( . We Must Send Them Out to Play .
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX..
-., (Copyright, 1913, by Am erican-Jouroal-Examlner.)
"Now much there 1b need of doing must not be done In haste; '
But slowly and with patience, as a junglo Is changed to a town.
But listen, ray brothers, listen; it 1b not always so.
(When a murderer's hand is lifted to kill there la no time to waste;
And the way to change his purpose Is firstto knock him down
And teach h(m the law of kindness after you give him the blow.
jThe acorn you plant in the morning will not give shade at noon;
AhO. the thornlosB cactus must be bred by year on year of, toll.
.,! But listen,' my brothers, listen; It is not ever the way.
For the rooU of the' poison ivy plant you cannot pull too soon;
If you would better your garden and mako the most of your soil,
' Hurry and dig up the evil things and cast them out today.
SCho ancient sin of the nations no law can ever efface;
We must wait for tho mothers of men to grow, and give clean souls to
their sons.
, But listen, my Brothers, listen when a child cries out in pain,
"We must rho from tho banquet board and go, though the host is saying
grace;
J We must rise and" find the Herod of Greed, who is killing our little ones,
Nor over go back to tho banquet until tho monster is slain.
Tho strdng man waits for justice, with lifted soul and eyes,
As a Bturdy oak will face the storm, and does not break or bow.
But listen, my brothers, listen; the child Is a child for a day;
If a merciless foot treads down each shoot, how can the forest rise?
We are robbing tho race when wo rob a child; wo must rescue the
children now;
' Wo muBt roscue tho llttlo slaves of Greed and send them out to play.

John Hampden
-.J
By REV. THOMAS B, GREGORY
The trial of John Hampden before tho
Court of Exchequer 278 years ago, June
12, 16S7, will always remain a red letter
date in the history of human liberty
King Charles I, In
his attempt to
strangle the free
dom of the people,
was' moving heaven
and earth in the ef
fort to raise money.
He resorted to
every possible shift
to put money in his
purse, and among
'other things he
thought of the
"ship money"
dodge. Away back
yonder In the an
cient time taxes had been exacted of the
people for the support of the fleet In
time of great national peril; and although
there was now no national peril, and no
custom of paying "ship money," Charles
revived the old demand and proceeded to
collect his "ship money."
But everywhere he met with the) most
determined opposition, the moat stal
wart of ;the kickers being John Hampden,
the rock-ribbed patriot and bosom friend
of Sir John Eliot, the Washington of the
great English struggle' for freedom.
Of course it was a great crime to re
sist the will of the king, and Hampden,
being the leader, as it were, In the re
sistance, was brought to trial. It was
really the trial of the people of England,
or, rather, of the question. "Have the
people of England any rights as against
the king and his henchmen in church
and stateT" and the excitement all over
the country was Intense,
As might have been expected the hire
ling court decided that the king' could
do no wrong, that his "divinely guided"
will was supreme, and that Hampden,
in refusing to obey his majesty, was
guilty of high treason. Let it be remem
bered, however, that even in the Court
of .Exchequer there were men brave
enough and true enough to prefer right
to the king's favor, and that white seven
of the Judges voted against Hampden,
five of them cast their ballots ,tn his
favor.
The trial made Hampden the most pop
ular man In England and stiffened' the
cackbohe ' of the nation in its struggle
against the would-be destroyer of the pop
ular liberties, with the final result that
'the klnff tost and Hampden won. In the
battle-clash' between the- plain human
rights of the people and the "divine
rights" of the king, Hampden died glori
ously upon the battlefield fighting for
humanity against kingcraft, and while
men love liberty and justice his name will
