To the seven ancient Russian sects which practice self -immolation, self- mutilation, or self -torture luta been added an eighth. It bears She strange title, "Raskol Shestidesya- tilietaitikh," which means. "Sect of othe mon aged sixty." Its main tenet is that all men who have reached the age of sixty are "called to God," and that their friends and relatives ought to assist them to obey the call. The casistance is given in the shape of throttling, crushing the skull, or dosing with chloroform. The police the other day arrested tho high-prieet o the soot a yenrig man named Zaboolkin, son of a rich house -owner of Saraeofi, on the Volga, Kabankin'a father recently disappeared. Kabankin junior paid he had gone On a pilgrimage to a, foreet cloister. Neighbors, how. ever, knew that the son was priest of the Sixty Sect, They began to talk, and finally the police found under Kabankin's bed a trap door which led to the subterranean tem- ple of the sect. It was a smail, gor- geously aleoarated chamber with ikons, prayer -books, and holy veisi eels ; also a case ofeteel instruments made for florae mysterious use. On pressure, Eabankin admitted that he had choked hie father, and buried him in a otable. Tim search brought to light an unrecognizable eornae. Kabankia is in jail and a search is being made for his followers, ivheao names he conceals. He ad- mits that the steel instruments are for inflicting death in queer ways, One is to equaah in the head, This has the effect (if. "relearaing the soul at, once." If blood is shed,the soul remains in the body,aaid tortures it for years, according to this revolt- ing belief.

Take the doetor, for ex- ample: He has to know a 'human body better than its very ()weer, and must earry in his „naiad, perhaps for years, littl0 penile that may be needed for future reference, Medi- cal memory is quite as ilUpQrtallt as medical knowledge. Every lawyer is cbliged to know, as a child knows its alphabet., tbe principles of law, and the judge must carry his train - <l memory even furthen.Natural- ly, clergymen must allow their mem- ories to run upon religious matters, and there are many divines who can literally repeat whole ohapters from the Scriptures, Each prefeeesion, eaeli busine.ss, has nee for a 133aU whose memory can be trained for the one purpese of applying it to the partieular vocation in whieh he is engaged. Meerschaum means sea -foam, and derives its name from the fact that it is sometimea found floating in the Black Sea. "Seo that Miss Milyues?

