The GHosr OF MCDANIEL The
founder Of Islam is displeased with
the conduct of his followers, and has
appeared in broad daylight before the
eyes of the guardian of his tomb at
Medina. The hour of the vision was
at 2 P. NJ, just as Sheik Ahmed had
concluded his prayers and returned to
his meditations ON the Koran. What
the prophet said was in this wise:
ahmed Hossain, my followers are
shining. Seventy thousand of them
have died lately. Of that number on
y seven have died in the faith. In
consequence of the prevalence of such
sins as bribery, drunkenness, murder,
forgery, adultery, ETC., and the neg
lect of fasting during Ramazan, God
withheld rain. My instructions pre-
viously given have not been needed.
Kings have not ruled justly. They
have all become tyrannical. 1t has
been revealed to me that my followers
do not fear the anger Of God, though

A New USE FOR IRoN.-Onc of the
most incomprehensible discoveries
if it be true, which is questionable
that we have ever encountered is an
nounced in a recent French Journal
by M. Massic. He says that the
mere introduction of an iron bar, in
the box in which barley, rice, bran,
biscuit and like farinacious materials
are stored, is sufficient to prevent eli
Their the ravages of decay or the at.
tacks of insects. Full details of the
experimental investigation are given.
An iron bar three pounds in weight is
reputed to have protected forty gal
Ions of grain, and certain biscuits in
excellent condition, while others, un
der like circumstances, but without
the iron, were totally destroyed by
weevils.
