THE INFLUENCE OF EASTER.

Evsrybedy Needs the Message, "Riss 90
Nswnsss Of Life"
No one may account himself free
from the spiritual teaching Of Easter
day because he may consider the
Christian faith concerning 1t romantic,
fictitious, poetic, a~llegorical. None the
less is the practical, personal truth
emphasized, that everybody needs the
message Of Easter. Rise to :NewnAss
Of Life"
Is he in all respects the noble being
he would have his friends consider
him? Is his influence alwayssoR the
side Of that which is high and true?
If a man is only that which God
knows him to be is there not room for
improvement in every ones life? Self
examination and honest, sober
thought will surely teach every m Of,
us that there are nobler aims Rurers
motives, higher attachments than any
which we have ever heretofore known,
for the ex%hortation has to do not only
with private. personal character, but
with domestic conduct, social e1etton-
ships, business associations and the du-
ties Of a citizen. Let us cast away the
works of darkness and put upon us
the armor of light, laying aside much
that now fills our life and mars M
conduct and rising to newness Of life
with heads erect in the consciousness

A BEAR AND A BUTTERFLY.

A large and ferocious bear once lived
in the middle Of a great forest, and so
fierce and terrible was he that he had
the forest all to himself, for all the an
finals who used to live there ran away
when they saw him coming.
At last he met a butterfly. It was a
beautiful blue and gold butterfly, and
when the bear discovered it it was sit
ting on a wild rose eating breakfast.
The bear vas Sc delighted at finding
something to scare that the roar he
gave sounded almost amiable. Never
theless it was such a roar as would
have frightened a squirrel into a ft.
But instead Of showing any signs Of
fits the butterfly continued quietly
eating breakfast, just as If the bear
had not spoken, At this the bear was
angry. So he gave seventeen Of his
loudest and f1ercest roars. When he
was all through the butterfly turned
and said politely. Excuse me; did you
say anything2"
Say anythingY repeated the bear.
Didn't you hear me? Aren't you
frightened"
"Frightenedy' echoed the butterfly.
What should I be afraid of"
"Why, Of me, Of course" said the
bear. "Everybody's afraid Of me-"
At that the butterfly laughed and
laughed. "You don't suppose you are
SO terrible, you silly creature!" she
said. "You are the nj that should be
frightened. There is something always
behind you. and it follows wherever
you 60"
The bear looked over his shoulder.
ooh, you can't see it." said the but
terfy. "But it's behind you all the
same"
Goodness gracious me-" cried the
bear. what is it?'
~ shan't tell you" replied the butter
fly, 'but If l were you I'd be careful
how I behaved"
"Thank you so much for telling me-"
said the bear, quite meekly. "Il be
particularly careful. and I won't growl
and romp and o a and scare things
ever any more. Goodby. Miss Butter
fly," and he tiptoed back to his forest.
When he had gone the butterfly
laughed and laughed. "Silly thing!"
she said. "Of course there's something
behind him that he can't see. but it's
only his own tailg"

SHORT COURSE
FOR PROSPECTORS

The short course for pr~ospeotors at
the Mackay School of Mines, Univer-
sity of Nevada, Reno, Nevada, which
was held with so much success dur
ing the past two years will be re-
peated this season. The curse will
begin on January 8 and last until
February ,. thus coming at a some
what earlier date than on preceding
years. The object of changing the
opening date has been to make the
time most favorable for those wish
ing TO attend, as it has been found in
the past two sessions that prospec-
| tors like to return to their work
about the middle Of February, when
conditions are likely to be sufficiently
favorable, whereas during the month
of January it is usually impossible
to perform prospecting work.
The prospectors' short course is de-
signed primarily to aid the prospec-
tors of Nevada, but 1t is open to those
engaged In other professions and to
the residents of other states. The
! work of the course includes both lee
| lures and laboratory exercises, and
the subjects taken up consist of pros
pecting, ~assaying, sale of ores. mill
ing. mineralogy, geology. prime NOV
ers, chemistry, hygiene, first aid to
the injured. and mining law. In the
short space of four weeks which is
available it is naturally impossible
to cover in detail any one of these
subjects, but an attempt is made to
| acquaint the members of the class
with as many practical points con
corning them rs time permits.
No recitatiens aye held and there
/ are no examinations at the compile
ton of the course, but students who
/ are regular in attendance are pre-
/ scented with certificates to that eff
feet. The lectures are informal in
character, time being taken to an
swer all questions asked, and empha-
sis being laid upon the practical
rather than the theoretical side of
the subjects discussed. The course
is, therefore, admirably adapted to
those who are interested in mining
and desire to learn more concerning
that subject as we'll as to the pros
pectors, for whom it is especially de-
signed.
Those who desire to take advantage
of the instruction offered in this
course should present themselves at
the Office of the registrar 1t the uni
versity on the opening morning, Mon
day. January s. No charges will be
made for instruction, but a fee of S.
will be collected to cover, in part. the
cost of supplies used during the
course. Text books are not required,
but certain books will be recommend
ed in each subject.
