Then cultivate .n your hearts cheerfulness, content- ment, and kindness. They are the greatest of beautiffers. No paints or powders can give the winsome, beau- tiful glow to the cheek, the sparkling challming glint to tile eye, or the lithe and. graceful carriage to ,the body which these impart; but dcta't flirt; don't be vain; don't be obtrfisive. Modesty gives special charm to beauty, and usefulness conceals many defects of form. 'An ancient English poet set forth "A Fair Lady's Wish" in the following sensible lines: "If it 'be true, celestial powers That you have formed me fai�l And that in all my vainest hours My mind has been my care; Thoi, in return, I beg this grace, As you are ever kind, What envious time takes from my fa:)p . Bestow upon my mind." Busy at What? It is a great mistake to be so busy that we have not time to do the things make this wrong choice, yet many a one does go. "The King's Bliswiess" is meant to be every one's chief busi- ness, and may be; "seek ye first the Kingdom of God" was not an impos- sible command. But how many of us crowd life so full of the things that die the day they are done that there is no thhe or strength left for the things that live and that bring life to the doer� We may have to g � ivo tbe gfeater number of hours in the day to what we call our secular duties. But there never was a day in the life of any child of God in which God's Kingdom could,not have been consciously sought as the chief inter. est in that day. and thereby -some moments found for the advancing of that, Kitagdom. When our da-ys arc busiest with fhe pressurd 'of this world's cares, we most need to remain- ber the Kingdom that has first claim on our life. -Sunday School Times. _. The Heavenly Places, .

' We wore thin underclothing of pure wool, thick woollen gray shirts, nocker- chiefs, stout knickers with long stock - Ings, and canvas leggings over a pair of ankle larrigams, which wore made to fit closely by wearing an extra pair of socks. We also wore our canvas shoot- ing coats, which, thoVugh noisy, We soon found were excellent f or smashing through the killing Nova Scotia thicket, and there is no reason for especial quiet when after Wild cats, with a hound. Hardly had we landed when the hound began to whine and howl and sitiff the air en--orly, Uncle Ned nearly lost him by an unexpectedly hard and sudden tug on the chain, but recovered and lot the dog drag him ton yards up the carry, where, sure enough, a fresh Wildcat track led directly across the path. Uncle Ned hung on to, Range only long onough to make sure of the freshness of the track, and the next moment the merry music was echoing through the frosty air; "Owl Owl 0 -0 -0 -0 -Owl Owl" Jack and I started to dash Into the thicket after the hound, but'Uncle, Ned restrained us.

We are apt to think of the dust that the air contains in greater or less quantities as simply an annoyance, and perhaps a source of disease, but the researches of scb�,ntists 3mve of late years revealed atmoripheric dust to us in now likhts. . It appears that when the airs 'is very thick and hazy it may ocoataln. dust particles to the number of from 10,000 to 20,000 in every cubic contt- metro, while a cubic contimetre of very clear air may contain only from a dozen lip to a few hundred particles. The observations of the best author. ities indicate that there is a relation between the quantity of dust and the temperature of the air. A great amount of dust, it is averred, inoreas- es the temperature in the daytime and checks the fall of tomperature at might, says the Philadelphia Record. The reason apparently 'is that the presence of dust serves as a obstruo. tion to the free radiation of heat through the air, The sunbeams pass through very pure, clear air without lending much heat to it, and at night the heat received by the ground dur- -' 5ig the day readily escapes through , the saine. air but if the atmosphere I is heavily laden -with dust the sun's rays are partially arrested by the par- ticlos which, becoming heated, in turn warm. the air, and in like manner beat radiated from the earth at night Is retained in the hazy layers of air in contact 1vith Its surface'. Without Its atmosphere, which servos as it coverlet to protedt It against the fearful cold of space" the surface of the earth would be fiozon liko that of the airload moonBat the latest researches seem to &w tilat the boautiful atmospheric blanket wrappod round 'our plilkaot varies In its power to retain heat in proportion to tile ainount of dust particles it contains. .
