It is handier to smoke when they are writing, and ever so much cleaner. And then it gives them the true essence and favor of the tobacco. The most fastidious smokers among all natos and all classes of men agree that the tobacco grown on the Golden Tobacco Belt of North Carolina is the most delic ious and relined in the world. Lighter than Turkish. more fragrant than Havana, freer from nitrates and nicotine than any other, it is just what the connoisseur praises and the habitual smoker demands. The very choicest tobacco grown on this Belt is bought by Black. welrs Durham Tobacco Co.. and appears in their celebrated Bull Durham Smoking Tobacco. It is known the world over. Get the genuine.withBull trade-mark. then you will be sure of having abso lutely pure tobacco. Where did you get that nice fitting suit at ? it is perfect, Charles.

Will Carlisle had definitelv made up his mind to propose to Agusta Colton-'Agusta Ann' as her unso- e phisticated relations phrased it, in their everyday talk. P 'She is a diamond among glass a p)ebbles,' he declared with all a lov er's enthusiasm. 'Are yon qtqite stqre that she is u a diamond at ali?' dryly asked Dr, A Beitqn.a Mr, Carlisle had been spending o the summer at Groton Point, in a j6 dreamy desultory sort of way. iIe was one of those fortunate-young hx men whose career in life is already n made for them. An old uncle in the West Indies had bequeathed s him a fortune-a connoisseur cous- 0 in who came abruptly to his end in a a railway accident, had left him a house on Fifth avenue and a gal. I lery of paintings-and just as he was preparing to enjoy himself r thoroughly,a lysky cough developed s itself, the med ical man talked grim ly of impending consnptiQ1m and1 e he w;s ordered to the sea shore for the summ~ner. 'There is nothing the matter with I me, said he, imnpatiently. 1 'But there will be,' averred the learned disciple of Esculapius, 'ifi you dont check this thing in its very inception. Atlantic City, nowi or Newport or-' 'Nonseuse, said Carlisle, 'I dont c care for any of thos,e fashionable .ee. j sorts, if I'xin to lie br.nished aty whe;-e, lI bh'ose the place of exiles myself!

'1 mgy be very defiencxt in~ c mnoderra geogaphy, btut I mtjst say c that I never heard of Groton 'No, nor anybody else, said Will Carlisle, smiling. 'And that is the reason I am going there. It's a solitary fishing station on the Maine coast. There's absolutely nothi ng ( there but surf and sea.gulls !' And so Groton Point was select- t ed for Mr. Carlislas stqmer re si: e dexnce.

A queer quaint sort of a place, and yet Will liked it. There it was that Miss Colton threw her net over bia unsuspecting heart, one day, when she lost the five-dollar gold piece wherewith her mother had sent her to the store for a lot of carpet warp, seven yards of red flannel, and a box of bakings powder. She w*as so pretty and< pgpaxnd distracted, and her blue i aislin gown set off her blonde coin lexion ad burnished h1air so ex nisitelt-and Will ha-l not seen ny woman lut the fat landlady for week And they found the gold ieee. lying among some rocks h Lie sea-shore. where it must have ropped from Atugusta's )oeli-t hien she pulled out her handker hief to brush away the mosquitoes -which are troubiesc,me at ( roton 'oint. when the wind sets fromli a ertain direction-but Mr. Carlisle >st something more serious still i' heart 'A fishierlmaid of low eigree !' he ad quoted, laughinigl. when he o.nfesse.l all these things to his ollege chum. votiung 1)r.

Aogother thing~s he said: ha at this moment shot throughi and through by competing coimercial enterprises; and one of my reasons for asking your attention to this fact is that I believe that unless the Christian church makes haste to intro-duce rmissions into Africa the ground there will be trodden hard by the hoofs of avarice and burnt over by the fires of greed and fraud before our missionaries can reach the spot." With these eloquent words he closed his earnest plea for a more enthusiastic cndeavor to rescue the D)ark Continent: "I do this in the name of all the missionanecs now on African soil or bur~ied beneath it. I make this ap peal in the name of Livingstone himself. Oin the first dr.y of May, 1873, in Chitamnbo's village in llaa this great exp)lorer was alone in his hut in his last hour. lie rose and keelt at his bedside. and in the morning was found in thme posture of prayer, with life fled.

