Tho centenary of John Wesley's death xrna
Celebrated with appropriate ceroinonies ?>y
Methodist churches generally thronghout
Europe and America, and tho life aud work
of the apostle of Methodism wero eulogised
by the ministers in their sermons.
Tn London, England, a statue erectod in
his honor was unvelloJ, in the presence of
a largo number of people, in front of the City
Road Chapel, tho headquarters of tho
Wesloyans. Tho Rev. Frederick William
Farrar, Archdeacon of Westminster, toolc
part in the ceremonies attending the unveiling
of the statue, and afterward, with Sir
Robert N. Fowler, one of the members of
Parliament for London City, addressed
a meeting in the City Road Chapel, extolling
the virtues of Wesley. Archdeacon
Farrar delivered a long and eloquent
eulogy of John Wesley, in tho course
of which he snid that he regretted, as a
Churchman, that the Church, 100 years ago,
bad not tho wisdom to ass" ^tlalo with the
mighty enthusiasm which *?? ? momentum
to the Wesleyan movement. It seeme<l,
aid tho Archdeacon, shocking and disgraceful
in Christians, l>ound by a common
Christianity, to treat each other with
mutual coldness. John Wesley himself, he
.... addod, set an example of splendid tolerance.
The Archdeacon, in conclusinn,reminded the
congregation of the wordm of Wiiijam Foao,
that the humble, meek, merciful and just are
all of one religion, and will so recognise one
another when in another world, with the
mask off.
In New York City a number of clergymen
connected with th? Methodist churches

LIFE. 1
Oar life, oar life U like a narrow raft
Afloat upon the hungry sea;
Hereon > but a little space.
And all men, eager for a place.
Do thrust each other in the sea; *
And each man, eager for a place,
Doee thrust his brother in the sea.
And so our life is wan with fears,
And so the sea is salt with tears.
Ah, well is thee, thou art asleep!
Ab, well is thee, thou art asleep!
Oar Ufa. our life is like a carious play, <
Where each man hideth from himself.
"Let us be open ns the day,"
One mask does to the other say.
When he would deeper hide himself.
"Let as be open as the day."
That he may better hide himself.
And so the world goes round and round^
Until our life with rest is crowned.
Ah, well is thee, thou art asleep!
Ab, well is thee, thou art asleep!

THE ROOMMATES
BV JOHN B. RAYMOND.
Henry Hadley and John Ashton hadL
roomed together for six months, but had]
never exchanged a word. There was no!
quarrel between them; they were not;
i deaf mutes; they wore normal, cvery-day)
young mcu, and one, at least, longed'
ardently to hear the other's voice. ,
It came about in this way'"Iladlcy was'
a reporter on the New?-Uerald% where he
had filled a certain round of dry-as-dust
assignments for years and was not muchi
liked by his associates. He had a tend-*
ency to drudge; he wore faint "muttonchop"
side-whiskers and turned up the
bottoms of his trousers when it rained.'
But he was really a capital fellow, and in
spite of his prosiac exterior ho had a
little romance of his own. He was engaged
to be married, and Alice Tyler
was a girl of whom any one might well
be proud. She was the niece of a friend
of Hadley's, and when he proposed to;
her, after a long, despairing courtship,'
he was astounded to find himself ac-<
cepted. It seemed incredible that such
a perfect creature could ever be his own,
but after ho had somewhat recovered
from his transports his practical nature*
asserted itself, and he began to retrench
his expenses In preparation for the event.
Thus it -was that he eventually answered
an advertisement for a room-mate.
It so happened that the other occupant
of the room was also a reporter, although
a very different stamp of man. John
Asfiton was a meteoric genius. Ho was
a waif from dead and gone Bohemia.
His forte was the strange, tho odd, and
the grotesque, and his startling and unlooked-for
strokes had gone far toward
making the Chronicle famous. In his il'jld
he was invaluable, and he had long since
killed his chance for promotion by meriting
it too much.
The Neict-IIerald, as everybody knows,
is published in the afternoon, while the
Chronicle is a morning daily, and Hadley,
who had made his arrangements
through the landlady, was disappointed,
when he awoke early on the tirst day in
j his new quarters, to find that his room'
vrtup-had let himself in sometime
1 '-durrty ilk night, was then asleep in the
1 ??r- alaove.opposite his own. He had J
\ much pleasure from \
'm nqL"acfrqfred^ but the pale, handsome j
faqyand 'slight form, relaxod in the languor,
uf. deep, sleep, prompted him to
dreHic ^s- quietly as possible and slip out
without awakening the other.
:It. turned out, to Hadley's infinite
chagrin, .and probably to Ashton's secret
amusement, that this was no mere acci
' drffit.' '"The former went to work earlv
in thcr morning and his duties ended
I kv)\enll"thc big presses threw out the first
''copy of the last edition, at about dusk.
,A?lyoii, on, the other hand, arose a little
. {lftcr nooq, lounged about until dark,and
: Jeftf his desk any time between one and
thrae o'clock at night. Consequently,
when he reached the room he invariably
j found Had ley asleep, and when he awoke
he was the only occupant. And rice

this fantastic relationship. Their
.offices were remote from one another.

