they are thus nestled" series of
them occupying little more space than
one would take up. The tank is filed
with water or with some specially
prepared fire-fighting fluid, and holds
enough to insure each bucket being
filed as it is drawn out. There is no
time lost in selling a bucket and run
ming to another place to fill it, and
everyone knows that speed is an es-
sential feature in fighting flames. The
apparatus not only does away with an
unsightly row of buckets, but expe-
dites the work of combating the blaze
to an important degree.

Herald Blasts.

II shall not want" is always the
song of the soul in which there is no
doubt.
Whoever gives his body to be
burned, and has not love, throws
away his ashes.
No greater mistake can be made
than to make the accumulation Of
riches the first business of life.
The lantern that only shines when
the sun shines will never be of any
service to those who are lost.
Unless we say "Our Father" in our
money getting, we cannot worship
God by saying it in church.
Without consistent Christian life
to back up the preacher, there is no
use in ringing the church bell
The preacher who puts thought
into his sermons will, sooner or later,
find himself preaching to people who
think.
1t hurts more to live day without
prayer than without bread.
Suppose there are hypocrites in the
church, does that make your SHINING
any safer?
The man who loves sin is a sinner.
no matter how much he pays for q
pew in church.
Begin every day with this thoughts
What happens to-day will be what
God sees is best.
The Christian never has to count
his cash to find out how much he has
to be thankful for.
A cold church will soon begin TO
warm up when Gods fire is burning
In the preachers heart.
Isn't there strong touch of hy-
pocrisy in thanking God for the
bread and finding fault with the
ok?-Home Herald.

We need not only the risen Christ
but the returned Christ; not only the
historic Christ, nor the heavenly, but
the spiritual, the intimate, the hus-
band Of the soul in its daily vigor,
its daily conflict, its daily fear. its

we need, a Lord and Master, Lover

salvation, Conscience without our

partly raised, but when a person sits
on them they close and set in opera

which registers the length of time a
person is seated, the number of per-
sons who use the seat and the distance
covered during the time the said seats
are occupied. The aforementioned fig
ures are obtained by means Of chain

Some idea of the general use Of
false teeth may be gathered from the
statement that twenty millions of
them are exported from America to
England every year. When we con-
slider that probably not more than
half the inhabitants of Great Britain
indulge in the luxury of false teeth,
no matter how many grinders they
may have lost, these figures would
seem to indicate that nearly every
one in England suffers from defective
or missing teeth. AS far as observa-
ton goes, the United States is no bet
ter off than England in this respect.

NEEDLE, it practices a social tyranny
more formidable than many kinds of

If the trolley companies that are
