Bump of Reverence in Science.

The average man is not en-.

bump of reverence for anything

to cultivate that bump, if he is
to believe all the fairy tales the
modern scientists are telling
him.
About radium, for example.
They say an ounce Of it would
lift all the ships of the British
navy as high as the top of Ben
Nevis-a mountain 4400 feet
high; yet no one ever saw
fragment of radium lift a feath.
err or anything else. They say
the light from radium has a
velocity of more than 100000
miles second; yet no one has
invented au instrument to meas.
ure the velocity of this light,
and it is hardly conceivable
that it can be measured. They
say that this metal has been
giving out energy since the
creation of the world, and will
continue to do so as long as the
world lasts, without apprecia-
BILE loss of weight. Yet no one
has weighed a bit of radium at
intervals of ten years or more,
for it has not been known more
than a few months. Post. Dis.

A Parsons Tale.

AS a relator of incidents and
peculiar happenings, Rev. r. T.
COlboru, of the village of
StOutsville, is a thorough bred
but then parsons have queer
experiences.
He had a feline and as usual
the feline had a family, in fact
with the aid of the parson, she
had two families. The old
mother cat and her kittens were
doing nicely when the parson
found a rabbits nest with seven
little ones with unopened eyes,
in it and brought them to the
house for the cat and kittens,
thinking she would kill them
and learn the kittens to eat.
but to his establishment she
cuddled them and nursed them
rs she did the kittens until they
were large enough to run to
grass and care for themselves.
