Deep-Sea Hiving;, i A record in British deep-sea diving was created on the Clyde, when Diver 'Walker descended 136 feet, and was under water for forty minutes. Slaughter on the Balls. , On the average sis thousand per sons are killed on the railways of this country every year, and upward oi thirty thousand injured. Hundreds of employes are killed and thousands injured every year while engaged in coupling or uncoupling freight cars. The law of 1893 demanded that the roads should equip their cars with automatio couplers and air brakes. After all these years much more than half the freight cars remain without even automatic couplers, and " fewer still are fitted with the brake. John K. Cowen appeared before the Inter State Commerce Commission and re quested that the time within which the roads must comply with the law be extended for five years. This looks like asking permission to kill or maim a hundred thousand persons in 1 order that derelict roads may wear out their old equipment without the expense of fitting it with the required safety appliances. New York Her ald. ' The Chinese Treaty Ports. The best indication of the increase of foreign trade with China is found in the mercantile conditions of what are known as the "Treaty Ports." Id these treaty ports there are 672 for eign firms, and there has been an in crease of sixty-nine firms during the past two years. Of the total, 363 are British, thus showing that the busi ness of these ports is still largely in the hands of the English. But while , , the English firms have increased only by two during the last two years, the Americans have increased by nine and the Germans by seven. There have also been fifty-seven new Japanese firms established in these ports, bul French, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian are all on the decline. The total foreign population of the treaty ports is 10,855, which is an in crease of about 1000 during the twc years. : A Closed Incident. . ' So Captain Leonard A. Lovering. the officer at Fort Sheridan who kicked and prodded with his sword an ob stinate private soldier, is to be "rep rimanded." The penalty, to a civ ilian, seems rather mild, all thing? considered, but in reality it is by nc means a light one, and the ends oi justice will probably be met. An of ficial reprimand is not easy to bear when directed at a man of high spirit, to whom reputation is a matter of im mense consequence. Captain Lover ing has had his lesson. It is not likely that he will offend again, and as no doubt he is a good soldier, the in cident may be regarded as satisfac torily closed. New York Times. Rest and Relief. A piece of machinery run by steam and overworked will become cranky, creaky, and out of genr, owing to some expansion of metal from heat and friction. Stop its work, rub and brighten and let It rest. In a short while it will be restored and will run smoothly. The human system is a machine. Too much work and worry are thrown upon it; too much of the heat of daily cares; too much of the steam of daily business. The nerves become cranky; they are restless, sleepless and twltchy, and a neuralgic condition seta in. Pain throws the machine out of gear and it needs rest and treatment to strengthen and restore. , St. Jacob3 Oil is the one remedy of all pecu liarly adapted to a prompt and sure cure. So many have so freely testified from ex perience and use to its efficacy in the euro ' of neuralgia that it passes without saying that it surely cures. It will be a gracious surprise to many after the free use of it to And how easily pain, cares and worry may be lifted, and how smoothly the human machine goes on. Eighteen Grandsons as Pallbearers.

"The Golden Rale" Is the Title of the Third of the New York Herald's Com petitive Sermons Preached by Rev. ' Charles S. Vedder, of Charleston, S. C. Text: "Let us consider one another." Hebrews x., 24. , Here Is the Golden Eule, expressed in the terms of familiar speech and practical ac tion the way ia which the command to do unto others as we would that others should do unto us may be made effectually opera tive. Here Is the sursum oorda of all dis content with the inequality of human con ditions; the proclamation of peaco in all strife of human opinions; the solution of the problem of capital and labor; the con dition of harmony ia all human relations. The two noble brothers of the Hebrew tra dition, secretly sharing the sheaves of their barley harvest with each other to make up what each conceived that the other lacked . of the elements of happiness, exemplllled It. Sir Philip Sydney did no moro when, wounded to the death, he gave the draught of water hardly obtained for his own con suming thirst to a stricken private soldier, saying, "Thy necessity is greater than mine." The words of the text were spoken by one of the great teachers of the world to those who had associated themselves for worship and work, and whom he would fain incite to the highest and purest and kindliest life. "Let us consider one another." We would better receive the full meaning of the ap peal should we use the similar, familiar and expressive word "considerate" "Let us bo considerate of one another." 