The Economy of the French.

Wnll6 Cno description OF ELI PERKINS OF
the French stove and its varied uses may be
somewhat exaggerated. it none too forcibly
illustrates the habits of the French people
in their household economy.
1.-THE stove is about the size of an ice.
water tank in Pullman car. 1t is loaded
with two quarts of coal, the small three
inch pipe adjusted to the chimney and the
coal lighted. After burning awhile the
draught is shut off. and the stove is wheeled
around the room. The room is warmed in
sections. First it is wheeled up to the old
man. who throws out his fingers. then
across to the old lady. who embraces it.
and then up to the baby. Then 1t is
wheeled back to the chimney, the draught
opened. and the fire rekindled. There are
usually two chimney holes about the room.
After one room has been treated to fire,
the stove is rolled into the hall or into an
other room. or taken by the handle and car
ried up stairs. The same stove is used in
the bed room to dress by, rolled into the
breakfast room like baby carriage. then
into the sitting room. 1t is multum in
parvO. 1t is COOK stove, fireplace. and
furnace. The American who burns ten
tons of coal in range, twelve tons in
furnace. and two tons in CRATES is amazed
when he sees a whole house in Paris
warmed with one ton Of coal. The twenty
tons used by the American would warm the
Boulevard des [taliens. Such overstraned
economy has, however. its disadvantage in
loss of health. and occasionally Of life it.

Capabilities of the Telephone.

The telephone is about to have new ap-
plication-that of foretelling storms. A
new discovery has been made as to one of
the properties of this means of transmit
ting sound. By placing two iron bars at
seven or eight meters distance from each
other, and then putting them in commun-
cation on one side by copper wire covered
with rubber. and on the other side with a
telephone, storm can be predicted at least
twelve hours ahead through dead sound
heard in the receiver. According as the
storm advances the sound resembles the
beating of hailstones against the windows.
Every flash of lightning, and. of course.
every clap of thunder that accompanies the
storm. produces shock SIMILAR to that of
the stroke of stone cast between the dia-
phragm and the instrument Pioneer Press.

A SERMON.
A Sermon Recently Delivered in Our
Chapel by Chaplain J. HI. Albert.
IN TWO PARTS.-PART III.

IN TWO PARTS. II.
'.For as he thinketh in his heart. SO is he."-
Prov. xiii, Z.
We have now this fact-Thought makes
character. Hence G) avoid soft, silly, senti-
mental thoughts. Avoid books and people
that have nothing else to give you. Such
thoughts often indulged in, will ruin any one.
Gabriel himself could not live on these and
keep his place. You might as we'll expect
to build up strong body on ice cream and
candy, as to think to build strong char
acter out of weak and sentimental thoughts.
You and have had some experience in the
world. We remember that when we were
boys. people would pet us on the head and
say nice. complimentary things about us.
We thought in those lays that the whole
world was standing still, waiting our COM
ing. But when we stepped out into the
world. we soon found our mistake. Men,
with all the nice things they said, did not
want us there. They looked on us with
jealous eye. This world is not friend to
help one on in business. any more than it is
to help one on in grace. Whoever would win
anything in either field. must win it by the
strength of his own right arm. and an in
vincible soul. Only character carved out
of granite can win anywhere in the battle
of life.
But, (2) avoid bad thoughts. Never let
your mind dwell upon thoughts that are
low. impure. vile or evil. They are the
ways of death. Look out over the world;
see the sins that afflict humanity. See the
rich man grinding the face of the poor
man; and the poor man grinding the face
of other poor men; see the wrong of man
against man; brothers hand against brother;
homes broken up; the husband against the
wife, and the wife against the husband;
parents against the children, and the chill:
dren against the parents; see drunkenness
lay its disolating hand everywhere; see cor
ruption. and iniquity. and vice. and licen-
tiOusness blasting manhood. and damning
womanhood; hear the world groanng be-
meath its awful load. and crying out, ''HOw
long o Lord God Almighty. how lOng!"
See and hear. and then ask. where is the
root of all this evil, and the answer will be,
in the heart "As he thinketh in his heart,
so is he." Behind every evil act, lies an
evil thought. Had there teen no evil
thought there would have been no evil act

GENERAL SHERMAN.

FEBRUARY 14TH, 1891.
Bowed banners and the drums thick muffied beat
For him, and silent crowds along the street,
The stripes of white and crimson on his breast,
And all the trappings of a warriors rest;
For him the wall of drges, and the tread
OF the vast army following its dead
Unto the great surrender: half.mast high
For him the flags shall brave the Winter shF-
These be his hOnors: and some old eyes dim
For loves sake, more than fame's-for him, for
him
These things are his; yet not to him alone
Is this proud wealth of ordered honor shown.
Thus to their graves may 60 all men who stand
Between their country and the foemans brand:
This is the need of hardihood in fight;
The formal tribute to a hero's might:
A myriad dead have won the like award
The unknown, unnumbered servants OF the sword.
Hath he no greater honor?
Yes. although
It win for his dead clay no funeral show;
Nor none shall tell upon the market place
What gave this hero his most special grace,
That for his memory. in the years to come
Shall speak more loud than voice of gun or drum.
Great was his soul in fight But you and
Friend, if need be- can set a face to die.
This land of ours has lovers now as then,
Nor shall time coming find her poor in men.
While the strong blood of our old Saxon strain
Fires at the sound of war in pulse and vein.
But this great warrior was in Peace more great,
More noble in his fealty to the state,
More fine in service. in a subtler way
Meeting the vital duty of the day;
Patient and calm. too simply proud to strive
To keep the glory of his past alive.
So burns it still, and shall burn. Every year,
OF that high service made him but more dear,
More trusted. more revered. No lust of power
Led him to lengthen out the battle hour;
Re sought office: he would learn no art
To serve him at the polls or in the mart;
And yet he loved the people, nor did pride
Lead him from common joys and cares aside.
His kindly, homely, grizzled face looked down
On Ill the merry.making of the town
face that we shall miss: we all were proud
When the Old General smiled upon the crowd.
So lived, so died he. Has great man passed
And left life more whole unto the last!
Upon the soldiers coffin let this wreath
Tell of his greatest greatness. sword-in-sheath.
