"Rememher Thnn NInst Die 4,

The weirdest feature of Trapplst life
is the ban Of perpetual silence under
which the monks voluntarily live; and
yet it is not absolute silence, for that
would be well-nigh impossible in such
a large body of active workers. In
the first place, the abbot and the guest
master are permitted to speak with Wis
itors, and the schoolmaster to commun-
icate freely with his pupils; then there
is the famous phrase, "Memento msri"
c'Remember thou must die'D, the ordi-
nary salutatiOn among Trappsts; and,
Furthermore, the voice of all is raised
in prayer and song at chapel, while at
daily chapter meeting each one public
ly confesses every petty fault which
he imagines he has committed, and If
he forget anything which a brother
has noticed he will be charltably re-
minded of It. But even with those ex-
ceptions the rule of silence is a most
trying penance.-Lippincotts. Maya

The German imperial council of

cancer. They show that the num-

surprising that of the population.

more frequently affected than men but

army, is in receipt of several interest

In the collection are two jinjals, which

to carry about the field, and are usually
rested upon parapet. One Of these

and Chicago. excites comparatively little
comment. The most discussed feature of
To twenty hours is the fact that it has
been accomplished at the same time by
two great rival systems. the Pennsylvania
and the New York Central. The Central is
$50 miles long to the Pennsylvania d.
while the former is over a comparatively
level country and the latter is through a
heavy series of heavy grades. Yet on the
westbound run the trains were identical in
their time. having occupied nineteen hours

eastbound run the Central train did the
work one minute faster.
The wonder of it all is the perfection of
the locomotive mechanism and the admin

ting such accuracy of performance. Great
