Mary Baker O. Eddy has turned over to three trustees all of her estate except har horns, Pleasant-view, and the control of two tenements In Boston that she owns. The deed of trust was executed by Mrs. Eddy on March 6 last after suit had been brought by three of her relatives, as her next friends, for an accounting; against those who had surrounded her and who had mana ged her affairs. In the Superior Court for Merri mack county attorneys representing these trustees replying to the suit of the "next friends" moved for "leavo to tntevene and be substituted as plaintiffs In place of said next Mends", Qeorge V. Glover, Mary Baker Glover and George W. Baker, ha their suit against Calvin A. Frye, Alfred Fallow, Irving C. Tomllnson, Ira O. Knapp, William B. Johnson, Stephen A. Kimball, Hermann S.

Mental Process That Dees Much Ta ward Mitigating Life'a Weea. We are all somewhat in the habit of divorcing the idea of speculative thought from that of usefulness, and of considering It a dreamer's va gary without which the world would progress along Its accustomed and predestined route. It Is particularly the habit of set and elderly persoaa to speak with scorn of schools of thought, methods of careful prepara tion for life, and of abstract con sideration of values. They insist that the world was better off when peoplp did things and thought less about them. The difficulty In leaving ourselves to act without preparatory thought Is, that It finds us prepared only for such events as have taken place be fore within our experience or within the experience of those we have talked with or read of; whereas we are likely to be plunged at any mo ment Into a new set of circumstances or given a new lot of conditions and motives which alter the most appar ently similar cases. Then, Indeed, for lack of the habit of speculative thought, of weighing motives and rallies, we are apt to drown In our own absurdities or worse, commit hideous Injustice. Odd as It may seem, the end of spe culation Is practice, says Harper's Weekly. The process may seem wasteful and futile, but the results, If one examine them, are worth tho energy spent; and the lives we see about us, lived without the directing of abstract thought, ure warnings ac cepting the cheap and easy ways of life. To turn back to the value of specu lative thought, Its first use Is to teach the body Its place In the trlunlty, which is a human being. It looks at life with new eyes and weighs values; It undertakes to find out what Is truly the heart's desire wine, laughter, lust, longing, prayer, hope or peace. Once we know what object we are pursuing, once we have turned spe culative thought free upon the uni verse, and made up our winds what Is worth while, then, with our sense of values fixed, we know where to direct effort; what makes for the end Is worth while, and what gives mere momentary ease is negligible. This search for the real aim, this close examination Into the trend of our thoughts, this speculative atti tude toward proportionate values do much toward mitigating the woes of life, for they open the doors to love and wisdom, the doniinators of des tiny. Love and wisdom annihilate melodrama, avert tragedy, soften grief, rob joy of selfish and aggressive noise; they regulate conduct so that it ceases to be self-seeking and in jurious; they widen The mental hor izon, and Infuse tolerance and Justice. And when love and wisdom stand upon the threshold, letting their light shine in upon the little turmoil of life, how small and silly see mour cower ing fears, our greed and cruelty and selfwlll as they lurk In the corners, eager to escape the light. Speaking Through the Nose. The offenslveness of the present defect could not be exaggerated, per haps, but it is best to guard against exaggeration in dealing with it, writes William Dean Howells, in Har per's Bazaar. Not long ago we talked with an observant Englishman, who was hardly the most willing of wit nesses, but a just as well as a gentle spirit, and we asked him if he had been much struck by our far-famed nasality since coming among us. No, he said, not half so much as he had expected; but what he, had no ticed was that we spoke drawllngly, draggingly, In tones that weakly and tardily did their office. It seemed to use, when we thought the matter over, that there was a great deal of truth in what he said, and we now commend his remark, to gether with our own less lenient ac cusations, to the attention of the American Woman's Speech Reform ers. What they want to get at is the average offense, and not to err as to lis precise nature. There Is no doubt that certain of our women twang, and whine, and whiffle, and whinny, but possibly close Inquiry might develop the fact that, after all, it may bo lazy and careless mismanagement of the voice in the sort suggested which is most to be corrected. Crescent Shaped Viennese Bread. The origin of that Viennese bread shaped like a crescent, which Is found In most places on tho continent, dates back to 1G83. At that time the Austrian capital was being besieged by the Turks under the terrible Grand Vizier Kara Mustapha, and as they failed to take the city by assault they doe'ded to dig a passage under tho walls, anl so penetrate Into the town. In the daytime tho noise of the slege made the sound of the tunnel lino; Inaudible and at night time the defenders of the place were asleep, all but the sentries and the bakers. It was the bakers who, as they baked the bread for the garrison, heard tho p!ckr.xs of the miners coming neurer and nearer and gave the alarm. Tn the fighting of the Bilkers' Association took their shure with the utmost bravery, and na a reward for their services the emperor gave them per mission to mako a Fnerlal cake shaped like tho Turkish crescent.

