Tennyson could take a worthless

chant can take an article worth rs

ness. A lady can purchase a rs cent

100000 in its yearly income. An
effort has begun TO raise a centenary
fund Presbyterian Observer.
The thirteenth year Of the Young
Peoples Society of Christian En-
deavor has been the most remarkable
of all in point of growth. The av-
erage increase for the last four years
has been over 100000 members per
year. and over 5000 societies. The
increase during 1898 ga has been
still larger. The facts are noted, not
for the sake Of Boosting concerning a
man or an organization, but as a
sober and inspiring fact 10 all who
are interested in the great move
ment.- New York Observer.
According to the recent statistics
there are now in Japan 643 Chris
tian missionaries, ST. churches (of
which rs are self-supporting) and
81, 400 church members, of whom
1886 were added during the last
year. There also 1898 pupils in
Christian schools, and $4,000 Sun
day school scholars. There are 2S6
native ministers, 267 theological
students and Coo unordained preach
ers and helpers. The sum contribu
ted by the native Japanese Chris
tians is given as 50, 400 yen, or $4O,-

supposed to be owned in New York
City.
At Winger, in New South Wales,
there's is burning mountain. It is
1920 feet in height, and is supposed
to be large coal seam which has in
some unaccountable way become ig-
nited, and has been burning for
many years, certainly long before
the advent of the white man in this
portion of the colony. The course
of the fire can be traced a consider
able distance by the numerous de-
pressions or chasms occasioned by
the falling in of the ground from be-
meath where the coal has been con-
sumed. Smoke is continually issu-
ing from the side of the mountain,
and in the vicinity of these openings
the surface is hot. and has a dry,
parched appearance, while sticks
thrust into these openings are read
lily ignited.

the roof, it was pinned to the ground
by the cows horns before it had
