% A Christian S< EXTERIOR OF MRS. EDDY'S H( CORI To Catch the Unruly Hog. Chasing hogs is exceedingly amusing when the chaser Is bent on pleasure only. When it becomes an every-day duty the funny feature disappears, and instead the air is generally l^den with expletives not suitable to polite society. The hog is an elusive beast. Being round and fat ?and also slippery ? the chaser is not afforded any point of vantage to obtain a firm hold. This is true with but one exception, and that is his tail. But here again the chaser is handicapped. Hogs' tails are so little and at the same time so frail that "|,v' Subdues the Hog. not infrequently the hog emerges from the chase minus . his tail. A i more sensible method is the use of! the implement illustrated herewith. ' The inventor, an Iowa man, claims that no difficulty is experienced in getting the noose in position. When ! once it is securely clamped in the hog's nose it is an easy matter to lead the animal to any place desired. ?Philadelphia Record. "Chevreul's Black," Which is Blacker Than Black Velvet. A simple experiment is one on ^ blackness. You know that no paint or any other substance in the world Is perfectly black, but there is a way to make a figure appear so that it will look blacker even than black velvet. Paint the .inside of a pasteboard box. black or cover it with dead black cloth. In the lid of the box make a hole; being careful not to make it larger than one-tenth of the surface ? H The Black Box. of the lid. If now you hold the box so that the light will not strike the hole directly and look through the hole into the box the hole will appear intensely black. Make the hole in the form of a design or an imp or a brownie, and even if you paint the lid black, when jtm look through the hole you will see the figure darker than the dark background. The black produced by this method is called "Chevreul's black," after the Frenchman who invented it. \ X. StarcJi Box Barn. This barn is just the thing for a rainy day.

New Work For Girls. Strenuous girls are finding a new and lucrative profession in teaching their own sex games and physical exercises in schools. At St. Bride's Institate there is a prosperous school, -with four or five teachers, where girls are given a two years' training in the work, and from It they go forth to earn from $400 to $1200 per annum. Thirty girls are at present going through the course'. More than twenty of their predecessors now certificated are at work, for . there is a steady demand for these young women. ' This training is no child's play. A girl who enters for the course has to be at work either in study of gymnasium for five hours every day of the term. Sixteen is the minimum age for entry, but most of the girls are eighteen when/they start. There are also games to be learned? : cricket, hockey, and basket-ball. Swimming and rescue work are i taught.?London Daily Mail. Mercury and Water. Get a number of glass tubes, varying in size from a quarter of an inch in diameter to the slim thermometer tube. Thrust them into water and I see the result as shown in the accompanying picture. The water will rise higher in the smaller tubes than I > j 11 """ ^ ' in the larger, and it will be higher at the sides of the tubes than in the middle. This is due to the pressure of the air on the surface of the water, and to what is known as capillary attraction, this last causing the water to rise in the sides of the tube. Now thrust the tubes into mercury, and an exactly opposite effect will be produced, as shown in the darker picture, for the mercury will have a lower level inside the tubes than outside, and as it has a tendency to slip away from the glass surface rather than tp cling to it there is no capillary attraction, and it falls downward ot +V>~ oiHoc nnrt ciirvpq nnward in the centre. Besides, it will rise higher in the larger tubes than in the smaller ones. A similar experiment may be made with two flat pieces of glass, placed together like a wedge, and held so by a broad rubber band, a piece of wood being placed at the top and the bottom of the open part, as shown in the illustration. Now dip this wedge into water, and you will find that the water will rise higher where the pieces of glass come together than at the open part, thus making a curved surface. Dip it into mercury and the curve will be reversed, the msrcury having a lower level where the pieces of glass come together.?New Vork Mail.

