Years ago it was established that particles picked up on the coasts f Fas de Calais had their origin in the rocks of Brittany, from 120 to ISO miles distant. Another standard fact is the discovery on the coast of Ienmark of chalk dust which un doubtedly came from the cliffs of Kormandy. Prof. Thoulet, the French oceano srapTier, has just addressed a report tr tho Academy of Science on the precise manner in which these par ticles travel such great distances. He finds that the result is due entirely to the action of waves and tides, causing the particles of sand to pur se a zigzag course, which he likens to the teeth of a saw, and having in the channel and North Sea a general direction from east to west. The professor calculates that each Kxain travels at least 8000 yards tip and do wn the beach under the impulse of tho incoming and retreating waves for each yard that it is conveyed par allel with the coast line. Thus, al lowing something for the influence of thfi -wind when the eand is dry, the :bc.rrj from Brittany found along the Pas 3e Calais strand must have trav eled something like a million miles to reach there. On an average about fifteen waves a minute strike the beach, and these cause a lateral movement o about iiie centimetre, or one-tenth of an Ineb3 which, however, is apt to be constantly reversed by winds, cur rents and obstructions. It is inferred that the journey performed by each ?rraia of sand must take at least fifty years, and may easily consume a hun dred. Pittsburg Press. TUB BUTTONHOLE TRICK.

The interesting fact that it may Le warmer in the arctic regions than in Britain was illustrated by a tele gram received recently from Tromso, mora than 20 0 miles within the arctic circle It wa3 therein stated that the lenspprature was seventy degrees in i!he shade. In London about the same lime It was fifty-six degrees. And in thi earlier part of the year there wore occasions when the temperature mt Iceland was higher than that of Britain. A still move remarkable state of affairs occurs when that strange warm wind known as the Fahn blows down from tho Ice and. snow in Greenland. Then in mid winter, during the ljug urcllc night, extensive thaws may occur, and for several consecutive days it may be warmer in northern Crcenlaud than in southern France. London Globe. MYSTERY OF THE BEANS. Every boy likes to do tricks, but when he can easily make his own trick his joy is doubled. Here Is a neat one and is made tint's: Get some thin pine strips and whit tle out two sides tho shapes of those shown in an illustration, cutting grooves for the covers at tho top and bottom, as the box has a cover above and below. Next whittle out the end ! pieces, which are square, just like the ends of any box. Nail the sides and ends together, and fit in the covers, The Box and the Two Covers. which slide in the groves. One of the covers has the centre slightly hol lowed out, so that a small bean may be glued in the hollow and slip over the end, when the cover is drawn off, without catching. Now, explains IhePhiladelphiaLed ger, put three beans loosely in the box and shut the lids before display ing the box to your friends. Hold the box loosely in your hand, so that either side may be turned up, and ask one of your friends to guess "Odd" or "Even." If ho says "even," turn the box so that the cover with the bean glued to the under side is uppermost, and slide it off, when three beans will be seen in the box. If the box is turned the other side up, and the cover slid off, four beans will be seen in the bottom, and thus you can mystify your friends by making the beans odd or even at will. THE CATAMOUNT STORY. Jay Cooke's life was now running at full tide. ITo was asked to nego tiate loans for the Mexican and Jap anese Governments. He was con stantly in contact with financial and political leaders of the first rank. He fished wiih President Grant and Gen eral Moorliead in the Potomac, with Chase in Lake Erie, and with Senator Cattell. of New Jersey, off the coast of that State. Several times Mrs. Grant and the President's sons were in cam) with the Cookes at the finan cier's South Mountain estate in south ern Pennsylvania. An entire town ship tlipre, which was named for Jay Cooke, cast its vote solidly for Gen eral Grant in 1S72, after one of their visits to the little neighborhood. Here the banker was a body with the rest. One night while he was telling them Indian stories, receiving their rapt attention, a hideous screech was heard outside. Instantly each lad sprang to bis feet. The cry was re peated. 