The Spiritual Life.

Spiritual music can only come from discords set in unison, said Carlyle. It would be worth the time and space of a whole sermon to di- 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 rifce to turn into harmony. Do you meet a 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 life that would escape all discords and therefore never hear any spirit ual music.-Ohio State Journal.

Take Care of the Parks.

Years and years ago the necessity for presenting any extended argument in favor of the ownership of extensive parks by municipalities was obviated. It has come to be generally under stood and appreciated that these out door breathing places afford not only pleasure, but profit, and that instead of being liability they are a very valuable asset in the community which has them. To be sure, those who have automobiles or horses and who can go out into the country as far and as often as they like are not particularly anxious for these nearby grass plots, and yet when they have visitors they are sure to take them there, and they point with pride to these evidences of municipal enter prise. They ought cheerfully to pay their share to provide these parks for those whose lack of means pre- vents them from getting out into the country at their will, and having an hour or an afternoon in the sun or the shade. in the fresh, pure air. There is no other tax in town which ought to be more cheerfully paid than that which goes for parks-Utica Press.

eceptive disease

The observatory is in direct tele- phonic communication with the Vati- can. It was thought at first a good idea to place an observation station upon the eupoia of St Peters as was done in 1870. but this idea was aban. doned
 A most serupulous guard has been placed about the palaces of the Dat aria and the Caneelleria and the Propaganda of the Faith beneath the Quirinal.
 It is believed the treasure of the propaganda may have been transport ed to the subterranean vaults of the Vatican or elsewhere.
 At night the apostolic palaces are wrapped in darkness, as is wise in a city within the war zone, for the church has learned it's lessons from Reims and it's other despoiled relig- ious houses.
 It is clear how vigilant an eye the government, keeps on the Vatican and how careful Is it's protection.

Cold Light.

Rare atmospheric gas known as neon, which was first isolated in 1898 by fractional distilIation of liquid air is now used successfully in electric lighting If a mild electric current passes through a tube that contains a 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- grates 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 eessfully used to light an exhibit at the Grand Palais in Paris.

Quality of Helping Was All Right, But In Quantity 1t Left Much to
 Be Desired.

Jacky had been asked out to a "grown-up' dinner. Swelling with pride. he took his seat at the bot tom of the table and looked round slightly awestruck-at the imposing collection of aunts and uncles.
 Then his attention became fixed on the ancient relative who was carving an enormous turkey, and his mouth watered as he saw the big helpings being handed round.
 But the carver, who did not know much about little boys, cut off a tiny portion for Jacky.
 ''Is that the part of the bird you like, my little man?" he asked, as the servant handed Jack the plate.
 Jack looked at it for moment, and then handed it back.
 Yes" he said; I'll have some of that, please

VALUE OF SCHOOL GARDENS
Encourages the Child to Get Into Close Communion With
 Mother Nature.

The value of school gardens in plac- Ing the child in close communion with Mother Nature cannot be overestimat- ed. In these times of warfare we re- call the words of one writer who asked:
 What conqueror in any part of life's battle could desire a more beautiful, more noble or more patriotic monu- ment than tree planted by the hands of pure and joyous children?"
 Ex-Gov. Curtis Guild of Massachu- setts said: Let the children in the public schools be taught that every egg they take from the nests of the birds means the loss of little friend of Massachusetts: means one less winged crusader against the gypsy moth, the brown-tail moth and the crawling pests that destroy the food of the people and the beauty of the land. Save the trees! Save the birds that we may save the trees." In the school gardens the children have some very practical and often painful les sons regarding damage to plant life through destructive insects.

Save the Trees.

The National Highway Protective as sociation reports that two states have adopted it's legislation to mitigate the evil of defacing trees, fences and buildings along public highways with advertisements. The states that have shown this wisdom are Rhode Island and New York. The measure is not drastic. It merely requires that no advertisements can be placed on trees, fences or buildings flanking highways without the written consent of the owner. A moderate penalty is inn posed for violation. It is not to be hoped that this will wholly prevent the evil, but it will exercise wholesome check on it's prevalence. Other states might we'll follow the example, and even more drastic legislation would be in order

FLOWERS FOR THE ROCKERlES
Flower Garden-White Blossoms Very Effective.

If one has not space enough for flower garden. or does not wish the care of garden, little rockery will be an attractive substitute and one that involves little labor in mainten- ance.
 A rockery of white blossoms is es- pecially effective. Here is combina- ton that is easily grown; Sweet alys- sum, which blossoms profusely and can be cut all summer; candytuft. gypsophila and white portulacca. Do not SOW portulaeca until the weather is warm and settled; but once under way it is a sturdy plant and needs little care. All these flowers are hardy annuals. may be sown from seed in summer
 If the rockery is to be permanent 1t would be better to plant some per ennials. Wentworth ivy, small trail CT that bears small lavender or pur- pie flowers, and the helianthenum or colors, are good selections. For a yellow and white effect use, say the yellow dwarf nasturtiums and the vel low pontulacea The nasturtiums spread rapidly and flower profusely during the greater part of the season.
 Dwarf morning glory is a pretty vine for roekeries, and the pink and white flowers are especially effective when grown with a mass of lavender flow CTS, rose-colored portulacca, rock rose, Wentworth ivy, gypsophlla and sweet alyssum.

"Squabbling and fighting s another very frequent cause of di- vorce," said Prof. L. Watts Ingersoll in an address before the Cleveland Antidivorce league.
 "A man had been haled before a Cleveland magistrate for nonsupport or some such fault.
 "'But let me see,' the justice said, aren't you the man who was married in a cage of mild man-eating tigers and leopards?'
 Yes, your honor, I'm the man. was the reply
 Exciting, wasn't it?' said the jus tice.
 "'Well, your honor said the man. it seemed so then It wouldn't now.' ;"

Dew Ponds.

The name dew pond" Is given to certain isolated ponds on the upper levels Of the chalk downs of the south Of England and elsewhere. Their name seems to imply that they depend on dew and not entirely upon rain for their maintenance as a source of water supply for cattle, for which they are used. The question has been dis cussed a good deal, but not settled: the balance of evidence seems to be against the view that dew deposits make any important contribution to the supply of water. The construction or dew ponds is, however, still prac- ticed on traditional lines, but it is said that new dew pond has first to be filled artificially. A dew pond does not come into existence by the gradu- al accumulation of water in an i'm perVious basin, from the settlement Of eyaporated water from the atmos- phere.
