Detroit Free Press. THE .ftAY'S WORK. Of all tl 1e beautiful thiucs in this beautiful yi I orld thoro was nono that the little ray It fived so well as the summer sea. He a Ind his comrades would play by the hon jr togethor with the rippling wavelets, darting from one to another in rifl7Klill !o mn1 (lacliDDAl 1 1 ..1. . I ing themi Selves ovor the wators, a sheet of molteca gold, till a'tonoh of the wind's 11 Jght lips broke it up into a thou sand am jmmerlng fragments. And the waves lci,ved their playmates, too, and eaon, as i the rays kiSBed it, became itself a little g widen sun, sending forth its light into thcji radiant air, for the sea, like a fickle, kovable woman, answers back to all In t'heir own moods and is loved just booatUK i she oannot be trusted. Then, where the waves broke on the golden Sanaa aye ronna the olenn, dark rooks, the lit ie rays would nil their foam with light tiJU it shone more brightly white than trie Juugfrau's orost, and themusio of thaj waves breaking was a joy song for theJJr own loveliness. Laughing, they ran up) the smooth sand and embraced with tfeasing play the small pink feet wmonj scampered away before them, while the sun's rays flashed from their snrfacje to meet the light, brighter Btill, whiobi shone from children's eyes. Oh, those (were happy days, and as the little ray d anced along over tho wators he hoped that they never might end. Bat a time came when the voice of the wflnd sounded from afar. The sea hoard it and was troubled to its dopths at th? new life of power and strength whioh was tearing within it, while the wavelets far and wide raised their tiny oroshj, and in ripples of white foam whispered the news one to another. The oloucls, too, heard the voice and gath ered together at its bidding to spread themselves a thiok, dark curtain over tho sea and hide from the sun's face tho tilings whioh were to be. And so the little ray could visit the sea no longer nor join any more in sport with his favorite playniatoa At this his heart was very sad, and he took no de ligh in the other pleasures to whioh his comrades called him. They told him of the wild games they played with the wind shaken leaves of the forest; of the snow cold peaks which they orownod with dazzling splendor of jewels; of fog laden valleys filled with dream forms of weirdest, strangest loveliness; of mys teries of beauty revealed midst the world's most squalid dreariness. But it was all in vain. The little ray longed for his lost playmates and would care for none of these tliinga As he wandered sadly among the heavy, driving clouds, losing himself in their sullen masses, searching for some crevice through which he might penetrate, one of them pitied him. "Sinoo you will it so, "said she, "I will let yon through, though I foar you will find that dreams that are past can never be dreamed again." Then she shrank back from her neighbor, and wlta one swift word of thanks the little ray darted down through the opening she had made. Down he went to the sea below and there lay quivering and lost in its black gulf. Oh, what a changed world it wasl Above him the tompest hurried along and shouted to the waves as it went, and the wavos threw their white heads np and answered back in crashing thunders, "Death, death, and the end of all things I" passionately yelled the tempest "Ruin I" roared the waves. "Naught is that oan withstand usl" a world! of darkness and tumult and terrible unrest . Tho little ray lay where he had lighted, tremulous and afraid, now gliinmering for an instant among cataracts of rushing foam and then lost again in the dark depths of the water. "Hal" cried the waves when they saw im. "So you are here, little ray. The world is changed since you saw it last " "Changed indeed, " said tho ray. "Oh, Why oannot you be ns you wore beforo, my playmates?" But the wavos laugh ed, shaking spray from their crests till the tempest caught it and whirled it mountain high in tho air. ' 'Give ns tho winds for playmates, " tfioy cried, "and the men's lives for onr sport Talk to ns not of the wretched, spiritless days that are jost Tho world is worth living in now." "But yon wore happy then. You rejoiood in the earth's beau ty and wore happy, " said the little ray wistfully. "Becauso wo know no bet ter, " thoy answered. "We have learned since then that there is something fairer than beauty, more glorious than joy. Oh, the ropture of fury when we raise the ship high in the air to hnrl her down on the rocks beneath the cruel rocks whom we love and linger to kiss and infold in our soft white arms even then in the joy of that moment of pow er. To crush into pieces the mighty vessel with all its wealth and labor of workmanship; to scatter abroad the heavy fragments, flinging them to and fro in the very scorn of our sovereign strength; to watch men gasp in their death agony as we lift ourselves above their writhing bodies, and then to crash down and dash tho life from their lips this is power, little frioud; this is pow er, and there is no glory in the world like tho glory of power. " The ray grew chill and wan and trem bled as he listened. "Is there nothing, then, left which is fair to look upon in