MOROCCO.

A Country of Fine Possibilities.
 Tn order fairly to consider the ques- tton of Morocco as a commercial cen-
 ter of very considerable importance in
 the future, it is necessary to realize
 some of the natural advantages which
 combine to render this country most
 remarkable one. ' --
 Situated at the extreme northwestern
 limit of the African continent, and
 composing one entire side of the nar-
 TOW entrance to the Mediterranean, the
 Empire of Morocco has been compared
 in form to a triangle, with the city of
 Tangier at it's apex, On the western
 side stretches nearly a thousand miles
 of Atlantic coast line, the other or northerly side borders on the Mediter-
 ranean for a distance of 300 miles, while the Atlas Mountains, extending from the Atlantic straight across the continent, form the base. It is to this chain of mountains, rising to eleya- tions varying from 5000 to 13,O00 feet above the sea level, that Morocco, owes it's rare climatic conditions, which practically combine the productive capacities of a tropical country with
 an equable climate in the temperate zone. The cool, noisture-lade breezes, sweeping over the country both from the broad Atlantic and from the Medi- terranean, are met by this rampant of rock and thrown back in the shape of
 plentiful rain, which circulates in such a. manner as to render the climate a 4l The Atlas Mountains efficiently protect Morocco from the dry burning desert winds and shifting barren sands, which cause such havoc to the lands lying beyond this range. on the Alger- ian side.
 The area of Morocco is. about 300,00C square miles and the estimated native
 Mohammedan population is 10,000,000
 The soil throughout the entire country is for the most part rich and deep and, owing to the unque climatic conditions Is capable of an immense variety of products. The winter rainfall is abund- ant. Seven large rivers, one at least of which could be rendered navigableI with many tributary streams, inter- sect the country, giving an abundant supply of water for perfect cultivation in every part of the land during long, dry summers. With proper attention and development this beautiful land will become a source of vast and varied production and commercial field well worth the attention, of the American man of business; and it may be 5ss well to remark here that the above fact is well recognized on this side of the Atlantic, as the strong internatial
 competition for supremacy in Morocco Twill show.-Consul-G General Philip

Let the machine remain inactive a while and the coat ing formed by the corrosion sooa cow CTS the bright metal and the parts be- come stiff and cranky A man neglects the working parts of his body. Normally these parts should be exercised. He indulges his mem bers in idleness. Whatever vitality and working force they have had when in continued use, neglect causes the ma chinery to run stiffly. It is the rust. A man may neglect to exercise his working brain forces. He may have ever so quick a mind, but if he does not use his mental machinery the rust of idleness is soon over 1t.
 A man may neglect to use the normal forces that are in him. There is a weak ening somewhere. The machine lets down. And soon the parts are rusted. When the primary or the convention or the ballot box, working parts of government, are neglected, the rust collects. The machinery works poorly. It may break down.

sToRK WITH A WOODEN LEG,


 When I was a boy lived on a farm near Leipzig, German" said Fred Buddenbaur1. "Storks were numerous and were regarded as pets. They are ungainly, long legged birds that al- ways build their nests, on the tops of houses or in trees nearby. Many farmers put old wagon wheels on the tops of building or on broken off trees, and on these the storks build their nests.
 Don't know how the cushion origi- mated, but it was quite common twenty-five years ago. The storks have a peculiar way of snapping their long bills, making 8 sound like the clicking of ninistrers bones They use the same nests year after year, making repairs each spring when necessary
 Speaking of their nests reminds me of a story read some time ago about a pair of storks that had been basely deceived by a boy who put goose eggs in their nests in place of their own eggs. When the eggs matched the storks clicked their bills in amazement for two days. Then they flew to the river, where court of all storks in the vicinity was held. The court prob ably, sentenced the mother or hatcher of the goslins to death, for her body was found floating on the water the next day.
 "A stork with 8 wooden leg used to be#a novel sight in a village near Leip- zig. The birds leg was broken when it was young. An inventive genius made a wooden leg for it and the bird was able to walk almost as well as if 1t had two sound legs. It never at tempted to fly away, and was long the villege pet. If a strange dog became too inquisitive the stork would cuff it with it's wings and the dog would slink away. The stork can strike a power full blow with it's wings, and they are its only means of defense. ."-Indian- apolis News.

to join our ranks and come to our meet ing. Men and women many women, we
 marched through that drizzling rain, headed by two Salvation Army bands, till our procession was almost as long as our route. It was then I saw my respectable white-hafred old gentle men coming out of saloons, as laso I did myself, with a drunkard on each arm. Then I saw the good women of my church walking arm in arm with their fallen sisters to the meeting.
 And what. a rneeting! Seven hum dred men, all under the influence of drink, sitting together in the bodW of the church, Sing you say? They did sing. never heard so grand a volne of sound. They sang 'Resueue the Perishing and understood every word they sang. Keeping at 1t they sang themselves sober with the dear old Cos pei songs. Then the inquiry meeting till long after, midnight. Names and addresses were taken. Later re- ceived some into my church, as also did surrounding churches, but our aim was not so much to make church mem bers of these outsiders, as call them, as to make them better husbands and better wives, better mothers and better fathers, better sons and better daugh- ters-and we succeeded, just as similar work for Christ here and everywhere always will succeed. <-.
 Our work among the fallen women was to get them into homes as servants or into refuges, or some places where they would be cared for by Christian women, and built up in bodily health as a necessary prelude to building them up in spiritual health. Here must pay just tribute to what consider the two most noble and most practical agencies for good among us. I refer to the Salvation Army and the sftehhoods of the Roman Catholic Church. Never once were my daughters, whose work was entirely among fallen women, or myself, refused when we took an unfor- tunate to one of their refugees to be cared for. The dear sisters would say: We are sorry our houses is so full; we are sleeping on the floor ourselves, but bring her in bring her irl And so 1t was with the Salvation Army yal- ways willing.

