Traips.,

Some of the institutions OH Japanese
trains are peculiar to that country.
One of these is a smear of paint across
the windows of third-class carriages.
This is made necessary because thous-
ands of native travellers in Japan, ac-
customed only to paper wall for let
ting in light, have 10 knowledge OF
glass. Its utter transparency leads
them to believe that the window is
simply a hole i'll the side of the car.
With painful results many native pas.
sengers have stupidity attempted to
stick their heads through the glass.
The square of paint takes its place
with the Don't blow out the gas,

Killing Weeds.

Killing weeds by spraying is now
practiced in France. A five per cent.
solution of sulphate of copper has been
found destructive Of wild mustard and
some other weeds, without injuring
grain crops. 1t is probable that it will
not injure certain kinds of weeds.
Spraying has been found of advantage
in France, however, in destroying
weeds, the cost being about ~ per
acre. 1t is doubtful il such a measure
Will eve be adopted in this country
as the harrow, %cultiyator, weeder and
hoe can be used more effectively where
crops are cultivated in rows, and wen
If weeds are growing on broadcasted
plots it is probably cheaper to pull the
weeds out than to spray.

1t is necessary to lay stress upon the

The Only way.

The Bible teaches MS to believe Gods
revelation of Himself on the authority
of those who have tested it and found
it true and on the authority of its evil
dent goodness; ard to test its truth by
our own experience and so gain per-
sonal assurances that it is Gods truth.
This is evidently the only way in which
we can hope to arrive at defniteness
of knowledge with regard to God or or

Men are righteous, men are bad.
According to the meal you've had.
Pursuing things we think will bless,
We lose the blessings we possess
How can life be reckoned sweet
BY him whose new shoes pinch his
feet?
Whether the world is kind or cold
Depends upon the job you hold.
Seek not to gain the peaceful life
If no fair gems bedeck your wife.
Toiling's useless or worth while
According to your store of bile.
The futures drear and dark or bright
To match the dreams you had last
