 The young doctor exchanged amused glances with me; he laughed low. But Mrs. Dawson stared steadily into her pocket handkerchief, and Beulah looked as grave as a tombstone. knew I was behaving very badly, but what could I do2
 "pm sorry opened the trunk" said I, ''but was so dreadfully, awfu1ly cu- rious to know what was in it."
 .'Believe me, Miss Barry" said the young doctor, 'I shall not prosecute you"
 '1t was very wrong of Letty,,' ? said solemn Beulah.
 ''1'm always doing something wrong,' said I, disconsolately.
 s'But it was so very thoughtful of you," said the doctor to Beulah, ''to remember that this trunk might possibly belong to mo. It sets all the little com plications at rest at once."
 "And you won't give up Mrs. Daw- sons rooms now2" said Beulah-kind Beulah, who was always thinking of other people.
 "Most assuredly not" said Doctor Carson.
 But after they had gone away, I went up to my room and cried.

 And I could not be comforted until Doctor Carson laughed me out of my scruples and modification.
 He came often to the house to call afterward. He said he owed so much to Beulahl
 suppose the skeleton was valuable, but he needn't have made so much fuss about it, thought.
 And one day when I was feeling very cross and miserable, Beulah came to me.
 ''Letty." said she, "guess what Doc tor Carson asked me to-day"
 t'It would require no fortune-teller to guess," said I. s'He asked you to marry him, and he has made a wise, wise choicel'

 ''What nonsense!" said Beulah-t'and I five years older than he at the very least. No. dear little Lefty; he asked me if I thought you would be willin g to endure the trials and privations of a young doctors wife.

The Elfel Tower as an Observatory.

The Etnel Tower as an ObservatOry.
 Among the varied scientific uses to which the magnificent Eiffel Tower at Paris may be put is the observation of the directions and force of the great upper ar currents. Hitherto such ob- servation has been merely inferential. The movements of the upper currents have been inferred from the movements of the upper clouds.
 But observations of upper clouds will never suffice, since they always fail just when most needed-during storms approach-the upper clouds be- ing then hidden by the lower. The only observations worth the name will be those taken with small captive balloons or some mechanical de- vice sent above the lower clouds into strata from five to seven thousand feet high, and registering approximately the directions and veloci- ties of the upper currents. These lofty mrial streams at times travel more than hundred miles an hour, and no doubt the strain upon any anemometrical in- strument floating in them would be very great. Nevertheless, French scientists can no doubt invent an inexpensive ap- paratus which will serve the purpose of high level experiments conducted from the summit of the tower.
 This unique structure, one thousand feet high, hos been called ''the future observatory. of civilization" As the Herald recently suggested editorially, it can be used for no scientific purpose of more importance than to clear up the question of the origin and translation of cyclones raised by M. Faye.

sThe Prince of Wales would make a better Viceroy of Ireland" thinks the Washington Star, "than any of the men who have filled Dublin Castle for 20 years. The Prince may not be pro- found statesman, but he has infinite tact and it would go hard if he did not win the hearts of the Irish people. If Salisbury makes this move it will be the cleverest step he has yet taken.'

Old Hymns.

Complaint is some. imes made that some of the hymns and Gospel songs of today lack the spirituality and deep re- ligious sentiment that should character ize songs of worship, and that did mark many of the old hymns written by Doctor Watts and others. While it is true that some of the most tender and beautiful hymns in all our hymnody were written by these old writers, others are subject to the objections made to many of our modern songs.
 A contributor to the Christian Union, writing on this subject, quotes some of the quaint old hymns which, to the present generation at all events, are not calculated to arouse religious feelings. Among them is one beginning,
 s'Ye monsters of the bubbling deep,
 Your Makers praises shout;
 Up from the sands, ye codlings, peep
 And wag your tails aboutP'
 It would be difficult for a congrega- tion of today to sing this without smil- ing, and the one that follows is almost as amusing:
 ''The race is not forever got
 By him who fastest runs,
 Nor the battle by the people,
 Who shoot the longest guns"
 A Northern clergyman, during the civil War, used to say that never until then had he found occasion or justiica- tion for his personal employment of David's imprecatory psalms; sentiment which was no doubt reciprocated on the other side. The fathers, however, sang without demur:
 ''Why dost Thou hold Thine hand aback,
 And hide it in Thy lap?
 Opluck it out, and be not slack
 To give Thy foes rapp'
 There seemed to be little provocative to devoutness, even though in form Scriptural, in the paraphrase of the One hundred and thirty third Psalm:
 ''Tis like the precious ointment
 Down Aaron's beard did go;
 Down Aaron's beard it downward went
 His garment skirts unto."
 But who is there who has not at some time had his heart touched and been thrilled by such old hymns as ''When l can Read my, Title Clear" "Am a Soldier of the Cross" "Come, Holy Spirit, Heavenly Dove," or .When I Survey the Wondrous Cross2"- Youth's COnpaniOn.
