An obituary of the late Rev. John M. Rankin, published by the Burlington (Kansas) Republican, shows what a busy and versatile man can do. In 1850. in Illinois, MT. Rankin was a newspaper editor. In 1858 he went to Emporia, Kansas, and took up the practice of law. A couple of years later he was elected to the office of prosecuting attorney, and later still he served one term in the legislature. In 1863 he became president of a college at Ottumwa. In 1868 he was principal of the schools in Burlington, and later filled the office of probate judge. About this time he began to study for the ministry, and was licensed as a minis ter of the Christian denomination. Af- ter preaching for three years in Little Rock. Ark, he returned to Burlington and changed his faith to the Episcopal denomination. He was rector of sever al churches in Kansas and then, in 1888, he went to Montana and for two years served as principal in school for girls. In 1890 he returned to Burlington and ever since had been the rector there. He was man of fine character and great mental attainments.

There is some reform. Employes in the White House for a long time have been in the habit of soliciting subscrip- tions from and offering tickets for sale to persons who call at the executive mansion. The custom had become SC general as to be nuisance and an or der has been issued putting stop to the abuse. Messengers and doorkeepers had fallen into the habit of reading newspapers, magazines, etc, while on duty. This also has been ended by the same order.

pr. Bowdler Sharpe of the British Natural History Museum, and one of the greatest living authorities on bird life, has lately returned to England with some rare specimens from the Cayman islands. He proceeded to the West Indies in search of health, and, unable to resist the temptation of ex- ploring, investigated the surrounding coral lagoons. Among the species un- known to the British Museum he brought back alive red-faced Amazon parrot, and of eighteen species alleged to exist in the islands, but unrepresent- ed at South Kensington, he secured ten-not bad work for pleasure trip of few months duration.

A curious Belgian horticulturist, af- ter long series of experiments, con- c1udes that brilliant light favors high coloration of foliage. Trees and shrubs with golden leaves, when poorly illum- inated-that is, through either blue or red glass-became green, or in some cases blanched. In no case did the colored glass have a beneficial effect, most plants, after a months exposure, putting forth smaller leaves, less vivid in coloring. Tn some cases very ap- parent stunting of the plants growth was observable.

An inquiry by Dr. Alfred Wolff into the mysterious cause of cancer has yielded an unexpected conclusion which promises temperance advocates a new and powerful argument. Dr. Wolff discovers that all the districts of high cancer mortality are dis tricts in which beer or cider is largely drunk, Bavaria, for in- stances, heads the list in Germany, and Salsburg in Austria-both great beer drinking provinces. In France, the sta- tistics are still more striking. There is the most marked contrast between the high cancer mortality in beer drinking departments and the low death rate from cancer elsewhere.

there can hold so many virtues"

