by failing to draw out the country dele

delegates as it is to control FIVE.

HUMANITARIAN SOCIETIES.
The Review is in receipt of circu-
lar letter from Minneapolis which sets
forth the articles of federation of the
humanitarian alliance, whose members
are enjoined to "accept the world as
their country and all men as their bre.
thern; to accept observation, experience
and natural enlightment as teachers,
and reason with a right premise as their
only guide; to demand no more than
they are willing to render and to allow
the same liberties to others that they
desire for themselves; to encourage one
another to meet the inevitable with for
titude, and to courageously acknowledge
the majesty of truth; to submit to the
DEGREES of wisdom, and to respect the
opinions Of others-when not dogmatic-
ally laid down as truth; to cherish vir-
tue, propriety, benevolence, sincerity,
reciprocity, and kindness, aiming to
make all events profitable, all days holy
and all actions worthy of emulation"
There are excellent principles, but it
is only too probable that tho society will
meet With fate similar to that which
has been accorded many others, started
for equally noble purposes. The trou-
bic with such societies nowadays is that
they endeavor to get along without hard
work. They 60 forth, buoyed up only
by excellent theories, and preaching
benevolence and kindness with the ex-
pectance that others will be found to
carry out their teachings. Mutual ad.
miration clubs of this kind are all right
in as far as they set good example,
but let it be understood that if society
would do efectual work for the cause
of humanity it must not be backward in
lending willing hands as well as willing
mouths. Again, as is particularly so
in the case of the Minneapolis society,
there is generally an endeavor with
such orders to cover too much ground
and frequently to accomplish various
things which have nothing in harmony.
A society which undertakes to root out
all the dogmas existing in the world and
to enter into discussion of all the
vexed questions of religion and science
has not the time to attend to those little
deeds of kindness and charity which
are so important to the amelioration of
the miseries of mankind. Either task
IS sufficient in itself for the work If a
whole society, and any order that at
tempts all will hardly be successful in
any.

ted suicide by drowning last Saturday.

made ON attempt upon the life Of Miss

MAKING GLOBES.
A Description OF How Geographical
Spheres Are Constructed.

A Description OF How Geographical
Spheres Are Constructed.
The first process is to cover the
model with thick layer Of pasteboard
in a moist state. When It is dry a
sharp knife Is passed around II SO as
to separate the pasteboard coat into
two hemispherical shells. which are
then taken Of the model and united at
the out edges with glue. Tho hollow
sphere thus formed is the skeleton OF
the globe that Is to ue.
The next thing 10 to cover 1t with a
coating Of white enamel about one
eigth OF an inch In thickness. When
this u done the ball Is turned into a
perfect roundness with a machine.
The iron rod running through the GEN.
ire Of the original model and project
ing at both ends through the surface
has left holes in the new globo, which
serve for the north and south poles.
and through these metal axis Is
run to represent the axis Of the earth.
Then the surface IL marked of with
pencil lines into mathematical seq
monts corresponding precisely In shape
with the sections Of map that are to be
pasted on. These map sections are
made from copper plates in Just the
sizes and shapes required TO At the
globe they ara made for. one set OF
course. covering the ontire surface OF
sphere. They are printed, many OF
them. like dress patterns, on sheets of
the finest linen paper, and are cut out
carefully with sharp pointed knife.
When they have been pasted on, the
different countries are tinted by hand
with water colors. There 10 no special
rule for this. except that contrasts are
sought TO help the eye. Finally the
whole Is overlaid with q brilliant white
varnish. which IL OF almost metallic
hardness, and It will wear indefinitely
without scratching and without losing
It's brightness. Boston Transcripts.
