It was forbid den to speak to him, but the czar some thues forgot that a subject could not obey the prohibition if the emperor addressed him. Once the czar met in a park the tenor singer of the Italian opera and exchanged a few words with him. The moment the czar was out of sight the police arrested the tenor. That even ing the czar attended the opera, where, after a long delay, the manager an nounced that the tenor could not be found. Nicholas guessed what had happened and sent an aid-de-camp to release the singer. A few days after the czar again met the tenor and began with an apology: "I was very sorry" "May I implore your majesty," the Italian exclaimed, "not to speak to me? Your majesty will compromise me with the Dolice." Saved by Dynamite. Sometimes a flaming city is saved by dynamiting a space that the fire can't cross. Sometimes a cough hangs on so long you feel as if nothing but dynamite would cure it. Z. T. Gray, of Calhoun. Ga., writes: " My wife had a very fig gravated cough, which kept her awake nights. Two physicians could not help her, so she took Dr. King's New Discov ery for.Consumption, Coughs and Colds, which eased her cough, gave her sleep, and finally cured her."

Personally I should say, writes F. F. Montague in the London Saturday Review, that Shakespeare was a ba sleeper. The well known lines in 'lenry IV." suggest the passionate longing for sleep which only those who have experienced the long drawn misery of a "white night" can feel. Again, what is more suggestive of a lie awake night in London in August than o comfort killing night, image of hen! or o hateful, vaporous and foggy night! In "The Rape of Lucrece." Or, again, take the twenty-seventh sonnet: Weary with toil. I haste me to my bed. The dear repose for limbs with trave! tired. But then begins a journey in my head To work my mind when body's work's expired. This seems to me the true wail of the insomnolent, and the sonnets are suppQsed to be autobiographical, I be lieve.

Near the village of Monterey. Mass., in the heart of the Berkshires, on a knoll peculiarly well fashioned by na ture for its uses, is a burying ground of the Revolutionary period which pcs s~esses more than ordinary interest by reason of its weil preserved headstones. These headstones were cut from a na tive stone which has endured the ele mnents so well for more than a hun dred years that the inscriptions are now almost as easily read as they wee when the stones were set in position. A. strilling peculiarity is found In .the carvings on the headstones, apparent Iy. all the work of one sculptor, who had a specialtyin the creation of cross eyed angels. flmost every one of the old headstones is ornamenfed .at the top with the head of an angel, and each angel face is unmistakably and -painfully cross eyed. This characteris tic has led some guests near the bury izng ground te call It the "cemetery of cross eyed angels."-New York Trib uine. Every Ounce You Eat.

"The natives of the north woods have more 'appetizing ways to cook fsi than any other class of cooks In the 'world, I believe," said a Tomah man. "The universal favorite, llo2wever, seems to be the clay method. The fish is wrapped in the clay without having so much as a scale runiled by the cleaning knife. He Is not dressed, and the only seasoning Is a -pinch of salt placed in the mouth. When the fish is done up In the clay the package Is placed in the embers of the campfire to bake. When it is done the clay is cracked open, and the scales of the fsh are found to be sticking in the clay, and' the head is then broken off. The delicate flavor of a .fsh cooked in this way cannot be described. Some of the cooks have a habit df' cutting a long gash along each side of the dorsal fn and inserting a slice of fat bacon. This adds greatly to the flavor of the fsh."-Milwaukee Sentinel.

The Word "London," What is the derivation of the word "London ?" The usually accepted one is the Celtic "Llyn-Din," or lake city, referring to the historical fact that theI city was built on a river that over-I lowed at full tide and half surrounded1 it Other philologists have derived It from "llawn" (full) and "dyn" (man). others again from "ion" (a plain) and "dun" (a hill). But the derivation Lun Den, or "grove city," seems more prob able than most of these. The name occurs In wooded parts of Scandinavia to this day.