1 Among the potential agencies of the world aro those which aro directly ad dressed in the text and those akin to them In spirit and purpose organizations which seek to promote human welfare, whether they bo called churehes, charities or by whatever name else. In all of these there are possibilities of difference and division which will defeat or retard their useful ness and value. If we would know how these possibilities may be met and over come we need but conceive of one of these instrumentalities for good la which each member is "considerate" of every other. Then we should see the strong bearing with the infirmities of the weak; the weak not stumbled with the larger liberty of the strong; the rich sympathizing with the manifold trials of the poor; the poor con siderate of the crowding cares and calls of the rich and zealous that both may be poorer in spirit and richer in the graces of character. We shoHld see the old mindful of the enthusiasm of their own youth and, remembering its errors, gently guiding and tempering not frowning upon and re bukingthe ardor of the younger; the young would be seen sitting at the feet of the oid to learn and rising from them to do, not rejecting the counsels of the hoary head as fossil theories of a buried genera tion, but acknowledging that "days should speak and the multltudo of years teach wisdom." If with increase of age infirmity had come, its very decrepitude would be honored as the wound of an earlier war fare. Parents would be then not forgetful that they were once children; children that duty to parents is duty to God and that they one day may need a parent's Immuni ties. We shjould see the wise gentle to the ignorance of the ignorant and patient tq instruct it; the unlearned, if need be, tol erant of the irritability of incessant thought and exacting study and eager to share the fruit of such toil, and all esteeming it more blessed to give than to receive for bearance and extenuation. Had any "fallen," all would think how adapted was the temptation to the weak ness it conquered, and how Improbable, if thus beset, that any would have remained steadfast. Repentance before God would give the offence to oblivion In the sight of men, save to kindle a deeper sympathy for the frailty that had yielded. There would be the constant summoning of that charity which "seeketh not her own, thinketh no evil, hopeth all things, endureth all things." If reproof seemed duty, the fact would not be overlooked that . gome hearts there aro so perilously fash ioned Gods touch alone hath tenderness enough To waken, and not break, the thrilling strings. "Let us be considerate of one another!" How benignant a law this for social inter coursel How happy would bo the com munity in which it reigned! We learn very early in this life that the secret of peaceful and pleasant living is a generous recogni tion of the differences between us and others and a full allowance of the right to differ. In different ages and climes differ ent definitions have obtained as to what constitutes "refinement." There is one element in which all ages and climes agreel A true good breeding is that which is con siderate of the feelings of others, of what ever class or condition. Why is it that sometimes even the sacred circle of home is darkened with the cloud of painful differences, but that some with in It lack thoughtfulness of the feelings and even the failings of others? Blgirt in their own ways, tbey are intolerant of the different ways of others. Why is it that In the same circles of society variances come, which grow to settled alienations, but that in some thoughless moment a wo-d, look or act has wounded the sensi bilities of another, or even slighted his prejudices, and when regret came some retaliatory word- forbade acknowledg ment? Employer and employed! Are thoy al ways to bo at odds? Yes, until each "con siders" the other and not himself alone. What is there which would banish from the intercourse and rivalries of business the personal antagonism which is often en gendered, like tearing down the ghastly legend from the marts of trade, "Every man for himself," and writing there in stead the kindly motto, "Let us be con siderate of one another?" Still, still in mutual sufferance lies The secret of true living; Love scarce is love that never knows The sweetness of forgivingl Ivev. Chables S. Veddeb, D. D., Pastor Huguenot Church, Charleston, S. C. COD AMONG ORCHARDS. Rev. Dr. Talmage on the Pomology o f the Bible. Text: "The fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind." Genesis L, 2. Beginning with the Garden of Eden as the first spontaneous, magniilcent orchard, and the expulsion from it of the first pair because they tasted of the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge, Dr. Talmag3 continued: This story of Eden is rejected by some as an improbability, If not an impossibility, but nothing on earth is easier for me to believe than the truth of this Edenio story, for I have seen the same thing in this year of our Lord 1897. I could call them by name if it were politic and righteous to do so, the men who have sacrificed a paradise on earth and a paradise in heaven for one sin. Their house wont. Their library went. Their good name went. Their field of usefulness went. Their health went. Their immortal soul went. My friends! there is just ono sin that will turn you out tr paradise if you do not quit it. You know what it is and God knows, an", you had better drop the hand and arra lifted toward that bending bough teforo you pluck your own ruin. When