As health tonic and fat producer
the fumes of petroleum have mole vir-
tues than all the nostrums in the market.
If any one doesn't believe this, says the
Philadelphia Record, let him travel down
to Point Breeze and look at the stout
and robust commanders and sailors who
man the steamships that carry oil in bulk
between that port and Europe. These
men live and sleep among the fumes OF
petroleum. They breathe them in with
every inhalation. When the tanks are
empty the fumes are even stronger than
when they are full, but the men on board
flourish and grow fat all the time. Dys-
pepsia, insomnia and all the ordinary
diseases are unknown to them. Sailors
broken down with dissipation in port
soon pick up when they get on board a
tanker and breathe in the heavy odor of
the crude oil or the more penetrating
fumes of the refined product. Many sick
and consumptive persons, aware of the
healing properties of the oil fumes, ap-
ply for admission to travel on the tank
ers, but as there are no passenger accom-
modations on the vessels their requests
are necessarily refused.

thank God, not forever She walks on the
piazza, or stands for nsment by her rose
bush; she will come soon and fill the seat SO

How many times has she touched the hem

prayer that from the multitude of angels
thronging his holy presence he has turned
to ask, "Who touched me?' and then came
the answer, daughter, be of good comfort,

prayed" More precious til a throne will
be this chair, if should lool upon it when
my mother has heard the summons, Come
up hither."-[s. A. W., in Exchange.

M. F. Adolphe, we'll known French
scientist, has prepared curious list OF
things that modern scientists and chem
lists are striving to discover, any one of
which will bring fabulous fortune to
the lucky discoverer. These are, the
crystallization of carbon, or the produc-
ton of artificial diamonds; the preven-
ton or cure of epilepsy and consump-
ton; the complete combustion of coal, of
which now scarcely more than five per
cent. is available; photography in nat
ural colors; the direct utilization of the
solar heat, and of the ebb and flow of
tides; the production of altar of roses
from some comparatively worthless SUBJ
stances, and the transmutation of other
metals into gold. The last, which has
been the wild dream of ages, Mr..
Adolphe seems to think is not altogether
hopeless. He says that as many other
supposed simple elements have turned
out to be compounds, the same may be
true of gold, and, if it be, its artificial
production is only question of time.

A NEW CREATION.

God never repairs. Christ never patches.
The gospel is not here to mend people. Re
generation is not scheme of moral tinker
Ing and ethical eobbling. What God does
He does new; new heavens, new earth, new
body, new heart = Behold, / make all
things new" In the gospel thus we move
into new world and under new scheme.
The creative DAYS are back again. We step
out Of regime of jails and hospitals and
reform shops. We get live effects direct
from God. That Is the gospel The
gospel is permanent miracle. God
at first hand-that is a miracle. The
gospel thus does not classify with
other schemes of amelioration. They are
tood, but this is not simply better, but dif-
ferent, distinct and better because d stinct;
1t works in new way, and works another
work. Compare the wrought chains riveted
ON the demoniac, and the Divine Word
working new creation in the demoniac.
1t Is all there. 1t is like the difference be-
tween the impotent Persian lashing the
turbulent sea with chains, and the gracious
Lord saying to the troubled sea, Peace, be
still i"-[Rev. C. Fl. Parkhurst.

cHRlsr1AN INDIVIDUALITY.

Christians sometimes overlook the fact
that God designs to carry forward His work
In the world, not only through varied agen-
cies but through individuals possessing
diverse mental characteristics. All the diff
ferences of natural temperament in His
chosen instruments should be gladly wei
coined; only so that they are sanctifed by
the Spirit and are enlisted in seeking the
one great end II we study the lives Of the
eyangelists, we will be impressed with the
peculiar personal traits that constantly be-
come apparent in their intercourse with our
Lord and with each other and we cannot
fail to be struck with the manner
in which these traits were employed by
their Master in furthering His king
dom. All this was clearly exhibited by the
apostles in the early period of the Church.
Indeed, the record furnished by the four
evangelists and that of the acts and the
episties, will give atruthfuI picture of church
life around us at the present. Gods servants
must possess Christian ndiyiduality-each
one fitted to act for himself-iu order to
reach the best development of Christian
doctrine, and TO give direction in practical
effort to the philanthropic and Christian
movements the age Methodist Protes-
tant.
