The difference between love on earth
and love in heaven is not to be con-
veyed in words, but in tranquil and
pure moods it may even on earth be
apprehended by the sight of the spirit
Love In heaven has realized all that
earthly love aspires to, and from that
goal its progress begins, never to cease.
The sky toward which it yearned In the
world has become the ground on which
1t stands here, but now another sky is
above 1t. We forecast heaven as re
pose and peace, the fulfilling Of the
hearts desire, the immortal presence
with us Of beauty and happiness But
man is not so poorly content. We
leave behind us on earth the obstacles
of the body, and in heaven we labor
not for bread, raiment and shelter;
hearts are not parted by space and
time; we deceive not, strive not one
against the other, scheme not to Guido
others for the gain of our own name
and fame. Yet in heaven are labor,
emulation, ambition, loves holy fear
and humility deeper than hell is deep
below the heavens. Tears we have
also and awe of that want which only
the divine fullness can supply.-Julian
Hawthorne in Century.

The Young Heron.

OF heronry naturalist says: at is
not, to put it mildly, a savory place.
On the island in question nearly every
available building site was occupied.
The nest is roughly put together plat
form Of sticks and does not strike one
as being at all safe nursery. Baby
herons are, If possible, uglier than the
ordinary run of nestlings, their appear
ance being rendered most grotesque by
patches of long hairlike feathers stud
ded over the body. l took down one
young bird in order to have good look
at him. While handling him a whole
frog, fully two inches in length, drop
ped out of him, and, judging from the
distension of his corporation there
must have been several more inside
him! l tried to return the frog to him.
and most amusing were the attempts
he made to swallow it, but l lacked the
skill of his parents and in the end was
obliged to cut up the frog and force it
piecemeal into his gullet"

Writing of the local patrol wagon the
Penang correspondent of the Straits
Times, Singapore, says: at forcibly
calls to mind at first sight four wheel
ed bakers cart, bar the fact that it is
drawn by about the slowest pair of
bullocks in the settlement There is
nothing grim at all about 1t, for it is
commanded by sleepy Malay con-
stable perched on the box; Its roof and
sides are formed of white canvas, and
it has no door to close at the back, but
merely an opening in which another
Malay constable half slumbers. Two
or three other constables ride inside sit
ting on the benches with the prisoners,
who seem to be too struck with novelty
of the ride to make any attempt at es-
cape. l should say that an escape from
this prison van would be as easy as
falling off log"

Wants and Needs.

The moment the monthly salary
crosses the bare necessity line, that
moment the horizon of wants begins
to widen, says Harper's Bazaar. For
every dollar the salary increases the
imagination finds place for 81, So, 81
or So. A great part of the demands
existing in the world today are ro-
mantle. How shall the Imagination
be schooled, where shall the line be
drawn?
1t should be considered a part Of
morality to live within the income, but
on every side there seems to be an
attempt to stretch the $1,000 income to
a $1,000 scale, the $1,000 income to a
$4,000 scale, $1,000 is made to do duty
for $1,000 and $4,000 is thinly stretched
to the breaking point to stimulate a
$4,000 income. With every added dol
lar the horizon of wants will widen
unless the imagination is wisely school
ed. Sadly do we need training to draw
the line between wants and needs.

Big men are usually shy and diffident
and lacking in self assurance. The wo-
man who appeals to them is usually
some sparkling, vivacious, fairylike Gre
allure with kittenish ways and roguish
glances. The little man, on the CON
trary, Is seldom burdened with humiI-
ity. He is being Of great aspirations
and stupendous ambitions. He be-
lieves in himself, which is the reason
why he generally can get the woman
of his choice to smile upon him. The
dainty, Titanla-like woman has no
charms for him, says Woman's Life.

An original scheme evolved by a GER
tain tobacco merchant to introduce his
goods worked to the satisfaction of a
physician to whom this dealer sent a
box of cigars with a bill for IS and an
explanatory letter, which read:
Although you have not ordered
these cigars, take the liberty of send
ing them, feeling sure you will find
them excellent"
After the doctor had smoked the
cigars, says the Medical Times and
Hospital Gazette, he mailed FIVE pre-
scriptions to the tobacconist, with a
note, saying:

Surely the Monmouthshire man who
caused his wife's wedding ring to be
inscribed, "If thee doesn't work, thee
shan't eat" was determined that there
should be no mistake in what he re-
quired In wife. The only wonder is
how any woman could be induced to
marry him with such a threat before
her eyes. The exact date Of this ring
is not known, but it is previous to the
eighteenth century = Chambers Jour

The story of "A Brook.
To lovers of outdoors there are few
things in the wide world which are
more enchanting. more altogether de-
lighting, than just such a brook, whose
course-whose life, so to speak, have
been trying to bring to the mind Of
those who know all its turns and
whims and capriees In summer and in
winter, in spring and in autumn, when
much rain had maddened it and when
uone had caused it to shrink into a
warped thing of nature without form
and void. We may be hundreds of
miles from the brook which we know
best, but we know it is flowing just as
1t used to do, and there is ever the
thought that if we cannot see 1t in its
daily moods there are others who may
do so. And. no matter the name of the
peaceful valley through which it flow
ed or where that valley may be. it
was the brook of our childhood, and
there is brook, or ought to be, away
back somewhere in the mind of every
one whose heart and memory take him
back to the scenes where at least some
younger days We're spent.-Outdoors

symptoms-DR. 0. @. GREEN
qThs aid of scientific inventions is not
needed to determine whether your lungs
are affected. The first symptoms can be
readily noted by anyone of average in
telligence.
qThere is no disease known that gives so
many plain warnings of its approach as
consumption, and no serious disease that
can be so quickly reached and checked
If the medicine used is DR.. Boschee's
German Syrup, which is made to cure
consumption.
GIT is in the early stages that German
Syrup should be taken, when warnings
are given in the cough that won't quit,
the congestion of the bronchial tubes and
the gradual weakening of the lungs, &C
companied by frequent expectoration.
qBut no matter how deep-seated your
cough, even if dread consumption has
already attacked your lungs, German
Syrup will surely effect cure-as it has
done before in thousands of apparently
hopeless cases of lung trouble.

Big Game on the Nile.

A traveller on the upper Nile gives
this picture Of big game that abounds
there: "Of wild animals elephants take
the first place; there are enormous
herds of them, and the ivory is of the
greatest size. A big herd wanders
down from the tanks of Elgon and
uses remarkable elephant road, which
is apparently used only during the sea
son of migration. This herd frequently
crosses the Nile at the southern end of
the lake-like extension near Wadelai.
Hippopotami come next in size and are
to be found In countless numbers In
the Nile. When the tributary rivers
are in food they go a long way up
them. Were it not for the fact that in
the Nile they are extremely dangerous
and cause considerable loss Of life,
they might well be preserved, for they
do little other harm-a very small fence
is sufficient to keep them out Of cult
vation."
