Night and the Stars.

Some of our boys at the front say
that they really never saw the stars
before. 1t must be great relief when
there Is brief space of quiet to look
up at these silent sentinels. In the
cities we live too much indoors and
such living makes for pettiness OF
spirit Almost all of those who wrote
the Bible lived in fiat rooted houses
and went up to the house tops when
the day was done so that the wheel.
ing planets and the whole host of the
stars were their familiars. 1t was in
that light that they thought of man
and his destiny.-M A. B.

Explosives From Gas Plants.

British local authorities have been
notified by the war ONCE that
owing to the demand for benzol and
toluol for the manufacture of explo.
sives it has been found necessary to
require gas undertakings throughout
the kingdom to extract these constit.
uents from their gas, thereby in some
cases affecting the illuminating power
OF the gas and its calorific power.
1t is urged by the war office that
municipal councils should do every.
thing in their power to prevent at.
tacks on gas undertakings, owing to
possible deterioration of the gas sup.
piled, and that this could best be done
by ceasing to test gas altogether, or
by preventing results of the test be-
ing made public.
