other The prayer Of faith brings to
the mind gracious influences OF the
Spirit, which lift il from state OF
dependency to a state Of exhilaration
and hope that has the most salutary
effect upon the body. In a multitude
of nervous diseases land most OF the
faith-cures are in this class) which
are produced or continued by mental
depression, weakening the will and
preventing effort to exercise the
bodily functions, the influence OF the
spirit in invlgorating the mind, would
by removing the cause of the disease
or the hinderence to it's cure, be very
likely to result in restoration to health
Such cures are as really wrought by
divine power as any miracle, and
fully vindicate the efficacy OF prayer
for the sick. In other cases the
prayer is answered by divine direc-
ton, or impression on the minds Of
patients or attendants to use certain
means which would not have been
used or thought Of, had not the
prayer been made. Here, too, the
cure is of God, and proves that "the
prayer Of faith shall save the sick"
That such cures are of frequent oc-
currence, may be admitted without
the assumption that they are miracu-
Ious, or any danger of fansticism.
Enough to know that God heals the
body by healing the mind and guild
ing men to the use of proper reme-
dies in answer TO prayer This is all
we need to know to strengthed our
faith and encourage prayer-C. ii.

argument, as witness Editor Horace
Whites attack on Coins Facts" in
the Evening Post last Tuesday:
Among the earliest statements in
the now notorious treatlce, "Coin's
Financial School," is the following:
cat the CHRISTIAN Era the metallic
money in the Roman Empire amount
ed to 81, 8OO,OOO,OOO. BY the end of
the fifteenth century it had shrunk to
$20O,OOO,OOO. What is Senator jones'
authority for these figures? He
quotes in the same speech, and scores
of speakers have quoted it before and
after him, a passage from the second
part Of "Alison's History of Europe"
Vol. l, page 81, which sets forth q
general decline IN The position O IMAM
from, the time of the Christian Era,
o,ving to q shrinking IN the amount
of the precious metals. Sir Archi-
bald, in a sentence which Senator
Jones did not quote, says: "The
treasure which formed the sole circu-
lating medium of the Empire, which
IN the time of Augustus had been
$3.50, 100000, had sunk in that of
Justinisn to no more than f80,0O0,-
0OO." These numbers Alison declares
are based ON authentic materials, set
forth in an essay on the "FaU OF
Rome," to which he refers his read
ers None of the silverites
who have repeated this paragraph on
the metals to tediousness, would ever
dream of quoting on any other sub
lects that fine old Crusted Tory, who,
for all he knew of the science of gov
eminent and the progress OF mankind
might have sat in Lord North's cabi-
net. Il What earthly means
had he, or Senator Jones, or "Coin,'
for determining the amount of golC
and silver coin in the time of Angus
tus or Justinian or Columbus? 4
1t Is almost impossible to make
any accurate numerical estimates fol
those days, even the latest; and fol-
the earliest absolutely 80. y
No doubt, both Augustus and Justin

of taxable property in their respective
empires. * * What statistic

enson's books-and perhaps his most
popular ones-we know something. The
adventurous story, Treasurer Island"
was written at the suggestion of small
boy, protege of the authors, who was
continually asking why Mr.. Stevenson
did not write something interesting, like
Robinson Crusoe" Treasure Island"
was accordingly written, The chief in
cident in 1.-THE Strange Case of DIR. Jekyll

Stevenson thirteen years ago. He saw
Hyde dash into mysterious recess, saw
him take the drug, and wac awakened
by the terror of what followed. The
dream was too vivid to be soon forgotten,
but the germ Of the story lay dormant
for ten years, when it was elaborated
into the Strange Case of DIR. Jekyll

recognized as masterpiece in fiction.

the latter 219 miles. 1t may have been
possible that Mount Elias was only part
of the mass he saw, and Mount Logan,
20 miles to the north by east from Mount
Elias and 1882 feet elevation, was the
summit of the visible mass. In this case
the distance was 204 miles.
1t may be mentioned that the consen-
sus of opinion of men who have been
through Alaska and have seen Mount
Wrangell is that the highest mountain
mass is just under G. degrees latitude
and between lat and 148 degrees longi-
tude, or 166 miles west northwest from
Wrangell. This would put the unnamed

tending through nearly 600 miles.-San

Cromwell Fond of Sport.

Cromwell, like his brethren in arms. is
often described as morose and gloomy
fanatic. We hear of him going through
days of sorrow because he had partaken
in some innocent enjoyment. He always
had great fear of the Evil One. The
real Cromwell however, was by no means
afraid to enjoy himself or averse to
amusements. OLIVER" as one of lis
officers observes, "loved an innocent jest
and especially practical jest" Under
the cuirass of the General or the royal
robe of the Protector. he was always an
athletic country gentleman of sporting
tastes. His Royalist biographere make
his early taste for athletics one of their
charges against him. He learned little
at Cambridge, says "Carrion" Heath,
"and was more famous for his exercises
in the fields than in the schools. being
one Of the chief matchmakers and play
ers of football, cudgels or any other
boisterous sport or game" He was soon
cloyed with studies" tdds Bates, ode
lighting more in horses and in pastimes
abroad in the fields"
This much we may safely believe, but
Heath is probably inventing when he in
forms ls that after Mr.. Cromwell re.
turned to his home at Huntington, "his
chief weapon in which he delighted, and
at which he fought several times with
thinkers, peddlers. and the like, was a
quarter-staff. at which he was so skillful
that seldom did any overmatch him.

