wireless. telegraph, on Mouuta,p.

French engineers have lately made
successful tests OF wireless tcleRraphy
between the lofty ob~scryatorics on
the crown Of Mont Blanc and the VAL
ley Of ChamoniN. II had been feared
that the absence Of moisture In the
frozen surface might interfere with
the earth connection. but no such
trouble WAS experienced. The only
difficulty arose when the alternating
current dynamos Of the electric light
system In Chamonix were at work. AZ
such times the wireless messages
could not he transmitted nor received.

ALUM, FLINT AND
SULpHURIC ACID.

II is reported that In many localities
houses are infested by peddlers trying
TO sell or introduce so-called 'cheap'
or low-priced baking powders, either
directly OF by ar order upon a grocer.
In most instances deception is used.
and It is claimed that the article is a
genuine baking powder and has all tho
merits OF n pure article.
H~ousekecpers should be on their
guard against this danger to their food.
Alum powders are almost always low
priced. But they are well known to be
detrimental TO health. In England and
In some sections Of this country their
sale Is prohibited by law. Congress
has forbidden the sale OF food contain
Ing alum In the District Of Columbia.
The highest authorities condemn their
use. DIR. s. w. Johnson. for instance,
Professor OF Chemistry a Yale Col
lcgo. says: Bread made with n bak.
Ing powder containing alum must
yield a soluble alumina salt with the
gastric juice. and must, therefore. act
as a poison"
II is we'll known that these so-cnlled
cheap" goods are made from alum or
the very cheapest materials. One OF
them was recently analysed Mt Yale
College and found to be one-quarter
sharp pointed grains OF ground lint.
Others are filled with sulphuric acid,
and salts OF lead are also found In
them.

JUDICIAL DECISIONS

A judgment or decree in enforcement
Of pre-existing lien is not the judg-
ment denounced by the provisions OF
section 67b Of the bankrupt act, which
is plainly confined to judgments Great
ing liens. Metcalf VS.. Barker (Sup. CT,
U. s., 8 Am. r. r. 36.
The exemption Of persons who 60
from house to house or place to place
vending their own products from the
payment Of license tax imposed by
statute on peddlers. is held, in Rosen-
bloom VS.. State (Neb). 81 l. .R. A. 922,
not to render the act invalid as in vio-
lation Of the uniformity clause of the
constitution.
While the lien created by judgment
creditors bill is contingent in the
sense that it may possibly be defeated
by the event Of the suit, yet in itself
and so long as it exists, it is charge,
a specific lien on the equitable assets
Of the judgment debtor, and is not sub
ject to being divested save by payment

| A statute making contract for the

mined by the local laws. notwithstand-
ing the notes are payable at the domi-
cile of the corporation. if it has local
lied its business by establishing boards
throughout the State, to which pay
ment OF loans are to be made.
The construction to be drawn from
the language of section 6Ib Of the bank
rupt act is that it is the lien created by
a levy or a Judgment, or an attachment
or otherwise that is invalidated, and
that where the lien is obtained more
than four months prior to filing of the
petition In bankruptcy, it is not only
not to be deemed null and void on adj
Indication. but its validity is recog-
niZ d: when the lien is obtained within
the four months period. the property

are SO grimly tremendous, so self-sum
cient, that man bitterly resents the feel.
ing that he is a pitiful pigmy unable to
fret their hugeness.
1t is not the great panoramic view
from the summit that appeals to the
thousands who climb the high peaks
every year. 1t is simply the game-t.he
hand to hand struggle with savage ma
ture. The stories of accidents thrill the
tourist with horror and make him long
to stand on the very spot where some
shocking disaster occurred. The tales
Of the frightful storms at high altl-
tudes, Of the fearful avalanches, of the
falling rocks, Of plunges into crevasses,
of laborious cutting of ice steps, Of the
climbing around lodges with only Il
finger and toe hold over precipice
from which one can look down thou
sands of feet, the nights spent on the
snow on the mountain side, stories OF
frost bite, Of hours of intense toll, these
things merely spur him on.
Some of the hair-breadth escapes Of
mountain climbers are almost incredi-
BILE. Men have managed to throw them
selves under sheltering ledge while
a rock thundered over them. They have
lain SO for an hour or more, listening
to the mighty cannonading.
One awful catastrophe marks the first
ascent of the Matterhorn in 1865. For
years the terrible peak had batt1ed all
efforts to scale It, Edward Whymper,
a noted climber, had made six unsuc-
cessful attempts before he succeeded.
In his party were Charles Hudson, the
most accomplished climber of his time;
Lord Francis Douglas, another famous
climber; Mr.. Hadow and three guides
two Taugwalders and the great Mi.
chael Croz. They reached the summit;
| but early in the descent Mr.. Hadow
became exhausted. CroZ had to place
the young Englishman's feet in the ice
steps. He slipped, struck Croz in the
back, and both fell. The strain on the
rope dislodged Lord Francis Douglas,
and Mr.. Hudson was dragged after
him. Mr.. Whymper and the Taugwal-
ders braced themselves. and the jerk
came as on one man. The rope parted
above old Peter Taugwalder. and the
four fell from precipice to precipice tc

THE MINISTER'S "SHAY."

Caused the Puritan Clergyman Long
itebate with His Coincidence.
The diary of Puritan minister who
was settled in Maiden. Massachusetts,
nearly two hundred years ago shows
a scrupulous regard for his sacred call
ing. TO his view it was all right for
a person to keep Il horse. but he had
his doubts about the keeping of Il ear
riage 1t might argue woildliness.
The following entries show how he
debated the question with himself and
how his point of view shifted.
January 3l.-Hought Il shay for f27
los. The Lord grant it may he Il com
fort and blessing to my family.
March 17.-Had a safe and comfort
able journey to York.
April 24.-Shay overturned. with my
wife and me in it; yet neither of us
much hurt. Blessed be our generous
Preserver. Part of the shay, as it lay
upon one side, went over my wife,
and yet she was scarcely anything
hurt How wonderful the prcserva-
ton!
May 5.-Went to the Beach with
three of the children. The beast be-
ing frightened, when we were all out
of the shay, overturned and broke it.
l desire it Il hope desire IT'D that the
Lord would teach me suitably to re-
pent this Providence, and make suit
able remarks on it, and to be suitably
affected with it. Have l done well TO
get me shay? Have l not been proud
or too fond of this convenience! DO
exercise the faith in the divine care
and protection which l ought to do?
Should l not be more in my study and
less fond of diversion? Do not with
! hold more than is meet from pious and
charitable uses!
May 15.-Shay brought home; mend
ing cots 80 shillings. Favored in this
beyond expectation.
May 16.-My wife and l rode to
Rumney Marsh. The beast frightened
several times.
June 4.-Disposed of my shay to Rev
Mr.. White.
