CHRISTMAS BELLS.

Ring odt in joy, o Ginning bells
For In your melody there dwelsE
The music glad of Chr!stmas-tide,
On every hearthstone far and wide
And rosy lips, with laughter sweet,
dhe happy songs of life repeat
Ring out in joy
Ring out In hope 0 Ginning bells
For your clear voice Of patience tells
To waiting hearts who promise yields
No golden fruit of harvest fields,
Whose garnered grain of toiling hand
Lies heaped upon a barren land
Ring out In hope
Ring out In grief, Ginning bells!
For in your trembling echo dwelis
To saddened hearts a thought OF old,
picture framed In memory's gold,
vanished face beneath the snow,
A dream Of life's sweet long ago
Ring out in grief
Ring out in cheer, o Ginning bells!
For In your peals promise dwells
To listening hearts that strive to heal
The futures voice of hope and cheer;
For love and joy will have their birth
As snOwdrops spring from Icy earth
Ring out In cheer
Ring out in peace, Ginning bells
For Christmas tide a message tells
To eager souls that bravely wait.
And loyal hearts too strong for fate
To crush to earth--Oh. listen. then:
lis Peace on earth. good will to mem
Ring out In peace.

deau refined up, and crossed himself with

what is wrong, my husDard?" asked
his wife.
"A light in our window" he said, in a
scared whisper. Then he heard a soft,
happy laugh, half smothered by her
shawl, and wondered.
Drive on fast, my husband; one per-
son only knows the place in which we
hide the key"
The windows were all alight when they
reached the porch, and from the pipe
which served as chimney, clouds of long,
feathery cinders from the fire of dry deal
ends flew kissing into the whirling drift.
Then he saw sleigh tracks, which came
to and turned from the door, and under
stood.

He brushed the snow from a window
pane, and looking in, saw Angeline dress
ed in her once discarded blouse and glrtle
of purple and yelloW-even the moccasins,
had come, bringing such happiness as he
had never dreamed could be his again.
He led the old mare to her stall, and
as he rubbed down her shaggy coat he re-
called the old, old parable, grandest OF
all the Book. The poetry of the story he
could not grasp, of course, any more than
he could realize the glory of the antithe-
sis, with which it ended; but the words
came to him, even in the voice of the
wind, as it moaned in the caves or round
the corners and gables of the barn. and
he uttered them in a voice which broke
with the very weight of his joy,

ELECTRIC POWER IN AFRICA.
Plan to Transmit Current 745 Miles
Is Not ADproNed.

| Is Not Approved.
1t is gratifying to note that the tech
meal press has sounded a note Of warn
ing against the preposterous proposal
to generate hydraulic electric power at
the Victoria falls of the Zambesi river
and transmit it over a distance of 74J
miles for use in the gold mines of
johannesburg, says the Scientific Amer
>can. But, although the proposal to
deliver this power at a figure that
would be at once economical to the con-
sumner and profitable to the company
has been ridiculed by the technical
press, the lay public is liable to be mis-
led by the scheme, which on the face
of it would seem to hold out flattering
prospects of success
At the present time the most import
tant transmission Of energy for COM
mercial purposes is that from Niagara
to Buffalo, where the distance covered
does not exceed twenty miles. The long
est transmission, according to present
information, is that which is in sue
cessful operation in California, over a
distance of about 220 miles, so that
the proposed transmission line in
South Africa will be $40 per cent longer
than anything that has yet been con-
templated.
According to Prof William E. Ayr
ton, who not long ago made a severe
criticism of the scheme in the London
Times, the johannesburg mining dis
trict consumes about 10000 horse
power at an average cost of 500
horse power a year. Niagara sends
4,0O0-horse power to Buffalo, where it
is sold at about $125 a horse power a
year, and Buffalo, as we have noted,
is distant from Niagara only twenty
miles.
Furthermore, in the nelghborhood OF
johannesburg are abundant supplies OF
coal, of which an excellent quality can
be delivered ON the Rand for from
$3.50 to 50 ton. Even If the Victoria
Falls plant were to be built and great
transmission line constructed It is not
likely that the important mining indus
tries In Johannesburg would be willing
to trust the operation of their costly
plants TO the integrity of few copper
cables extending for over 700 miles
through the wilds Of savage country.

The old gunner standing rigid drew the
lanyard toward himself with a sudden

cloud of choking smoke enveloped the gun
crew. Another shell had been sent into
the solid earthworks of Fort Fisher.
The boy from Maine rushed forward
through the smoke and thrust the clean

other of the crew dashed a pailfull of