When I came to Brooklyn. thirty seven years ago, there were less than 50. 000 p:eople here. To-day there are nLor e than 790,000, and I Suppose heiore the five years' census is taken in Brooklyn the city will have very near a million in:habitants. It is the one city of the future on this con tinent. Manhattan is a bottle island-w hen it's f ull it's "uli: but ! ;rooklyn has all Long Iland te sprea out on. There are but five cities in all Europe that are equal in p;opulation to Brooklyn-London, Paris. Berlin. Vienna and St. Pe th,rshurg. Besides these, Brooklyn surpasses every city on the conti nent of Europe. We are giving a very close chase to New York it slft. We are growing faster thar Newi, York--a good deal faster thar New York--and for obvious rea. sons; and there is no measuring what will be the rapidity of its growth in the future. New York in I ; iss;ued 23,000 permits foi buildinr. l;ooklyn in 1S3 issued 2t;.088 The ditlerence is very great on our side. In that part of the ycar that is now elapsed--eighi or nine months--the permits issued are in still larger proportion of gair ever building in New York. We are surpass.ng New York in the nonb)er of factor;es and in the n portance of those that are building We are surpassing New York in al the inlustries t!at require the 'ter edge. having here a shore line 01 more than twenty-five miles. Now while there are in this great city nearly 80.000 people, there are only 265 churches, chapels and houses of worship, which gives one church to every 2,624 inhabitants In the outlying wards, with a popu lation of 450,000 people, there is church seating for only about 50 000. leaving about 400,000 peoph in those outlying w.trds who have no churches. no Sabbath, no moral teaching. And yet of the 25 churlhes that exist' in the city or the average t'ey are not half filed and w~here they' are not half file it is becau se there is nothing thler( that dIraws or that meets the wants of the great industrial p)opulations lyin arun about them. Undel these cirumstances what shall we do(1? 1 am not going to make a le: for church building, although I air glad( to see churches going up. Bui the churches are not going to edui cate our population. We have go to ha"ve a wanduering ministry; w have* got to, have ministers who g< from iJouse to hiouse, as the apostle did. and that p)reh to men iln thei: sorrows. in tiheir sicknesses.

GRE E1' .ALT LAKE. A gentlenau who has been lately siailing on the "Dead Sea of Amer ien." thus describes it; "Soon we were on our way toward the hazy w:-stern shore. As we passed along the se:i ,ulls circled around us or lioatal on the water, their white p!munge shining in the sunlight. I very now and then a hawk-moth would flit by or alight on the boat; dragon flies would stop long enough to gaze at us curiously and then spin off toward the distant islands. O:ceasionally a seventeen-year-old locust would hum past as if to mock at us for ever daring to believe that this is the -)ead Sea of A nric a.' As the bow plowed through the ater millions of small liptera (tlies) would ise from the water. where they were resting, and cover the bow of the boats till quarts of them could be collected. W' herever we went we observed the same thing. The water of the lake is their home. and they are as much at home and sitting on the water as a skipper is on ::n Eastern pond. In some places where it is calm these ilies darken the water for miles. Here (not on the oeach) they lay their ezgs; here they hatch, and here the iarv:' live by the million till ready for the pupa state, when they attach themselves to the seaweed (floating everywhere in the water) and remain till they emerge as perfect flies. The larva. doubtless prey upon the strange little shrimps that live in the water. There are infinite num. bers of these, as there is scarcely a place in the lake where a bucket of water can be dipped without taking up from twenty to 500 of them. It is strange that people should eall this a -dead sea,' for I though the number of species does not exceed ten or fifteen. there is iw" lake. fresh or salt in the world. that contains half as many living things as Great Salt Lake." IO1" BASE BALLS ARE M.ADE The first-class regulation base ball for this year is not different from that in use last year. It costs .91.50, and sells at wholesale at the rate of 915 a dozen. It weighs about five ounces,and when thrown on a board floor sounds like a young paving stone. It is just about as solid and as heavy as a urnip of the same size, and though it is perfectly round and smooth, and the stitches are almost even with the leather, it stings the on caloused hand of the catcher as if it were red hot or covered with orickers. Base balls are dear because they are made by hand, and they are made by hand because they must be wound very tightly, carefally and evenly. Tihe basis of each one is a little lump of Para rubber, round and weighing an ounce. Wound around this in every direc tion is worsted yarn. In some b)alls, after a thick jayer of y-arn is wound on, the ball is dipped in rubber, then more yarn is wound on then it is dipped again, and fiually yet more is wound on and then the cover is nited over it. One ball af fected by many professionals has a thin skin of concrete midway be tween the cover and the rubber. G;irls make all the balls. The pro ces is sonmething like that of mak jing certain mixed drinhs, wherein the bmrteuder puts in lemon to make them sour and sugar to make caled sweet. Players want what is caldadead ball, that is. one that won't bounce much. A stone will bounce more that a ball ought. So the rubber is put in to make it bounce just a little, and the yarn i swound tight and concrete is added to stop it from bouncing at all. Th us the happy medium is reached. Sometimes molded vul canized rubber is used. The best balls are covered with horse-skin because it is strong and tough. Many of these are sewed with catgut, but in damp weather the catgut loosens, and therefore at such times those balls are used which are stitched with flax. Base baIlls can be purchased for five, ten, twenty, twenty-five and fifty cents. Many of these are ma chine-made, They are stuffed with odds and ends of leather, wound up with cor d, pressed into shape, and coveredI with common leather.

