r,.o,,, the fac, determ,ued bv W

From the fact. determined by W
Spring, that the color OF pur water II
great bulk is blue, NJ. Oh. Montigny
explains the predominance OF this color
In the scintillation of the stars Just be-
fore and during the wet weather. The
luminous rays, he argues, traversing
the air charged with large quantities OF
pure water are necessarily tinged with
the blue color of this medium Inc
excess of blue thus becomes an almost
certain means of predicting rain. This
theoretic conclusion corresponds with
the results of his observations continued
for several years past on the appearances
of the stellar rays IN connection with
the state of the weather During the
few months of fine weather In the pres
ent year blue has been much less con-
splcious than in the corresponding
months of the previous year since 1876,
when wet weather prevailed IL also
appears that green, which had Always
conceded with clear skies during the nne
wears before 1876, has recently again
become predominant. Hence he thinks
il probable that we have got over the
cycle OF bad seasons, and that dry
weather and more normal summers may
be anticipated at least, for some time 10
come. The above is from Nature, and
the same number contains an abstract
of a paper by Professor o. Mitchle
Smith, on green-colored suns, In which
he concludes that the phenomenon is
due to the presence OF unusual quanti-
ties of watery vapor in the atmosphere.

How TO KEEP CIDER SwEEr.-Pure
sweet cider that is arrested IN the pro-

aoetlc acid or even alcohol, and with
the carbonic acid gas worked sut, Is
one OF the most delightful beverages.
When the saccharine matters by
fermentation are being converted into
alcohol, if bent tube be inserted air
tight into the bung with the other endinto
a pail of water, to allow the carbonlc
acid gas evolved to pass of without
admitting any air into the barrel,
beverage will be obtained that Is ut

fill your cask nearly up to the wooden
faucet when the eask Is rolled so the

MASuRE AND THE ORCHARDS A cor
respoDdent saws: Unless We take to
drawing more manure on our orchards,
the trees should be much further apart
than they are. Two rods each way Is
not enough Forty feet is better and
forty-five better still. But with these
wide dist lnces the trees should be shell
tered from heavy winds or the fruit will
be blown off before it can be gathered.
On the other hand too close setting OF
trees may be remedied IN part by heavy
manuring. have III mind an old farmer
whose spple-trees. set altogether too
closely, occupied a half acre, in which
MS hogs rooted and lay through the
summer. The hogs were well fed, but
they rooted the ground SO that not a
spear of anything could grow. The
farmer never failed to have excellent
crops of fine apples, which paid him
better than other area OF five times Its
size on the farm. This farm mas been
under other management the last seven
years, and is less productive than for
merly. Yet / firmly believe that with
pigs and manure good crops OF apples
may be grown every year.

This One Thing.

All profitable, successful lines of bust.
ness are special lines so, if we would be
earnest servants of God, we must be
specialists. Having one thing to do,
understand it thoroughly, and do it as
unto the Lord, casting off the Improbable
works of darkness, and putting on the
armor of light. Two Scotchmen in the
north Of Scotland went fishing one day,
and, as men sometimes do there as well
as here, got drunk. When it was time to
60 home one of them cast off the head
line; and they got into the boat, took the
oars, and began to pull toward home, as
they supposed. After some time was
thus spent one said "Sandie, is it not
time we were home 2" The other agreed
with him, and they redoubled their efforts,
but without making any progress. At
last morning dawned, and the effects Of
the whisky passed off, and they found
that while casting off the headline they
had forgotten the stern-line, and were fast
to the shore, while they thought they
were homeward bound. So it often is
with Christians we cast off the headline
and wonder that we do not make faster
progress, when all the time the stern-line
is holding us fast to the shore. That
stern.line interferes with US wonderfully.
We are fast somewhere, and we can't 60
where the Spirit leads US. Some COM
promise with the world, some thread
silk one, perhaps-some church, some
thing holds US back, and till we cut loose
from everything we are shore-bound.-

The Rod.

God has 30 arranged and ordered all
things that his apparent change of pur.
pose shall follow every true prayer, and
his nature of love and tenderness be re.
vealed to every humble and waiting soul.
When our Affections have wrought out
in US the ends which his wisdom and
mercy have sought, and have brought us
in right frame before his truth and
majesty, we shall be able to discern modi-
fications in his treatment, which are as if
our God had changed his mind toward US,
but which are really but changes in meth.
DDS proceeding from the same mind and
purpose of mercy and truth. We need
all along our road in life the visitations
of Gods rod. God could not be faithful
and loving Father and withhold the rod.
1t comes in sickness, pecuniary losses,
family bereavement false accusations,
and in many other ways. None of these
come by chance. God is behind each,
and that, too, in love. Blessed is the man
who discerns this Blessed is the man
who can reckon on the rod as part of his
spiritual wealth Blessed is the man
who can say, with David, "Thy rod and
thy staff, they comfort me "!-where the
chastisement and support are seen to
come from the same hand and to prove
thesame divine love.-Dr. Howard Crosby.

A Slanderer Rebuked.

Not long since we heard a lady state
that her husband was 30 averse to hearing
anything derogatory of any one that she
had learned never to repeat to him the
unpleasant criticisms which she often
heard about their acquaintance, and the
habit of not repeating what she heard
had lessened her former interest in such
matters, and made her more charitable
and less critical on the conduct of others.
Some one has said that it takes two to
make slander--one to listen, the other
to report-and that if mankind would act
as Russian general once did, the race of
scandal-mongers would die of enforced
idleness. A Russian once tried to tell
Skobeleff of certain scandalous reports
about him. "One of your officers" he
began, ais spreading lies about you. May
I give you his name?" "No, no not
word" answered the general, sharply.
My officers fought like heroes. love
them. One word of mine was sufficient
for their going willingly to DEATH" When
the Russian, thus silenced, had left the
room, Skobeleff called his servant, aud
asked, Did you notice we'll that face !"
A" Yes, general q" If so, then remember
that for that man am never at home,

A Holy Life.

A holy life is made up of number OF
small things; little words, not eloquent
speeches or sermons little deeds, not
miracles or battles, nor one great heroic
act of mighty msrtyrdom, make up the
true Christian life. The little sunbeam,
not the lightning; the waters of Sloan
"that go softly in the meek mission of
refreshment, not the waters of the river,
great aud many" rushing down in noisy
torrents, are the true symbols of holy
life. The avoidance of little evils, little
sins, little Inconsistencies, little weak
nesses, little follies, indiscretions and i'm
prudences, little foibles, little indulgences
of the flssh-the avoidance of such little
things as these goes far to maks up, at
least, the negative beauty of holy life
