 Zion's Herald has symposium by divines and eminent laymen upon What part the Minister of the Gospel shall take in the Present Unusual Presidential Campaign" which is Of extraordinary interest and from which we make the following brief extracts:
 Bishop c. D. Foss, Methodist: "Ev- cry minister can pray daily, in his clos ct and at the family altar and ire quently in the pulpit, to Him who sit teth on the floods and 'sitteth King forever that He, in His gracious prov idence and by the gift of His Spirit. may calm the passions of men, may bring to naught the arts of dema- gogues. may raise wise and good men to places of power, may guide and con- trol the tides of public opinion in all parts of the land, and may bring such results of the present great political excitement as shall promote the moral and material welfare of the country.
 President Charles w. Eliot, Harvard university: It seems to me that in the discussions accompanying the forth coming presidential election the part of a minister should be to insist on the general principles that national honor and honesty are the same as personal honor and honesty, that all business depends ultimately on the confidence which each man has in many other men, that the way to inspire confidence for the future is to keep faithfully agreements made in the past. and that national like personal, well-being. is promoted by cultivation of mutual re- spect and good feeling and not by the infiaming of prejudiees and hatreds.

the association that, in their judgment, licensing engineers would tend to pro- mote public safety, and would cause engineers to study and to pay more at tention to the niceties of their business.
 When Ii Hung Chang was In Wash ington he was interested in the de- struction of the old bank bills. The destruction takes place in a room in the United States treasury building There is a small table in the center of the room, on which Is the tumble of torn and soiled bills. Through two holes in the floor may be seen the cy- finders about the size of locomotive boilers, into which the bills are sent through large funnel, the treasury officials prodding down the mass when it becomes clogged. When the last slip of paper has been crowded into a cy- finder mixture of lime and soda is poured over the entre mass, a cover is clapped over the apparatus, each mem Der of the committee of destruction as sisting to make sure the fastenings, Steam Is then turned on and the cylin- der set in motion. When the bills have become thoroughly macerated the pulp is drawn off and taken to paper ma- chine, where it is made into sheets of paper and afterwards sold. Some one suggested using some of the pulp to make little fancy images, and the idea was adopted, so that the daintiest lit- tie figures imaginable made from the historical substance may be bought in Washington.

< Iowa has a paternal board of health, which advises the people as to their diet and clothing. In bulletin about to be issued it tells them to don warm CT f1annels and heavier outer garments now, as the weather in September and October, with it's warm noon days and its cool mornings and evenings, is par ticulary trying and is productive of severe colds. rheumatism, pneumonia and bowel complaints. In the matter of diet the health officers advise the people to eat all the grapes they wish and not to be frightened by the buga- boo of appendicitis Straining the seeds or discarding the pulp, after ab- sorbing the juice, is pronounced an in- suit to the grape and the rankest in- gratitude to Him who made them so easy of culture, so delicious and pala- table, and 50 nutritious and healthful."

The "safety," says a wheelnan in the Philadelphia Record, "owes it's origin to the fact that certain little Englishman had an abnormally short pair of legs and a vaulting ambition to ride the whirling wheel. J. H. Law son, of Coventry, England, is man of dirninutive proportions, with the neither limbs of four-year About twen- ty years ago, when the murderous high-wheeled ordinary was in vogue as the only known form of the bicycle, MT. Lawson became filled with a con- suming desire to risk his neck on that perilous machine along with the rest. His short legs barred him out, so he set his wits to work, had an ordinary cut down to suit his own peculiar build, and out of the result was evolved the chain-driven safety, practically the same in principle and construction as the wheels now in use"
