RANDOM THOUGHTS.

The lavishness Of natures effort is
as marvellous as its diversity. Though
myriads of flies are doomed to des-
truction by men and birds, nature goes
on patiently giving to each fly its
wonderfully fine structure. Nature
fights against the disappearance of
any species and expends itself in ten
thousand times ten thousand fruitless
efforts rather than send forth one in
dividual incompletely equipped for the
struggle. Tie wasted labor causes
nature no regret If the species surviv-
es. All the insect tribes now slumb-
ering in winters stupor show this
recklessness of creative energy. Some
how this leads to the old-time remain
der of human dignity, Are ye not of
more value than many sparrows ?" If
their protection is a never-ending task
of nature, will not the same kindness
and tenderness be over us

We should never grow restive il the
task we are doing is an honorable one.
The world is wide and the world is
great, and its tremendous forward en-
ergies, like the current of Niagara. are
made up of an infinite number of con-
tributions, each small but in their
grand total immense and majestic.
The greatest contributor of human
progress is not necessarily he who is
most blessed and esteemed in cir
cumstanccs and be who out of tempta-
tions lifts himself up to unselfish duty,
and seeing it before him, does it ab-
solutely TO the best of his ability II
farming is before US as duty, let it be
well done. If the dreary round of Off
ce work is before US, wearing the very
life out of with its constant beat OF
repetition, let that be well done, but
let our hearts never sink beneath the
routine but be lifted up above it into
kinship with all that Is beautiful and
forward in the world. If modern lab
or with its specialized tasks holds US
as rigidly against the repeated round,
eveh as the cutter of turning lathe
can do nought else but cut, hope need
not die out. The work we are doing
is part of the worlds work: we are
making a little trickling contribution
to its great stream, and we are work
ing, essential to it. This sense of kim
ship and duty can glorify every diH'
cult corner in life's vast field of en-
dcavOr.

Let us not fear for results If we are
doing what we can. /. huences in the
world are SO complex that no one can
claim as his own any great piece of
work. The engine that thunders along
the railroad track is the composite of
hundreds of workers. some of them as
remote from it as the diggers of iron
ore and the miners of coal. The great
building that pierees the city SKY and
puts the tower of Babel to shame, calls
for exertion in a hundred different
places, separated sometimes by thous-
ands of miles, but all of them needed
to the complete work. The very
breakfast table that will be set to

blind, unthiuking contributors to youl

Each year sees the domain of human
knowledge spreading, until each year
it seems rs though the very limit of
knowledge had been gained. Yet
pioneers of science and discovery never
fail to push forward again the bound
aries beyond the point last attained.
Human knowledge reminds Us of a
mountain ascent; the more the climber
yet higher place on the mountain side
will show him more yet TO be seen, and
when the mountain top is attained, a
balloon ascent would again bring more
and more into sight; yet should he
even rise to the height of one of the
stars he never could see the whole
truth as the world shows it. At least
half of vision would be impossible. So
il these discoveries like wireless tele-
graphy, the powers of radium, Roent-
gen rays, argon, and discoveries in
astronomy aud in mechanics, the alb
solute limit of knowledge is never at
tained, and back of it all, no matter
how great and marvellous the conquest
of natures secrets, still turks unseen
by science the great power that car
explain every thing, that created every
thing aud that must be greater thar
the works of His might. The further
est pioneer of knowledge still falls
down in reverence before the woud-
rous power hidden behind all Hi
works. He still remains the invisible
half. no matter how high we may go.

Kills Inside Germs

The greatest value of Liquesone lies la the fact
that 1t Hills germs In the body without killing the
tissues too There Is nothing else known which
will do that. Any drug that Kills germs Is a
poison and it cannot be taken internally. For
This reason medicine is Of little effect in germ
trouble, every physician knows.
This problem of killing inside germs is the great
est problem that medical men met. These
germs are the cause of most Of the serious diseases
And the cply way to cure such diseases Is to kill
those germs An internal germlcfde. effective yet
harmless has been sought after more than anything
else in the history Of medical practice.
Liauozone has solved this problem.

FARA IfSEEo To BEHA LABELS.
One Thousand Name Tags to Be Put in
Place in the Local Parks.

For some years efforts have been made
from time to time to secure the labelling Of
the trees in the public parks of this city. in
order that their beauties might be more
fully appreciated by the unscientific. This
movement has been materially accelerated
through the endeavors of subcommit-
tee of the Board of Trade committee
on parks and reservations. of which
Mr.. Albert NJ. Read is chairman at
present, and the following correspond
ence recently passing between him and Col
T. w. Symens, superintendent of public
buildings and grounds. on this subject in
d;cates that practical progress has been
made to that end. On the 9TH of this
month Mr.. Read wrote as follows to Col.
Symons:
II had the honor, as chairman of a sub
committee of the committee on parks and
reservations of the Washington Board of
Trade, to take up with your immediate
predecessor. Col. Theodore Bingham. the
matter of marking the trees in the parks
and reservations of Washington. At the
same time the subject was taken up with
the Agricultural Department and the
thorities at the Capitol. with partial sue
cess. Col. Bingham had at the time no
funds that could be applied to the purpose.
and the matter was dropped SO far as your
department was concerned.
SIS it not possible. now that the trees are
about to take on their spring foliage and
come under general observation OF the pub
lie, that they can be named by suitable
plates or tags? Your attention in this re-
gard is called to the tags in the Capitol
grounds, which are apparently durable as
well as conspicuous. / am sure that the
people of the District as well as visitors to
it, would very highly appreciate the mark
ing of the trees in our principal parks
understand that large number of very
valuable and unique varieties are planted
in Lafayette Square. many of which have
been presented by the rulers OF other coun-
tries to the President of the United States
Under date of April Col Symons replied
as follows, to Mr.. Read
Your letter of the 1th instant. suggesting
that the trees in the parks and reservations
be marked, has been received. In reply,
am pleased to inform you that this office
took steps some time since for marking the
trees as suggested by YOU, and has recent
iy placed ar order with the manufacturers
for 1000 enaneled steel labels containing
the common, as well as the botanical. name
of the trees to be marked When the labels
are received they will be placed on the trees
in the principal parks. and 1t Is hoped. as
funds will admit. to extend the system to