 Merger.
 The stock market was strong yester- day, and railroad stocks, as well as in- dustrials, advanced.
 All the leading railroad shares ad- vanced promptly, with Union Pacific again a leader.
 After the news was out as to the president attitude with regard to rail- roads the railroad shares recovered and rose.
 Nothing radical or subversive was fouud in the message, and the fright, if there was any, subsided. l There was one shadow on the situa- tion-the rise in call money rates-and in view of the rise to 15 per cent. the markets strength was surprising. Some attributed this to the fact that very l ElCn OpEIdlOI6 were dL lIlG IlS4AAA' Call money advanced slowly to F per cent, then fell back to and shot up to 15 near the close.
 The only effect of this rise in money was to abate the markets buoyancy a little.
 There was very heavy selling of Reading stock towards the close, and 1t lost all it's forenoon gain. The Vanderbilts were strong, and ru- more that the long-discussed plan of consolidating the holdings in the minor Vanderbilt properties would be an- nounced at this months annual meet ings of the companies were responsible for the violent advance in these shares during the day.
 The southern steel group was again prominently strong during the first part of the day. They had been resting for few days, after their recent sharp rise. Nothing new developed regarding the proposed merger but it is general belief that in time it will be concluded.
 The National Lead, Car Foundry, Pressed Car, Cast Iron Pipe and Bis cult stocks all made a notable gain and l lGIcL11lCO l4IC S9LNSllCl pat SA AS " |A@S end.
 One interesting point in the Union Pacific annual report was it's statement of what was done with it's Northern Se- curities holdings. It sold 71,500 shares, and now holds as free assets" 169,0OO shares of Great Northern, 22O,O0O shares of Northern Pacific and it's proportion ate amount of Northern Securities stubs." This shows that the company S sale of its Northern Securities stock, last April, was underestimated. It was not supposed to be more than 5O,OOO shares.
 Canadian Pacific earnings for the fourth week in November increased $2S1, ,000 over the same period last year, and for the month of November $9S9, 900. Since January they show an increase of $1,172,OO0, compared with the same period last year.
 A great deal of '1ong'' stock was met as Union Pacific was bid up. This was regarded as suspicious, in view of the favorable character of the annual re- port. One firm was credited with sell ing 10000 shares, checking the rise. After this incident a good deal of sell ing developed in other granger stocks.

NURSING HOUSE PLANTS IN
 WINTER,


 All plants that have their pots full of roots and are in a healthy condi- ton are benefited by feeding. But a healthy condition is necessary. No sickly plant can survive on a strong diet any more than can dyspeptic, but this sickly condition of plants is often brought about by lack of nour- ishment, and feeding is then neces- sary. Chemical fertilizers will en- able you to have smaller pots than would otherwise be necessary, and for house plants large pots are especially cumbersome. Plants fed regularly with chemical manure can be kept healthy in a pot one-half the size that would otherwise be needed. The feed- ing of plants in pots must always be done very carefully and at the proper time. Don't give doses of food when the plants are just past their periods of most active growth.
 A very clean, cheap and convenient fertilizer for home plants is ordinary "household" ammonia. Commence with five or six drops of ammonia to a cupful of water, and as the plants get usetd to it increase the dose, but never let it exceed half a teaspoonful to a breakfast cup cf water. A teaspoon ful of the special plant fertilizer sprin- kled on the top of a siX-inch pot more or less, according to the size of the pot-is sufficient. Then water it in. One application every two weeks shoul be ufficient.-Garden Magazine.

"In Japan his. knowledge of the American market for Japanese goods was big asset for 1im, and one of the largest firms in the Mikado's land took a. hold of him and made him it's American distributing agent, at a sal ary of 10000 yen year.
 He stayed witt that firm long enough to give him plenty of look around opportunities. Then he quietly skated around onpng the Japanese potteries where the finest work was turned out, as well ss among the mauu- facturers in the interior towns of all sorts of art produces, and submitted advantageous terms to them if they would give him options on their entire output.

that council the subject of how to recah the Man on the Street. as we English call it, came up for discussion, and the suggestion was made then and there to graple with the problem. Accodingly a torchlight parade through the city was organized.
 Headed by a band and by severad of England's most prominent minis- ters, the procession started.In it's rank marched several hundred Christians lawyers, doctors, college professors bankers, large employers of labor and others equally prominent. Saloons were visited. Hymns were sung while we marched, and by the time we got back to the Great Dome, as the place of meeting was called, fully 2,000 were in the ranks. Passing into the build. ing the throng crowded the hall the stage, the aisles. A simple Gospel ser vice was held, with an after meeting or inquiry meeting, as we call it. About l 700 stayed for this meeting, filling crowding, all the rooms back of the 1 stage. As I passed into one inquiry | rooms I saw at a glance what was

I saw, I re- | alized, that as Christ minister, as Christ's ambassador, I had not been bringing people as near to Christ, nor | Christ as as near to them, as he would | have me do.
 Returning to London, I sartled my congregation with the proposition, and though some shook their heads in dis | approval, many more approved, adn that most heartily. Our regular week ly prayer meeting, which had been barely kept alive for years by half a dozen respectable white-haired old gentlemen, became a prayer meeting in fact as well as in name. Hundreds of our usual 1,500 to 2,000 church at- 1 tendants came to the prayer meeting, ] Men prominent in London wealthy cir 1 sles stod up and prayed.

 Then I proposed a night parade and saloon visitation. One November night in drizzling rain, fully 1000 of my people marched through a mile and a half of London's busy streets. Not a word of incivility in any of the many saloons we visited asking the inmates
