There are six salts ..in Kruschen, and every one of them is necessary to perfect health. If you lead a strenuous life in the open air, if every organ in your body performs its functions perfectly, if your diet is exactly balanced, then you can extract from the food you eat and the air you breathe all that is necessary to keep you- fit. But if you spend the greater part of e t. / your life :,Iddon*, if you cannot get all the fresh air and exercise you need, if your eliminating organs don't do their work easily, , naturally, and ! - regularly, if•your diet is not exactly what it should be, if you wake un - refreshed, eat without appetite, work without zest, and play without enjoy- ment—Kruschen is what you need, and Kruschen will put you right. Kruschen sweetens and cleanses your blood, sets your internal- machinery - working smoothly, sends you out into• sunshine or shower with the same• cheery readiness for the day's work or the day's play.

The two of them -with a :bushel or two of their stones, had picked out the loneliest and least accessible part of Wyom- ing and gone about poking holes in the earth and stuffing gems into the cavities. The raids !wiped out all traces of their operations and brought the gems within a few inches of the surface. Any competent geologist would have told the investors that all these stones could not possibly be formed in the same formation, but it is probable that if Slack and Arnold had also planted some pearls and solid geld watches ,some victims 'would have beenonly more eager.

Lesson Passage—Genesis 28:10-17. Golden Text—Genesis 28:15. There was brought out in our last lesson the character of Jacob and Esau—they were very like men that we ,meet every day --commonplace, ordinary men; neither of them dis- tinguished in character or ability. They were children of a weak father and a crafty mother. Neither of them had any special religiousness. The difference :between them is the differ- ence between the good things in a bad •man and the :bad things in a good man, with their contrasted issues. Both of these youths began with the somewhat feeble religiousness of Isaac's tent. It took no hold upon Esau the profane and he became Ed- om. It took some hold upon Jacob, the crafty and he became I•srael.— (The 'Christian World Pulpit). In his youth Jacob bargained with Esau and obtained the birthright of the lattter. Later in life, aided by 'his crafty mother, Jacob deprived - Esau of his father's blessing, thus arousing his brother's angry passion to such an extent that Jacob on his mother's advice started on a journey. to his uncle's home in Mesopotania. That was a memorable journey. We cannot but pity the fleeting young man as we read of his making •pre- paratio f't'o spend his first night away from hoime -alone, in the open with a heap of stones for a pillow — a friendless and unprotected man. And let, to such a one, God ih His good- ness came—and came quickly — and comforted him •with the assurance of His presence and of His love, of His •ee{rn:panionship and of His abundant 'blessing. The vision at Bethel, was the first step in Jacob's divine edu- cation—the assurance which raised him to the feelings and dignity a a than. Here Jacob a_atned the knowl- edge for himself of the presence of a personal God. Jacob's vision came to him in a dream. But that sleep his fretful confused spirit grew_ tranquil and still; he lost himself-- the flurried, heated, uneasy self that he had brought with him" from. Beer- sheba, and while he slepf the hither- to unperceived Eternal came out soft- ly above and around him. We learn from this that God is near (1) when., we ,are not aware of it; (2) when sin is fresh, upon us• (3) when we are in urgent need ofHim. Jacob in this dream: was made to see that his whole life was ender the superintendence of God: "I will not' leave thee until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of." When Jacob awoke he uttered these words: "Surely the Lord is in this place; and I knew it not." And he was afraid, and said, "How dreadful is this place! This is none other but' the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven." It must have been the freshness of Jacob'•s sense of re- cent in, that made a spot so peace- ful seem to him a "dreadful" .plata. Everything takes its character from the conscience. Even a Bethel was awful, and ,a ladder of angels ter- rible, to a man whohad just been deceiving his father arid robbing his brother. The gates of our heaven are the places of our dread.—(Frotm The People's Bible). Henry Ward Beecher says: In his dream Jacob saw three things: (1) A way set up between earth and heaven, making a 'visible connec- tion between the ground on which he slept and the sky. (2) He' saw God, the supreme dir- ecting and inspiring force, eminent over all. From these we learn (1) that every man's ladder should stand upon the ground; no :man can be a 'Christian by separating himself from his 'kind; (2) along every man's lad- der should be seen God's angels; (3) high alcove all a man's plans, high above all his heroic moral resolves, there is to :be a living trust in God. for ent R of 0011 Sawtfkzo ,• A Great Change. "For !m a n y years,' had been troubled wit. h indigestion and any nerves," writes Mrs. Jno. Meehan, Calu, meet, Que. "I suffered onstantly. I tried many remedies, but ''without alining any relief. I• was unable to get any rest. I got a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to give them a trial. I soon saw a great change. Now I can go to bed and halve a good night's rest, and am able to do a day's work with any one. All I have to thank for it is Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, I would not be without them in the house." Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills are re- markably effective in cases like the above, :because they create new rich blood which supplies to' the nerves the very elements they need.