'Hush!" exclaimed Mr. Cooke. "It's a catamount! " All the boys drew revolvers, and organized a party to make an end to the ferocious animal. They at lait traced it to a tree, and banged away without knowing that, acting under J. Cooke's instructions, a man on the place, who was safely hidden, was uttering the cries while holding an effigy aloft by a rope. Finally a shot brought the thing to tho ground, and the boys ran to claim the prize. Robert pouglas, son of Stephen A. Douglas, shouted exultingly, "I killed the catamount!" and its soon as straw was seen protruding from under the skin, there was no disposition to dis pute his title to the honor. The next day the hills resounded with the news that Douglas had killed the cata mount. A few years passed; the boy became a man, and was stumping the State of North Carolina in a contest conducted, if on a smaller scale, very much like the serie3 of joint debates between his father and Abraham Lin coin in Illinois. At the end of a speech it was customary to inquire if any one in the audience had a ques tion to propound to the orator. Final ly one night Douglas was faced by an old fellow who said: ".Mr. Douglas, might I ask you a question?" "Certainly," he answered unsus pectingly, "Well, there is just one thing I would like to ask you, and it is this," the man continued gravely, "who killed the catamount?" Dr. Ober holtzer, in the Century. It has been calculated that $50, 000,000 worth of standing timber is destroyed annually in the United States. DR. CHARLES EDWARD LOCKE. Subject: Crime of Unhappiness. Brooklyn, N. Y. Dr. Charles E. Locke returned to his pulpit in the Hanson Place Methodist Episcopal Church Sunday. Dr. Locke's subject was "The Crime of Unhappiness; or, Where Happiness May be Found." His text was Isaiah 35:10: "They shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away." Dr. Locke said in the course of his sermon: It is our duty to be happy, it is our right to be happy. The philosopher's stone, which can transform all the dross of life into purest joys, is hope. The fabled fountain which will in sure eternal yotlth and beauty is con tentment. True happiness is not only a duty and a right, but. it is a pos sible possession; it is the sure prize of those who seek aright. The rapt prophet Isaiah boldly foretells the time when the people "shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away," and "everlasting joy shall be upon their heads." The radiant promises of the Word of God are not to' torture and to tantalize mankind into woes and slaveries more abject, but are intended to awaken our lethargic natures and somnolent consciences that we may be aroused to claim our high and holy and happy estate. Un happiness is a crime against God and our fellows, as well as against our selves. There is an intricate and exquisite conspiracy in the universe to make men happy. There are carnivals of be?uly, panoramas of splendor, ora torios of music, laughing waters, dancing sunbeams, sineinc bird chanting seas, delicious fruits and enchanting flowers. Nature is not f I'll t linnll V. ,'n n : rt , . 1. i .. cruei, neann is contagious, there Is a survival of the fittest. "The com mon course of things is in favor of happiness; happiness is the rule, mis ery the exception." As God made the sun to shine and the flowers to bloom and the seas to ebb and flow, so He made man to be happy. "If any man is unhappy," said a wise man, "this must be his own fault, for God made all men to be happy." The very law of our being is happiness. A crime is an offence against the laws of God and man; unhappiness is such an offence; hence a crime. Happiness may bo discovered in life's activities in unremitting en deavor, not in the bluster and haste which enervate and defeat, but in the constant use of our capacities. Un rest and atrophy occur when ener gies are allowed to become stagnant. An aimless life is always an unhappy life. Leisure and rest have exquisite flavor where they are the punctuation points of duties faithfully discharged and ambitions steadily realized. Ac tivity defies infirmity, and octogena rians like John Wesley and John Whittier, Gladstone and Pope Leo XIII hold old age at bay while they elaborate the closing achievements of eventful careers. The benevolently inclined young lady who cut off tho tail of the pollywog to hasten the i stages of its evolution wept in dis may when she found she had ended the life of the little dismembered creature. It needed the labor of get ting rid of its tail to dcvelon strength for the responsibilities of its promo tion. If there are stunted growths and undeveloped live3 among the youth of these prosperous decades, may it not be that our educational and domestic methods are affording too much assistance, or ease, or lux ury to these little human pollywogs? Every faculty of our being is made more robust by constant and sensible activit'. To be able to bring things to pass conduces to true happiness. What ri,al joy is stored away in a good book! Study may be found an unfailing source of