IMPERsoNAL REMARKS.

A Paving COntraetOr-Granlte paving
has its great advantages. and vice versa.
Among others of the latter is the fact
that it has nearly destroyed bicycling.
The granite is so fatal to rubber tires
that it requires SO much to keep ma
chine in repair that but few can enjoy
the sport.
A Jeweier-There is a marked in
crease this spring in the demand for.
gentlemen'S jewelry. 1t used to be con-
sidered good form to display very little
gold or jewels, but now fashion leaders
have made new departure. The shirt
studs most called for are snowy, and
quaint scarf-pins are the rage. 1t is
just the same with watch chains, which
must now be heavy and look costly.
Finger rings must have large stones in
them or be wide and heavy. But the
greatest feature of the jewelry trade
this year, SO far, has been the demand
for fancy loeketS with long chains, to be
worn round the neck.
A Florist-There is much discussion
at present as to how flowers can be best
preserved to send to far-away people.
When it is desirable to send floral souv-
enirs there is much chagrin that the
perfuned beauties arrive in a mashed,
dilapidated and disc0lered condition at
their objective point. This can easily
be rectified by little care and atten-
ton. The best method is to pack the
flowers i'm ice. That IS sure Dreserv-
alive, especially if little salt is sprink-
led over the crystalline surface.
A Doctor have seen men and women
increase their lung power-chestex pan-
sion it is called technically-by five min
utes' exercise morning and night. Stand
up straight OH the balls of the feet. head
thrown back, and inhale deeply, first in-
f1ating the lower part of the lungs. and
then the upper. Then expire slowly,
letting the chest sink first and then the
lungs. Do this fifteen times, morning
and evening. and my word for it. you'll
spend less money On colds and catarrhs.

"Stringing a Granger.

In Illinois, as in many other states, there
is law which provides that railroad
company cannot be made to pay more than
$4,000 killing person, though there.Is no
limit to the amount for which company
may be sued for merely manning a person
One day Senator Henry H. Evans, who likes
joke better than he does meal, was tel
ling one of his rural constituents about this
law as they were riding together from Au.
rora to Chicago.
"Waal," said the granger, finally, "1t's a
durn sight cheaper, then, fur'em to kill a
man than to cut off an arm or leg"
''Of course it is" said the senator, and
then lowering his voice to whisper, he said
in the granger's ear, "you see that axe up
there 2''

ing at the tools carried in the car for use in

Faithful in Little.

While Thomas Scott, the President of a
great American railway, was travelling in
England, he was struck with the care Civ
en- to beautifying the grounds about the
railway stations. The trees, vines and rose
gardens contrasted strongly with the disor-
derly clay ''yards" which he had been ac-
customed to see in America. On his return
in the early spring, Mr.. Scott gave sum
of money to each station master ON tho
Pennsylvania railroad toward beautifyiug
the grounds. The amount was proportion.
ed to the importance and size of the stop
ping place, and a reward was offered to tie
man who should make the best use of the
money received. In August the reward
was given to the keeper of little country
station. much to the chagrin of some mas
ters of the larger ones, who thought their
grounds much more beautiful and pictur-
esque.
'This man." said Mr., Scott, received
but few dollars; while you, ten times as
much. He has used eyory penny with dis
cretion and has not spared his own labor.
This reward is given not to the man with
the largest opportunities, but to him who
makes the best opportunities that he has"
The justice of the principle thus laid
down is self evident; the principle itself is
abundantly insisted upon in the bible; but
it is too often forgotten or ignored.

