Vessel interests will also suffer conâ€" siderably, as the range lights to guide the boats to the Lime Kilns: were blown doWn. The lights des- I i l ! troyed are those located at the: Mithigan Central tracks. The tall : smokcstack of the Electric Light 8; ‘ Power Company was toppled over, the grist mill was badly damaged, and the court house was partially wrecked. The storm came from the northwest and was preceded by very little warning. The fact that there Was no loss of life on the river was 'due solely to luck, there being no pleasure parties out in small boats at the time. Trees were uprooted, telegraph wires were blown down, and for some time tne railway ser- yice from Windsor and Sandwich was stopped. The tender leaves unfold ; the flower- ets fair Raise their bright heads in trans- ports of pure bliss ; In ccstacy their fragrant breasts they hate To take with cage-um the south Wind’s kiss. K magic presence permeates the air ; The unyielding earth gives way be- fore its might, In gracious welcome to a. touch so rare, And slender blades put forward to the light. shm'tly Thurstl ,I'Uu-u vv 7 It was mostly the two Sunsâ€"the proprietor and Sam Smith, and noâ€" bodv knows what they might do. The; were acting strangely at all events. A fter supper Sam Smith used to light his pipe, go over from McConnell's to the Britton building and disappear beneath it somewhere. Inquisitive persons, and given to talk. declared that by listening they had heard hammer-strokes on iron. 'A few darkly declared that some inâ€" fernal machine was being construct- ed that would free ilreland, and oth- ers that it was a contrivance to fil- ter the Scugog water. The other evening, however, the problr m was solved when by the help of block and tackle and voli- untt-vrs. a fine-steel gasoline yacht was handed up through the outside entrance of the collar on Ridout-st. and takvn down that street to the river. That was what kept the Sams busy and was responsible for the alleged hammering in the cellar ; for in the hull were 1,000 rivets. Thu other afternoon a few of Pro- prin-tnr Sam's friends bade him amt-(1r at his boathouse. He did so. and witnessed the Ceremony of christming his new craft. Among the hum-h of visitors was a former denizen of the coast cities, who talks the ('hinook as volubly as the sec- retary of the South Victoria Agriu cultural society does the What-is-it tongue. it was this Westerner who st-lc-rh-d the name "Lillooch" which means. so he says, “Running Water.” But he‘l’ name notwithstanding. she Was not christened in Waterâ€"she’ll get enough of thatâ€"but in a bottle of the regulation liquid, which her sponsors regretfully saw go to waste â€"lmt there are others (bottles) where that came from. Then on beâ€" half of the visitors, a fine pennant bearing the boat's name in silk, was flung to the breeze. Whereupon an‘ oration by the man who selected the, name was (luliw-red in Chinook and! a frock coat. ln (-hoicv Indianâ€"the! listeners were all hidianS-â€"thc ad- (lrvss set forth the merits of the Lil- loock and her owner in such moving fashion that recourse to refreshments was had immediately at. its close.

The separate particles transmit light freely, but the reflec- tions at their surfaces are so numerous that the resulting effect is white. Thus glass when crushed is a white powder and is opaque. but when it is put un- der water it once more becomes trans- parent, because the water fills up the interstices between the particles, and the reflections are destroyed. Salt and snow are also common examples of this condition. The Movement to Like That of Pitch Upon a Plane. The motion of glaciers has been scientifically defined as that ot a vis- cous mass, partly sliding upon its bed, partly sheeting upon itself under the influence of gravity. In other words, the motion resembles that of pitch poured upon a table, which spreads, not by the expansion of the bottom of the mass, but by the edges rolling over above the lower stratum, which is dragged by the table surface. It was argued against this that ice was a brittle substance, but Principal Forbes was able to show that glacier ice diflers from others in possessing a distinct granular structure and that the swing by imparting a certain amount of motion to each other, as in water, gave the whole plasflcifiy. The rate of motion varies with loco] conditions, but is sometimes ex- tremely slow. Thus the Theodul glacier ejected, in 1885, from its end two skel- etons. with fragments of clothing, and two medals, dated 1582. The Reason Why Foam Always Ap- pears White In Color. When water is violently agitated small bubbles of air are mixed up with it. and thus foam is formed, and its whiteness is due to the fact that when light passes from one medium to anâ€" other ot a difl'erent refractive index it Other high authorities attribute their motion to other natural forces, such as alter-nut. expansion and contraction. the Last Century. 'Some forms or spiritualism have had followers from remote antiquity. In the Levitical law we find the injunc- tion, “Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live,” and throughout Old Testament history there are frequent references to this subject, while demons, python- esses, sibyls, augurs and soothsayers have their places in the secular annals of mankind. In its modern form spiritualism dates only from the forty-eighth year of the last century, when, at the house of a farmer of Hydesville, in the state of New York, the spirit of a peddler who had been murdered there some five years previously was said to pro. duce certain unaccountable rappings and disturbances in the room occupied by little laughters of the house. ' An investigation by the neighbor- hood followed, and, to quote the words used by Farrar in his pamphlet on the subject, “It soon became evident that an organized attempt was being made by the denizens of the spirit world to establish a method of communication with mankind.” From that time spiritualism spread rapidly, and by the year 1871 the num- ber of its supporters was variously reckoned at from 8,000,000 to 11.- Date.

Rainsford of New York, formerly of St. Jnxncs' Cathedral, Toronto, tells an inter- esting story about Phillips Brooks. The story relates to a Church Con. gress in Boston in 1877, when Dr. Rainsford was down on the program to speak. "I went to the Music Hall about, 8," says Dr. Rainsford, “and sawan audience of quite 2,000 people, the place jammed and 250 clergyman and bishops on the platform. Cold shudders ran down my back. How- ever, I knew my subject or thought I did, and I was going to speak without notes, something I have nev- er done since. My turn came after Father Benson of Oxford. The whole place looked black to me. I got up, stammered and sputtered for five or six minutesâ€"my time was twenty- five minutesâ€"and sat down. 1 am not exaggerating in this) I did not say one clear sentence that Wnnld we do too much and think too lit- tle. There is nothing more splendid than energy and force applied to an object with enthusiasm, with an ardent purpose. There is also noth- ing so good as seasons of passive thought, of apparent idleness, of meditation free from the imp of res:â€" less action constantly nudging the elbow. . While being direct of purpose one should avoid being narrow. The main idea should be at the back at the head all the time, but the great- est elasticity of action in detail should be cultivated so long as it is not out of harmony with the general purpose of life. With all these things nothing is so valuable as self-reliance. I have seen this joined to extraordinary shyness and modesty. Shyness is not a. bad fault. It is more to be desired than a. per- sonal aggressiveness. The chief thing is to know what you want, and then to move steadily towards it, re- membering always to play the game fnirly, and realizing that you never get safe foothold on the ladder of life by pulling another man down. Action, without the watchful eye, the careful and observant mind, which sees the moment to strike and then promptly delivers the blow, as often as not mars chance and for- tune.