never perish from the earth.
Beauty Secrets of Beautiful "Women
Deep Breathing Lessons from1 Miss Zoo Barnett.
Ity LILLIAN liAUPEIlTY.
Most' of us realize what a wonderful it
iumlhatlon for the face la afforded by a
beautiful pair of eyes. And yot, cither
because we are lazy or have a touching
faith In Providence, wo do absolutely
nothing to conserve and preservo tho
health of those hard-working members of
our bodily organization. 1
But 2 have found a llttlo girl who seems
to feel that she owes something to theso
good friends who do so much for her.
"There Is nothing more beautiful than
beautiful eyes and tho prettier they are
the harder they havo to work," said little
Molllo King, of tho Winter Qarden "Pass,
lng 8hov of 1913."
One naturally says "Little Motile," be
cnuso the simple little whlto shirtwaist
and white felt hat so earnestly bespeak
youth in tho flush of her beginning
career, and Mollle King's whole eager
manner and girlish desire to please make
"tittle and young" come trooping to your
mtnd when describing this clever girl.
"Now, all the while I am doing my
Anna Held Imitation my eyes aro under
a strain. Thoso muscles get Just as tired
as any hard-working muscles In the body
would, and so I keep them In training.
But even If you aro not 'using your eyes
In tho way I have to, they arc working
all tho time. So 'I feel suro It would be
wise for other girls to follow my treat
ment. "Every morning I give my eycA, a cold
water .massage, and this Is the recipe for
the new kind of massage: Cup your palm
and fill It with cold water again and
again, and dash the water briskly at your
eyes. About thirty times for each eye Is
my treatment, and they do feel so fine
and active with tho blood coursing
through them.
"When my eyes are very tired I batho
them first with hot and then with cold
water. This treatment I go about gently
and It rests eyes and nerves too and
brings color to the chunks at the same
time. Every night and whenever I come
In from any outdoor excursion that has
been very dusty I batho my eyes with a
weak solution of boraclo acid. Sometimes
I wipe' them out with a bit of soft cloth
and sometimes I apply tho boracld acid
solution In an eye cup and, hold It against
tho eye ball for a nice, long, restful
time.
"Then I have Just one beauty secret
for my eyebrows," went on Miss Mollle
with aregular llttlo-glrl-dressed-up-llke-a-ladj
alr of secrecy. 'I have the cutest
little brush for my eyebrows, it is wee
like a baby's tooth bniBh, If there are
such things. And with that I patiently
brush my eyebrows In Just the shapu .1
want them to go. I like tho little half
.circles, but you could train your eyebrows
into crescents or any set of curyo you
fett was most becoming."
"And how about your mind and body
and disposition? I feel sure you must
have more 'beauty secrets to help you
attain success so early In life," said I.
"Let's nee," meditated Miss Mollle. "I
think to be simple, and have a sweet
manner and not to get a 'swelled head'
are tho best things for a girl to remem
ber. You know any young girl who wants
to get ahead in tho world has to know
she can't mix work and play but has to
keep up with tho procession. You mustn't
begrudgb others their success but must
really wln your own for yourself and
not make any enemies on your way to
glory. Everyone has h chance, you know
and other people getting ahead does not
keep you from getting thero to.
"And then If girls would get the ath
letlo habit, I am sure they would not
havo to worry about getting thin. Ten
nis and' swimming and dancing for tho
summer and plenty of ice skating In the
winter will keep your flesh down and
your cheeks aglow and athletics help the
other eye treatment too. You know beau
tiful eyes aro my dream of loveliness,
and outdoor exercise to keep the sysfem
li trim and the blood racing along In a
healthy stream will brighten those
healthy eyes I have told you how to ac
quire." And Molllo King's advice certainly
sounds as if it were worth following