day they never met.
I touch was the curious train of eventi
- which had carried them through one
summer and into an autumn that brought
to Hadlcy many a miserable heartache.
A shndow had somehow fallen across tho
honest fellow's love affair. It was hard*
t ly to be defined in terms; that was the
worst of i?*-it was so intangible; so dif.
ficult to say juBt what was wrong. There
was a change in Alice. She was silent;
she was distraught; her tears came and
went like April rain. Yet she protested
that nothing was amiss, and methii
well-meant questioning with an impatience
that surprised and frightened him;
for he did not know very much of women,
and her asseverations sounded to
bis ears liko confessions in disguise.
Above all, he felt a cumbersome unfitness
to cope with the situation. It was
like a plow-boy essaying to probe a sensitive
wound, and at Innaf.h he feared to
speak lest he should precipitate some un,
known crisis.
Thus it was, when at dusk one autumn
day he walked from the office to Alice's
home to pay one of his customary visits.
1 It was an indolent evening, suave with
the spell of Indiau summer, aud through
the dreamy haze that wrapped the city
l A?.an fl.o U. ~ C A fl! 1-^ #-?-A -
vibu iuc it iiin ui irnuic duuduvu mint an(i
harmonious, like n choir of giant insects
at the approach of night. He fell into a
vague reverie as he walked on, and when
he stopped mechanically before the house
lie did not ring at once, hut sat down
upon u littic bench just within the gato
and masked by lilac-hushes.
iThc narcotic calm of the scene and
hour had lulled him into serenity, and
night fell unmarked, until, at length, a
familiar voice broke in upon his medita?
lie recognized it on the instant
aa Alice a, bin" tc miwith
dpeper tppes that were unfamiliar to him.
Although tf6f iSePfls had yet det&ohed
themselves frdm the tangle of sound, it
seemed to him that one voice was urging
and one remonstrating. Presently they
came nearer and stooped bv the orate.
"Oh, I cannot! I cannot 1" some one
cried. It was Alice's voice, and Although
there waa not a jot of the spy in Hadley's
nature, something in tho intonation held
him spell-bound.
"But why not?"' said the other voice,
n melodious bAritonc?low, persuasive, \
thrilling. "But why not? It was a con- j
ditional promise; the conditions linvo '
changed and that is "
"No; it is not that,," broke in the
girl. Bho was speaking quietly, tut a
r # #
" ' -V
pathethic little quaver ran through her
words. "Oh, can't you understand! He
is honeet and true, and I could not break
his heart!"
A moisture sprang on Hadley's forehead
r.nd very slowly he opened and
closed his hands. There was pause, and
then the pleasant baritone again:
'"Are there no rivers in Damascus?
What of my heart, Alice?" Had ley
heard ua more. Something seemed to
sullocato him. His breath went no
further than than his throat, and the
dusky web of lilac-branches danced in
black and shapeless phantasmagoria be-'
fore his eves. He was dimly conscious
or a patter of feet, a wave of perrume,)
and gush of yellow light as the hall doorclashed
open aud shut, and then he knew
he was nlono again.
Alone 1 A hideous sense of loss, and
bitter,hopeless desolation, such aa he had
never felt and never dreamed of, overwhelmed
him. He did not think; he did
not dare to think. He staggered to his
feet, opened the gate and passed out.
To run away, to elude this thing as if
it was some sentient, palpable pursuer,
t was the first impulse that possessed him,
and he hurried on, blindly, stumblingly,
he cared not whore. How for he walked
thus he had no means of knowing, but
when be stopped it was on a thronging
thoroughfare, before the window a great
emporium, aquivcr with electric lights.
Ho drew a long breath and pulled himself
together. An illuminated dial that
punctured tho gloom of tlio upper
marked after midnight, and a faintness
began to assail him, a deadly reaction
that turned his knees to water. The
careless, alien crowd jarred on him, the
barbaric s|?cndor of the windows smote
itnrtn hin hrnin : be -wanted to bfl alone.
and presently he saw the open doorway
of a cafe and entered.
A lew people sat at tables here and
there,: affd. ion one hand were the curtained
doorways of a row of little rooms
or stalls. He walked instinctively
to want one of these and drew the
drapery asido. A man within, who was
musing, apparently, over a bottle and a
half-eaten meal, turned at the sound,
and the room-mates looked one another
in the face.
Ashton was the first to recover himself,
and sprang up with outstretched
hand.
"Why, my dear fellow 1" he exclaimed,
"Am I indebted to insomnia for this
pleasure?"
Uadley took his hand absently, but
did net at once reply. What was there
about that voice, with its plausible, vibrating
timbre, that thrilled him so?
"I have been a little troubled," ho
said, hesitatingly, "and tried to?walk
it off."
"Hal And camo in here, I dare say,
to drown it in drink, as the proverb
goes. My word for it, trouble is the
thirstiest thing on earth. I tried to
drown a small sorrow in drink onco, and
when I was under the table there was the
sorrow, sober as a judge. But I'll tell
you something, Hadley, it won't stand
feeding. Tho proper thing to drown
sorrow in is mutton chops and fried potatoes.
Suppose wo put it to the touch.
Waiter!"
"Hold!" 6aid Hadloy, who burned to
stop this badinage, "I am not hungry?
not in the least. Let mo sit down a mo[
meat and think."
at the other with a sudden, haggard fn|
tentness. A thought had just occurred
J to his distracted mind. Why was not
I this man, so bright, so versatile, so self!
contained, so en rapport with the great
i world and its usages?why was not he ths
i very man of all men to give him counsel
in +Viia nwwlirampnt. ?
! "Ashton," he said, "I am in distress,
i Will you give me your advice!"
! Ashton smiled grimly.
"You have come to a good shop lor
, advice." he said. "My whole life is
j more or less a warning. However, if I
\ can be of any service to you, blaze away.
Out with it, my boy 1"
But Hadley did not tind the story so
easy to tell.
< "I am engaged to be married," ha
] said, at length.
"Ho! ho!" cried Ashton. "I forsee
a stern parent with a prejudice against
literary characters." Then something
me," he said, gently. "What is this
trouble of yours? You need not mention
the lady's name, of course. Make
it a hypothetical case."
' "Oh, no!" said Hadley, "I can con,
fide in you. She is the best girl in the
world. Her name i9 Alice Tyler."
| Ashton was leaning over the table
I toying with a glass, but at the words he
rose involuntarily and fixed his eyes upon
| the other with strange and challenging
regard. Hadley paused for a moment
1 with a dim and troubled conscience that
he had touched some hidden spring;
I but only for* moment, and then, slowly
! and incoherently, ho told his story.
Ashton sank back as he proceeded and
heard him in silence to the end.
"Do you know this man?" he asked,
when it was done.
"No," replied Iladley, gloomily.
"What docs it matter who he is?"
in thought.
"Hadley," he demanded, suddenly,
"do you really intend to marry this girll