all this waste of wators?" he cried, and he wandered dismally on. Everywhere the same dark gulfs and white crested mountains mingling together in tumul tuous chaos; everywhere floating frag ments of wreck and tho stain of earth torn from its parent shore; ruin and de struction and nothing that was fair to look upon. Far out to sea a woman, with a ohild in nor arms, floated alone in a small open boat Alone they had been saved from a wrecked and sunken ship saved from drowning, as it seomed, but to dio of hunger, and for hours they had tossed hapless at the meroy of the wavos. Many a ship had oome noar them, but the woman's orles wore not heard in the howling of the tempest, and be neath tho darkened sky the fluttering rag shewavodwas lost in the spray which enveloped her. So the ships went on. The woman's voice grew faint, and Oospair was in hor heart "Lot doath but come quickly, " sho oried, "and but for my ohild it would be welcome but for my ohild and for his father await ing him at home. I have oried. I have prayed in vain. No holp is left in earth or in heaven. " But the little ray wandered on toward her over the sea, and tho woman, lift ing her heavy lids, saw the coming glimmer on the water. Hor breath oame quicker, hor pale lips trembled, her glance followed swiftly up to tho patoh of blue sky above, while over hor death like face and in her dullod eyes there broke a light such as the ray had never seen befora At the sight of it now he flashed baok hp to the hoavens beyond the olouds.. "Come," he oried to his comrades, "come and boo, for thoro is something fairer than aught that has been beforo, fairer than the sunlit sea or than the laughter on children's Hps." His oomrades Hooked to his oall and poured down through the crevice in the olouds, widening it as thoy went. Then thoy stretched themselves, a broad path of light, from the sky above to the lone ly boat whioh they bathed in their soft radiance. Aoross the storm driven soa, oloaviug tho waves asunder with statoly motion, a great ship came. Tho eyes of those on board her, wearied with gloom, turn ed gladly to that bright spot on sky and soa, and turning saw the boat, Baw tho white faoe of the woman and her waving signal. So the ship altered hor course, and soon the mother and her burden stood safe upon the decka Evening drew near. The tompost had flod now, and thus loft alono the tired, gray waves, their strength failing and their fury spent, woro heaving in sullen impotence to rest Tho olouds, falling away from the sky, gathered themsolvos In soft changing masses of vapor around the edge of tho sea. The sun, sinking lower and lower, called to the rays to coma Sadly they heard the oall. Thoy bade farewell to their beloved earth in a passion of forvid color. Upon wave and oliff, mountain and oloud, thoy rained their glowing kisses, and earth's beauty quivorod into new glory, as does a maiden's in her lover's em brace. Then they drew together, a road of golden splondor on the sea as thoy crowded westward aftor their depart ing king. With slow, majestio motion ho sank to rost But the little ray hung baok. He had found the oloud who had stood his friend that morning, and ho waited to give her goodby. Ho was filling her now with his own golden glory of light as he whispered to her of all the beauty whioh was in tho world. Alas, she would stay with it still in the wonder of the night, tho groat dark peace whioh he never might know. Ho thanked her, too, in loving words and kisses till she blushed red with pleasure, and then with tender, slow reluctance ho drew away from her. . As he went tho flush faded, passing in gentle change through every shade of rnssot and purple till the oloud was loft alone, resting soft and gray on her twilight couch. But the little ray was thinking of the light of hope which he had soon in the woman's eyes that day. "Ah," said ho to himself, "if I could only shine like that I" And with this wish in him he lingered still in tho sky beneath, color ing it a groon so pure and so tender that to the woman watohing from the ship's deck it seomed as if heaven's own spring wore bursting into blossom in her sight But the light lessened, and the oolor faded, and she remembored that it was but sun tinted vapor aftor all. Sho sigh od, but the sigh left her lips in a smile, for the child laughing stretched his hands to her faca Lovingly she pressed him olosor to hor and drow her shawl more warmly round him. "Good night little one," she whispered. "You must sleop now, for the day is endod. To morrow, when the light oomos back, you shall wake again. " Then she bent her head down toward his face and min gled her smiles with his in a long, soft kiss. That was the last thing which the little ray saw before ho, too, followed the sun to rest Pall Mall Magazine. A Big Dress Order. "Women play odd tricks on one an other sometimes, " said a smart Amer ican woman tho othor day, "but tho queerest I ever heard of was perpetrated by one social leader in a western city upon another. They were rivals and hated each other accordingly, though outwardly tbey preserved tho semblance of pleasant relations. Every chance that either got to give a dig