N THE TRAMP BOULDER. Remarkable Evidence of Glacial Influence ■ In New Jersey. Countless thousands of years ago vast stretches of glacial deposits came sliding actors the State of New Jer¬ sey, mounted the Palisades, pushed their way across the Hudson River, scoured over Manhattan Island and slid out into the Atlantic Ocean, whither they disintegrated and sank into the deep or perhaps glided on to the other ocean shore. But in their onward march these glaciers left indestructible evidence o! their grinding stride and to-day, all along the Palisades the trap rocks and boulders are worn smooth where the mountains of ice and sand passed over them. In some rocks are deep scratches, all pointing eastward, and showing which way the glacial,deposits drifted. There is the evidence, mute but indisputable. To the careful observer there are numberless other eVidences of the presence of glacial influences in the Past, .... but _________ none aie more convincing than the tramp boulder that has finally settled down in the woods in the heart of Englewood borough. There it sits, a towering mass of rock weighing per- haps two hundred tons, and resting upon three points which in themselves find nnd fl a purchase nurchase nn on a a flat nat rock rock that tnat i3 is part of and common to the character of rock which composes the Palisades, But, strangely enough, and to the won- derment of geologists, the tramp boulder is red sandstone from the Jer- sey hills twenty-five miles inland, and the pedestal is metamorphite or soft granite. Around this marvelous monument have grown trees that may, perhaps, be a century old, and they have com¬ pletely hedged it in; while the rock itself has stood where it stands to-day for thousands of years. On the pedes¬ tal, or that part of it which is pro¬ tected from the action of the elements, can be seen the deep ridges and scars made across the flat surface by the great grinding pressure of the body of ice and sand that passed over it count¬ less years ago when New York was ice and snow clad, and the world was a desolate waste in a state of chaos. This tramp boulder has cause! geologists much wonderment, and is regarded to-day as one of the finest specimens ever left in the wake of a glacier. It Is equally astounding as though an explorer should find the hull of a steamboat in the Sahara desert. The only way it could get there would be through some great convulsion that had landed it from the sea to the heart of the inland sands.—New York Journal. Makes It Right.

Text: “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things whatsoever are true, whatsoever things are hon¬ est, things things nro just, whatso¬ ever are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever tilings are of good re¬ port; If there bo any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.’’—Philip- pians, iv., S.

You. in a similar spirit of impatience, the may sometimes be tempted to voice same opinion. But don’t. For, in spite of lies, white and black, polite lies, business lies and malicious lies -lies that seem to worm themselves into every cir¬ cumstance ot life—the world in general hates tho lie and loves the truth. This is wny you caunot iusult a man more deeply than to give him the llo. The insult is due to tho fact that public opinion demands I tho truth. Look, then, on this side of life, ^aUomn* y° uc mind t0 d weU on ^o^^t there is much dishonesty in the world—dishonesty waters,his from tho milkman who milk to the railroad magnate who waters his stock. Your calico won’t wash, your sugar contains glucose and your pepper sawdust. But never mind, after all people in general are honest aud at heart believe that “honesty is the best policy.” “KS 1 ® stop to-morrow. Think, then, on this bet- ter aspect of human life, exa^? “an who steals a loaf of bread goes to jail while the man who steals a million of money at worst goes to Congress. There is doubtless some truth in this view. And yet there is a just God, and though some¬ times He may seem a little slow, His grist is, on tho whole, a pretty good article of justice. Remember always that in the long run, anyway, even in this world, right makes might. Think on this, and don’t let tho fact that many conditions seem un¬ even and unfair sour your spirit. Again,there are those who look for dirt and find plenty of it. Human life is by no means immaculate, it is true, but none the less the world is full of the purity of in- nocent childhood, glorious won&nhood and noble manhood. Look upon this side of life—tlie side that lies opt iu the sun¬ light of God’s approval. The pessimist thinks that everything is imperfect. He examines faulty. It the blade of grads and finds it is sure to be split or crushed or stunted or otherwise malformed. He al¬ ways discovers the worm in the heart of the rose or the thorn on the stem, Don’t go in his company. See, rather, the loveli- ness scattered over tho world with such a lavish hand. Why; as someone has Bhown viewed us, even the wayside mud puddle, if at the proper angle, is a thing of beauty, and mirrors the sky and reflects in its bosom the clouds of heaven. Then why give heed to ill report, either? Forget the bad that you hear of your 'Tliero fel¬ lows and remember the good. is great need of this advice. We are all a little too fond of evil reports. The daily papers, which really only print what the public demands, show this. What is tbe menu of our breakfast paper? In large measure dish of tilth a plate and of bowl violence of blood. and robbery, “Give a a a dog a bad name and that’s the end of him.” Just so. Well, refuse to think on ill report and you will not repeat it. If you wish to help God and re^oFt goodness think and speak things of good Yes, if there be any virtue, and if tlierd be any praise, think on these things, and you will be better and happier. Life is very much as you view it. As ahe proverb goes, “The jauudiced see ail things yellow.” Tbe gamin, says, “Ob, it’s all in your eye.” And so it is. Look on the right side of life and not on the wrong side. Life, no doubt, hns a seamy side, but be charitable. Don’t think on this side. A painting has a faee and a back.

