sealskin In the Making

How many Of the fair wearers OF seal
skin know how this fur is prepared. In
the skin OF a dog or cat it will be noticed
that at the roots Of the longer, coarser hair
OF the animal there are fine, short hairs,
called .under-furn. In most animals
these hairs are so few that they are usually
overlooked. Not so with sealskin.
The operation which the pelt undergoes
to bring out this under fur is really simple.
The skin, after going through various
processes to cleanse it Of grease, ETC., is
stretched out fiat with the flesh side up
permost. A fat knife is then passed over
it, thinning the skin considerably. In do
ing this it loosens the roots of the longer
hairs, which are more deeply imbedded
than those Of the under-fir. The rough
hairs are thus got rid of without injury to
the softer fir.
Next, the pelt passes through operations
which soften and preserve it. Then comes
the dyeing, by which the uniform tint SC
generally admired is obtained. And now
the fur is ready for making up into coy
wraps.

SCIENTIFIC THEOLOGY.

The very title Of this article suggests a nbvscal and
scientific impossbility
All science is progressive moving onward and up-
ward, discovering facts and demonstrating them
theology must from its very nature be and always re-
man stationary and inactive. Theology does not and can
not contain the elements of progress god be perfection
en all progress comes toan end the we reach god
Beyond that idea theology CO. If science could re-
veal god then might be made valuable adjunct to the
ooy but as science leads eealy and forever away from
the goddea science forward and beooov oes on
the down grade Their paths separate and as each
along the way they become widely divergent
10 abuse modern science has been the selfassumed task
OF the clergy and professional heogans Science brought
ABOUT new conception OF the universe. 1t presented an
array OF ndspuabe facts argument and the advocates
OF theology arrayed themselves against it to man LITTLE
by little scece forged its way through all the and
degrading supersttions it encountered at every STEP until
IL stood acknowledgements Then followed an era of
Cancellation Efforts made to show that science did
not disagree with revealed religion This failed An
other course was later pursued and the general claim
is made by the most advanced of the clergy that science is
an actual and positive ally of religion
Some writer, whose is not given in the Biblical
World published at Chicago contends that Science is not
only an aid to religion, but that he assimilation
OF the scientific spirit in the realm theology and religion
unifes the spirit life.'
But why such claim What induces ts Wb+ ono
the underlying motives for asserting t 1t is because sci
entlhc investigation has invaded all colleges and unve
sitle and the clergy readily oresee the drift of the
popular mind as resultant thereof The more true sci
ence the less regard for theology The student is soon
brought face to face with demonstrabe facts that absolutely
contradict the old theological notions nstled into his mind
during childhood The awakening of the intellect becomes
fatal to theology 1t is impossible to think scientifically
and then be compelled to bow the knee to supposed theo
logical authority Such would make mental
progress both hesitang and ineffective This conclusion
finds ample confederation from the fact that all the truly
great scientists the outside of the realm of eooov
and have abandoned it altogether factor in scientific
investigation With full and complete confidence in the
proposition that what true good truth must be good
