Completing a Great Work.
When it was proposed, in 1853, by

other. representative Methodist clergy-
men, to prepare a new Biblical and,
theological dictionary to supersede that

thought to be financiafly impractiaable,

th re such a lovely combinatio
required for the completion of the book,
another a.tternpt was made to arrange
for its publication. This was under-
taken by the ' Messrs. Harper on the
terms _proposed , by the authors, Mr.
Fletcher Harper, who conducted the
negotiations on behalf of the firm, re-
marking that he "would rather .have
the document than fifty thousand dollars
in Teal estate."
The work, Which was at that time
largely prepared, was begun over again
on a greatly extended plan, which, it
was supposed, would require six volumes
to carry out.l. The appearance of the
great dictionariee of Herzog, Smith, and
others, and the rapid advances mean-
while made ie various departments of
Biblical reseaech, called for a still far-
ther enlargement of the plan of the
cyclopedia; so that, when Volume I.
was fully prepared, it included only the
first two letters of the alphabet. ' That
volume was in type at the outbreak of
the Civil war, which brought ail such
great literasi enterprises to a stop. At
the close of the war the volume was
largely remodeled, and was 'finally pub-
lished in 1867. The next two volumes
folloveecl int 1868 and 1870, bringing the
work downto the end of the letter G.
-But, early in the progress of the third
volume, Dr. McClintock's sudden.death,
March 4, 1870, threw the sole reeponsi-
Islay of editorship upon Dr. Strong.
The two had labored, thus far, seParate-
ly upon their respective departments,
both as to the preparation of manuscript
and the reading of proof -sheets with
such consultation only in regard,to des,
tails as was necessary to secure complete-
ness and prevent duplication. With the
aid of a corp e of able contributers and
assistants, pe. Strong was able to com-
plete the foirth volume in 1871, the
fifth in 1.873, the sixth in 1876, the
seventh in 1877, the eighth in 1878, the
ninth in, 1880, and the tenth in 1881.
With the teath volume the cyclopedia
reached the end of the alpha,bet ; but
during the seventeen years of th el publi-
cation the growth of material had been
so great as to require the preparation of
two supplementary volumes. These
were intend d to keep pace witli the
valuable c m ributions made to Biblical
topography, ecclesiastical arclaeology,
and mytko1ogis.a.1 literature, and to
cemplete the biographical dep rtirient
of the work by including some sa tement
of the life and labors of all pees ns who
have occupied a public place in the
history of religion and of the ehurch.
The second a,nd last of these Volumes is
about to make its appearance, and with
it ends, in the words of Dr. Strong's
final preface, " a task of more than
thirty years' continuance in its literary
accomplishnient, and more than twenty
in its typographical execution."
The plan 'Of the work, as stated in the
original prospectus, was to preeent all
items of sacred technology, classified un-
der general Ititles, under one alphabet,
in volumes id a convenient size, as a
manual of seared literature so eompletet
in itself that no other work mill. be
necessary1 or ordinary purposes of
reference in hese branches of knowledge.
It was, in short, intended to be a library
in itself with respect to the religious
thought and information heretofore ac-
cumulated.. The twelve volumes to
which the work has grown contain over
12,000 supee-royal octavo pages of minion
type, include some 60,000 titles, and are
illuetrated by 2,900 cuts and 76 maps.
One hundred thousand books have been
consulted in the preparation of the
work, and about a ton of manuscript hag
gone to the making of it. The list of
contributoris an imposing one, and in-
cludes the names of theologians of all
Peotestant denominations, besides those

time was under full headway, came to a
dead stop.
Then began a transfer of telegraphic
messages. The passengers were anxious
to know wilat was the matter. They '
waited while the messages went back
and forth. The inquiry established the
fact that everything was right on the
line, and the train was ordered forward
after considerable delay.
The station master about this time
thought it might be well to look into his
gong, and there he found, stuck fa.st be-
tween the cogs of the electricalapparatus,
a poor little mouse.
The unhappy animal had happened to
be in the interior of the clock when it
"struck one," and down he attempted
to run, but was caught between the
murderous wheels. His little body was
big enough to stop the whole apparatus,
and consequently the train ars

Clerical Anecdote.
A certain woman once called upon her
minister to tell him how much`her mind
had been hurt. Her pastor received her
with all tenderness, and inquired into
thecause of her distress. She went on
to say that her mind was very much
hurt indeed, but she did not know how
to tell him. The ininister, judging it
must be something eerious, urged her to
be explicit on the subject of her distress.
At last she said: "It is the length of
your bands when in the pulpit." "Oh,"
said the minister, "the length of my
bands, is_it, that so distressed you? I
will takecare that that shall be a source
of distress to you no more." So, fetch-
ing his bands, he said: "Here is a pair
of scissors; cut them to your wish."
After she had done this she thanked him,
and professed to feel her mind relieved.
"Well, my friend," said the minister,
' I may tell you that my mind has also
been very much hurt, perhaps even more a
than yours." " Oh, sir, I m sorry for
that; what, ir has hurt your mind
so ?" He rep

