The professor says that while examining some Austral asian natives arrested for killing a white man in Port Arthur, he found that one of the men had feet and ^ hands of exactly th& same shape and appearance as those if monkeys. Tha natives, on his inquiries, stated that in the hitherto unexplored regions between the rivers Daly and Victoria numerous people have similar hands and feet, and otherwise bear a strong resemblance to large monkeys.

When anybody asks Abel Hicks, sexton of the Bushby Orthodox meet ing-house, what he thinks about the probabilities for fair weather, Mr. Hicks gives his opinion with the air of one having authority. “ When I took my old bell-rope in hand last night to ring for the Chris tian Endeavorers,\ Mr. Hicks will say on occasion, “she’s squnched up dry as an old hone.

The first chart is a typical hot- wave map, and shows a \low” central in Montana and a “high\ on the South Atlantic Coast. These condi tions always cause southerly winds and warmer weather far in advance of the “low ; ” but only two or three days of warm weather may be ex pected when such areas drift rapidly eastward as usual. Occasionally in summer, however, atmospheric activities diminish to sueh an extent that areas similarly located remain nearly stationary for many days. As a result of laws explained in a preceding article, warm winds must then blow from the south or south east, where the pressure of the air is greatest, just as long as the posi tion of the “ high\ and the “low\ re mains unchanged. When these areas resume their normal eastward move ment, the hot wave soon terminates. Moist winds from off the Gulf of Mexico also cause a high humidity, which greatly adds to man's discom fort during a hot wave. The summers of 1901 and 1904 were among the most remarkable on record. Greater contrasts for the same season than these two years present can hardly be experienced. A study of the weather maps for July, 1901,. reveals nearly stagnant conditions over the greater portion of the United States during that month. The absence of decided dif ferences in the atmospheric pressure while for July, 1904, it was above ninety degrees only on one day. During July, 1901, the daily maxi mum temperature at Lincoln, Ne braska, was 100 degrees or above on twenty-one days. In connection with our subject we can very profitably consider the warm, dry wind that occurs on the eastern slope of the Rocky Moun tains. This remarkable wind is called the chinook. In Europe a similar wind is known as the foehn. The Chinooks prevail when a “ h i g h ” is crossing Utah and a \low” is passing north of the Dakotas. Easterly flowing winds result from such conditions, and as the air rises in crossing the mountains, its tem perature is lowered sufficiently to cause clouds and precipitation on the western slope. If these clouds did not form, the temperature of the ris ing air would decrease by expansion about one degree Fahrenheit fur every 183 feet of ascent; but when | clouds begin to form, f u r t h e r cooling is greatiy retarded by heat t h a t is lib erated as the vapor of the ascending air is changed into water-drops or ice crystals that compose the clouds. The heat thus liberated is the source of the great warmth of the Chinooks, since the ascending air reaches the mountain-tops much Average daily maximum temperatures (in degrees Fahrenheit) for July, 1901, and July, 1904, for the United States east of the Rocky Mountains, ns shown from Weather Bureau records at Atlanta, Geor gia; Bismarck, North Dakota; Columbus, Ohio; Denver, Colorado; Fort Worth, Texas; Binnoln.

The temperature of this descending air increases by compres sion at about the usual rate of one degree Fahrenheit for every 183 feet descent, and the Chinooks reach the valleys remarkably warm and dry, even in midwinter. Under their in fluence the temperature often rises forty or fifty degrees in a few hours. The clouds are left behind on the summit of the mountains, and clear skies prevail on the eastern slope— From Youth’s Companion. AUTOS FOR U. S.

Many persons adopt a vegetar ian diet on the ground that they do not like to feel that life has been taken to feed them, nor do they fancy the thought of eating dead meat. On the other hand, too great con sumption of partly cooked, starchy oats and wheat or white bread, pastry, etc., produces serious bowel troubles, because the bowel digestive organa, (where starch is digested), are overtaxed and the food ferments, producing gas, and microbes gener ate in the decayed food, frequently bringing on peritonitis and appendi citis. Starchy food is absolutely essen tial to the human body. Its best form is shown in the food “Grape- Nuts,” where the starch is changed Into a form of sugar during tho pro cess of its manufacture. In this way, the required food is presented to the system in a pre-dlgested form and is immediately made in«.o blood and tissue, without taxing the diges tive organs. A remarkable result in nourish m e n t is obtained; the person using Grape-Nuts gains quickly in physical anS mental strength. Why in men tal? Because the fooh contains del icate particles of Phosphate of Pot ash obtained from the grains, and this unites with, the albumen of all food and the combination is what nature uses to rebuild worn out cells in the brain. This is a scientific fact k that can be easily proven by ten w days’ use of Grape-Nuts. “There’s a ‘ The Road to W e l U l l l e \ in POSTAL AUTOMOBILES IN USE AT MILWAUKEE. caused what is known as a “ flat\ map; nevertheless for many days the barometer was sufficiently low in Montana and high over the South At lantic States to cause light southerly winds and one of the severest hpt waves ever experienced in the United States. On the contrary, the maps during July, 1904, and, indeed, for the en tire summer, show a condition of un usual atmospheric activity. Well-de veloped “highs\ and “lows\ passed eastward across the United Staten with great regularity, and northerly winds and anti-cyclonic conditions prevailed quite as often as southerly winds and cyclonic conditions, thus effectually preventing a single wide spread hot wave.

