The sur prise the evening before was a very happy one and we supposed that was the end of it. and moved to Valentine on Saturday , just in time to miss the glorious time your party would have given us. Our hearts are filled with regret that we did not know you were coming , but in fancy we see your bright smiles and hear your merry laugh ter and the delightful songs by that matchless quartette ; and while we have sacrificed you as neigh bors we are happy to still hold your friendship. Our memories of you will ever be fond and tender and as lasting and life-long as the evergreen. Although we miss you deeply , you know the glad fwelcome of the clever hearts .of Valentine would make sunshine and happiness for anyone , so that we are indeed quite content in our little new home.

Selenium is a rare and little known element described by the United States Geological Survey as having its greatest use in the man ufacture of certain glasses to which it gives a red color and in coloring enameled ware red. It is used to overcome the natural green color o : ordinary glass and also in mak ing glass of a distinct red color such as that used on railroads for signal lights. Selenium has the peculiar property of being a very poor conductor of electricity in the dark and a fairly good conductor in the light , and a number of elec trical inventions depend on "this peculiarity. It has been used in experiments in telephoning along a ray of light , and for transmitting sounds and photographs from one place to another by means of a telephone or telegraph wire.
