Good Field In Central America For Amer
lean Enterprise and Ingenuity.
Taken as whole, Central America
offers fair field for foreign enterprise,
says The North American Review. BY
young men of self denying and sober
habits, possessing capital Of $4,000
and tolerably good knowledge Of the
Spanish language, success either in
commerce, agriculture or mining may
be confidently counted upon, but they
must avoid all interference in local poll
tics. In these as in all other countries
the foreigner whose character and mode
of life command respect will very sell
dom, if ever, suffer molestation at the
hands of the authorities. The Nicaragua
canal, if once commenced in earnest,
will open up the almost inexhaustible
resources of that republic, and the en-
gineering works alone will offer lucra-
tive employment to thousands of for.
eigners. Its physical difficulties are in
significant compared with those which
De Lesseps never overcame on the 18TH
mus of Panama, and perhaps the greatest
obstacle to contend with is the sitting
of the alluvial deposits at the mouth OF
the San Juan river, the Atlantic en-
trance to the canal. Its whole length
will be 1914 English miles, 10 of which
are included in the great Lake of MIC
aragua, 1874 feet above the sea level,
whose total superficial area is 3,68S
English square miles. A short cutting
will connect the lake with that of Man.

There is much of selfishness in the
world, doubtless, but there is much Of
helpfulness also. Many do love their
neighbors after the New Testament pat
tern and try to be helpful. Here is q
schoolteacher on a salary Of 81, 1000 q
year who lives Oh half the sum and
with the other half supports mission
airy substitute in China. She prays daily
for her friend and weekly receives let
ter from her. The teacher had all her
life desired to be foreign missionary,
but was unavoidably prevented; so she
takes this way to serve the Lord.
There are multitudes who are by self
denial and close calculation saving
funds with which they constantly help
up some poor and friendless one. Such
cases shrink from observation. Christian
modesty prevents many of these good
deeds being known when selfishpess,
from its very nature, cannot be hidden.
More and mere our young people are
getting the spirit Of the Master and are
loving the needy neighbor and are find
ing practical means for making that
love bear fruit

Renewed interest is being taken in the

pecially do holders OF Tamarack smile.
Tuesday several orders, one for fifty

be that all the copper stocks will exper-
fence boom. The statistical position OF
the metal is all that could be asked for
and the general tone OF the business
world cannot fail to have it's fleet on

Animals and Fire.

Sports Afeld says that rattlesnakes
won't run from fire, but instead strike
till the last at the flames about them.
This is true of many animals, especially
of horses, who will rush back into q
burning barn, apparently blind with
rage, striking with their hoofs and
switching their tails in great anger.
The flight Of wild birds during mi
grating time against lighthouses is more
like the action of the green bicyclist
who rides against trolley car or
wagon as if bypnotized by it and in
spite of his fears.
Gorillas, il is said, delight in fire.

dies down and at last wading in tho

A little fire built beneath one of the
pear shaped paper wasp nests that are
seen hanging from low branches will
kill every wasp in it, as the insects fly
at il one by ono in their cndeavors to
save their home and young.
Deer are frequently heard about Adj

RWORTH LEAGUE.
Lesson For the Week Beginning Nov. q
Comment by Rev. w. j. Yates. A. NJ.
Topic, cbrist's Testimonies
20 His Father.

SCRIPTURE RBADIso.-John v. s0-sS- q: iii. IS.
Never man spake as this man. was
the testimony Of those who listened to
the words Of Jesus. After the lapse Of
all the centuries since He ascended no
man has appeared to match Him In
marvellous insight into spiritual and di-
vine truth. He seemed to arrive ut IL
not by any processes Of reasoning, but
by Immediate knowledge or intuition.
He was ms conscious Of the Fathers will
and nature as of His own existence. He
speaks as clearly of His relation to the
Father as an ordinary man does Of his
relation to his earthly parents. The
sense of security in Sne Fathers affec-
tion is something absolutely new amona
men. Abraham had penetrated to the
depth of the fact that God is friend
and men can enter into covenant with
Him. Moses had learned to know God
as lawgiver and just Judge; 90. others Of
the prophets came to some section Of
truth, but to Jesus the whole depth and
breadth of the divine being seemed
open and more clearly in view than the
simple affairs Of everyday life to most
men.
His promise is to reveal the Father to
those who desire this knowledge. He
came to give the world life and to give
1t abundantly. OF all the blessings be-
slowed in the wisdom and goodness Of
God upon His creatures, no other benefit
compares with this revelation Of the
divine Father through Jesus Christ.
His testimony is for all men in all
chimes and to all ages 1t is the message
for which the world has waited with
deep, unutterable heart yearning and is
the truth which alone can give soul
peace. Whoever hears His voice does
come forth from the grave Of all dead
hopes to new life and love.

BISHOP W. x. NINDE secure rotation
in Office" Bishop Ninde has already
given much time and thought to League
interests and is in full sympathy with
the society and its purposes.
He was born in Cortlandville, N. T..

versity in 1865. He entered the minis
try and was successfully member Of
Black River, Cincinnati and Detroit

1884 he was elected bishop.

Temperance Sentiment.

Though the temperance movement is
moral one, we have long been con.
WINGED that its ultimate triumph will
come as q commercial necessity. This
belief is strengthened by the progress
already made. There are now many
great corporations which will not en-
ploy a person who uses intoxicants in
any degree. The great railroads of the
country, employing over 200. 900 men,
are almost unanimous in this regard. II
men will not deny themselves and be-
come temperate because it is right, and
IL legislation cannot be secured to sup
press the saloon ms moral evil. perhaps
we shall find both ends accomplished by
the exigencies of business. When men
find they cannot get job If they drink,
they will abstain, and when the work
ingman becomes an abstainer the saloon
will close for lack of business However
it may come, we hope for the day when
the drink traffic shall cease.

The strength of his poem, the ''Divina

pictures Of physical suffering, but in its
conceptions Of moral truth.
The awful sinfulness Of sin was never

touched in the conception Of soul after

The Selfish Person.

The great pity of the selfish person is
not that he robs others OF pleasure or
comfort. but that he is so thoroughly
unhappy himself. The selfish person Is
never satisfied, never content. When he
has ureedily taken all, he still wants
more. while the unselfsh person finds
real happiness in giving to Others the
little he has. From q purely seinsh
noint of view the unselash person 10 tho
