Scholarly Men nnd fine Pulpit, If scholarly men more and more reject the church as the means by which they will influence opinion and conduct and replace it by educational, editorial and administrative agencies, tho next century may be altogether guided in Its intellectual decisions and In those of Its actions which tlepond on intellectual Judgments by forces outside tho church. Our grandfathers looked to the minister for advice not only upon religious beliefs and moral practice, but also upon most matters outside their own direct acquaintance. The minister prescribed for the education of sons, solved social problems and acted as the source and Judge of truth in matters of general knowledge. Our sons seem likely to regard tho ministry as a body of men fitted to deal with men's religious welfare, but less fitted to be generous mentors in others. The direction of the people In other than pnrely religious activities may pass wholly out of the hands of the church.?Professor E. L. Thorndike in Century. A Trnnlr WrdrtlriK Rlnic. A tragic story of a forgotten wedding ring Is told In tlie "Idves of the Lindsays." IIo should have been at church when Colin Lindsay, the young Earl of PalearraH, was quietly eating Ills breakfast In nightgown and slippers. Reminded that Mauritla a? Nassau was waiting for him at the altar, he hurried to church, but forgot the ring. A friend present gave kins one, which he, without looking at, placed on the bride's ffngor. After the ceremony was over the countess glanced at her hand and beheld a grinning death's head on her ring. She fainted away, and the omen made sucli an Impression on her that on recovering she declared she was destined to die within a year, a presentiment that probably brought about its own fulfillment, for in a few months he careless Collu was a widower.

"J " The 7roK'i FeeUlnflr. Mr. Frog has an enormous mouth for his size, and if we were to put a finger Inside it we would find that he has n row of teeth in the upper Jaw and that his soft white tongue, unlike our own, is attached in front and Is freo behind. When he wishes to catch any insect he throws out the free end of the tongue, then draws it In so rapidly that It la diillcult to see whether ho has been successful or not. As the tongue Is coated with a gummy fluid, the insect sticks to it and is carried back into the tnouth, which closes upon it like the door of a tomb. Frogs, however, nre not limited to one mode of feeding. They often leap open mouthed upon larger prey, which Includes besides insects small fish; mice, small ducklings, polllwogs and tiny frogs. ? Woman's llome Companion. T1IR RVOLITIO* O? SllVi Fifteen years ago, when we first met Silas, he was an exceedingly commonplace*sort of fellow. He was then just of age and had worked loyally with his father, a poor, hand to mouth farmer, until he was twenty-one. His education had boon limited to what the country district school could give and wimi nu imu ueen nme to learn l>y experience nnd from n restricted line of rending matter. He was husky nnd strong physically, nnd no young man roundaltout wns more willing to work or could do a better day's work. Coming of ago and tlndlng himself his own boss, he had only one ambition, and that to make of himself a better farmer than his father had been. This Is what he did: llo hired out by the year to one of the best stockmen in the country nnd worked for him four years, learning all he could about stock?the breeding, feeding nnd judging?and the growing of crops used In stock feeding. lie worked hard, got goou wages, spoilt as little as possible 011 his personnl wants, and at the end of four years bad $1,000 and a knowledge anil experience worth a good deal more. lie then married a nice girl, thrifty, prudent and competent, and rented a large farm, well stocked, for n term of live years. At the end of his joase he was able to buy n $10,000 farm of his own, and now, six years later, ho is one of the leading men of his community, worth easily $20,000, drives his good wife and three children to church In a handsome carriage and lives in an idenl American farm home. The evolution of Silas is worth studying. Has Sold a Pile of (7 hangerIain's Cough Rd^nedy.
