The North German Lloyd Company sent a professional diver to try and locate the wreck of the Elbe, and to re- port about the possibility of getting at bodies, which may still be held in the wreck, and also to attempt to extricate what valuables might be gotten at. He reports the following : ‘We set outon the wrecking steamez Elise and hovered for almost two weeks around the spot where the Elbe sank. She lies listed to the port side ata depth of over 4) fathoms (249 feet). favorable results could therefore hardly be expected. our best to among six Germans, To Le In spite of this we tried descend to the vessel, but prof divers, two two Frenchmen and two Englishmen, not one could dive deeper than 170 feet. I attempted it once daily, for six consecutive days, but when I got to the depth mentioned, which was the greatest depth reached by any of those on board, the pressure of the water upon my body was so powerful that it seemed to me all the air was. pressed out of my body. It was difficult-to breathe; the ears began to pain and bleed, and a numbness seemed to penetrate the head, which I concluded was the beginning of wan- ing consciousness. Since, with a diver attired in a scaphander suit, loss of consciousness would be fatai, the at- tempts reach the Elbe had to be abanioned. From the deepest point I reached I could see the hull of the Elbe ‘ssional to as through a fog. Sheis Usted to the port side, and the masts and smoke- stacks could plainly be scen.” IRON IN BUILDINGS. How Long Will It Last in Modern Steel-Frame Structures is a Ques- tion. The radical change, within the last few years, in the construction of large buildings—steel taking the place of brick and stone in securing strength and rigidity—makes pertinent a dis- cussion on the durability of iron in modern structures, which was the sub- ject before a recent meeting of the Chicago Engineers’ Club. When iron is used in a perfectly dry location it can be depended upon indefinitely. But experiment has shown that moisture can be driven through a stone or brick wall at least three and one-half feet thick. How to protect the steel from the oxidizing and deteriorating effects of moisture is a subject on which the engineers do not agree. Painting is advocated by many, but the matter of a suital le materiai for paint is also an open and an important question. One engineer of long experience doubtsif any paint will ever be dis- covered which will prove a permanent protection to iron. He advocated, therefore, that buildings be so con- structed that all the vital parts can be got at for inspection and treatment. Under present methods the stcel struc- ture is encased in stone, brick or terra cotta, where it is apt to become damp and to rust, and where it is imposs:ble to protect it from the corrosive action: of the elements. Migration of Songs. “Annie Rooney” is taken directly, with a mere change of tempo, from a chorale of Bach, and Wagner derived the so-called bel motif ‘*Parsifal” froin the same source as the author of ‘Down Went McGinty.” It was announced as a special attraction that a certain Mile, Dufont would, in the course of a play, sing the celebre chanson *Tha-ra-raboun-dere.” When the time came and Mlle. Dnfont appeared she had an immense audience. The first few lines made it evident (not to the audience, however) that this ingenious young woman had shrunk from the task of ‘‘gctting up” the lines of the genuine version, but had instead con- structed a set of verses of her own by piecing together all the English words she had ever heard. The first verse then ran something like this : Anglaise, Ticket tramway clergyman Bifstick rumstick, rosbif van Sandwich whitebaits lady lunch Sheri-cobler, whisky punch ; Oh—yes all right shocking stop Pale ale why not mutton chop Plum cake music steamcr box Bull dog high life five o’clock. Tha-ra-ra boum-der-e, etc. It was an immense success. The audience rose at her. They knew that the English was all right, because they themselves recognized ua good many of the words. She had an cva- tion and nine encores. Thoir Thirst For Knowledge. ‘“Mamma, what day is this?” “This is Friday, dear.” “Where's Sunday ?” “Sunday is still in the future.” ‘*How did it get there ?” *T mean it hasn't come yet.” “It hasn't? What’s keeping it? “Why, dear, it can’t come until its time for it.” “How does it know when it’s t'me for it 7” ‘Don’t bether me, Katie.” **Mamma, what's Sunday doing, any- how ?” He Cares for Us, “Weare the portion the Lord takes out of the hand of His enemy and ours, and He cares for us as such. A love that is everlasting, a care that is liken- ed to that which guards the pupil of the eye,a fidelity of attachment to which the mother’s love fiuds no par- allel—these have been expended on us and are still in operation towards us, Can it be doubted, then, that He caree for us.”—Dr. John Hall.

Don’t Make Any Mistake When you are threatened with consump tion or jurg troubles and get the wrong kind ot emulsion. There is only one perfect, pleasant and ett-ctive preparation of that fe giving substance and it is Miller's Emulsion. There is no bad taste to this preparation. It is compounded on an entirely new principle, by which the vital energy of the liver of the Norwegian codfish is retained and incorporated with the hypophosphites of lime and soda, making the most potent blood maker known to science. It has saved thousands of young lives, and is revolutionizing the old niethods of consumption treatment. Miller’s Emulsion is the great nerve strengthener and blood maker, and cures Coughs, Colis, Bronchitis, Scrofula and all Lung affections. In big bottles, 50c. and $1, at all drug stores.