OLD TIME SIMPLICITY. Woman's Reply to Charges That Wedded Life Is a "Failure" Still Holds Good Idleness Is Fatal. Carelessness of Partners Horns Lifs Dying Out. Persons who profess the Christian religion must keep in their hearts a green spot wherein the sanctity of marriage is preserved as a natural law from which there Is no receding. Marriage has been from the begin ning, and must last Indisputably until the very end, and let us hope that It Is not In all cases a "failure," says Theresa Corletta in San Francisco News Letter Dec. 15, 1888. It Is we, the Inhabitants of this world, who are failures, not the Insti tution, which is the only one out of which law and order can spring. There are two sides of the question to be discussed. In the past we may remember that marriage was looked upon as a holy alliance; one to be entered Into after mature deliberation and only under fortuitous circumstances. A man would as soon have thought of puteing his head in the fire as asking a wo man to he his wife unless he had a comfortable home to take her to. Husbands found pleasure in hoine life long ago, and when tired, after the professional or business employ ments of the day, would ask no greater happiness than to pass their long, happy evenings with their wives; or when little voices and pat tering feet echoed through hall or cottage, to gather the children around the winter fire and gambol with them on flower-scented lawn or grass-carpeted fields. . lxing ago, the thought of which conies to us who have seen it like the reflection of a bright dream, wife and children looked eagerly for the coming of the beloved parent, whose image held sway In each heart dur ing absence, and each married woman felt happy In her wifehood, glorying In the Joy of her home. Men did not startle the world with the theory they promulgate today, that they "won't be owned." They were happy to be owned by good and faithful wives, and even the youngest men were not satisfied until they had their own firesides. Families went to church together and brought up the little ones In the right way, and no one was ever heard to discuss the possibility of marriages being a failure." Things are different today. Just as soon as a girl leaves school she is on the outlook for a "man with money," no matter how old the gen tleman may be, if he can give her diamonds and those other accessories for which the woman of today seems solely to live. , The woman who marries a man In medium circumstances only would scorn to "keep house." No, indeed; she wants a "good time." She boards, and here hef first troubles commence. To be boxed up day by day with one person, with only the one room, or even suite, except meal hours, to cafl their own, would lead the most dv voted couple to the brink of suicide. Caged up in this way, every little foible and fault stands out In bold relief, and man and woman both grow weary and arrive at the con clusion to each "go their own way." It Is not the marriage tie that Is in any way a failure. Why should it be more so now, In the enlightened nine teenth century, than it was in the days of darkness and superstition? There can be no reason, except that possibly we are growing too much enlightened, educated too much, and yet too little. It is "the people of the people" who are slipping back, who are satiated with the wine of pleasure, the people who do not grow from Infancy to youth slowly, and from youth to age, In temperate pleasure, but who are born babies only to be thrust by their silly parents Into the caps and gowns of womanhood ere their second teeth are cut. While men and women live in a round of pleasure, over-sensual, over bearing, having no religion or sense of decorum, hew can wedded love live. In such an atmosphere? If husbands and wives do not lovo deeply enough to live for each other, renouncing tho frlvoltles of life for the serene Joys of home, why marry at all until they have sobered down and feel the need of rest. , There Is nothing the matter with marriage, It Is today as it has ever been, but the peoplo are different, different in their Ideas, In their af fections, In everything, and, forget ting their own shortcomings, tlry lay their grievance on the shoulders of marriage, and by their own incom petence make it a "failure." But woe to us when marriage is wiped out. , Bible Society Reports. The annual report of the American Bible Society gives encouraging Indi cations relative to tho religious life of the Philippines.