The Canal uf JOSeDh,

How many of the engineering works of
the pineteenth century will there be in ex-
istence ia the year 5000? Very few, we
fear, and still less those that will continue
in the far off age to serve useful purpose.
Yet there is at least one great undertaking
conceived aud executed by IN engineer
which, during the space of 1000 years,
has never ceased its offica, on which the
life of a fertile province absolutely depends
to-day. We refer to the Bahr Joussuf-the
Canal of Joseph-built, according to ira
dition, by the son of Jacob, and which con-
stitutes not the least of the many blessings
he conferred on Egypt during the years of
his prosperous rule. This canal took it's
rise from the Nile at Asiut, and ran nearly
parallel with it for nearly $50 miles, creep
ing along under the western cliffs of the
Nile valley, with many bend and wind
ing, until at length it gained an emineuce,
as compared with the river bed, which en-
abled it to turn westward through mar
row pass and enter district which was
otherwise shut off from the fertilizing
floods on which all vegetation in Egypt
depends.
The northern end stood seventeen feet
above low Nile, while at the southern end
it was at an equal elevation with the river.
which watered province named the Fay
oum, endowing it with fertility and sup
porting large population. In the time of
the annual flood great part of the canal
was under water, and then the rivers cur
rent would rush in a more direct course
into the pass, carrying with it the rich silt
which takes the place of manure and keeps
the soil in a state of constant productive
ness.
All this. with the exception of the tradi-
ton that Joseph built it, eau be verified to-
day, and it is not mere supposition or ru-
NOR. Until eight years ago it was firmly
believed that the design has always been
limited to an irrigation scheme, larger, no
doubt, than that now in operation, as
shown by the traces of abandoned canals
and by the slow aggregation of waste water
which had accumulated in the Birket ell
Querun, but still essentially the same in
character.
MANY accounts have been written by
Greek and Roman historians, such as
Herodotus, Strabo, Mutianus and Pliny,
and repeated in monkish legends or por
trayed in the maps of the middle ages,
which agreed with the folks lore of the dis
trict. These tales explained that the canal
dug by the ancient Israelites served to car,
ry the surplus waters of the Nile into an
extensive lake lying south of the Fayoum,
and so large that it not only modified the
climate, tempering the arid winds of the
desert, and converting them into the balmy
airs which nourished the vines and the
olives into fullness and fragrance unknown
in any part of the country, but also added
to the food supply of the land such immense
quantities of fish that the royal prerogative
of the right of piscary at the great weir
was valued at $3.50, 900 annually. This lake
was said to be 450 miles round and to be
navigated by feet of vessels, while the
whole circumference was the scene of in
dustry and prosperity. y.--From Engineering.

invention was improved. and one day there
was perfect lifeboat, the Northumberland,
ready at Ramsgate. The lifeboat being
ready, 10 test it the crew came out and
leaped on the gunwale on one side to see
il the boat would upset; it was impossible
to upset it. Then, amid the huzzas of ex-
cited thousands, that boat was launched,
and it has gone and come, picking up a
great many Of the shipwrecked. But have
to tell you now of a grander launching, and
from the dry docks of heaven. Word came
that world was beating on the rocks. Ia
the presence of the poteutates of heaven
the life boat of the worlds redemption was
launched. 1t showed off the golden sands
amid angelic hosanna. The surges of
darkness beat against its bow, but it sailed
on, and it comes in sight of US this hour.
1t comes for you, it comes for me. Soul!
soul! get into it. Make one leap for heav.
en-. Let that boat go past and your oppor-
tunity is gone.
| am expecting that there will be whole
families here who will get into that life
boat. In 1888 the Isabella came ashore off
Hastings, England. The air was filed
with sounds-the hoarse sea trumpet, the
crash of the axes, and the believing of the
tornado. A boat from the shore came un-
der the stern of the disabled vessel. There
were women and children on board that
vessel. Some of the sailors jumped into
the small boat and said, Snow give us the
children" A father who stood on deck
took his first born and threw him to the
boat. The sailors caught him safely, and
the next, and the next, to the last. Still
the sea rocking, the storm bowling
"Now," said the sailors, ''now the moth
err" and she leaped, and was saved. The
boat went to the shore; but before it got to
the shore, the landsmen were so impatient
to help the suffering people that they wad
ed clear down into the surf with blankets
and garments, and promises of help and
succor. So there are whole families here
who are going to be saved, and saved al
together. Give us that child for Christ,
that other child, that other. Give us the
mother, give us the father, the whole fani-
ly. They must all come in. All heaven
wades in to help you. l claim this whole
here nor one man there; claim you all.
There are some Of you who, thirty years
ago, were consecrated TO Christ by your
parents in baptism Certainly i am not
stepping over the right bound when l claim
you for Jesus. Then there are many here |
who have been seeking God for good |
while, and am not right in claiming you
for Jesus? Then there are some here who
have been further away, and you drink, and
you swear, and you bring up your families
without any God to take care of them when
you are dead. And claim you, my bro
thei; claim all of you. You will have to
pray sometime; why not begin now: while
all the ripe and purple cluster of divine
promise bend over into your cup, rather
than postpone your prayer until your
chance is past, and the night drops, and the
sea washes you out, and the appalling fact
shall be announced that notwithstanding
al. your magnificent opportunities, you have
become a cast.away.

$4,000 Found in an Ash Barrel.

his case hopeless, DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Disco 1ery will cure him. Con-

right at the root of the evil, and there is no

Some twenty years ago, Herr Falb, an
Austrian scientist, FIRST suggested the possi-
bility that the moon may act upon the
great ocean of molten matter beneath the
earth's crust exactly as it acts in producing
the tides of the external ocean of water
He now considers that the reality of such
action is proven, and that the earth's crust
is severely strained, and more or less
warped and broken, at the times the
theory would indicate. 1t is during the
periods of greatest strain resulting from
the moons attraction that earthquakes ap-
pear to be most likely to occur, and that
gases seem to be forced into coal mines to
such an extent as greatly to increase the
explosions.
