OWAH1) ALSTON, A NATURE WROUGHT ITON IT A PIC TURE OF THE SAVIOUR'S FACE. A high and rugged eminence near the Bavarian village of Obcr Amtncrgau is locally known as Mount Calvary, and on that rocky knoll every ton years tho de vout Bavarian peasants perform the "Miracle Play," in which is represented every detail of the passion of the Saviour. The play is performed, it is Baid, out of gratitude to Ood for causing a cessation of desolating plague which wus breathing its pestilential breath over t h c surrounding villages in tho year 1 033, the chief men and women of tho town Towing that thereafter they would carry out the "Christ tragedy" at tho opening of each decade as a means of religious instruction. The last three performances at Obcr Amtncrgau were given in 1870, 1880 and 18110. At the performance of the 1 Mysteries" in 1880 an American lady named Mrs. Oliver T. Bacon was present and picked up two small pebbles as mementos of the place. Eight years after, while labeling thee relics with the intention of present ing them to the museum of the Young Men's library at Atlanta, Mrs. Bacon made a most startling discovery. She accidentally turned ono of the stones at a certain angle and was dumbfounded to see a picture upon it, wrought by muure, which every one who has since examined the curiosity fay is an excellence repro duction of the general conception of the face of Christ. The owner has given up all idea of presenting the oddity to the Atlanta or any other museum and has been exhibiting it (always in the interest of funic deserving charity), in the princi pal cities of the Eastern States, as well as in France, Germany, Norway and Russia. Ilavd headed geologists, who take but liitlo stock i n supernatural stories of any kind, particularly those re fcrring to stones, say that there is no mystery whatever in this famous "Ober Auinicrg iU stone" other than that shown iu the remarkable reseniblauce the mark ings have to a face. According lo their tell, the inure is a dendritic production being formed by the aclion of dew and rain on the mineral matter of tho stone, which has tiickled into a fissure and formid a remarkable example of "occi dental resemblance." In course of time the stone separated at tho fissure, expos ing the picture, and it is believed that if the other half of the pcbblo could be found it wou'd exhibit a duplicate of the image', Tho stone, is of line and chert and is about one inch iu length.

KONTCIKN.OFTIIE UNIVER SITY OF WUUZBURO, HAS AROUSED THE SCIENTIFIC WORLD. WHEN A HAD MAN SETS OUT TO RE FORM HE IS FIGURING ON GET TING A SOFTER SNAP. Scientists everywhere are discussing tho recent wonderful discovery of Prof. Rontgen, professor of physics in the University of Wurzburg, Bavaria, which it is believed is destined to revolutionize photography. Ho can tako pictures, it is said, the interior of solid substances; can photo graph tho skull of a man or his whole skeleton, showing how ono would look without the flesh; can picture defects and inequalities in the heart of monls, and can do many other incredible things. Professor Schuster, of Owens College, Manchester, in discussing in the British Medical Journal tho remakable photo graphic effects discovered by Professor Rontgen, states that tho photographs obtained are of the natures of shadows, and theii great sharpness is itself a tes timony that the new radiation must be propagated in straight lines, Tho radia tion passes in straight lines easily through paper, cardboard or wood, and produces photographic effects after having passed through two complete packs of cards. The photographs may be taken in ordi nary daylight if tho plato is kept in its dark slide, which will completely cut off all ordinary lights rays, and yet transmit the new initiation. One of the photographs which Profes sor Rontgen has sent to Professor Schus ter shows a complete image of a compass needle, with the divi-ion into degrees of tho circle over which the needle is placed, The compass noodle, before being photo graphed, was placed iusido a metal box. As flesh, skin and eartilago are more transparent than bono, the photograph of a hand gives a complete outline of the bones of the hand and fingers, tho out lines of the flesh being only very faintly marked.