MISSION WORK IN HAWAII. Educational 8yttem Results of th Labor of the Missionaries. Most Americans will admit that It was fortunate for the predominance of American civilization In Hawaii that the American Missionaries were the first on the ground and were thoroughly established there in " ranee of any competing religiou, says the Honolulu Advertiser. They brought the rugged old tenets of their Puritan ancestors. They taught them with Intense conviction and flaming zeal. They soon established complete ascendancy over the mind Of chiefs and people. In 25 years their labors had converted the social system of Hawaii from barbarism to civilization; its political, from despot ism to constitutional liberty. Hawaii thus became a welcoming home for civilized enterprise and free American activity In time for the new California era In the Pacific. The numerous minion families with their churches and schools formed a fav oring nucleus for the establishment of a growing white community of h high social order, the parent of the delightful social status now found on all the Islands. Conspicuous among the leading fruits of missionary labor Is our splendid system of education which reaches every child of whatever race, guiding him Into familiarity with Eng lish, and upward toward free educa tion In the high school. And here It Is simply due to recognize the effici ent cooperation of the Roman Cath olic mission. Although of French race,, those good men and women have applied themselves with zval and ability to the promotion of Eng lish education. To attest this Is the great St. Louis College, in which a corps of highly trained Americas brothers for many years have educat ed many hundreds of successful pu pils. Also the Convent of the Sacred Heart, where the sisters have given pure and graceful culture to many hundreds of Hawaiian girls. The mission also supplies a most wholesome supervising and parental Influence In our large Portuguese com munity, whose orderly and Industri ous character Indispensably needs such supervlslno and nurture. In this and other ways the strong police power of the Catholic pastors be comes of high public value. The Protestant churches make the claim of upholding a higher standard of domestic, and social life, after th New England rather than the French patterns. As an example It was claimed during the epidemic of chol era 10 years ago In Honolulu that owing to their superior Intelligence and more sanitary home life no case of cholera appeared In any household of the Protestant church members. But we believe that every Protestant worker would readily admit that th competition of the Catholic religion has been to them a wholesome stimu lus to pastoral activity and antidote to sluggish proclivities. The two types of the Christian religion are evidently destined to a long continu ance in Hawaii. Raising Blue Foxes In Alaska. But one litter Is born each year, and that In May, says Forest and Stream. The number of cubs ranges from four to as high as eleven. The average number that reach maturity is about two or three to the female. The fox lives and brings forth Its young in a burrow or den about like that of a red fox, except that the blue fox Is very fond of digging under the buildings on the Islands. If there Is a floor they are sure to have one or two dens under it if permitted to do so. They will also den under suitable piles of old lumber, logs or trash of any kind that will keep the water off. They are very suspicious of any person or thing coming near thetr burrows. If they are at all disturbed while their pups are young, they are said to move their young to another burrow. This is one reason why it is a bad plan to keep cattle on the same Island with or on that part of the island frequented by the foxes and used for burrows. They nre not quarrelsome or vicious like other foxes. In close confinement they will kill and eat one of their own kind that Is Injured or weak and I sup pose if starved to it would eat each other. It Is difficult to learn very much about their habits where they are running loose on an island. They now and then have "scraps." Let a fox go where he does not belong and you wll soon hear a great racket. You will think a fox was being killed and if in sight will soon see one getting away as fast as possible, yclplnj like a whipped dog. Colors That Cure Consumption. The value of light as an agent !:j curing diseases is becoming increas ingly recognized. The latrst develop ment of tho idea is the assertion of a medical man that the clothes worn by consumptives should he of a color which will allow the light to pene trate he body. White materials, it Is found, are best for this purpose, and consumptives are consequently advised to clothe themselves in snowy raiment, either of linen, velvet, cotton, or cloth. Silk, however, la barred. Next In curative value comes blue, but It Is far Inferior to white. Materials of black, red, yellow, or green are said to be useless, as they prevent the passage of the germicidal rays. London Exchange.

