Henry Loomis Nelson, in his article
in the May Century, on Washington
society. tells these anecdotes OF the
capital as representative Of the light
and shade of official life:
Madame" said an old diplomat at
his own table, Il have some bonbons
here from Paris. They have medal
lions of the potentates of the world.

One day a delighted and awkward
new statesman was taking tea at the
house OF a clever woman, and was
suddenly plunged into terror. agony
and shame by the humiliation OF the
delicate and costly Sevres cup from

church in the south. The bishop went
there to preach. AS he was runnin1
over his sermon in the vestry, walk
ing up and down, a dog got in through
the door and began to bark and SNAP
at his gown. The bishop stood It for
q while and then opened the door and
thrust the little meddler out into the
night. In a few minutes the bishop
went into the auditorium of the
church. Before him wound spiral
flight of stairs, leading up into an old
fashioned pulpit. high above the con-
gregation. The bishop had just an
nounced his text and was launching
forth into his sermon, when he heard
below him a pit pat like the sound
of the feet OF an approaching animal.

New Use for Refined Paraillne Wax.

A new and important use for
Refined Paraffine Wax seems to
have been discovered by a promi-
nent resident of Ohio, living near
Lancaster, who had two trees
badly damaged by storm, one be-
ing a maple and the other an
apple. In each case large limb
was broken down from the trunk,
but still attached to it. The
limbs were proped up and fasten-
ed securely with straps, very
much as a broken leg might be
fastened with splints, and then
melted refined wax poured into
and over all the cracks. The
surgical operation" was entirely
successful. The Paraffine pre-
vented the escape of the sap,
kept out the rain and moisture
which would have rotted the
trees, prevented the de-
predations of insects, and the
limbs seem thus far to be per-
tectly re-attached to the trees.

Is the power of God less than
it was 1900 years ago, asked the
the speaker? No. The power
of God has not been shown. He
has the same power he always
had. His ways are above our
ways. His wisdome can not be
questioned by fruite mind. 1t is
not necessary that God should
lead his people in a pillar of cloud
by day and pillar of fire by
night as he did the Israelites.
Nor has he since Moses time
spoke from Mount Sinai. He
deals differently with his people
now. His power has been COM
pletely demonstrated. The di-
vinity of Christ is conceded.
His mission completed. The
plan of salvation fully revealed.
Upon the cross he declared it was
finished. No more miracles were
necessary. No more talk face to
face required. His inspired wit
nesses have recorded it all. No
more Moses, no more prophets,
no more John the Baptist, no
more Mesiahs on earth, No
other plan of redemption.
"There is none other
under heaven given among men
whereby we must be saved. 50
| Although Moses and the prophets
and the day of miracles have gone.
Christ has not left us comfortless.

The sum of gold now in the
United States treasury exceeds
that of any previous time in the
history of the country, and with
one possible exception it exceeds
that of any other country at any
time in the history of the world.
The single reported exception is
that of Russia about eight years
ago, when the country was pre-
pairing to resume gold payments.
Then Russia is said to have
had in its treasury $500, 900, 600
in gold. The vaults of the Uni
ted States treasury contain S573,
936, 1874, an increase since July /,
1901, of 1906, 1893. This stock
OF gold is now being added to at
the rate of from $500, 900 to $780,
600 day, with no prospects of a
recession in the rate of deposits.
This condition of things is emil
nently satisfactory to the treas
ury officials, who regard it as the
best possible evidence of prosper
ity and of confidence in the finan-
cial stability of this country.

David Mercer was renominated
for congress last Saturday having
won with good majority over
the opposition of the Bee. This
should end the fight. Any per-
son has the right to oppose the
candidacy of any aspirant of his
party before the convention.
But good government and party
success demand that the majority
should rule. Mercer has made a
good record and as the Bee claims
he may have made some mistakes.
Who base not in the past eight
years. There is nothing for the
Bee to gain politically or fnanc-
tally to continue the fight.
Whatever may be said against
Mercer there is one thing that
may be said in his favor that
ough weighs all else. He is a
republican and will support Presi-
dent Roosevelt in his views of
reciprocity and all other national
questions for which the republi-
can party and the administration
scontending. The continued pros
perity of the country depends on
the success of these issues and
because of that the Bee and every
republican should lay aside per-
sonal prejudice and give the
party's nominees their united
Support.
