OF late we now hear of the marriage
of FL. w. Burlingame to Mrs. Will
lard, the lady who has been nurs-
ing him during the long siege of
sickness. The solemn knot was
tied on Tuesday, Jan. 10th, 1905.
Little or no hope is given out for
the sick mans recovery and this
strange marriage was performed
for the purpose of establishing
legal beneficiary for numerous in
surance fraternal contracts, in pay
ment for the kind treatment be-
slowed upon the sick man by his
nurse. We understand that a will
had previously been drawn, favor
ing an only child, Ed. Burlingame,
but just before the father was taken
with his fatal malady. the boy
abandoned him and left him to the
care of friends.
Marshall Messenger: 1t is prob
able that the black eye on Main
street, caused by the destruction
of the Baldwin building by fire two
or three years ago, will be removed
early this summer. The Baldwin
building was the finest building on
the street and it's loss was a severe
blow to the appearance of the city S
business district. Mr.. Baldwin
planned to rebuild soon after the
fire, but did not feel able to dupli-
cate the former building, and the
property has unfortunately for the
city laid idle since. Now Mr.. Bald
win is seriously contemplating the
building of a more modern building
than the old one, double store of
two stories, and will quite likely
begin operations early in the spring.
There would be little difficulty in
finding occupants, as the location is
about the most desirable in the
city, and new building on the site
of the old would doubtless influence
a return of good deal of the large
patronage of the former Bald win
store.

MOTHER EDDY'S TEACHINGS.
A Boston Writer Tells What They Are
As and TumbleS onto MIR. Sunday.

To THE EDITOR: In your issue OF
Jan. 9th Mr.. W. A. Sunday intro
duces a criticism on Christian Science
by declaring that he is not ignorant
of its teachings, having read the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip
lures, by Mary Baker G. Eddy.
This illustrates that the mere
reading of book does not always
result in an understanding of it,
and the proof of ones understand
ing of any science is ones ability
to demonstrate it. It should be
noted that Christian Science is in
deed a science and must be so
treated. In the Christian Science
movement no one is permitted to
pose as a teacher who has not been
a successful practitioner for at least
three years. What would be thought
of one who assumes to attack math-
ematics and to declare it false be-
fore having been able to solve a
single problem to prove even to
himself that he understands it? No
one is capable of giving an intelli-
gent Interpretation of Christian
Science who has not proved his un-
Outstanding by healing the sick
according to it's methods. I do not
hesitate to say that the gentleman,
however good his intentions may
be, does not understand Christian
Science. And why? Because he
does not state it as it is understood
by practicing Christian Scientists,
and / believe that your readers
will concede that the understanding
of an unprecedented student of IS
years standing is more reliable
than hasty, untempered declara-
ton of one who has only read it
specifically.
The gentleman quotes a declara-
ton of the late Judge Arnold of
Pennsylvania to the effect that the
Christian Science church is ICON
Quoted for profit" and did not re-
fer to the decision of the broader
minded and more capable judge of
the supreme bench of that state,
who, 10 reviewing Judge Arnold's
decision, declared: "There is no
evidence that the Christian Science
church is conducted for profit. "
While giving authority the gentle
man should have given the highest
and final decision of the court on

Previous to the discovery of the Bra.
lillian mines in 1927 diamonds were
found chiefly in India and Borneo. The
most valuable Brazilian diamond was
the Southern Star, found in 1854, which
weighed 254 carats in the rough and
124 carats after cutting. The South
African diamonds do not equal the Bra
lillian for purity on the average Other
countries where diamonds are known
are the United States, British Guiana.
Russia, China, Sumatra and Australia.
In the United States the stones are
found only occasionally in alluvial ma
terial and drift. The great lakes re-
gion Is one Of the districts in which
they are found
Owing to the peculiar circular or oval
form of the deposits in which diamonds
are discovered in South Africa it is con-
sidered that these deposits mark the
vents or pipes Of ancient volcanoes, and
1t is therefore considered that the pres
ence of diamonds is connected with vol
'anic activity, the stones either having
been brought up from the interior of
the earth or having been formed where
found under the influence of molten
rock in connection with carbonaceous
shale.

Heroism Rewarded.

Years ago q vessel was wrecked off
lhe northwest coast of Ireland. Crowds
gathered on the beach to witness the
scene. A few brave men came forward
and put out to the sinking vessel. AS
they came back to the shore with their
burden of human lives the watchers
cried: Have you got them all? Are
they all saved?" "Yes," was the an
swer, "all but one. If we had stayed
for him all would have been lost" In.
stantly stalwart fellow stepped out
from the crowd and called for volun-
teers. The mother begged the young
man not to go, saying: "Your father
was lost at sea; your brother William
sailed away, and we have never heard
from him. If you go my all will be
lost" Embracing her, he said, 81 must

Monkeys at Play.


