1t can probably be truthfully said that
more people were in attendance at all the

added The cordial greeting of his church.

certainly a very enjoyable occasion.

some 1870 and many local preachers are
in attendance whose names presume are

were generally filled on Sunday morning
by members OF the convention, lhough it

A BAT CAN SEE WITH ITS WINGS
There is single property with which the
bat is endowed too remarkable and curious
TO be passed altogether upnoticed. The
wings OF these creatures consist of deli
cate, nearly naked membrane of great size
considering the size of the body, but,
besides this, the nose is, in some varieties,
furnished with membraneous foliation,
and others The external membraneous
ears are greatly developed. These mem
braueous tissues have their sensbilty so
high that something like a new sense is
thereby developed, as If in aid of The
sense of sight. The modified impressions
which the air, 9uiescence or in motion,
however slight, communicates, the ire
mendous RS of It's current, its tempera'
ture, the ndescribable conditions of such
portions of the air as are in contact With
different bodies, all are apparently appre
ciated by the bat. If The eyes of bat be
covered up, or If he be cruelty deprived OF
sight, it will pursue lis course about n
room with thousand obstacles in its way
avoiding them all neither dashing agains,
a wall nor touching a thing, but threading
ils way with the utmost precision and
quickness. and passing adroitly through
aperiures or inter spaces OF threads
placed purposely across the apartment
This endowment, which almost exceeds
belief, has been abundantly demonstrated.

WIVES TAKE WARNING Many wo.

pntluence over him by trying to rule him,
It some lnciutious mOment that she was

worth anything never allows himself to be

1t is only a contemplate little sneak

opinion of his own.
And when a fine man gives woman

Ii he is really manly, he has no desire to

great that nothing Can weaken them, the
new M tde wife forbds her husband his

ALASKAN MUMMIES -Four Alaskan
mummies were brought down from Alas,
ka, says the SIN Francisco Bulletin, by
the schooner KodIah on her last uiD
Three go 10 Berlin and one 10 the Smith
sopian Institute. The bodies are wonder
fully preserved, even the skins in which
they are wrapped being intact. One
mummy, evidently that of woman, is
now in possession of the Alaska fur com
pany, and is in state OF almost perfect
preservation. The mummies were secur.
ed by A. jacobson, who has been over
two years in The country collecting for
tho Royal Museum of B,rin. He is of
the opinion that the mummies are at
least 200 years old. all evidence obtainable
pointing to that fact. The Esquimaux
formerly preserved the bodies of their
shammans, or medicine men, and those OF
their chiefs and their wives and children

Score one good thing for 1ngersoll,
even if unintenlional on his part. He
and General Lew Wallace were once con-
vers!ng concerning The divinity of Christ.
Both were disbelievers in the doctrine, but
General Wallace was hardly prepared to
endorse the extreme views of his COM
panion. In closing the conversation In
gersol advised his friend to make thor
ough study of the subject. convinced that
this would bring him to adopt his own
radical positions. This the General did ;
but instead of securing the result intend
ed by Ingersoll. lurther study not only
caused Mr.. Wallace to become convinced
that Jesus Christ was the divine Son OF

personal Savonr and Redeemer. General
Wallace is now U. s. minister at Con-

MosT IMPORTANT EDUCATION FOR
GIRLs.-When there are q number of
girls at home it is an excellent plan to
allow each one in turn 10 assume the
responsibility Of housekeeping for GER
tain time. 1t does not hurt girls to be
made to lake a measure of responsibility
concerning household tasks; far otherwise
1T does them immense good. Let
them IN succession have, a week at time,
charge of the chamber work, the mending,
the cooking. the buying even, for the
family-all. OF course under proper super.
vision--and their faculties OF reason,
perception, judgment, discrimination and
continuity, will be more developed In one
month OF such training than in six months

where the bullfrog and The water snake

LET THE Boys TINKER.-A great return
from a small investment is realized by
purchasing small soldering outfit for
boy. He becomes at once useful member
of the family; old basins and pans become
as new after the transformation touch of
his soldering iron, and there are great
possibilities in tin cans and small pieces
of tin; sugar silters and tunnels are
among them. am convinced that lack
of interesting occupation is the prolific
source of most bad habits that an idle boy
acquire; that parents feel this, and many
are likely to fall into the error of provid-
ing too many finished playthings for them.
1t seems that the aim should be to give
them tools with which they may exercise
the imagination, and with which they
may construct articles that do not yet
exist,
