STEEL BARS INSTEAD OF BELLS.
Steel bars produce q very pure,
distinct and melodious sound, and
possess many advantages over
church bells of moderate size. In
Germany they are in some meas
ure supplunting bells in church
steeples, and an English publica-
ton, the Choir, advocates their
general use, on the ground that
while in point of sonorousness
they are equal to the common bell,
in certain other respects they are
to be preferred to it. Thus, their
weight will be light in comparison
with the ponderous engines they
are to replace. They will not bur
den the steeple so much, and con-
sequently will give more scope for
ARCHITECTURAL design. Their wind
ing and hanging up will not be so
difficult, dangerous and expensive.
They are not liable to crack, as is
the case with bells, and are there
fore adapted for use in any eli
mate. They can be operated by, q
simple mechanical continuance.
The cost of -hese bars is so low
that three or four of them, form.
ing 4 peal, whose weight would
not exceed one hundred pounds
could be manufactured in England
for fifty. or sixty dollars, wherea.
three bells of the same power
would cost five times as much
They can be made of any dimen
sion, weight or power of sound
Every note or harmony can be pro
duced more easily, and the tunin:
is obtained more precisely, than il
cast bells. OF course these bar
are also adapted tor use whereve
bells are now employcd.-Scien

INFLUENCE OF INNoCENCE.-It is
a marvellous thing to see how a
pure and innocent heart purifies
all that it approaches. The most
ferocious natures are tanned by in
nocence. And so with human be,
ings. There is delicacy so pure
that vicious men in it's presence
become almost pure; all of purity
which is in them is brought out;
like attaches to like. The pure
heart becomes the center of at
fractions around which similar
atoms gather, and from which dis
similar ones are repealed. A cor
rupt heart elicits in an hour all
that is bad in us; a spiritual one
brings out and draws to itself all
that is best and purest. Such was
Christ. He stood in the world
the light of the world, to which
all sparks Of light gradually gath
cred. He stood in the presence OF
impurity, and men became pure.
Note this in the history of FAC.
chcus. In answer to the invita-.
ton of the Son of Man, he says
Behold, Lord, the half of my
goods l give to the poor, and if j
have wronsed any man I restore
him fourfold." So all the Scribes,
''Well, Master, thou hast well said
There is one God, and there Il
none other than he. '.If I bt
lifted up from the earth, 1 will
draw all men unto me-"

WHICH is MOsT PRoFITABLE?-
The Farmers Central Association
of Centralia, as all knew, connect
ed a purchasing agency with the
association, allowing the purchas-
ing agent five per cent. commits
sion for sales on manufacturers,
prices for agricultural implements.
In accordance with a resolution of
the association, a committee has,
with our assistance, been gather
ing facts and statements in regard
to the direct and indirect opera
tions of the Centralia Purchasing
Agency, with the following profit
able results. 1t is our opinion
that, in a financial point of view,
farmers clubs can make better
showings than any other political
or utilitarian organization known
to the people, in and for their ma
terial prosperity. If there is any
Liberal, Republican or Democratic
club that can show as healthy and
satisfactory a balance sheet for
one seasons campaign, we would
like to see it.
The territory comprised in the
investigation covers a distance of
fifteen miles north, east, west and
south of Centralia, thirty miles
square including twelve business
points. The sales from all these
have been almost entirely regulat-
ed by the contract of the Centralia
agency. The sale value of imple-
ments sold within this area during
the present season, as shown by
the Investigations of the commit
tee, amounts to $93 $780,, and this,
we believe is less, by $40, 900, than
the actual amounts sold, as it has
been difficult to get full and final
figures. The average per cent. re,
celved by agents in former seasons
for the sale of Industrial nipple
ments fully equaled 80 per cent
The agents profit on 500, $50, at
80 per cent, in a previous year,
amounted to $2S,05S. The agents
profits on this amount of sales
for the season of 486S, at the con,
tract price of the Centralia pur.
chasing agency, FIVE per cent,
amounts to $1,67e.5O. Thus the
farmers within thirty miles square,
have saved through. this purehas-
ing agency $23, 3S2.5O, being the
difference between .$2S,O59 and
81, GIG. so; and it may .be proper
to state that none of the above
figures cover the sales of wagons
manufactured outside the territory
embraced in this statement. OuI
farmer friends and business men
may scratch their heads little as
they reflect upon the fact that the
little gatherings of farmers once 8
month during the past season a
the city Hall in Centralia has saw
ed to the tillers of the soil the
snug little sum of $23, 382.50
Now, what has it cost to run the
association from its organization
up to date? The total expenses
of every description, amount te
$l01.30. The statements contain
ed in this article we regard as {
full, complete, and decisive reply

are so fond of using the can

A HEAVY SACKFUL OF EARTH
A rich man had by an upright
eous lawsuit obtained from a poor
widow a small field by the produce
of which she was just able to
maintain herself. The inconsol-
able woman came to the merciless
man with the humble request that
he would allow her to take away a
sackfal of earth from her former
possession. The rich man con-
sented, with a derisive smile; so
the widow went with q large sack,
and dug and shoveled till the sack
was quite full from the bottom to
the top. When she had finished
she asked her plunderer, who had
been looking on, to help her to
lift the sack upon her shoulders.
To this he also graciously con-
sented, and exerted all his strength
in order to lift the sack; but it was
of no use-the sack was too heavy.
AS he was about to go away to
fectch a strong laborer to lift 1.-THE
widow Calcium back and said with
reproachful solemnity, "Friend,
stay here; as I am obliged to give
up the whole field to you, there
fore will leave you as well the
sackful Of earth. But / entreat
you to answer me the following
question: AS this sack is already
too heavy for you, win not the
whole field weigh still more heavi-
~ on you before Gods judgment
seat, and crush you to the ground"
The mans conscience was touched
by this reproof, and he gave the
field up again to the widow.

