LovE.-The love that sur ives the tomb
is the noblest attribute of the soul. Ifit has
woes, 1t has likewise its delights; and when
the overwhelming burst Of grief is lulled in
to the gentle tear Of recollection, then the
sudden anguish and convulsive agony over
the present ruins OF all We most loved ale
softened away into the pensive meditation OF
all that it was in the days Of its lovellness.
Who would root such sorrow from the
heartl Though it may sometimes throw a
passing cloud over the bright hour of gayety,
or spread deeper sadness over the hours OF
gloom, yet who would exche1ge 1t for the
song of pleasure or the burst Of reVelry 2
No; there is voice from the tomb sweeter
than song there is remembrance of the
dead to which we turn, even from the charm
Of the living.-W IrUing.

PEAS THREE THOUSAND YEARS OLD. -
In the course Of late exploration in the
ancient ruins Of Egypt, General Anderson, y
traveller, found enclosed in a sarcophagus
besides mummy, u few dry pens, which he
prescribed carefully, and, on his return IA
Great Britain planted them in rich soil ol
the Island Of Guernsey. The seed gerlnina.
ted, and soon two little plants adpearrd from
which, at maturity, sufficient peas were gath
cred to plant quite large tract OF ground
the following season. Some Of the plants
thus raised have attained hight of six feet
and have been laden with blossoms of exqui.
site otlor, and of delicate rose tint. The
peculiar feature of the growth is the stem,
which is small near the root but increases
greatly in size as it aseends, requiring a asuppor
10 sustain it upright The pods instead Of
being distributed around all portions of the
as in the ordinary plant, are grouped about
the upper extremity. The vegetable, it is said
belongs to the ordinary garden variety: but
from its presenting the very distinctive diff.
fcrences above noted, it seems worthy of close
botanical examination. The peas are of re
markable. fine flavor, cxcelling in delicacy
those of the choicest known varieties. FI.

One article that will 60 to the Centennial

Mr.. John AHobson, Of Clatsop county has
prepared bundle of shingles for the Gen.

width and half 90 inches. These shingles
are made from white spruce tree that stood
upon the camp ground where Lewis and
Clark, the explorers encamped in 1905, on
Clark creek in Clatsop county. From this
same tree, Mr. Hobson got out 100000 shin
giles for which he got SO per thousand, and

and for what it brought in market.

There are 222 theological, 2lS collegiate

Dr.. Evans, of Dayton, made an address,

should be paid to the habits of some of the
candidates for the ministry. The Baptists
and Methodists were more strict than the
Presbyterians-the Presbyterian students
smoked, chewed and attended places Of
amusement.
Rev. DR.. Speire thought this was an un-

brother should not make such . statement
to be spread over the whole church, when
