Easter Is the promise Of the Lord
that all the best and noblest in man
shall besrenewed, even as growth and
bloom and ripening shall not cease.
The bars of winter are broken, and
the iron bands of death are riyer.
The bird is on the wing, and the flight
of the soul shall know no WEAKNESS.
The lilies lift their holy white grails,
brimmed with the sunshine OF Gods
love. For has not the Lord mani
tested His love in flowers and In the
upspringing of green things? They
are sweet interpreters Of large GER
tainties. Each year the winter cuts
them down, and each spring they put
forth again. Every spring Is new
page In the book Of revelation, where
in we read that life Is an eternal
genesis, and its end 10 not; for 1t
endureth forever.

ICE FOR HEATING.
One of the Oddities of Our Moderz
 Civilization,

One of the Oddities of Our Modern
 Civilization.
 The use of ice for heating purposes is one of the oddities of our modern civilization. Often it happens that 6 train carrying fruit from the south to the northern market encounters a cold spell while en route. If the tempera- ture goes below a certain point the per- ishable merchandise will be ruined. But such misfortune may be prevent ed by covering the fruit car with c coat of ice, thing easily accomplished by turning a hose upon it and allowing the water to freeze until the whole ve- hicle is enveloped in glassy and gilt tering blanket.
 It may, indeed, be appropriately call ed blanket, inasmuch as it prevents the radiation of heat from the interior of the car. The ice being a good non- conductor the warmth is retained and the fruit, or possibly it may be vegeta- bles, goes on it's way unspoiled even by zero weather.
 Cars used for transporting oranges and other fruit from California to the east are often provided nowadays with large cylindrical 'ice stoves," as they might be called, at each end, which, while useful in summer time for re- frigeration, are filled with ice during a cold spell in winter. When the tenn perature outside is at zero or below, the ice, at 32 degrees E., is compara- lively warm, and thus the stoves" de scribed act as heaters.

They Are Not So Much Lost as They 1 Are Discarded.
 ''Not so many years ago it was quite commonly asserted that modern work men could not quarry, or, having quar- ried, could not handle stones as large as the monoliths of Egypt" says a sci- enlist, 'and the writer has heard a pub 1 lie speaker of note assert that it would be impossible to handle, with modern implements, such large stones as were used in the pyramids or to join them as perfectly as they are joined there. Yet, when occasion arose, larger stones than any of these were quarried in Maine, and some of the larger mono hths themselves were transported not only to sea, but across it and erected in England, France and America. "There are individuals today who might if they chose cause the transpor- tation to and erection in this country of the largest pyramids or build new ones ten times larger and more dur able. Pyramids are not being general ly built nowadays because they are not in line with the trend of modern ambi- tion, that's all.
 Ut is very doubtful if a Damascus blade would stand half as severe usage as a modern band saw blade or even as, much as the spring of a forty cent clock, while the ornamentation of those wondrous blades, so far as the mechanical execution is concerned, can be excelled by apprentices and anna teufs of today"