pleasure. The culture of the mind brings forth the flower and the fragrance and the fruitage of our intellectual natures. Truth invigorates; it makes buoyant and youthful. Truth is never old, never discordant. Then, too, what perennial fountains of sparkling hap piness are music and art and poetry. And what shall be said about nature? If people would be happy, they must get out of doors. God made the heavens, but man made the houses. Many houses are devices of Satan to shut man away from his God. All nature is redolent of divinity. It is hard for a naturalist to be an un believer. Some great nature students have despised creeds, but it wag be cause their great God was too mighty to be bounded and measured by man's dialectical tape iine or foot rule. Let us get out of doors. God, music, might and men are out of doors, and If we would be happy we Uiu'sc ksso ciate much with the world outside, for we have a divine commission to subdue the earth. The "flower in the cranied wall" has yet many beau tiful lessons to the thoughtful visi tor. Like the story of Edward Row land Sill, let us fling open the win dows of our grim towns and let in the "gust of sunshine and the sum mer scent of rose, and be sure that the window sill stands open and shall never be shut again!" Etquisite happiness is found in life's true friendships. The widow of Schumann says that whenever she was to play in public any of her hus band's music, she would read over and over again the dear love letters he had written her during his life. All true love is divine, and what we call human love is really divine love, and is one of our earthly faculties which is the sure prophecy of the estate of infinity to which wo are going, as it is the token of tho in finite heart from which we have sprung. No man can be truly happy who does not love or is not truly loved. The greatest of these is love! Happiness i3 always found iu ser vice. He who would be "happy" among you, as well as "he who would be chief among you, must be the ser vant of all." When tho oid French nobility chose as their motto, "No blesse Oblige," they simply accentu ated one of the finest principles of the social organism, that "rank or privilege i3 obligation." Autocracies, feudal systems, wars and all selfish ambitions must gradually go down before such a sceptre. lie whc not j biuco all clouds have a silver lin ing and every dark shadow a bright side, for there would be no shadows if there were no sun, if any one would be happy, he must look for the bright side. It may be his duty, unlike tho sun dial, to mark other than the bright hours, but he will not be wise unless be adopts the motto of a ven erable English bishop, "Serve God and be cheerful." It is hard to per suade some people to be Christians when it is seen that occasionally the most unhappy and most disagreeable people pose in a community as Chris tians. One of the first things true religion does for people is to make it possible for people to live with them. It may be probable that, fault-finding and complaiuing people will escape purgatory, but It is certain that those who have to live with them do not. I am sure God has a special crown of beauty in heaven for thosa peoplo who are compelled to live on earth with disagreeable people. In possessing Christ as our life) and our truth and our way, we have a specific for the world's unrest and care and a sure prescription for hap piness. He was a wise and skillful doctor who. when one of his patients described to him her symptoms, wrote thi3 prescription for her: "Go home and read your Bible for an hour every day." I notice that somebody is proposing that the office of priest and physician be combined. I should have no objection if there could be a corresponding doubling of time and capacity. There Is no doubt that soul sickness is the cause of much of the world's ailment. Christ came to heal the world's woss, and the bur dens of humanity contemplate that men shall be wIsd enough to accept divine heln in carrying the loads which would not have been laid upon the race without a Great Burden Bearer. It must be remembered that true happiness is a cslestial exotic, as Sheridan sing3: , True hr.ppiirss I . i3 not the growth of earth. The soil is fruitless if you seek it there; 'Tis an exotic of celestial birth. And never blossoms but in celestial air. Sweet plant of paradise! Its seeds are sown In here and there a breast of heav enly mold. It rises slow and buds, but ne'er was known - To blossom here the climate is too cold. And however Bobbie Burns may bave failed to fulfill in his own pa thetic career tho theology of his songs, it was not because his lips or his lyre Jacked the true gospel of happy and ussful living: It's no in titles nor in rank; It's no in wealth like London bank To purchase peace and