The Blue Nile flocd conies down be- tween the comparatively narrow banks with tremendous .swiftness. One night we went to bed with the river as usual. The boat was lying at the bottom of a high bank. Half- way up the bank we had a, thriving vegetable -garden, and from the windows of our house it was impos- sible to se,e even the top of the 'steamer's mast. When I waked the next meaning T. fancied for a mom- ent that I was the victim of a halite, cinaeion, for there, opposite the door of the house, awneg the steam- er at her anchor, The flood had ' come, and the .water had risen sev- eral" metera during the night. In connection with the coming of this Peed, I remember otme leeing out on a elmetIng expoaltion about the time when the, flood wag exPeet- ed, and camping in a dried. -up clan- nel of the than for the night, At daybreak I 'wog 'waked and:dimly by my servant, Who ishoole rite roughly, tellingAne hat 5he we rs were a, - most lipOtn Q4 Tha CAlf)r) \Val awake and already the men were bilge loading tins denkeYd nnsi„ out beienaingie AWan,to the south we eould hear aol1 roar, asef ., 1- ei,iters gradually ap- preach:rig, and we, all had an anxi- ious few minutes, until at last we were left high and dry, out of the reach of the highest flocd.. We must have looked a party of fools when the cause of the roar be- came aparent. Instead of a rush of water at our feet, the sky grew darker, and over aux heads, flying in the direction of the river, came millions of small birds going for their annual holiday to elle north. It was a, most. wonderful sight, and it inapretnecl me, as nutch as any- thing which I saw in the Sudan. ;Is TOUCHING THOSE TUNNELS. There are three famous tunnels which make it possible for the tra- veller to reach Switzerland through France and Italy—the Mont Canis, the St. Gothard, and the Simplon. The first of these was begun in 1857, and took throe years to complete. It is eight miles in length, and it octst over $1,000 a yard to construct. This was thought to hA3, venitable , , traumpli of engineering but the difficult tea en'e,ountereel in the build - of the St. Gothard wen) far greater. The tunnel was a. mile and a quarter longer than the Mont Ce- nis, and, of oourse, cost more in 'proportion. With regard to the Sim- plon Tunnel, which is the longest in the world, it was completed in 1906. Fortunately, in. its construction tho dent -rate was very low, as t o au- thontaes had lcarneal to 001221lieTWCt the effects el the enormous air -pros - sure. The tunnel took over eialit years to build, and is twelve and a quartet `miles long. Eleetric loco- motives haul:the frame through it. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDY *INTERNATIONAL LESSON, MARCH 10. Lesson X.—Jesus the Healer, Mark 1, 29-45; Matt. 4. 23-25. Golden Text, Matt. 5. 17. MARE 1. 29-45. Verse 29. And straightway—The scene of the events of this lesson is still Capernaum, where Jesus had cast out the unclean spirit from the unfortunate sufferer in the syna- gogue, The houae of Simou and Andrew --Their permaaent home. 30. Sick of a fever—Possibly ma- larial fever, which travelers report is atilt rife at certain seasons of the year in the plain in which Ca- pernaum is situated. Tell him cif her—Fully convinced that he would be able to help, 31. Took her by the hand and raieed her tip—Luke changes Marlea 'wording to "stood over her, and rebuked the fever." Tide wording in Lake would seem almost to imply tbat illness from fever was also attributed to spirit -possession. This inference, moreover, is borne out by Luke's words in the verse parhilel to the preceding, in which he speaks of Sireoe's wife mother being "holden with (held in the grip of) a fever." 82. At even, when the sun did set —After the cies° of the Sabbath day, which began and ended with sunset. All that were sick—From all parts of the city. Possessed with demona—Origin- ally the Greek ward here used for demon was applied only to the gods; gradually it became euatone- ary among the Greels to use it with reference to spirit, whether divine ar intermediary between gds and men, and ef tho latter regardleite al sahether they were good or evil. Only gradually was it applied to evil spirits, emissaries of Satan as , alietinguished from spirits emanat-, ing from the gods, In this later acme the word, as well as the con- cept, for which it stood, was taken over by Greek-speakinf, Jews, and , is to be understood in this Seil,SC here; as in most of the passages of i th.e New Testament in whiell it oc- cora. ., , ae- a ,, -8.4.' .t edanse tlity knew him—Many ancient authorities add to be the Christ; so also Luke (4, 41). At this early point in his public min- istry Jesus carefully avoided pro- claiming himself as the Messiah, nor did he permit siich proclama- tion either from friendly or un- friendly sources, If wo think of those to whom demon -possession is here attributed as suffering from .some form of mental derangement, it is easy to uhderstand how any slight suggestion of the supernatur- al power of jeeus would be aug- mented and magnified la their imagination. 35. A great while before day—The burden and strain of the day's work was not conducive to restful sleep; rather did it fill the mind of Jesus with a sense of his own need of strength and inspiration from the heavenly Father. Hence he hastens away before the house and city are again astir and seeks the solitude of a desert place, where he prayed. 36. Followed after hira—Appar- ently Simon was already familiar with the personal habits of Jesus, which included the observation of periods of meditation and prayer. 38, Into the next towns—The shore country about the Sea of Ga- lilee was thickly dotted with small villages between cities. For to this end came 1 forth — Jesus may have referred simply to his leaving Capereaum and not consenting to return at once, even though informed that all who had i . heard of his presence there were seeking him (verso 37). Another permissible interpretation is that he refers to the benevolent purpose of his life mission as a whole. 39. Preachieg and casting out de- mops—Hero clearly the expression "castieg out demons" must, be in- terpreted to include the healing of various kinds of diseases, 40. A leper --Leprosy was oee of the diseases the evil working of which could bt ecee and, measur- ably understood; hence lepaosy was not ascribed to demon -posses - sloe, Make mo clean—Disermie of every form, but aapecially the loathsome disease of leprosy, was regarded as punishment for eie committed althea by the sufferer himself or hie ina, mediate aneesors, Pereoes thue haa cy1;17‘37rivl:Inijiltmfil(ile';rtfe:;;Fitl?-1-101):e,7;g1n;;°1-: 41.

FORMATION OF CHARACTER. -- Requires Courage to Weigh Our Own Defects. To nothing in life, perhaps, is there directed so little thought as to the shaping of a career—the mold- ing of a character. 'Thousands of men and women around as live their indifferent lives, and pasa away without doing anything really worth while, failing to get out of life its best and most beautifel. We need not achieve, ivonderful thinga or be- come great personages high in the esteem of the world; it matters not whether we aro king or peasant, the ,stamp of merit is placed on those who give their whole -hearted atten- tion to whatever they undertake. Whether it be, the making of an in- tricate marvel of workmanship or the, execution of everyday 'duties. Whatever is a ssigned,te use Should call forth the best that is, in us. Let ,us not be afraid to exanaine our faults. It requires courage, certainly, to weigh our own defects and look them bravely in theface; but it is only by so doing that we may overcome them and cast them aside. Shall we be content to drift along without striving to rise above the, level of those who do not care? OUT character lies in our own hands. There is no one elee in the whole world who can make or mar it. We may be influenced of eourse by good Or evil associates,but with our - elves lies the uniform moulding of our career, We are the sculptors, our life is the clay, We can make it an indistinguishable mass of mater- ial or the masterpiece of a Michel Angelo.' Which shall we choose? REASSURING "MISS BLAKE." As they boarded the train they had every look of being a bridal.' couple, The young man carefully escorted the youei; woman to a seat while the interested passengers smiled indulgently, Then extending his hand to the supposed bride he said in a.very loud voice, "Well, Miss Blake, the train is about to pull out, T wisir you a very pleasant journee " and doffing his eoft hat, he hurried off the traie, The passengers looked disappointed, But the young woman seam,,,,, nervous, By tied by she called tho perter, and in a whisper gave him some myeterious erre ,fie (nem baeir la a moment, and Raid 15 voice audible Eo every one : 'Yo're all tight mn,saOi.
