THE HOME OF THE HOLY GRAIL.

THE HOME OF THE HOLY GRAIL.
 The mystic shrine of Monsalvat, the home of the Holy Grail, borne away from human strife to that remote corner of the world, long haunted the medieval mind. As the originally Gel tic tale of Sir Percival slowly develop ed in Germany Monsalvat became an essential part of the legend; it was in- evitable that when in modern times that legend again emerges in the crowning achievement of Wagner S genius, the Grail is still preserved by religious order at Monsalvat, in Gothic Spain, not far from the land of the Mosen1s.
 The Northerners who dreamed of vent devotion or romantic exaltation had heard rumor, but for the most part they knew little or nothing of it's kernel of fact. Yet the rumor itself is the most potent evidence of the world wide fascinationt which the ancient mountain shrine of Montserrat exert ed over the imagination of men for lllUI6 Jlldu d tIIOuSdlu y6dIS, anu, IT, deed, still exerts even today. It Is in vain that one climbs the heights of Montserrat with memories of Amfor- tas and the ''pur food" When We have made our way up, beyond even the shrine and the monastery to the great ravine which is said to have rent the summit of the mountain at the mo- ment of the Crucifixion, and when we have, passed the fanastic row of rocky pinnacles to which the name of Guardians of the Holy Grail' has been assigned, we have seen all that there is to connect the real Montser- rat with the legendary Monsalrat. Per haps we should be well content that so sublime a symbol has long been borne away to an invisible home, and that the Holy Grail should have it's sole and immortal shrine in the human megination,-Hay Ellis, in Har- per's.

How the Japs Pull Teeth.

The japanese dentist does not
frighten his patient with an array of
steel instruments. All his operations
i'm tooth drawing are performed by
the forefngcr and thumb of one
hand. The skill necessary TO do this
is acquired only after long practice,
but when once IL is obtained the op.
orator is able 10 extract half dozen
teeth in about thirty seconds, with
out once removing his fingers from
the patients mouth, says Home
Notes. The dentists education com
mences with the pulling out of pegs
which have been pressed into soft
wood; IL ends with the drawing of
hard pegs which have been driven in
TO an oak plank with mallet.

Keep in Line.

Keep in line with the Holy Ghost.
Whatever is accomplished in over
throwing the kingdom Of Satan and
the upbuilding OF the Kingdom OF God
can only be done through and by the
direction OF the Holy Ghost. He Is
the great Director of effort for the
redemption of the world. He is the
Controller OF all the forces which God
sets TO work in every age for the SAL
walton OF men.
There Is diversity In His opera
tions. He does not always work in
the same way. lie does not always
set forth the same truths. He ig-
nores no truth, but presents all truth
just when and what people need. lie
presents truths in their proper order.
He does not ALWAYS use the same
measures. Some things wear out and
lose their power over men.-Ths

lInM 10 Drum.

II was the custom in the days OF
our old navy for the men TO bring
o the mast all the worn out articles
"hich were TO be inspected. handed
n and exchanged for new. The
drummer had applied for so many
drum-hesds that the commodore felt
sure he was being imposed upon, and
one day set himself TO watch while
the band was playing. As one rather
martial air followed another his
anger increased perceptibly.. until he
burst forth in uncomfortable rage:
There, now, confound you. I
see why you use so many drum
heads. Don't drum In the middle
OF IL all the time Drum all over

We Are Saved Through Faith.

To confess, 10 weep, to pray. to re-
solve--all these are of no avail un-
less we believe. IL is by believing
that we have peace with God
through our Lord Jesus Christ" 1t
is by believing the Exceeding great
and precious promises that they are
realized ia our experiences. In order
To receive any benefit from the work
of Jesus we must believe that He is
able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think" To
the blind men who sought His help,
Jesus said Believe We that ! am
able TO DO this? They said unto Him,
Yea, Lord. Then touched He their
eyes, saying, According To your faith
he il unto you. And their eyes were
opened. To tho ruler of the sNna-
gogue Jesus said, Fear not; believe
only"
We mrst remember, however. that
"a nominal faith in Christ, which
accepts Him merely as the Saviol: of
the world, can never bring healing to
the soul. The faith which is unto
salvation is not a more intellectual
assent 70 the truth. He who waits
FOR entire knowledge before he will

ing from God. IL is not enough TO
believe about Christ; we must believe
in Him. The only faith that will
benefit us is that which embraces
Him as a personal Saviour, which APP
propriates His merits 10 ourselves.
Many hold faith as an opinion; saw
ing faith Is a transaction, by which
those who receive Christ join sbem-
selves in covenant relation with God.
Genuine faith is life" Believe ana

Dull for George Washington.

Some legends, especially those with
moral, die hard. A little boy had
told a fib, with the carelessness of
imaginative childhood, and was re-
ceiving the conventional rebuke, cou-
pied with the threat that the conven-
tional reward of the future would not
be his unless he told the truth. Won't
there be anybody in Heaven who has
told a story?" asked the small boy,
much interested mo, dear" an
swered his teacher, at a venture. The
small boy drew a long breath of deep
reflection. How jolly dull for George
Washington" he remarked.-The Lon
don Chronicle.