Adam stood on tiptoe and took in his right hand that one round peach, or apricot, or apple, gatan reached up and .pulled down the round, beautiful world of our present resi dence. Overworked artist, overwrought merchant, amhitious politician, avaricious ; speculator, betto take that warning from Adam's orchard and stop before-you put out for that one thing more. . But I turn from Adam's orohard to Solo mon's orchard. With his own hand lie writes: "I made me gardens and orchards." Not depending on the natural fall of rain, he irrigated those orohards. Pieces of the aqueduct that watered those gardens I have seen, and the reservoirs are as perfect as when thousands of years ago, the mason's trowel smoothed the mortar ovor their gray surface. No orohard of olden or modem time, probably, ever had its thirst so well slaked. The largest of these reservoirs Is 582 feet long, 207 feet wide, and fifty feet deep. These reservoirs Solomon refers to when hesays: "I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that brlngoth forth trees." Solomon used to ride out to that orchard before breakfast. It gave him an appetite and something to think about all the day. Josephus, the historian, represents him us going out "early in the morning from Jerusalem, to the famed rocks of Etara, a fertile region, delighted with paradises and runnjng springs. Thither the King, in robes of white rode in his chariot, escorted by a troop of mounted archers chosen for their youth and stature, and clad in Tyrian purple, whose long hair, powdered with gold dust, sparkled in the sun." After Solomon had taken his morn ing ride in these luxuriant orchards, he would sit down and write those wonderful things In the Bible, drawing his illustra tions from the frutls he had that very morning plueked or rlddeu under. What mean Solomon's orchards and Sol omon's gardens? for they seem to mingle the two into one, flowers underfoot, and pomegranates overhead. To me they sug gest that religion Is a luxury. They mean that our religion is the luscious, the aro matic, the pungent, the aborescent, the efflorescent, the follaged, the umbrageous. They mean what Edward Payson meant when ho declared: "If my happiness con tinues to increase, I cannot support it much longer." It means what Bapa Padmanjl, a Hindoo convert, meant when he said: "I long for my bed, not that I may sleep I lie awake often and long but to hold com munion with my God." " You think religion is a good thing for a funeral. Oh, yes. But Solomon's orchard means moro. Religion is a good thing now, when you aro in health and prosper ity and the appetite is good for citrons, and apples, and apricots, and promegran ates. Religion for the funeral. Oh, yes; but religion for the wedding breakfast? re ligion for the brightest spring morning and autumn's most gorgeous sunset, Re llsrton for the day when the stocks aro up just as much as when stocks are down. Religion when inspiration is easy, as wen as for the last gasp; when the temperature is normal, as well as when it reaches 104. It may be a bold thing to say, but I risk it, that if all the people, without respect to belief or character, at death passed into everlasting happiness, religion for this world is such a luxury that no man or woman could afford to do without it. The dear old book opened with Adam's orchard and closes with St. John's orchard. St. John went into the orchard through a stone gate, the black basalt of the Isle of Patmos, to which he had been exiled. That orchard which he saw was and is in heaven. One person will err in speak ing of heaven as all material, and another person describes h3aven as all figurative and spiritual, and both are wrong. Heaven is both material and spiritual, as we are both material and spiritual. While much of the Bible account of heaven Is to be taken figuratively and spirltually.it is plain to me that heaven has also a material exist ence. How milch was literal and how much was figurative, I cannot say, but St. John saw two rows of trees on each side of a river, and it differed from other orohards in the fact that the trees bore twelve manner of fruits. The learned translaters of our com mon Bible say it means twelve different kinds of fruits in one year. Albert Barnes says in means twelve crops of the same kind of fruit in one year. Not able to de cide which is the more accurate transla tion. I adopt both. If it mean twelve dif ferent kinds of fruit, it declares variety in heavenly joy. If it means twelve crops of the same kind of fruit, it declares abun dance in heavenly joy, and they are both true. Variety? Ob, yes! Not an eternity with nothing but music that Oratorio woulil be too protracted. Not an eternity of procession on white horses that would be too long in the stirrups. Not an eternity of watching the river that would be too much of the picturesque. Not an eternity of plucking fruits from the tree of life that would bo too much of the heavenly orchard. But all manner of varieties, and I will tell you of at least twelve of those varieties: Joy of divine worship; joy over the victories of the Lamb who was slain; joy over the repentant sinners; joy of re counting our own rescue; joy of embracing old friends; joy at recognition of patriarchs, apostles, evangelists and martyrs; joy of ringing harmonies; joy of reknitting broken friendship; joy at the explanation of