A few things picked up from n chIld's
schoolbook: Never say, Il don't think
1t will rain" What you mean IS, II do
think It will not rain" "All oyer the
world" Is bad; say cover all the world"
"The reason why Is not only incorrect,
but doesn't sound rs well rs The rea-
son that" In the King James version
of the Bible quoted by some authorI-
ties as standard Of pure English, one
may find the following, which occurs
In Isaiah xxxvlI, 80: "Then the angel OF
the Lord went forth aud snotc in the
camp Of the Assyrinns a hundred and
fourscore and five thousand, and when
they arose early In the morning, be-
hold they were all dead corpses," In
other words, the corpses arose early In
the morning and found themselves
dead. Don't say "a man fell off the
dock" a man might fall into a dock,
but to say that he fell of a dock Is no
better than to say he fell OF hole.

Of the Earl Of Thanet, who died nearly
two centuries ago and was buried in

who sought to administer spiritual

In the ancient times there lived a
wonderfully wise man, of whom 1t was
said that he could answer correctly
any question put to him. There was
one, however, who thought himself
clever enough to outwit the sage, This
man took q poor, captive bird and
clasped it so closely in his hand that
only the head and tail were visible.
Tell me-" said he to the renowned
guesser of riddles. 'ls the bird which
I hold In my hand alive or deadT
If the answer were Dead" thought
this artful plotter, he would just open
his hand and let the bird fy. If the
answer were "Alive," he would with
one little squeeze crush the poor bird
to death.
But the wise man proved himself
equal to the occasion and replied, at Is
as you please"
Each one holds within his or her
grasp the fair bird Of life. Which is 1t
to be? A blessing or a bane7 It is "as
you please"

The crested rat of Enst Africa is re-
markablc, first because of the great
length Of the black and white hairs
down the ridge of the back, which are
rendered tho more conspicuous because
the hairs along the sides of the body
are so short and 50 differently colored,
being brownlsh gray and looking for
all the world as IL some one had taken
a pair OF scissors and mallci9usly shorn
of the decorative hair, leaving only a

able because the skull has a roofing of
bones exactly resembling that of some
turtles. while, Furthermore, this roof
has glanulated appearance recalling
that presented by the skulls of certain
fishes. In its habits it appears to be
arboreai while from the structure of ito

A Monster Musical Instrument.


The most gigantic harp ever con-
structed, as far as the record goes, was
that made by Veritan, the provost Of
Burkll, near Basel, Switzerland, In
1887. That was long while ago, but
the fame of NJ. Veritan's gigantic harp
was such that 1t is still occasionally
mentioned by writer's on the rare and
the wonderful, just as the sea serpent,
bloody rain, live mastodons, etc, are.
NJ. Verltan's colossal musical instru-
ment was 800 feet in length, and, on
that account was constructed In an
open lot instead Of in q harp factory. It
was most simple In construction, con-
sistlng of fifteen wires strung tightly
between two poles. These wires were
of different sizes, the largest being one
sixth of an inch in diameter and the
smallest one-twelfth Of an inch. They
were stretched north and south and in
cllned In such a manner as to form an
angle of from twenty to thirty degrees
with the horizon. This queer instrument
was not Intended as an exaggerated
toy, but was constructed for the ex-
press purpose Of foretelllng changes In
the weather, which were calculated by
Professor Yerltan according to the diff
f6rent tones the instrument made when
the wind was blowing through 1t.

Unfortunately a good many men have
the conviction that they must keep
exortlng themselves all the time. They
call every moment wasted which Is
not spent In activity OF some kind,
either physical or mental. Such men
are taking the quickest means to burn
themselves out. You cannot live well
and keep happy under a constant and
tyrannicnl sense Of effort. There must
be times Of play, times to let up the
tension and to do easy and natural
things which don't require conscience
and exact attention. Horace Bushnell,
the great Connecticut minister, recog-
nlzcd this when he said, Lets 60 sin
awhile" Shining has tho advantage
of being easy, and there are times
when the easy thing Is the right thing.
A man who takes no time of for one
kind Of play or another but who keeps
the anxious, conscientious look on his
face day in and day out, may be on the
road to heaven, but he will find that
the ssnltulum Is way station. n.--Dr.
