Yellow Fever.
While tills country was contemplating the
filth that made yellow lever possible In Cuba,
the dreaded disease suddenly and unexpectedly
came to the "Soldiers Home," near
Norfolk, Va. We believe some four thousand
union soldiers are quartered there, aDd with
thirty cases of yellow fever among them,
there must be at least a feeling of discomfort.
The veterans are those whom the government
has undertaken to care for, and it would be a
pity for an epidemic to get among men wbo
are so well provided lor, and wbo have no
cares on tbelr minds as to wordly affairs.
When a man is freed from anxiety about the
affaire of tbln world, it is lamentable for him
to be scared to deatb by tbe presence of yellow
fever. Nine have already died of the
fever, and tha remaining 3,991 are scared
early to death.

PECULIAR ENGLISH SPELLING.
if out Difficult of All Syntema to Ao- i
qnirc Except the Chlnene. I
English spelling is the most unsystem- 8
itic and therefore the most difficult of all 9
!y6tems to acquire, except the Chinese. ;
rhe French has not a complete alphabet "
x> represent all its sounds in a simple and J
systematic manner, but the French use 1
;he incomplete and defective Roman al- r
phabet much more consistently than we.
the object of -writing is to convey thought, f
A.n ideal system would allow of the con a
reyano* or thought with the least expendl- 8
lure of energy on the part of both writer r
ind reader. J
The sounds of the spoken language J
ihould be represented by the simplest, r
nost completo and most logical system, c
Chere are in English 40 distinct sounds; a
10 distinct letters are needed to represent
hem. With such a system the intermina- t
>le difficulty of learning to spell would t
lisappear, the time spent in printing and e
vriting unnecessary letters would be saved c
tnd the learning of the language by chil- a
Iren and foreigners would be greatly fa- t
:ilitated. There is no valid objection to t
>honetic SDelline except the difficulty of s
ntroduclng it. The etymological objeo- t
ion is unworthy of serious consideration, a
The etymology, for example, of "6oph- i
sm" (which, by the way, does not import t
k wise saying) resides in the real word, v
105 in its spelling. Any one who knows d
he history of the word would associate v
hat history with it, however it might be a
pelled. The Philological association fa- r
ors phonetio spelling. It is, of course, v
mpossible to make so radical a change at
>nce, but it does not follow that the bene- g
Its of phonetic spelling, the metric system g
r any other great improvement will come 8,
0 us in the surest and best way by simply n
savincr the matter to chance. There is a ?
endency to shorten spelling, bnt the bene- ~
its to be derived from improvement are v
o great that definite action should be
aken to secure them early and to make r(
he changes in the way that will be most s,
leneflcial. Changes for better and for ^
rorso will continue to come by chance as j
hey have come in the past, but chance

Good Advice to Girl*.
I wish I could say to all young girls
n city or country, beware of strangers
!sever speak, especially when travlinj
ilone, 10 strangers, unless what thej
iay ia said distinctly enough to b<
leard by all persons sitting there
rhe low voice of strangers speaking t(
rouug women or eirls to whom thej
iave not been introduced should be
egarded with suspicion.
Another thine. Have no secrets
rom your parents. Danger, if noi
ictual harm, begins with secrecy. B(
is open as the day. Your father and
nother are certainly your best friends
f you sometimes think they are not
'ou are probably wrong, but even ii
ight while you are young it would be
nuch safer for you to have all youi
.Lvjuaiu lautco uuuci nuuu.
Sometimes strangers endeavor to en>
rap young girls by advertising lhal
hey would like to begin a correspond'
nee. This Is the most common
neans of leading girls astray. Tht
wful results ot answering such adverisements
as they have been brougbl
o my knowledge by lettter and per
onal accounts, and through reformaory
and other institutions, would
rouse the American people to such
ndignation against the newspapers
hat admit such decoy letters, that the
wretches that edit them would be
triven from decent society. Nevei
mte a letter to a stranger, nor one tc
, friend that would disgrace you if il
pnnhpri nfhftr lunula t.h?n fhnao f<?i
rhich it is intended.
In almost every school there is some
irl bad enough to be in a reformatory,
ihe may be bright and pleasant, but
a;s wicked things, and there are
aany who are weak ; so that an innoent
girl may be greatly injured by
ome schoolmate. The moment a
/ord is said that you would be ashamd
to have your father or mother hear
enounce the society of the one who
ays it. You would be afraid to go
ato a room with a girl that had ecarit
fever. It would be better to have
our body contract such a disease as
hat than to have your soul poisoned.