SEEING LONG DISTANCES.

The recent claim of the United States
signal service to have transmitted hello
graph signals over a distance of 1873
miles, and of the United States coast
survey and geodetic survey to have beat
en- that many years since between Mount
Helna and Mount Shasta, over 1872 miles.
has started mountain climbers to make
all sorts of guesses and assertions about
the distances they ought to see and the
distances they do see. 1t would appear
that one of the enthusiastic climbers of
Mount Hood, in Oregon, made the state.
ment that from the summit he saw the
southwark. OF course he was doubted.
but principally because the curvature Of
the earth would prevent the intervisi-
bility of the peaks. and so an appeal was
made to a young officer of the United
States engineering corps, who computed
the distance at which these peaks would
be intervisible. Mount Hood is given as
IL, 1853 feet above the sea level and Mount
Shasta as IA 440. and the distance on the
latest charts is 27S15 miles. By his com.
pu' alton the total visible distance" was
277 miles. which gave lone mile to spare"
over his assumed distance of 276 miles,
upon which the Oregonian and some of
the New York papers have assumed the
intervisibility of the peaks, and that the
mountain climber was right in his de.
claration of seeing Mount Shasta.
That is all very pretty, Professor Da
wilson says, if the ocean interviewed be-
tween the two peaks, when the line of
intervisibility would be tangent to the
surface Of the sea at point nearer to
Mount Hood, but unfortunately the sur
face between these two peaks is the
backbone of the Cascade range of noun
tains and the intervisibility is an abso-
Lutte physical impossibility. We must
turn to Alaska if we expect to obtain
the longest lines Of intervisibility. be-
cause the great mountain peaks like
Elias and Logan of the st. Elias range
Immediately dominate a curving coast
line The greatest authenticated dis
tance at which the great master peaks
have been visible from sea was by Cap
tain H. E. Nichols of the United States
navy when commanding the United
States gunboat Plnta. He was close up
on Middleton island, off the approaches
to Prince William sound, in a we'll deter
mined position, when he had a view of
Mount Elias to the east, northeast and
Mount Wrangell to the northward. The
former was distant 1877 statute miles and

There can be no better sheep for
foundation flock than the common ewes,
with portion of Me-ino blood, for the
average farmer. Such sheep are blocky,
have good constitutions, are very healthy
are very fully adapted to this country
and climate, and may be kept in much
larger flocks than most imported stock.
The growing of early lambs is a nice
business when one is properly fitted up
for it. 1t requires warm housing and
knowledge of the finer phases of feeding.
The aim is at earliness and good weight.

feed Rush them to market, for little

Ohio and Indiana farmers who are

beauty, strength or spirit. A good stall
lion is great assurance that your care
and trouble will be repaid.
Feeding hogs in the trough affords the
opportunity of eating rapidly, and much
will be swallowed without mastication
when the smaller grains are fed Better
have tight floor upon which to scatter
it, for they will then be compelled to eat
more slowly and masticate more thor

them to good. well matured boar, Wig

breeding, as one good boar will improve

number of pigs this would affect during

of pure bred boar of individual merit

be used for two or three years without

FULL FORTY YEARS AGO.
BY j. NJ. FOWLER.

Full forty years ago, ma, when you and were
young,
Our hands we're Joined in wedlock, the bridal
hymn was sung,
But forty years bring changes-howers bloom
and fade away;
Locks filed with youthful lustre are faced now,
and grey.
At times we may have loitered, and whiled away
an hour;
AT other times we've labored with all our might
and power;
But time is always busy-his ugly old plough
share
Has run across our faces, and left deep burrows
there.
Yes, yes, we're growing older; our limbs are
clumsy now;
The space has grown much broader 'twixt hair
and arching brow;
Our visions growing DINNER as flows life's
ebbng sand.
As we near the mystic river the dreamy border
land.
Wen soon be in the valley, where the rush and
willow grows,
Where melancholy meanings, each fitful breeze
that blows.
Brings to our listening spirits thoughts of that
better cline
Beyond the mystic river beyond the shores of
time,
All things in earth grow older-boys soon grow
into men,
And girls grow into womanhood, we know not
how Ut when;
Times scytfe Git seems) grows sharper and
soon must lay us low;
AS the rolling years move onward. shall our
hearts grow older too?
Let fond ambitions perish, the lamp If hope
burn low,
The friends we love and cherish leave us to want
and woe;
Letrosy cheeks grow saow, let lustrous locks
grow grey,
But let our hearts. no, never! from each other
grow away.
