not the largest pearl oyster bed ever
found among the western islands, but
it was by long odds the richest. No

heaviest and largest shells ever seen
by fishermen or traders came out OF
that bed. AT that depth Of water 1t
was no trick at all to bring up the

which weighed eight pounds was taken

finest ever placed on the market.

Portuguese and Italians are the only
nations who possess an undesirable
element? I am certain that even
among the race to which Senator Hoar
belongs there must be some who are
not perfect; yet he mentions them not.
for fear that We should hold them in
less esteem. Since every nationality
is possessed of a certain number of il
Eterates, the Portuguese people were
incanSed at his unjust discrimination
The fact is that Senator Hoar should
have been less specific. He should have
spoken of nations in general, and not
Of Portuguese and Italians in particu-
lar.
The Portuguese people have always
held Senator Hoar in high esteem. but
they were deeply grieved at his ap-
parently serious mistake. although his
explanation shows that it was not in
ertionaI. Since he disclaims all in
tention Of giving offense we are only
too glad to forgive him.

Art In Telling Lies.

Telling the truth is an art, but
not nearly so difficult an art as tell
mg lies. 1t is within reach of any
mans power, if he will take time
and pains, to relate the thing that
u.s.. 1t takes a man of Imagination
and strong memory to bring forth
the thing that is not. Besides, the
liar cannot carry his lie all over the
world and back to the creation. At
some point or other he must piece it
on to the universal truth, and to do
that neatly he must be good work
man. But this is only part of the
greater question as to vice and yir-
tue generally. Virtue is for all who
love it. In order to become an ac-
Complished villain a man must have
natural aptitude, careful training
and immense powers Of application,
and at any time the villain may be
ruined as villain by the unexpect-
ed coming to life of conscience

but, finding no cat there, returned
to the front again.
Keeping its eyes fixed steadily on
its image, it began feeling behind
the glass with its paw, first in one

BE Treated.

Re Treated.
A stv is a little abscess at the
edge of the eyelid. There are gener-
ally far more pain and swelling than
are proportionate to the seriousness
Of the case. 1t is the result of the
plentiful supply of blood vessels to
the eyehd and the closeness Of its
texture which cause great pain in
che process of swelling. The little
abscess is red and very tender, and
usually in a few days it bursts and
discharges matter unless treatment
can be carried out early and ener-
geticaIly enough to arrest the. in
fammation. AS soon as the sty
has opened the pain and swelling
subside. Sites point to some de-
rangement in health. They occur
in people who have a predisposition
to them or who are long sighted and
have been overusing their eyes, or
they may come on after exposure
to cold wind. They are very apt to
occur one after the other for several
weeks.
At the very beginning Of the at
tack the application of something
cold, such as ice wrapped in bit
Of oil silk, laid over the eye, may cut
short the Inflammation. But ex-
oept at the very earliest stage this
cannot be done, and the best treat

personal sense of righteousness be
cause of another's wickedness. or the
minifying OF his own goodness. Char
ity is quite as rare as wisdom, but
when it does appear it is known by its
patience and endurance.
When under the protection of State
or United States laws, good citizens are
arrested for mansiaughter because one
out of three of their patients. having
the same disease and in the same fam
lily, dies while the others recover. we
naturally turn to Divine Justice for
support, and wait on God. Christian
Scientists should be influenced by their
own judgment in the taking of a case
of malignant disease, they shculd con-
slider well as to their ability to cope
with the case-and not, overlook the
fact that there are those lying in wait
TO catch them in their sayings; neither
should they forget that, in their prac-
tice, whsthcr successful or not, they
are not specially protected by law The
