IN THE VERY FOCUS.

1t has been said that birds drop
dead in attempting to cross the
valley. Mr.. Hawkins, who visited
it in 1882, says that he picked up,
at differant times, two little birds,
a mile or so from water, whose
bodies were still warm, having
evidently but just dropped dead
The bodies of men and their hoT-
ses are liable to be encountered at
any time; they have been found
within mile of water, and in one
case with water still in their can
teens, aud a supply of food as vol,
showing that the climate was the
cause of death.
With those facts in view, it is
not unreasonable to say that the
name Death valley is well .bestow-
ed. And if this is the state Of
things on the elevated borders,
ranging from 1900 to 1000 feet
and more above the sea, what must

tional wonders Of Death valley is
that its central region lies away be-
low the level Of the sea. There IS
perhaps no other spot on the globe
which at 80 great a distance from
the ocean reaches such depres-

30. Lor, Hit I'm Againiv

In the early days of Methodism in Scot
land, n certain congregation, where there
was but one rich man. desired to build q
new chapel. A church meeting was held.
The old rich Scotchman rose and said {:
Brethren, we dinna need q new chapel:
I'll give f5 for repairs"
Just then q bit OF plaster falling from the
ceiling hit him on the head.
Looking up and seeing how bad it was,
he said: Brethren, it's worse thon l
THOUGHT; I'll make it so pun"
"Oh, Lord, exclaimed a devoted brother
on back seat, "hit i'm again"
There are many human tabernacles
which are in sore need of radical building
over, but we putter and fuss and repair in
spots without satisfactory results. 1t is
only when we are personally alarmed at
the real danger that we act independently,
and do the right thing. Then it is that we
most keenly regret, because. we did not
sooner use our Judgment follow the advice
born OF the experience of others and Jump
away from our perils.
Thousands OF persons who will read this
paragraph are in abiect misery to-day
when they might be in satisfactory con-
dition. They are weak, lifeless, full Of odd
aches and pains, and every year they know
they are getting worse, even though the
best doctors are patching them in spots.
The origin of these aches and pains is the
kidneys and liver, and if they would build
these all over new with Warmers sale cure
as millions have done, and cease investing
their money in miserably unsuccessful
patchwork, they would be well and happy
and would bless the day when the Lord
hit 'em' and indicated the common sense

In the United States some 10000

While Mr.. Lyman was chief clerk
of the Treasury Department he once
found 100000 in an envelope that had
only two Scent stamps on it stuck up
in one corner. One New York banking
firm never registered their letters. They
would seal $4,000 or $4,000 in large
envelope, and put two Scent stamps on
it, and throw in the letter-box at the
post-office. "They told me-" said Mr.
Lyman, "they found their losses aver.
