 Sermon by Rev. c. H. Ewing.
 At the First Congregational church Sunday morning the pastor, Rev. G. H Ewing, preached an interesting and helpful sermon from the text, Lake Q, 29: And as he prayer the fashion of his countenance was altered. The fol- lowing points were made and dis cusse6:
 Answers to our prayers do not al- ways come as we expect. but accord ing to the wisdom of God.
 The significance of the transfgured face was a spiritual triumph and as applied to us is the losing of my way and the finding of Gods way. We all have definite mission in life to fulfil and we must find it. Christ found his at Mt. Hermon.
 The first requisite of a peaceful and triumphant life if to discover the mis- sion God gives us, and to have the grace given us to pursue it.
 The transfigured face stands for one great reality in life communion.
 The supreme fact in the life of Christ was God; the supreme duty in the life of Christ was keeping himself in har- niony with God; the supreme result of his keeping himself in harmony with God was his God likeness or the trans figured face.
 Our aim should be q supreme fel.. lowship with Jesus Christ. We all may find our Mt. Hermon, and that will be our meeting with our Saviour and our transfigured face.

Curious Trees.

Among the curiosities of tree life Is
the sofar. or whistling tree, of Nubia.
When the winds blow over this tree
it gives out fiutelike sounds, playing
away to the wilderness for hours at
time strange, weird melodies. 1t is the
spirit of the dead singing among the
branches, the natives say, but the sci
entific white man says that the sounds
are due to a myriad of small holes
which an insect bores in the spines
OF the branches. The weeping tree of
the Canary islands is another boreal
freak. This tree in the dryest wealth
er will rain down showers from it's
haves. and the natives gather up the
water from the pool formed at the foot
of the trunk and find it pure and
fresh. The tree exudes the water from
innumerable pores at the base of the
leaves.

SOLONS OF NATION
BEGIN THEIR WORK
Sixty-FirSt Congress Meets in
Regular Session.
BRILLIANT THR0NG PRESENT
House Greets Speaker Cannon with
Great Applause-Many "Taft Pol
icy" Bills introduced in Both
Chambers.
BY EDWARD 3. CLARK.

Washington, Dec. 6.-At noon to-day
Vice President Sherman in the Senate
and Speaker Joseph G.. Cannon in the
House called to order the Sixty-first
congress of the United States for its
first regular session. Really the first
session of this congress was the extra
ordinary one of last spring called to
revise the tariff
Some interest was lacking in the
proceedings of the first day in the cap
itol because at the beginning of the
extraordinary session in March last
the speaker of the House was elected
Moreover, before the extraordinary
session was ended Speaker Cannon
appointed all the committees which
are to take legislation under consid-
Grafton for the next two winters. The
appointment of the committees ended
the campaign on the part of the mem
bers for choice chairmanships and. if
the chairmanships were not forthcom-
ing, for seats in the more important
subsidiary bodies of the House.
Ready for Work at Once.
The members have had time to get
over jealousies and rivalries and so it
is that, so far as committee work is con-
cerned, the House not only is ready
to proceed at once to consider legisla-
ton, but most of the members have
brought themselves into a frame of
mind to do what they are called upon
to do without regard to their past feel
ings of disappointment and perhaps
anger.
AS is always the case on the open
ing day of congress, admission to the
House and Senate galleries was by
card and only those fortunate enough
to know senators and representatives
sufficiently well to secure admission
tickets were allowed to witness the
proceedings.
Galleries Are Crowded
The galleries of both House and
Senate were jammed with people All
classes of Washington society were
represented in the throng of visitors.
The diplomatic gallery in the House
and in the Senate as well, was filled
to its fullest capacity with ambassa-
dors, ministers, attaches and the la
dies of the different legations. Mem
bers of the families of the president
and of the vice-president of the United
States occupied seats in the executive
galleries. and the cabinet and judici-
ary and army and navy circles were
well represented.
BY rule which was adopted not
long ago. flowers are barred from the
floor of the House excepting when
they are to be used as a tribute to
the memory to some deceased mem

Country Neelecting the Children.

If the percentage of tuberculous chill.
dren recently ascertained by an inves-
tigation in Stockholm, Sweden Q.61
per cent? were applied to the schools
of the United States there would be
273,700 children between the ages of
eight and fifteen who are positively af-
fected with tuberculosis, according to
a statement of the National Associa-
tion for the study and prevention Of
tuberculosis. AS contrasted with this
figure, there are only IL open-air
tuberculosis schools in operation in
the entire country, and nine more un'
der consideration. At the lowest esti-
mate, even with all the schools now in
operation and those proposed, accom-.
modations will not be provided for
s1ur-tenths of one per cent. of the
children who need this special treat
ment.