Provi dential mysteries; joy at walking the bou!e vards of gold; joy at looking at walls green with emerald, and blue with sapphire, and crimson with jasper, and aflash with ame thyst, entered through swinging gates, their posts, tho hinges and thoir panels of richest pearl; joy that there Is to be no sub sldence, no reaction, no terminus to the felicity. While there is -enough of tho pomp of the city about heaven for those who like the city best, I thank God there is enough in the Bible about country scenery in heaven to please those of us who wera born in the country and never got over it. Now, you may have the streets of gold In heaven, give me the orchards, with twelve manner of fruits, and yielding their fruit every month; and the loaves of tho trees are for "tho healing of the nations; and there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and the Lamb shall be in it; and His servants shall serve Him; and they shall see His face, and His name shall be in their foreheads; and there shall bo no night there; and thay need no candle, neither light of the sun, for the Lord God giveth them light; and they shall reign for ever and ever." But just think of a place so brilliant that the noonday sun shall be removed from the mantle of the sky because it is too feeble ataperl Yet most of all am I impressed with the fact that I am not yet fit for that place, nor you either. By the reconstructing and sanc tifying grace of Christ we need to be made all over. And let us be getting our passports ready if we want to get into that country. An earthly passport is a personal matter, telling our height, our girth, the color of our hair, our features, our complexion, and our age. I cannot get into a foreign port on your passport, nor can you get in on mine. Each one of us for himself needs a divine signature, written by the woundei hand of the Son of God, to get into the heavenly orchard, un der the laden branches of which, in God's good time, we may meet the Adam of tho first orchard, and the Solomon of the sec ond orchard, and the St. John of the last orchard, to sit down under the tree of which tho church in the Book of Canticles speaks when it says: "As the apple tree among tho trees of the wood, so is my Beloved among the sons. I sat down un der His shadow with great delight and His fruit was sweet to my taste;" and there it may be found that to-day we learned the danger of hankering after one thing more, and that religion is a luxury, and that there is a divine antidote for all poisons, and that we had created in us an appetite for heaven, and that it was a wholesome and saving thing for us to have discoursed on the pomology of the Bible, or God among the orchards. Trolley Slaughter of Egyptians. It is said that the electric railroads at Cairo, Egypt, are beating those of Brooklyn in the record of numbers of people killed.

Lemon aud orange jelly are pretty and toothsome served together. Al though some cooks make these dishes so stiff with gelatine that they are leathery, it is usually considered real ly nicer to see a quivering, unformed mass of jelly rather than a moulded form in any device, if the latter calls for that unappetizing thickness of the materials employed. It is certainly injurious to the teeth to subject them to an extreme of tem perature, and, although most persons eat of frozen foods and drink iced wa ter freely, it has become a question whether hot water so often recom mended for dyspeptics as an ante-breakfast beverage may not hurt the teeth. It can, at any rate, do no harm to take it through a tube or a straw. Long-standing cofi'ee stains are ex ceedingly difficult to remove. Pour boiling water through the fabric.

He Saved His Hat; At Scotch weddings Home years ago it used to be the custom to batter the hat of the bridegroom as he was leav ing the house in which the ceremony took place. On one of those occa sions a newly married couple rela tives of the bridegroom) determined to carry out the observance of this custom to the letter. The bridegroom heard them discussing their plans and dispatched a messenger to the car riage, which was waiting, with his hat some time previous to his departure. Then, donning the hat of a male rela tive who had ploted against him, ho prepared to go out to the carriage. No sooner had he got to the door than his hat was furiously assaulted and almost destroyed. He walked out of the house amid , the laughter of tlie bystanders and entered the ve hicle; then taking his battered hat from his head he threw it into the hands of its proper owner, exclaiming: "Hey, Mr. Dougall, there's your hat," and donned his oivn, amid the cheers of all present. Mr. Dougall was the unhappiest looking man in Scotland for some timo after that. London Telegraph. Tho Walking Fish. Recently very remarkable fish have been captured in this country, found many thousands of miles from their native seas. One was caught on the Pacific coast the other day near Betterton. O. O. Warner, of Philadelphia, caught the curiosity which turned out to be a native of the Indian Ocean, and which is known the world over as the walk ing fish, so called because it really does have feet which it uses as a mode of locomotion. As a matter of fact, the walking fish is a ghoulish-appearing thing, for the little claw legs which are seen, two on each side of the crea ture, are decidedly uncanny.
