Sir Edward Clarke, the noted Eng

young lawyer once scored OF him.
Late one afternoon case in which
Sir Edward was interested was called,
whereupon he asked that It be put Off
until the following morning, as he had
been arguing a ease In another court
all day and was much exhausted. The
request was granted and the next case
called. The young lawyer then asked
FOR postponement Of this case also,
saying he was too much exhausted

doing. III Il please the court was tho

True Success.

The man whose life, outward!y all de.
feat, is steadily expanding in its interest
and sympathies. steadily growing in power
to bear and suffer and be strong, has the
blessed consciousness Of coming into his
kingdom No outward disaster, no exter.
nal obstacle or limitation, can ever defeat
a true life: the soul can escape all these
things as the bird escapes the perils of the
snare and the net by flying. above them
This highest success lies within the grasp
of every earnest man or woman, and it Is
rarely without attestation of its presence
and value. even in the eyes OF those who
take small account of spiritual things.
There is force which streams from no
bic nature which is irresistible and perva'
sive as the sunlight. The warmth and VI
tality of such natures, while they lnvigor.
ate the strongest men and women about
them, penetrate to the heart OF clouded
and obscure lives and minister to their
needs. There is no success SO satisfying as
that which is embodied in ones character
and being so embodied, cannot be taken
from him, and the influence of which, re-
acting on the character of others, is also
ructable.-Christian Union.

kbIutions of Certain Ants.

A naturalist has been making Ger
tain observations, on the toilets OF
certain ants. and has discovered each
insect goes through most elaborate
ablutions. They are not only per
formed by herself, but by another,
who acts for the time as lady's maid.
The assistant starts by washing the
face of her companion, and then goes
over the whele body. The attitude Of
the ant that is being washed is one Of
intense satisfaction. She lies down
with all her limbs stretched loosely
out; she rolls over on her side, even
her back, a perfect picture OF ease.
The pleasure the little insect eviuces
in being thus ecqnbed and sponged
is really enjoyable to the observer.

He Knows Best.

The outward features of our lie may not
be all that we should choose them to be;
there may be things We wish for that never
come to us; there may be much we wish
away that We cannot part, from. The per-
sons with whom we live, the CIRCUMSTANCES
by which we are surrounded, the duties we
have to perform, the burdens we have to
bear, may not only be other than what we
should have selected for ourselves, but may
even seem inconsistent with thai, forma-
ton and discipline of character which we
honestly wish to promote. Knowing us
better than we know ourselves, fully un,
derstanding how greatly We are affected

to our entire and final, not only our I'M

Rridoe and Tunnel Combination.

Since a French engineer named
Gamond planned a submarine tunnel,
in 1857, various projects have been
advanced for connecting England
with the Continent. The latest is
the suggestion of Bunau-Varilla, who
wants to build a tunnel to within
three kilometers of England, and
thence bridge, which England
(which has not favored a tunnel)
could destroy at any time in case OF
CANCER of a foreign invasion, thus
rendering the tunnel useless.

BATHS OF RADIANT HEAT.
Pain Banished by Electric Light
Treatment.

Pain Banished by Electric Light
Treatment.
A heat and light treatment which
has caused much comment lately
among scientists, says the London
Express, is the Dowsing system, that
consists chiefly in directing electric
heat rays on the body Of the person
subject for treatment. The system
IS used in cases Of rheumatism, gout,
sciatica, lumbago and similar Chs
eases and certain forms of lubercular
troubles. These rays are claimed to
be the nearest approach to the suns
rays obtainable by artificial means.
The great advantage peculisr to this
treatment lies in the ability OF the
electric rays to penetrate the body
going direct to the part or parts OF
the trouble. To undergo this treat
ment the person is first placed upon
q bed, after removing all clothing,
and wrapped snugly in the covers,
with the head only outside. The
rays are then turned on, and the sub
iect is literally bathed in heat. The
patient by this system is subjected
to a temperature of 800 or 400 de-
grees. The person does not expert
ence any discomfort, Notwithstanding
this great heat. Ordinary heat OF
this high intensity would do the hu-
man body to turn, but these electric
rays, being dry, evaporate the excret-
ed perspiration. This method just
mentioned is for general treatment
For LEGAL complaints there are de-
tached refectors, which are held q
little away from the affected part 80
that the heat plays upon the place
and searches out the disease. The
Dowsing system has also been used
with some success in the treatment
Of tubercular joints, and it is believ-
ed if the heat rays could be made to
penetrate the patients lungs they
would kill the bacillus Of consump-
ton. An apparatus of this charac-
ter has been installed in Buckingham
Palace, for the use Of the King and
when Mr.. Chamberlain was suffering
from a recent attack Of gout this
treatment was resorted to with sue
cess.

Insane Witnesses.

In a case involving the manage

eral former inmates wee called as
