when Once They Lie Down They Will
Only Rise When They Please.
If any other animal gives out it is
still possible to make it travel a few
miles by a judicious use of patience
and a club, but not so with a camel.
When he lies down he will get up only
when he feels like doing So; you may
drag at the string which is fastened to
the stick through his nostrils till you
tear it out, he will only groan and spit.
1t was my first experience with camels.
and I vowed it should be my last; for,
taking them alto2 ether, they are the
most tiresome and troublesome ami
mails I have eve seen, and are suited
only to Asiatics, the most patient and
long-suffering Of human beings.
Besides their infirmities of temper,
resulting. I believe, from hereditary
dyspepsia, as evidenced by such coated
tongues. offensive breaths and gurgling
stomachs as l have een with no other
%ruminants, they are delicate in the ex-
IRENE. They can work only in the
winter months, for as soon as their
wool begins to fall, Samson like. their
strength abandons them.
They can travel only over a country
whore there are no stones, for the pads
of their feet wear out and then they
have to be patched. a most troublesome
operation. The camel is thrown and
a piece Of leather stitched on over the
foot. the stitches being taken through
the soft part of it; in this condition
it may travel till the skin has thickened
again; or what is more likely, until it
refuses to take a step.-Centurv.

FACTS ABOUT ICE,
How Scientists Expl,in EnigmaS Cun-
corning Congenled Water.

How Scientists Expl,in EaigmaS Cum
corning ~Congemled Water.
Did you aver wonder that ice, being
formed OF concealed WAGER, floats? asks
a writer in The St. Louis Republic.
And why on some still lakes. it begin
to form at the bottom before it ices Oh
the %surface2 Scientists explain these
enlgmas this wise: Ice is specifically
lighter than wafer just about to freeze,
and, therefore, floats in it. This is
one reason why the formation of ice
usually begins at the surface. An.
other is its peculiar law OF expansion.
The general law is thaC cold induces
expansion; this law holds good with
water only to q certain point. When
water has cooled down to within IA
degrees of freezing it ceases to con-
tract as before with increase Of cold
and begins to expand till it'freezes.
This expansion causes the colder
portions of the water to rise to the
surface. The formation of '.ground
ice," or "anchor ice" as it is some
times called, is the only exception to
the rule given above. The whole body
of water is at the same time cooled to
below the freezing point, and the SUBJ
stances at the bottom, the stones and
gravel of the river or lake bed serve
as a point of congelation or crystalli-
2ation for the water. Ground ice may
be the lowest stratum OF the once
completely frozen mass OF water, re-
tanned at the bottom by the natural
cohesion to the rough substances of
the river-bed. during the thawing and
melting Of the ice on the surface: or
it may even be formed under favorable
conditions beneath briskly flowing wa
ter, probably by the action of eddies,
which draws the surface water down
through the warmer but denser liquid.
thus cooling the rocks at the bottom.
forming a base for its formation. This
remarkable species of ice usually gath
ers on a clear, cold night, when the
surface of the water is not frozen.

THE CAUSE.

The present time throughout the
country is one OF hardships and priva-
tions. People every where are trying to
find the cause OF this trouble. Almost
every paper or magazine we pick up has
long articles on this subject. Some adj
vocate single tax as a remedy for the
evil. Others, a change in our present
financial system; and still others a
better and more thorough method in
the management of our farms. Most OF
these articles have more or less to say
about the farmer aud a great many
people are beginning to get disguised
with having his o and pr1vatio rs
paraded before them 50 often. But this
ia a question not to be carelessly thrown
aside and left to take It's own course,
but to be quietly and ntelligentlylooked
into; studied from its various points Of
view and decided. Aud on the dpcision.
rests the happiness and prosperity OF
the nation.
Some OF the articles on our present
condition are full OF truth and point out
plainly the causes and remedies. Two
of the best remedies that have been pro-
posed and which cover a great deal, are

necessities, and a system by which thess
necessities canreach the consumer more
directly and at less expense. But I be-
lieve we can 60 buck OF these and find
the cause for a part OF the shortage: OF
crops, poor mediums Of exchange and
all bad laws. A cause which includes
all the Others. "We have strayed from
God" In the words Of a gentleman |
heard talking on this subject some time
ago, "Agreat many people came to this
country expecting to make a fortune,
and consequently have neglected their
family worships, weekly prayer meetings,
Sunday schools, and broken the Sab
oath" Have. you been doing all in
your power tn encourage and carry on
a good live Sunday schools in your neigh
burhood or have you discouraged 1T by
your indifference and staying at home?
Are you attending the weekly prayer
mieetiug i'll your community, or, if there
are none, have you ever suggested hold
ing such meetings? DO you study your
bible carefully and take It's teachings as
your guide through your daily tasks and
in all your business transactions? l
know a great many will not look at this
as l do, but if you will follow up this
line OF thought you will understand it
more clearly. Ii we were true followers
OF Christ, we you'd not run quickly
over our work, bat would be ''diligent i'll

The of u present financial
troubles and unjust legislation are
