On the one hand, it cOnfers upon us the
power to choose a course Of life leading to
God, to all goodness, to heaven; or on the
other hand, the power to choose another
course, leading away from God. to evil. to
perdition. An awful power it is. to be able
to choose God: terrible TO be able to refuse
Him. Yet precisely that power all men are
exercising every moment Of every day Of
their lives.
God offers freely the means Of grace to

effort TO secure a glorious destiny in His
everlasting kingdom. The wells OF saliva

must seek the sources whence these flow.
else God cannot give them to US; for to
force on US what We will not receive Is
to reverse His mode Of dealing with men

by constraint, but willingly, and Of a ready
mind. Then God can, and will, give abund-
antly Of His grace and help 10 fight the

Ned strove TO speak; but couldn't get out

his collar tight, pushes him before him,
across the fields, an up the lane, an
through the yard TO Lang's door.
The house was dark, but Tom bangs at
the door an brings Lang's head out of a
window above. who's there. in Gods

But Ned stood hangin' his head, speech

him by the collar again, marched him to

For all that, it was a while before Sally

sure Toms ways could hardly have been

end, an at last they were married; an Tom
had some one to keep his hearth tidy an
give him company. They lived together
many a year an things went we'll enough

pair. In more ways than one Tom had
found his match. And the end was that
one wore out the other through pure con-
trariness Of nature; and they died both Of

The belief was that any one who
looked at representation of st. Chris
topher was safe for that day from an
evil death. The saint was always por-
trayed of colossal size and is SO paint
ed at the entrance of most Spanish ca
thedrals that all may see him. None of
the many carved figures of this saint
approaches in size one which was re-
moved from Notre Dame at Paris in
1855.
1t was said that st. Christopher's
original occupation was to carry people
across stream. and the legend is that
once a child presented himself to he
conveyed over. AT first his weight was
what might be expected from his in
FAINT years. but presently it began to
increase and so went on till the ferry
man was like to sink under his burden.
The child then said: wonder not, my
friend. am Jesus, and you have the
weight of the sins of the whole world
on your back" Hence st. Christopher
is represented carrying the infant Saw
Jour across a river with the globe in his
hand.

place in the history of Typography in

his figure, supposed to be of date about
1923, being the earliest known example
of that art.

The mistake which commonly opens the
way for an attack by disease is neglect
of the symptoms of stomach trouble.
When eating is followed by undue full
ness, belchings, sour or bitter risings,
etc., disease is attacking the stomach.
The best way to Illustrate such an at
tack is to use DR.. Pierce's Golden Med

stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition, and makes the body
strong and healthy.

HUSTLING FOR BUSINESS.
More or Less of 1t Done In New York
Lawyers Offices.

Get a move on! That's the great
modern motto" said New York law

when / was admitted to the bar"
he went on, there was a great idea of
the dignity of the profession. A law
yer would about as soon have paraded
Broadway carrying a sandwich sign
calling attention to his legal ability as
he would have thought of hustllng in
any other way for business. The thing
to do was to rent an office and sit in it
until somebody came and dug you out
of the dust and spider webs and asked
you to take a case.
1.-The march Of progress has changed
all that. Every law firm in this city
hustles for business. l don't mean
that the big men of the firm chase
around after clients. OF course they
don't But the firm does a lot of
shrewd planning ahead. 1t schemes in
q particular fashion of its own to widen
it's sphere of usefulness-to itself.
"Of late years one Of the expedients
adopted has been the taking into the
firm Of young college graduates who
can give a reasonable guarantee that
they will bring business. College men
know of this custom, and many of
them shape their life at the university
accordingly. They are after friends.
They want to be popular. They want
to be able to swing as much Of the
future legal business of their fellow
graduates as they can.
"a chap who can bring business of
that sort is taken in on good salary
even when he Is the veriest tyro at
law. He's expected, of course, to do
what real work he can and to study
hard. But the salary is for the pull he
can exert over his fellows."- York

snails as window Cleaners.

can old colored woman selling snails,"
says the Philadelphia Record, coca
sionally makes her appearance in South
street, and sometimes she may also be
found along Front street or Second
street, up in the district that used to be
known as the Northern Liberties. She
carries an old basket in which the snails
repose on freshly sprinkled leaves.
These are not sold as food, but for
cleaning the outside of window panes-
an old practice still in vogue in Ken
sington. The snail is dampened and
placed upon the glass, where it at once
moves around and devours all insects
and foreign matter, leaving the pane as
bright and clear as crystal. There are
old established business place in Ken
sington where the upper windows, when
cleaned at all, are always cleaned by
snails. There Is also a fine market for
snails among the owners of aquariums,
as they keep the glass clean and

One-third of the area of Canada is
practically unknown. There are more
than 1,25O,OO0 square miles of unex-
plored lands in Canada. The entire
area Of the Dominion is computed at
3,450,257 square miles; consequently
one-third of this country has yet been
untraveled by the explorer. Exclusive
of the inhospitable detached arctic por-
tons, $4,000 square miles are for all
practical purposes entirely unknown.
Most Of this unknown area is dis
tributed in the western half of the Do
minion in impenetrated blocks of from
$4,000 to 100000 square miies-that Is,
areas as large as the states of Ohio,
Kansas or New England are yet a
