SUNDAY THOUGHTS.
From Canon Earrar's Year Book.

From Canon Earrar's Year Book
Men will be lofty or low according
to the objects to which they direct
their souls: according to the scale
with which they measure their lives.
If they think on things pure and true
and lovely, they will reflect these
qualities, even as the angels reflect
the glory of God on their many COL
Orad plumes. But if their ideal be
dwarfed and miserable. their lives,
too, will be small and mean. 1t is
impossible to exaggerate the Impor-
lance of having worthy ideals. Tell
me whom you admire, and l will tell
you the drift of your character, Show
me what your ideal is, and l will show
you what you yet may be. "The
ideal, after all, is truer than the real {:
for the ideal is the eternal element in
perishable things ."-Amiel.
From dreams of bliss shall men awake
One day, but not to weep.
The. dream remains; they only break
The mirror of the sleep.
George Mcdonald.
Let Him, Our Lord, our Hope, our
Saviour, let Him be our ideal, and not
the ideal of the world. Let His, and
not the example of the world, be our
example. So shall we attain the full
height of our destiny.

that when the summer display is over

Dramatic Readers

Miss Frances c. Fulton gave a recital
of owen Meredith's Lucille on the
18th instant at the normal school. The
poem was condensed by the reader and
presented in four parts
The large size of the assembly hall in
which the recital was given made it ex-
tremely difficult for Miss Fulton to pro-
duce the effects she evidently intended.
Her voice is flexible and sweet but not
at all strong Some of the best passages
were marred by a rapidity of delivery
which, owing to the acoustic peculiari-
ties of the hall. resulted in indistinguish-
able sound. Miss Fulton is, physically,
parlor reader. She seems to have a gen.
uine sympathetic understanding of the
poem she read, but the dramatic points
requiring force she is unable to conve.,
with the necessary emphasis and power.
Her chief defect as reader is her want
of knowledge of poetic construction. She
pays not the slightest attention to ac-
cent, and let's the rhythm take care Of
itself. According to her method of in
depreciation the poem should have been
written in prose. The fact that the music
of the lines is not entirely destroyed by
such treatment is great tribute to the
gchius of the author. The measure in
which Lucille" is written is very easy
smooth and flowing, presenting less than
the ordinary difficulties to a capable
reader. and it is a pity to find that Miss
Fulton should have thought it worth
while to ignore the metrical beauties OF
such masterpiece of English poetry.
Mary French Field daughter of the
late Eugene Field, read from her fathers
poems at the Berkeley Lyceum in New
York city recently, her metropolitan de-

| bued with the same spirit which guided
| the gentle pen of her gifted father.

Heating the House,
From the New YORK ledger.

Heating the house, if one has furn-
ace, is by many persons considered very
great problem Just why this is so 1t is
easy to understand. In the first place,
the care of the furnace is usually left to
man or maid. The former looks at it once
or twice in the course of the day; the lat
ter hates it, and therefore takes no inter
est in it. Then the householder complains
that the furnace is no good, and forthwith
denounces this system of heating as unre-
liable and unsatisfactory
In putting in furnace, the one thing
of prime importance is to see that it Is large
enough. A SO furnace is none too large
for six or eight-room house If of this
size, it is safer, more easily managed, more
economical and works far better than a
smaller one Many people think it is a
much greater consumer of coal, but this
is not true if the furnace is properly man
aged 1t is ont of the question to main
tain good degree of heat in cold weather
without the use of fair amount of fuel
and it is much better to burn a furnace
with moderate degree Of draft and with
a good supply of coal rather than have a
small fFepot that needs constant erowding
and reflling and have the rise and fall of
temperature incident upon putting on fresh
coal when the fire is low and turning on
the drafts to heat Up again, process
always attended with an extra consumption
of fuel,

The Worlds Largest Tree.
From the Mineral Collector.

The largest tree in the world lies broken
and petrifed at the end of de6le in
Northwestern Nevada. Its dimensions
are so great that those who know OF its
existence hesitate to tell the story because
they hardly expect to be believed, but
there is sufficient evidence to give. the tale
credit, improbable though it may seem.
This tree makes the monarchs of the
Mariposa Grove seem like imposters, and,
compared to it, ''the tallest pine grown on
Norwegian hills to be the mast of some
great admiral is but wand. As for the
story of its discovery, it is thus told by
Dad Lynn, of Fresno, and supported
by other equally we'll people:
Back in 1860 a company of about
forty five left Red Bluff to prospect the
then unknown country beyond Honey Lake
and Surprise Valley There were in the
party lawyers, butchers and shoemakers,
but we were one-sided on one point-each
individual felt positive that this was the
turning point Of his existence, and that
bright, shining gold in unlimited quantities
would reward the rather unpleasant jaunt
1.-The Indians--we call them Bannacks--
were at that time raising hair, and very
many sudden moves were at times neees-
sary in order to get rid Of their unwelcome
attentions. Finding but little gold in this
section. we travelled toward Baker county,
Oregon, through country entirely denud-
ed of timber, except few dwarf cotton
woods along the waterways. Close to the
Baker county line we came to an opening
in the rocks, about wide enough for our
wagons to 90 through, and on either side
loomed precipices 500 to 600 feet high.
The crevasse was about l miles long, and
at its end. just to the right of the trail,
we found a number of petrifed stumps OF
different heights and sizes,
sin their midst on the ground lay a
monster tree, somewhat imbeded in the
soil 1t was completely petrifed, and from
the clean cut fractures of the trunk seemed
to have fallen after petrifcation. At Its
butt this tree was quite 60 feet in diam
eter. We measured its length with tape
line. 1t was just 666 feet long. Nc
limbs remained, but in the trunk were
clefts where apparently limbs had broken
off. Amber-like heads of petrifed pitch
or gum adhered to the sides Of the trunk
for distance of 100 feet or more.
.sWhere the huge trunk was broken
sonarely off the centre seemed transparent,
and the growth marks showed in beautiful
concentric rings It's natural appearance
was handsomer than any dressed marble OF
mosaic have ever seen, and we all ex-
pressed the opinion that it would make a
wonderfully beautiful floor and interior fin
ish for some grand building.
