lies in figure and animal painting, though the
pose and action of men and animals was
often striking. Oftener the figures were

1t is worthy of note that not a few of
the eminent scientists in both the United
States and England are also eminent in the
Church. St. George Mivart is distin-
guished alike as an expounder of evolution
and of the principles Of the faith in which
he believes. The late Professor Guyot, of
Princeton, was a devoted student of and
believer in the Scriptures Professor Asa
Gray, Of Cambridge, the first botanist in
America, and disciple of Darwin, is
member of an orthodox church. So also
is Professor Gray's assistant, DIR. Serene
Watson. The Danas, of New Haven, are
quite as we'll known in local religious cir
Gle as in the world of science. So, also,
on the other side, several of those who are
eminent as clergymen or theological pro-
fessors have also gained distinction in
scientific research. Professor G. Frederick
Wright, of Oberlin, was recognized by Mr..
Darwin himself as one of the ablest ex-
Founders of the Darwinian theories. The
late Charles Kingsley was we'll acquainted
with one or two branches of physical
science. Ex-President Woolsey, of Yale
College, is well Known as an expert botan-
ist These and similar facts illustrate the
cordial relations which not only ought to,
but to large degree do, prevail between
these two great spheres Of human knowl-
edge.

EyEcIrrIyE Session

In the executive session of the senate this
evening a resolution was offered from the COM
mittee on foreign relations advising the presi-
dent to enter into negotiations for an extension
of the Hawaiian reciprocity treaty for seven
years. This was in compliance with request
of the president for the advice of the senate in
regard to the matter. The resolution met with
some opposition, and it promised to give rise to
an extended debate. Further consideration of
the subject was postponed until next December
By the terms of the existing treaty, it was pro-
vided it should remain in force seven years from
date at which it came into operation, viz: Sept.
8, 1876, and further, until the expiration OF
twelve months after either contracting parties
shall have given notice to the other of its wish to
terminate the same. Each of the contracting
parties being at liberty to give such notice to the
other at the end of SAID term of seven years, or
at any time thereafter. 1t is understood that
the proposition to extend the treaty another
seven years contemplates also probable pro-
curement Of certain additional advantages of a
recioOcal nature.

readily inferred from the following accurate
estimate of the cost of manufacturing each

that is selling from the fountain-the fol-
lowing are the actual costs:
One glass of plain soda water costs one
tenth of a cent.
One glass of soda water with syrup costs
one cent and a half.
One glass of mineral water costs one cent.
One glass of root beer costs one cent
One glass of ginger ale costs one cent and
a quarter.
One glass offine draught champagne costs
four cents.
In the 'bottling Department. the follow
ing scale of costs prevails
Plain soda water, best quality, put up in
bottles closed by corks and fastners, costs
eight cents per dozen.
Ditto, with gravitating shoppers, costs three
cents per dozen.
Soda water with syrup, in bottles closed by
corks and fastners, costs fifteen cents per
dozen.
Ditto with graVitating shoppers, costs ten,
cents per dozen.
Ginger are in bottles, with corks and wires
cost seventeen cents per dozen.
Ditto, with gravitating shoppers, costs
twelve cents per dozen.
Mineral waters in siphons costs three
cents per siphon.
Sparkling champagne (domestic), best

From simple comparison of the forego-
ing scale of of costs, and the well-known re-
tail charges for the same articles, the infer
enee drawn by the manufacturer that it is a
business that pays appears to be correct
one.
Then list is given of the materials in
Guided in the outfit for this business. We
find in this catalogue the following items:
Sulphuric acid and marble dust to make
the carbonic acid gas, which gives the spark

Chemical extracts for the favors.
Coloring to initiate raspberry, strawberry

Gum foam to give it an artificial form

There is one item called an ''acid dispen-
ser'' which appears to be essential in hand

We are not informed if any such acids and
corrosive substances are eliminated during
the manufacture or during their passage into
the human stomach. Such facts remain
among the mysteries of "a business which
