journalist, William A. Bartlett, who diel
few days later. The article was read
at his funeral by Bishop Clark as ,sl-
dence Of the religious feeling Of the
deceased =:
"There is Just at present particular

the province and efficacy Of prayer.
1t is very easy for unbelieyers to

"Then they laugh at the idea that i
universe which is manifestly governed
by general laws should be Influenced by
special prayers.
:" In reply to all this it may be stated
that all spiritual and religious ajlslrs are
enveloped in mystery. We sec 9ni as
through glass darkly.
"But what seems to us u very power

indeed, unanswerable, is the universal
instinct to fall down before a higher

and the horn was imbedded IN sohd
wood which had united eight or nine
inches above the horn, SO that If another
horn had been hung III the same place Il
would have hung eight or nine inches
above the first.
A few words III regard to the flow Of
sap IN the maple tree:
When a maple tree Is cut into to get
the sap, III order to make sugar, the sap
will flow up and down until the warli

be checked in the upper part Of the tree

frozen again. The leaves of The tree
don't put out until after the sap has done

How TO Lift Thousand Pounds.

Dumb-bells weighing not over five
pounds each are recommended, which
should be used regularly every morning
an evening for half an hour for n year
BY this time it will be found that the
muscles of the arms, legs and body will
have increased very much and become
exceedingly firm and hard. When this
condition has been acquired, then, and
not till then, can man think of lifting
heavy weights for if he cannot get his
muscles and nerves in this healthy con
dition he can never become a litter, even
with years of practice, as 1t takes
strength as well as slight to lift heavy
weight. Some very good authorities
recommended lifting at the commence
ment, adding that 'you must not lift
too much" But how can inexperienced
hands tell what is too much before they
find themselves permanently injured?
After the years exercise Will. dumb.
bells or otherwise, as previously sug-
gested, then man who IS not ruptured
or otherwise injured can commence a
systematic course of lifting, starting with
not over one hundred pounds, which he
can lift AS many times day as he IL
disposed to do for one month. He can
then add another fifty pounds to the
weight to be lifted during the second
months exercise, and so on, adding an
add ional tifty-pounds weight each
month for twenty months, then he viii
be able to lift the great 1000 pounds
without any danger Of injuring himself
This Is general rule, and result any
man with sound body can reach if he
only follows the prescribed course. and
never tries to overd the thing. II the
weight will not come mp without too
much strain, stop, for it is too heavy
for Won at that point of your training
To lift correctly and without danger a
person must stand erect, the heels on the
same line, the tows turned ont, the shonl-
derS throw, back and the body resting
squarely on the hips-the arms hanging
down by the sides. The legs should
then be bent merely enough to enable
the hands to grasp the handles or rings
OF what Won are to lift then LIT by
merely Strengthening the legs. aud not
by the AIMS or body If You have to
strain, and tie weight does not come mr.
freely, then you are attempting too much.
and should try q lighter load When
yon have become strong enough to lift
one thousand pounds you are IN reality
strong man, and shonld be perfectly
satisfied to let well enough alone. fsr
Of all who attempt to exceed that point
there Is not one man in one hundred who
at some time or other. does not injure
himself for life. Some few do not, but
they are rare exceptions. - Erchnnge

the resources Of inventive genius mex

They render labor more productive but
labor is as much in demand as before.
Indeed, it is the rule that where farm
tools are clumsy and poor and labor is I'M
productive, there it is but poorly paid
and but little in demand. As implements
improve, labor becomes more productive,
and being worth more, higher wages are
paid This rational solution of the labor
and wages problem is wholly misunder-

are resisted by the laboring classes.
