Faith is the great incentive to human
action. We learn in holy writ that by
and through the exercise of faith noun
tains may be removed, or any other
physical impossibility accomplished.
This last, of course, includes rain making
by the Melbourne process, and from the
action of the Stevens county corporation
that has been organized and chartered
under the laws of the state it is fair to
presume that the said corporators think
they have the requisite amount and de-
gree of faith, at least in Melbourne's
ability to supply natures deficiency in
moisture. We wish that their expecta-
tions may be realized, but confess that
our faith is about like the old lady's who
wanted the hill removed from in front of
her house.

Walter Besant, in the November num-

the readers of that periodical with a
wonderfully entertaining account of
The London of Good Queen Bess"-the
London of Shakespeare, of Raleigh, and
of Bacon-with descriptions of English
life and manners at the time of the
Armada, and of England's first period
of commercial prosperity. The glimpses
which Mr.. BeSant gives of social life in
London at this period-of the houses, the
merchants, the schools, the amusements,
and, above all, of the wonderful intel
lectual awakening of the time-are in
teresting in the extreme. The article
will be illustrated from drawings after
photographs taken in London, depicting
variety of scenes and architectural re-
mains, The memory of which is connec-
ted with the times of good Queen Bess.

Much as The I,.lian government has

Much as the Italian government has
been criticised in this country for its
course In the New Orleans malta affair,
1t is not half so thin-skinned and touchy
as the Chilians have shown themselves
to be. The first mentioned incident, if
not settled to the entire satisfaction of
the government at Rome, Is not allowed
to stand in the way of reciprocal trade
relations with this country in which the
best interests of the others's subjects are
involved. On the other hand the Chill
ians seem to still harbor i'll will towards
us on account of the Itata incident, the
final outcome of which was substan-
tial success to them. II is but natural
that the present Chilian regime should
feel elated at the success that attended
their efforts in behalf of popular rights
and popular government, but that does
not justify them in perpetrating out
RACES upon citizens or soldiers or Off
cials of thi government, and they will
be held TO account for every such act.

How to Make a VIII.

A duty which every man owes to
his family is the making of will.
An instrument of this kind Can be
drawn by any intelligent person, and
will be admitted to probate in all
courts, provided the document is in
writing, and signed at the end by the
testator, or some person in his pres
ence and by his direction, in the
presence of two witnesses at least,
who must subscribe and attest the
will in his presence. The signature
must be so placed at, after, follow
ing, under or beside or opposite the
end of the will that it shall be appar-
ent that the testator intended to give
effect by the signature to the writing
signed as his will A proviso of this
kind will save annoyance and ex
pense, and prevent litigation.

Three methods by which the speed
may be guessed with remarkable &C
curacy, are as follows:
I. Watch for the passage of the
train by the large white mile posts
with black figures upon them, and
divide 5000 by the time in seconds
between posts: the result is the
speed in miles per hour.
2. Listen attentively until the ear
distinguishes the click, click, click of
the wheel as IL passes a rail joint.
The number of clicks upon one side
of the car in twenty seconds is the
speed in miles per hour, where the
rails are thirty feet in length, and
this is the case generally.
5. Count the number Of telegraph
poles passed in two minutes, if there
are four or five wires to a pole, anC
in two minutes and twenty seconds
if there are only one or two lines pei
pole, the number of poles passed i!
the number of miles per hour a
which the train is travelling.

The ingredients Used in the Manu-.
facture Of Butterine.

This substitute for butter is made
from tallow or lard as the chief com
ponent, with cocoanut, olive and
palm oils to give it the necessary
flavor and consistency; salt and a
little annatto for coloring. If this
recipe were always followed and the
compound called by its right name,
it would not be Objectionable; but
some manufacturers do not hesitate
to add other ingredients that are un-
wholesome and injurious, and palm
the stuff off for butter.

The Settling Up is Certain.
BY ERNEST M,aaFFEY

You may take the world as it comes and goes
And you will be sure to find
That fate will square the account she owes.
Whoever comes out behind
And all things bad that man has done,
By whatsoever induced.
Return at last 70 him one by one,
As the chickens come home TO rocst.
You may scrape, and toll, and pinch, and save,
While your boarded wealth expands.
Till the cold. dark 81 adow Of the grave
Is nearing your life's last sands;
You will have your balances struck some night,
And you II find your hoard reduced
You'll view your life in another light,
When the chickens cone home TO roost.
You can stint your soul and staIve your heart
With the husks of barren creed.
But Christ will know if you play part,
Will know in your hour Of need;
And then, as you wait for death to come,
What hope can there be deduced
From creed alone? You will lie there dumb,
While your chickens come home to roost.
Sow as you will, there's time to reap,
For the good and the bad as well;
And conscience, whether we wake or sleep,
Is either heaven or hell;
Ard every wrong will find its place,
And every passion locsed
Drifts back and meets you face to face,
When the chickens come home TO roost-
