REV. MR.. BoDY's ADDRESS.


The second address of the morning by
Rev. c. w. Body OF New York, was In
part as follows:
Analysis and Synthesis may perhaps
call for some preliminary attempt at de-
fnition.
Analysis, OF course, implies the dis
solution Of a concept, whether IL be real.
as in the case of material substance,
or hypothetical, ss in the case OF a
mental proposition or conception into its
elements or chain OF logical consequences.
"Synthesis is the inverse process OF
putting together that which has been pre-
viously analysed usually for the pur-
pose OF verification.
Thus all analysis presupposes known
complex on which to work an sll-verify-
inE synthesis.
Now, shortly, We may say that the
Christian religion has for It's object to
restore 20 their original perfection the re-
lations which are essential and OF divine

Laurel Crowns.

The laurel crown used to decorate
the brow Of the victor in the old
Olympian games or the head of some
triumphant general was composed OF
bay leaves. The bay is Taurus nobilis,
and thus the wreath or crown has
been called laurel or bay, according
to the whim Of the writer. The bay
was considered by the ancients to be
an antidote against poison and Sc
curity against lightning. Its leaves
were used to provide pleasing in
cense, and a spray Of bay was carried
in the garments of all superstitious
persons as a guard against all dangers.
1t is interesting to note how the
laurel or bay has passed down to these
more prosaic times. The heads on
medals, coins. etc., are almost always
crowned with laurel. Then we have
poet laureate. or the poet crowned
with laurel-that is to say, the chief
poet of the times. Again, the title of
bachelor, won by exceptional skill in
connection with art or science, takes
us back to the middle ages, when
young doctors were crowned with
laurel and received the title of bacca

A Dry Smoke,

If you see a man with an unlighted
cigar between his lips, it is not be-
cause he is looking for light, but be-
cause he is INDUCING in the pleasure Of
a ''dry smoke" How there can be any
enjoyment in this to a smoker is not
readily apparent, but the fact remains
that there is much satisfaction in the
habit, and, besides, there are no bane-
full effects.
For inveterate smokers the dry smoke
is a good habit to cultivate. 1t enables
many slaves Of the weed to decrease
the number of cigars actually smoked
in a day without causing much incon-
venience. Of course an inveterate
smoker would find no pleasure in the
habit at the start but perseverance is
necessary, and after awhile he will en-
joy his dry smoke almost as much as
the real one. 1t is a good way to be-
gin if you desire to stop smoking. Try
it and see.-New York Herald.

WANTED HIS FARE RUNG UP.
An italian who Demanded Music of
the Street Car Conductor.

An italian who Demanded Music of
the Street Car Conductor.
The conductor Of a Brooklyn trolley
car had peculiar experience with aa
Italian one night last week. The
Italian wanted to ride with music
thrown in for his cents. A passenger
described the incident:
81 boarded the car with six other pass
sengers, including an Italian at the
suburban end of the road on one Of the
late trips. The car had gone a short
distance when the conductor began to
collect the fares. The Italian was on
the rear seat, and his money was col
lected last. Everything went well for
about half mile, when the Italian
jumped to his feet and waved his
hands at tbs conductor. The conductor
what the trouble was. The Italian
said:
Me wanta my fiva centa back
"The conductor told him that he
could not have the money. The Italian
insisted:
centa; me no got
'"The conductor grasped the situation
at once, and, seeing that he was ac-
cused of 'nickeling, started to clear
himself. He showed the Italian that
there were seven passengers on the
car and that that number of fares were
registered. He also explained why the
italian did not get any music for his
nickel. He said:
"'While collecting the fares in the
front part Of the car I rang up one
fare too much, and if l rang up yours I
would be out 5 cents
"While this explanation was going on
the man from Italy was still shouting
for his 'fva centa,' and did not stop
until he got off the car farther down,
still jabbering at the conductor" New

Hor.e. wounded In Battle.

Horses wounded on the battlefield
are duly attended to when no danger
to human life is involved. The veteri-
nary officer in charge is expected to
follow close on the fighting line and,
together with number Of aids, to in
spect properly wounded animals and
give instructions for their removal or
slaughter, as the case may be. The
veterinary surgeon is naturally expos
ed to considerable danger, but if his
work is not carried out during the
progress of hostilities in all probability
it cannot be accomplished afterward
for, although the royal army medical
corps is allowed to proceed to the res
cue Of the wounded men under the
Red Cross, the members Of the army
veterinary department are not permit
ted to attend to the injured horses, be-
cause they are not under the protection
of the Geneva convention, which makes
no provision whatsoever for wounded
animals.
AT the conclusion Of the battle, if it
has been decisive and one or other of
the combatant armies has been driven
from the field, party Of veterinary
surgeons, with their assistants, is sent
out to examine every animal that has
fallen and to shoot such as are badly
wounded. Those suffering from only
slight injuries are collected and taken
to the veterinary hospital lines, formed
as fixed camps and established on g
similar basis to those Of the royal ar
my medical corps. = Pearson's Maya

Ee Grabbed the ofer.

Ex-Governor George W. Peck of
Wisconsin, author Of "Peck's Bad
Boy" was running a little country
weekly in the pineries in the early six

save for one column of jokes which
Peck wrote each week. This depart

he wrote to Peck asking him whether
he would be willing to go down to La
