MUD TAKES UP THE OXYGEN.
Air in Cold Storage Plant Too Poor
to Support Combustion.

Air in Cold Storage Plant Too Poor
to Support Combustion.
1t was recently noticed in a cold stor-
age plant that candles or lamps began
to burn with a feeble flame as soon as
they were brought into, the room and
that in many parts of 1t they were ex-
tinguished. A match could be Lit, but
the wax would not ignite
In the corner of the storeroom was a
disused well from which gas issued
and it was at first supposed that car
bon dioxide was being distributed into
the air from this well.
But this was not borne out by analy-
sis of the air in the room and from
the well, for the amount OF carbon
dioxide was only slightly more than is
present in normal air and was quite
insufficient to have affected the com
bustion of candle.
Samples OF the air taken from differ
ent parts of the room contained only
us to III per cent Of oxygen, or from
80 to "a per cent less than is present
III uOTudl dlI. 1Ht Jay ScAA Ii tA4C oil
in the shaft OF the well amounted to
no more than SO and SO per cent and
other experiments confirmed the con-
clusion that the air in the storeroom
was ordinary air containing less than
its proper proportion Of oxygen, owing
to admixture of air deprived OF its
oxygen which issued from the well.
The source OF the impoverished air
from the well was finally traced to
operations close by in which
air was being used. The
air must have found its way through
the soil wherever it was sufficiently por-
Gus and so into the shaft of the well
and on it's passage through the soil
must have been deprived of part Of its
oxygen by contact with some substance
such as pyrites.
Evidence in support of the correctness
Of this conclusion was furnished by the
analysis of the mud from another well |
shaft near the first. This mud was
found to contain pyrites and air left |
IN contact with it for some weeks was
of almost the whole Of its /
oxygen.

from is the card.

story. Most of them are cheap affairs.

be laden with tenderness and sympathy
and love. We lay flowers on the grave,

gave pain to the one sleeping there
rises in judgment against US; while
every word of love, of help, of cheer,
comes back laden with sweetness and
inspiration, yying in beauty with the

DR.. W. S. Sweet, missionary at Hang
show, China, leads a class Of young
men (natives) in mission study. When
his class was studying the subject of
missions in Mexico, they took up an
Offering for the Mexican work, which
amounted to $40. This money was sent
to DR.. Sloan in Mexico. and en- route
was in a wreck somewhere, and the
letter containing the money was near
ly destroyed by fire. But there was
enough of the letter to take 1T TO its
destination with the money, and DR..
Sloan, in acknowledging the receipt Of
the money, said that it was the first
money contributed toward the estab-
lishment of a theological seminary in
Mexico.
Surely God had interviewed to save
this offering for the great purpose for
which 1t was made.

nT,, and "P."

These are the letters used by one
of Gods handmaidens to record her
experience with His promises, 'I'' and
"P."
All intelligent Christians should base
their petitions on some definite promise
of Gods Word, and plead His gracious
obligation to hear. This woman did so.
She brought her desires to the Lord,
making mention Of some particular pas
sage Of Scripture which warranted her
in making the request. She poured out
her heart In humble and believing Pc
titIon, and left it with Him, making in
the margin alongside the promise the
letter 1T" BY this she meant tried"
She was putting that promise to a be-
lieving test.
When God answered the desire of
her heart, she added to the marginal
record "and P" BY this she meant
"and proved" This simple and beauti-
full treatment of Gods Word is full Of
suggestion to us

Of the promises; and when Christian
has not only prayed in the right spirit,
but has watched for and found the an

his prayer, he will experience grow

the Joy and power of "T'' and 'P."

Slipping Away.

They are slipping away-these sweet,
swift years,
Like leaf on the current cast;
With never break in their rapid flow,
We watch them as one by one they go
Into the beautiful past
As silent and swift as the weaver's thread,
Or an arrows flying CLEAN,
As soft as the dangerous breezes hid,
That lift the willows golden lid,
And ripple the CLASSY stream.
As light as the breath of the thistle
down,
As fond as lovers dream,
As pure as the flush of the sea shells
throat,
As sweet as the wood birds wooing note,
So tender and sweet they seem.
One after another we see them pass
Down the dim-lighted stair;
We hear the sound of their steady tread
In the steps Of centuries long since dead,
As beautiful and as fair.
There are only few years left to live,
Shall we waste them in idle strifeE
Shall we trample under our ruthless feet
Those beautiful blossoms, fair and sweet,
By the dusty ways of life?
There are only a few swift years-ah let
No envious taunts be heard;
Make Iife's fair pattern of rare design,
And fill up the measure with loves sweet
wine,
But never an angry word.

Daughters of Eve, your mother did not

Fate.


Two shall be born the whole wide world
apart;
And speak in different tongues, and have
no thought
Each of the others being, and no heed;
And these DER unknown seas to unknown
lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying
death,
And all unconsciously shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one
end
That, one day, out of darkness, they shall
meet
And read life's meaning in each others
eyes.
And two shall walk some narrow way of
life
So nearly side by side, that should one
turn
Ever so little space to left or right
They needs must stand acknowledged
face to face
And yet, with wistful eyes that never
meet,
With cropping hands that never clasp, and
lips
Calling in vain to ears that never hear,
They seek each other all their weary
days
And die unsatisfed-and this is Fate