Text: “Thechildren of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.”—Luke xvl., 8. That is another wav of saying that Chris¬ tians are not so skillful in the manipulation of spiritual affairs us worldlings uro skill¬ ful in the management of temporalities. I see all around me people who nro alert, earnest, concentrated und skillful in mone¬ tary matters, who in the affairs ot the soul are laggards, iuane, inert. Thegreat want of the world is raoro common sense in mat¬ ters ot religion. If one half of the skill and forcefulness employed In llnancial af¬ fairs win employed in disseminating the truths of Christ and trying to make the world better, within tun years the last Jug¬ gernaut would fall, the last throne of op¬ pression upset, the last iniquity tumble and the anthem that was chanted over Bethle¬ hem on Christmas night would bo echoed and Fa-echoed from all Nations aud kindred and people: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good-will to men.” Iu the first place, iny friends, wo want more common sense in the building and couduct of churches. The idea of adap¬ tiveness is always paramount in any other kind of structure. If bankers meet to¬ gether, the and they resolve especially upon putting adapted up-a hank, bank is to banking purposes; if a manufacturing com¬ pany manufacturing puts up a building, It is but to be adaptive¬ adapted to purposes; ness is not always the question iu the rear¬ ing of ohurohes. In many of our churches we want more light, more room, more ven¬ tilation, more comfort. Vast sums of money are expended on eeclesiastlonl struc¬ tures, and men sit down in them, and you ask a man how he Hkes+hechurch; hesays: “I like it very well, but I pan’t hear.” Again I remark: We want more common sense in the obtaining of religious hope. All men understand that in order to suc¬ ceed in worldly directions they nffist con¬ centrate. They think on that one object, on that one subject, until their mind takes tire with the velocity of their own thoughts. All their acumen, all their strategy, all their wisdom, all their com- mon sbcse they put in that one direction., and they succeed. But how seldom It is true in the matter of seeking after God! While no man expects to aoeotnplish any¬ thing for this world without concentra¬ tion and enthusiasm, how mauy are there expecting after a while to get into the kingdom of God without the u^o of any such means. Again, I remark: We want more common sense in the building up und enlarging of our Christian character. There are men wLio have for forty years been.,running the Christian race, and they haven’t run a quarter of a mile! No business man would bo willing to have his investments unac- eumulative. If you invest a dollar you ex¬ pect that dollar to come homo bringing an¬ other dollar on Its back. What would you think of a man who should invost $10,000 in a monetary institution, then go off for five years, make no Inquiry in regard to the investment, then oome back, step up to the cashier of the institution and say. “Have you kept those $10,000 safely that I lodged with you?” but asking Why, no question about interest or dividend? you say, “That is not common sense." Neither is it, but that is the way we act in matters of tho sou). We make a far more important in¬ vestment than $10,000. Wo Invest our soul. It is accumulative? Are we growing ingraoo? Are we getting better? Are wo getting worse? God declares many divi¬ dends, but we do not collect thorn; wo do not want them. Oh, that in this matter of accumulation wo were as wise ill the mat¬ ters of the soul as we are in the matters of the world! How little common sense in the reading of the Scriptures! Wo get any other book, and wo open it, and we say, “Now what does this book mean to teaoh me? It is a book on astronomy; It will teach mo as¬ tronomy. It is a book on political econ¬ Taking omy; it will this teach me political ask economy. up Bible, do we ourselves what It means to teach? It means to do just one thing, get the world converted and get us all to heaven. That is what it pro¬ poses to do. But instead of that wo go into the Bible as botanists to piok flowers, or light we go as pugilists Christians to with, get something to other or wo go as logicians trying to sharpen our mental faculties for a better argument, and we do not like this about the Bible and we do not like that, and wo do not like tho othor How little we use common sense in prayer! We say, “Oh, Lord, givemethls,” and “Oh, Lord, give me that,” and “Oh, Lord, give me something else,” and we do not expect