WHAT HOPE DID.-It stole on its pin
ions of snow to the bed of disease; and
the sufferers frown became smile
emblem Of peace and endurance. 1t
went to the house of mourning-and
from the lips Of sorrow there came sweet
and cheerful songs. 1t laid its head on
the arm of the poor, which was stretch
ed forth at the command of unholy inn
pulses, and saved him from disgrace
and ruin. 1t dwelt like living thing
in the bosom of the mother, whose son
tarried long after the promised time of
his coming, and saved her desolation
and the 50 care that killeth." 1t lowered
about the head Of the youth who had
become the Ishmael Of society, and
led him onward to works which even
his enemies praised. 1t snatched a
maiden from the jaws of death; and
went with an old man to heaven. No
hope my good brother? Have it.
Beckon it on your side. Wrestle with
it that it may not depart; it may repay
your pains. Life is hard enough at best,
but hope shall lead you over it's noun
tains, and sustain thee amid its pillows.
Part with all beside, but keep thy hope.

A Novel Trial.

A Spanish lady was brought into
court in London the other day, for re-
fusing to pay for a blue silk night gown
she had ordered. She declared the
garment a misft, and offered to prove
the fact by trying it on before jury of
matrons. There was no jury of
matrons, and the judge finally decided
that she must pay the bill with costs.
This infamed her Andalusian blood,
and her proud answer to the despot
was to hurl the garment in question
at the solicitors head, and afterwards
to tear it into ribbons before the judges
face.

pulling phenomenon: At Vernon,
about six years ago, lightning struck
plot of ground planted with cherry trees
and gooseberry bushes, making deep
hole in the earth not more than ten
centimetres in diameter. Afterward
the trees died away in circular area,
which grows wider and wider, and is
now not less than seven metres in
diameter. A twofold question arises.
first, why the morbific action is perma-
nent, and, second, why the stertility

prove that there is more truth in the
Symmes theory than the Newtonian :?
Yet who knows anything about the
Symmes theory, that has been lying
dormant as it were since the death Of
it's author in 1929? He petitioned Con-
gress in 1922 and 1923 to fit out an ex-

the table; but now they will 1T out

Symmes proposed fifty years ago.
Howgate is to land his men as
