THE American Manufacturer, in-giv-ing its reasons why iron and steel are cheaper, says: ‘“ln the United States the greatly reduced cost of iron_and steel has resulted chiefly ifrom the largely increased use of machinery,not only improved machinery to do what machinery did years ago, 'but to do what labor did at that time. It is reduced labor cost, the result chiefly of new methods and improved machinery, that has reduced the cost of production in iron and steel.” .
KATe FierLp’s Washington says that some genius has devised for sleeping cars a system of beds made of rubber bags, which are to be stretched over steel frames and inflated with hot air from the locomotive.

Such beds, it is claimed, would be cheaper, lighter and more comfortable than those made now, and could be tucked away in fer less space when not in use. ' : 1

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. ———ee— International Lesson for March 31, 18DF —First Quarterly Review. [Specially Arranged from Peloubet's Notes.] GOLDEN TEXT—-Take my yoke upon you and learn of me.—Matt 11:29.. ‘We should briefly review the whole life of Christ up to this time, as well as the year under speeial consideration. Keep the different portions in mind, with the dates. Note how long was the period of preparation (thirty years) for three and one-half years of work. Note how much more full the report of Christ's life grows with each added year., The epochs or steps in the development of the .work and kingdom of Jesus should be kept distinctly in mind. Learn this by heart, so that each event of the life of Christ may find its place and be instructive, not only in itself, but ir its relations to the whole life and mission of our Saviour.
. PROGRESSIVE REVIEW. nht e Rev. E. Blakeslee, in his Teacher’s" Manual for his Studies in the Life of . Christ, makes some excellent sugges- t tions for a review, which can best be begun with the befim;ing of the quarter, and carried out gradually to the end. He proposes that each scholar, or the class as a whole, make a harmony of the life of Christ from the Gospels, and illustrating it with unmounted photographs, which can easily be obtained of dealers. ‘“Many persons have done this work with very great satisfaction, and by the use of maps cut out of books and papers, or drawn by :themselves, unmounted photographs, and other illustrations, have made most valuable and attractive books. In making such' a book the best plan is to use sheets of heavy paper, stiff enough not to be wrinkled by the paste, and then to bind them into book form, or tie them loosely together after they are finished. The best paper for thisgpurpose is unruled writing paper, such as is used for :ledgers, and which can be procured at any stationer’s. The paper should be «cut into sheets about nine and one-half by twelve inches in size, which will give ample room to insert parallel passages side by side, and for marginal no%es.” : . PLACES AND ILLUSTRATIVE OBJECTS. In the bright little paper, the Child’s Hour, is given the following capital. plan for studying the geography of the United States, which can easily be adapted to the life of Christ. £ ‘““The map of the United States, and | the products of the different parts of the country were laid in the right ‘places. There was a bit of coal for Pennsylvania and Ohio, wheat along the Mississippi valley, copper near ' Lake Superior and gold in California. ' ‘“Another way to make a ‘product map’ is to cut out the separate states i from a large railroad map; or an old atlas, and as you study about each one paste it on a large sheet of stiff paper, ‘and fasten on:the thing's which will ' show the industries and productions of that region. 4 “Here is an account of such a map, written by a teacher who has tried it. She says: ‘‘On the day for the study of Maine the map of said state should’ be pasted on upper right-hand corner of the paper. Several boys will, 'doubtless, ' be found to yolunteer to = whittle out a tiny Dboat, which should be:.cut in two in the length, leaving a flat surface for attaching tothe ocean southeast of Maine. Toothpick masts, paper sails and flag complete the matter, and the children have learned that shipbuilding is an occupation of Maine, and most heartily enjoy the lesson.’ Rafts-eflumber formed of tiny twigs, held together by headless pins, float merrily down the Penobscot; and whatever products are to be taught are gummed to the map. * ‘When New Hampshire is taken up, it is carefully joined to Maine, and so on, one by one, till the union is complete. - Tie
- In some such way we can study Christ’s life and travels in Palestine; a ship for the sea of Galilee; a well for Shechem; a temple for :Jerusalem, and a small roll of the law; a cradle and a star for Bethlehem, and a grain of wheat to show that Ruth lived there; a dove where Jesus was baptized; sands for the wilderness of temptation; a cup for Cana; a carpenter’s tool for Nazareth. ]
JOURNEYS gITH JESUS.
“‘lf the lessons have been of a historical or narrative character, a very satisfactory method of review is to call for the places which have been mentioned in the quarter’s lessons. Pointing out the place upon the school map, pin (over the place) its initial letter cut out of some bright colored paper, and then call for the connected persons, events, and truths.”—Sunday-School Times. In “Tom Brown at Oxford,” the best scholar is represented as studying his Greek history by means of a map and pins with large heads made of differ~ ently colored sealing-wax. The redheaded pin represented one army, the black another. And as the text de scribed the movements of the armies, the pins were moved to the places designated on the map. During the late war several ministers did the same thing with the various armies. When news came of any change we marked ‘it with the pins. This plan gives great vividness to the history and assists the memory. Suppose now that we have a large map on the wall. Prepare a pin with a large sealing-wax head to represent Jesus. Smaller pins can represent the disciples and J fihn. Take the initial letters of the principal places, printed on cardboard, so as to- be seen across the room, and with a pin fasten them in their proper places on the map as fast as the journey is made. Some scholar or class can tell where the next movement is to be made, and all the events or incidents clustering around each place can be noted or described

Hope for fair morn. and love for day, And memory for the evening gray And solitary dove. : +—N. Y. Ledger. The Hot Springs of South Dakota. The following letter from Mr. W. M. Tyson, Commander of the Pennsylvania Soldier and Sailors’ Home at Erie, Pa., written on his return home, after a stay of some weeks at Hot Springs; South Dakota, indicates that the Sgrings are in‘a fair way to become one of the leading health resorts of the country: coa Erlg, Pa., Feb. 28,1805. Col. FRep EvaAxs, ProP. ' . “Evans Hotel,’ Hot Springs, S. D. Dear Sir: Among the many who have been benefited by treatment at the Hot Springs, S.D., am{ have experienced courteous hospitality at your hands, I claim the right to say a word in behalf of the Springs as a health resort, and cannot do better than to state the facts in my own case. Ileft Erie, Pa., about November 1, 1894 my friends at the time doubting whether 1 would ever recover my health. larrived at Hot Sprigfs so weak and disheartened that it required aid to leave the cars and reach the hotel. For the first two weeks I felt no improvement. Then I experienced a change, which continued until my departure, and returned to my home very much stronger, and almost free from pain. Ido not hesitate to say to anyone seeking relief from pain, and desiring rest, that I do not believe there is any place where an invalid can go and find so many advantages, such as healing waters, pure air, grand mountain scenery and comfortable hotel accommodations, as Hot Springs, S. D. The elegant Evans Hotel is equi;;ged-with every provision for comfort, and all that goes to make one feel at home. lam sothoroughly convinced of the many advantages to be found at your location, that it is a pleasure for me to recommend the Hot Springs to invalids, and to those seeking amusement as well as health. - ' Wishing you every success, and that Hot Springs may become better known and appreciated, lam Truly yours i (Signedg W. M. TysOXN. The Hot Springs of South Dakota are reached directly by the Burlington Route.