Mysteies of Science and Nature
With the Aid of Photography and the Ultra-Violet,
ttfe Man's Power of Vision is Beginning to
m Rival That of the Insects.
By GARRETT P. SKRVISS.
Man is beginning to add to his senses.
If he has not discovered new ones, he has
extended the range of some of those
which he already possesses. When this
process has been
continued for a few
hundred, or a few
thousand, years,
the human race
may find that it
has got upon a
new level, from
Which It can pene
trate much farther

guldanoe of science.
to see in a roundabout way, with the
eyes of Insects.
To understand this, let us first consider
how we see with our natural power of
vision.
Our range of eight is strictly confined
within the limits of waves of light, vary
lng In length from about one is.OOOtH to
about ope PT.OOOth of an. Inch- The longest
of these 'waves- produces In our brains
the Impression of red, arid the shortust
the Impression of violet. The other
principal colors (orange, yellow, green,
blue and indlgO) are produced by inter
mediate Wavo-Iengths, each color having
Its own characteristic waves.
If an object reflects light of only one
of these colors it assumes the bus of that
color; If It reflect them all equally, it

appears white, because a combination
of the primary colors produces the Im
pression of white.
But there are. In reality, enormous
numbers of light waves which are longer
than the longest that affect our sense
of vision, and also enormous numbers
that are shorter than the shortest that
we can see. In either case theso waves,
which lie beyond one end or the other
of what is called the "visible spectrum"
of tight, are, except for scientific de
vices, totally Insensible to us.
Now, it has been found that certain In
socts, particularly ants, can perceive light
waves that are shorter than one C7,Wth
of an Inch, which is the lower limit for
human eyes.
In other words, tho ant can "see" a
color that lies outside tho violet. If the
ant has. a name for this "ultra-violet"
color we are not likely to find It out.
More that that, the ant (if It possesses
microscopic powers) may be able to see
obJecU that are so minute that a "40,000,-OOO.poo-power"
microscope would be un
able' to reveal them to us, because they
are smaller than the smallest light wave
that lies within our range. An object
small as that would be unable to roflost
perfectly a wave of violet ljght. and con
sequently np amount of direct magnifica
tion would' be able -tp bring it clearly
within the limits of sight for us. '
Bur right here the maglo power of
photography comts to our aid and en
ables us to penetrate Into this world of
the infinitely minute, which the insects
may be supposed to have regarded as
their exclusive and Inviolable domain.
Photography U able to dq this because
the sensitive plate or film la affected by
Harnett.

those same ultra-violet waves that the
ant perceives.
Suppose, 'then, that an object Is so
small that It cannot reflect the vlolt
waves, but can reflect the smaller ultra
violet ones. It is only necessary to make
a photograph of it, whereupon the ultra
violet waves that it reflect will produce
a chemical, change In the sensitive sur
face of the photographlo plats or film
and Impress on image there, which
Image may be magnified at will. This is
tho principle of the "ultra-violet micro
scope," There is another way In which man hat
recently extended his range of vision
Indirectly, deep Into tho secrets of the
Infinitely minute. It has been dope by
the aid of what is called the "ultra
microscope." This depends for Its action
upon tho fact that a minute object pro
duces a scattering of the rays of light
that fall upon it. It surrounds ltselt
with a kind of aureole, as may be natlced
when a beam of sunlight enters a dusty
room, causing millions of previously In
visible floating particles to glow Ilka In
finitesimal stars.
Suppose that an object of this kind,
too smalt to be seen by direct microscope
examination, yet large enough to reflect
the lights waves that lie within our range,
is placed under powerful lenses, In a
beam of light so' arranged that It does
not pour directly Into the eye of the,
observer. It will scatter about 'Itself
enough light not only to betray Its pres
ence but even in some cases to reveal its
doubtless we have only Just begun
to find out the power of the mind by Us
inventions to extend the range of our
senses.

Soon after the British Parliament
passed a law forbidding the cutting down
of trees for fuel, Sir Walter Raleigh's
expedition In 1586 discovered iron in this
country, and In 1608
a cargo of ore
was shipped from
Virginia to Eng
land and success
fully smelted. In
1664, tho first iron

near Lynn, Mass,
In 1740, Huntsman
Introduced the cru

various mechanical
devices were pat
ented about that
time, which ma
terially stimulated
the steel Industry.
In 1838, the Inven
tion of J. B, Nlel
son the Introduc
tion of a heated
blast caused a tremendous Increase In
output. This Improvement was accom
panied by Nasmyth's steam hammer, and
In 1856 Bessenier gave to the world a
process (hat was astonishing and remark
able. The discovery of the Bessemer
process made It possible to produce steel
at such low cost as to extend Its use
widely, and did much to supersede
wrought Iron In structural work.
Bessemer steel la now almost univers
ally used for steel rails. The open-herth
system of Martin and Thomas, with the
regenerative gas furnace of Siemens, sup

Steel is made by combining a certain
proportion of carbon with iron.
The process determines Its value and
Variety. ,
The most Important of. these processei
arc cementation, Bessemer and open
hearth.
The first system consists in placing bars
of wrought Jron between layers' of char
coal In firebrick-lined retors. Yellow heat
is appllod tor a certain period until tha
required gradn of steel is obtained by the
additions of the necessary carbon.
This Is tho steel from whim edged' tools
ara made.
The Bessemer process is directly oppo
site In principle to the cementation pro
cess. The Bessemer burn tha carbon out
of the cast Iron.
This Is done in an egg shaped furnace
known aa a converter, lined with fire
brick, and capable of being tilted. At the
bottom, a number of tuyeres or nozzles
conduct the air from a powerful blowing
machine through the molten metal. This
burns out the silicon and carbon, and
after the alloy has been added and thor
oughly mixed the metal la poured Into
ladles, and thence to casting molds.
The ingots are reheated and rolled into
the forms desired for use.
In the openhearth system, steel Is made
from a mixture of pig iron and scrap Iron
or steel, which Is melted by direct con
tact with tho flame' In a regenerative gas
furnace