at the other was eagerly soized. "But tho final and most effective stroke, aftor which no calls woro ex changed, was delivered by Mrs. L . Sho sent out cards for a grand entertain ment and then took pains to find ont what Mrs. F , her competitor, was going to wear. A gorgeous pink brocaded satin was the material of Mrs. F1 's gown, it was ascertained. "Accordingly Mrs. L , whose husband was in tho dry goods business, obtained several hundred yards of the same identical stuff and draped the walls of all the rooms on the lower floor of her house with it You may imngino tho feelings of Mrs. F on arriving in her superb now frock, which she ex pected to make a Bensation. Naturally she ordered hor carriage and drove away in tears. "London Tit-BiU. SECHET OF THE ARK. IT WAS REALLY CONSTRUCTED JUST LIKE A LEYDEN JAR. rhe Fire That Came Out or It Was Elec tricalAaron's Sons Were Electrocuted. Edison and Tola, Had They Lived at That Time, Could Not nave Surpassed Aaron, Thore ib nothing new on tho face of the earth, and there is no doubt that eloctrioity was well known to the Israel ites and probably to the Phoenicians. The first reoord of olectrioal phenomena is as old as the Ten Commandments. Moses, when he received the Btone ta bles on whioh the Ten Commandments woro written tho second time, built a box out of fir not the common cedar or any other native woods, but flrwood, whioh had to be imported by Phoenician morohunts from the southern part of Europa Was this choice accidental on account of the great value of the resin ous wood, or was it the choice of tho best known uoncondm ""r among the groat nnmbor of various timbers? Moses had the flr box lined inside and outside with beaten gold, whioh con verted the ark of the oovonant into a very expensive but very perfeot leydon jar or storage battery for eleotrioity. As gold is by BO per oent a bettor oonduotor of electricity than oopper, was the choice of gold again on account of its value, or was it an inspiration or reve lation? So muoh Is certain that if Edi son or Tesla had lived In thoso days thoy could not have improved on tho choice of material, and tho result was a powerful loydou jar. How wa9 this leydon jar charged, was the next problem. A Are of mate rial rloh in carbon was kept burning on top of the ark of tho covenant, and dur ing daytimo a tall column of smoke guided the 13 tribes of Israel through their wanderings, and at night a tall flame was equally woll soon by thorn. Now oarbon is a good couduotor of eleo trioity, and the partiolos of oarbon float ing in tho smoko would oonduot suffi cient electricity to highly chargo the leydon jar. At least the current of oleo tricty would bo amply strong, so that if a hand were hold toward tho nrk of the oovonant sparks would result That this was douo by Moses at different times is a matter of record, and that ho oould always dopoud that his faithful Levitos would obey his instructions to tho lottor and have tho jar always charged. Aftor Moses' doath his brother Aaron took tho niattor in hand and greatly im proved the electrical power of tho straugo battery. Ho had the urk of tho covenant placed in the templo and had it surrounded by poles 60 ells high, or 1B0 foot. Theso poles wero covered with beaten gold, and gold chains wero hung from poles to tho ark of tho oovonant, which mado a very expensivo but very complete and powerful electrical con nection. In a country where electrical storms are as frequent and as powerful as in Palestine at an elevation of 000 feet and a reach of ISO feet of tho best conductor an abundant supply of Frank lin's olectricity would uocossarily al ways bo on hand. It is very likely that Aaron know nothing bf amperes, ohms or volts; otherwise his two sons never would have monkeyed with this poworful ap paratus, and they would not have been killed by fire breaking out of the ark ot the covenant and killing them without any wounds or burns appearing on thoir bodios. Any ooronor's jury of today, if it woro to sit on an inquest over the body of Aaron's sons, would at once bring a verdict of death by a disoharge of eleo trioity. Aaron knew this power, and to make it effective nil ho had to do to deal death from his apparatus was to remove the costly camel's hair carpets, whioh aro almost perfeot nonconductors of eleo trioity, and mako the culprit stand on terra Anna. Doath would result instant ly by fire breaking ont and leave no wounds or burns to account for his death. That several mombers of revolt ing tribes of Israelites were thus elec trocuted is also a mattor of record in the Bibla Solomon in building his temple ad vanced one step further. He found that oopper would do ns well as gold. He had the temple covered with copper, and copper water pipes led into tho cisterns inside the tompla On tho temple, or rather on its roof, a nnmber of gilt spears woro placed in vertical positions, ostensibly to scare off tho birds and to keop thorn from defiling tho templo, but these spears woro sev eral cords high, or from 10 to 24 foot Such a height would hardly bo necessary for scarecrows, but it was nniplo to load the roof, water pipes, otc, with a pow erful current of olectricity.
