"One of the strange indirect results
Of the Boer war may be the perfecting
of practical flying machine" said a
gentleman who has a fondness for me
chanical problems "The man who
has come nearest doing 1t is Mr..
Hiram s. Maxim. the inventor Of the
Maxim automatic gun. Eight or nine
years ago he began an elaborate ser
les OF experiments on his fine private
estate near Kensington, England.
Roughly described. his machine was
an enormous kite supplied with a pro
peller run by a steam engine, the the
ory being that 1t would be sustained
in flight by atmospheric pressure. He
constructed a two-mile railroad track
along which the 'aeroplane,' as he
called It, was to run, getting up
enough velocity to enable it to Leap
into space, and then he built several
full-slzed models.
Mr. Maxim is an accomplished me
chanical engineer, and he went about
the jrk in a thorough scientific fash
ion, feeling his way and correcting de
fects as he went along. of course
such experimenting was frightfully ex
penslve, and, at the end of three years
when he seemed to be just on the
verge of success he was obliged tC
stop for lack of funds. He was toe
sensible a man to try to capitalize {
flying machine company so he quietly
announced that he was going back tC
gunmaking and when he accumulat
ed enough money, would take a fresl
start at the aeroplane.
"Since then business has been brisl

CIIURCH NOTES.

We were exceedingly gratified by
the presence of our Presbyterian
friends at the service last Sabbath
evening. Whenever the other pas
tors in town are away, or their
churches closed, their congregations
will receive most hearty welcome
at our church.
The belief that business is one thing
and religion quite another thing has
led to the preparation oftwo sermons,
on the following topics: "What the
church owes to business men" and
"What business men owe the church"
The first of these will be preached on
Sunday evening, June 24th, and the
second on the following Sunday ev-
ening. a special invitation is ex-
tended to men.
We have been greatly pleased by
the goodly number of men at our
church services. The idea that relig-
is something for "children, women
and FOOLS" is antiquated. None but
fools think that way in this enlight-
ened age. The greatest, as well as
the best, men of the day profound be-
levers in Christianity. 1t is the am
bition to have our church a "record
breaker" in its enhance of men.
The writer anticipates a very pleas
ant trip to Flatbrookville, where he
is engaged to address the Sunday
school convention, held on Thursday
June 2lst. He has also been invited
to address our own convention held
at Lackawaxen on the 26th, but is
Obliged to decline, because our Quart
erly Conference comes on the same
date.
The presence of strangers at oul
church services is greatly appreciated
If any such desire a call from the
pastor, and will make the fact known,
he will be glad to visit them. While
in town we will do what we can tC
make the vacation of all as pleasant
and profitable as possible.
The Mount Tabor camp meeting
will begin August Sth, with a granC
temperance rally, followed by the
meeting of the Missionary societies,
and the EpwOrth League. From thu
18th to the 18th evangelistic services
will be held. AS soon as the program
is completed, it will appear in thi
column.

Bishop Nide retires from the presi-
dency of the Epworth League with
the confidence and love of everybody.
He did four years of magnificent
service. His response to calls to do
service in the field was always prompt
and generous. Indeed, some of u
have felt that he taxed his strength
unduly. His addresses and sermons
have been an inspiration to the null
tudes of young people who have heard
him, and the influence of his wise
words will linger with them always.
Bishop Nide's uniform good nature
and courtesy have made it a pleasure
for those at headquarters to. be associ-
ated with him. He will ever have
our warm affections.-Epworth Her

We cannot fec away, my beloved
readers, from trouble, from temptation,
from sorrow, from sin. They must be

promised to the children Of God, but it
is not to be found Ia thi, world. God
has promised and prepared FOR those who
love Him mansions in which beauty
win neverfade, sorrow never dim the
eye, love never change but they await
the children who have part in the res,
direction Of Christ. This is mistake
which man is ever making, dreaming
that he can find rest by flying away
from the present. Whenever sad or
sorrowful, his feeling is that Of the
Psa1mist; oh, that had wings Ike a

world ia the same wherever he goes, be-
cause he himself is he same When he
has shifted all the scenes OF life and
played his part ia many different ones,
he learns at the last that perfect rest Is
nowhere but in himself; that peace is
not the product Of earthly combination
but is the gift Of Christ. But what