The trees •should be placed to give a setting , for the buildings, rather than hiding them. Their ultirtna'te size should be kept in mind in order that they will be spaced properly, and will not be too close to' the build- ings. As the roost hairs that take up food. from) the soil are at the end of the roots, care should be taken to pre- serve as many of these root hairs as possible. When moving trees in dry weather, the roots should be protect- ed by wet burlap or -blankets. In planting,, the hole should be suf- ficiently large to take the roots with- out cramping. Rich loasn should be well worked in around the root -.3. Some of -the branches should be re- moved to offset the loss of roots, and in pruning the final desired shape of the tree shoulld be kept insmind;such as the distance the lowest branch should be .from the around, 'The White elm, sugar maple, red maple, red oak, white ash and white oak are fine trees for planting in all rts. of S 'Ontario.

Murray, M.D. Crossing the river at Hamheung• is a bridge, the longest in Korea, called the Ten Thousand Year Bridge. It issaid that any 'one who walks across the river and back on the first day of Korean new year will have good luck throughout the year and live to a good old iage. Consequently crowds throng the bridge 'from daylight to midnight, and many -to ensure that no sickness nor ill fortune will befall them during the year, tie little pieces of their own and tt°e'ir children's gar- ments to the railings of the bridge, hoping to leave behind in these poor rags the spirits that would (bring trouble to their homes. :Many who hasre not yet accepted 'Christianity, especially among the ed- ucated classes, are losing faith in these superstitigns, but materialism often becomes their god. Most of the women still have faith in such ,practices and' often, in sickness or trou'.ble, look for help to gifts and food offered with many prayers to they lamer not whom. The old woman may be seen' pray- ing to the spirits..,as she ties her bit of rag to ,the raili;lgs of the bridge. Many thoi sands like her live thus, in dark superstition, knowing not the Heavenly Father who, claims them for His own, but waits for••us to make His entities !kno`wti to these, our sis- ters.

The Gaudiest Swindle in American Mining One of the most extraordinary and delightful frauds in the history of mining on this continent is recalled by an article of Herbert Asbury in the American Mercury. Fir's't public intimation that something extraord- inary was afoot was given when two weather -(beaten miners entered the Bank of 'California in San Francisco 'oneSummer day in 1871, and induced.. the receiving teller to accept a collec- tion of rough diamonds, emeralds, rubies and sapphires which they pro- duced from, a bag. These -diamond merchants . were Philip Arnold' and John Slack, and they remarked care- le§sly that they had discovered a dia- mond field. News of the curious de- posit spread quickly, and one of the first to hear of it was William C. Ralston, one of the wealthiest specff• lators of the period and interested in almost every .important promotion in the state. Ralston, with a friend, set out to find the two prospectors and eventually fount, theinu playing faro. At first' the prospectors were sus- piicious, refusing to give any informa- tion, but after several conferences they agreed to sell a half interest in their property to Ralston„and a com- pany he proposed forming. Naturally they would . not tell Where the diamond fields were to be found but they agreed that an investigation should be made by expert's, the only condition .being that the experts should have their eyes bandaged on their way ,to the mines from the railroad and again. on their way back from the Gol- conda. The experts ineluded David G. 'Colton, a mining engineer, and they returned from the inspection with more diamonds which they had picked up, and the ' most glodwine report of the wealth of the deposits. Within the next few days some of the most important men in the United States, including Horace Greeley, Gen. George B. McClellan and Charles Lewis Tiffany, founder of the famous jewellery house, joined the syndicate. Baron Rothschild was also a member. The agreement be- tween the uncouth prospectors and the city slickers provided that the (former should be paid $60,000 in cash and a further sum of $750,000 if further examination by expehts should be satisfactory, in return for which . they wouldturn over a half interest and virtual control of the diamond field,' This money was eventually paid them: and they were advised to get•• out since they were told they would be no match ' in business for the shrewd financiers who had interested themselves in the project, now as- suming proportions of the Comstock lode_ or the Kiimberley diamond fields. :Several other expert reports were made, all confirming the hopes of the ..investors. Tiffany received some of the diamonds and set ex- travagant estimates on them. Ral- ston and his associates were sup- posed to have gems worth $1,250,000 in their possession before they paid off Arnold -and Slack. It seemed im- possi. that they could lose. The .first 1 Id blast struck them when a geola .s't named Wilson was sent to do ,s6`n a work for the United States Geological survey in sSotithern Wyom- ing and carcase upon the supposed dia- mond field. At this time there were few competent geologists in the United States, and fewer still gem experts capable of vtaluating rough diamonds. But Wilson knew enough to see that there were no geological formations- which might indicate the presence of diamonds. He wandered over the field, 'however, and liike other investigators (was rew,,arded by ki'ck'ing up some diamonds and other stones. Unfortun'aieIr a close ex- amination showed upon one of there the :mark of a lapidary's tool. The truth suddenly emerged. The diamond field had been salted. Wilson returned sto civilization about the time the first repent: name from Baran Rothschild upon the 'diamonds •e'hipped Io 'him in London. They were practically worthless, known in the trade as nigger. heads. Later on the London dealer who had sold some $35,000 worth of•'them-and 46. e ,61 .r' • I A_ 410.
