Soon after the introduction of the tulip

widest financial schemes ever known,

A single bulb Of the Semper Augustus,

He has made it all, and life is approach
ing the end of its activity. He was
asked this question, docs wealth give

"No," he answered with promptness,
shaking his head slowly.
Happiness, after the ordinary COM
forts Of life are possessed, does not be-
long to any post, rank or condition.
Great wealth involves immense care. It
is care that kills. 1t is care that put me
in my condition. If wealth is intelli-
gently used, there may come a certain
happiness from its bestowal."
"Then why this incessant rush after
wealth."
BREAD and butter is the first essential
of life; that is, the first necessary stimulus
to labor. Then men work hard that
they may enjoy the surplus fruits Of la
Dor. With our standards of living and
the products of civilization little does
not satisfy as sufficient surplus. The
natives Of Panama, who can count but
ten, will labor hard to reach that goal
of requirements, but that accomplish
ment satisfies"

are not yet educated to enjoy anything

Chemical Eneot Of Lirhtninr.

Lightning works chemically as well
as mechanically 1t has the power Of
developing peculiar odor, which has
been variously compared to that Of phos-
phorus, nitrous gas and most frequently
burning sulphur. Wafer mentions a
storm on the Isthmus Of Darien which
diffused such sulphurous stencil
through the atmosphere that he and his
marauding companions could scarcely
draw their breath, particularly when
they plunged into the wood. The Brit
ish ship Montague was once struck by
globular lightning, which left such q
satanic SAVIOR behind 1t that the vessel
seemed nothing but sulphur, and every
man was suffocating.
About a year ago the newspapers re-
corded similar experience of the crew
of another English ship while crossing
the north Pacific from China to the
States In this case the crew had to
take TO the rigging to prevent being
choked by the sulphur fumes, Cham

It is fine plump animal, with layer
