"Distem Associate Justice McReynolds ol the United States Supreme court pref aces nearly everything he has to say with a story. Occasionally McReynolds tells a story with a point so subtle that only those with a keenly pitched sense of humor can ••get” him. One night at a dinner he sprang something that oc casioned not the slightest ripple of laughter. He waited a reasonable length of time and then observed: “Well, at least don't cry about it.” Nobody got that either. They didn't understand what it was that they weren't to cry about. So McRey nolds added: “It’ll come in, may be by freight.” An Englishman was seated next to McReynolds, and his curiosity was aroused. “What do you mean when you say come by freight?” he inquired. “Slowly, like a freight train," ex plained .McReynolds; they 11 get the story if they wait long enough, don't you see?” A great light dawned in the Englishman’s eyes. "Ah,” he exclaimed, ''you mean steam packet. Story shipped by steam packet. 'Twould be utterly absurd, wouldn’t it—ha, ha, ha.” f EXPERIMENTS W)TH~WHiTE RATS Philadelphians were perturbed re • cently over the publication of the re sults of a series of experiments with white rats which are being made by Helen Dean King at the Wistar In stitute of Anatomy and liiology of the Vniversitv of Pennsylvania. Shorn of its sensationalism and j half truths, the story of the experi ments with white rats now going on : at the institute is still interesting. By means of careful selection and mating j of brother and sister rats from the ; same litters, which is "the closest form ! of inbreeding possible," there is being ; developed a race bigger, heavier and , better in every way than the wdinary | rat. "And,” says Doctor King, "theo retically what can be done with rats can be done with other animals, (live me ten years longer and 1 may have found out something.” By following out her experiments it “might be pos sible to revolutionize the whole system of stock raising” and thereby increase the supply of meat and reduce the cost of living. Doctor King is the only woman in America who holds a professorship in research work, the only other woman in the world who has that honor being Mme. Curie of Paris. 1 “SUB” FOR KING VICTOR The duke of Genoa, who “subs" as king at the Quirinal while his nephew, Victor Emmanuel, is at the front, is fast proving himself a formidable rival of the latter for the affections of the Italian people. King Victor has ever been known as the most democratic sovereign in Europe. His "sub” has gone him one better for democracy and won for him self the sobriquet of the civilian king. The nearest the duke of Genoa comes to accepting any of the kinglx perquisites that go with his job is at four o’clock each day, when he goes for his drive in the country. Four cavalrymen surround his carriage and a corps of bicycle guards follow. The police won’t let him drive unless he accepts this escort. In the evening he makes up for it by walking about the streets of Rome in civilian clothes, accompanied only by his chief aid de camp. It was while amusing nimseir tnis way one evening that the duke saw a street car collide with a fat woman. Of all the men who leaped to her assistance, the duke got there first. She was quite uninjured, but the duke bundled her off to a hospital before she knew who had helped her. Half an hour later, when tfie duke returned to the Quirinal he sent his aid to the hospital to make certain she really was not injured. I NEW CHIEF OF YARDS AND DOCKS Civil Engineer Frederic R. Harris of the navy, recently appointed chief of the bureau of yards and docks, navy department, to succeed Civil Engineer Homer R. Stanford, has made au en viable record in connection with a number of important projects on which he was engaged since appoint ment to the navy corps of civil engi neers. Among his achievements was the solving of the problem that long had attached to the dry doek at the New York navy yard, the contract for which was awarded in 1905. Five years later, after several contractors had failed on the job, Civil Engineer Har ris took charge. He employed an en tirely new method of construction, he was instrumental in having the di mensions of the dock increased, and he successfully completed the work in 1912. In addition to many other achieve ments, Civil Engineer Harris devised a new method of construction to be used in the completion of the dry dock at Pearl harbor, Hawaii, the system involving the building and sinking of a series of floating caissons or sections. He has been concerned as an assistant in the construction of the state dry dock at Boston and the project of the contemplated municipal dry dock at New lork. He has been a valuable technical assistant to the department of justice, and he has been a lecturer at* the University of the City of New York, the New York college, and the Stevens Institute of Technology, as well as being the author of numerous technical papers. FACTS ABOUT DYNAMITE. In spite of all that has been said and written to the contrary, many*peo ple still have the idea that dynamite is exceedingly dangerous stuff to take liberties with, and that it will explode at the least shock. This is a mistake. Nothing less than a tremendous shock will make dynamite explode, and this shock is obtained by exploding a mixture of nitric acid, mercury and alcohol which in turn explodes the dynamite. ' MRS.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass It on to the bladder, where It often remains to Irritate and inflame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding It. Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urina tion. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome.
