A Coop old elder of neighboring town

TO the latter's congregation. lie consented,
and knowing the faults of the members of
his brothers. congregation, took occasion
to hint at 1T in the following language:
''Stealing Is Il besetting sin. The man
who steals Is capable of greater crimes. lie
who steals even pin will steal chicken.
or duck, or a goose. or turkey; and he
who steals from his nelghbor's hen roost
will steal from his stable, and horse thief
will commit murder. My friends if you
keep away from your neighbours chickens
you will not be suspected of other crimes. "
The colored minister was hero called
upon to make the closing prayer, which he
did as follows:
"Oh Lord we thank Thee for the ser.
mon we have heard to-day, and oh, Lord
we hope 1T will bear good froit among all
who have heard it, and oh Lord bless the

n correspondent writes to Mature, GA
gentleman recently returned from Austria
liza believes that the arid plan which occu-
pies the center Of that island continent
might be amply supplied with water and
converted into rich farm land by very
simple process He founds his belief upon
observed facts in three sciences of botany,
photography and geology. Gum trees and
the malice scrub flourish there. The gum
trees grow to great size and withstand
the drought Of many summers. They must
have water; whence do they obtain it,
Rivers which flow towards the centre from
the mountain ranges along the coast have
no apparent outlet TO the sea, but are lost
In the deserts. What becomes Of them 2
The underlying rock of the central plain
is AL almost horizontal bed of tertiary sand
stone. The conclusion is that the sandstone
Is saturated with water, and forms an i'm
mense reservoir from which existing trees
draw their supplies by deep tap roots, and
that by sinking wells In tho desert this
water could be easily rt ached. The author
of this theory, wishing only to confer a
public benefit, desires to bring it under til 9
notice OF scientific men. that 1t may be
either turned to account or shown to be er-
roneous. If there Is even remote posi-
bility of it's truth, 1T wonld seem worth

Sugar does not injure sound teeth, but,
on the contrary, improves them by assisting
the solution OF food which supplies lime
for their nourishment. Sugar sometimes
causes pain in decayed teeth. AS creosote
relieves an aching tooth by ceagulating a
film Of albumen over the nerve, so sugar
may cause a tooth to ache by dissoIving
the albumen by which the nerve may be
protected. Negroes, who eat large quan-
Titles of sugar, have beautiful teeth.
