A Surprise For Her: He returned to the automobile in tri- umph. hearing a big pitcher of sweet mil ' and two glasses. says the Cleve- land Leader. It 'was more than the party was able to consume. When he returned the glassware and asked for his bill the good woman who seemed to boss the place said, “Oh. bout, a nickel will be enough. I reckon." But the urbanite figured that a quarter was much more commensurate with the service and produced the coin in evi- dence ofâ€"his sentiment. The woman took it. not Without some besitancy. “Land sakes!” she‘ exclaimed. “Did it taste that good?" Putting It Miidly. “That. man seems to be proud of his stupidity.” said the impetuous per- son.

Some years ago civil war was raging between two Afghan tribes. the All Khel and the Mala Khel. The latter tribe built great hopes of success on a cannon of such a .size that 160 men were required to draw it. A Sikh trained in a British battery was en- gaged to work the can on the under- standing that he received ‘20 rupees every time he liit the village fort of the foe. This did not prove remuner- ative, for. according to an eyewitness. the ammunition consisted 'of “olive wood balls bound with iron bands. which have a highly eccentric flight: and are calculated to do about equal damage to friend and foe.” After a three days" bombardment. in which the fort was hit only three times, the hostilities came to an end.-â€"London f‘tandard.

The bird immediately sets about the build- ing of a second nest. taking thirty days for the work. This is also stolen be- fore the eggs are laid. The third nest, however. is unmolested. and the birds are permitted to raise their young. after which the nest is taken and sold as the salzmgune. The nests are found in the islands about Siam and 'the Ma‘ lay archipelago. and the harvest in a year Will be about 18.000 pounds. val- ued at over $100,000. It used tot he thought that the nest was formed of inspissated saliva secreted by the high. ly develomd glands of the bird.

The taster. too. will the bus rush forward! At least. so said the inventor. who ac- tually took out a patent for his idea. Needless to say, no such buses are running. Some or these perpetual motion ma- chines are certainly extremely ingen- ious. One man thought he had discov. ered a way to run nmnihuses by them- selves. He had oyiinders of water placed just above the axles. and on these cylinders was supported the whole weight of the bus and passen~ gets.

Preparing His Speech. A reply very characteristic of the statesman and diplomat who made it is given in the “Autogiography or Al- fred Austin.” Lord and Lady Salis- bury were among the guests at Hewell Grange. Lord Salisbury had come to speak at a public meeting. On the morning of the day when the speech was to be delivered, seeing Lord Salis- bury passing into the study. I said to The Matches We Burn. It has been estimated that for each minute or time the civilized nations of the world strike 3,000,000 matches. This is said tobe the average for every minute of the twenty-fou hours of the day. Fifteen hundred llion is the number for the entire year. and those persons who live under the American flag are charged with the consumption of one-half of this amount Small and insignificant as it is, the match de- mands awuch attention in the choice of woods involved as any other forest product. Only the choicest portions of the best trees are suitple. Sapwood and knotty or cross grained wood will not do. Instead of being a byproduct the little match is turned out in mills where the byproducts are bulky ob- jects like doors, sash. shingles. sidings. posts and cordwood. The pines. lin- den. aspen. white cedar. poplar. birch and willow are the most suitable match timbers-Chicago News. The coral polypi cannot live In fresh water. Their food supply is brought to them by the waves and currents of the sea. As a result, it is found that directly opposite the mouth of a stream from the island the reef does not grow. There will leet to the inclosed waters.â€"â€"Harper’s Weekly. These tiny beings get all their living from the waters of the sea. It is from this source also that they derive the salts of lime from which they secrete the bony structure that remains after the animal is dead. Chemically the reef corals are almost pure carbonate of lime. the substance of ordinary limestone and marble. The reef grows as the shell of the oyster or of any other shellfish grows. It is ltself the common and undivided shell of innumerable polypi. or minute in- sects, which are being reproduced and are dying in successive generations. They Cannot Form In the Line of a Fresh Water Flow. Coral reefs surround many of the is- lands in the Pacific. They protect the lowlands from the washing of the waves. and the still waters inclosed by them are the only harbors of refuge for ships. The reefs themselves fur- nish the greatest peril to navigation, and if there were no inlet through which a vessel could enter their pro- tected circle they would be a danger and nothing else. But almost every reef has such an in- let. It is a necessary result or the laws under which the forces of nature work. To understand this we must see how these reefs are formed. One sees in the hat a rapid study of the artist. The artist has utilized the blue sill; lining of the hat to improvise a beautiful sky of summer reflected in the peaceful water below. Upon the bank are three trees and a picturesque Saracen tower. while white clouds among the blue complete the scene. Readers must not jump to the conclu- sion that this hat landscape is an ex- ample of the eccentricity of genius. It ls the result or What appeared to be the tragedy of a "White" hat which belonged to a friend of the master. The friend, calling on Corot, happened to place his brand new hat near the easel. In extending the hand Corot’s brush fell into the hat. leaving an in: delible mark. “Not at all,” said Corot, bursting into a hearty laugh. “I will soon put that all right.” The painter brushed away the (1an caused by the accident. and in a few minutes the picture was com- plete, and the owner of the hat left the studio with a much more valuable chapeau than that with which he en- teredâ€"London Globe.