Nothing is more instructive" said
the zoo keeper to a Baltimore Herald
reporter, than to watch young mon
keys at play. These interesting crea.
lures investigate everything with in
satiable curiosity. They do things
startling enough to convince me that
they have almost human minds.
II had in India a young monkey that
learned to put the key in the lock and
unlock the chain that fastened it to a
pole. Near this monkey there always
lay brush with handle that un-
screwed. In time the monkey learned
to unscrew the handle and then to
screw it in again.
"a friend Of mine had monkey that
he kept chained just out of reach of the
hearth fire. This monkey learned to
tear strips from newspapers, roll them
into long tapers and light them in the
flames" ..-,s-.

The Tower of PISA.

The famous leaning tower of Pisa is
campanile or bell tower. The build
ing, which is cylindrical in form, is
1877 feet high and fifty feet in diameter
made entirely of white marble. 1t is
called the leaning tower from the fact
that it inclines some thirty feet from
the perpendicular, and it is not general
" known that this inclination, which
gives the tower such a remarkable ap-
pearance was not intentional. At the
time it was about half done the error
in measurement was perceived. 1t was
guarded against by the use of extra
braces in the further construction of
the building and an adaptation of the
stone in the highest portion. There
are seven bells on the top of the tower,
the largest of which weighs 1000
pounds, and these are so placed as to
counteract as far as possible the lean
ing Of the tower itself.

A Co1o..aJJ Idol. .

Two miles from Kamakura and about
twenty from Yokohama, in Japan, on
a terrace near the temple sits the most
gigantic idol in the world. 1t is the
brazen image Of deity and dates from
the reign of the Emperor Shomu, who
died A. D. 748. The dimensions Of
this idol are colossal. His height from
the base Of the lotus flower upon which
he sits to the top of his head is sixty
three and half feet. The face is
sixteen feet in length and nine and a
half feet wide, the eyes are three feet
nine inches from corner to corner, the
eyebrows five and half feet and the
ears eight and a half feet. The chest
is twenty feet in depth, and the middle
finger is exactly five feet long. The
fifty-six leaves of the lotus throne are
each ten feet long and six feet wide.

Rice Eater. and wheat Eaters.

Some writer once classified the popu-
lation of the world into two groups
the rice eaters and the wheat eaters.
With rice goes fish, and with wheat
goes meat. Chemical analysis shows
that each of these combinations forms
perfect diet. embracing all the neces-
sary food elements. But, while the
wheat and meat diet requires an elab-
crate and expensive preparation to
make it ready for use, the rice and
fish diet is cheap and simple. 1t needs
no slaughter houses, mills or bakeries,
with dozens of other adjunctive fac
tories. Fish and rice can be prepared
for food by the simplest processes with
in fifteen minutes after they are
brought to the pot. And SO the rice
eaters are able to live on few pennies
day and yet thrive and become big
and populous nations. - Kansas City

Both men and women when they de-

The Pu1n,t R,9oo,

Sir William Dugdale applied the
name pulpit buffoon" to Hugh Peters
(1598-16G0), the joke loving Puritan
clergyman, whose pulpit peculiarities
made him notable figure during the
English civil war, when he held the
post of chaplain to the parliamentary
army. Peters was born jester, and
the pulpit set no bar to his broad hui

rlhe sleep Of Plants.

The leaves of the common clover give
good example of what Linnaeus call
ed the sleep of plants. At sunset the
two side leaflets of each set of three
bend forward until their edges nearly
meet, when the middle leatiet droops
downward to touch them and completes
the picture of repose
Some of the bean family assume as
perfect pastures Of rest. The wistaria
hangs the end and central leaflet of
each cluster directly downward, point
ing to the earth, while the side leaflets
drop in double rows, back to back. The
leaves of the scarlet runner have a
similar habit. The willow foliage
twists into position that is almost
vertical, and the leaves of the vine are
raised slightly at their edges and de-
pressed toward the center.
All such sleeping foliage is singularly
rigid and retains the position which it
has assumed. This persistence is due
to the presence of water in the tissues
Of the leaves. AT dawn of day the
plants awaken, and their leaves re-
sumo their ordinary attitude.

sunnower Seed Eaters.

A traveller says that one Of the first
things which struck him on his arrival
in Russia was the enormous quantity
Of sundower seed consumed in that
country. The seeds, which are olea-
ginous and have an agreeable taste,
are constantly chewed by the people.
The outer husk is detached with the
teeth and spat out. These husks are
seen scattered about on pavements and
garden walks, in railway carriages,
tramway cars and cabs, on the floors
Of restaurants and private rooms. On
days of public festivity the ground
everywhere Is covered with them. At
every street corner brisk trade is
done in the seeds by old women.