RAM'S HORN SOUND A WARNING NOTE TO THE UNREDEEMED. One day the Fox approached the Farm er, who was working in his field, and fter saluting him with a great show of heartiness and friendship, observed: "I have called to have a talk with you on certain mailers, l'or many moons I avo been pained at your want of conli coco in mo. Why is it that you dis trust me?" "You have broken into my coop and eaten my chickens," replied tho Furtu. Yes, lut that was long ago, bo fore I realized tho error of my ways. Know ye, 0 Farmer, that my feelings avo undergone a change, and that I now fully rcaHzo how wicked it was in me to cat your chickens." "So you don't keer fur chickens any more?" "Not a rap, and I wish you could take me back into your confidence and trust inc. I will even mount guard over your coop and keep the Wcasle and tho Pole cat away." That's powerful good of you," said tho Fanner as he leaned on his spade and wiped tho sweat from his brow. Sure you have reformed, eh?" "Quite sure." "And you want me to trust you?" "I do. I want to show you that I am worthy of your full confidence." 'Wall, I'm alius willin' to extend a hand to a feller who is tryin' to climb, nd you kin cun along with mo." 'Thanks, dreadfully!'' replied tho Fox, as he chuckled belaud the farmer s back and followed him to the coop. Upon their arrival there, however, the Fox found the coop empty of fowls, and in an indignant voiej he demanded: ilow now, Sirahl I was to stand guard over your fowls, but I find none lore!" "Oh, as to that," replied Uoclo Reu ben, "I sold the whole outfit to a peddler esterday, but you can remain by tho empty coop and inform tho VVeaslo and tho Pole cat that " "You go to grass, you old niossbackl" interrupted the Fox as he made a bolt or the woods. MORAL. "Wall, I kinder thought so!" said the .inner as he looked after tho fleeing Reynard. "I hev alius noticed that when a bad mao sets out to reform he is figgoriu' on gittin' a softer snap than what he had before " When rum was invented the clt that he could tako a little rest. A cooll head and a warm heart should go together. God's fire on an enemy's head soon melts his heart, Courage not controlled by prudenco is oolisnness. To have self for a master is to bo tho vil's tool. It costs more to bo proud than it docs to bo generous, Ood is in the meeting that a long prayer can't hurt. It was a lie turned loose that put Christ on the cross. Unless we first look up wo will not do much lifiinj' up. A better thing than being a giant is not to bo afraid of ono. It is folly to seek happiness while we are unwilling to be good. Try to give pleasure and you will re ceive more than vou liive. Tho wider tho Bible is opened the straighter it strikes at sin. Nature can only declare that God is. It cannot tell us what he is. A lie is about the meanest thing that for crawled out of the pit.

BUT HE WAS NOT AN ANGEE, JUST THE SAME, AND SO TOLD THE MERCHANT. A boy, rather bright looking, almost pert, in fact, was before a Main street merchant. He was there in response to and advertisement that called for 'bright, reliable boy, with no bad habits." lie looked all right, but the merchant ooucluded to quia tho youngster, partly lor amusement and p irtly to get some a of his aptitude. D.i you ever smoke oigarettes, young man?" 'No, sir." "Go to Sunday schojl every Sunday?" "Yes, sit; some Sundays." "Ever swear when you're mad?" "Somel'uues I say 'dern it.' " "You never sass your father, I hope? "You bet I don't, lie's bigger'n mo." "I hope you always keep yourself lidy and clean." "Yes, sir; in summer time, always." Right here the merchant stopped to get a good one ready, and the boy con clu led to say n few words. 'Say, mister, dwu t you advertise lor a boy?" "Yes; why?" "Why, I kinder thought may bo you wus lookin' fur an angel, and I diiutio wJiere you cm git one." I he interview ended and the met chant didn't got a chance to hire the boy. Cincinnati Tribune.

