DIR. aIacaulay,s UNIQUE Suggestion.

An Irish physician, DIR Henry Macaulay,
has made unique suggestion that the intense
heat of the sun in tropical countries be used
as en- agent for cooling buildings. He would
use Muchot's sur-engine for pumping cold air
into factories, dwellings, etc, as in this way
the temperature of the rooms may be reduced
from 100 to 60degrees. This plan isavailable
only where ice may be obtained. Detroit

DESTINY.

Nothing can harm us till our task il dona.
Secure as in the arms Of love are we,
Where roais the battle and where heayea
the sea,
And where the plague its carnage has begun,
Until the race marked out for us is run
Then earth and heaven can not save ns
The
Assassin Death, wherever we may fee,
LIS ON our track, and refuge there is none
What fools to yearn for anything but strength
For motives right Pauner or nresidant
1t is decided. We must learn at length
The pinnacle of wisdom is content.
A hfe's endeavor may be spurned by Fame,
And yet days may win deathless name.