Erooklyn, N. Y.?Preaching at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church on the theme, "Personal Experience," the Rev. I. W. Henderson, pastor, took as his text Jno. 4:42: "Now we believe, not because of thy saying; for we have heard Him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world." He said: The final proof of the value of the Gospel to the individual lies in personal experience. The one test which, above all others, warrants a man to hail Jesus or to deny Him, is that of real knowledge directly acquired. No man is fit to flaunt Christianity as a farce who has not first observed the rules incidental to the living of the Christ life. He is the best advocate of the beauties of the Christian economy who has been loyal to his Lord's, commands. The consensus of Christians is the result of a common experience. We, as citizens of the kingdom of God, hold fast and together certain formulas of faith because we have, each for himself, as individuals, found valuable for us those working principles that we maintain. The church universal represents, in its fundamental dogmas, the opinions of myriad men who have, through the process of individual experience, reached a common ground of belief. The church catholic is divided upon secondary tenets according to the varieties of secondary Christian religious experience among men who assert allegiance to the central truths. In the broad sense, all of us who believe in and serve Christ, are Christians because we each recognize as a personal experience the truths which Christianity asserts to be fundamental. I am a Presbyterian and you are a Metjiodist, not because our ! views are different at the vitals, but : because our secondary experiences are unlike. The Christian Church is an aggregation of men who see Jesus with the same eye and who find in Him and in His power in their lives, bonds which link them fast. And any sect or denomination of Christians is but the congregation of some of the followers of Christ around a secondary tenet that is alive with their own peculiar doctrine, the result of an individual experience. At the bottom of it all the moving principle is personal experience. No man is a good Christian who has not had contact with Christ. No man can appreciate the genius of Presbyterianism save he who has had the experience common to all who hold that creed. It is a wise thing for a man who honestly differs from his fellow men; it is a sensible thing for a Christian who earnestly and reasonably disagrees with his fellow followers of Christ; to examine his conclusion?that is to say, bis creed, his dogma, his tenets, as you will?and determine whether or no th?y mirror correctly his personal experiences. But merely because a man finds himself at variance with the world of men about him is no sign that he has misinterpreted his experiences or is wrong. The prOphets were persecuted not because they 77ere wrong, but because they framed from the facts at hand conclusions that the Hebrews did not care to admit as tenable. Galileo got into trouble because Ptolemaists thought him crazy. The world was called flat until a dauntless soul declared it round. Luther would never have nailed the ninety-five theses to the door of the church at Wittenberg had he not been true to the truth as he saw it. And these men were, as are many men to-day, dead wrong in their beliefs as measured by the standards of the past. The results attained in all departments of knowledge are the outcome of the personal experience of individuals. A scientific law may be the declaration by a single man of truth proven out of the records of his personal experience, unaided and unverified by the experience of any other man?not infrequently at first it is. But this much is sure: that any law that has the assent of any society is based entirely upon the experiences of individual men who have perceived and been influenced by similar phenomena in their sep-: arate lives. All the knowledge that we have and all the laws that we accept at second hand are, at bottom, founded | upon the research and personal investigation and experience of some single man or some set of men. To say that we accept many.truths at second hand in no way injures our argument. All that we receive upon the assertions of other men is so taken because we have faith in the validity of their conclusions as being the direct result of their personal experiences. Repetition is never so inspiring or convincing as is the dictum of the flrBt source. And the only value that re-statement has is gained from the personal knowledge out of which it springs. By virtue of the multiplicity of the demands on our time we have to rest much of received truth upon the decisions of other men; but, in the providence of God, we may prove accepted truth if we will in the investigation and the delineation of our own personal exnorifirippq No man, ho-wever, Is entitled to affirm or to deny the value of a declared truth unless he has either met to the full the requirements of each condition or accepted the opinion of some original investigator who has fulfilled all incidental demands. How silly it would be for a man, untutored and unversed in the sciences, to set up his opinion, without deep and searching investigation, against the declarations of a Darwin, a Tyndall 1 or a Wallace. And on the other hand how unmanly it would be for a convinced student, who has, after arduous and painstaking effort, reached conclusions at variance with all the theory of all his masters before him, to flinch to state and to stand by the truth revealed to him Dy uoa. If, in the realm of science, experience shall he held to be the test of value OI upiuiuu, liuw uiutu uiuio necessary will it not be In the sphere of the religious life. It is easy for the scoffer to mock at the joys and the comforts of the Christian life. There is no difficulty for the man who really wants to find men who, after half-hearted service and misinterpreted, misunderstood experiences, pronounco tho life within Jesus a fraud. But is the cry of the mnlignrr of Christianity legitimate and -\ ' based? Has any man a right to parage a system of living o* which v&p/rm ttVTftE: feEV/rM RA.W^ENDER?k ? 1 ur. r. a Aiir? r?