Out of this slough the new Sultan

Many critics give ]Ism credit for a

It as infamous. Whatever the true
estimate, it is a fact that the Turkish
empire increased Its power. Schools

The Inertness of Nitrogen.
Nitrogen, a colorless, • odorless,
tasteless gas, and the most abundant
element known existing in a free and
uncombined state, Is absolutely essen-
tial to plant and online' life and of
the utmost importance in _art and in-
dustry.
Theatm p etas os h i tae last s . eser-
s
oir from which nitrogen is drawn to
form active nitrogeneous compounds.
While the - air, we breathe consists of
four-fifths nitrogen and one-fifth
oxygen, these two gases are not com-
bined but only intimately mixed, and
the great bulk of the nitrogen plays
onlyAPas
passive
part.
`
When we fill our
longs the oxygen
of the airrevives and purifies our
blood and in so doing combines with
carbon to form the compound known.
as carbon 'dioxide, which is expelled
when we exhale, Nitrogen, however,
enters and leaves our lungs un-
changed.
In the one insta=nce , it is the yery
inertness of nitrogen 'which makes it
o`£ the greatest value; for if the oxy-
gen of the air -were not greatly diluted
with this inactive gas all mankind
would soon perish of overstimulation.
Moreover, corrosion aitd decay would
take place with appalling rapidity,
tY
,
and combustion would be so en
a
c -
ed that what is soar a iaarmt€ss fire
would become an, uncontrollable con-
flagration, destroying all oxidizable
substances, including iron, and steel.
Nitrogen, therefore,
when uncotu
-
bind with other eleln,ents, is an ex-
tremely :.Uactive substance, Its main.
desire (if, we :may soexpress it) is to
he let alone and for centuries it re -
o n to c ole
re-
sisted every effortf uta aj ,
to
wheedle or force it into combination
with other elements. But when final-
ly combined with or wedded to other
elements, nitrogen produces very ac-
tive compounds so important that our
existence depends upon them.—Amer-

was served, when Mrs. Carr read a
beautiful address to the guests of the
evening, and M,rs. David Fioody made

Mr and Mrs Chas. H. Geese
81yth,
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Beese:
The members and adherents of the
Blyth Methodist Church are called upon
at this time to bid you farewell. It is
with sincere regret that we must sever
our relationships with you, which have
been the most intimate and cordial during
all tbese years. You have both been
very cioeely identified with every branch
of our church .iib, and have filled every
office given you with such faithfulness
and ability that you will be greatly miss-
ed. Every institution is dependent on
good leadership for its successful co op-
eration and especially in the Sunday
School, W.M.S. and Official Board have
you shown special aptitude and progress-
iveness, as the condition of the Societies
at the present time indicates. Not only
in your Church affiliations have your lives
counted tor good, but in society in genet=
al you have laboured for the betterment
ofthe community. You have both offer-
ed your best aidin all patriotic enter-
prises, Red Cross work, and with every
good office of citizenship'. Not only will
your loss be felt as a Church but as a
community we are saying good bye to
two of our best citizens, In token of our
every tenderest regard and tie of our sin -
meat affection, we ask you to receive
this silver service, and may it prove a
little memento of all the old friends in
Blyth, and of all the good old days you
spent here,
With this we couple our best wishes
for a ver
happy Py and prosperous s career;
-and may the years as they unfold, reveal
more and more the abounding fulness of
thegraee and blessing of our Heavenly
Father,, Whose we are and Whom we
serve.
,Signed on behalf 'of, the Societies of the
Church.
