In the sudden death of Leo Gibson Har-
vey, the seven-year-old child of Mr. and
Mrs. James F. Harvey, the grief-stricken
parents, lost an exceedingly bright and in
telligent son. He was always very affec-
tionate and dutiful to his parents, and be-
ing their only child, 1t was but natural that
they would crafty and indulge him In his
pure childish ways. He was appreciative
and sensitive to high degree for one of
his tender age. He was almost idolized
by both his parents and grand parents, and
yet he was model child in his disposition.
He peacefully passed away, and his little
spirit was borne away by the white-winged
whose souls have been washed white by the
redeeming blood Of the Lamb. Blessed are
those who die young, for Heaven will surely
be their inheritance.
He never gave his parents any unneces-
sary trouble or grievance that he could
avoid. Although not quite seven years old
he punctually attended both day and Sun
day schools. The little fellow was a great
favorite at Wesley Chapel Sunday School,
Of which he was an honored member. His
Sunday school friends and Others were very
liberal In their floral gifts to be placed on
his little coffin, knowing his fondness for
them while living. Leo was taken with the
diphtheria in malignant type, and died on
Tuesday, March 10, at 7:50 Il. M, after an
Illness of ten days.
He never complained during his sickness,
but bore his sufferings with that commend
able fortltude which would have reflected
credit upon one many years his senior, al
ways ready and willing to take his medi-
cines from the loving hearts and willing
hands Of his parents whenever 1t became
necessary. 1t was truly said that he was
the little sunbeam In the household. His
vacant chair and little bed are among the
things which are yet familiar to his
parents, and, with their child's memory,
are never to be forgotten. They have the
tenderest sympathy Of many friends and
relatives in their great bereavement.

backward Before Royalty,

When will royal personages have the
good sense, asks London Truth, to abolish
the ridiculous custom of making meaner
mortals walk backward before themS To
see General Gardiner, Lord Methuen and
Sir Henry Ewart performing this difficult,
absurd and even dangerous feat up the
steep staircase leading from the great porch
to the royal retiring rooms at the Albert
Hall on Friday would have been a severe
trial for the gravity OF the lockers on II the
spectacle had not been so painful No
doubt ceremonial, as a rule, is important as
serving to maintain the dignity OF great
offices; but any loss OF prestige involved In
abolishing this senseless practice might
easily be made up for in other ways. The
backers might be absolved, for example, on
condition OF their lying prone on the
ground at Her Majesty's approach. The
latter ceremonial might not be picturesque,
but 1t would at least be free from the risk
of sending an unfortunate old gentlemen
headlong down staircase.

ing ducks near each other in that "duck

the Colonel, being good shot and "to the
manner born," was knocking them right
and left; but the Doctor, being an expert
with the scalpel, but not with the gun, was
banging away at great rate without kill
ing bird, and very much excited, of course
Finally he shot at flying duck and missed
IL as usual. 10 his horror he noticed he had
shot almost directly toward the Colonel,

Crowds at the Panorama.

The panorama of the Battle of Manassas,
or Second Bull Run, continues to draw large
and interested crowds of spectators every
day and evening. The realistic manner in
which the thrilling scenes of this terrible
fight are shown has the effect OF making the
picture grow on the spectators, and many
of them return day after day and each time
discover new features and new beauties In
the wonderful painting. The courteous
gentlemen in attendance are ready and eager
TO give all information respecting this re-
maTkable scene, in order that visit to the
panorama may be instructive as we'll as in-

ing an object does not in any way
increase or alter the,quantity Of light
which it receives, aud IN the instance
just mentioned, the image which
appears one inch square will have
only the light which falls ON the OBJ

one hundreth of an inch square.
The practical result must he that
any given portion of the image is
only the ten thousandth as well

To- overcome this difficulty and to
render minute objects visible ut all
under high magnifying powers, is to
/ contrive to throw, by some artificial
| contrivauce, such powerful light
upon the object To be examined as

scribed. Various contrivances of
mirrors, lenses and prisms are used
for this purpose and accomplish the
result in II satisfactory manner. To
this process however, there must be
of course practical limit, and l
fancy that the task of adequately
Illuminating an object which was to
be magnified four hundred thousand
times as many diameters as our
present instruments are capable of,
would be very serious matter. An
object which had its diameter mag
nfcd 204 ,700,0 900 would have its
apparent area increased no less
than 419,020, 100000 times. Oh!

Imagine now the results which must

are increased in the same ratio that

we have instruments for scanning
the heavens, more than four hundred
thousand times rs powerful as any
now in use When asked to serious
ly contemplate the possibilities in
volved in such n state of affairs, the
Imagination becomes inebriated and
the brain threatens to hand in its
resignation. If | am not mistaken
: in the little calculation | have hur-
riedly made, the sun can then be as

tance was less than half a mile, and
