ManS Dependence Upon Products Be-
~ meath tho Surface. e. sp..
So slow was the advance in the util
ization of the earth's products that
when our ancestors first came to this
country there were not more than about
20 substances other than building
stones or gems which were won to COM
merce from the under earth. These
were scantily used; the amount of iron
required per capita each year probably
did not exceed five pounds, and the
amount Of coal consumed was even
less. AT present the annual consump-
ton of iron in this country amounts
to about $50 pounds, and of coal to moro
than ~ tons per head. The num-
her of earth materials and their inn
mediate products which enter into
the arts is to be reckoned by the hun
dreds; each year the number augments
with surprising rnpidity. Measured by
the quantity of the materials won from
the depths, the civilized man to-day, rs
compared with his ancestors in the
time Of Queen Elizabeth, has increased
his dependence on the under earth
by not less than so fold.-Prof. N. 3.

The Standard by which to Judge OF Ac-
.H H# tual Progress. ' ''r "
In his Forty Years in the English
Post Office" Mr.. +. e. Baines tells stir
ring story which illustrates the differ
ence between the slow-pacing old times
and the swift-going new. uE. u.a
Sixty years ago the mails were car
ried through England by coaches. At
the principal towns four horses, har-
messed, and two post boys ready for the
road were always in waiting in case of
accident. al ....--r.
On one occasion, when an Important
bill respecting the West Indies was be-
fore parliament, the packet for those
colonies was detained at Falmouth until
the decision should be reached. At last
the vote was taken, and the bags con-
tanning dispatches and instructions
from the colonial office to the West In
dian governors and consuls came down
to Exeter, and, as was supposed, were
all sent on by coach to Falmouth.
In the middle of the night porter
was dismayed to find n huge leather
portmanteau in dark corner of the
office. 1t was the bag of dispatches.
In n twinkling a post boy sprang on
one of the waiting horses and shot for
ward to warn all the posting stations
on the hundred miles of road to Fall
mouth. Behind him followed at break
neck pace q chaise with four and the
bag. The mail coach had,4 hours the
start. The post boy dashed on, sound
ing his horn. vuHg aia artmfasra9
Toll gates few open, fresh horses
stood waiting for the chaise down
through Devon and Cornwall. When
the chaise reached Falmouth it had
made up the four hours, but in the odd
half hour the mails had been carried OH
board the ship, and she was now. under
full sail leaving the harbor.g an
q The post boys flung the bag into 4
boat and gave chase, Pendennis castle
fired a gun. The packet understood the
signal, hove to and the bag was flung on
board.
This seems slow work to us now when
instructions can be cabled from London
TO the other side of the world in an
hour. Yet away back in the still slower
days we read of monarch who, when
he would make known in haste an edict
30 his kingdom, caused letters to be pre-
pared and sent them by "riders on
mules, camels and young dromedaries."
But, after all, it is precisely the same
human energy that uses the camel, or
the mail coach, or the lightning. We
have better tools than our brother one
century or twenty centuries ago, but
are we any better than he? Are we
serving God or our fellow men with
greater devotion and keener perceptions
OF truth and light than he served them
That is really the important question to
ask.-Youth's Companion.

A Long Farewell.

The Frenchman's politeness some
times serves him in good stead to point
q rebuke. A Frenchman who was stay
ing at hotel in Edinburgh asked, at
the cashiers desk, how mich his bill
was, and was astonished to find how
great an amount had been charged.
He felt that he had been plundered,
but he paid the bill, and then asked to
see the proprietor. Presently the land
lard came down in response to the call,
all beaming with smiles.
The Frenchman rushed up to him, ex-
claiming:
"Ah! let me embrace you! Let me
KEGS you'll"
"But why do you want to embrace
me, sir? IL don't understand"
\ "Ah! saire, but look at zee beel."
E.Your bill? Yes; but what of it?"
"Vot of it? Wy, it mean Eat sail

Our Treatment Of other,.

Consciousness is made impossible by
fidelity in self-correction. If we first
cast out the beam from our own eye
we shall be in better position to cor
rect our brother, and shall certainly be
less disposed to criticise him harshly,
The man who is loudly denouncing the
fault of Others, thereby proclaims him
self ignorant of himself. He has faults
as great, and when once he recognizes
them, the chances are that he will be
so ashamed of them as to be silent con-
corning the faults of others. No man
is more charitable in his judgment than
he who knows himself. =. Christian

. Charles Monselet,' Frenchman of

The editor of a certain scientific jour

wrote an article about it in his paper,
which ran as follows: .......

a dictionary for the use of children,
which contains definitions showing the
most extraordinary ignorance, such as

TO BE A PART.
1t Is Sometimes Much Better Than he
ing n Whole.

1t Is Sometimes Much Better Than Be
ing Whole.
1t is better to be a part of n great
thing than the whole of n little one.
Often, indeed, thing may have most
fitting and useful place as a part when 1t
loses every grade and power If 1t swings
out for itself alone. The sail as u part
Of the ship-how poets delight to esti-
mate it's beauty, and what very prac-
tical estimation is put by mariners upon
it's utility! But let it break from it's
stops, and go sailing Oft by itself like q
kite without string or tail, and its COM
plete independence destroys both it's
beauty and its utility. Wonderfully
true Is all this of life! The real diff
ference between the hopeful and the
hopeless spirit, between the optimist
and the pesslmist, is the difference be-
tween the one who sees life here as q
part OLA larger, better whole, and the
one who tries to make up out of life here
q fulness of life in itself. Worldly life
may be most exalted and, beautiful
when we see it as a part of eternal life,
fitted in as childhood TO manhood to
the fuller life beyond; it would be all
petty, sordid and wearisome il we set
out to make it the sum total of our ex-
istence. That is what Emerson meant
by hitching our wagon TO a star under
standing that our, life is a part of some
thing great. The stone that falls to
earth is nothing but a lump Of rock,
while that which still follows after the
comet is in it's measure n part OF q
stream Of light and beauty. Our lives
will be miserably petty and sad if they
get off into lonely selfshness or mar
row worldliness; as they enter into and
become part Of a greater, a Divine and
Heavenly life, they are glorifed.--S. S.

To Make Meringue.

The nieringue ON piss and buildings,
which should be a dainty foam several
inches high, is often but a crustof leath-
CT, produced by too hot an oven. After
making meringue it should be spread
roughly but evenly over the surface OF
a pie or pudding that is nearly, but not
quite, cold Turn the heat Off your
oven and bake it about 20 minutes.
When finished 1t should be a delicate
brown. Professional makers of fine
pastry dry or cook meringues in a very
slow oven from a half to three-quarters
of an hour, and then brown them
slightly with a salamander.-N. Y.
