TODAY TOMORROW FRANK PARKER STOCKBRIDGE ELECTRICITY The late Charles P. Stolmetz, the most original thinker in the field of applied science that we have ever had in America, once said that the time would come when electric current would be so cheap that it would not pay to read meters. A flat rate of a trifle per month, the way water is paid for now, will be all that domestic current will cost, beyond doubt, some day. The latest invention for reducing the cost of generating electricity is the mercury boiler. The liquid metal, mercury, is used instead of water to drive the first of a series of turbines; the rest of the series are driven by steam generated by the cooling of the mercury. W. L. R. Emmett, a General Electric Company engineer, has been working away at the mercury boiler for twenty years in his Hartford laboratory. Already he has proved that it can be operated for a small fraction of the cost of steam. That is only one of the many economies which will eventually make electric current literally as cheap as water. VITAMINS Nobody knows yet precisely what vitamins are, but new facts about where they come from and what they do are being discovered almost every day. The latest discovery is that common colds are more likely to attack persons who do not get enough of Vitamin A in their diet. This is the vitamin which is found in whole milk, certain fruits and in the green vegetables. It, in turn, is directly traceable to the effects of sunlight on growing things. Dr. H. C. Rentschler, of New York, is displaying two old chickens on which he recently conducted a novel experiment on the left was given violet ray treatments, in conjunction with an ordinary diet, while the other was given a diet of cod special vitamin-containing food. Modern chicken farms must lutionized as a result of his experiments. Christian Science Lesson VITAMINS Nobody knows yet precisely what vitamins are, but new facts about where they come from and what they do are being discovered almost every day. The latest discovery is that common colds are more likely to attack persons who do not get enough of Vitamin A in their diet. This is the vitamin which is found in whole milk, certain fruits and in the green vegetables. It, in turn, is directly traceable to the effects of sunlight on growing things. Vitamin D, another of the essentials for a balanced diet, and without which perfect health is not attained, is the subject of a business deal involving a million dollars. Scientists at the University of Toronto discovered a way of irradiating wheat flour so that ordinary bread made from it would contain more of this vitamin. A baking concern in the United States has offered a million dollars for the right to use this process in making bread commercially. The knowledge even of the existence of vitamins is only ten years old. Much is yet to be learned about them, but what has been learned so far points to a revolution in our eating habits in the course of another generation or two, and to the control of diseases which still baffle the doctors. MANGANESE The most curious discovery which modern medical research has made is that unless a mother's food contains a trifling percentage of the metal manganese she has no interest in her babies. Fortunately there is manganese in infinitesimal amounts in almost every item of daily food, but in the rare instances where material affection is absent doctors now know what to do for it; they simply can make sure that the mother is getting a proper ration of manganese, and assimilating it. It has long been known that every element in Nature is present in the normal human body. Since the human body is the product of its environment, it is natural to suppose that it must partake in some degree of everything else on earth. The oxygen in the air is not put there because humans need it to breathe, as the old philosophers taught, but our bodies are organized to breathe oxygen because that is the active element of the air in which we have developed. And we are finding out that a large proportion of human illies are due to some bodily defect which prevents the full utilization of the elements which are taken into the body, or to the absence of some essential elements in the usual diet. EXPLORERS In the heart of the South American jungle rises Mount Roraima, in Venezuela. The high plateau from which this mountain springs has never been visited by white men. Three great scientific institutions, the American Museum of Natural History, the American any other man of learning merely because he speaks a different language, dresses differently or worships his God by a different ritual. When Dr. Einstein, one of the world's most learned men, visited America, how many people thought of him as a Jew? All united to welcome and honor him because of his learning; his religion and race did not matter. VERY LATEST by Mary Marshall Christian Science Lesson "Doctrine of Atonement subject of the Lesson-Sermons in all Christian Sclerosis branches of The Mother First Church of Christ Boston, Mass. The Golden Psalms; "He sent revered people: he hath commanded ant for ever: holy and name." Among the Scripture principles the Lesson-Sermons