No ma' ter what business the Chris tian is in, he has no business to be in it if Christ is not at the head of it. Tho peoolo you meet at oamp meeting may think you are a Christian, but what docs your enemy think about it? HERE'S TH E EXPLANATION, The act of putting a lead pencil to the tongue to wet it, just beforo writing, which wo notico in so many people, is one of the oddities of hubit for which it is hard to give any reason, unless it began in tho days when lead pencils were pooror than now and was continued by example into the next generation. A lead pencil should never bo wet. It hardens the lead and ruins the pencil. This fact is kuown by every newspaper men and stenographers. But nearly one else does wet a pencil beforo using it. This fact has been definitely settled by a clerk in a newspaper office. Being of a mathematical turn of mind, he ascertained by actual count that of 50 persons who camo into tho offico to write an advertisement or notice 49 wet a pencil in their mouth before using it. Now this clerk always uses the best pencils that can be procured in fact, is connoisseur in lead pencils, cherishing good one with something of the pride soldier feels in his gun or sword and it hurts his feelings to have his pencil ipoiled. But politeness and business considerations required him to lend his pencil Bcorcs of lime every day. And often, after it had been wet till it was hard and brittle and refused to mark, his feelings would overpower him. Finally he got somo cheap pencils, harpened them and kept them to lend. The first person who took up the stock pencil was a drayman, whose breath smelt of onions and whisky. He held the point in his mouth and soaked it for several minutes, while he was torturing himself to write an advertisement for a missing bulldog. Then a sweet looking young womin came into the office, with kid gloves that buttoned half the length of her arm. She picked up the same old pencil and pressed it to her dainty lips, preparatory to writing an advertisement for a lost bracelet. The clerk would have staid her hand, even at the risk of a box of tho best pencils ever made, but no was too late. And thus that pencil passed troin mouth to mouth tor a week. It was sucked by people of all ranks and stations and all degrees of cleanliness nnd un cleanliness, but wo forbear. Surely no ooo who reads this will ever wet a lead pencil. London Tit Bits.

James Newton Matthews, in The New Bohemian. Dr. Kingsbury in Wil. Messenger. The Bible is to be understood in the usual way. The laws that govern lan guage generally govern Biblical language. God talks to man in the plain language of common life, Read what God says as you would read any book and you will understand what is meant. There are, of course, great mysteries which you will not comprehend in this life; but the great body of Divine Truth may bo un derstood, within certain limitations, so as to give you all iho light aud guidance necessary as a seeker alter una, ine truth and the higher spiritual life. The pplication of intelligence, of saving com mon Bensc to the Word of Life will ena ble us to walk in tho light, aud not grope in darkness. God's words are plain words. His language is not that of the schools or of metaphysicians When He warns or encourages or promises or re veals hidden wisdom, it is done in words of directness and simplicity. "When God promises to give us whatever we ask, it is a Father speaking in the full ness of his love to his children and tak ing for granted that delightful and affeo tionate hearts will instinctively perceive the necessary limitations of his words. Ho means that he will bestow whatever it is proper for him to give, or best for us to receive. Remember that. Then you will not misread or misunderstand or misapply such passages as Mark xi:24: Therefore, I say unto you, What things soever you desire, when yo pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them." Men rend and stumble at the ari;eness of this statement. Before this declaration of the Saviour was made, in tho verse just preceding Christ had laid down specific limitations, for Ho had said, "and shall not doubt in his heart, t shall believe that those things which saith shall come to pa3s." Then the promise of the 2 Uh verse is made, and within the previously stated limita tions Gud will answer the prayer. If doubt or unbelief come in as to tho ful fillment of the promise, Ihcn failuro fol lows. The promise in the 2!ird verse no doubt to tje Apostles who had power given them to work miracles in attesta tion nf (heir own inspiration and the truth and power of God. But in this age the situation is different; there is no need of the exercise of miraculous power perhaps, and, therefore, the promise is limited, it may be, "to the ordinary op erations of Divine grace." Tho limita- tations cut off, exclude entirely all selfish needless and unreasonable requests. Tbe man may not know, docs not know what is best for him best for God to grant him. Hence the true, humble disciple will always feel and say "Not my will, but thine be done " Christ himself, in a most crucial, exacting, painful hour of His lire of trial and suffering, gave us an exhibition of this, most pathetic, most astounding In the dreadful hour in Gcthscniano Ho said to His Father "Nevertheless, not what I will, but what Thou wilt. God only can bestow those Heavenly gifts we need. He only knows what we do need. So let us ask in hu mility, and with a full feeling of depen dence, and with dutiful submission to our Heaveuly Father. In oue request we may be sure always ot an answer: When we truly seek the blessings ot sal vation, for He has said if we seek we shall find; if wo ask we shall receive. ADVERTISEMENTS.