there can hold so many virtues"
But why should dwell upon these
things? 1t is not to give notoriety
to those who hold 1t in horror. 1t Is
not thus that should be understood.
Here is my object: to render attentive
to the unknown good, and, above all,
cause 1t, to be loved and practiced.
That man is lost who pleases himself
only with that which shines and
strikes the eyes, first, because he ex-
poses himself to see evil everywhere.
and after, because he accustoms him
self to see in good only that which
forces his eyes, and he easily sue
cumbs to the temptation of living for
appearance. Not only must we re-
sign ourselves to obsurity, but we
must love it, if we would not slowly
slide into the rank of the figurantes
In theatre who keep up their man.
ner only under the eyes of the audi
ence and drop to their natural ex-
preston in the wings, forgetting the
restraint imposed upon them while
In front. We are there in the pres
ence of one Of the elements essential
to the moral life. And what we say
is true not only for those whom they
call the humble ones. and whose des-
tiny is to never be noticed. but others.
This is still true and much more so
for the first roles. If you would not
be a brilliant nonentity, dressed in
many variegated colors and decked
with gold lace, but who has nothing
in his stomach, you must fill your first
place in the spirit of simplicity of the
most obscure of your collaborators.
Whosoever values nothing save dur
ing the hours of parade, values loss
than nothing. Have we the perilous
honor of being in sight and marching
in the first rank. then let us maintain
with still greater care the interior
sanctuary of unknown good in our
lives. Let us give the edifice, whose
facade our fellowbeings see, a solid
foundation of simplicity, of humble
fidelity. And then, let us remain near
to strangers by sympathy, and by
gratitude.
1t is to those that we owe all, is it
not? l take as witness all those who
have had in the human domain the
strengthening experience the hidden
SJOlleS Ill llle sui nave IN sustaining
the whole edifice. All those who come
to have a certain recognized and pub
lie value owe it to some humble spirit
ual ancestor, to a few forgotten in
spirers. A small number of good be.
ings, among whom there are often
peasants, women, those who have been
conquered by existence parents as
modest as venerated, persOnify for us
the finest and most noble life Their
example inspires and sustains US.
Their remembrance lie forever inscp-
arabic from our hearthstOne. We see
them in their hours of sorrow, coGr-
ageous and tranquil, and our loads
seem lighter They stand cl Sc
around us an invisible and loved pha-
lanx which hinders us from STUN
bling and losing step in battle. and
every day it proves to us that the
treasure of humanity is the good that
the world does not know.

CHAPTER X.

WORLDLINESS AND HOME LIFE.
In the time of the Second Empire,
there was, in one of our prettieSt SOUS
procedures, in a province at a very
short distance from a flag station fire.
Quented by the Emperor, very re-
spectacle and also intelligent mayor,
whose head became suddenly turned
when he thought that some day the
Chief of State might enter his house.
Until then he had lived in the old pa
ternal home as a son, respecting its
smallest souvenirs. AS soon as this
fixed idea, that he might receive the
Emperor of France. took possession
of his brain. he became another man.
That which had seemed to him suffi-
cient and even comfortable. all that
simplicity loved by his parents and
ancestors, now seemed to him mean,
ugly and despicable. 1t would be i'm
possible to ask an emperor to mount
that old wooden staircase, to invite
him to be seated on one of those old
chairs, to permit him to set his foot on
those superannuated carpets. So the
mayor called architects and masons,
attacked the walls with picks, demol-
ished partitions, and built a salon out
of proportion with the rest of the
house by it's spreading luxury. He
withdrew with his family to some
small rooms, where people and furni-
ture, huddled together in spite of
themselves. were mutually uncom-
Portable. Then having by this idea
emptied his purse and upset his home,
he awaited his imperial guest. Alas!
| hn Of
but the Emperor, never.
The folly of this poor man is not
so rare as we may think They are
mentally unsound who, like him, sac
rifice their interior life to worldliness.
The danger Of a like sacrifice is
more threatening in these more agita-
ted times. Our contemporaries are
constantly exposed to 1t, and a great
number succumb to 1t. How many
family treasures have been thrown
away, clear loss, to satisfy new
styles or worldly ambitions, and the
happiness whose arrival they pretend
ed to be preparing for by these i'm
pious sacrifices is making them wait
still. 1t is to make silly bargain to
deliver the fireside of the family, to
let these good traditions fall into des-
uetude, to abandon the simple domes-
tic customs. The place of the home life
Is such in society, that it suffices only
to enfeeble it for trouble to be felt in
the entire social organism. To en-
JOY normal development this organ
ism needs that it be furnished with
well-tempered individuals, having their
own value and their personal mark.
Otherwise, society becomes a flock of
sheep, and sometimes a flock without
a shepherd. But where will the indi-
vidual find his originality this unique
thing which, united with the distinc-
tive qualities of others, constitutes
the riches and solidity of a home? 1t
can never find them but in the family.
Destroy that constellation of practices
and souvenirs, which make each home
like miniature climate, and you
would dry up the springs of character,
you would cut even the roots of public
spirit.
1t is important to the country that
each fireside be world, profound. re-
spected, communicating to its nom
bers an iuenaceable moral imprint
