heard an old farmer talk, one day
Telling his listeners how,
In a wide, new country, far away,
The rainfall followed the pillow.
'sAs fast as they break II up, you see.
And turn the heart To the sun,
As they open The burrows deep and free,
And the tilla2e il begun,
The earth grows mellow, and more and more
1t holds and sends to the sky,
moisture 1t never had before
When its face was hard and dry.
And so, whenever the plowshares run,
The clouds roll overhead;
And the soil that works aud lets In the sun,
With water is always fed.''
I wonder if that old farmer knew
The half of his simple word,
Or guessed the message that Heavenly, true,
Within it was hidden and heard.
It fell on my ear by chance that day,
Bnt the gladness fingers now,
To think it Is always Gods dear way,
That the rainfall follows the pillow.

Cool AIR DRTING.-A new American
process Cor rapidly drying timber, hides,
wool, grain and other substances sur
charged with moisture, has been attract
ing considerable attention in England. It
is called the cool-dry air process, and
consists in passing through the chamber
containing the moisture-laden material a
continuous current of furnace-dried air
having temperature between so and
80 degrees Fahrenheit. The moisture is
absorbed by the air in so remarkable a
way that oak logs are reported to have
been finished in nine days, although nat
ural drying would have required three or
four years. The temperature is SO mod
crate that delicate fibres, fabrics and
chemicals are not injured.

A METEOROLOGICAL PHENOMENON
noticeable feature in the climate of south
eastern India, according to Col. B. R.
Branfill, of the London Geographical So
ciety, is the frequent lightning storms,
which occur daily for weeks together,
before the setting in of the southwest
monsoon, unaccompanied by rain Or by
any sound. of thunder This curious
phenomenon is most frequent in districts
where land and sea breezes alternate with
much regularity.

"Rather Poor Concerns"

A newspaper and newspaper editor
that people don't talk about, and some
times abuse, are rather poor concerns.
The men and business that an editor
sometimes feels it bis duty to defend, at
the risk of making enemies of another
class, are often the very first to show in
gratitude. The editor who expects to
receive much charity or gratitude will
soon find out his mistake; but ne should
go ahead and say and do what he con-
scientiously thinks right without regard
to frowns or smiles.

On Sunday night last the scholars of Cen
tenarv NJ. E. Sabbath School, Westminster,
held there annual missionary anniversary
The church was packed and a number were
unable to get inside. A platform was erected
and was beautifully decorated. The school

numbering about 1853. Promptly at the ap-
nointed hour they marched from the lecture
room to the platform, led by their superin-
tendant, Col. S. X. Herr. The exercises
consisted mostly of singing. The most anus
ing feature was the report of classes by the
busy bees. A large bee hive was placed IN
the centre of the platform, while number oil
children stood near it. When the report was
asked for, the children made noise, repre-
senting the buzzing of a swarm OF bees. Inc
amount collected was placed in the bee hive
for mission work. During the evening MISS
Mamie Heyde recited, in very charming
manner. SFling Down Your Gold" Mr..
Mowbray delivered touching address on
Missions. and Mr.. Mitchell sang beautiful
solo. entitled "Your Mission" The school
sang some very pretty selections, ana the an
niyersary taken as whole was very ENJOY
able affair. Miss Julia Yingling presided at
the organ and Mr.. Frank Mitten led the sing
ing. At the close of the exercises Messrs.
Frank Mitten, S. X. Herr and DIR. ID. +.
Shirley were made life members of the mis-
sionary society. 30

Last week we were visited by one OF the
severest wind storms fthe season. Consider
able damage was done. About l4OO square
feet of roofing was blown off the Geiser Com
pany shops, and carried across the street Ike
a feather. 1t was done in a instant OF time,
and it landed on the roof of the American
Company's shop, smashing sky lights to atoms.
When it happened the hands were very much
frightened fearing the worst had notyet come,
but fortunately escaped any further injury:
The same day Friday the tin was blown on
the roof of several houses, in what's commonly
known as 'Rinehartis Row" The dwellings
in various parts of the town were shaken as
though they were threatened with immediate
destruction, and the occupants were AFRAID TO
retire when night came.
