Mans Dutyso Grow.


We grow only when we become moro and
more ourseIvea, our best selves, our truest
selves, the selves that God made US to be.
We do not grow when We try to be like this
man or that, to serve fer this mans wit or
that mans scope, to become like this saint
or that genius. The rose grows when IL
uufolds into rose, not when Il tries to be-
come any 9th or shrub or flower. The palm
springs erect TO heaven, and grows up q
palm; the vine creeps and hangs and swings
in the air, aad pours fragrance on the
breeze, and grows into q vine. Thus God
has made each Of us to BIZ something, to
have a real place, and do y resl work in
this world, and that our own Yorh, which no
one else can do. If we are faithful to the
inner light of our own conviction, aud do
the daily duties which God sends TO US, we
shall grow. With glad surp lee we shall
find ourselves becoming genuine and reaA
plants, Of use or beauty. in Inc garder. Of our
God.

"Why, the earth has been undergoing
Il regular bombardment. It's not ovel
yet. Look at that fellow, how he

star. Well, there's as much reason for
calling it a celestial shell. That me.
teOroid was moving at the rate OF
twenty or thirty miles second yet

"Where is the bomb-proof?"
"Why right under your nose all

When the meteoroids strike the air
that surrounds the earth, the heat pro-
duced in consequence of their tremen-
dous velocity runs up q million de-
grees or more a second, and in twink
ling they are changed to vapor. If
they could get through the atmosphere
they would make it lively for US. No
man could tell at what instant he
might be struck down by shot from
the sky, for meteoroids are plunging
into the atmosphere all the time at the
rate Of seven millions a day for the
whole earth. At certain times, as about
the 10th Of August and the 18th of
November, they come in showers, and
fairly lombard the earth. The soft
air that fans the cheek is to most of
these projectiles from space as impen-
etrable as wall of steel. Some of
them, however, are able to penetrate
to the earth, but they are compara-
lively very few in number. When a
meteoroid strikes the earth it is called
an aerolite. No good museum of min
eralogy is without one or more speci-
mems of these black-crusted, iron like
bodies. Humbolt relates that two
Swedish sailors were killed by an aerol-
ite on board their ship in 1914. The
thatched roofs Of houses have been set
on fire by aerolites, and sheep and
other animals have been struck dead
in the fields by them.
"Well, there are modern instances
enough. We are no safer than our
forefathers. Hardly year passes
without one or more masses of me-
teoric stone falling in the neighbor-
hood Of human habitations. A man
is in more danger of being killed by
lightning than by an acrolite, but it
would not be so if the air did not pro-
tect him.-Free Press.

A Selfish General.

One night in the spring of '62 Gen
Richardson, who then commanded a
brigade, took it into his head to inspect
the picket line. Coming upon a re-
serve picket of about thirty men under
command of captain of the Second
Michigan Infantry, the General saw
fit to interrogate as follows:
captain, in case of an alarm by the
advance picket, what would you do "
"Send off a reinforcement at once"
"And if the firing continued ?"
81 should move up with the remaind-
er of my force"
"And suppose whole company Of
the enemy should press forward?"
"We'd whip them"
"But if it was regiment p
"I'd form line of battle and check
them until / sent back and got orders
to charge and capture the whole lot"
"Well, suppose a brigade should
move down on you in battle line?'
"I'd order a charge, split the column
in two, and whip both halves in de-
tail"
At midnight the brave captain was
relieved from further duty OH picket.
He was very indignant and consider
ably puzzled, but after thinking the
matter over for awhile he said to n
brother officer:
"Say. I've struck it Old Rich

the whole Confederate army and throw