"My mother never pr.olds," said
lharlie." "She'll sa.V, Well I guess
ov've had a tumble: did you hurt
oureelf, dear?"
Joe looked in open-mouthed amazeient
at his friend, and said, slowly,
Do you mean that she7'1 really think
bout you first, before she talks about
ae mud and the hole?" To which
iharlie rather indignantly replied:
Of course, I do. My mother knows
wouldn't tear my clothes and roll in
Lie mud on purpose. You want to
;inember that my mother and I are
lore than just related to each other?
re're real friends."
How many boys can say that? If
ours cannot, be sure there is a grave
listake somewhere. It is true that a
lother must guide, control, advise, or
jmmand, as the occasion requires;
ut to degenerate into either a servant
r an officer is to abuse God-given oportunities.
A problem worthy of the careful,
rayerful study of every mother is,
fow can I be "real friends" with my

The Love of Trntb.
The importance of truth and of the
owledge of truth to all men was undowd
iu auy practical way to beathlism,
and may be considered as due
wentially to Christianity. Chrisanity
requires not merely truthfuless,
but love of truth. The divine
on of man represented His mission to
b very principally to bear witness to
le truth; and that question which
ie highest civilization of antiquity
id not care to have answered. He
as made through His Spirit a perpetal
aspiration of His discinles. Chrisanity,
in fact, has added many new
irdinal virtues to the old pagau ones,
ad among them is thi*, ueither the
ist nor the least of all, the desire of
loral progress. To seek truth and as
is found to live by it and to impart
to others, to cherisn true personal
jnviciioDs concerning human and
ivine relationships, and to diffuse
iem, in every way to testify to the
uth which we live by?this is a new
irtli of Christianity.
Christianity, it is true, does not di?ctly
denounce some social evils, and
does not directly define some social
irhts; nor does it furnish new instrulents,
nor found new institutions for
salizing its aims ; but, notwithstandig,
it ever has been, and ever will be,
idirectly the most powerful adversary
f such evils, aud advocate of such
ghts.
Slngnlnr Lives.
If one professes to be a follower of
hrist, and then lives just as wordly
?ople do, the light in him is bidden,
o lesson needs to be spoken into
le ears of men to-day more earnes ly,
lore vehemently than that the
isciples of Christ must come
jt and be separate. "Ye are
Dt of the world," cries the
[aster ; "I have chosen you out of the
orld." The tendency of the day is to
literate the lines of separation beveen
the church and the world. If
iere is no difference between the
orld and the church, why shall we
>ntinue to call men into the church ?
r Christians live just as the world's
?op!e do, why are tbey Christians?
/hat is the light that shines in them,
that shines out from them to give
pbt to others?
When Christ lighted us be did not
ant ub to keep our new life concealed
1 the habits and customs and ways of
le world. He wanted us to hold up
le burning torch of a consistent,
oly. and worthy Christian confession,
> that all men may see in us that
hich was not there before. "If we
ien be risen with Christ, seek those
lings which are above, where Christ
tteth."