* ii:.i it.ic nc CY^n^uo uivinc** he has no experimental knowledge or of which his sole information is unscientific or fraudulent? Which Bhall be mightier, the testimony of the soul which having fulfilled the conditions is satisfied and sure, or the tale of woe of the charlatan who never met the measure? But if it is needful to be rich with, experience to deny the grace of t?e God blessed life, it is still more necessary to be saturated with a deep, Christly, spiritual, personal experience in order to convince others of its value and to enjoy what Beecher called "its privileges and prerogatives." The holy men of Israel knew the beauty of Jehovah and the glory o. a life near to Him because they enjoyed and practiced experimental communion with Him. JeBus proclaimed ?he majesty of the Father and the loveliness of a God-inspired career because He dwelt within the presence of His King. Paul paints the manifold blessings of the Chris tian life because he was a thoroughgoing Christ-man. The Samaritan woman received Jesus as the prophet for whom her heart longed because she had seen Him face to face. And her brethren from the city believed on Christ since she repeated to them her own short, graphic story concerning the truth she had both heard and' seen. There we have it, faith founded on fact and on fact repeated ?that is to say, upon personal experience. All preaching and all testimony which strikes home to the heart ia the story of the personal experiences. The first principle of a reaching talk is, to sum it up in a sentence, tell only the facts of life. And if in the telling of the Gospel story and in the application of the truth to the demands and the problems of to-day this element of dead certainty is of such immense importance, who shall deny its Insistent necessity in order* to the enjoyment and appropriation of the Gospel blessings by the individual. The Christ life must be a live, first-hand, personal experience or it is useless. Tou may take your food prepared or predigested as you will. You may take your knowledge of the scientific disciplines by rote. But no man can know Christ or enjoy a rich and enriching spiritual communion within Him who does not live his life within Jesus for himself. "Now we believe, not because of thy saying; for we have heard Him ourcoivoc ami Trnow that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world," said the men of Sychar. And this is, as in the nature of the case it must be, the testimony of every man who will enter or who has entered into the enjoyment of the "privileges (?nd the prerogatives" of the Christian life. No other method of entrance is so satisfactory. No other testimony from the citizens of the eternal kingdom is so influential and convincing. No other knowledge is so certificating to the intellect. No other evidence is so soul inspiring. Without a vision of the Christ no man may witness worthily for Him. Blessed with a personal experience we may lead the multitudes to God. 4 ^* J J J /v# n naiU A unrisuau wuu is ucvuiu ui a pcisonal experience with the presence and the personality of Jesus Christ is a paradox.

American printing methods are being developed by Increasing specialization In mechanism and by the use of individual electric motors for each piece of machinery. A typical modern plant is that of the New York Times. Here the pressroom is sixty feet below the street level, amply ventilated, and its Atmosphere kept dry by chemico-mechanical devices. The paper is printed on four octuple Hoe perfecting presses, having a total capacity of 144,000 six* i xeen-page papers noun;, wuu?u auu folded. Each press is driven by a 75-horse power main motor, assisted by two 10-horse power starting motors. One press can be used to print two separate editions, or either half of the press can be used at will. There are twelve separate sets of Kohler push buttons to control each press, and when a pressman presses the "safety" button the motor cannot be started again except through the button by which it was stopped. The motors are in pits beneath the presses. The operation and speed of a press are automatically recorded on a paper roll by means of an apparatus invented by Messrs. Winnacott and Palmer, two of the engineering staff of the newspaper. Ink is fed to the rollers by gravity from a storage tank. The New York Times uses about fifty 1400-pound rolls of paper daily. A new roll can be put on a press in twenty seconds. The newspapers on leaving the press are taken by an endless chain conveyor to the maiUne and distributine rooms above. The composing room is on the sixteenth floor, and contains thirty-eight linotypes, each driven by a quarter horse power motor. One feed wire supplies four motors. Gas burners heat steam for the matrix tables, and the completed matrices are dropped to the pressroom on a special lift, where they are cast on an autoplate machine driven by a 10-horse power motor. For communication between the building and the outside world there are 162 telegraph wires and 808 telephone instruments. All the clocks in the building are regulated every hour by the Western Union Telegraph Company. Electric current is supplied from the street mains from three separate service connections, and in the event of. emergencies there is an additional connection with the third rail of the New York Subway, which has a station immediately beneath a portion of the building. The bulk of the edition is distributed via the Subway. The building is lighted by 6200 ina 1A * candescent jumps, wiuper-ncwiu vapor lamps are used in the press and composing rooms. Cleaning is accomplished by compressed air. In winter low pressure steam is used for heating, otherwise there is no steam plant on the premises.?London Times. Bachelor Brusqueness. An old-time English barrister was John Williams, a sarcastic wit and a bachelor with an intense prejudice against marriage. His clerk one day asked him for a holiday to get married, and some months afterward, on entering his chambers, Williams found his dead body suspended from the door. He engaged another clerk and asked him if he was married. "No," the clerk replied; but thinking Williams would regard marriage as a guarantee of steadiness, he sdded, "Very well," understand-;" ors.elf, don't ?
