Two Panama CoaIIna Plants.

The two great coalfng plants Of the
Panama canal-one at Cristobal and
the other at Balhoa-which together
have a total emergency storage capac-
ity of 10000 tons, have been completed,
according to the Philadelphia Record.
That at Cristobal, the Atlantic
terminus, is the larger and it is ex-
pected that most of the coaling will be
done there. The plant there has been
in commercial operation for several
months. The completion at this time
of these coaling plants Of the Atlantic
terminal of the canal is considered
highly important.

the church at Corinth: 81 fear lest
there be among you debates, envyings,
backbitings, whisperings, swellings,
tumults"
The evil speaking we have to guard
against is not so much the fragrant lie
and the reviling speech, but the pri-
vate ways of calumny-the unground-
ed and false rumors, the unkind con-
structions, the ready acceptance of
bad reports, the carrying of tales and
the disposition to dwell upon the worst
rather than the best in people. AS
someone has said, this is what the flies
do-skip over what is sound in men
and alight upon their sores.
There are some lives so blameless
that even malice is ashamed to vent
its spite against them, and yet there is
way of accomplishing the evil pur-
pose even in their case. Their whole
character may not be attacked but as
saults made upon parts of it. The
edges will be nibbled at and the bor-
ders Of their good name clipped away.
Someone says that "so-and-so is a very
accomplished person." and we reply
that probably he knows it pretty
WE'LL" This does not say that he Is
proud or vain, but it comes SO near to
1t that there is no need to say 1t. If
another is commended for his good
works we can add that doubtless he
has his own particular ends in view"
This does not say that he is hypo-
critic, but 1t makes it unnecessary to
say it. And so it goes. Indeed the
truth about another may be spoken,
and yet in such way as to come I'm
der the designation of evil speaking.
To reveal another's faults from hurt
full motive is another illustration of
what is meant.
All Are Exposed to 1t.
One would think it would deter Us
from evil speaking of another to re-
fleet how we ourselves are exposed to
the same danger. The Scripture says,
"Take heed If We bite and devour one
another that We be not consumed one
of another" 1t is q game that two can
play at. The devil who instigated your
SANDER against your neighbor can en-
ploy your neighbor to instigate a SINH
lar SANDER against you.
And then there is the other thought,
that when we search into the corners
of our life and ransack the garnet and
cellar Of our corrupt nature, many
things may be found for occasion
against us as we'll as others. AS Paul
said to the Galatians, eff a man be
overtaken In a fault, We which are
spiritual restore such an one in the
spirit Of meekness, considering thyself
lest We also be tempted" In other
words shame for our sins should be
covering for our brothers sins, and
recognition Of our own weakness should
make us compassionate toward his.
We shall find that as we cease being
evil listeners we lessen the temptation
to be evil speakers. All conversation
is kept up by exchange, and If one
brings you story it will seem as in
civility not to repay him with an
other. Therefore If he accuses A.
you will condemn B and
thus it goes. The Scripture says
again, "Thou shalt not receive a
false report" Here is where nine
tenths of the trouble of evil speak
ing begins. Do not lend your ears to
those who go about with tales and
whisperings, and as you thus hear
fewer stories fewer will there be to

Pneumatic Tires for Hiking Shoes.

Taking his inspiration from autOmo-
bile tires, and going the ordinary rub
Der heel one better, Oscar Mussinan
of New York city has invented a pneu-
matte tire for his own shoes. The
tire differs very decidedly from the
ordinary heels in that q partition Of
rubber is built in it half way up its
thickness. The partition thus forms
an air chamber with the bottom of the
leather above it, and still another one
with the ground when the heel comes
down upon it, explains the Popular
Science Monthly. Each of these two
chambers is connected with the out
side air by small opening. When the
heel strikes the ground, the air in the
chambers becomes slightly compressed,
causing the jolt of the walking to be
very greatly cushioned in a manner
very much similar to that in which the
automobile tire cushions the joltS of
riding. To prevent the air from be-
coming too suddenly compressed and
so putting the bottom of the heels out
of shape, the air is allowed to escape
slowly through the openings.

There is always a time Of year for
checking up. We know what we have
done and so does the world about us.
But only we ourselves know what we
have dreamed of doing that we have
not done. And we know also that we
are poorer because we failed to do the
thing that we considered and then
dropped. The work which we planned
and then never did would have made
US stronger. The kindly impulses
which we felt would have made US bet

When Postage Cost $40 an Ounce.

San Francisco has had an interesting
history. The first settlement dates
from 1916. The United States flag was
raised over the town in 1916. Two
years later the city had an estimated
population of 10000, caused by the in
rush of fortune seekers. The first reg

keepino the Balance,

OF course there is prudent observa-
ton of each others conduct which
should be practiced by Christians and
there may be a useful importation to
each other of what we have seen and
known, not what we have heard or
guessed For self-defense, for the sake
Of justice, for the love of others, 1t
may be necessary to proclaim our tes-
timony But this is not speaking evil
of one another for it is done with an
honest purpose and harmless mind.
AS William Cullen Bryant says:
Dear ties of mutual succor bind
The children of our feeble race.
And, If our brethren were not kind
This earth were but a weary place.
We lean on others as we walk,
Lifes twilight path with pitfalls strewn,
And 'twere an idle boast to talk
OF treading that dim path alone!
In vain. however, does the Chris
tian preacher inveigh against q wrong
thing like this, or eXhort to q righteous
one, except as he points out the power
by which the one may be avoided and
the other attained. That power is
Jesus Christ. To the Christian, /. e.,
the truly regenerated man, there should
be no mystery In this. He should know
that If he surrenders himself to the
Spirit of the Lord who dwells within
him, he will receive power to become
q child of God in deed as we'll as in
name.
And to the man who is not Chris
tan, the advice is practically the same.
Let him accept Jesus Christ by faith
as his Savior and confess him as his
Lord, and he will discover that he is
able not only to redeem him from the
guilt of sin, but keep him day by day
from its power. Yes, even from it's
power as expressed in an evil tongue.
