break in the Davidic line in the history of Judah. The revolution by which he was placed on the thro e is the only one record in Judah’s long history. There were more stirring times in Israel. 1. J ehuâ€"He will ever be rememâ€" bered as the effective instrument in bringing to an end the house of Omri, according to the prophecy of Elijah. He was, with Bidkar, close to Ahab, and witnessed the official murder of Naboth, and heard as well the doom pronounced upon Ahab by the prophet. As command- ing officer in the army' of Jehoram, in the siege of Ramothgilead, J ehu was selected by the revolutionary party under Elisha to succeed the king who had been severely wound- ed and removed to Jezreel. Hastâ€" oning thither, he slew Jehoram, as well as Ahaziah, king of Judah, who was present, and, riding up to the palace, ordered the ruthless assassination of Jezebel, who had survived her husband, Ahab,‘twelve years. This bloodshed was followed by the destruction of all the princes of Ahab’s line, and the slaughter of the Baal worshipers at Samaria. J-ehu then reigned for twenty-eight BeershebamA village in the exâ€" treme south of Israel, famous as the residence of Abraham, Isaac, and Jaco . 2. Jehoash did that which was rightâ€"After the death of J ehoiada who for some years after the coro- nation continued as guardian for the young king, Jehoash is said by the chronicler (2 Chron. 24) to have departed somewhat from the way in which he had been instructed at any rate, the revolution was not complete from a religious point of view, for Jehoash still permitted the high places (hilltop sanctuaries of Baal), and leniently winked at the heathen sacrifices of the people {(3) . 4. All the moneyâ€"There were three sources from which this was drawn: (1) current coin; (2) assess- per- sonal vows (see Lev. 27. 2); (3) free- will offerings in coin. According to 2 Chron. 24, the principal source of revenue was the halfâ€"Shekel ap- pointed by Moses to be paid by every Israelite for the maintenance of the tabernacle (fixed. 30. 11-16). 5.

Repair the breaches of the house ‘â€"â€"Jehoash had been brought up sec- retly in a part of the temple, and it was natural for him to wish to restore its beauty and neglected worship. Under Athaliah the sec-- red treasures had been transport- ed to the house of Baal, and both the walls and the foundations of the temple were sadly in need of re- construction. 7. Jehoash called for Jehoiadaâ€" The plans of the boy king had mis- carried because of the shiftlessness of the priests. But now he had grown to full maturity. and he proâ€" ceeded to take the whole matter out of the hands of those who had done nothing, for it pained him to see the house of God falling into such rank decay. 9-12. How JehOash got together the money necessary to repair the temple, and how he disposed of it.

Countries From Which They Came and Origin of Names. The position taken up by the dancers gave the name to the “quadrille,” which is literal French for “a little square”; while “country dance” has no connection With rustic gymnastics, but is sim- ply a corruption of the French contre dance, which has reference to the position of the couples op- pOSIte to each other during the dance, says the London Globe. The “lancers” derived its name from the fact that this variation of the quadrille was originally impro- v1sed by a company of lancers for their own amusement while seated in their saddles. The “polka” is a Polish dance, and its name comes from the Bohemian word “pulka,” moaning half, and refers to the half step which occurs in this lively measure, of which the more grace- ful “schottische” is a variation; both names, like that of the nation- al dance of Poland, the “mazour~ ka,” being native terms. The short steps peculiar to the old time favoriteâ€"the “minuet”â€"â€"â€" gave the dance its name, the Latin, for “small” being “minutus.” The “waltz,” again, owes its name to its characteristic movement, the German “waltzen”-â€"â€"meaning to revolveâ€"«expressing the circling motion of the dancers. ., , named after its originator, while the less‘familiar dance known as the “tarantella” is so called be- cause its vigorous movements were suppbsed to be a certain antidote Ther“Rog.cr do Coverley” is... Square, recently, to face a threat- cular art. Herr Lampert, a not- able chef from Frankfort, had reached London on his crusade of reform, and had proclaimed, through his representative, Mr. A. Strauss-Collin : 1. That roasted meat or poultry needed no basting or fat if cooked by his method in a paper bag. 2.'That boiling could be effected without water. ' 3. That the too familiar phenom- enon of the shrinkage of joints dur- ing cooking was a needless waste, which he had now entirely succeed- ed in preventing. Herr Lampert, a stout, genial German lit up his invention, a small black, box-like oven, heated by gas land furnished'with a thermometer. The hot air merely circulated out- side an inner shell of iron, warming without taintaing the food. Four large slices of turbot were first placed in four bags of damp- proof and grease-proof paper, which were securely sealed by fold- .ing and refolding, and placed in the oven. Half a dozen tomatoes, a small pigeon, a large fillet of beef, some rolled saddle of mutton, and a piece of sirloin, weighing one pound four ounces, were placed in paper receptacles, and followed the turbot into what was practically a Turkish bath. There was no sus- picion of the smell of cooking. - In twentyw‘five minutes the un- scorched envelopes, containing the turbot were removed, and torn open. Instead of being burned the delicate fish was firm and beauti- fully white. Under the persuaswn of a fork the backbone came clean- ly away, and the flaky flesh tasted as if it had been perfectly boiled. Perhaps the fillet of beef prov1d- ed the greatest surprise of the day. As soon “as the paper cover was pierced a” gush'of war-m . essence (“gravy” would be a. most :inadcquate description) filled the plate.