Louis Pasteur. the celebrated -rench chemist. claims to have made a discovery of the most - ital importance-nothinr less in fact, than a complete cure, or rather an tidote. for hydrophobia. In an in terview with a F .r correspond ent M. Pasteur says: --Cauterization of the wound im mediately after the bite as is well known, has been more or less efTec tive. but from to day any-body bit ten by a mad dog has only to pre sent himself at the laboratory of the Ecole Normale and by inoculation I will make him complet:ly insuscep tible to the effects of hydrophobia, even if bitten subsequently by any number of mad dogs. '"I have been devoting the last four years to this subject. I found out. in the first place, that the cirts rubikgne loses its intensity by traus nission to certain anImals and in crease its intensity by transnis son to other animals. With the rabbit, for instance, the cbr"s rnye~ increases; with the monkey it decreases. My method was as tollows: I took the virus direct from the brain of a do: that had (lied from acute by drophobia. With this virus I noc ulated a monkey. The monkey died. w\VXENI\(: TIE I(')i-LATINO VIit . --Then with the virus-already weakened in intensity-taken from this monkey I inoculated a second monkey. Then with the virus taken from the second monkey I inocula ted a third monkey, and so on un til I obtained a virus so weak as to be almost harmless. Then with this altno..t harmless virus I inocula ted a rabbit, the virus being at once increased in intensity. .-ThetI with the virus from the first rabbit I inoculated a second rabbit. and there was another in crease ini the intensity of the virus. Th:en with the virus of the second rabbit I inoculated a t>ird rabbit. then a foulth. until the virus had regained its mnaximumn intensity. I obtained virus of different degrees of power. I thr:n took a dog and inoculated him. first with the weak est virus from that rabbit, then with the virus from the second rab bit and finally with the rabbit virus of maximum intensity. After a few days more I inoculated the dog with virus taken dlircCtly from the~ brain of a dog that h ad just died of acute madness. The (log upjonl which I had experimented p)roved completely insusceptible to hydro phtobil. Thte experiment was fre qutently rep)eated, always with the same sucessful result. --lBut my discovery does not end( here. I t>O)k two dogs and inocula them both with virus taken directly from a dog that had just died of acute hydrophobia. I let one of my two dogs thus iuoculated alone and he went mad antd died of acute hydrophobia. I subljected the see 0ond dog to my treatment. giving him the three rabbit inoculations, beginning with the weakest and endiug with the strongest. This second dog was e tmpletely ctured, or rather became completely insus cptible to hydrophobia." :M. Pasteur then went to a kennel and caressed a dog thtat had under gone thbis latter operation. Vyez l' said M. Paisteur. "comnme il est bien geti." Whoever gets bitten by a ma] dlog has only to submi~t to my three little inoculations and he neced not have the slightest fear of by droplobia."
