And this is not an extravaganza, for the
limestone of Nazareth is said to crum-
BILE more easily than the Jura limerick

in part for the fresh appearance OF
Nazareth, and also indicates that traces
of the old city are not to be expected.

I" My Heavenly Father"

There is in the mere fact of God 8
existence ground of human conf
dence and Joy. 1t is source of vast
comfort to us amid the whirl of change
that we witness around us-the birth
and decay of stellar systems, the be-
wildering transformations of human
history-it is a comfort to know that
there is One who does not change, but
is, in His wisdom and might and holt
ness, "the same yesterday and to-day
and forever 1t is source of trust
and hope to know that all the motions
of the planets and all the issues of
human life are governed, not by mex
orable laws, but by a just and pure and
gracious Being, whose councils we may
not be able to fathom, but who can not
but do all things well. And yet this is
not all, for it is the great privilege of
every man to think of this infinite be-
ing as standing in intimate and con-
slant relations to himself. He is not
God only, but our God, and not our
God only, but my God. In His tender
compassion He looks upon me, and to
Him may address my prayer. He
knows my frame. He hears my cry.
He understands my thought afar of.
In the completest solitude He is near
me, leading me in the paths in which
He would have me to 60. If calamity
befalls me, it is not because He has for
gotten me, but because He in His wis.,
dom has sent it. If temptation as
sails me, it is not because He has with
drawn from me, but because He is suf-
fering me to be tried. that 1 may learn
His power and His willingness to aid
me. He is not merely the friend of
mantle is my friend; not merely the
Father of all, but my Father. At ev-
cry hour. in every place, He is as near
to me as though could behold Him;
He whom nothing can resist is my
helper; He who sees the end from the
beginning is my guide. may have
nothing else in the world, but I have
Him for my God, and though I may
know nothing else l may at least know
Him, and it is such a knowledge Of
Him, not as God only, but as my God,
to which 1 am to lopk for moral
strength. z. b. Coe, d. d.

A Cantilever Bridge.

The new bridge soon to cross Niagara
River will be the first specimen OF the
modern cantilever system in the United
States. The american architect says:
1.-The principle of the cantilever bridges
may be illustrated by comparing them
with a structure formed of two over
hanging beams, projecting toward each
other, with third beam hung between
them. Each of the overhanging beams
is supported in the middle upon a pier,
the weight of the shore end serving to
counterbalance that of the end project
ing over the river, together with its
half of the additional weight of the in
termediate beams which hangs between
them. Of course all the beams. instead
of solid pieces, are trusses of steel and
iron, of such immense transverse
strength that two piers only are re-
quired in the entire span of eight hun
dred and ninety-fve feet. The first.
and only, example of this construction
yet actually completed. was the Inflated
Tay Bridge in Scotland, but its advan-
tage in point of economy, the bridge
being simply built out from each end
until the chasm is spanned, is so great
as to lead engineers to regard It with
much favor, and the Tay Bridge
itself is to be rebuilt in the sams
manner"

Once knew little girl,
Very plain;
You might try her hair to curl,
All in vain;
On her cheek no tint of rose
Paled and blushed, or sought repoSe:
She was plain.
But the thoughts that through her brain
Came and went
As recompense for pain,
Angels sent:
So full many beauteous thing,
In her Young soul blossoming,
Gave content.
Every thought was full of grace,
Pure and true:
And in time the homely face
LOyelier grew,
With a Heavenly radiance bright,
From the souls reflected light
Shining through.
So Itell you. little child,

You are sure
Of the loveiness of worth:
And this beauty not of earth
Will endure.

Lif$S's Duty.

If one were asked what the "duty'

out of sight; and he is most likely to be
regarded as the successful man who
pushes and scrambles and who gets fol
himself all that he can get. But once
in a while it is well to remind oursdve;
if we do not always remember it
that there are higher duties than the
so-called duty of getting on in the
world, and that there is sonnet ing bet

A Religious Maniac Tries to cruSify his Sou
and Barn has DAughiee Alive.
ERIE, Sept. 2-The eastern part o.
this county is intensely excited over
the actions of man crazed b. relig-
loE. Some months ago Sylvester
Knott, we'll to.do farmer, living IN
comparatively isplatei spot on the
shore or Lake K rie, attended meet
ing OF the Salvation Army at Frank
lin. lie became very much excited,
and finally insane. For two weeks
past he has wandered up and down the
shore, declaimine Oh religious themes,
pictnring the horrors OF the Judg.
ment day, ard calling upon sinners to
worsh p God or be eiernally lost.
Yesterday morning he planted a
large cross in the woots upon which

ing the hoy would be tormented i'm
hell fire forever unless lie died the
death of the Saviour With almost
superhumaH strength. Knott held the
lad firmly while driving large nail
through the little fellows hand, per.
fectly regardless of his piteous cries
for mercy. The dreadful work was
interrupted by some wood cutters who
happened to be passing. Leaving his
son hanging, the maniac fled. first
striking down one of the rescucrs with
a hammer. lie Ieaped into the lake,
and rs the search for linn proved
fruitless il was thought that he had
been drowned. This was not the
case. however. Before midnight tl,e
crazy mar ret7rned, smashed in the
door OF his house, and knocked Mrs.
Knott insensible at single blow.
Entering chamber in which his
only daughter-Aiinuie. 4 girl of II
lay asleep, he bound her hand and
foot and carried her to lonely place
in the forest, where hundreds of cords
OF wood were piled. An altar was
quickly, built & upon it the mailman
secured his child. Even as Abraham
did with Isaac, will l offer you as
a burnt offering unto God chan.ed
the mailman, setting the funeral pyre
on fire. The flames soon reached the
limbs of the girl, whose shrieks of ag-
ony and prayers for moro merciIu
death were music to the madmau's
ears. Dancing around the heap on
which lay the girl, he implored the
Almighty to accept the sacrifice as
atonement fol- the sinful deeds com
mitted by him in past years.
He added fresh fuel TO the altar.
But help arrived in time to prevent the
contamination of the fearful design
Two young men crossing the woods
on their way home from q party saw
a bright light, and heard the young
woman's screams. One felled the faith.
er while his companion scattered the
blazing wood and lifted the girl from
her fiery bed. The cords.that bound
her limbs were transferred TO those of
the unconscious maniac.
Miss Knott's legs are badly burned
and there are large blisters on her
shoulders, arms, and sides. So awful
was her experience that the doors OF
an asylum may open to admit the
daughter as well rs the father. She
raves night and day, and it is feared
her reason is permanently dethroned.