The Suburban Gardener. Jones had a vegetable garden in which he took a great interest. Brown, his next door neighbor, had one also, and both men were espe cially interested in their potato patches. One morning, meeting by the fence, Jones said: “ How is It, Mr. Brown, you are never troubled with caterpillars, while my bushes are crowded with them ? ” ” My friend, that is easily ex plained,” replied Brown. ” 1 rise early in the morning, gather all the caterpillars from my bushes and throw them Into your garden.”— T it- R ite Subject: The Golden Calf, Ex. 32:1-8, 30-35— Golden Text, 1 John •>: i 21— Memory Verses, 34, 35— j Commentary. Moses was up on the mount plead- I ing with Jehovah for Israel and Israel ' knew it. But in the perversity of their hearts the people for whom he plead and for whose welfare he was so solicitous deliberately denied any knowledge of his whereabouts. It was an altogether ignoble action. But we have seen its like since the days of Moses and perhaps we shall wit ness it analogy again. The lesson of the golden calf has a meaning and a warning for our gen eration. It has a particular lesson for America. If there is any one t h ing more than another that has made the American civilization and prosperity of to-day it is the providence of God and the willingness of Americans in the gen erations t h a t have passed away to be led, in some measure, by Him. The root of righteousness t h a t has always been active and heard among this people with reverence and respect, is at the bottom of our national success. Whatever success we may have achieved as a free people may be ac credited largely to the potency of that righteousness among, us which exalteth a nation. That is to say that America owes its success and its international preferment to the guidance and the grace of God. A careful student of history cannot conclude t h a t the momentous discov ery of these western lands simulta neously with the regeneration of hu man ideas and ideals in Europe was simply a coincidence. It was provi dential. It was divinely planned and divinely led. Likewise no careful student of American history can come to another conclusion so valid as this that, the progress of these United States is founded upon the grace of God and the underlying purpose of this people to keep close to His law. But some very superficial observ ers of the trend of events would seem to have it otherwise. To read the industrial reports one would be led to think that the industries and the railroads and the balance of trade of this country are the fundamental bases upon which our prosperity is built. If we believed the politicians the central mainspring of all national prosperity is to be found in political systems. Some eminent millionaires would evidently have us believe that they are the real leaders of the peo ple on the march to greatness, power and plenty. A man coming from aforeign shore to New York for the first time would be pardoned if he assumed as he gazed upon our temples of commerce and of finance t h a t we worshiped un adulterated materialism instead of the true and holy God. For among many peoples the shrines and the temples which they have dedicated to the service of God are the dominat ing feature of the town and country side. And too largely for her own good America is erecting a golden calf. And our calf is prosperity and mate rial success. These be the gods some say t h a t have made America. And sc we perpetuate evils that prosperity may continue for a season. And so we postpone reforms and reforma tion for fear that in effecting neces sary changes we may endanger om prosperity for a time. There is no worse idol worship than this. There is no idol worship more insidiously dangerous than this. For it is the deification of money, of material suc cess, above the right. To worship the calf of prosperity is to exalt oppor tunism. And this calf is not a dream call with many men. It is not a mere academic conception. It Ls all to sad ly a reality with many men. For there is many a man who would glad ly reform the social order did ho not fear t h a t In the process of revolution however cautiously It might be car ried on he would suffer in bis world ly estate. Many a man there is wbc is heartily disgusted with the state of things as they are who is unwilling to lose a little himself that the larger cataclysm which is sure to come a£ surely as we delay to mend our ways may be averted and the fortunes o) the coming generations more effi ciently conserved. And such a man perhaps unconsciously, but more of ten consciously, worships the golden calf of prosperity. America needs to recognize that God is at the centre of her being and the motive of all her phenomenal suc cess. She needs to acknowledge Hii sovereignty and her indebtedness tc Him. She needs to exalt Him and proclaim her fealty to Him. She needs to assert her allegiance to H4 prophets and to ally herself with His righteousness. For our prosperity is not the gift of men but the gift of God. We are entirely the architects of our fortunes. We should not b< able to be the architects of them a; all were it not for the beneficence oi the living God. We do not exist apart from Him and we cannot be securt apart from Him. In Him we live and move and have our being is a truism but it is one that we might well pon der. For it states tersely the ulti mate fact in life. May God grant us never to forget it. May we exalt Hln; and serve Him and love Him mors than life itself. The Polite Pupil.

MISS HULDA KUGHLER There is a beauty and attractive ness in health which is fur greater than mere r e gularity of feature. A sickly, irritable, and complaining woman always carries a cloud of depression with her; site is not only unhappy herself but is a damper to all joy and happiness when with her family and friends.

If a woman finds t h a t her energies are flagging and t h a t everything tires her; i f her feminine system fails to perform its allotted duties, there is nervousness, sleeplessness, faintness, backache, headache, bearing-down pains, and irregularities, causing constant misery and melancholia, she should remember that Lydia E.
