The F. xact Spot.

When illicit distilling was common in the highlands there was an old man who went about the country repairing whisky pots.
 The gauger met him one day and. surmising that he had been doing re- pairs at no great distance. asked what he would take to inform him (the gauger) where he repaired the last whisky pot.
 Och" said the old man, shell shust talk hauf a croon."
 "Done." retorted the gauger Here is your money, but be careful to tell me correctly"
 "Och, she'll no tell the gentleman a lee"
 Getting the money, the old man quietly remarked:

Baking Angel Food.

A woman whose angel food Is fa- nous says that there are a few things she always bears in mind when prepac- Ing this delectable cake. The oven must be slow at first. but one that gradually increases in temperature. Quite unlike the case when baking other cake, the oven door may be opened without dan ger of affecting the cake this makes 1t much simpler to adjust the heat of the oven. The pan in which it Is baked must be most carefully lined with par affin paper. If the cake Is baked two or three days before 1t is to be eaten 1t will be better.

HEALTH VERY POOR---
 RESTORED BY PE-RU-NA
Catarh Twenty-Five Years--
 Had a Bad Cough

Miss Sophia kittleson, Evanston, H., writes:
 "I have been troubled with catarrh for nearly twenty-five years and have tried many cures for it, but obtained very little help.
 Then my brother advised me to try Peruna, and I did.
 "My health was very poor at the time I began taking Peruna. My throat was very sore and I had bad cough.
 "Peruna has cured me. The chronic oatarh is gone and my health is very much improved"
 l recommend Peruna to all my friends who are troubled as I was"
 PtRuNA TABltTS:-Some people pre- fer tablets, rather than medicine in a fluid form. Such people can obtain Pe- runa tablets, which represent the medicinal ingredients of Peruna. Each tablet equals one average dose of Pe- runa.

Prof. Perciyal Lowell's articles on Mars which have been appearing re- gently in the Century are to form the basis of his great book, Mars the Abode of Life" The articles are to be extensively revised and enlarged by the inclusion of much material of scientific character. The author takes up the story of evolution after the Formation of the planetary mass and follows It through the period in which 1t Is capable of sustaining life.
 In this year of the approaching ter centenary of Mllton's birth 1t Is in- teresting to know that in England there Is to be a great pagenat offer- ing a part of "COmus," written by the great poet for children. The chief original performers in 1t were the children of the Earl of Bridgewater at Ludlow Castle In the year 1884. In these days of determined efforts to bring more happiness within the reach of people by offering entertainments of various kinds, 1t is of popular sig nificance that a stern old Puritan like Milton did not consider graceful verse, skilled dancing and good music to be at war with the earnestness of pur- poseful and worthy living.
 Charles c. D. Roberts Is best known in England for his nature books. He tells an anecdote which illustrates the old saying that man If he Is to write good books must write what lies nearest his heart, not merely what he tries to gather Into his head A few years ago he went to London to study English life and society for a novel. He studied diligently and sat down in London to write about 1t all. But what he kept ,eeing was the Ca nadian forest, and the result of 1t all was not a story of London but book on Nature In North America" Since then he has given up studying social life at large and contents himself with writing the things he knows about nature. Prof. Roberts new book which has just been brought out is called "The house In the Water, a Book of Wild Life"

HAVE GOOD MAP OF MARS.
Astronomers Know Considerable About Earth's Nearest Neighbor.

i Astronomers Know Considerable
 About Earth's Nearest Neighbor. ] We can draw all the geographical contigurations, seas, coasts, islands, i peninsulas mouths of rivers or canals of Mars with accuracy, and We can anticipate what district will appear in 1 the lens of the telescope, for the length of the rotation of the planet is known 1 to the hundredth part of a second AS the planet turns upon its axis more 1 slowly than ours, the calendar of the inhabitants of Mars is composed of 1 two consecutive years of 66S days and bisextile one of 669 days.
 1 It is not many years since Mars en- l tered into the sphere of our observa- tion. And one can also say that there is but a small number of the inhabit- ants of this world who have observed i it in all its details, and of these the most experienced is Signor Schiapa- relli, director of the observatory at Milan.
 The geographical map of the planet Mars has just been made with infinite 1 care by the above mentioned astrono- mer. One might really consider it a terrestrial sphere of continents, is- lands, coasts. peninsulas, gulfs, waters. Moreover, clouds, rains, inundations, snows, seasons. winters and summers, springs and autumns prevail, as they do here, and the intensity of the sea sons Is absolutely the same as with us the inclination of the axis being the same as ours
 Our problem of the habitability of the stars Is limited to observing the celes- tial bodies upon which the conditions are such that organized matter can ex- ist in a durable form.
 In the planet Mars the density of a cubic meter of water, earth or any matter is only the seventeenth of what it is here, and the weight is only .3s A kilogram transported to Mars would, therefore, only weigh 316 grains there and a man or woman weighing 70 kilos would only weigh 26 there. The years are nearly twice as long as on our own planet and the cli- matclogical conditions seem much more favorable than they are here.

There need never be any doubt about what God will do.

 The man who loves sin is a sinner, no matter how much he pays the preacher.

 The true man is he who, having failed yesterday. will gird up his loins and go at it again today.
 God has spoken to many men, but only here and there is there one wbo is able to tell just what He said.
