For Steadfast Peace.

God puts within our reach the pow.
err of helpfulness, the ministry of pity;
he is eve1 ready to increase his grace
= in our hearts, that as we live and act
among all the sorrows of the world
we may learn by slow degrees skill
and mystery of consolation. IF We
know these things, happy are We if We
do them" There is no surer way of
steadfast peace in this world than the
active exercise of pity; no happier
temper of mind and work than the
lowly watching to see If we can lessen
any misery that is about US; nor is
there any better way of growth in
faith and love.-Francis Paget.

To Clean Glass Oven Doors.

Glass front ovens are frequently
complained of as not sufficiently light
and clear to be satisfactory. Such
glass doors will do their duty If the
housekeeper does hers, for the glass
needs frequent thorough washing on
both sides with some fine securing
powder or securing soap; ordinary
soap and water will not accomplish the
results desired, as in baking the fumes
and steam generated sometimes make
coating difficult to remove. In addi-
ton small searchlight may be used
where stoves are not well placed for
light.

TRUE FOSSIL FORESTS,
Yellowstone Park'a Array OF Stony
Relics Of Volcano Activity.

Yellowstone park'a Array Of Stony
Relics Of Volcano Activity.
Remarkable fossil forests exist In
Yellowstone park, the msst remark
able, It is believed, Of the several fossil
forests which have been discovered
there are others In Egypt In California
and In Arizoua-because in the Yel-
lowstone most Of the tces were en-
tombed in their original upright posi-
don and not found recumbent and scat
tered about the ground.
In Arizona, for instance, the fossil
led trunks have evidently been car
ried a long distance from where they
originally grew.
In the Yellowstone the trees now
stand where they grew and where they
are entombed by the outpouring OF
various volcanic materials.
Now as the softer rocks surrounding
them are gradually worn away they
are left standing erect en- the steep hill
sides, just as they stood when they
were living. In fact, it Is difficult at 8
little distance to distinguish some Of
these fossil trunks from the hchen Gov
cred stumps Of kindred living species
Such an aggregation Of fossil trunks Is
therefore well entitled to be called a
true fossil forest.
It should not be supposed, however,
that these trees still retain their limbs
and similar branches, for the mass Of
volcanic material falling on them strip-
ped them down to bare, upright trunks.

Tho Dancing Mania.

The dancing mania Of the middle
ages came on the heels Of the great
plague known as the I''black death.
It was some sort Of nervous disease
and Is now supposed to have. been
what Is known as "St. Vitus' dance"
It began in the year 1874 at Ai1'la'
Chapene and spread all over Ger
many, the Netherlands and Italy. The
dancers formed circles hand in hand
and appearing to have lost all reason
continued dancing, regardless Of the
bystanders. for hours together until in
their wild delirium they fell to the
ground In sheer exhaustion. Painting
and foaming at the mouth. they would
suddenly spring up and begin the
dance again, to be again exhausted,
and 80 on until they died The mania
involved millions Of people.

MODERN WIRE ROPE.

Mathematical Precision Rules Every
Process In Its Making.
Although wire rope has been used as
a mechanical appliance for almost 5000
years. it is commonly regarded as q
modern invention. During the many
years which have elapsed since the
first records Of its use wire rope has
passed from q crude to highly devet
oped product, and the purposes Tor
which it is employed have increased 8
thousandfold. In NO other branch of
the American steel industry is there 30
great a demand for material Of proved
integrity. for 1t might be safely sug.
gested that wire rope Is born to be
abused. 1t Is subjected to tremendous
tensile strains: it must Withstand con-
stant bendings, abrasion, corrosion and
the peculiar internal stress produced by
vibration.
Wire rope as it IS made today is the
product of the metallurgist and the me-
chanic. Every process, from the smelt-
ing Of the ores, the cold drawing Of the
wire and the heat treatments 1t re-
ceives down to the stranding or laying
up Of the cable, is conducted with
mathematical precision.
The chemist sees that only steel Of
the proper analysis IS used: the electric
pyrometer insures uniformity Of heat;
treatment in various testing machines
clearly develops the worth Of the prod
net before It is allowed to leave the
mill. Wire rope is used in the mine
shafts more than a mile in depth, and
may be found on aeroplanes which san

Cataelysn,ie Geology.

Cataclysmic geology no longer e1'
lists. It was once the accepted opinion
that the great changes in the eartks
surface had been mainly brought about
by sudden and violent (cataclysmic,
agencies, but Sir Charles Lyell, as far
back as 1888, demolished the old theory
Of cataclysm at once and forever. Sir
Charles proved by facts which were In
disputable that the great geological
changes have been produced slowly by
gradual processes Of subsidence and
elevation and not by earthquakes, vol
canic action. etc. Lyell may be said to
be the father Of scientific geology.

FIRST BASEBALL GLOVE.
Story Of the Little Third Baseman
With the Iron Fist.

Story Of the Little Third Basen,an
With the Iron Fist.
About 1867 a baseball team came
to Rockford. ILL.,, to play our nine,
says a writer in All Outdoors They
called themselves the "UnconQuered
Clippers Of Illinois" and plastered our
town with big posters. We made up
our minds to give them drubbing,
and at the end of the game the score
was Rockford. 76; Clippers, 0.
There was little chap playing third
base who grabbed everything that
came near him. and held 1t too.
noticed that be wore kind OF glove.
When the game was over / went to
him and asked what it was that he
wore on his hand. He told me that
be was machinfst and had got his
hand badly hurt the week before. and
be showed me the wound in his palm.
he said the boys did not want him
to play In that game. but he got a
piece Of thin sheet steel and made
1t slightly concave, but so that It old
not quite touch the sore place. he
then made short glove to cover all
the hand excepting the first joints OF
the fingers and doubled the leather IN
the palm so that he could slip the
plate between.
l. asked him If it hurt, and he said
1t did not and that he could take 9 hot
one and hold it better with the glove
than without it. That is the whole
story. l don't think that Spalding
ever talked to the little chap with the
iron fist. as the boys dubbed the third
baseman. but everybody. In Rockford
knew about the mitt and he may
have got the idea from him. Anyway,
that was the first glove that any ball
player ever wore.
