Cabin John Land-Mr Hunton on
Thursday afternoon of last week called up
from the Senate calendar Senate bill 2116, au-
thorizing the sale of title of the United States
to tract of land in Montgomery county,
Md :, to VIM. II. and George Bobinger. This
bill was reported favorably from the District
Committee. 1t provides for the sale of the
small tract of land which has for many years
been used by the propretors Of the hotel at
Cabin John in the belief that they owned it.
From survey recently made 1t has been as.
certained that this tract is In reality portion
OF the land acquired by the government for
the Washington aqueduct. The owners OF
the hotel have improved the tract, and the
bill merely authorizes its sale to them If In
the opinion of the Secretary of War the said
sale will in no wise be detrimental to the
Washington aqueduct, Col. Elliot, in charge
of the aqueduct, said in report on the bill I:
81 do not suppose that any one now living
knows how the encroachment happened to
be made, but am satisfied it was done in
ignorance of the boundary line of the United
States land and without any wrong INTENT
The bill was passed without any objec ton.

which it should work in Maryland. Three
millions of dollars are annually spent in
this State for commercial fertilizers, and so
it behooves US to look after the laws for
their inspection and sale; also to find ways
of providing plant food without this great
drain on our resources, and the steps that
are being taken in the science of agricul-
ture. A very interesting discussion fol.

BROOKLYN, Feb. SIN the Brooklyn

chose for the subject Of his sermon The
Human Face and held his great audience
fascinated with the charm Of his cloquence
as he disCoursed on subject Of universal
interest. The text was Ecclesastes viii, !,
"A mans wisdom maketh his face to shine,
and the bodness of his face shall be chang
ed" or, as it may be rendered, "the sour
ness of his face shall be sweeteued.'
Thus little change in our English trans
lation brings out the better meaning Of the
text, which sets forth thyt the character of
The lace Is decided by the character Of the
FOUL. The man features OF our cOuutcnance
were decided by the Almighty, and we can
not change them, bat under God we decide
whether we shall have couutenances be-
nlguant or baleluI, sour or sweet, wrathtul
or genial. benevolent or mean, honest or
scoundrelly, lmpudent or modest, coura-
geous or coWardly, frank or sneaking
In all the works of God there is nothing
more wonderful than the human counte-
nance. Though the longest face Is less than
l2 inches from the hair line of the forehead
to the bottom OF the chin and the broadest
face IS less than eight inches from cheek

THE MOTHERS FACE.


"Now, says some one, IL know very good
people who have no such religion in their
faces" My friend, the reason probably is
that they were not converted until late in
life Worldliness and sin had been at work
with their chisels on that face for 80 or 40
years, and Grace, the divine sculptures, has
been busy with her chisel only five or ten
years. Do not be surpI Used that Phidias
and Greenough, with their fine chises can
not in short while remove all the marks
of the stone mason's crowbar which has
been busy there for long while | say to
all the young, if you would have sympa-
thetic face, hopeful face, courageous face
cheerful face, kind face, at the earliest pos
hible moment, by the grace of God, have
planted in your soul sympathy and hope
and courage and good cheer and kindness.
No man ever INDUCED gracious feeling
or was moved by "A righteous indignation,
or WAS stirred by Il benevolent impulse, but
its effect WAS more or less indicated in the
countenance, while David noticed the physi-
ognomic effect of bad disposition when he
said, "a wicked man hardeneth his face, >"
and jeremiah must have noticed it when
he said of the cruel, They have made their
faces harder than rock"
Oh, the power Of the human facet war;
rant that you have known faces so mag
netic and impressive that though they van
ished long ago they still hold you with a
