Something New About the Sun


Although Solomon told us, nearly 5000
years ago, that There is no new thing
under the sun, it is a well established
fact that some startling discoveries have
recently been made in the sun.
Men have always had some vague idea
of It's heating power, but of its other
mighty agencies and influences they were
largely ignorant.
1t is a subject as fascinating as it is in
structive. and it is worthy of our earnest
attention. especially when so admirable
work as "1'he Celestial Symbol Inter-
preted," advertised in another column,
published by J. G. McCurdy & Co., Phil
adelphla, Cincinnati, Chicago and St..
Louis,) is within the reach of every one.
The learned author not only acQuaints
us with, and makes PLAIN the newest
scientific discoveries, but he also teaches,
at every step, some great moral truth.
Lest we be accused of undue enthusi-
asm in speaking of this book, we take
the liberty of quoting the opinion of the
able and critical N. Y. Obseruer::
"This work has been carefully examin-
ed by eminent, learned and orthodox
divines, who unite in testifying to its
great beauty, usefulness and truth. To
some, the analogies may appear strained,
yet they are not more so IMAM the lgura-
tive language of the Bible fairly war
rants, and the illustrations are fitting to
exalt our conceptions of the glory of God
in nature, and especially as it is seen in
the brightest of all His works. The
reader finds the evidences of Gods power
and goodness constantly reflected from
the sun in these pages, and is led from
admiration up to that alteration which be-
comes the creature contemplating his
Divine Maker"

THAT Minnesota should have two
cities standing third and fourth in the
union in the ability to construct numer-
GUS and costly buildings, is most signif-
cant, and reminds one again THAT West
ward no the course of Empire takes its
way" This increase is all the more re-
markable when we consider that the
limits of St. Paul and Minneapolis are
only four miles apart, and thus, in one
locality, not larger than the District of
Columbia, or that covered by New York
City and suburbs, nearly $780, 600, 900 have
been expended for building purposes
alone, more than in seven other promi-
ncnt cities, including New Orleans, Tole-
do and Detroit, and fifty per cent more
than Chicago itself. AS an evidence Of
the phenomenal growth of the northwest,
and prophesies of the high rank Mime
sofa is to take in the near future among the
states in the union, is the relative growth
of St. Paul and Minneapolis as compared
with the old centers of commerce and afflu-
ence For the first eight months of 1888,
St. Paul stands third in rank in the ex-
pense of its new buildings, and Mime
apolis fourth. We give the exact figures:
Chicago $12, $50, 900, Cincinnati $11,0OO,-
600. St: Paul $9,5SO,OOO, Minneapolis
So, 80, 600.

In the preamble to the resolutions
passed by the Wisconsin state convention
of saloon keepers held at Milwaukee,
October 18th, occur the following words
1--WE declare that drunkenness is due
more to the lack Of the proper training of
youth than the existence of saloons" We
would like, in the name of common sense,
to know what kind of an education could
be devised to enable our young men to
gulp down the fiery poisons and inhale
the foul moral atmosphere of the saloon

preamble must have been attempting to
perpetrate huge joke-or else were deep
