REST TOMORROW.

SaIely through another week." And
 Oh what a week! Who would have
 thought, or did think, when the Chris
 tian Workers invaded New Haven with all their good hearts, their good faces and their good clothes, that there would
 be such work as there has been here
 this week? Who would have thought
 that New Haven would be brought into comparison as a place of sin with Chi cago and hell? Who would have
 thought that the educational advan-
 tages of hell could possibly be men,
 tioned in the same day with those of
 Yale? Who would have thought that
 anybody in New Haven would say any
 thing that would displease or horrify
 anybody else and stick to it for more than a day? Who would have thought that any of the young men who are
 being moulded and Christianized by
 Yale would steal the signs of the Chris
 tian Workers as a slight token of es- 
 teem and an illustration of true good
 ness and excellent education? Who would have thought that the Register would call this stealing "collegiate con- fiscation" and thus do for theft what it did for discreet law-breaking in Cheshire? Who would have thought that two of the young gentlemen who are going to Heaven via Yale would choose last evening as fitting time to be drunk and arrested in when they could have been at a Friday evening prayer meeting showing that Yale has been atrociously slandered? And who would have thought that a minister of
 the gospel would try to enliven a sol
 emn banquet in New Haven with a story that could not properly be told at any of the meetings of the Christian Workers?
 We'll, all these things that nobody would have thought likely to happen have happened, and New Haven is all torn up, Everybody is talking, just as
 everybody used to talk when New Ha-
 ven was only village round the Green and not place that would remind any body of Chicago or hell, In the village
 days this talk would have been called
 gossip. Nowadays it is called public
 opinion. And it gives us pleasure to notice in the wagging of tongues and heads that makes public opinion a con sensus. It is not often that there is a consensus of opinion in New Haven but there is one this time. The con- sensus is that New Haven is all right and that Yale is all right and that any,
 body who says nay is not worthy to be
 a member of our set.
 | The consensus being prominent and general there is no more to be said. It
 will therefore be a good plan not to say more. Tomorrow is a day of rest.
 Those who are tired will appreciate it.

The Journal of Hygiene says that a doctor has a new idea concerning food for consumptives. His treatment con- sists of the inhaling the fumes of vine gar and the eating of peanuts. He gives his patients as many peanuts as they can eat without injuring their digestive organs. Two young ladies who had been the rounds of the doctors and taken cod-liver oil and tonics till they were nearly dead were put on his Treatment and recovered.

A good story is told by the Youths Companion of the way in which a New England senator was once aroused to make a stirring speech. At the outset of his political career he had been known as a remarkably clever 'orator of the stump" and later on, in the low er house of the legislature, he made brilliant name for himself But when he became a senator he ceased talking, much to the regret of his friends and admirers. Finally the liquor law came up for discussion, and the wife of a friend of the senator, who was much interested in it's passage, was greatly disappointed to see that the brilliant man had no apparent intention of join ing in the discussion. She sat down and wrote few words on a sheet of paper, which she inclosed in an enveI- ope and sent by messenger to the senator. Do speak! Even Balaam's $ -ass spoke onceg' This brought the sen-

It is hard to beat the gamblers. The proprietors of the Roby race track at Hammond, Indiana, which is located just over the line from Illinois, and operated for the benefit of Chicago gamblers, have found means. of evad- ing the state law, which aimed at kill ing continuous racing there, and an- nounce that next year they will run races from April to November 1. This was done by building three tracks, which were incorporated under differ ent companies, but are in reality operat- ed in the same interests and running the races in turn on each, the law for bidding the races be run on the same track for more than forty-five days In a year. If necessary a, fourth track will be built next season

In speaking of Dr. Glaser's recent dis covery of ancient inscriptions in Arabia, Professor Hommel, of Munich, says: ''It is my conviction that Arabia itself will furnish us the direct proofs that the modern destructive criticism of the pentateuch is absolutely erroneous. The age of the Minean inscription runs parallel with that of the so-called code of the priests, If the former are as old as Chaser believes them to be, and the Arabian civilization, as I have proved in my first article, already existed at the time of Abraham, then the laws of the priests of Israel are also very an- cient. The best proofs of the historical accuracy of the Old Testament tradi- lions come more and more from without, from the inscriptions of the surround ing nations"

Cultivating strawberries under glass of various colors, Professor Zachare- wiez, of Vaucluse, France, has obtained the following results: Ordinary clear glass gave the best and earliest fruit. Orange glass increased the vegetation. but 1t injured the quality, size and ear- Illness of the fruit. Violet glass in- creased the yield at the expense of the quality. Red, blue and green glass was hurtful to all kinds of vegetation.

Eggs are plenty. According to R. A. Foster of Winona, Minnesota, the man who cornered the egg market in Chicago last winter, the market Is glutted with eggs. According to his information, in the cold-storage warehouses through out the country, the surplus over last year being about 100000 cases, or 36,OOO.- now is 141a cents a dozen, which is said to be unprof1table; but, unless there is long continued cold weather during this month and December, Mir Foster doesn't see much money in the egg mar ket.
