A retail hardware dealer in England
says that 80 per cent of the files he sells
come not from Sheffield, but from Amer
lea, and he explains the anomaly in The
Ironmonger. The American manufac-
turers, it seems, keep large stocks in
London and fill orders with great
promptness. The American price lists
give exact information regarding sizes
and grades and promise delivery in
three days from London. A Sheffield
price list requires prolonged study to
comprehend it, and when an order is
rent to Sheffield it may not be filed for
four weeks, Or even eight weeks. This
hardness in filling orders has been a
matter Of weekly experience for 20 years.

church for slowness of movement. Is
science any quicker? Did it not take
science 1868 years to find out SO simple
q thing as the circulation OF the human
blood? With the earth and the sky full
of electricity, science took $500 years
before it even guessed that there was
any practical use that might be made OF
this subtle and mighty element. When
good men take possession OF all these
scientific forces and all these agencies
of invention, I do not know that the re-
demption of the world will be more
than the work of half a day. Do we not
read the qneen's speech at the prorogu-
ing of parliament the day before in
London? If that be SO, is it anything
marvellous to believe that in "a hours
a divine communication can reach the
whole earth? Suppose Christ should de-
scend on the nations-many expect that
Christ will come among the nations
personally. Suppose that tomorrow
morning the Son of God from a hover
ing cloud should descend upon these
cities. Would not that fact be known all
the world over in "a hours? Suppose he
should present his gospel in a few
words, saying:"I am the Son OF God.
/ came to pardon all your sins and to
heal all your sorrow. To prove that l am
a supernatural being, I have just de-
scended from the clouds. Do you belleVe
me, and do you believe me now?" Why,
all the telegraph stations Of the earth
would be crowded as none of them We're
ever crowded just after a shipwreck.
I tell you all these things to show you
it is not among the impossibilities or
sven the improbabilities that Christ
will conquer the whole earth, and do it
%instanter, when the time comes. There
are foretokenings in the air. Something
great is going to happen. / do not think
that Jupiter is going to d us down, or
that the axle of the world is going to
break, but I mean something great for
the worlds blessing and not for the
worlds damage is going to happen. I
think the world has had ithard enough.
