A Pretty Metaphor.

The japanese have proved them
selves such apt learners that the are
already beginning to improve on the
methods of their instructors. To peo-
pie of their artistic temperament the
old European plan OF christening a
ship by breaking a bottle of wine
against her sides is distasteful: and so,
when lately name was given to H. 1.
Ms ship Katsuragi. an Imperial
Princess gently broke fragile cage
against the steel plates and by so doing
liberated pair of doves. Atfirst sight
the metaphor seems rather mixed;
but possibly an explanation may be
found for it in the fact that in the pop
ular Chino-Japanese mythology doves
are occasionally metamorphosed into
hawks; and the emblem may there
fore have been intended to signify that,
though in piping times of peace the
katsuragi would be as harmless as a
dove, she yet contained within herself
the potentially of hawk.-St. James

Additional Evidence.

In each new discovery of students
and travellers we acquire fresh evil
dence of Christianity. We live in an
age of skepticism. and yet in every old
coin or Moabite stone or Phrygian in
scription or recovered writing or
broken slab or crumbling tomb in Asia
Minor, in Palestine, even on the far-otf
banks of the Tigris or the Euphrates,
the Great Head of the church is ever
supplying us with fresh historic con-
firmatiOns of the facts which we have
historically received.
If the New Testament were taken
from us tomorrow. it is hardly too
much to say that from medals and
catacombs and the ruins of long-for-
gotten cities, and relics and writings of
days within two generations of the
death of Christ, we could reconstruct
and demonstrate every essential fact of

A STRANGE FLOWER.
A Story That Reads Like One Of the Ia
Sends of Mythology.

A Story That Reads Like One Of the L.
Sends of Mythology.
In the western part of jefferson
County, Fla, there grows and blossoms
into curious and magnificent beauty
rose that seems to be indigenous to a
small area of country. but which will
not flourish in other ATTITUDES. The
bush is strong and vigorous one. and
the leaves are very light but glossy
green. The petals of the flower curve
slightly inward and are the color of a
bright arterial blood. The odor is
pungent, but slightly sickening. The
popularity of this flower is that the
dew that drops therefrom is of faint
pinkish cast, a marvel seen in no other
flower, the battling wonder of those
who have witnessed it. 1t is called the
Grant Rose. and has sad and melan-
choly history. It's origin is one of
those mysteries with which nature at
times delights to astonish her devotees.
In 1884 John Grant and Nellie Lowry
were married. After happy year OF
married life they and their baby were
murdered by Osceola's Seminoles. A
few years later a passing hunter, one
of the original party that had found the
bodies, happened on the same locality,
and in the little hollow where the blood
had gathered he saw vigorous bush,
bearing such roses as have described.
He cut some slips from it and took
them to the settlement, where he re-
lated his discovery. Such a romantic
and singular story excited the curiosity
of many in the adjacent counties, and
repeated efforts were made to secure
the growth of the slips in other places,
but they have all failed of success.
Within an area of five miles, where the
deleful tragedy occurred, it is said that
the rose can still be found. with its
strong and sturdy stalk. its palc-green
leaves, its incurved crimson petals, and
its bloody dew.-Lire Oak (F!a.) Cor.

The clue to the mystery. If there be
one, is not altogether intellectual. it Il
spiritual. OF course, we recognize the
fact that a Christian is in any case,
whether Chinese, Karen, Telugu. OF
American, a renewed person; "bor2
AGAIN from above" But we would be
willing to submit this fact OF a peculiar,
uneoualled educational power in the
Bible, at spiritual point of view, to
any one, if candid and fair in dealing
with such question, who did not be-
lieye in the Christian doctrine of re-
generation. 1t is the idea of God given
to the Bible, so wonderful, so appealing
in human desire, so satisfying to human
faith. 1t is that spirit in Bible teach
ing, whether clothed in biography, in
history, in doctrine, in prophecy, or in
psalm. 1t is the teaching itself. COM
mended to all that. is best in human
nature, and graphing conviction and
sensibility alike in such way as to liz:
the student up to its own plane. 1t Is.
above all, the character and teaching
of Jesus Christ, speaking as never man
spake. and breathing into humanity a
life like His own. Whether person
be Christian or not, he can not be an
habitual reader of the Bible without
becoming educated" in a way impossi-
BILE to schools and libraries the world
over.
1t may be that Christians should think
more of the Bible at this point of view
than they are wont to do. Reasons
may thus appear why they should be
more anxious to be familiar with its
pages themselves; more anxious that
their children should know it well;
more ready to help in giving such a
treasure to the nations that have it not.

FASHIONS IN HAIR.
Authoritative Statement as to How FASH
ionables Will Do Up the Hair.

A great change has quietly taken
place in hair-dressing fashions. Fash
ionable ladies, tired of the high styles.
are gradually wearing the Catogan
braid or wavy curls low on the neck,
worn by the London and Partisan ladies
last winter. The Puritan style of hair
cutting, close all over the head and
shaped in saucer bang on the forehead.
which was quite a favorite with sporting
ladies, has been eagerly adopted by our
pretty shop-girls, perhaps because it
saves time. This style is not worn in
Europe, and the sooner it is discounten-
anced here the better for the looks of
our fair countrywOmen. Front coiflures
are worn in POmpadour style.
The back hair for daily wear is
dressed in Catogan braid about two
inches from nape of the neck, Topped
up. and figure eight made of wavy
tresses on the crown close to the front
curls. Loop shell pins are essential to
dress the hair in loops.
For evening wear the hair is dressed
in fluffy cUrls in front. Pompadour
style, and the back hair in wavy loops,
not too large, but long, ending in two
or three graceful wavy curls falling on
the neck. Fancy pins in gold and sill
Yer, studded with brilliants or rhine
stones, are much in vogue for orna-
ments. Feather puffs for matrons and
flowers for young ladies. Front colt
fures connected with a Catogan braid
or wavy curls are being introduced to
''forlOrn damsels with shorn locks"
who are anxious to recover their fash
ionable appearance. Gray hair is more
fashionable than ever Ladies who
have sprinkling of gray have front
coiffures and chignons made quite gray
and have them dressed in the latest
style.-N Y. Hair Dealers Circular.

CONSIDER HOW THEY GROW.

Fair and lovely were the lilies,
With their beauty all aglow,
When our dear Lord spoke about them
On the mountain long ago.
Not the great Kings pODip and splendor.

Yet they toiled not anr they spun not,
Gniy grew and bloSs omed there.
So He taught us from the lilies
And the birds thst flew above.
How our Father catches DER us
With His tendo. care and love. \
But there is a., other lesson,
That our Lr,rd would have US know
1t is, when he sees the lilies,
To cor der how they grow"
From thrar roots so dark and ugly
They reach upward to the light,
Till they glisten in the sunshine.
Bud md blossom pure and white.
Flingirg far and near the fragrance
From their chalices of snow,
Honer laden golden hearted,
Thus it is the lilies grow.
So the hearts dark. sad and hidden,
Gripping feebly toward the light
Str1y ing each day to reach upward.
Msy grow fair and pure and bright
There is q struggle and endeavor
In this ris ny from below.
But the beauty of the lilies
Is because the lilies grow.

Growth of Cities.

The rapid growth OF some OF our cities
since the census of 1880 is shown by the
more recent enumeration of inhabitants
which has been made. For instance,
five years ago, Chicago had population
of 500, 175: it is now over 100000. San
Francisco had 233,959; the last count
gives $4,000. The tenth census gave