to get it, or getting It, we do not know we have it. We have no anxiety about it. We do not watch and wait for its coming. As a merchant, you telegraph for bill or of you write to some other city a goods. You say, “Send me by such ex¬ press, or by such a steamer, or by such a rail-train.” The day arrives. You send your wagon to the depot or to the wharf. The goods do not come. You immediately telegraph, “What is the matter them. with those Send goods? We haven’t received them right away. We want them now, or we don’t want them at all.” And you keep writing, and you keep telegraphing, and keep sending your wagon to the depot, or to the express office, or to the wharf, until you get tho goods. In matters of religion we are not so wise as that. We ask certain things to be sent from heaven. We do not know whether they come or not. Wo have not any special anxiety as to whether they come or not. We may get them and we may not get them. Instead of at 7 o’clock in the morning saying, “Have I got that blessing?” at 12 o’clock, noon¬ day, asking, “Have I got that blessing?” at 7 o’clock in the evening saying, “Have I received that blessing?” and not getting it, pleading, pleadiug—begging, it. begging- asking, asking until you get Now, If my brethren, is not that common sense? we ask a thing from God, who has sworn by His eternal throne that He will do that which we ask, is it not common sense that we should watch and wait until we get tt? But I remark again: We want more com¬ mon sense in doinf; good. Oh, how many people there are who want to do good, and they are dead failures! Why is it? They do not exercise the same tact, the same in¬ genuity, the same stratagem, the same common sense in the work of Christ that they do in worldly things. Otherwise they would succeed in this direction as well as they sucmukI in the other, There are many men wVo hovif thely an arrogant way with them, their although may they not feel patronizing arrogant in soul.

CHARGED IVITll ROBBERY. Prominent Merchants Haiti to lie ator* Against, tho Southern. Railroad authorities have what they believe to he the scheme a gang of robbers, which, according the claims of the detectives, promises to be as groat a sensation ns the ex¬ posure of the Bohauon gang at ton, Ga. H. B. Carter, a prominent tine operator, of Brookville, Fla., Frank Herrington, another citizen the same town, were placed in the Fulton county jail at Atlanta Satur¬ day. The officials in charge of the case say their evidence against their prisoners is strong, and that further work may result in the arrest of other parties. The officials clft'rn that Carter had goods shipped to himself, subtly re¬ moved the goods from the car at the place of destination, then burned the car, afterwards claiming damages from tho railroad people and leaving his creditors in the lurch. The circumstances surrounding the arrest of Herrington are rather mea¬ ger. The railroad authorities are mak¬ ing assiduous efforts to keep the mat¬ ter quiet. The two prisoners were smuggled into the county jail without their names being docketed and no charge was booked against them. The prisoners protest their inno¬ cence, and say they can present suffi¬ cient proofs of this at the proper time. They will be held to await further in¬ vestigation, Last August Carter was in business at dirontwood, Ga., a little town on the Georgia Southern, a branch of the Southern railway, fifteen miles north of Jesup. Moody was agent for the railroad at the same place. Carter’s establishment was rather large for a country town. He handled general merchandise, buying most of his goods from Atlanta and Macon. The road did not regard Brentwood of sufficient importance to erect a de¬ pot, and an old box car was made to serve the purpose on a side track. Last August Carter ordered an un¬ usually large bill of goods from At¬ lanta and Macon, amounting to about $3,300. On Saturday night, August 28tb, this freight car depot was burned to the ground under mysterious circum¬ stances. The folk of the vicinity made an effort to locate the source of the flame, but without success. Car¬ ter claimed he had lost his goods in the fire, and later filed suit against the Southern road for the above amount. When this suit was filed the road immediately suspected fraud some¬ where. Likewise the various firms who had sold Carter the goods. On consent of the roads and the merchants, a detective, who succeeded in collect¬ ing sufficient evidence to convict the Bohannon gang, was employed on the case, and he went at once to Brent¬ wood. After