1.-THE Light of the World" is the name of
new poem completed by Sir Edwin Ar

long famous production, "The Light of

the Christian point of view. The later eff

of Buddhism. There exists "A great amount
of suffering among the poorer japanese at
present, and soon after finishing 1.-THE
Light of the World" Sir Edwin was per-
suaded to read extracts from his work at
an entertainment given in Toxic for the
purpose of raising funds for the afflicted.

New Earthquake Registers.

new styles of sciomoscopes have been in

phenomena of earthquakes with great ac
curacy These instruments are of very
simple nature, one consisting merely of an
iron rod about five inches long leaning
slightly against an adjustable screw support
near its middle, and with its lower pointed
end in cup. When a shock or tremor oc
ours the rod falls away from its support
and is caught by fixed metallic ring
