Christ assembled from aspot on Mt. Olives one
Sabbath days journey from Jerusalem. (Acts,
l 12.) A Sabbath days journey was 1000
the distance was seven -tenths of a mile. But
the account given in ST. Luke's Gospel says the
ascension occurred at Bethany. lSt. Luke,
p : jO) But St. John, IL 1S. says Bethany
was about II furlongs from Jcru-aem-that is
to say, about two miles. Bethany was the name,
probably, not only Of the village but Of the
town, and the town would reach, not unlikely,
quite to the summit Of Mt. Olives, and so in
Clude the spot which was scven-tenths of a
mile from the Capital. The same writer was
author Of both accounts.

We mean by the ascension that ChrisCs
b0dy-the body apparently in which Christ
suffered and ded-the body that rose from the
dead relieved of all the effects of deceasc, in
vigorated with new life as a recovery rom the
marriug received in his human 5trugge-that
said body rose higher and higher from sight
till out Of vision on way to the former Home
of Christ. In the process it probably lost all
human weaknesses and wants, and was fitted
for the life in glory.
). Reasons Of the ascension.
1. To fulfill prOPbesies. Ps., 65 Is. CT. Eph,
AS.
?. To interccde for sinners Heb, 9:2f
3. To secure Gods Endorsement. Phil, 2 8,

A. To attract Us toward Heaven.
>. To prepare mansions for Us.
8. To display his triumph over all foes.
Z. To give gifts to men.
8. To show his work on earth was finished

9. To take the throne as our King.
10. TO be at Home.
H. To give greater universally to Chris

II. To send the Holy Spirit. St. John, 1871

The lEomanl Catholic. Greek and Anglican

vior by special religious services 40 days after

g Conclusion.
We must not stand 10 gaze TOO long,
Though on uufoI ding Heaven our gaze we bend,
Where lost behind thc bright angelic throug,
We see Cnrst's entering triumph slow ascend
No fear but we shall soon behold,

Our wasted fEHmes feel the true and live.
Then shall we see Thee rs Thou art

What is all this hubbub about the
great advance in the price Of artificial
teethT' inquired a reporter of Al Auburn
dentist. We'll, sir, the fact is the
manufacturers arc advancing the price
on their goods very fast" lis the ad-
vance in your judgment legitimate or Is
it speculative" 80 far 1t is entirely
legitimate. l have been in this office
thirteen years, and during that time
nothing has occurred TO change the
price of teeth l per cent, but during the
last few months the price Of platinum
has advanced very rapidly. and as there
is no other known metal of which the
pins a be made that hold the teeth to
the plate it can readily be seen the
manufacturers are obliged to advance
their prices.
AT present it is difficult L see just
where this state OF things will lead US.
All our platinum is at present mined in
Russia and the production is growing
less every day while the demand for it
is rapidly increasing, and hat too in
many new industries which have not
heretofore used it. l see nothing ahead
but the continued advance in artificial
teeth for II long time to come. At least
this is the advice we are receiving from
the wholesale houses every little while

Tho coal waste commission appointed
to consider the question of coal waste in
Pennsylvania, consisting of Messrs. ].
A. Price. Eckley B. Coke and P. W.
Shear, has issued q circular letter ask
ing Eul suggestions and information as
to the best means Of diminishing waste
in the mining of coal in the future as
well as of utilizing the mountains of
culm now existing in the anthracite dis
trict. The commission consists of three
Of the best informed and most practical
coal operators in the state. 1t might be
supposed that these men could furnish
information on the subject instead Of
asking for it, and so they probably can
and will at the right time.
They are well enough informed, how
ever, to realize that in a multitude Of
counselors there Is wisdom, and their
appeal to those who as well as them
selves have been making n study of this
subject isfully justified. The anthracite
coal field is now well defined, and 1t is
scarcely probable that any considerable
new deposits OF this valuable and neces-
sary fuel will be discovered In the United
States. Under the present wasteful sys-
TEN Of mining by which scarcely more
han one-third Of the coal is utilized for
actual use this supply will be exhausted
at furthest in a couple Of centuries. 1t
is quite time therefore that some better
system should be employed IL possible

The case Of the man Borras, the vic
tim of wrongful conviction for murder.
was brought before the chamber. NJ.
Thevenet, who was minister of justice
at the time of the trial, defended his ac-
ton in the matter. He expressed him
self awkwardly when he said hat no
other criminal but Borras could be
found. Nobody wa wrong. The fault,
If there was any, lay in the code of Grim
inal investigation. NJ. Thevenet also
said that Borras being only pardoned
could not demand a new trial and that
in law the heirs Of the Murdered man
Pradis had = I1yht to bring the action
in whth they have just engaged against

A rather unusual marriage ceremony
was performed in Shapleigh the other
day. Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel E. Shack
ley were married thirteen years ago,
and soon after the wedding the clergy
man who united them died. Recently
Mrs. Shackley, not having any mar
rage certificate, became uneasy, insti-
tuted Inquiries and found that no legal
record of the marriage existed. So she
determined to have the ceremony per
formed anew and properly recorded,
and this was done. The wedding was
in the presence of invited guests. and
not even the cake was omitted

There is u grating in the sidewalk
next the Potter building, Park row.
from which hot air comes up from the
steam boilers in the basement. Near
by is a handsomely decorated show
window. One hot day l saw n coun
uyman standing over the grating and
looking intently at the window display.
l stopped a few steps away and pres
emily saw him take out his pocket
handkerchief and wipe his face and
forehead. The beads of sweat were
pouring out of his skin and he was as
red in the face as a boiled lobster. He
saw me looking at him after about the
fourth or fifth wiping with his hand
kerchief, and he remarked: Gosh, but
it's hot! This must be another of them
