LARGE MONDAY CONGREGATION.

A large congregation was present to
hear the sermon at the revival meeting
last night. Come and See" was the
text Christ and his promised saliva
ton wait to be received and be made
manifest in personal experience. Miss
Nichols illustrated her theme so fully
that anyone would feel that the gospel
is truly the power God put into saliva
ton to them that believe. The solo
was sung by Mrs. A. L Spohn and was
unusually effective. Several persons
made public confession of the faith and
discipleship toward Jesus. Two ex-
pressed their desire to enter the fell
lowship of the church. Much hope is
expressed concerning the meeting to-
night.

thirty-second of an inch in 145 hours.
But in the compound turbines now
used this erosion is practically elm
mated, so that brass and copper blades
can be used. Advance has been made
In the reduction Of steam per horse
power. In 1897 the Turbinia con-
sumed 16 pounds per shaft horse
power; in 1901 the King Edward con-
sumed the same amount; but In 1907
the Lusitania consumed only 12
pounds and the Mauretania 11h
pounds. In large turbines there is
loss of about 80 per cent in the total
energy, but 1t may be possible to re-
duce this.
The growing use of metallic fila
ments for electric lamps, formed of
the rare metals tantalum and tung-
stem, attracts much attention to those
metals. Tantalum is pure white and
as hard as the best steel. When hot
1t can be rolled, hammered and drawn
out into wire. It's tensile strength
exceeds, that of steel. For lamp fila
ments 1t is drawn into wire hardly
more than one five-hundredth of an
inch In diameter. Its electrical resist
ance is much less than that of carbon,
so that the filaments have to be much
longer than the ordinary carbon fila
ments when they are used with the
usual 110-volt lamps. Tantafum lamps
have high efficiency and long life, and
give brilliant white light. Sometimes
when a 'filament breaks 1t can be
mended by tapping the lamp while
the current is on. The ends coming
into momentary contact are welded.
Tantalum melts at 1900 degrees Cent?
grade Tungsten melts at 5000 de-
grees Centigrade. Like tantalum, it
has much lower resistance than car
bon. Tungsten filaments are some
what delicate, and must be handled
carefully.

Eject of Color. ON Animals.

The effect of color upon mind Is
most easily noticeable in dumb ami
mails, because they make no effort to
curb or control their emotions. Wave
a red flag at bull and he becomes
violently angry. Shake a red shawl
In front of a turkey gobbler and he
will storm around rfearfully. l made
an experiment in the country one sum-
mer to see If this same fact held true
of other animals. On my farm had
an enormously fat, lazy pig that dis
liked nothing so much as to move.
All day long 1t used to lie asleep in
the sunshine, and sometimes even the
attraction of food could not bulge 1t.
l took number of pieces of silk of
the same quality, but of different
shades, and, after waking the pig,
waved each strip of silk in front Of
1t. For the blue and green 1t never
moved, but when / waved the red and
orange stripes 1t jumped to its feet,
stamped about and appeared to be
thoroughly angry. Time and again I
repeated this experiment and always
with the same result-Frank Alvah
