Enqland,s Great Seal.

The great seal of England is, says
the London Chronicle, a more elabo-
rate article than most people imagine.
1t costs about $500 to make it, and 1t
consists of two heavy silver plates, in
one of which is cut the die for the
front of the seal and in the other, that
for the back. When the seal Is to be
affixed to a document a lump OF wax
is softened in hot water and cooled in
cold water. after which it is placed be-
tween the two plates and pressed. 1t
comes out in the shape of disk, with
an impression on each side.
Formerly there was an official attach
ed to the seal who was quite as proud
Of his Office as the lord chancellor was
Of his. That was "Chaffwax," whose
sole business was to melt the wax and
to take the impressions of the great
seal as often as required. The writer
remembers the last of the "Chaffwax-
es," rosy checked old gentleman who
lived long to enjoy the pension that a
grateful country granted him for his
important services. Those services are
now performed by an unnamed subor-
dinate In the chancellor's office.

After Death,

1t is irrational to think death ends
all, for then life is gone and annihi-
lated, and it is just as though 1t had
never been. A life can In nowise be
destroyed by death. What has once
been experienced Is an eternal and In.
delible constituent of reality never
more to be erased or altered. 1t is a
foolish doubt which Karl Moor ex.
presses with the pistol in his hand, "If
the paltry pressure of this paltry thing
makes the wise man and the fool, the
coward and the hero. the noble and the
villain, equal That cannot be. Death
sewers the thread of the earthly life,
but the content of life can neither be
altered nor annihilated by 1t. Reality
is eternal In its essence. Nothing that
Is real can. to quote Angelus Silesius,
ever perish and cease to be.-Professor

lin, in "A System of Ethics"

How to Stay q erudas.

II forgave you once, and won't for
give you again" This is what we
heard one brother say to another who
had unwittingly broken his chisel for
the second time. He would not listen
to an explanation. you shall not use
another of my TOOLS" he continued.
The next day he wanted to borrow a
book from that brother. But before
he asked for 1t he remembered he had
said he would not lend his tools any
more. He said to himself: well,
don't care If | did. He owes me
something for breaking the tool, so l
will just ask for the book" And he
did. Certainly you can have 1t and
keep it as long as you want it," replied
the brother without one bit of grudge
In his heart. The effect was good, for
the very next day he asked his brother
to 90 with him into the tool room. and
there he said, You can use any of
them If you wish. only please be care
full not to break them" The grudge
had disappeared. Christian Herald.

Balzac,a Nav.

Jules Sandeau related that one time
while living in Paris Balzac locked
himself up in his room for twenty-five
days and twenty-five nights, refusing
to see any one and keeping the cur
tains closed and the lights continually
burning even in broad daylight The
only human being he saw during this
time was his servant, whom he rang
for when he felt the need Of food,
which he washed down with numerous
cups Of coffee. He would throw him
self on his bed only when entirely ex-
hausted from lack of sleep, and he re-
manned in complete ignorance of what
was transporting outside, the state Of
the weather and even of the time and
day Of the week. He only freed him
self from this voluntary captivity
when he had written the word END"
on the last page of the manuscript he
began when he entered his prison.
