Medeiros had made insulting

of Medeiros.
The Brazilian Minister to Italy

The Argentine Government has

were only laughed at. Evening after
evening Miller would sit at home with
their little girl, while his wife was
somewhere else. She boosted TO Mrs,
Gamble that she beat her husband with
a broomstick and broke it over him.
His love for her was unquestioned
for he always forgave her all her es-
capades. Finally, one day Mrs. Miller
told her landlady she was going 20
leave, as she could not stand her hus-
bands seedlings any longer. Before
she left the house she threw every
thing topsy-turvy in her rooms and
when Miller came home all he re-
marked was: This comes from loving
a woman too much" The next day
he stayed at home waiting for his wife
to come back She did come after
some furniture and as she went out
of the gate he called after her: Come
back, Aggie; for Gods sake, come
back!' She gave a little toss of her
head and went back to the rooms for
something she had forgotten. In
few moments she ran down and said
to Mrs. Gamble: Il think something
terrible has happened up there" Mr..
Gamble went up and found that Miller
had hanged himself. lie was dead whep
cut down.

The Art of Not Hearing.

The art OF not hearing should be
learned by all. There are so many
things which It is painful to hear, very
many which, if heard, will disturb the
temper. corrupt simplicity and mod
esty, detract from contentment and
happiness. If a man falls into a violent
passion and calls all manner Of names.
at the first words we should shut our
ears and hear no more. If in a quiet
voyage of life we find ourselves caught
in one of those domestic whirlwinds
of scolding, we should shut our ears
as sailor would furl his sail. and.
making all tight, scud before the gale.
II a hot, restless man begins to inflame
our feelings, We should consider what
mischief the fiery sparks may do IN
our magazine below, where our temper
is kept, and instantly close the door.
II all the petty things said OF man
by needless and ill-natured idlers wee
brought home TO him he would he

full OF sharp remarks. If we would be
happy when among good men. we
should open our ears; when among
bad men. shut them 1t is not worth

about our children, what our rivals say
about our business, our dress. our AZ.

The Tyranny of Rush.

Hurry makes slaves Of us all. The

and from our experience. Push and

the revelation to his family. who at
once shared his belief, and the neigh
borhood in which the Gouches re-
sided became crazed with excitement.
and each day has served to add TO The
confusion.
A meeting was held at the Goucbe
house that night at which weird scenes
were enacted Gouche went into a
trance and the same startling predic-
ton haunted him. The verification of
the prophecy confirmed the belief of
Gouche's followers. Men. women and
children fell forward on their knees
and raised their voices in supplicltion

The lights were extinguished and
until the dawn of the next day there
was no cessation of the wild scenes
Women cried and laughed in their fran
tic frenzy; strong men wept and prayed,
but above the babble OF voices could
be heard the words of Gouche telling
his followers to prepare for divine
judgment.
Gouche is possessed OF considerable
wealth. His property is valued at $50

his property into gold and silver coin
and the night before the crumbling OF
the earth Gouche will bury his treas

with its contents and, with his follow
ers, who number twenty-five, awaits
the blast of Gabriels trumpet.
Meetings are held nightly at Gouohe's
house and with song and prayer the
coming of the new life is hailed with
great rejoicing. the band having been
reconciled to leaving this life. They
are seeking converts, but the people
living In the neghborhood who arc not
carried away with the craze look with
commiseration upon the little band.
Gouche has purchased an iron cas-
ket, in which to enter upon his last
sleep, and the last night on earth he
will spend within the iron burying box.
The afternoon of the day will witness
unique services, at which eulogies will
be pronounced and final farewells
taken. Each member OF the band will
then go home TO await the crash which
will precede the dissolution of the
world. They do not profess to know
the manner in which they are TO be
spared and the sinners slain, believ-
ing that God in His wisdom will look
after all the minor details OF their
transition to the celestian city.

pulp. Now comes a still further and
greater cheapening Of the cost of man
ufacturing by using electricity as a
motive, which, it is believed, will ulti-
mately result in a saving of % per
cent.
The plant OF the paper mill is re-
markable in many ways, and for this
reason has commanded much attention
in both engineering and power fields
While the paper mills are at the top
of the bank, as shown in the accom-
panying illustration. the pulp mills are
close to the rivers edge and the water
which furnishes the power to gener-
ate the electricity has already per-
formed a similar service to the mills
above. The water is carried down the
slope in q penstock, eight feet in d.
ameter, under a head of 125 feet. by
which 2,5O0-horse power is generated
for pulp making.
The success OF the trial of electricity
in the Niagara Falls mills has set the
paper makers here and in Europe
thinking. 1t is probable that before
many months the idea will have found
imitators. At recent meeting in New
York Of paper manufacturers of that
state a committee was appointed to
make thorough investigation and re-
port at as early an hour as possible.
