The Stone which the Builders Refused.

Every Royal Arch macon will thank
I Brother Cammeck for the foilowiGg extracts
from Spureeon:
l have heard q story-I canuot tell wheth
er IL is true or not-out of some of the Jew
ish Rsbbis; it ie tale concerning the text
".rhe stone which the builders refused, the
same Is become The hesdsione ofthe corner"
Il is said when Soiomon's temple was build
ipg, all the stones were brought frcm the
quarry ready-cut and fashioned, and there
we're marked on ali the blocks the places
they were to be put. Amongst the stones
was very curious one 1t seemed OF no de-
scribahle shape. It appeared unfit for any
portion of the building. They tried at this
wall but it would not fit; they tried 1t in
another, but it could not be accommodated
so, vexed and angry, they threw it away.
The temple was go many years building that
this stone became covered with NOSE and
grass grew arouni It, Every body passing
by laughed at the stone; they said Solomon
was u ise, ami doubtless ell the other stones
were rgh. but, as Toe that block, they
might es well send it Usck 10 the quarry, for
they were quite sure it was meant for moth
ing. Year after year rolled on, and the poor
stone was still despised the builders con.
stant:y refused IT, The eventful day
came when the temple was 10 be
finished and opened and the multi.
:ude was to see the grand sight. The
builders said Where Ia the top stone?
Where is the pinnacle ?'' They little thought
where The GROWING marble was, until some
one said Perhaps that stone, which the
builders refused, is meant to be the top
stone" They then took it, and hoisted it
10 the top Of the house and, as it reached
the summit, the found 1t well adapted for
the place. Loud hosannahs made the
welkin ring, as the stone which the builders
refused thus became the headstone of the
corner. So 1t is with Christ Jesus. The
builders cast him away. He was plebe-
ian, be was Of poor extraction, he was
man acqusinted with sinner5, who walked
in poverty and meanness; hsnce, the world
". wise d;spised him. But when God shall
gather together 10 one, all things that are
10 heaven and that are in earth, then Christ
shall be the glorious consummaticn of all
things.
Christ regns in Heaven, the topmost stone,
And we'll deserves the praise"
He shall be exalted, he shall be honored;
his name shall endure as long as the sun,
and al nations shall be blessed in him yea,
eli generations shall call him blessed.

Heartburn, Restlessness,
or Sleeplessness-a good

give relief. So perfectly
harmless is this remedy
that it can be taken by
the youngest infant or
the most delicate person
without injury, no matter
what the condition of the
system may be. It can
do no harm if it does no
good, but its reputation
for 40 years proves it
never fails in doing good.

Why Men Wear Long Hair.

The ancient Britons, like the Gauls,
wore long, bushy hair, beard and mus
tache. The Romanized Britons shaved
their faces and adopted the shorter hair
of their conquerors. The Saxons, accord
ing to blanche, are generally represented
with long hair parted in front, forked
boards and mustaches; but in the Tenth
and Eleventh centuries, with the excep-
ton of old men, they appear to have
cropped their locks and shaved their
chins, preserving only their mustaches.
Long hair was distinguishing char
acteristic of the Tentonic tribes. 1t was
mark of the highest rank among the
Franks, none of whom. save princes of
the blood and nobility, were permitted
to wear it in flowing ringlets: an express
law commanded the commonalty to cut
their hair close round the middle of the
forehead. The beard was also held in
the greatest reverence by them, and to
touch it stood in lieu of solemn OATH

CHINESE RUNNING THE BLOCKADE.
Railway Changes in the West.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 29.-One of the first
effects of the absorption of the st. Louis
and San Francisco road by the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe will be the putting
on of fast train from st. Louis to the
southwest. The Frisco main line con-
meets with the Santa Fe system at Burton,
Ras., and commencing next Sunday the
Frisco night express from st. Louis will
take out throughlsleeper for San:Diego and
will connect at Burton with the Santa Fe
through train for San Francico. The fol-
lowing Sunday the Frisco will put on three
fast trains to run daily between st. Louis
and Western Kansas, Colorado, San Fran
cisco, Southern California and Mexico.
This will give to the whole Southwest new
fast service; also to the far West and Pacific
coast, and will shorten the time from four
to eighteen hours between st. Louis and
the Pacific coast and the Kansas service
will be greatly accelerated. The equip
ments will be first class in every respect.

A notable attempt has been made &c
add to the resources of the English Ian
guage. Lord Bury, as chairman of the
Electric Traction company, wrote to The
Times to ask for short word-if posi-
BILE of one syllable-to express the idea OF
being conveyed by electric power. As
might have been expected, letter after
letter poured in, full of strange and won
derful suggestions. The following are
only few of the cacophonoos verbs
which scientific and unscientific writers
alike submitted for consideration: To
"ohm,' to volt" to mote" to 'elec-
trise," to "coulomb," to "squirm," to
shock" to franklin" to "scint," to
elk" to 'trictrac," to "faradate," to

choice; perhaps America will help us, as
it did with the verb to wire. Muir