\ MONTANA'S PUZZLING AND CONTRA5
DICTORY WELL.
)
T In the Simmer Its Water Freeiei
? and In the Winter the Ice Melts
and the Water Becomes Warn*?A
i MyKterlons Current of Air.
t
j Seven miles to tbo north and a little to
| the east of the Cheyenno agency in Custer
. county, Mon., is a well filled with ice that
, exoites much curiosity among the ranchers
f and cattlemen of that section. Every cow
5 boy who visits the well has much to tell
and invariably advances his own explanation.
^ Many Ingenious theories are given
. which tend to indicate that mankind of
t all degrees of scientific knowledge pnt
5 forth an effort to find the origin of things.
. However, they all agree that the ice forms
; in the well during the summer and that
. it actually thaws during the winter. This
. apparent contradiction of the natural laws
I that govern the outside world has carried
! the fame of this wfell for miles around and
, people have traveled great distances to
, witness the formation of icicles during the
( hot weather of July.
This well is within a few hundred feet
| of the summit of Little Wolf mountains,
. on the north slope, at the very beginning
of Greenleaf creek, which empties Into
Rosebud eight miles from where the Rosebud
joins the Yellowstone river. This
portion of the mountain is covered with ft
growth of tall pines.
Fourteen years ago three men prospecting
for silver, mistaking certain colors In
the rocks, began sinking a shaft. At 15
feet it was disagreeably cold, at 30 feet
the cold had Increased so rapidly that they
were thoroughly frightened. They could
feel currents of cold air rushing up from
the crevices in the rock. They Imagined
they were digging into some mysterious
underground cavern. They had heard Just
enough of wonderful adventures of dig1
ging into caves and underground lakes,
and being alone in this wilderness, whew
the very stillness permitted the ears to
hear and the mind to imagine all manner
of grewsome powers hid beneath the rook,
, bo thoroughly filled them with fear of im
pending danger that they abandoned the
work which has since gained such renown.
The summits of Little "Wolf mountains
ore covered with scoria, which has all the
, appearance and texture of a good grade of
tiling. It is usually red, but varies in color
through all the shades down to black.
These varying colors give the beautiful
tints to the thousands of buttes throughout
the bad lands. In comparatively recent
geological times vast beds of Ignite
ooal were formed over the eastern half of
Montana, extending into western Dakota,
the burning of these beds of coal was the
beginning of the bad land formation. The
fine deposits of clay above the coal were
burned as brick are burned In a kiln and
formed the scoria. Where the heat was
greater and rock and sand were present it
melted and mixed with the coal and ooal
?sh, forming large cinderlike rocka, which
we sometimes mistaken for lava. As the
coal burned out from beneath the day,
now baked Into scoria and melted into cinders,
it broke into small divisions and fell
promiscuously down into the pits thus
formed. Volcanic ash is found scattered
over the Little Wolf mountains and the
eastern portion of Montana. It must have
drifted with the wind from powerful eruptions
in the Rocky mountains, as there are
no indications of any volcanic action in
the vicinity of the ice well. The Little
Wolf mountains are merely a rough range
of buttes apparently of the same origin as
all the bad land buttes. Their summits,
towering above all the other buttes, have
given them the name of mountains, but
they are only of slightly over 4,000 feet altitude.
If ice were to be put into the well
during the winter, it would keep through*
out the summer nearly as well as if stored
away in ordinary icehouses. By chanoe nature
has formed almost the identical conditions
that man has made use of to preserve
ice throughout the hot weather. The
shaft is the cavity in which to store tha
ioe. The volcanic ash, filling into the open
space between the loosely piled rook, serve*
the purpose of sawdust in keeping out the
warm drafts of air. The altitude and the
north slope are favorable to the preservation
of the ice. Tall, denso forest prevents
the heating of the surface rock by the direct
rays of the sun. The rooks are too
porous for the water to soak up, so to
speak, from beneath. The facts are that in
many places near the tops of the buttes,
on the sides where the rocks have fallen
loosely together, they are perfectly dry for
many feet below the surface, being molafcened
by the winter snow and rain aa it
?nti ^niirn >> Vltyttq
ixxaj lOU OUU iUII UVTTU UVAM MWVTVf
During the winter the well li nearly
filled with enow. Enough water from the
early spring rains finds its way through
between the rocks to mix with the snow
and freeze into one Bolid mass of ioe. The
ice in the well is formed by the cold of
the winter season, but does not begin to
form sometimes till the winter Is half
gone.
In turn, it is melted by the heat of the
summer, but does not begin to melt until
fha miTTimor 1a half cwpir Tn thn mrlv
part of the glimmer it is still freezing in
the-well, and during the first half of the
winter it is still melting. The well aoti
as a refrigerator. It receives the heat
slowly and then gives it off just as slowly.
If the earth received and gave off heat
readily, the hottest weather would be In
June and the coldest in December?In
fact, the seasons follow nearly a month
behind the sun.
It is a fact that if on a hot day you walk
rapidly into the cave to where the ioe is it
feels as though a strong current of cold
air were blowing against your face. The
sensation is so decidedly real that it re
quires carer ill demonstration to prove to
the contrary, and even then it almost
seems as though the demonstration has
been a mistake. It can be easily tested by
using smoke, or better still, a rather
heavy colored glass. Again, if one should
stand without the entrance to the cavt on
a very warm day near enough to feel any
draft that may be stirring, none can be
felt coming from the wave. If one should
stand directly above the Ice well on a hot,
Btill day, even putting the face down to
the very opening Into the well, no upward
draft of cool air can be fek, but go down
into the well and one would state positively
that there was an upward draft of extremelv
cold air.?Boston Advertiser.
Effect of Water on Teeth.
Herr Rese has collected statistics in Bavaria
and Herr Foerberg in Sweden which
tend to prove that the water we drink has
an Important influence on the teeth. Carle*,
or decay in teeth, is less common where
the water is ''hard" owing to the presenoe
of chalk and magnesium salts. The harder
the water the better the teeth. Prob1
ably the presence of lime in the water
| benefits the bones in general.
The mercy of God is without end or
limit, but a man may sin away his capacity
to profit by it.
Boasting and undue depreciation are
often used for the same purpose?to
direct attention to self.
However the world may look at the
matter, it is nevertheless true that in
God's sight goodness is the only true
greatness.
The man who starts out in life determined
to keep the ten command'
meats will soon find out that theii
maker is God.

Work and Hope. ^
Yea, work and hope. The outlook
may be dark, the times may be threat- .
ening; but while God lives it cannot
but be well with the hopeful, believ
ing, trustful well-door." True, times f
and things might be better; they *
might be worse, also. Despairing
never changes anything for the better,
but hopeful working does. Look .
upon the bright side. If you do not 1
see it, hunt for it. Bring a flower \
when you come home from your toil i
and hand it, with a smile, to your j
wife, your mother, your sister, or your ^
daughter. It will cheer them, and i
make them feel that life is worth living
; then in return they will smile
upon and cheer you. Fill your home
with loving smiles, kind words, helpful
deeds, and then hope will well up
in your soul. There is love all about
us, if we will but make ourselves
lovable; there is plenty of appreciation
near by, if we will but do something
worthy of appreciation. The
world is not going to smash, and we
are not going to be cast out to die of
starvation if we but do as well as we
may. Therefore, work and hope.

Cheerfulness and sweetness of disposition
are often as great a force in ;
trying situations as nheer intellectual
ability. Tbe power of restraining
one's temper under provocation, of '
looking on the bright side of things in
discouraging circumstances, and of not ]
construing a difference of opinion iuto i
a personal matter, is one of those
choice attainments whose winsome- '

Do not be too much discouraged be- j
cause you cannot stumble upon that
sweet grace, content. It is not reached
by luck nor inherited as a legacy.