CORAL REEFS. gratitaaévgnough to tgll others the M Lesson verses 35 to 3:) tell of His ear- ly morning praying a great while be- !fore day, having gone oif to a soli- [ tary place. Since He felt the need of 1 being away from even these few disâ€" iciples that lie might the better com- Iinune with His Father. how can we know much of real communion with ,God in the constantly busy life that I so many lead? It is true that we can ' pray to God anywhere and at any time, E but see how He went away alone. Si» lmon and the others found Him and told Him that people were looking for Him; then He said: “Let us go into the next towns.” “I must preach the king- dom of God to other cities also." We must not forget that “the field is the world" and our orders are, “Go ye into all the world.” The four lepers of Samaria should put us to shame with their words: “We do not well. This day is a day of good tidings, and we hold 1 our peace” (II Kings vii, 9). Our les- i son chapter closes with the record of a healed leper who published and blazed abroad the fact of his being healed so widely that Jesus had to stay away from the cities. and the peo- ple came to Him from every quarter. He is still the same J esus. full of com. passion as when He said to that leper, “I will. be than clean.” and as quickly as the leper was healed (immediately) just as quickly can a sinner be saved. Without money and without price He gives eternal life to all who receive Him. The strange thing is that thosq who profess to have been saved by ' Him have not the zeal of. this lepernog l l i l i l 1 1 3| 3 i W l: Verses 32 to 34 tell of all manner of diseased and demon possessed people being brought to Him to be healed, and it is written here and in the paral- lel accounts in Matthew and Luke that He laid wands on every one of them and healed them (Luke iv, 40); that He cast out the'spirits with His word and healed all that were sick, that it might be fulfilled which was spoke by Isaiah the prophet. saying, “Himself took our infirmlties and bare our sicknesses” (Matt. viii, 16, 17: Isa. liii, 4). If they had only received Him as their Messiah the Lord would have made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth should have seen the salva- tion of our God (Isa. lii, 10), but be- cause He is still the despised and re- jected one of Israel we continue in faith and patience to wait for His re. turn. He needs no testimony from His adversaries, so He suffered not the de- mons to speak even though they said, “Thou art Christ. the Son of God." Our lesson verses 29 to 31 tell of His going from the synagogue to the home of Simon and Andrew, where Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a feyer. He took her by the hand, rebuked the fe- ver, and immediately she was we‘ll and ministered to them. Compare the ministry of angels in verse 13. Think of Samuel as a little boy ministering to the Lord (1 Sam. iii, 1) and let all our service be “unto the Lord” and “before the Lord.” Possibly more might be healed if He saw that they would minister unto Him, for He is seeking in every way to bring people unto Himself that He may fill them with His fullness (Ex. xix, 4; I Pet. iii, 18). Text of the Lesson. Mark i, 29-45. Memory Verses, 40, 41â€"Golden Text, Matt. viii, 17â€"Ocmmentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The events of this lesson, the heal- ing of the fever stricken and all man- ner of diseased people and spirit p094 sessed pe0ple and the healing or a leper. are all samples of the king- dom which was at hand. but which did not come because they would not have Him. Verse 39 of our lesson summa- rizes it briefly. “He preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee and cast out demons.” It is more fully stated in Matt. iv. 23. “And Jesus went about all Galilee. teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.'.' It was predicted by the prophets that in the kingdom the blind would see. the deaf hear, the dumb sing. the lame leap as a hart. and no one complain because of sick- ness. for iniquity would be forgiven (Isa. xxxiii, 24: xxxv, 5. 6). It was also predicted that in the kingdom wolves and lambs. leopards and kids, calves and lions. cows and bears and little children would all live in peace together (Isa. xi, (3»9; lxv, 253). No one seems to expect these last mentioned things until Jesus shall come again. but many are wondering why they can- not be. healed of all diseases even though the kingdom has not come. They ask often coniplainingly, “ls not the body as well as the soul included in the atonement?" Yes; the great atonement will reach the body, too. and in the resurrection these bodies or our humiliation will be fashioned like His glorious body, but till then‘ we must wait patiently in strength or weakness. as He may in His infinite love and wisdom decide. Some are healed by His hand without a physi- clan and some by His blessing upon the physician's skill and medicine, while some continue in weakness, and many are passing out from the mortal body. The truly devout soul says un- der all circumstances, “Even so, Fa- ther,” and rejoices in the perfect will of God. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Lesson X.-â€"First Quarter, For March 10, 1912.
