A HeIpfui AlIusion,

There were times when the Rev.
Mr.. Pomfret felt that he failed to
reach the hearts of his Pensioners.
Sometimes he even failed to reach
their ears. Therefore he was much
cheered by something he saw in the
Elton pew one Sunday morning.
81 couldn't help wondering,
Mr.. Elton" he said difidently when
he met his parishioner the next
afternoon, "what it was in my SER
mon that-er-particularly caught
your attention yesterday morning.
I happened to be looking your way,
and I saw your face light up, and
you slapped your hand against your
knee as if something pleased you"
''It did," said Mr.. Elton cordially.
81 felt very grateful to you. When
you spoke of Simeon it came over
me in flash that it was at Simeon
Davis l left my umbrella the last
time 1 went to town. It's been lost

GROWTH OF CRYSTALS.
A Mystery of Nature That Is Puz-
zIe to the Scientists.

zle to the ScientiSCS.
One of the greatest mysteries in
the world is the growth of crystals,
and one Of the most delightful occu-
pations of men Of science is the
search for the crystallic forms that
alora The museums of geology and
mineralogy. There is something al
most startling in the suggestion of
lifelike forces presented by the reg
ular shapes of many crystals.
There is remarkable resem-
blance between crystalline growth
and the growth of animals and
plants, especially with reference to
the power of healing and repairing
injuries.
If some Of the lowest and sim
plest forms of animal life are torn
asunder they are not killed, but
each separate part grows into per-
feet animal form. In plants this
power is much more completely de-
veloped, while crystals possess it to
an astonishing degree. 1t has even
been shown that crystal that has
been injured will under some cir
cumstances suspend it's growth over
the remainder Of its surface until
the injured part has been repaired.
Yet there is no real life in the crys-
tai, but simply a force that causes
its particles to arrange themselves
in geometric forms.
Some crystals, it is believed, have
had their growth suspended during
millions of years, after which enor-
nous lapse of time the growth has
been renewed. Such process would
be impossible to animals and plants,
although some imaginative story
writer's have treated their readers
to wonderful accounts of suspended
animation in man.
In one respect, it has been point
ed out, crystals possess a great ad-
vantage over human beings-they
are able to renew their youth. This
is not because they have discovered
a counterpart of the marvellous
fountain that Ponce de Leon so
vainly searched for, but because the
forces of crystallization are able to
renew their action even after the
greater part of a crystal has been
destroyed through age or accident.