• In comparison to the extent of south-
ern California, the localities suited to
the growth, of the orange, lemon and
lime are very limited. I mean by this
that the places where the orange can be
brought to ;perfection, without coddling,
wrapping, ;etc., are few and limited in
extent ; non the far-famed 'Riverside
there are enemy grovea on the lower
ground wnere they get an occasional
freeze, and where, intheir young stage,
the trees have to be wrapped and cover-
ed each winter, and in the valleys nearer
the coast4 Los Angelos, for instance,
they get 4o many fogs that the fruit is
more or less spotted with fungoid
growth which materially affects their
keeping einalities and sale, so that,really
speaking, there is only the mesa land,
near the :interior foothills, where the
fruit is brought to its highest perfection,
and whete, year by year, the grove
yields a i good income to the grower.
Bat given a good location, planted to
a good badded fruit, there is no tree
planted that will yield such en income
ae the orange. The planting is done
from February to June. Seeding plants
cost front 40 to 60 cents each; budded
trees froth 75 cents to ,51 each. They
are planted all the way from eighteen
.feet apart to thirty feet,ancl the estimate
of last season's planting in the three
counties,—viz: San Diego, San Berner-
clino and Los Aagelos,—wes 1,000 acres,
or nearly 100,000 trees, and these are
almost etclusively Waehingten Navels.
The outpat of last season was aboutl5.-
000 boxee, or somewhat over 35,000,000
oranges, I and Riverside alone netted
$300,000 for their crop. An orange
orchard, itit is well attended to and pro-
perly cared for, will begin to pay about
the fifth year from planting. The lem-
on is harder to cultivate ttan the orange
and the crop is more expensive to han-
dle. The owner of a lemon grove must
hake a cool curing -house, if he would
make anything out of his crop, because
the lernoin should be picked before it is
ripe, and placed in bins in cool rooms
to cure. When picked the skin is thick,
and not very juicy, but when properly
cured it comes out with a thin skin and

C. L. Papst; Jeweller, Seaforth. Dear
The Columbus movement I purchased from you
some time ago„ in a Boss filled case, is as repre-
sented, and I don't think there is any watch ;
made in the world that will keep better time, as
mine has never varied since I purchased it, and
I would tell everybody to get 4. Columbus move-
ment when wanting a good watch. Yours truly,
JOHN PAREEK, Windsor, Ont.
•
C. L. Papst, Jeweller: When you said take the
Columbus watch if you want a timekeeper, 1
a little indifferent, but I must say my °pm -
was agreeably changed, as I can find no
oetter watch as a timekeeper than the Colum-
bus; so say 1, take the Columbus movement
every tiine. Truly yours, L. MURPHY. October
28th, 1886.
CI L. Papst, Esq.: The Columbus watch which
you recommended me to take, is a first-class
timekeeper, and I think there is no better. I
am well satisfied with my bargain. Roam
DoDDs.
C. L. Papst, Jeweler, Seaforth. Dear Sir:
The Columbus movement which I purchased in
d screw bizzel case, some 10 months ago, baS
given me entire satisfaction, but I broke what a
jeweler, to whom I took it to have it repaired
when you were out of business for a short time,
called a ruby phaand that man charged tee $1.75
for the ruby pin. However, I am thoroughly
convinced that the Columbus movements are the -
best that are made for time, if they are all as
good as mine. Yours truly, Joliet WESTLAKE.

To C. L. Papst, Jeweler, Seaforth. Dear Sir:
The Columbus Watch which I bought from you
is a grand one for keeping time,and I art greatly
pleased with it. 1t has kept time to the minute,
and I would not part with it for any other watch
or the price I paid for it, and I can sell another
watch if you have one like mine,to a friend Imre.

I feel it my duty to inform you how highly satis-
fied I am with the double cascd gold Columbus
watch I purchased fram you some months ago.
'care not holy much money is paid for a watch,

over three Months, except to wind it up, and 1

you said to be sincerely true. Yours truly, F. II.

1 got this watch so wond'rous cheap
That I could scarce believe it good,
But science with its scantlings deep,
Has done what custom never could,
And I have proved the truth of, this
That highest value must attach
To that Which never goes amiss,
The American "Columbus" watch,
Its neatness is as unsurpassed
As its good qualities are proved,
'Tis aacnrate and made to last,
A watch by ponctual men approved.
An able judge would pick them out
Of every maker's in a batch,
And none who tries will ever doubt
Pa.pst!s great "Columbus" watch.
The makers to the public sell
Their watches at the lowest price,
And all they do they do it well,
Without one trait of false device.
They don't incur a dime of debt,
They have no doubtful schemes to hatch,
And never has been equalled yet,
The American "Columbus" watoh.
