SILENCE IN CITY STREETS.
Strange CessatiOns Which Some times Come in the Noises of
 the Day.

Every close observer of the daily life of city streets must have noticed from time to time that there come in the hustle and deafening activity of the metropolis sudden and strange cessations in the noise of the thor oughfares, says Chicago paper. At one moment the streets may be filled with life in all it's noisiest aspects. From curb to curb they will be crowd ed with heavily laGcn trucks aLd cars. The rumble and claTg of these vehicles send up roar as if Niagara were near. The immense volume Of sound will arise from the pavcments and, striking against the walls Of the sky scrapers on it's upward way, will echo dozen times before it finally fades into the air above. Hawl1ers and newsboys will be yelling their shrillest and every pe- destrian will be adding in a general way to the clangor.
 Suddenly, as though by magic, there will come a pause, what musician would call rest. All the noise-creat- ing objects and people become mute. Cars and trucks either stand still or vanish. The very wave sounds ap- pear to have been annihilated. The number of pedestrians seems to have been greatly diminished, and if they move or speak it is withoutperceptible noise. These periods of silence some times last for several seconds. Then, as though by preconcerted signal, the din recommSnces and the commercial life-blood is again pulsing through the city's arteries.

INCREASES SALE OF BEER.
The Demand Upon English Brevseries Has Been EnIarged by the
 South African War.

The depression of spirits which the war has undoubtedly pro luced does not seem to have extended so far as the great brewing districts, says a foreign exchange
 At Burton-on-T Trent, at any rate, they say that there has been, if any tbino an increase, rather than de- crease. in the output since the out break of hostilities, as the railway tonnage itself will show.
 Last year was a tremendous year for brewing. Nothing like it had been known in the history of Burton. and the brewers and the railway com panies were practically at loggerheads because t.le latter, try how they would. could not supply the trucks in sufficient number to carry the liouor from the town to it's desti- nation The carriers have scarcely wet recovered from the terrible strain, and the flow of beer, in spite of the war. continues to increase in vol ume.
 One firm alone is still paying to the Midland company alone quarter of a million annually for the carriage of their product; and the other large breweries can boast of proportionate sums. Nor is this increase Tn any way due to exports to South Africa. There is one company which knows as much as any other firm concerning sup ply of beer to her majesty's forces, and the senior managing director at Burton, who is also mayor of the bor- ough, says that his company had only sent LOCO hogsheads to the troops in South Africa since the war began. So. if there had been any real falling off in the public appetite it could not be said that it had been neutralized by consirnments to the seat of war.

The Victorious Life.

The Christian life may be viewed in many aspects, types of Christian char acter are various. Of every truly Christian career, however, it may just ly be said that it is victorious life. The Christian is logically victor. For the word Christian denotes one called after the name of, and related to, the Christ, or as we might say, Christ man. And Jesus Christ is the great conqueror of the human heart, the powers of darkness and the historic world process. Faith, which unites the soul of man vitally and dynamical- ly with this victor Christ, is the over coming principle of history. The truly victorious life is triumphant in the moral sphere. Of mere physical prowess, of mechanical mastery over the forces of nature, of military dom- ination, of political ascendancy, the Bible makes but little. In it's view the greatest man is not he who takes a city, but the man who wins his own soul by mastering it. Victory is first within. thence working outward. The victor spirit resists temptation, curbs appetite, abhors that which is evil, cleaves to that which is good, delivers its fellows from satanic bondage, builds up the kingdom of God.-N. r. Observer.

VALUE OF APPRECIATION.
It Has . Creative Power That h Too Little Understood by Thought
 less Busy People.

