The SnirifuaI Life.

Spiritual music can only come
from discords set in unison," said
Carlyle. 1t would be worth the time
and space of whole sermon to d.
late upon that wonderful truth. Good
comes not from an easy, languishing
life, where virtue meets no opposition
and where courage encounters no de-
fiance. All discords are created by
divine love to make spiritual music
out of. Those who do not meet with
such discords will not hear such mu-
sic. Such experience is left for sac
rifice to turn into harmony. Do you
meet friend who may seem to turn
against you, don't leave him till the
harmony is restored, not by appeal
or instruction, but by the union OF
your own life. This may seem senti-
ment, but remember the spiritual life
is as harsh and exacting as the ma
terial life. These are days that need
so much of this fine philosophy, not
to say religion, that there is a sweep
ing tendency toward the dalliance of
and therefore never hear any spirit
ual music-Ohio State Journal.

Cold Linht.

Rare atmospheric gas known as
neon, which was first isolated in 1898
by fractional distillation of liquid air,
is now used successfully in electric
lighting. If a mild electric current
passes through tube that contains
minute quantity of neon, it pro
duces a golden light that is soft and
agreeable to the eyes, and makes the
object it illumines stand out with re-
markable sharpness. The neon tubes
require less current than the mercury.
vapor lamp and give out less heat
than any other form of electric light.
Moreover, the electric current disinte-
CRATES the new gas very slowly; the
tubes will produce light for from eight
hundred to a thousand hours without
being renewed. Recently four neon
tubes, nearly 120 feet long, were sue.
cessfully used to light an exhibit at
the Grand Palais in Paris.
