ing impurities from the body is not hus-
banded but rather squandered in different
ways. Then too we eat and drink those
things that cause excessive waste. An
impure diet composed Of foods containing
uric acid, such as meat, or of drinks con-
tanning poisons, such as tea and coffee,
taxes the eliminative powers, and when the
time comes when these give way a state of
imperfect elimination has set in, the wastes
In part are deposited in the system, settling
in the arteries and joints Of the body
and accommodating until they become OBJ
structive elements.
The blood stream ciroulates imperfectly,
and when once this condition exists bad
functioning Of overy organ Of the body
results and old age and death gradually
ensue.
Mind too has a great deal to do in hasten-
ing or retarding the unpleasant signs Of
physical decay. Mental science has satia-
faotorily demonstrated that mean, isarTSw-,
selfish and unpleasant thoughts act do
structvcly on the tissues Of the body while
thoughts OF wholesome and positive char
acter act constructively.
And when the curtains OF athe windows
OF the soul" are drawn, when tho temples
door Is closed and final silence is within.
when the spirit passes the threshold TO take
up newer and finer edifice OF its own crea-
ton, science assures US that the body lives
on. Here at least physical immortality
is an assured fact.
Theology has irreligiously taught us that
the body returns to inaninate dust The
religious answer of science is that 1t returns
to God. The latest word in the field Of
biology is that all nature, including the all
mother soil, is animated and hallowed
with the divine principle of life.
More than this, matter is indestrucible
and eternal. There Is not an atom that can
be lost in all the universe. For this reason
our bodies do not really die; they are In the
care of the angels Of the elements. ,..,.s,.
The peculiar cellular arrangement that
formed them into beautiful body may be
caused to disintegrate through the action
of the oxygen upon it. time may change the
position Of the atoms composing it, but tho
latter still contain within themselves the
sacred and eternal principle Of life as much
as does the soul, and they exist only TO enter
into new and perhaps more beautiful corn-
binations Of life. 81.
Epiotetls, representing the ancient atti-
tide Of religion toward the body, could give
it no higher classification than that OF
mud" Luther representing the theology
of his own day, spoke of the body as q
mess OF worms. Let us hope that In this
day, wherein science 10 educating theology
in holiness, the serviceable body, without
which soul could not be. will receive q
higher and more fitting tribute than that
which Luther and Epictetus gave to It, 80

NEW STYLE COAL MINING.
Shaft with Seven Foot Concrete Walls
Sunk Through Quicksands.


WnKFsBARRE, June 2o.-There is now
being completed just across the Susque-
hanna River from this city a mine shaft
which is different from any other in the
anthracite coal region and illustrates the
change in conditions from the old style
of mining Then the easiest and largest
veins were mined in the cheapest possible
manner. By the new system Of mining
all the veins are reached in q scientific
way at a cost much larger.
The shaft is being sunk by the Delaware.
Lackawanna and Western Coal Company.
on the fat land, the surface Of which is
only O few feet above low water mark Of
the river. In the early days of mining
1t would have been deemed the height of
folly to sink a shaft ip such a location.
owing to the trouble certain TO ensue with
water. The company found it necessary
In order to reach certain small veins which
years ago it was not deemed worth while
to mine to sink the shaft where il is.
1t Is being constructed in a novel manner.
As 1t passes through water. quicksand and
clay it is concreted. the walls being seven
feet in thickness to make them quite water
tight, and the shaft boing 4s feet 10 inches
long and II feet wide inside measurement.
1t will be divided into three compartments.
ono with car for hosting the coal, one for
an upcast airway and the other for a pump
and ladderway.
In sinking the shaft steel shoe 50 feet
Q inches long. and % feet wide and in the
form Of an oblong with rounded corners
was constructed. 1t was thirty inches high
and with fine cutting edge.
A fifteen foot pit was dug, and on the
bottom. placed perfectly level. this big
shoe was set The moulds Of wood for the
Of the shoe and built up to height Of twenty
feet. Then excavations were begun
within the shoe. As the work progressed
the weight Of the concrete and the shoe
drove it down steadily through the sand.
clay and quicksand the concrete wall being
renewed every five feet.
Great care had to be exercised TO have
the wall thus constructed sink evenly at
each side. The process was continued until
at a depth Of seventy-nine feet solid rock
was encountered.
The rock was then blasted out to within
two feet Of the outer edge Of the concrete
wall and to depth Of twenty feet and this
was filed In with concrete, making a solid
wall seven feet thick for depth OF seventy
nine feet and solid wall five feet thick
for a depth Of twenty feet. The rock ex-
cavation ca is now under way and the shaft
will be sunk to depth OF 8O5 feet and will
cost about S200, 900.
1t will tap some twelve veins. many Of
which will not be more than two OF three
feet thick. In these the rock above the
coal will have to be cut out until there is
space enough for mules and mine cars.
This work will all be expensive, but 1t will
enable the company TO get coal from veins
which In the early days It was not con-
.sidered profitable to mine, but which
with the improved methods now In vogue
can be made worth mining.
Il will probably take six months more to
complete the shaft. and then large breaker
will be erected.

PHYSICAL IMMORTALITY.
No Physiological Reason Why Man Should
Die-Body Is Self.Renewins.


From Health.
"The last enemy that shall be destroyed is
death, say the Scriptures, yet il some man
attempted seriously to reassert this ancient
truth to-day we would look upon him as q
mad prophet indeed. Yet the time will
come when men will be able to believe this
promise of the Bible, although they may
never be able to hope to see 1t literally
fulfilled.
Death some day will be acknowledged
to be as unnatural in the economy of the
creative plan as are sin and suffering. But
whether or not in some millennium period
mortal man will be able to forego the gross
process of physical dissolution in becoming
a spiritual body is a purely metaphysical
question that does not enter here. What
does interest us is the question, occupying
the greatest scientific minds to-day. whether
the body as such cannot be retained in
perfect condition indefinitely.
William A. Hammond, one OF thJ great
authorities in medical science and formerly
Surgeon-Genercl in the United States Army,
answers it by, saying: There is no physio-
logical reason why man should die
Thomas j. Allen, NJ. A., LII. D., writing
In similar strain, says: @The human body
Ia not like a machine which must wear out
by constant disintegration, for it is self
renewing. 1t is a simple, scientific fact
that we get an entirely new body every
few years, estimated al from three to seven.
Every day is a birthday, for the process Of
waste and renewal never ceases. Perfect
balance between elimination and renewal
would ayoid permanent waste.
There is no doubt that when we become
more enlightened and understand perfectly
the laws that govern and determine our
physical lives, and when we conform our
selves to these 9religiousy life will be
immeasurably prolonged.
Tho decay Of the body. as evidenced In
old age, is unnatural. The aesthetic within
us recoils in merely contemplating its
approach. We feel that there must be
something self-perpetrst tive in the change
when the strong color In q healthy man
and the fresh beauty in pure woman
the checks fades, when the brilliant light
within the eyes grows dim and the full,
red lips become pale and fallen.
Medical science has pointed out the
physiological cause Of these conditions
Probably the time will come when 1t will
be able to point out the manner OF avoiding
them.
We know that the body grows old because
OF the existence OF an imperfect balance
late3 and tho amount 1t Is ablo-to throw oil.
During youth the balance 10 perfect, be-
cause the body has more than it's normal
vitality and strength to throw off the waste
matter. But as we grow older this perfect
