tI a ICaiser 1s preparing forests for the
future. Systematic cutting of timber and
reforesting are practiced in Germany.
The province of Lorraine atone will fur-
nish 8,t>r36,l6 cubic feel of timber; 3,410.-
254 cubic feet Ls building timber and
5,504,340 cubic feet is fuel wood. Lor-
raine aLro furnishes over a million cubic
feet of brushwood for kindling and small
willow for basketry; and 8,970 cubic feet
of stomps and roots, which are carefully
gathered together and used for fuel. The
mountains never ere entirely denuded of
timber over any large territory or area,
and small strips are indicated for cut-
ting by the authorities, and thick forests
are frequently thinned out. All the
underbrush ae:d small branches are sold
In Lundles for fuel. Aside front the large
amount of limber furnished by the for-
ests of flatten and Alsace-Lorraine, new
timber is constantly being -planted to
supply the weeds of coming generations.
The forests are provided with splendid
drives and walks, snaking them at all
times aucesible to tourils. On Sun-
days the trains in Alsace-Lorraine and
Roden aro crowded with people from the
lilies and towns, who spend the day in
the foals.

Dr. (sailor I1. Coriat has been seeking
to arrive at the truth about the queer de-
tached memories of excessive drinkers.
The lost memories are merely subcon-
scious, and during a distraction of the
tipper consclousne. s may come to the
surface and occupy a place in the con-
scious mental life. This (inding of lost
memories occurs In dreams or in deliri-
ous or hallucinatory slate's. But Dr.
Corint sought to make such memories
conte back by means of hypnosis, or ex-
perimental distraction. A case was ad-
mitted to hospital suffering from delirium
tremens. On recovery it was found that
the patient had lost the memory of all
events front noon of one day to the
morning of the next. The experiment
was made in a quiet and darkened room.
No leading questions were asked, and
the only suggestion made to the patient
teas that he must try and till up the
blank period. The patient was asked to
close hos eyes and to listen intently,
while a magazine clip•dng was rend to
hint, the reading occupying about three
minutes. Ile was then told to open his
eyes and say what evenly had come into
his mind. ile immediately replied, "1
have it all now," and then proceeded to
recall the events he had forgotten.
Other similar experiments were more or
less successful.
Prizes for cleverness are awarded by
at least one German manufacturer to his
employee. in every shop a letter box is
put in a conspicuous place and the men
are asked to submit in writing sugges-
liens for Improving the work of the plant
or decreasing its cast. This is not ori-
ginal at Tegel ; it is in use in many
shops, but by close attention from Mr.
Dorn, the manager of the works, fifty
good suggestion have been put Into
effect In about n year and n half. The
suggestions are usually accompanied) by
sketches, sometimes by good drawings.
Those considered sufficiently meritorious
are put into effect. The employes receive
cash prizes for their suggoslions, the
amounts varying froin little sums to
about $1110, and. for a sot -teeny good
thing, above this.
The Greek girls go to the Royal School
of Needlework ar.d Laces at Athens,

'°NE WEPT OVER IT:'
God's Judgment in the Destruction
of Jerusaieum
And when Ile was coine near ile be-
held the city and wept over it. -Luke
x:x., 41.
This outburst of grief occurred as
Jesus rode' down Ihr' leaf) stupe of (Ni-
sei. Jerusalem In :el its glory burst
fuli upon His view. Relevy Hint in the
otep valley rolled the Kcdron, gleam-
ing in the grey sunbeams like a sheet
of burnished gold. Right in front, cul-
ling the western sky and crowning the
sleep crest of Mortal with while and
t'cld, ruse the magnificent temple, which
had been enlarged and completed by
Herod the Great. '
To the southwest, the highest of the
(our hills on which the city lay, tower-
ed the rocky Zion, bearing upon Its
rugged shoulders the royal palace.- To
the north appeared Itte bold brow cif
Acre, bearing the gardens and palaces
of the upper city. A panorama of in-
c:escribabto loveliness spread out be-
fore the Saviour's view, and he could
not have been Insensible to
ITS SURPASSING BEAUTY.
But the sentenoo of doom has been
traced by a mysterious hand upon the
oily. 'ibis sight of Jerusalem affected
ChrLst:s heart, and through His tears
Ilo sobs out Ute words of lamentation
and judgment:
"If thou hadst known, even thou at
least In this day, the things which be-
long unto thy peaml But now they
are hid from thine eyes. For the days
shall come upon thee that thine enemies
shall cast a trench about thee, and
compass thee around, and keep thee'
in on every side and shall lay thee even
With the groun 1 and thy children with-
in thee; and they shall not leave in
thee ono stone upon another; because
Ifiou knowest not the Urns of the visi-
tation."
Jerusalem had neglected the day of
her visitation. impending doom hung
over the city. "He wept over 11" When
Christ's grief was greatest at the grave
of Lazarus Ile wept In silence, but now
Ile sobs aloud to Ills agony. These
stars are more eloquent than speech;
they tell us better then words of the
extreme agony of His soul for the
doomed city. He wept because of the
sin and iniquity of the people in re-
jecting proffered salvation.
Neglecting salvation always brings
judgment upon individuals and nations.
IT DID UPON JERUSALEM.
In legs than forty years all that Jesus
foretold came to pass. Titus, In coin -
mend of the Roman army, besieged and
captured lho city.
During the siege of ninety duys, 1,-
;rA),t100 Jews perished and 97,000 were
taken prisoners. Some were sent to
toil in the dines of Egypt, others were
kept to grace in captive Lends the char-
iot wheels of their mighty conqueror in
the triumph eceot•ded tum at Menne and
to amuse their cruel caplots by entering
into gladiatorial contests in the ureua
to make a (Minim holiday.
What a fearful attribution for that
r.ad cry uttered some thirly-seven years
before al Pilate's judgment hall, "Itis
blood be upon rat and our children!"
What a vindication have we hero cf
God's truth.
When God says a thing He will surely
tering It to pass. He is never at a loss
for instruments to fulfill His decrees.
Ile inaketh the wrath of man to praise
Him. Many persons seem to think and
act as though God would prove
true and faithful to Ills promises •1
blessing, but that Ho will fail to per -
Germ [(Ls Words of threatening and
doom.
His judgments at -o not utterances of
passion, soon to pass away, as the
storm from the bosons of the deep. Ike
would cease to be the faithful God, the
sane yesterday, to -day and forever,
IF HE, FULFILLED TIIEM NOT.
The very same principle which binds
(lint to be true to His promise compels
iltm to perform His words of judgment.
You think of Christ on the Mount •.f
Olives, overlooking Jerusalem. He Is at-
tended by a jubilee throng. Ile Is giv-
ing pardon and life eternal to all who
believe in llitn. "I give unto theta
eternal life and they she'll never per-
ish," and you say, "that is just like
Jesus. God is faithful Who has 'prom-
ised!"
You behold flim weeping over the
city and calling down divine judgment
upon it. "Thine enemies shall cast a
trench about thee, and lay Thee even
with the ground, and not leave In then
cne stone upon another." You behold
the city encircled by the Roman army
as in the toils of a mighty serpent.
Then famine, pestilence and bloodshed.
JtwLsh blood ran so deep down Zion
that burning buildings were quenched
in the crimson stream. A thousand
crosses dot the hillsides, each bearing
a writhing victim. Beholding all this,
you aro compelled to cry out, "God is
faithful who has threatened!"
