The B. C. B. N. By. is constructing a
new line north and west from Worth

state, which will be completed within
the year. The country through which
the line passes is the best in Bouth-west
ern Minnesota, is practically all under
cultivation and thickly settled by well
to-do farmers who have been going fif
teen and twenty miles to market. Ar
rangements have been made to lay out
towns at the most advantageous loca
tions for business. These townB will
need stores and shops of all kinds and
merchants will find favorable openings
on this new line. Doctors and profes
sional men will also find good locations.

Syracuse is trying the interesting
experiment of a city municipal lodging
house. The city seeks thus to provide
for men out of work who are now too
often classed with vagrants and degrad-
ed by the associations of the public
station. In this house the lodger will
be provided with a bed and a light
breakfast for a period not exceeding
two weeks, when it is expected that the
applicant will have found work. For
this board the lodger will perform some
municipal labor on the street or else
where.
It has hitherto been held generally
that the man who has read about the
subject matter of a trial in court is dis
qualiiied to act as a juror in it. Three
states, Massachusetts, Kansas and Ten
nessee have now come to the conclusion
that this rule should be set aside, and
that previous knowledge of a suit need
not bar a man from a place on a jury,
but that general honesty and intelli
gence shall be the chief requirements of
that otlice. If the standard of intelli
gence in jurymen can be raised to a
point that will command refipect and
eotablish a confidence that justice will
be speedy and pertain, lawlessness will
decrease proportionately, and there will
be fewer lynchings which disgrace 10
many slates.
Thought* of a Dying Man.
For ruanj weeks I have been confined
at home, from which it Is probable 1
shall nt^e^KAVe.ab a living man, judg
ing from tlie conclusions of a consulta
tion of pliynicianB, who have considered
my case.
The thoughts upon immortality by
the same man when in normal health or
at the eve of dissolution, I have experi
enced to be entirely dissimilar. In the
first condition he speculates, analyzes,
criticises or re I els. In the Becond he is
content to leave the subject to the Su
preme Originator aud approach the end
without diBsent and in a bumble spirit.
IUB belief may be the result of instinct,
education or reason. It matters little
at that stage. The general opinion
concedes a Universal Power of prodigal
benfignity. That seems now suflicient
for me. "Perfect love caBtetb out fear."
The Power Superb in benevolence as
manifested in Its works, loves us and
should dissipate our fears, If we re
ciprocate that love by obediencetocom
mon-sense dictates and kindliness to
ward our fellows, we worship in act, if
not in words, and, with this conscious
ness of duty performed, our fears should
be dissipated.
The daily habit throughout lift ot the
contemplation of one's own death must
have a salutary effect upon the moral
actions of individuals, and as a great
change appears it can be entertained aB
an expected and tolerable, tf not an en
tirely welcome visitor. The universal
harmony which prevails in the mater
ial world seems but a glimpse, yet guar
antee of the celestial prospect guided
and adorned by the £ver Presence.
This faith should suflice for many aB
for me, and is my attitude toward my
approaching end.
For the rest to come to me,
For the hidden truth to see,
I am waiting,
For sky of silver bright,
For realm that has uo night,
For the source of Nature's 1'ght,
I am waiting.' *0 I

Simple Ifethod of Measuring Light.
In theBe days, when popular know
ledge of electrical subjects is undergo
ing quite an. appreciable extension,
many people are desirous of a simple
method of measuring the lighting
power of a tlame. The question how
many candle power a lamp has can be
settled without any great difficulty.
The surest results are obtained by
means of a grease spot. In its moBt
simple application the experiment can
be tried easily at home. A Bheet of
white paper, with a grease spot In the
center, is put into a frame and placed
between two flames of different light
ing power—for instance, between an or
dinary stearine candle and a kerosene
lamp. When the frame is equally dis
tant from the two unequally bright
liameB the
grease spot can be seen plainly
on both sides. By moving the frameB
with the sheet of paper slowly toward
the leBS bright light—that is, the stear
ine candle—it will arrive at a point
where the grease Bpot has apparently
disappeared on both sides of the paper.
This illusion always exists when an
equal lighting power prevails on both
sides of the paper, and there is no side
light. ThiB is the point at which to de
termine how much stronger is the light
of the lamp than that of the candle,
the candle Is twenty Inches from the
paper, and the lamp sixty inches, and
yet both sides of the paper are equally
bright, the light of the lamp will be as
strong as that of nine candles. The
calculation is based upon the distances,
the Uigures of which are multiplied by
themselves and then divided. In this
case, for instance, 60 multiplied by CO,
divided by 20 multiplied by 20, equals 9.
This of course, is a very crude method,
but it embodies the principle utilized in
the delicate measurements of the labor,
atories. The grease spot always re
mains the base of the modern instru
ments for measuring light, .whether
is replaced by milk, glass, or it appears
as an ideal grease spot in the place of
an uncovered point of the mirror. The
unit for measuring light is now the so
called Hefner candle. This candle con
sists of a wick saturated with acetate
amyl. Its flame has a height of forty
millimeters. It is used more particularly
when the sources of light possess
naturally a certain similarity. The
comparison of the power of red gas
light with that of white arc light or in
oandeeeent light is made most wwurate

Hour by hour
And day by day,
Be laid across our shoulders, and the future,

At Just one place,

There was a man rcho said one day
Unto himself: "Hereafter I ts.,*v
Shall not he base euough to say
A single word thai lb a lie.
The truth I'll tell to each anri all,
To high and low and great and ^mall."
And so he bravely started out.
Ills heart was strong, his spirit lold.
Of all the things he talked about
The truth, and nothing elso, was toldT
He seamed the tricks of speech through which
Men make themselves Adored and rich.
He told the nhole truth, nothing mon),

His face was battered up anc sore,
And ho was what Is called a sight.

Remember that name when you want
a delicious, appetizing, nourishing food
drink to take the place of coffee. Sold
by all grocers and liked by all who
have used it. Grain-0 is made of pure
grain, it aids digestion and strengthens
the nerves. It is not a stimulant but
a health builder and the children as
well as the adults can drink it with
great benefit. Costs about as much
as coffee. 15c. and 25c. per package.
Ask your grocer for Grain-o.
