The question of the "great sea ser
pent" has of late come before us with an
episcopal sanction; but whatever may
be the explanation of the various appear
ances which have given a certain cur
rency to belief in the existence of an
unknown marine monster of some kind,
that small sea serpents exist is most GER
tain. They are all marine, and with the
exception of one or two species never quit
the water. AS might be expected under
such circumstances they bring forth
their young alive, and these can swim as
soon as they are born.
Mr.. Boulenger tells us that their home
is essentially the coasts of the Indian
ocean and the tropical parts of the west
ern Pacific, from the Persian gulf to
New Guinea and North Australia. One
species, however, ranges from west and
south Africa to the western coast OF
tropical America and extends northward
to Japan and southwark to New Zea'

Cultivation of the Affections.

1t is a common remark in extenuation
of the inconvenience of not having very
much money that people of ordinary for
tune can eat as much as millionaires;
and if we find that we can love as easily
and as extensively on small incomes rs
on greater ones, we may safely consider
that we have the better of the rich again.
Perhaps we can; wealth offers SO many
diversions that sometimes the pleasure
there is in loving is overlooked.
The impression certainly exists that
great riches have tendency to clog the
affections; and great inequalities of for
tune are barrier between man and man,
not insurmountable but appreciate.
Love is personal, and very great posses
sions almost inevitably throw personal
qualities into shadow. We love men for
what they are, not what they represent,
We cultivate the muscles because it is
fun to use them, and because it brings
us the happiness that comes of health.
For like reasons we make business OF
the cultivation of our minds. How sim
pie it is of us to neglect to the extent
that most of us do the systematic cult
walton of our hearts.

The Shirt of Success.

Madame Durand, better known as Henri
Greville in one of her books gives fine
example of a young man who felt within
him the fire that is gift of the gods, -
and who was willing to sacrifice every
thing for the sake of his career. He is a
musician, and his father wishes to make a
priest of him. In speaking of it to his
brother the young artist says; Il would
rather live miserable for ten years, hardly
earning my bread, wearing threadbare
clothes, and not daring to go to any ones
house because shall be too poor. had
rather, if need be, suffer the pangs OF hun
ger and die on my violin than be priest
and renounce music" This is the spirit
we must have in order to succeed.
To know what one can do, what one viii
do, is the first step upward. Then it re
mains to do it not in half earnest, slip
shod sort of way, but with all the strength
and energy and power of which persol
is capable.-Housewife.

A St. Petersburg journal states that a
Russian civil engineer, NJ. de Nicaloff, has
succeeded in producing fuel from peat
greatly resembling anthracite coal. The
inventor has obtained patent for his proc
ess, which is said to be accomplished by
the aid of certain chemicals, and lately an
imperial commission has been engaged IN
experimenting with the fuel. the result
having been very favorable. The peat was
found to give little less heat than ordi
nary coal, but more than fir or birch wood
which is largely used on railways and
steamers and in factories in Russia. II
other respects, however, the peat is supe
rior to coal, being cheaper, containing but
small percentage of sulphur and being
much smaller in bulk. The artificial fue
throws off no dirt and e'nits no smell
while burning with clear white flame.

The Bible in Swiss Schools.

In the classes of city and town schools in
Switzerland the boys and girls are usually
separated. There is no study room. the
studying being all done at home. 1t is
noticeable that the school opens without
Bible reading or prayer, but later in the
morning one of the town pastors will enter
the rooms of the higher classes and give a
half hours instruction, mostly concerning
the characters of the New Testament. The
scholars will be asked about the lives OF
Peter and Paul and the scenes of the Holy
Land. the interest of the pupil depending
wholly on the ability of the teacher to en-
fertain him. The talk of the half hour
seems to be devoted more to Bible biograr
pby than to religious training. The preach
ers. however, have an uphill row of it, fol
hundreds of the Swiss teachers are infidels

An Electric Ghost.

A story which, whether true or not. is at
all events "well found" is told in New
York paper A contractor, under the stress
of financial tightness, sold house very
much under its value. Puzzling his wits
to recover his property, he hit on the idea
of working on the superstitious fears OF
the new owner Every night the purchaser
heard wrappings and other strange noises,
but the tenants were not disturbed. The
noises had at last such an effect on the
nerves of the frantic owner that be was in
the act of dashing himself from the roof
to the ground in fit of insanity when
some of the neighbors came on the scene
and prevented him.
An examination of the building resulted
in the finding of an electrical knocker
which had been hung over the roof anc
made available for operation on any de
sired point. This was the DOGGY which
had driven the new owner out of his wits
| and the contractor, on being confronted
with the facts, confessed that he hat
adopted this method of frightening hin
into giving up the property.
