DECLINE OF CHURCH-COINC.
Two Reasons why People DO Not &c
to Service.

The pulpit used to be the chief
means OF instruction and OF intellectual
and moral stimulation for the people.
The pulpit orator was the peoples Or
ator. The pulpit has in great measure
lost it's attractive power In this re-
gard, says Popular Science. The daily
and weekly press have a greater iniu-
ence In public instruction. The multi
plication of cheap books also takes
from the pulpit large share Of its in
fiuence in this regard. Oratory In legis-
lative bodies has to great extent lost
its influence. It's place has been taken
by simple, compact, time-saving state
ments, often printed but not delivered.
Committees do the work which used
to be done after discussion before the
public. So the people will not listen
now to the pulpit orator Of former gen.
erations. They demand short, crisp ser
mons that bristle with points and are
practical and helpful. In other words,
the oratorical and highly intellectual
character Of the pulpit, which used to
attract worshipers, no longer attracts
them. They feel that they can get
more benefit In this regard by reading
in the comfort of the home. Multi
tudes of people can no longer be in
duced to attend church to be instructed
by the minister or to get his Judgment
on topics of the time, or to be stirred
by his eloquence; they can get all
these things cheaper and easier by
reading at home. When, now. this Is
REINFORCED by the fact that multitudes
dislike the doctrines Of the church and
resent them when they are preached,
we can easily understand that church
attendance should decline very greatly
from this reason.

Three Poison. In Tobacco smol..

c. Blnz, In the Deutsche Aerzte-Zei-
tung, says there are three kinds OF pol
son in tobacco smoke: nicotine; that
which is obtained by the slow ash for
nation, pryridin, etc, and carbonic OK
ide. Carbonic oxide Is always easily
shown to be present In tobacco smoke.
Its percentage depending upon the vol
ume Of the smoke gas, varies between
0.6 and 76. The variations depend
upon the rapidity OF the ash formation
and the quantity of the atmospheric air
drawn in or the lung air blown out. A
never-so-slight acute poisoning from
carbonic acid OF tobacco smoke is, un-
der ordinary conditions, scarcely to be
expected. Whether the daily taking
In OF the small quantity OF carbonic
oxide which, through many years OF
smoking, gets into the blood Of smok-
err, cannot set up a chronic injury Is
b question stlll to be settled.

SINGULAR Fruit FOR A TREE.
Chinese Product I'll Bears Tailow
Brought to South Carolina.


The people OF China are emlnently
practical, and have added much to the
civilization of mankind by their habits
OF industry, OF which the method Of
obtaining vegetable tallow is an excel
lent example. The tree producing this
tallow is called Stlllingia Sebifera, and
the words remind us OF tho dropping
product and its soapy nature. The Chit
nese pick the seeds of this tree in au-
tumn, and first place them in a wooden
cylinder, open at the top and perforat-
ed at the bottom. after being steamed
over a fire for ten or fifteen minutes
the tallow is softened and Is then more
readily separated. The seeds are trans
ferred from the steaming cylinder to o
stone mortar. in which they are gently
beaten. They are then thrown on a
sieve, heated over the fire and siftei,
by which process the tallow is separat-
cd and resembles coarse Indian meal.
In this state the tallow Is put between
circles of twisted straw and these plac-
ed in a press, by which the tallow is
forced out and falls into tub. Freed
from all impurities, 1t is then semi
fluid of a beautiful white color Candles
made of It easily melt in hot weather
and on this account they are dipped in
melted wax Of various colors-red,
green or yellow-and are exposed for
sale by tallow chambers and other
shopkeepers. This remarkable tree Is
found on the banks OF the Min, in See
chuen. 1t also grows near Soochow,
and has been transplanted to North
and South Carolina. 1t is tree with
shining green leaves and small yellow
flowers at the end OF the branches.
They are succeeded by dark colored
seeds and vessels containing delicate
white seeds. In late autumn, on the
banks OF the Tsien-tang river In Cho-
kiang, south OF Hangchow, this tree Is
a striking object. The leaves are then
of a blood red color instead OF a light
green. When the tallow has been
squeezed out OF the seeds the remainder
is preserved to be used as fuel or TO
enrich the land.-Philadelphi Record.

WHAT AsroNIsHEDTHg SCOUT
Ostriches in South Africa Are OFTEN
Exceedingly Enmlliar


The war in South Africa Is produc-
tive OF the greatest curiosities that
nave ever come under the notice Of the
British soldiers. One of the latest re-
ports from the scene states that the
simple-minded British soldiers have
mistaken troops Of ostriches for bands
OF Beers and bands of Beers for troops
or ostrlches. In some cases the o3-
triches have made friends with the
soldiers. One OF the best known cor
with General Methuen at the Modder
river, reports this remarkable Incl

plain with my glasses something slip
ped and tumbled heavily over the loose
stones behind me. l turned, thinking
to dodge or help a stumbling man and
found myself staring into the grea
brown eyes of an ostrich six feet tai
