police walked in, not doubling that a
crook would be found. But to their
amusement and the deep disgust of the
druggist nothing was scared up but a
strange cat, that had been locked in that
night. The money drawer had been left
open by the clerk after he had removed
the cash so that in case the store was
disturbed by burglars they would not
smash the drawer to get into 1t. The
next person that calls out the druggist in

undoubtedly meet with language more
forceful than graceful.

IS A SUCCESS.
Publication Of the Waters of the
Seine by Passing 1t Through
Land Under Cultivation.

'Purification of River Water and
Sewage Farming is the subject of a
report to the state department from
Consul General Gowdy at Paris. He
says: 1.-The studies and experiments
begun in 1864 with view to solve the
problem of purifying the waters of the
River Seine have resulted in complete
success, as demonstrated at Gennevil-
Tiers, a suburb of Paris, on the banks of
the Seine. The engineers of the city of
Paris have accomplished the purifca-
ton of the sewer water by means of
porous earth and vegetation-thati is to
say, passing the water through land IN
der cultivation and emptying it, thus
filtered, again into the river, compare
lively free from microbes or organic
matter.
In, 1s66-1s6S the sewer water emanat-
ing from that part of Paris located on
the left bank of the Seine was conduct
ed direct to Gennevilliers, and trial
was begun over Is acres of land piur-
chased by the city.
1.-THE work, interrupted in 1870, was
renewed in 1872, and from that time
until now there has been a steadily in
creasing demand from cultivators to be
furnished with the sewer water for use
on their land. The total distribution
for the year 1898 was ], 347,245, 1863 cubic
feet"

Z A powerful blow was delivered the

''The Women's Christian association

Remarkable story OF sam-
aeI II. Hardy.

Samuel =. Hardy, q farmer living near.
New Paris, Ind, has decided to forsake.
the ploW and follow evangelical work,
exponnding a new and strange creed
originated by himself. Seven years ago.
Hardy became very i'll aud lay for days
in state of delirium. When he re-
covered hezdeclared that during the pc
Rod of Inconsistencies an angel OF
God appeared to him and demonstrated
because of his failure in his earlier
years to serve his Maker. To fully inn
press Hardy with his remissness the
angel took him by the hand and led him
forth through the Heavenly gates, pass
ing unchallenged by ST. Peter. He
walked the OF the celestial city,
the angel conversing with him and di-
lating upon the blissful condition Of the
jewellers therein. Hardy described in
uncouth yet vivid language the streets
Of gold and the walls of jasper, and
depicted with lively Imagination the
hosts of angels and the awe-inspiring
presence of jehovah.
+ When the visit to Heaven was con-
cluded he said he was piloted across
the river of death to fireplace Of eternal
torment, and as he gazed into the bot
tomless pit it was illumined with ray
of white light, which exposed to his hor-
rifed view the anguish of lost souls
condemned to endless punishment. He
was adjured bys the angel, at the close
of his experience, to go forth and labor
among his fellow men; topaint the hor-
rors of hell and the happiness of
Heaven, that evil doors might.forsake
their ways and be saved with the elect.
On this condition his earthly life was
spared and he was commissioned to la
Dor increasingly for the salvation of
sinners. Hardy was so deeply moved
by this vision that on his recovery he
wrote out at length descriptions of the
things he had seen. He felt himself in
adequate to the great work until now,
when he received the command to go
into the vineyard. Accordingly he has
had bills printed, advertising his meet
ings, and will enter upon a long tour.
