TOTAL FOLIPŠE OF THE SUN IN
1914
The total eclipse of the sun which is to take place on the 21st of August of this year, promises to be of special importance science, and mainly for the reason that the zole affected by this phenomenon will spread over the greater part of Europe and Asia, and consequently will afford our scientists an opportunity studying the eclipse in districts that are comparatively easy to reach, and where Recientific investigations can be purene
with every possible convenience Coming from the North Atlantic Ocean, the 2000 For totality will reach the Norwegian coset fat about 1 &'clock in the day it will then, pass to Sweden by way of the town of Hernadsand, and then on to Russia | irectly bffecting Kiev and Foodisis, from where it reaches Trebizond at about 4 to clock in the afternoon, and then finally terminates in Persia Nearly all vilised countries are preparing expeditions for the study of this eclipse, and a number of private expeditions are also being fitted outs: In view of the chimintic conditions prevailing, most of them have chosen Bouth Russia for the goal In Russia extensive scientific preparations have been

bon here to the annual automobilo show. The artificera of automobiles have all I happened that we sat at lunch on January 5th with one of them from Detroit and inquired about Henry Ford. The reply was: Henry Ford in a fine man, and d master of organization. He employs the cheapest and least intelligent labour that is employed in the automobile industry in Detroit. His machines, very able cheap machines, are made almost entirely by machinery Men feed bits of metal to machines, and the machines do the rest. If Henry keeps on for ton or fifteen years at the rate he is going now, he ought to be the richest man in the world le
So, our informant, whose views we give as we got them. Next morning it was in the papers that Henry Ford would, distribute this year ten million dollars out of this year's profits, to his employees in payments added semi- monthly to their pay-checks, and would make five dollars a day the minimum Wage for everyone of full age in his shops, and would allow no one to be dismissed from his employment whom he could
keep.

For example, all the times, anglea of position, te for all the Russian towns affected by the eclipse have already bean calculated and all these data will be placed at the disposal of the different accatifs expeditions coming to Russia. Among other German towns, Hamburg is fitting out an expedition, whilst eccond one, which is to be subaidised by
Professor Miethe, of the Charlottenburg Technical High School. This latter expedition, which is specially intended for photographic purposes will betake itself to the extreme North West part of the zone of totality, that is to say, as far as the land extends in that direction; the actual spot being the Norwegian Island of Aloten. Here they will be able to witness the eclipse at the first possible moment of contact, and consequently will be able to extend their observations over a considerable period. The expedition will, of course, be fitted out with all the latest scientific appliances. The well known firm of C. E. Goerz will eapply all the instruments needed, among which may be inentioned a specially large lense, having an opening of 40 cm, and weighing cbout 10 tons, which is specially con stracted for photographing the promin ences of the Corona. All the work done by the expedition will be recorded by megns of the cinematograph, so that our schoolboys will subsequently be able to witness the entire work accomplished by rientific expeditions of this kind from start to finish,

NURSE HALL, c/o Mrs. Bassett, Commercial Place, the Prusian State, is being planned by twenty-six thousand employees whom this Landport, Portsmouth, Eng., writes was suffering from nervous breakdown with Internal Neuralgia, when I began a course of Phosferine. After having ken it for three or four months, I felt better than I had done for two years previously, and consider it the best tonić I have ever tried. As a remedy for all nervous disorders I think there is nothing to equal Phosferine, especially as I was given up by more than one doctor previous to taking Phosferine, and can now say I am perfectly well and strong, and have taken nothing else."

It is much discussed whether this plan of distribution is wise. Mr. Ford and bij partners are not sure it is the best that can be done, but they wish to improve the division of earnings between capital and labour, and have thought it best to begin at home and without waiting for the movement toward the bettering of society to become universal. So they have dealt with their employees very much as a man whose goins have been better than common often does with his family, dividing up with them without accurate reference to their deserts. Five dollars a day seems a much larger minmum wage than ordinary business could pay.” But the Ford people can pay it easily. And why shouldn't they?—Infe

The siege of the Legations at Peking in June, 1900, led to three companies of the Fusiliers being sent to Taku, and they landed two days after the international fleet had captured the forts.
