ChiId's Popularity Explained.

A winning lottery ticket of $780,
900, in connection with the Mobiles
Bank was recently presented for
payment at the State Bank in st.
Petersburg, and it now transpires
that the owner is an eight-year-old
orphan, an inmate of the Orphanage
at Pskoff. The lottery ticket was her
sole possession Her relatives have
hitherto done nothing for the child
but when the news of her good for
tune became known they were one
and all eager to adopt her. The au
thorities have placed her in the
charge of an arch-priest, a distant con
nection of her father.

But just as soon as darkness set in
and the captain began to suspect
that icebergs or other dangerous OBJ
jects were close at hand, it would be-
come useful. OF its operation under
such circumstances Sir Hiram says:
"It should be used constantly send
ing out the blasts in every direction.
If the sea were perfectly clear, the
blasts sent out would be recorded at
the very instant of their production.
but no echo would be returned other
than that due to the waves of the sea,
which would provide zigzag line OF
small amplitude; but if there should
happen TO be an object of any con-
siderable size at distance no greater
than two or three miles, the zigzag
line on the paper would be changed.
the amplitude of the waves would be
greater and would be very noticeable.
ITO make sure, the blasts could be
repeated several times; and then, if
the result should be always the same,
it would indicate the presence of some
object, and the length of paper be-
tween the primary blast and the echo
would indicate the distance that tho
object was from the ship. 1t might
be so arranged that one inch of paper
represented mile.
THE receiving instruments can be
placed anywhere on the ship where
they can be turned in the same di-
rection that the siren is turned. and
there may be as many of them as
desirable"
Sir Hiram points out that there are
vastly more accidents to ships caused
by running ashore than by collision.
and that a coast does not need to pre-
sent very bold sea front to produce
a very strong echo" on his appara-
tus. If ship provided with his ap-
paratus was approaching the coast Of
ireland. he says. the echo would be
sufficiently strong to show itself over
distance of at least ten miles.

In Loving Memory.

Mrs. Mollie Lynn was born February
IS, 1868, and died at her home near Mot
on March II, 1912, from an attack of
pneumonia.
The enemy that sooner or later we
must all encounter has swept over the
home of Mr.. J. B. Lynn and taken away
his companion, and left his children
without mother. How sad life is
without her smiling face, and how full
of sorrow must be your hearts when you
recall the thought that you can never
again hear her sweet voice on earth.
We know, dear children, that earth
seems dark and desolate without your
precious mother. She spoke to her
companion in regard to her death, say
ing she didn't dread death, though she
hated to leave her loved ones, requesting
him to take care Of her baby.
She was member of the Methodist
Episcopal Church for years. About
1905 she joined the Holiness Church.
We feel assured that she is at rest.
Cheer up, bereayed ones, and remem-
Der that Jesus said "In his word l will
be comfort, in time of trouble" Her
place indeed is vacant in our midst, but
what consolation that we can find our
loved ones in our Fathers Mansion fair,
on the sunny shores of an eternal day.
The bereaved ones have the sincere
sympathy of the writer.

In mansion fair and bright,
We must be true to Jesus

In substance that is what Uncle Sans
postal regulations say. In other words,
publisher is only permitted to use the
mails to forward his paper, or other
publication, to bona Jfde subscribers.
In the event the regulation is violated
the post Office authorities bar the pub
Usher from circulating his publication
at newspaper rates. That would just
about take his living away from him,
wouldn't it?
The Government holds that the
subscriber Of weekly newspaper who
is twelve months in arrears is not bona
tde subscriber. Then it must be very
clear to all that we cannot grant credit
on subscription for a term in excess of
twelve months. This much we are will
