The microscope has been very slowly
evolved and is the creation OF no one
man. In its present form 1t is, like
living species according to Darwin, the
outcome of the survival OF the nttest Oh
innumerable variations, the majority OF
which have been discarded. Indeed 70
one interested in microscopes and famil-
lar with the present model nothing can
seem ouainter than the old forms which
prevailed during the earlier half OF TINS
century and have since become extinct.
Tn the evolution Of the microscope two
factors have been dominant, the demand
for optical improvement and the de-
mand FOR mechanical convenience. Both
"a these demands have been well met SO
that there appears little left for the iu-
ture to achieve until an entirely new
direction is opened for further evolution.
II need hardly be promised that the
optical part Is the essential part OF :
microscope. The optical performance OF
the best microscopes is today perfect
having become 30 very slowly py nu'
merous small improvements Although
magnifying glasses were invented IL !,
said. in the twelfth century, COMPOUND
microscopes with achromatic lenses havt
been In use barely three quarters OF
century. while the introduction of no
mooeneous immersion lenses dates from
1878, and Of the perfected spochromau'

One Of the Lost Tribes.

Scattered over the breezy downs OF the
Nilgherries, in little village OF wicker
houses that looks at little distance like
nothing in the world so much as col.
ony of beehives, live a community OF
600 or ZOO people, who are variously De-
lieyed to be the descendants OF one OF
the lost tribes of Israel, the aborigines OF
southern India, and community OF
Manichasens.
They believe in strange trinity and
a hell. n dismal stream full OF leeches,
and this they must cross by means OF
single thread. The soul burdened with
sin is too heavy for this slender support,
and the sinner falls into the stream, but
the thread sustains easily the souls OF
the good.
The funeral of Toda, for that is the
name of the singular tribe, is as odd III
its way as its religious belief. His body
is wrapped in new cloth and his toes
tied together with red thread Gram,
sugar. tobacco and money are concealed
in his funeral toga to provide him FOL

Sham is mean anywhere. In matters
Of religion it is particularly hateful II
does double damage to truth Appear
ing purer than virtue itself. it brings sus-
picion ON the good, and, knowing its
own falsity, it hates and injuries, so FAR
AZ lies in its power, the real and pure
In the times Of Jesus all parties in the
Jewish church seem to have lost the
essential ideas of religion. A code OF
rigid rules impossible for any one TO
keep had taken the place Of hearty love
and obedience required by God in the
ancient law. The Pharisees, who pro-
fessed to be the most devoted and pious,
choked all our life out of religion by
| their empty forms of worship, which but
scantily cloaked their evil and hypoc-
risy. The Sadducees openly rejected all
belief in spiritual existence and future
resurrection and held the high places OF
honor and power in the church for what
they could get out Of them. Many were
VIGOROUSLY wicked.
The fault found by the Pharisees with
the disciples of Jesus for plucking and
rubbing the ears of grain in their hands
when passing on the Sabbath day
through the grainfeld was not ON ac-
count of any care for the grain taken,
but was because in picking the grain
heads and rubbing them labor had been
done. This was unlawful, according to
their creed or tradition. They had lost
the true intent of the Sabbath as holy
rest for man and made it time to be
dreaded. 1t was instituted for helpful
ness to men physically and spiritually.
They had so changed it by their rules
that one was forbidden to satisfy his
hunger if it involved work. Nor could
,, | he relieve the sick except In extreme
.. cases Of danger of death.
In the temple courts the avarlce o.
| the priests had allowed booths for cat
! tie and tables for money brokers to crowt

lipious instruction and for worship
" All these evil practices and hypocrltica
pretensions of superior sanctity Jesu
openly rebuked by his teaching and ex
ample.
1t is right to do good on the Sabbat
day.
His rebukes do not make Pharisees c