"Yes," said Iladley, rather surprised;

"I think so," said Hadley. "When
had I best go?"
"Go to-morrow. You will come back

you."
Hadley reflected a moment.
"I will take your advice," he said.

One of incidents of a hard and

fish and eels in small ponds where no
thoughtful person has broken holes in
the loe to permit the aeration of the
water which is necessary for the continuance
of fish life. When ponds are thus
hermetically sealed eels appear to suffer
more than asy other fish. On a hole be- !
ing broken they come to the surface in a

Curative Vn af Charcoal.
The Boston Journal of Oommeroo dis?
courses thus on the uses of charcoal:
e Besides being valuable as fuel, it has
_ other uses which make it one of the
' most serviceable ot articles. When laid
0 flat, while cold, on a bum, ltcauees the
it pain to abate; by leaving it on for ao
hour, the burn seems almost healed
when the wound is superficial. Tainted
i meat surrounded with it is sweetened.
Strewn over heaps of decomposed pelts
or over dead animals, charcoal prevents
H unpleasant odors. Vo?l Wm is ytBsd
h by it. It is a great disinfectant, and
\ sweetens offensive air if placed in thai/
low trays around apartments. It is so
V very porous that it absorbs and condenses
| gases rapidly. One cubic inch of fresh
' charcoal will absorb nearly one hundred
* inches of gaseous ammonia. Charcoal
t forms an excellent poultice for malignant
g wounds and sores. In cases of what is
t called proud flosh it is invaluable. It gives
* no disagreoable odor, corrodes no metal,
f hurts no texture, injures no color, is a
, simple and safe sweetener and disinfoc'
tant. A teaspoonful of charcoal in half
a glass of. water often relieves sick head1
ache. It absorbs the gases and relieves
i the distended stomach, pressing against
. the nerves which extend from the atomI
ach to tho head.

A Bali of laaaa.
The sudden appearance upon the
ground of a considerable supply of an
t pie of Asiatic Turkey ooi "
It came during a heavy fall of rain between
Merdin and Diarbekir, and oovered
a circular area some six or eight miles in
, circumference. Some of it wa* gathered
I up and made into bread, whioh was ol
good taste and very digestible. Bpeclf
mens of the substance have since been
submitted to botanists, who find that it is
in form of email grains, yellow outside
and white and mealy inside, and that it
is a lichen known to occur in some of the
arid reglbns of Western Asia. It is supposed
that tho grains were drawn up in
a water spout and transported by the
I wind at a considerable height in the atmosphere.
A French traveler has reported
that a similar fall of this lichen
occurred in many parts of Persia in 1828,
when it coverod the ground to the depth <
I of nearly an inch, and was eaten by ani)
male and collected by the inhabitants.
