Rev. ]. Campbell Morgan, the noted
English preacher, was obliged to sus-
pend the religious services he was con-
ducting one evening in New York by
an invasion OF mosquitoes from the Jer-
sey shore, relates a New York exchange.

Dr. Daniel Curry. for many years ed
itor Of the Christian Advocate, and a
man Of peculiarly sardonic humor at
his own expense, dealt with the situa-
ton, one Sunday night when the New
Jersey 'varmint" was doing a land Of
fee business at the grove.
Dr. Curry was discoursing from a
text IN the Book Of Revelation and had
grown warm with theme and action.

he approached the high levels OF his ar

to St. John the revelator.

sage with the sentence from the apoco-
lyptic vision: And ! heard the voice
Of harpers harping with their barps. :"

the insect out of misery with a resound-

THE FRIENDLY SKY.
Life II Brings continu-
Gus Relief.

Il never knew there was so much sky
in the worldl" exclaimed little girl
carried from a. gloomy tenement house
in Boston for month Of country life
in the foothills OF the White mountains,
according to Youths Companion.
It is not alone the child from the slums
who never sees the sky. Many busy
housewife works in kitchen the win
dcws Of which open on a wide horizon,
and yet does not realize the value that
would be set by the prisoner of paved
streets and high walls Of the view which
she scarcely regards from season to sea-
son.
Whoever lives within sight Of the sky
should be friends with It. Field and for
est and mountain and river become fa-
miliar faces. Ocean and sky are ever
changing. Clouds. color, depth. distance
vary from hour to hour. To the restless
spirit longing for variety in a monot-
onous existence. the sky offers a con-
tfnuous relief To the man or woman
oppressed by the crowding life Of the
bustling world, the sky brings eaceand
the sense Of large, untrammel spaces.

eleven months of the past year, 7,40S
vessels were reported as arrivals. with a
net registered tonnage Of 71,443,6l7 net
tons. and 1899 clearances of 72,21b, ,099
net tons These figures apply exclusively
to coastwise trade; that is, to trade be-
tween domestic ports only. and do not
include tonnage employed In the lake
trade between Canada and the United
States.
There are twenty individual ports on the
Great Lakes having each a registered tom
mage Of arrivals ranging from 100000 to
over 100000 tons. On Lake Superior
four different ports had combined ton
mage of 4,35S, ,972 net TONS of which Duluth
is credited with 1911 ,434 tons: Superior
West Superior, 4,087,139 tons; Two Har-
bors. S,123,S53 tons, and Ashland, 2,l71.-
546 tons. Lake Michigan has seven ports
which fall within this class, agsrega ting
1878, 1872 tons of arrivals. OF these, Mil
waukee stands at the head with 4.622593
tons. Next in order comes Chicago, with
4,37O, ,63S tons. followed by Escanaba, with
2,914,256 tons, whose freight corgoes con-
sist very largely Of ore shipments to the
manufacturing districts Of the lower lakes.
South Chicago has a tonnage of 1928, 479
tons, and If included in that of Chicago,
the combined tonnage would exceed the
registered tonnage of any other lake port
by more than 100000 tons. Next in
order. on Lake Michigan, come Ludding-

The enormous volume Of this move

the coast frontage. New York, during
the entire calendar year 1902, IS credited
with 8,9S2,767 registered tons of arrivals,
and 3.S16.291 tons of clearances, J, Lon
don, for 1901, had entrances amounting to

Hongkong reported S,626,614 tons entering,
and S.620. 400 tons clearing In 1900.
The largest crop of lake ports within
the million-ton class Is to be found on
the lower lakes between Detroit and Buff
falo nine ports on this portion Of the
lake coast aggregating a registry Of
rivals OF 22,S65,772 tons. At the head Of
this list stands Cleveland, with 5.0s7, ,565