rest. P's no in making muckle'mair. It's no in books; it's no in lear, To make us truly blest. If happiness hae not her seat And centre in the breast. We may be wise, or rich, or great: But never can bo blest. In the advent the angel said he brought good tidiugs of great joy. David sang long ago, "Happy is that people whoss god is the Lord!" The Christian religion has set the world to singing. Christianity is truth se to music. Sin and death go out of the world when Christ and life come in. A littI-3 boy understood his father to say that children should be brought up in the "fear and ammunition" of the Lord. There i3 an old classical adage that "Every lover is a sol dier." Horace dedicated to his favorite deity hi.? lyre, his torch and his bow. So if we would be happy we must be useful; knights of the Cross, armed with the shield of faith and the sword of the Spirit, and girt with the truth according to Jesu3 Christ! "Lying Spirits." Gome noteworthy admissions wero made by several speakers at the an nual Convention of Spiritualists held in London recently. The secretary of the Union, in a speech of medium ship, warned his hearers that there were grave dangers attending the practice. Two city gentlemen who also gave their testimony, admitted that a "spirit ' had grossly deceived them. By several professional Spirit ualists it is freely admitted that lying spirits may deceive even the "elect." The history of Spiritualism leaves no doubt that these "lying spirits" have been very numerous. Then what can be the value of communications from the other side which are thus imper iled? What guarantee has any one that the truth is being told? To certain people there is a great fascination in the idea of communi- eating directly with the "beyond." But what ii;crni?.tioi H-3 ever : reached us froa the other side that lo , really trustworthy, or of any practi cal use? From an intellectual and evidential point of view, there' is nothing less satisfactory than the re sults of Spiritualism. On the other hand, according to Spiritualists them selves, there are grave dangers at tending the medium. The Bible, in forbidding medium ship is our friend. God does not wish His children to be at the disposal of lying spirits. He has told us all that it is necessary to know in this life, and if men refuse that word, they will not be persuaded though one ros3 from tho dead. London Christian. A Prayer. O my God, Thou wert In my heart, and requiredst nothing but a turning of my mind Inward to Thee to make me feel Thy presence. O Infinite Goodn?ss, Thou wert so near, and I ran hither and thither to seek Thee, but found Thee not. My life was a burden, though my happiness was within me. I was poor in the midst of riehep, and starving with hunger near a table spread with dainties and near a continual feast. Mm;. Guyon. Peace, Quietness, Rest.

The nub of the lesson Is to be found In the stumbling block and the judgment seat. We are to be scrupulous in all things as well as in the use of intoxi cating liquors lest we shall be stum bling blocks. And wo are further to be very careful because we are to render account before the judgment seat of the Almighty according to our deeds in this life. It Is usual to apply this scripture to the man or woman who uses intox icants. Especially is it applied to the Christian man or woman who uses liquor. And it is well. Drink is a good thing to dispense with regard less of our rights. It is a waste of money. Its pleasure is fallacious. Its consequences are too uncertain and may be definitely vicious. Its Influence may be worse than we ever dream It could become through us. Taking all things into consideration it is no unwisdom to say that every man ought to leave liquor entirely alone as a beverage. But while it Is the custom to re member what we ought to do with liquor or ought not to do with it in Its personal relations to us it is quite as largely the fashion to forget that the most of us, especially those of us who are given the suffrage of a free manhood in this land, deliberately place liquor as a stumbling block in the way of men. And we do it by permitting the business to exist at all. We do it by grantihg it the right by and with the consent of the Govern ment, which in fact we are, to create as well as to supply a demand, to bring sorrow and misery and destruc tion and death into the homes of our fellow-men. It is not enough that a man shall refrain from drinking intoxicating liquor himself. He must see to it that so far as his consent at least is concerned the Government will not be allowed to grant a license to a business which the whole Southland for economic and moral reasons is getting rid of, which the courts of the country have declared to be a nuisance and to have no constitution al right to exist, which is