THE SECONDS or ETERNITY.

Prof Mitchell, in one OF his leeeOt lectures
describing the gradual tendency of the eaFtht
orbit to assume circular form, used the fol.
lowing magnificent illustration: p
g Its short diameter was gradually length,
euing aud would continue so 10 expand until
it sh, uld become perfectly circular, when .
would again contract to its original shape and
dimensions. and so the earth would vibrals
periodically, and these periods we're measured
br millions upon millions of years. Thus, tho
earth will continue to swing back and forth,
and to and fro in tue heavens, like grearpen-

During General Washington's administra-
ton, lie almost daily attended his room, adj
joining the Ssnate Chamber, and often arrived
before the Senate organized. On one occasion
Just before his arrival, Governor Morris and
some other Senator'S. were standing together
convetsng on various topics, and, amongst
them. the neutral, but majestic air of Gens
Warrington, when one Observed there was NO
man living eouIJ take a liberty with him. ~
The sprigbtly and bold Morris remarked, (" {
will BET Il dozen of wine can do that with inn
purity" The bet was accepted Soon after
Washington appeared, and commenced an,
easy and pleasant conversation with one of the
gentlemen, at a little distance from the others.
While thus engaged. Morris stepping up, in q
jocund manner tapped Washington oa the,
shoulder and with great familiarity said :555s

youth will be Of ;nconceivaGlc value to him in
all the remaining years of lis lie. When
tempted to deyi;!te from strictFproprietv OF de-
pertinent, he sh0pI ask himself, "Can afford
this Can endure hereafter to look back on
thi-.'
1t is Of amazing worth to young man to
have pure mind, for this is the foundation of
pure character The mind, i'll order to be
kept pure must be employed in topics of
thought which are themselves lovely, cbasteu-
cd aud eleyutiug. Thus the mind hath in its
own power the selection OF lis themes OF nedi-
tation. Ifyou,h only knew how durable and
d.s.aal i tho i1iury produced by the indulgence

ORIGIN or a GEORGIAN BEAUTY.

a Ioca! Georgian tradition most unhccoun-
tably refers The beauty Of the females in | art
to an English origin. s.AIIah, says legend
at Gori, wished 10 stock bis celestial harem
with the fl'rest daughters Of the Garth. He,
therefore, commissioned an Imam, who was a
great conno;sseur i'll female beauty, t, Gull for
him forty of the love!iest women be could fad.
The Imam journeyettin:o Fraukistau, into tue
country Of The Ingiz wen he carried off the
kings daughter. The English monarch pur-
sued him, but Allah, who protected his SER
want, threw dust in the eyes OF. the pursuer and
thus checked him. From England the Imam
proceeded to Germ any, where he selected many
lovely maidens; bur when lie reached Gori,
he fell in love with one OF the beauties he bad
chosen for The Celestial harera, and remained
there with the whole hevy. Allah ptsnished
the trcacilery o. tiIe Imam by death, but tho

The rccea, visit fthe Empress Dowager of Rnssi"
to Berlin has recalled many anecdotes connec ed
with her early life. a letter from Berlin gives the
following anecip,e of the young princess engage
u:ent to III Grand Duke N!chOlPs in 1915. The
Princess Charlotte WAS given to understand by her
parents that If the Grand Duke, during his stay at
Berlin, should take fancy TO her, they would haze
no objection to her returning the PcactaaL The
time originally fixed for the Grand Dukes stay had
come, and he seated at supper on his last eve
ming, next to the Princess Charlotte, when lie ab
ruptly told her that he must leave Berlin the next
day. He hoped to surprise her into some demon
stratioa m feeling on the occasion, hat her mai3enly
pride withheld her from making more than some
very say-acthpg remark in acknow Judgement. The
Grand Duke thereupou so on assumed auu;lcr plan
of operations; knowing that, howeverlitte the eyes
of the company might be actually fzed on him and
his fair neigbor they were, nevertheless, the object
OF general observation, he commenced telling her,
but in an apparently uuembarrassed manner, and
playing with ring of his the while 'h"t he had de-
voted himself during his short stay the g, 10 make