words to the Corinthians things are of God, who us to himself by Jesus Christ given to us the ministry; . . . Now then we needors for Christ, as though seech you by us: we Christ's stead, be ye record. A correlative passage from Christian Science textbook, Health with Key to the Mary Baker Eddy, states is the exemplification of with God, whereby man Truth, Life, and Love. He reth taught and demonized with the Father we owe him endless homeliness. Six Months in For Stealing It is considerably cheaper than it is to get according to the experience Brown and Tom Taylor, "gulity" to a theft character Charles Kuchel. They arrested on a charge of 400 pounds from Joseph Justice Kuchel sent them jail where they are to spend. FISHING AT LONG A. B. Hohenshell, who ing boats "Wolfman" and from the Pine avenue Beach, reports that fishering good catches of barrins as strings of calico bass. The barracuda started this year, he says, while heavy run of yellowtail. Fishermen are making good spot fin and corbiner, whitful in Long Beach waters. EXPLORERS In the heart of the South American jungle rises Mount Roralma, in Venezuela. The high plateau from which this mountain springs has never been visited by white men. Three great scientific institutions, the American Museum of Natural History, the American Geographical Society and the New York Botanical Gardens are sending a joint expedition into this region next Summer to find—what? Gold, which was the object of the early Spanish explorers of South America? Oil? Rubber? Diamonds? Not any of those is the purpose of this quest. Merely knowledge. Scientists are concerned only with discovering facts. It is up to engineers and businessmen to make use of the facts after they have been found. It is hardly likely that these explorers will find in this region, popularly known as the "Lost World," any living examples of prehistoric monsters, such as the late Conan Doyle imagined might still survive in the South American fastnesses. But they may find the true answers to many questions affecting the everyday life of everybody. It is even possible they will find a territory in which great numbers of civilized people could subsist with less effort than most of us have to put forth, once it were made accessible. Nobody knows. LEARNING Rabbi Naftall Fried, a Bohemian Jew, has been appointed librarian of the Pope's Hebrew library in the Vatican. He will live in the papal palace, but under the strictest rules of the orthodox Jewish religion; he will not work on Saturdays, his food will be prepared according to the Mosaic law, and he will have special religious services for a small Jewish congregation in a synagogue set up in the headquarters of the Roman Catholic church. Learning knows no religious or racial distinctions. Truth is truth, in what ever tongue it speaks. Men of real learning have no prejudices against On some of the new French dresses valenciennes lace is used to make flower-like ornaments. The sketch shows one of these dresses made of pale pastel pink crepe de chine with a small vestee of the lace showing at the V neckline. The small flowers which are posed at the right shoulder are also made of valenciennes lace and are really not at all difficult. To make a flower you will need about one-fourth yard of lace. This much should be cut off to start with. At one end pick out and draw a thread at the edge of the lace and draw the lace up so that it is slightly gathered. Attach the other end of the lace to the material where you want the center of the flower to be placed and turn the lace round in a spiral arrangement as shown in the detail sketch. Sew the lace in position in this way until you have completed the flower and then tuck the end of the lace under the last outer edge of the flower and sew down inconspicuously. Finish the center with ten or eleven French knots taken with yellow embroidery cotton. The green stem arrangement that is used with the flowers is made by winding thin milliner's wire with narrow green baby ribbon. Iowa produces more pop corn than any other State. FISHING AT LONG A. B.

The Golden Text is from Psalms: "He sent redemption unto his people; he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name." Among the Scripture citations comprising the Lesson-Sermon are Paul's words to the Corinthians: "And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconcilation; . . . Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God." A correlative passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, states: "Atonement is the exemplification of man's unity with God, whereby man reflects divine Truth, Life, and Love. Jesus of Nazareth taught and demonstrated man's oneness with the Father, and for this we owe him endless homage." Six Months in Jail For Stealing Oranges It is considerably cheaper to buy oranges than it is to get them by theft, according to the experience of Tom Brown and Tom Taylor, who answered "guilty" to a theft charge before Justice Charles Kuchel. They had been arrested on a charge of stealing about 400 pounds from Joseph Ritter and Justice Kuchel sent them to the county jail where they are to spend six months. FISHING AT LONG BEACH A. B.
