to a heavy pressure, and large square
blocks come ont of the press, when
three circular saws tmkc hold of the

that these blocks have been tested for
paving purposes in PhiIndclphia for

well, They make smooth, noiseles4

for these paving blocks have been
secured in Pittsbnrg and New York.

Conan Doyle has been giving inter-
views to English newspapers about his
recent lecturing tour in this country.
He frankly admits that, in Il pecuniary
sense, the business is not what 1t Is
cracked up to be. Those huge bags of
good American gold which Dickens
and Thackeray waved so jauntily over
the rail to their welcoming friends on
their return from wandering on this
foreign strand, are no more to be pick
ed up at the bottom of the American
lecture-rainb0w. OF the kind words
Of the people in this country DR.. Doyle
speaks with much appreciation, but
the non-buttered parsnips seem a real
disappointment to him. Yet we should
have thought the astuteness of Sher-
lock Holmes would have prevented his
creator from chershing illusions on
this subject. even If his self-love had
not restrained him from publicly
mourning over the fact that his net re-
turns amount to less sum than he
could easily have earned in his own
study ut home. With us Mt least it is Il
matter Of common knowledge that the
rich harvests of lecturers, native or
foreign, are gone never to return. Mat
thew Arnold's second lecturing tour in
the United States was distinct fail
ure financially. He told his friends
that his object in coming back was the
apostolic one of confirming the church
es in the faith; but he found the faith
full very well content with their first
visitation. and, at any rate, not at all
anxious for confirmation at one dollar
ner head.

WISE WORDS.

One incapable of drudgery cannot
be capable of the finest work.
If you want to make a man rea
mad, get some one to pray for him.
A man isn't always fool because
he permits himself to be deceived.
To have what we want is riches
but to be able to do without il
power.
A married woman never gets ovel
the notion that she might have done
better.
There is n wonderful power in SYM
pathy to open and display the hidden
richness of mans life.
There is not on earth more merci

After man has been refused by a
girl, he goes around looking like Q

which strength manifests itself.
Let girl keep her ideals. They
don't cost her father anything as
long as she doesn't marry one oil
them.
There is no greater torture than to
be compelled to remember in suffer.
ing joys and glorious opportunities
gone forever.
Man is fully Rattslied only with
what satisfies his soul, only with char
acter and an endless chance for that
character to grow.
All the doors that lead inward to
the secret place of the most high are
doors outward of self-out of small.
ness out OF wrong.
The value of the soul above the
body, OF the character above circum.
stances, and the eternal life, these are
what men may cling to.
The ordinary man realizes by the
time he is forty years old that he is u
fool. Most of the conceit IN the world
is confined to people under forty.

You cannot grow too familiar with
the books of all ages which have in

THE PICTURE IN MY HEART

In each mans soul there lives dream, :.
Lit by n woman's eyes,
Whose glance is like the tender CLEAN
That thrills the evening skies.
II Is dream that never laints,
Though veal or woe beGalls,
But haunts the heart, and softly paints
A picture on its walls.
1t is my dream at midnight,
And in the crowded mart,
That darling face
With gentle grace
The picture In my hearth
In each mans heart there floats voice
That speaks to him alone,
The voice of her his spirits choice,
He longs to call his own.
The days may hasten like the wind,
Or lag with sullen feet,
Some day his wandering heart shall lind
The face he longs to meet
1t is my dream at midnight,
Its dear eyes ne'er depart,
Oh, where is she,
My bride to be
The picture in my heart.
Oh, some hearts range the wide worlt
through
And through to find their mate,
And some amid the darkness rue
That they have met too late.
A wistful glance betrays to each
What neither dares to sigh;
A welded bond forbds the speech
That's uttered by the eye
1t is my dream ut midnight,
1t makes my pulses start,
0 Fate, be kind,
And let me find
The picture in my heart.