DOMESTIC PRODUCTS.

4 To appeal to the women OF the
country to come to the relief in
the present financial troubles may
at first seem absurd, but there is
q reason for it that more spacious
calls have not. 1t is not asked of
them to be more economical; to
save money, and contribute it to
the poor; or to change their ex-
lpenditure q whit; but to tnrn their
monetary brooklets into a differ
emit chanpel-in short, to buy do
nestle instead of imported goods.
No great perspicacity is needed to
comprehend that, while the Rep1b
lie is paying, yearly, millions and
millions more of gold for imports
than it gets for. exports, it can
hardly return to specie payment;
and just so long as that is deferred
we must have panics and all sorts
of monetary arrangements.
I SO, if the buying of Imported
goods be the source of so much
trouble, would it not be well to re-
from buying them, and keep the
gold we need, instead of fseDding
it abroad? There is no need of
leagues and clubs and much palayjj
er to make this a practical move1
meAt All that the Wisest and
most earnest woman can do Is
simply to ask for q domestic brand
when she is making a purchase.
It is to women that the appeal us
made, because it is for their bene-
fit that the majority of costly i'm
ports are brought. It is they who
demand and use them; and there
fore it is for them to act against
the tyranny of mode.
The sacrifice will not be SO great
or SO difficult as might seem. We
manufacture elegant silks, only
less beautiful than their French
and Belgian compeers. We make |
as fine ribbons and flowers as are
made anywhere. Our alpacas and
other stuff goods are not cxcelled
while all .Sour cotton fabrics are
world-renowned. We manufac-
ture beautiful cloakiRgs, often
sold under the head of "imported'
"a word having a mysterious but
very powerful attraction for most
women. The fiannels and feltlngs
of. certain American houses are
proverbial for their finennss. We
make fringes, fancy trimmings,
and certain kinds of lace. Shawls,
shoes, woven undertaking, stock
ings-all kinds and qualities of
goods are in the catalogue Of our
products.
We do not suppose the Treasu-
ry Department win Immediately
resume specie payment because of
our little suggestion; but we do be-
lieve that if it were widely acted
upon, it would nreatly lessen the
troubles of the nation.

TIE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION.

The Committee ON Plans and
Architecture of the Continual
Commission report that they have
examined the ten plans selected
for the second and final competi.
ton, and award prizes of the fol
lowing amounts to four competi-
tors, all of whom are residents OF
Philadelphia, namely, Collins 4
Autenreith, 81, 900; Samuel Sloan,
So, 700; M'Arthur& Wilson, 81, 600;
II. A. IL j. p. Sims, 81, 900. They
have, however, selected as the plan
of the Centennial Exhibition that
submitted by Vaux d Radford,
architects, of this city, although,
owing to an informality it receiv-
ed no prize in the second compe-
tition. This is known as the '' pa
viliOn plan," and contemplates a
building which will be in the main
a succession of immense cast-iron
arches, the whole forming a rec
tangular elevation, which can be
enlarged in any direction to an al
most indefinite extent, as the ext
gencies of the Exhibition may
demand. -
Regarding the details of the
design, the Committee state that
the plan OF the building is rectan-
gular, being 2,O40 feet long-by $50
feet wide, with greater width at
the center and ends up to 1921
The governing dimension on the
plan is square, or pavilion,
measuring 1876 feet ON each side.
The main parallelogram forming
the building is, therefore, fifteen
of these pavilions long, and five
pavilions wide, an area equal to
3, 1S4 acres. The increased width
is obtained by adding on the long
sides projections of three pavil-
ions at the center, and one at each
end. The principal part of the
design is made up up Ofvaulted or
domed pavilions, each lao feet in
clustered together, aud
by arches of 100 feet
with interior courts of
thirty six feet diameter. The di
are open to modification
without changing the charactcris-
tic features of the design. The
principal part of the building thus
covered by these pavilions be-
comes one spacious hall 40S feet
wide and 2,040 feet long, with q
transept 40S feet wide and 952 feet |
long. The vistas, of course, ex-
tend to 952 and 2,O4O feet in |
length. The building is capable |
of both central and intermediate |
points of emphasis, direct lines of
transit throughout its entire |
length and breadth, diagonal lines
Of communication, if deemed nee
and especially an entire
relief from any appearance of con-
traction, because the visitor will |
be always in an apartment or pa
Vilion 140 feet wide that opens i'm
into other apartments
of the same width.
Features suggested by the plan
Of Sims & Brother, of Philadelphia,
are to be introduced in construct
ing distinct parts of the building,
The material will be iron and brick.
It is expected that the Executive
Committee at its meeting on
Wednesday will approve the &C
,epted design, and that the build
ing of the structure will soon after
commence. The plans for the
permanent building to be known
IS the Memorial Hall are to be
submitted to the State Centennial
supervisors, who have been APP
pointed uuder an act of the Gen
'ral Assembly to supervise the
of that particular struc-
,urc, for which the State has APP
$1,OO0,OO0.
