Curiosity OF the Stmplon Tunnel.
The engineers digging the wonderful
tunnel that runs through the great
Simplon mountain TO connect Switzer-
land with Italy are experiencing great
diihculues because OF the presence of
boiling water in the mountain. The
water comes from the top of the noun
tain and is heated almost to boiling
point 10y the friction and pressure of
Its percolation through the limestone
beds of the mountain. Before the tun-
mel had been dug very far on the Ital-
ian side the heat became so intense
that IL was impossible TO live in II. The
mountain was piped, and soon $1,000
gallons Of steaming hot water were
flowing out of the south end OF the tun-
mel every minute of the day and night.
The immense flow was harnessed and
made TO drive refrigerating plants and
cold air blowers. Today the tempera-
ture of the tunnel has been reduced
from height that would have roasted
man In minute or two, and the at
mosphere now has the pleasant warmth
of June day. The hot water also
drives pneumatic drills and boring ma
chimes, so that it helps to dig the tun-
mel as well. When completed, the
Simplon tunnel will be the biggest I'm
the world-fourteen miles long, with a
cost of nearly Si.000,0O0 n mile.

The will of the late archbishop Of

when bishops used to amass huge for

slightly more than his income as arch

slave for nearly sixty years, would
have made so little money. His prede-
eessor, Archbishop Benson, left almost
twice as much - viz. f35,OO0, which,
oddly enough, is also the sum left by
Archbishop TAFT. The largest fortune

While in Pittsburg recently DIR. Ber.
tina Caldwell OF India told some good
anecdotes on the doctors of that coun-
try One day she was riding in the
cars with Mohammedan doctor. She
asked him what kind he was-an allo-
pathist, homeopathist or an osteo-
path He answered, II don't know"
DIR. Caldwell asked him how he prac-
uced and what kind OF medicine be
gave. Opening up a box he carried. he
exhibited seven bottles containing na-
uids OF all the colors OF the rainbow.
You See" said the Mohammcdan
doctor, fever makes the patient red.
and then / give him red medicine. A
cold makes him blue, and then 1 ave
him blue medicine. IL he is bilious, he
Is yellow, and then 1 give him yellow
medicine" And thus he went on to the
end. She remarked. you must be a
homeopathist''
Imagine my amusement" said DR..
Caldwell, when, on walking down the
street the next day, saw this sign In
front of the doctors door: "Gee-ul-whiz,
Servant of God. Homeopathist."-

Keep Young In snir,t.

Perhaps Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy Is
right in saying that we ought to ignore
birthdays and give no heed to the pass
ing years. We imagine, however, this is
easier for Christian Scientists to do than
Tor those of us who are so unethereal
as 10 be compelled to face the stubborn
Facts of life. 1t is true, however, that
we ought not to measure age simply
by the year of our birth. One may be
old at twenty-five or young at seventy.

The Mothers Heart.

Henry Ward Beecher once said that
THE mothers heart is the child's school
ROOM" 1t Is more than that; it is the
very heart OF the child's mental, moral
ana spiritual existence. All, woman.
called mother; all, man, called father,
do not say that your humble life in
humble home amounts to naught.
When you rock the cradle, you are
rocking the centuries. Your boys, your
girls, may yet become mighty men and
women for God and for the betterment
or the world, because you are now
starting them right. They may be
preaching and living the love of Christ
among the earth's sinful men long aft
er your earthly work is done and You
have gone to your heavenly reward.
Again, Naasson's life impresses me
with the fact that the greatest OF earth
ly works are accomplished by ordinary
people. Here and there in the long list
OF genealogical names which are re-
corded In the first chapter of Matthew
there is a prominent man, but four
hfths or them-aye, nine-tenths Of them
are names as humble as that of Mas
sons. Thus we find that everywhere
the vast bulk of the worlds work Is
done by the ordinaries and not by the
extraordinaries. Why? Because there
are but few extraordinaries and thou

on millions ordinaries. When you stand
