This little gem is from the
Columbia Herald: In the
marble floor of the Church of
Nativity at Bethlehem, oldest
church in Christendom, is a
silver tablet with inscription
set He who would read the
words there may not stand erect
but must bend his head to come
within the church and bow upon
his knees to read that which
one may look upon with heart
thrill: Here was born of the
Virgin Mary Jesus the Christ =
Methinks it is truly so with all
in Christians calling. We may
not learn who and what the
Master is, we may not fit His
principles into our ever problem
until we have entered into His
courts with Bonded heart and
bowed upon our knees at His
affairs, have offered ourselves IN
humanity and contrition, our
lives, body, mind aud soul, a
loving sacrifice to Him and His
cause, which is our reasonable
service"

MAGNETIC BRAKE FOR TRAINS
New Device, Il ls Claimed, Can b
Applied by Hand.

A magnetic track-brake recently de
veloped by the British Thomson-Hous
ton Company is interesting because II
may be applied by hand and is in
tended for service and emergency
stops. Says the Tramway and Rail
way World Qondon), as distracted In
the Electrical Review New York;:
THE brake consists Of two steel
shoes, each formed Of a number oil
poles placed so that they alternately
become north and south poles when
the current is passed through a single
exciting coil. Excited in this way, the
shoes are drawn down upon the raj
midway between the wheels Of the
car with q force of several tons. Elk
citing current is furnished by the
motors, running as generators, thus
rendering the brake independent OF
the trolley circuit. Between the two
shoes is connected a channel iron and
a system of brake-levers and chains
attached to brake spindles at each end
OF the car to enable the shoes to be
pressed down upon the track by hand
ir the usual manner Of track-brakes. It
is intended to use the brake in this
way for controlling the speed of the
car on down grades, and for slowing
up under usual conditions. When thus
used the a can be stopped either by
increasing the pressure due to the
hand-lever, or by exciting the electro.
magnets. The thrust o~ccasioned by
the %retarding action of the brake is
taken by a tongue-shaped steel brack,
ct, which is bolted to the truck and
engages with jaws on the sides of the
magnet. The wearing shoes of the
brake are attached to the poles Of the
magnet, and the bolts may be renewed
when necessary. The exciting coils
are entirely inclosed in a watertight
case