making careful observa¬ tion of the surroundings he was satis¬ fied Carter had removed his goods from the car and then set it on fire. According to the detective, further investigation developed the fact, be charges, that Carter and Moody hauled the goods from the car a night or two before the fire, and hiding them in some lonely spot, had afterwards set fire to the car themselves. Recently these goods were hauled, it is said forty miles through the country and shipped to Carter at Brookville, Fla. POWDER CAN EXPLODES. / Mi(ny Persons Badly Injured At Asheville, N. C., While Firing: a Cannon* A crowd of one hundred or more men and boys were firing a Christmas salute from an oid cannon on the out¬ skirts of Asheville, N. C., when a can of thirty pounds of powder exploded in the thick of the crowd. Thirty or forty persons were injured, but none, it is believed, fatally. The cannon was fired several times, and then one of the party picked up the powder can and began to reload the cannon. The gun had not been swabbed and the moment the tiny stream of powder struck the heated metal there was a flash and the powder exploded with a report that made the earth tremble, A moment later there was a scene , . . f tl that, made sick tne neai ts oi inese se watching from a near-by hill, In the smoke that rose from the explosion they _ saw K . v unman beings oemgs run run blindly minuiy here and there over the hill, falling nll J rising, only to fall again as they frantically rushed about, blinded and powder burned, madly trying to extin- guisli their flaming clothing.

Where it is Cultivated, and How it is Dis¬ tilled, Notwithstanding the comparatively narrow limits of its natural environ¬ ment, says a bulletin in the United States Department of Agriculture, the camphor tree grows well In cultivation under widely different conditions. It has become abundantly naturalized in Madagascar. It flourishes at Buenos Ayres. It thrives in Egypt, in the Canary Islands, in southeastern France, and in the San Joaquin Val¬ ley in California, where the summers are hot and dry. Large trees, at least two hundred years old, are growing in the temple courts at Tokio, where they are subject to a winter of seventy to eighty nights of frost, with an occa¬ sional minimum temperature as low as 12 to 16 degrees. The conditions for reajly successful cultivation appear to be a minimum Winter temperature not 8r below twenty degrees, fifty inches more of rain during the warm grow¬ ing season, and an abundance of plant food, rich in nitrogen. In the native forests in Formosa, Fukien, and Japan camphor is distilled almost exclusively from the wood of the trunks, roots and larger branches. The work is performed by hand labor, and the methods employed seem rather crude. The camphor trees are felled, and the trunk, larger limbs, and sometimes the roots are cut into chips, which are placed in a wooden tub about forty inches high and twenty inches in diameter at the base, taper¬ ing toward the top like an old-fash¬ ioned churn. The tub has a tight-fit¬ ting cover, which may he removed to put in the chips. A bamboo tube ex- tends Condenser. from near the top of the tub into the This consists of two wooden tubs of different sizes, the larger one right side up, kept about two-thirds full of water from a con- tinuous stream which runs out of a hole in one side. The smaller one is inverted with its edges below the wa- ter, forming an air-tight chamber. This air chamber is kept cool by the water falling on the top ar.d running down over the sides. The upper part of the air chamber is sometimes filled with clean rice straw, on which camphor crystallizes, while the oil drips down and collects on the surface of the water. In some cases the camphor and oil are allowed to collect together, and are afterward sep- arated by filtration through rice straw or by pressure. About twelve hours are required for distilling a tubful by this method. Then the chips are re¬ moved and dried for use in the fur¬ nace, and a new charge is put in. At the same time the camphor and oil are removed from the condenser. By this method twenty to forty pounds of chips are required for one pound of crude camphor. Cocoanut Candy. An easy way to make delicious cocoanut candy is to boil three cups of granulated sugar with tnree-fourths of a cup of water until it “ropes” when ponred from a spoon. Then re¬ move from the fire and stir in the freshly grated cocoanut, which must be in readiness. Flavor with vanilla, and spread on buttered tins. When sufficiently hard, cut into small squares.
