tional Importance, since the water
available for the requirements OF the

for watersheds, whence the supply for
large towns could be obtained, while
village populations had too often to
depend upon shallow wells, which
were liable to pollution. Flood waters
should be stored, so as to render the
flow of rivers more equable, and the
excess water which now caused dam

EYEGLASSES AND WHY.
Increase In the Number OF Persons

Increase In the Number OF Persons
who Wear Spectacles.
The question is often asked, partic-
toms and experiences of twenty five
years ago: why do so many persons
nowadays wear glasses?" The answer
is easy says Liprincott's. The in
crease in the number of spectacles
Worn is not to he regarded as an evil
dence of modern degeneration of the
eyes. but rather that long-felt neces-
.ity has been met" For 1t should be
remembered that within the past quar-
ter of century much has been learned
about the value OF glasses, and the
range of their application and useful
less has been enormously extended.
OF course, the eyes need more help
how than formerly, as the amount of
work they are required to do Is much
greater than at any previous period In
the worlds history. The sewing ma
chine and many otker inventions of its
class save the labor of the hands only
to add to that required OF the eyes.
New employments, new amusements,
and new fashions are continually being
introduced to increase the eXactions
laid upon those sensitive and delicate
organs. The steady decrease of illit-
eracy, together with the general cheap
ness of literature and a spread OF a
taste for 1t, the enormous circulation
of novel. magazine and newspaper. the
ever-inCreasing use of artificial illumi-
nation, all combine to overtax the eyes
and to weaken or possibly destroy the
sight unless the required aid and pro-
lection be supplied through every
means at our disposal. Thus it hap
pens that the sometime luxury of prop
erly adapted glasses has come to be rec
ognzed and understood by very many
of the present generation as one of the
real necessities of their lives.

Its Place.
Are We utterly dependent upon coal,
so that the wheels OF industry will stop
and the forests be consumed for fuel
when coal gives out? OF course not.
II is an idle fear, says Gunton's Maya
zine. Already we have the beginnings
OF new method of utilizing natural
energy which will prove enormously
more effective than coal ever has been,
and will be practically inexhaustible,
to whatever extent industry may eX-
pand. Electrical energy, developed by
water power, will run the worlds in
dustries, furnish Its light and heat
and be the universal substitute for all
ferns of combustion methods Water
power is practically unlimited, and il
will be utilized more and more in pro-
portion rs the need for II arises, and
AZ Its use becomes, at different places
and at successive periods, cheaper than
coal. The substitution will proceed
gradually, until, when the coal supply
finally is exhausted, nobody will have
anything more than curious or acad-
emic interest In the matter, and prob
ably not ripple will be produced in
the steady onward flow OF the worlds
industry. As the use OF water power
to develop electrical energy increases
to the point OF formidable COMPETE
ton with coal electrical students and
inventors will doubtless bring out i'm
provements making II possible to
store the power or conduct it long dis
tances at small cost, until our facto-
ries, railroads and ships can he oper-
ated by II, our houses lighted and
warmed and food prepared. all at even
less expense than is possible today

OCCASION OF THE SENDING.
AS Jesus went about all the
cities and villages of Galilce and
saw the scattered condition of the
people as sheep without Il shcp-
herd. He was moved with compass
sion, and determined to send forth
the twelve, two and two, the better
to reach them, both for relief and
instruction. We must not lose
sight of the fact that another OBJ
ject of this mission was for the
training of the twelve, for duty
when He was gone. We may safe
ly say, think, that this latter was
the chief work of Christ in His
three years ministry.
PLACE AND LIMITATIONS or THEIR
WORK.
They were to cOnfine their opc-
rations to the province of Galilee.
They were sent only to the lost
sheep of the house of Israel
Why this limitation! They were
not prepared for any wider circle
becau ST of their own spiritual de-
ticiencieS. Their hearts were too
narrow and their prejudices too
strong; and while Christ's ulti-
mate aim was the conquest of the
world, His immediate purpose was
to obtain Il base of operations
among His own chosen people.
The double duty they had in hand
was preaching and the physical re-
lief of the people. In the dis
charge Of the latter function their
power seemed unlimited; in the
matter of preaching their commits
sion was very restricted: AS yc
go, preach, saying, the kingdom
of heaven is at nand." The rea-
sons for the unlimited authority
on the one hand, and the restricted
commission on the other must be
explained by the teachers to their
classes. Space forbids explana-
ton here.
THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN THE
TWELVE.
These are given at length in
this chapter, and are suitable for
the ambassadors of Christ in all
times. The substance of them is,
care not, and fear not" Go,
trusting in the Lord. DO your
duty, and leave the consequences
with God. AS Bruce in The
Training Of the Twelve says:
His instructions proceed upon
the principle of division of labor,
assigning to the servants military
| duty, and to God the cOmmiSariat
department. y
RESULTS OF THE MISSION.
Though not given III detail, we
infer that they succeeded in stirring
up considerable interest, for the
fame of their labors reached the
ears of Herod, and on their return
they were thrOnged by an eager
and admiring public who had wit
messed or experienced the benefit
of their work, which was chiefly Il
house to house visitation. But we
find from the history subsequently
that these results We're evanescent,
and the crowds melted away under
the searching discourse of Jesus on
the True Bread of Life. y