The hill Is a tulle long, and to const down It lakes, on an average, sixty-seven seconds. The Cresta course, as It In called, Is Iced and runs between snow banks. Its turns are dangerous, and only skilled coasters venture on It They use the American flat toboggan, lying on the stomach, and steering itol with the feet, but with lift nnd Jerk of the body. A few seconds from the start on this course the coaster Is go ing at a speed of twenty miles an hour. This speed soon Increases to forty miles. Faster and faster he files, swooping doTn the precipitous Church leap at the speed of uu express train, and then on to the long, straight Shut tlecock run. To fifty, to sixty, to sev enty, to eighty miles an hour the pace grows till It Is like the flight of th swiftest bird through a blinding blur of snow. Yet tho speed still Increases, nnd at the end of the Shuttlecock eighty-seven miles an hour Is register ed. These Cresta course speeds are not problematical; they are the accu rate timings of an electric clock. Don't Know Right From Left. "The tiling that surprised me most when I began to teach," said the In structor of a class of adults in manual training, "was the number of people who can tell Instinctively the right hund from the left Fully a third of my pupils hesitated a moment before obeying Instructions to do this tiling or that thing with the right hand or the left. Tho thing that fixes the proper band In their minds flimlly Is some In cident In which that iRind lias figured. By recalling that story they know which hand to use. One of the bright est women I know lu this town de Clares that the only way she can tell oue hand from the other Is to remem ber the time when, ns nhlld, she tried to milk a cow nnd was sent flying heels over head. She approached the animal from the wrong side, and the picture of tho position of her right hand then Is so vivid that it enables ber to distinguish that member to this lay." Xew York Tress. Old Style Europesn Elevators. The old stylo elevntors In continental hotels are attached to solid steel shafts which move to and fro In hollow cyl inders like pistons. These "lifts" are operated by hydraulic pressure nnd, though slow, nre absolutely safe. They are Intended to carry passengers only npward, the presumption being that guests can easily descend the stair cases. A guest therefore enters tho car on the ground floor, telling the at tendant which story Is his destination. On arrival the car stops, the doors elide open, and an Iron gate also opens, giving access to that floor, tho several movements being automatic. The pas senger closes the Iron gate, which sig nals the operator below, who reverses tho movement of tho "lift," whereby It returns to the ground floor. The newer hotels have elevators like ours that carry passengers both ways with ra pidity. Travel Magaziue. The Grindstone. A grindstone should bo true on Its face. If It Is not so, broad, flat tools are liable to be spoiled. The remedy for a grindstone that has lost Its even ness is to place a Hat Iron bar with n sharp edge on the supporting beam In such a manner that It will strike th,, uneven part of the sioi.e at every revo lution tiutll the desired form Is ngiiu regained. It Is uecessary that a stun.; should be kept wet when In use or It would draw the temper of the tool ofter a few revolutions, but It in not a good plan to allow the lower portiuu to rest in water wbeu idle. The water soaks that portion and softens It, ami It soou gets "out of true," and thu commences a course of troubles which Is pretty hard to either remedy or stay. Shot For Interrupting Suicide. Memphis, Tenn., March 25. Inter rupted In an evident attempt to com mit suicide, Charles Wallace, a sa: loonlst, shot and seriously wtfinded his brother-in-law, J. E.

Wallace then turned the weapon upon himself.
