Mr.. BEECHER AT A FUNERAL
Famous Man as He Saw Him in

Though for 4 period of nearly 80

memorable TO me, says a correspoE-

of any decay or infirmity CT age was

yelled but consummate art OF elocu-
ton that delieateIy carried the impress
sion that the words were not mans

Comforter

voice, soft, rich, iCelodious, seemed
without the least effort on his part 10

than a voice. yet with power that
made every syllable he uttered clear

that filled the house and the wide YER

first and broken tones of sorrow. but
presently he mounted up, as on wings,
as lark rises skyward, into the re-
gions of Christian victory and hope,
taking us all with him; and sang-I
can liken it TO nothing elsa song
of the resurrection, sweet triumphant,
uplifting beyond description; thence
passing into prayer, in which the
strain assembled TO still further

house alone were real.

When Gas Was Used for Street Lights

The first street to be Illuminated by
gas was the Golden lane, in London
when the new method of lighting was
first used 100 years ago on August I6,
1907. Pail Mall was lighted by gas
in 1909, and between 1913 and 1920
the system was installed throughout
London. Gas lighting was introduced
in New York in 1928. and in Paris in
1919. The first experiments with IL
Illuminating gas were made III 1892 by
Mr. Murdoch, in Cornwall, England. III
1903 the Lyceum theater, in London,
was lighted with gas. and in the fol-
lowing year a Manchester mill adopt
ed the system. The cost OF illuminat-
ing gas continued high until kerosene
and electricity forced a gradual re-
duction. In 1860 the price per thou
sand cubic feet ranged from $3.50 in
Pittsburgh, to ST. Philadelphia had the
lowest rate of any big city. except
Pittsburgh, $2.15. IN New York and
Boston the rate was $3.50, and a So
rate prevailed in Chicago, st. Louis,
Detroit. Milwaukee and most of the
middle western cites. In Maine, up
per New York and Canada, the rates
ranged even higher, as high as ST..

Temptstion.

No matter how we may safeguard

free from those sudden ruahes of temp
tation which at times seem almost un-
comfortable, at well as inexplicable.
Perhaps they are reyolts Of nature,
scorning restraint and violently self
asserting. Nearly always they are re
lated to the egotism that, in its subor-
dination to social law, often feels itself
limited and Initiated They ought to
make us more patient with one an

In humility. 1t is perhaps due TO our
egotism that so many Of these lessons
are lost. We cannot reflect too often
