prophesy and say unto them: Thus
saith the Lord God: Behold, o my peo-

cause you to come up out of your
graves, and bring you into the land of
Israel. And We shall know that
am the Lord"

he remembered his doubt and dis

cried:

many great gifts, possessed a singular
skill in devising and conducting beau

ly produced In 1869 a bit OF blue sky
in the lecture room. In a glass tube
three feet in length and three inches in
diameter he exhausted the air until it
was less than one-tenth the density Of
the atmosphere we breathe and repre-
scented the rarer air high overhead.
Into this exhausted air he introduced
nitrite of butyle vapor, which is ex-
tremely volatile. Then a strong beam
of light in a room otherwise dark was
passed through the mixture, and in the
glass tube there glowed a beautiful
blue cloud, rivaling In color the finest

HE ATE THE SOAP.
Garland Would Have Swallowed It II
II Had Killed Him.

Augustus II. Garland, who was at
torney general under President Cleve-
land, was very fond of practical jokes
and during his term Of service in the
senate frequently turned the laugh on
his colleagues. Senators Voorhees, and
Vest, with whom he was very friendly,
finally determined to turn the tables
Mr. Garland had a habit, like NOor-
hees, Of munching candy, and Vest ard
Voorhees, made it up between them to
take advantage Of his fondness for
sweets to play their trick. They had
some tempting looking chocolate cara
mels prepared, with the interior filed
with brown soap. These they took to
the senate chamber, and Voorhees,
placed them on his desk. The lid being
off, when Mr.. Garland sauntered down
the aisle he noticed them at once.
"What have you there, Dan?' he in
quired
Voorhees, looked up carelessly from
his writing and responded: "Caramels.
Help yourself"
Garland needed no second invitation
and, picking up two or three, placed
one in his mouth. Steadily he chewed
away, his face betraying no sign Of the
conflict within him. This alarmed
Voorhees,, who went TO Vests desk and
said:
Hes eating them, Vest! What shall
we do? The stuff will kill him surer
Senator Vest replied that 1t could do
no more than make him sick. Garland
swallowed the stuff, although he was
foaming at the mouth from the soap
suds. He related the incident after
ward with great gusto and said he
would have swallowed it if it had
killed him.
