The Pn,,cr Divine.

Whatever the trial or difficulty that
may beset and hamper the christian
life, there is little doubt that to con-
slider the will power as divine instead
of human would mean added strength,
surer victory and stronger character.
If each one believed he possesses a
spark of divine will entrusted to him
by the great Master, and as fast as he
uses this bit entrusted to him, he may
draw on the merchandising supply
for more, would we not find ourselves
relying on something so much stronger
than the weak, human will that we
could go out "conquerlng and to CON
querT
1t Is only by meeting all temptations
and overcoming them that we learn
the lessons of life. Maybe not all on
this plane OF existence. Maybe some
things are not temptations to us that
are so to Others Perhaps in forgot
ten experiences we have overcome
them. The things we are fighting TO-
day, II We overcome them before the
night comes, will be put as far from us
as the east Is from the west, and we
will have time in "ths eternal years"
we will have energy and strength to
learn new lessons.

A young clergyman in remote coun
try district wrote last Easter time t.
Bishop Potter, saying that he was abou
to take a wife and asking if, to save

The bishops reply was marvelously con

An old white haired darky living on

him as he was getting old he must eat

darby, How can you spect me to stay
in de house at night and still get my
chickens?"
A certain man. who was recently re-
elected to a position that he had held
for many years, met a friend who con-
graduated him on his continued good
fortune. To this the other replied:

cANADA's USE OF NIAGARA.
Government Completes with PrIvate
Power Companies.

| Government Completes with PrIvat,
Power Companies.
The development of the hydraulic
power of Niagara on the Canadian side
| is leading to some interesting Sc
quences, says Casters Magazine.
A tribunal called the Hydro Electric
Power Commission has been created
and in the hands of this body has been
placed the entire domestic regulation
of the power product of stations COM
ing within government control.
In addition there has been given to
the various municipalities the right to
undertake the distribution of electrical
energy within their respective limits
In order that the commission may be
in position to dictate terms to the ex-
listing private companies it is important
that the cooperation of the municipal
tiles be obtained and this appears to be
partially accomplished.
The city of Toronto has already ar
ranged for 1900 horsepower of cleo
trio energy from Niagara, the price be-
Ing $14 to SIG per horsepower for a
supply for a 24-hour day, including
transmission to Toronto, the local dis
tribution to be In the hands of the mu-
niclpality. and it is believed, that
number of other cities and towns WI.
make similar arrangements.
These agreements are made with the
Hydro Electric Power Commission, and
1t in turn must either secure the power
supply from the existing private com
panies or else proceed to develop its
own stations.
1t is hardly probable that the latter
will be found necessary,
since the result would be to leave the
private corporations with the greater
part of their prospective custom per-
taken away, SO that the real
of the recent legislation Is
to compel the companies to supply the
through the commission
1t prices determined by the engineers
II the new body.
1t is possible that such measures will
prove advantageous to the public. but
much will depend upon the manner In
which the law is carried out 1t has
'een intimated that this legislation will
ender 1t exceedingly difficult for pro-
noters to induce outside capital to en-
age in the development of natural re |
ources In Canada hereafter.

The Light of joy.

We all have our sorrows, and they
may be very bitter. We all have to
endure pain, perhaps, again and again,
all have our griefs and our losses, Ind
ofttimes our hearts may seem to break.
But through all these experiences the
light of JOY may continue to shine
within Us, and our peace need not be
broken. The happiness God gives is
part of the life of Heaven, and in that
home the light goeth not out by day,
and there Is no night there.-Rev. ]. r.
Miller.

! place the lips within half an inch Of
the mouthpiece and speak in a consid-
erably lower tone than you ordinarily
use in face-to-face conversation.
The reason for this is simple. Just
behind the mouthpiece is an Alumni
um diaphragm backed with very thin
sheet of hard carbon. Between this
sheet of carbon and the points of con
tact of the wires Is a space filed with
finely powdered carbon.
The sound waves of the voice make
the aluminium diaphragm vibrate ANDY
this in turn affects the carbon sheet.
which stirs the graduated carbon be-
hind it,
The electrical current that is pass
ing through the carbon powder feels
all these vibrations, however slight, and
reproduces them in the receiver and
the other end of the line, setting in mo-
ton sound waves corresponding to,
those in the translnitter.
If you shout at the transmltter the
vibrations may be so violent as to re-
suit In only a confusing tumble at the
other end of the wire. Besides, loud
talking through a telephone is distress
ing to the listener, who, you must re-
member, gets the full volume of sound
very close to his ear.
If you hear a telephone man talking
by wire you will notice that he drawls
his words little-not enough to make
conversation notlceably slow, but suA
ficiently so that one word is started on
its way before another can tread on it's
heels
Clipping words which is sometimes
lone under the impression that it gives
them sharper sound, is a mistake
Even for talking over considerable dis
.ances the voice should be lowered in
telephone conversations. - Brooklyn

Let Me but Live.


Let me but live my life from year t.
year,
With forward face and unreluctant
soul,
Not Fastening to, nor turning from
the goal;
Not mourning for the things that dis
appear
In the dim past, nor holding back in
fear
From what the future wells, but with
whole
And happy heart, that pays It's toll
To Youth and Age, and travels on with
cheer.
So let the way wind up the hill or down,
Though rough or smooth, the journey
will be joy;
Still seeking what l sought when but
a boy,
New friendship, high adventure, and
crown,
shall grow old, but never lose life's
zest,
Because the roads last turn will be the
best.

cess in life make perseverance your
bosom friend, experience your wise
counsellor, caution your elder brother
and hope your guardian genius"

God in all your ways. There are two
ways in which people pass through
this world, one is by remembering and
