THINGS THAT NEVER DIE.

The pure, the bright, the beautiful,
That stirred our hearts in youth,
The impulses to wordless prayer,
The streams of love and truth;
The longings after something lost,
The spirits yearning cry,
The striving after better hopes
These things can never die.
The timid hand stretched forth to alo
A brother in his need;
A kindly word in grief's dark hour
That proves a friend, indeed;
The plea for mercy softly breathed,
When Justice threatens high
The sorrow of a contrite heart
These things shall never die.
The cruel and the bitter word,
That wounded as it fell;
The chilling want of sympathy
We feel, but never tell;
The hard repulse that chills the heart
Whose hopes were bounding high
IN an unfading record kept
These things shall never die.
Let nothing pass, for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not a chance to waken love
Be firm, and just, and true;
SO shall light that can not Iaue
Beam on thee from on high,
And angel voices say to thee
These things shall never die.

If pure oxygen can be produced at a
low cost. there are many uses already
known for it in the arts, and many
others would develop. 1t can be used
to refine sugar, to turn wool fat and
other foul greases into valuable oils
and to purify sewage. 1t is the pure
oxygen which can also be used in con-
nection with carbon or a hydrocarbon,
such as alcohol, to take the place Of
gunpowder. as an explosive for guns or
shells
Mr.. Ostergren has already applied
for patents for gun and shell, in
which alcohol or charcoal and liquid
oxygen are to be used for the charges.
In the gun alcohol would be used char

pipes would take the charge of oxygen

while the loading of the shells would

Another idea which Mr.. Ostergren
is developing is the use of liquid air

sistance of the conductors, which
either requires the use of extremely
high voltages, which have again to be
reduced for use, or the use of great
quantities of expensive metal in the
conductors. It's a well known fact
that pure metals, at the temperature of
liquid air, have almost no electrical
resistance. Mr.. Ostergren has designs
for an electric conductor, which shall
be kept at this low temperature by
liquid air under conditions which he
believes would be both practical and
economical. Such a conductor, he
thinks, would enable a current to be
transmitted as readily from Niagara
Falls to this city as from the Falls to
Buffalo.
"These," said Mr. Ostergren, "are
but suggestions as to the possible uses
of liquid air and the other products of
the liquefying process. They may be

THE ANALOGY THAT FAILED.

After much labor the savant dis
covered that Queen Victoria's father
was one of nine sons; the queen is the
ninth sovereign since the revolution,
and was born in the nineteenth cen
fury in 1919; the queen has had nine
children; the prince of Wales was born
on Nov 9, and married the princess of
Wales in her nineteenth year; the
princess, too, is the daughter of Chris
tan TX, of Denmark.
With pardonable pride he presented
to the world the fruit of his researches.
"But," the carping critic at once
protested, with his usual cruel sheer,
there are but seven facts! Where are
the other two?"
The savant swooned, for he was SEN
sitive, and all the world grieved with
him.-Detroit Journal.

that he ''does not want to have them

hardly adequate, or indeed clear, I'M
