SCIENCE NOT FOR MEN.

There is knowledge which is heav- enly, knowledge which is human, and a knowledge which is diabolic; there is a knowledge which is blessed and a knowledge which is accursed. The first is ennobling and elevating. and lifts man toward God. The second is debasing, degrading, and drags meit toward the pit. The knowledge gained by roofing amid the groans and agonies of living creatures, whom their Maker and ours put into our power, to teach us mercy, as He gives mercy, to us. is demons could Seek for it, and 1t can turn to no human good. t.Science' 50 gained is not for men. but for deviIs.--- Bishop Hugh Miller Thompson in Sue cess.

 Lanterns down here?" Burton re- peated.
 Yes, sir. I hung em myself. They're covered lanterns we used for the anchor watch"
 Burton felt for his matchbox and opened it. "I've got just one match" he said.
 That's enough, if it don't go back on us."
 It was an anxious moment when Bur- ton scratched the match; but it did not go back on them. Not food, but drink, was what they first sought by the lan- terms light, and after two hours of hunt ing and hard labor they found biscuit box and case of mineral water-the two almost side by side. Were all right, now, sir" said the sailor, joyously. "We can stand it till they have to come down after some thin'"
 Yet the hours that followed were very tedious, and when they had heightened out to two days or more, officer and man grew heartily sick of confinement.
