saying: "Kciir, for the Kingdom uf Heaven
is at hand." Tho salvation of Jehovah,
whether it Is. the Kingdom oirored to Irnel,
or the higher position olfeml to the church.
Is a prepared salvation even as Sialism Kiid:
"Thy salvation which Thou hast preiarcd"
(Luke ii, :m. Hi); and il is a II, from llrst to lust,
Jiiiiiiii.il up In Jesus Christ,
is. "And (hey all with one consent U-gnn
to make excuse." Nothing to do but lo take
il; simply to accept the Invitaliou an. Is
there; jet they prefer not to. How- anxious
many are to g t an Invitation to anything
great In this world, and how disuppdtitisl If
left out. Hero is the (lisl of Heaven inviting
imeiy 10 ine ricnca ot ins grace and glory,
nnd it is not considered worth accepting.
His feast is despised, Hi invitation spurned.
"I have bought a piece of ground, and 1
must nei-ds go and seo it: I pray thee have
me exeuse..'T Jlj, little pie of ground for
which he hus pud a few shekels is of more
iiiipirtuneo llinu riuit nhirb has cost so much.
l'.. "I hnvo boneht livoyokeof oxen, and
I go to prove tlirni: I pray this) hnvo me
excused," Lin ls must l iuh ii to, and oxen
must lie proved, but the great feast provided
by inlhilie love may go a Urging. It is
nothing to them. Tho earlh is the l,,r,l'sand
the fulness thonsjf; the rattle on a thousand
hills aro lbs (ls. xxiv. I: I. lui: vet tlu-mnrn
fisihi (ami plenty of tliem ts!uy) who preforn
little wliich they can luiivhiise to thuensit
riches niiieh the Lnrdnf all olfers so freely to
"whosis'yer will." Any one of these ten oxen
wasa rebuke to their owner, for it is written
"Tho ox liiioivctli its owner. but mv
10.00 eople do not lui m" iIki. i, Was it not
miner iaie hi pi-ovo oxen alter liiiylng theiui
0.00 i M- I have iiiuitM a wif.-, and there
fore I cannot come." This Is iw bettor Hum
theotlicrs, yet l he refusal is even more de-
cldcd "I cannot come." If the iiivituiioii did
uot Ineludu bis w ife, he iiiizht have had soinr
excuse; but (itsl's invitations ineludu all who
are willing; und while Hie others might have
to leavo their lauds ami ns.n, lie could bring
bis wife with him.

What is particularly gratifying is tho

and for that matter no other garden has
even a single specimen.

Tltn animal la-longs to tlio badger
family and is cMreniely shy ami retiring
in disposition, it is a habitant of the
entire northern hemisphere nnd is not
very plentiful in nny locality. It has
been known to zoologists for it long time,
yet about it hnvo been relatwi mori'tnnr
velotis tales than even of the salanian.lor
or chameleon.
All over t lui world where it U found
nntivo hunters tell incrediblo tales of its
teroet'y and voracity. As far bac k as lobs!
tUnf ilaginiis, it Scandinavian writer,
mentions the Wolverine and tells how,'
after gorging itself with f,M),l, it ill try
iu siiirt-zc iiseit nirweeii two closely
growing trii-s to enablo it to digest it's
uieaU, after which if, will ngain return
to devour more,
Every district marly gives it a name
and it is indiscriminately called tho In
dian devil, the glutton, tho ijuiik hutch,
the carcajou.
I.iiiuii'us descriljcs tho animal under
the nanui of tho ono eyed glni ton, and
the term one eyed is Mipia.sed to hnvo
come from tho fact that tho only speci
men he ever saw or heard deseriljcd was

Tlio western triipjsTs givo tho wol
verine a reputation for craftiness, t im

will fight worso than a grir..ly bear. In
fact, a scout of Superintendent Uiowu's
described to him a light between a wul
verino and a she grizzly with two half
grown cubs, in which tho wolverine
conquered its opponents, and declared
that ho witnessed tlio whole buttle from
a treo.
Of course tlio shyness and suspicious
ness of tho animal has much to do with
theso tales, but there is no doubt that it
is fur moro powerful than otto would
suspect from its sizo, which is a bout that
of a hulf grown setter dog. It 4s a terror
lotrnpiiera from tho way it will eteul tho
bait from their traps, and if camjht will
fight desperntvly.

For fifty years electrieians have boen
trying to dlsooMir a method of convert
ing heat directly into elwtrlcitv. Until
recently no results of commercial value
liavo been obtained. Such a method
teems now to have boon discovered or in
vented by ii young man from Maine, H.
D, Cox, If Mr. Cox's claims nro just
and capitalists have contidetico enough
m them to have funned n company with
it capital of l,(ilKI,tH)0 the whole sys

bH expensive for ordinary nseg. It is
imjKissible to estimate, iu advance the
immense viiltio of Mr. Cox's Invention,
but It is certain that he oxiwets almosti
incrediblo results from it, nnd tluit ho has
inspired with Ins conlidonce sonto of the
shrewdest business men of Hartford nnd
Boston.
As ban been said, n company has been
organized and incorporated In Maine,
where Mr. Cox was when some Hartford
men met him. Since then the business
has all 1m vii brought to Hartford, and
all that has been done sinco hus been

company. The capital stiK'k .is $1,000,

the patents asked for by Mr. Cox hnvo

a'fewdays. Until foreign and domestic,
patents have been npnlied fuss
The apparatus used for converting the
hent into electricity is so simple that the
company does not dignify it by tho name
of machine. JJy Mr. Cox's method heat
is changed to electricity as simply as
water is changed to steam. His furnace
is all that may be mm. From glowing

the aid of boiler, engine, or dynamo. A

IJefore the company was formed Mr.
Cox had a furnace at homo by which he
ran many electric lights. This furnace
was injured iu being transform! to Hart
