The Two Gospels.

Two gospels lie side by side in the New
Testament, There is the gospel Of being
GaS GGsfd tdgs and the % fGGsp Gp of Deng aspu
Gods salvation brought to US, and good
tidings of how we can show mercy unto
others, and bring the massage of salvation
near to them. Beside the parable of the
Prodigal Son stands the parable of the
Good Samaritan. Beside the blessed invi-
tations stand the beatitudes en- service. 1t
is all one gospel of Jesus Christ. but it
comes as two messages unto us. We have
only half the JOY and blessing if we stop
short after hearing the first glad word.
We have the full message when We hear
the lips that whispered "Come unto Me"
saying also "Go yef into all the world.

The Antartic Expedition.

According to a cablegram from Captain!
Colbeck, of the Morning, the relief. ship of
the Discovery, now icebound in the. Ant
arctic, the trans-shipment Of provisions
from his ship to the Discovery had to be
conducted on sledges over eight miles OF
ice, it not being possible to bring the ships
nearer together than this. The unexpected
failure of the provisions on board the Dis
covery has not yet been explained, but it
is clear that the latter will require still an
other supply in order to complete the work
which she set out to accomplish. This will
probably require $4,000 or $4,000 more
than has been allowed for the expenses OF
the expedition.

A ALahnratorY Conner.

Two experiments at Cornell University
recently produced a fairly accurate imita.
ton of a comets tail by using the pressure
of light on extremely minute particles. A
powder consisting of emery and the spores
OF puf-balls was put into a tube from
which the air was exhausted as completely
as possible Then the rays from an arc
light were concentrated on the powder,
and the lighter articles seemed to be
blown out, as if the light repelled them,
which. according to the astronomers, is
the way in which the sun actually produces
the tail of comet.

The Goodness of God.

Which of us darcs to say that he, in
Gods sight, deserves more than he gets.
Which of us, then, can say that God Is

the theology of the Christian religion from
new doctrine respecting God-not absolute
ly so. but still new contrasted with the
teachings of other religions. Everywhere
on the globe men believe in the aid Of
God and in the power of God. The dis

Paganism was not that one called God

one worshiped justice and the other

was of an omnipotent power back Of the

Judaism was that God is righteous God

Coal Company strike OF the soft coal
miners In West Virginia for large ad-
vances In wages will probably go into ef-
feet April l. These miners are not thor
oughly organized, said the Chesapeake
and Ohio man. so the strike will not be-
gin until President Mitchell Of the United
Mine Workers gets out of the hands Of
the anthracite coal commission and can
give his attention to the west Virginia
coal fields.
THE output In West Virginia." he add
ed. is 80 per cent of the total output Of
soft coal in the United States. The strike
will not affect us mere directly. 1t will
:affect US indirectly because the New Eng
land States will then have to draw on
Pennsylvania which supplies the Eastern
cities, for its soft coal, and this will
eventually increase the demand for hard