admitted to be a chief agent of tho forces of wick edness wherever it is found, which debauches government and destroys theopportunity for multitudes of men, women and children to possess that peace and contentment and chance in life to which under the Constitution of this country as under the laws of Almighty God they are entitled. Furthermore it is illogical for a Christian man who has done his duty in the premises so far as his civic re lations to his own community or com monwealth is concerned to refuse to wage the fight relentlessly against the national forces of this organized iniquity. For we are not simply a confederation of States, we are a na tion. And Massachusetts helps to make the. laws that regulate the pub lic policy of the State of Oregon. The South makes law for the North as well as for itself. And if it is wise for a man to refuse the sanction of his suffrage to the allied forces of the liquor business in the State of Georgia it is no less wise for him to protest against a governmental ac quiescence to its national existence. A man who is an abolitionist so fai ns the saloon is concerned in the city of Boston has no business to be any thing else than that as a citizen ol this United States. The liquor business will go wrhen the church ceases to allow it to be a stumbling block in the way of a na tion. And it will not go before. Bui whether it go for economic or foi moral reasons its end is in sight and sure. For it is as unscientific as it is immoral to allow it to exist. To perpetuate it is to perpetuate a plague and a national disgrace. And we will not do it. We ought to refuse to sanction it at all because of the fact that we shall give an account before the judgment seat of Christ according to our deeds done in the flesh. It is doubtful that any Christian man will upon sober second thought care to admit in the presence of Almighty God that by and with his personal consent as a citizen of America the curse of nie'Anferieari "saloon, T ruined homes, blighted lives, sank precious souls for whom Jesus died in the mire of unspeakable iniquity. It is doubtful if any of us if we thought of it carefully would care to have upon our souls at the judgment day Einy portion wn?.i?o?Y?r 01 tne uioou L'uat has been wrung from innocent hearts by the viciousness of the liquor business. But so long as we perpet uate it we are responsible in no un real fashion for it, for its crimes, for its attendant misery. God grant that soon we shall all see that to grant a license to the liquor business is no better than li censing a brothel or incest or murder or all the crimes upon the code. God grant that soon the church will see the blood that is upon her hands. For we have stood so idly by and given our consent. Like Paul when the church awakes to a consciousness of her wickedness there will be au exhibition of religious consecration that will revolutionize the world. Eternal Life. Eternal life is not a quantity it is quality. It is not something we receive when the pilgrimage is over; It is something we have at this pres ent moment. Rev. G. C.

Foster-Mllburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. FRANCE GROWING POORER. Statistician Reaches Th2t Conclusion :hes Th2t Conclusiajv in Annual Inherit From Decline ar Recent statistics compiled by Al fred Renouard of Paris lead to the conclusion that the wealth of France Is declining. The method of calcula tion which he has adopted is that of multiplying by 33 all the property, appraised In any given year for the collection of the inheritance. The theory Is that practically every thing In the country changes hands by demise once in thirty-three years, or a generation. The average amount taxed as inher itance was about 843,000,000 francs about the close of the Restoration period; It had Increased to 2,500,000, 000 in 1848; then to 4,729,000,000 in 1870, and to 6,930,000,000 on the aver age between 1891 and 1895. This in dicated that the total national wealth at that period was 223,000,000,000 francs, or $45,600,000,000. In the period between 1896 and 1900, Inclusive, the average annual amount passing by inheritance was 6,489.000,000 francs, or a decline of 441,000,000. From this it Is deduced the wealth of France decreased 4,500,000,000 francs, or $2,900,000,009 in that period. Changes In the law of inheritance made In 1901 by complicating the as sessment of property with deductions fcr debt have made Renouard's method of calculating inapplicable since then. But he is of opinion that the declino has continued or even grown more marked, owing to an ex odus cf French capital to other coun tries. He considers that the subject calls for tho serious attention of the Government. New York Sun. There is a salve for every sore. Smollett. So. 40-'07. PLEASANT SUMMER Right Focd the Cause.
