PLUCK OF A HAWK.

His Vigorous Fight with Two Hunters In
the s1siae Woods
An Auburn business man and o friend
were out hunting the other day, says
the Lewiston Journal A big hawk
flew over their heads and they blazed
away ut him. The shot broke the
birds wing and he came to the ground,
alighting on his back. He was unable
TO turn over and get upon his feet, but
was lively just the same, as the Auburn
hunters found before they succeeded in
killing him.
The business man placed the ramrod
OF his gun in the hawks big, grasping
claws, all Of which straightway closed,
like the jaws OF an enraged mud turtle
swapping at q stick In tho hands of a
mischievous boy. With the claws thus
taken care Of the business mans friend
proceeded to wiring the birds neck. In
the earlier stages Of the operation the
harder the friend worked the tighter
would the hawk grasp the iron ramrod
and flap its wings.
All this was fun for the hunters, who,
after a long struggle, declared them
selves winners Of the scrap. They had
hardly 80 proclaimed when the bird got
his wind, and leaving the ramrod, w.
ciously attacked his prosecutors.
As fate would have it, the business
mans friend, being nearest, was the
first to catch It. The hawk lighted on
his wrist and the way he stuck there
was caution. One claw sunk deep in
to the hunters wrist and he called long
and loud for mercy.
The business man, seeing something
must be done at the risk Of his life,
finally went to his friends rescue. He
got good hold on the sunlsen claw,
braced his feet against q rock, and was
successful in pulling 1t out. As the
claw came out the hawk fell back and
in moment was still in death. They
found that the birds wings measured
three feet and ten inches from tip to
tin.

The Last Straw.

1t was good-natured crowd that was
in the same car with the newly married
couple, says the New York Press, and
1t took little notice of their cuddlings
and caressings. Most of them were ap-
parently married people who had been
there themselves, and were therefore
charitably inclined The turtle doves,
however, became SO interested in their
billing and cooing that they quite forgot
the presence of others, and in a short
time climax was reached which led
them to sit with foot of space between
them until their destination was
reached. Lightly leaning her head
upon his shoulder and looking up at him
out OF the depths OF pair OF big blue
eyes she asked: "Who's sweet?" A
hush fell upon the car as she listened
for his answer. Bending down until his
mustache almost touched her brow. he
said: "Bofe of u.s." Then the crowd
laughed, and the car shook SO ii almost
Left the rails.

AN ovEREsTIMATED METAL.
Aluminium Il Now Said to 10 Undt for
Many Uses.

Aluminium IL Now Said to 10 Undt for
Many Uses.
Two German scientists who have been
making extended experiments for the
purpose of ascertaining the extent to
which aluminium can be used in the
manufacture OF vessels to contain eat
ables have reached some conclusions
that rather upset the predictions of
universal adaptability of this metal,
says the Chicago journal.
These scientists assert that aluminium
should never be used for articles which
are required to come in contact with
boiling water, nor should cans of this
metal be used for the packing of fruits,
preserves, etc. Experiments showed
that large number of organic acids
which are present in brine, fruit, Juices,
etc., have dissolvent effect upon
aluminium.
According to these authorities the
light TASKS Of aluminium which have
been made fer army use are not adapted
for this purpose, as citric and tartaric
acid, even in as small proportions as
one per cent, exercise an injurious ef-
feet upon the metal. Red Bordeaux
and Moselle wine, and even tea and cof-
fee, have also a tendency to dissolve
and absorb aluminium, probably on ac-
count OF the tannin contained in them.

LIZZIE s. TURNEY'S CASE.

I wish to commend the gentle words of this suffering woman to other advocates of the faith cure theory, some of whom are not so patient and tolerant of tine con- victions of others as their superior claims would bespeak for them.
 Evidently her pain and sorrows have not been in vain; and it may prove that the Lord has more abundantly blessed her in her tribulations, than He could have done by miraculous and perfect cure of her body; and made her more useful in His spiritual kingdom by prov ing that His grace is sufficient for her, even with the thorn retained in the flesh.
 Are there not many greater works of faith than the healing of bodies? I would not by any word or deed imply any doubt of the all prevailing power of the effect aul fervent prayer of faith.
 I have spoken only of the quackery and abuse of it. What the word of God teaches is one thing; what we may claim it means may be quite another thing.
 What does the case of this good woman prove. HdfC nO LII hCi olhSCllby no reason to doubt her partial restoration. But she eonfesses that she was not "healed, but only relieved in part. This fact proves too much for the faith cure theory. To heal is to make whole and sound.
 The very idea of .sdivine healing'' is that of direct, instantaneous, miraculous cure in answer to prayer alone, without the use of other means, or else the bot tom is knocked out of the theory at once.
 The assumption is that the power of miracles is still in the church, and that through unbelief and neglect Christians do not use it as they should.
 But is there any proof of a real miracle since the days of the apostles? Wonder ful works wrought in men by divine grace in accord with we'll known laws of our nature there may have been, and grea ter works than could have been done by ar bitrary displays of almighty power.
 Indeed what need have we of such ex- traordinary manifestations when we have that which is better? God could without doubt cure all the sin and disease in the world in an instant. But that would not, evidently, accord with His infinite plans for the moral and spiritual education and perfection of mankind.
 The Captain of our Salvation was ssmade perfect through suffering and sin and disease and pain and sorrow have their place in the spiritual evolution of human souls.
 The delusion of the faith cure is based on the common fallacy in reasoning, that,

 Whereas, it has pleased our Heavenly Father to remove from our midst by death our late brother, George o. Hurl- burt,
 Resolved, that by his death this court has lost worthy member and his friends true and faithful companion.
 Resolved, that while accepting with a true Christian spirit this command of AL mighty God, we sincerely mourn the loss of our late brothers companfonship, whose call to his spiritual home deprives this court and society of an exemplary young man.
 Resolved, that this court extend to his bereaved family it's most sincere sym pathy in this, their time of sorrow and commend them to the Heavenly Father who doeth all things we'll and who will console them in their sorrow.
 Resolved, that these resolutions be placed on the minutes of this meeting and printed in THE NEwTOwN BEE and and Forester's Journal

this preceded that, and therefore this caused that.
 ~I was physical wreck, earthly phys | icians gave me up, I called upon the Lord, was helped; therefore the prayer of faith alone, or in other words by a miraculous touch, healed me- Is there anything in the case which can be proof to any one who believes in the Christian religion as being in har- mony with the science of the universes
 Who can be sure that her partial cure was not due to the ''earthly physicians, after all?
 A course of treatment may not have it's full effect until long after. Who can | say that it was not the result of prayer working with the doctors? How shall we be able to tell certainly if it was not the power of her own mind overcoming the cause of her disease: Fervent prayer working with natural laws? We know the power of mind over the body. We know that people having confidence in the physician are cured by l oreao plils ana Dy colored water. We know that diseases run their course and patients recover without doctors or med icine, or even the prayers of faith. Even cancers and tumors do not al- ways kill and may cease to grow or trouble. God works by laws even in matters of faith. All law is from the bosom of God and proceeds from His love. The law of gravitation is Gods law as much as the law of sanctification.
 The Lord can bless pill as we'll as a prayer and the gift of the good physi- clan may be as much a divine gift as that of the faithful priest.-[O. o. Wright.
