An Effective PRAYER,

Years ago" says well knowa ac'
tor. II appeared in an amateur per.
Torrance of play that had distinc
religious flavor. The leading player
had studied for the ministry and had
a deep and sonorous voice. In one OF
the scenes the lights were supposed IL
be turned down and a raging storm
simulated The accompanying lines
were:
30 Lord, deliver US from the pow.
ers Of darkness
THE leading man spoke the lines.
but darkness didn't follow lie spoke
them again, and still the stage was
distressingly light. Finally he roared
40 Lord. deliver us from the pow
er Of darkness and also give that fool
gas man sense enough to turn down
the lights
"The gas lights went down, and the
audience roared, Pittsburg Chronicle

Pure candy is good for children. Pure
sugar is good for grown people. Or
course there are exceptions to every
rule. If the doctor prescribes q diet
and orders patient to refrain from
sweets the patient is bound to obey

physician and paying him for sug-
gestons if tIaa latter are treated with
indifference? People in ordinary health
need not be afraid to crafty an appe-

have looked into the matter have been
telling Us lately that soldiers on the
march hold out better if they have
rations of sugar than if their food
omits this useful commodity. 4 fond

The Bible as a petectivs.

The Bible was used until quite re-
cent years for the detection of thieves.
DR.. Jessopp told in 1852 how there
were still persons living who had wit
messed the ordeal to which an East
Anglican parson subjected his servants
when his cash box was missing. He
ordered them all into his bedroom and
ranged them around the walls. From
the center of the ceiling hung the rope
used to lower collins into the church
yard graves. wound round a Bible.
from the leaves of which projected
the church door key, This vas sent
spinning round. and the one at whom
the key pointed when it stopped was
proclaimed as the thief Happily the
man thus marked out was able to
prove an alibi But this did not con
vince the servants that the test was Il
bad one. They only concluded that the
thief was not there.--Lopdon Chron.

foggy atmosphere.
Nearly everybody is familiar with
the beam of searchlight and knows
why the beam Is visible. While LIGHT
itself cannot be seen unless it strikes
the eve, its visibility being due TO par
ticles in the air which really do reflect
the light TO the eye On foggv
night, If one will notice. the beam
seems to come abruptly,to an end il
the light is pointed upward 1t does
this instead of gradually finding away
into nothing, as it does pointed hori-
zontaly on uniformly foggy night
The thing is rather puz2ling 10 one
first seeing it. but the reason is not far
TO seek. Where the end of the beam
seems to be there Is tie place the fog
ends, for the beam cannot be visible to
us unless there are small particles In
its path. This is of great help to sail
ors in judging of the state of the
weather. for they can tell exactly how
thick the frog is. or, rather, how deep it
IL. They cantalso tell by throwing the
llght horizontally whether the fog Is
universal or occurring only In patches,
for If extending TO Il great distance the
beam gradually gets DINNER and dim

lighter in patches, and If it goes