THE SLU.AY SCHLOUL LESSON X, FOURTH QUARTER, INTER NATIONAL SERIES, DEC. 3. Text of the Lessol, Neh. iv. 7-20. Memory Verses, 1.9. 24-Golden Text, Matt. xxvi. 41-Comnientary Pre pared by Rev. D. M. Stearn. [Copyright. lf05. by American Priss Association.] The life of Nehediiali illustrated *he meaning of his name, "The Comfort of Jehovah," for in the midst of all his ditficulties and discouragements-and they were very many-he did find his joy and strength in the ford. Having returned to Jerusalem, accompanied by captains of the armby and horsemen and with authority to obtain what was necessary to rebuild the wall of the city, he spent three days quietly Inves tigating before he told the rulers of the Jews or the priests what he had come for. It is wise as a rule not to talk to others about your affairs, but it is always safe to consult Him who sends you about everything and then do whatever He says (Prov. iii, 5, 6; John ii, 5). It Is instructive to n6te Nehemiah journeying with an escort and Ezra without one, and God was with each of them. In the New Testa ment story Barnabos sold his property and put the imouey in the treasury, while his sister Mary kept hers and inade It a house of prayer. We must not follow others, however wise and good their ways may be, but follow "Jesus only." Our hand In His and our whole being at ills disposal, we should say, as Nchemiiah did: "The God of heaven, He will prosper us." "Our God shall fight for us" (ii, 20; iv, 20). The adversary is always grieved when any one becomes specially in earnest in the Lord's work, and he will do his utmost to hinder, tut there pust hn neither fear nor compromise on the part of the servants of God. All that is required of us are a mind to work and a readiness for any manner of service, and then God will surely ac complish His pleasure, Observe that those who built this wall were gold smiths, merchants, apothecaries, wom en, etc. (iii, 8, 12, 32), most unlikely people to build a stone wall, but be cause they had a mind to work and God was with them they prospered, and the work was finished in spite of all their enemies, and God was glori fied. Because the work was done by those who naturally had no talent for such work their enemies had to con fess tliat the work was wrought of God (vi, 15, 10). We must never forget that there are always enemies seeking to injure us and to hinder the' work-in fact, a great adversary seeking to destroy us and we must ever watch and pray as i4 these luilders (74A). See Jas. iv, 7; I Pet. v, 8, 0; Eph. vi, 10,18; M\ark xiii, 33-37. When there are weak and discouraged ones among the Lord's own whose motto seems to be, "We are not able" (10), matters are Ntorse than if there were only enemies with out. Such were the ten spies because of whom all Israel became .discour aged and were kept in the wilderness many years (Num. xiii, 31-33). Our motto should always be, "Our God is able" (Dan. 111. 17). or, as In verse 14 of our lesson, "Be not ye afraid; rememn ber the Lord." God will always bring to naught the counsel of the adversary (verse 15), but His own counsel standeth forever, the thoughts of His heart to all genera tions (Ps. xxxiii, 10, 11). 'See also Isa. vii, 9, 10, concerning His counsel and the breaking in pieces of the adver sary, and take comfort from Isa. xli, 12, 13. "They that war against thee shall be as nothing and as a thing of naught, for I, the Lord thy God, will hold thy right hand, saying, Fear not; I will help thee." The words "every one unto his work"! (verse 15) make us think of the words of our Lord in Mark xii, 34, "To every man his wor'k," and I Cor. xii, 11, "To every mwn sever'ally as He will," for, we are taught in Eph. 1i, 10, that all good works of all be lievers are prepared beforehand for us to walk in, and also that "it is God who woireth in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure," and that apart from Him we can do nothing (Phil. i1, 13; John xv, 5). From the fact that the wall began and ended at the sheep gate (iii, 1, 32) we gather the suggestion that whatever work Is not begun, continued and ended in and by Him who was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and done by those who are redeemed with His precious blood, will not count. From chapter lii, 10, 27, 29, we learn that we are to do the work that is nearest to us, however lowly it may be, "every one over against his house," or as elsewhere, "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do," "For any manner of service, wholly at His commandment" (Eccl. ix, 10; I Chron. xxviii, 21). While some builded, others held the weapons, and even the build rs had their swords girded upon them verses 16-18). Our whole life is a warfare against the world, the flesh and the devil, and Eph. vi, 10-18, is the only way. For the many who are compelled to wait or tarry by the stuff while others work there is a word of great comfort in I Sam. xxx, 24. The workmen.bing far separated one from the other, were to be ever listening for the sound of the trumpet (verses 1S-20), so we, girt about with truth and with the hword of the Spirit, are to be ever listening for the trumpet of I Thess. iv, 10, which shall end the present age, or at least proclaim it near, by the fact that the church has been com pleted. - These builders certainly worked a full labor day, "from the rising of the morning till the stars appeared" (verse 21), but we are not working full time unless by a prayerful or financial Ii terest, or both, in some miissionary on the other side of the globe, who works while we sleep, and vice versa, we are earnestly living to cmplete the church. Making It Pleasant. "That's what I call a good dinner," remarked Bobby as he leaned back in his chair with an air of repletion. "Bobby," said his mother, "I'm ashamed of your saying such a thing." The visitor who was dining with the family laughed heartily. "Bobby ap preciates the -good things of life," he said, "like all the rest of us." "Don't you think It wvas a good din ner" Bobby asked the visitor. "Yes, indeed," the latter replIed, with a smile. "I enjoyed it thoroughly." "Mother said she thought you would, because she didn't suppose you got very much at home." Seaweed sauceM. The Japanese have many curious recipes for cooking seaweed, which, w'i.h fern, is almost a staple, article of dilet in China, Japan and the Asiatic archipelago. A number of species of seaweed are eaten. Some are soaked, others are dried. Many of the Jap anese and Chinese sauces are made from seaweed.