Ueprincipled persons are trying to prey upon and dupe people who are Jed to ask for kidney treatment. Some of the methods adoptee by imitat- ors are as follows: First—To imitate the size, color and thaye of Dodd’s Kidney Pilis and sell them by count. Second—To put them up to appearfvery neaily the same and to be offered at the same price. Third—To hook on the work “kidney” in naming cathortic pills so as to increase sales of mere physic. Fourth—To givea name so near to Dodd’s that unwary people may be deceiv- ed and think they are getting Dodd’s. Look out for such dodges. When you want kidney medicine you want the best. And oughe not to be the subject for any trick. So beware. Man is made up largely of strut and blow.

Rockefeller’s Proposed New Year's Gift to Chicago University. RHEUMATISM its Cause and Cure. John D. Rockefeller, whohas already } A poisonous Acid in the Blood, I riven over $4,000,000 to his pet project, she Chicago University, has notified the trustees that on Jan. 1, 18935, he would zive the university $1,000,000 in cash. Accompanying this generous sul scription was an offer of $2,000,000 more on condition that the University se- | cured an additional $2,000,000 by Jan. 1, 1900. Mr. Rockefeller will not wait for the ntire additional $2,000,000 to be ed by the university, part of it in $50,000 or $100,000 bundles is obtained he will present his « for a like amount. Dr. W. R. Harper, prestdent of the secur- but as fast as any 1 te neyue university, Says he is confident that he | can raise the $2,000,000 and thus secure | If he does Mr. Rockefeller’s | $4,000,000, endowments and gifts to the Chicago ! University will amount to more than £7 000,000, His last cash gifts were in Novem- ber, 1893, $590,000; January, 1894, $50,- January, 1895, $175,000. Previous to 1893 he gave $2,000,000 in 6 per VUO : cent, bonds as an endowment, besides $2,000,- 000 in other forms for building and school purposes. Chicago men and women have given an aggregate of more than $38,000,000, The chief contributors are Marshall #ield, Martin Ryerson, Sydney Kent and Charles T. Yerkes. It isa coincidence that this enormous gift should come so suddenly after the decapitation of Prof. Bemis for his at- tacks on trusts and millionaires. It is equally strange that during the time that Prof. Bemis taught his sys- tem of political economy gifts to the university were ratker scarce. It is the intention of Mr. Rockefeller and the friends of the university in Chicago to make it one of the most richly endowed universities in the country. The one great factor against the suc- cess of the enterprise is that it is de- nominational, and therefore narrow. President Harper’s attainments are in the way of deciphering Sanskrit and in- terpreting Scripture, though his best success has been as a money getter, WHEN IN BATTLE, A Gigantic Red-Coated Sergeant Tells of Varying Emotions. “T should think there scarcely more than one man in a thousand who can truthfully say that he has never known fear,” remarked a gigantic red- coated sergeant to the writer. “IT remember I was mortally afraid for my life the first time I was under fire. I saw men dropping all around me, and it seemed impossible that I should escape. I turned cold all over, and shivered so that I could load my rifle. ‘**When the enemy charged, however, it was different. I saw the man next me struck through the heart with a spear, and in a second I had shot down the man who had slain him. Afte: that I forgot my own risks, and simply fought with one idea, to kill as many of the foe as I could before I was killed is hardly myself. Every time I slew one of the enemy I felt a thrill of fierce joy; in short, 1 was mad with the lust for blood. “Just previous to the engagement I have mentioned I saw aman in the same company as myself actually cry- ing from sheer fright ; yet in the battle itself, that man fought like a tiger, and saved the life of an officer by a gallant for which he decorated. ‘*You see, before the battle a man has time to think of what may happen, but ina fighthe knows that he must same + act, was kill or be killed, and he forgets all else. This explains why a man who will tamely submit to a ‘belting’ from a smaller comrade in barracks will fight with the utmost courage in actual warfare.”—Pittsburg Dispatch. Jewsin Jerusalem. The regainment of Jerusalem by the Jews is one of those historical possibil- ities that specially cay tivates the mind by their appropriate pictures: For vears—a fact probably not widely known among Gentiles—a systematic agitation having in view a the race to the home of their has been going on, and the present results are surely encouraging. Dr. Caleb Merrill, formerly United States consul at Jerusalem, that of the 47,000 inhabitants of the Holy City, 27,000 are Jews. Another side of this programme of racial revivification an and local unification meness, ot : f return ol fathers says —_ aims at the re storation of Hebrew as a_ spoken tongue. Butit appears from recent statistics that the idea of its be ing a dead language must be asa popular delusion. More people to-day are using Hebrew as a literary vehicle than when Moses drove his chariot through the Red Sea. Shakespeare and Goethe have been completely trans- lated into Hebrew, and are read with avidity by thousands who enjoy at the same time the sublime poetry of Isaiah classed and of Solomon the son of David, All this recalls Disraeli’s boast that he be- longed to the most tital and un- conquerable race in the world. The Greek and the Roman have evaporated, but the despised and tortured Jew—the Christ race of humanity—remains— [lustrated American. Homeless. The saddest thing I can imagine is a homeless man. One who has no abid- ing place; one who cannot stop with- out some one bidding him for whom in all the earth there is no welcome resting place which he can call home and where love shares and softens his sorrows. Sadder than this is the houseless, homeiess soul, While you are planning for the body think of the soul, Make provision for it by accepting God’s merciful bounty for move on3 forgiveness and faith.—Rey.