It is said of Jesus that, in a certain place, "He wrought no mighty works there because of their unbelief." Here, then, we see the great Master baf1ed by a certain force that is sufficient to palsy His energy. What is that force 7 He is as a workman driving a stake and finding in the earth dull, gelatinous obstacle into which it is impossible to penetrate. What is that obstacle?
 If we say it is lack of faith on the part of His hearers, we are liable to lose the outlines of the beautiful teach ing of the incident in the mist of plati- tude. Let us say, therefore, what at bottom is the same thing, that the ob- stacle is want of appreciation.
 Thus we may discover what is subtle but essential ingredient in all finest work. No teacher, preacher, artist or writer can do his best work without appreciation.
 Take it in public speech; the rarest ingredient that enters into and gives fire and power to the orators words IS the reflex flow of enthusiasm that comes back to him from the audience He may face a stolid coldness; if he cannot melt it he fails; if he can over come it, as did MT. Beecher in Manches- ter, its melting is an oil to his flame and intensifes his victory. And what mu- sician can play, what artist can paint or what author can write, except he feel that there is an audience, present in fact or in his fancy, keenly responding to his effort?
 This, it may be, is one of the funda- mental difficulties in what we call "the labor problem;" it is that in some way the handworker feels that his labor is held in some contempt among mankind. Men will never work in joy until they feel that what they do is regarded with esteem and dignity.
 The unhappiness of families springs from here. The glory of the woman will not unfold, the sweet possibilities in the wife will not appear, save in the att mosphere of appreciation. Even so the loving tenderness of the husband has frozen and become dull because there has been no sympathetic reception of his endearments. Children have been driven to despair andLto mutiaOVS per verseness because there has been a stinting of praise and plenty of fault finding.
 If we would have the flowers of love blossom around us we must plentifully water them with the rain of appreci- ative words and encourage them with the sunbeams of sympathy. If the world is to find the richest treasures of genius and talent it must learn to have a sympathetic faith. Religion is not only the most powerful, but it Is the most delicate, of the influences that touch us; and that Divine influence can not thrive and increase within us, to warm and inspire the life, without it is nurtured by our sincere appreciation. The best things of life-love, peace, God are according to our faith."5Rev. Frank Crane, in Northwestern Chris tian Advocate.

7 WHY WE SIT ON TABLES.
The Scientific Fact Is They Are More Magnetic Than Chairs, Says
 This Writer.

About 1O,O00, 900 women are exasper- ated every day by men sitting on tables. So far as I am aware, says writer in Criterion, women do not pay for the furniture, and it is none of their busi- ness how it is used. The habit of men sitting on tables has led to the inven- ton of the cushioned billiard table and will no doubt ultimately result in other clever notions. At one time it was sup posed that men chose to sit on tables because they could get exercise without exertion by swinging their own legs and by kicking the legs of the table. The scientific fact is that tables are more magnetic than chairs. If three men walk into room where there is no wom- an, two of them will make for the table naturally. The third one will try two or three chairs and finally give up in despair and join the others. The source Of this magnetism is the friction that women create by polishing tables so frequently. Of course, women say that they only polish tables because men sit on them and spoil them, but this is illogical and feminine. No really clever men sit On chairs. They use their chairs for keeping their papers and things on, also their feet.
 Chairs are notoriously immoral. You will notice that well-bred man, when he finds himself losing his temper, in- variably gets up from his chair and makes direct line for the nearest table This enables him to keep his temper and to argue reasonably.

MILES FAvoRs GOOD ROADS.
Commander of the United States Army Illustrates Their Great
 Importance,

If Gen.~Nelson A. Miles had his way the roads of the United States would be equal to those of any country on the globe. HeStells a story of an old feamster out west who was driving over a very rough road in the Rocky mountains shortly after the Geronimo campaign. He had the general for a passenger. The wagon was an old prairie schooner, without springs or cushions, and the general was vainIy attempting to fall asleep, says the Chi cago Chronicle.
 ''But there was no sleep for me on that trip" says Gen. Miles, flor tEe old rascal drove over every powder in the road; in fact, he seemed to be doing it purposely. Finally became interested and began to count the number of rocks over which the wheels of the wagon passed or which they struck. Suddenly, to my consterna- tion, he missed one-a huge bowlder in the middle of the roadway.
 "'Whoa! Hey!' I cried. Back up! Back up!'
 "IIe quietly followed my instruc- tjons, seeming to be not at all surprise by them. When he had his wagon in the proper position said: Now, drive over that rock, confound you! It's the only one you've missed.'
 Without so much as a glance in my direction, he replied: Cert, pard. Never. noticed it. Ain't got a chew about yer?'
 T got out and walked the remaining
