said MIR. Moody, In the Chicago noon
prayer meeting, "whether you take hold
of God or whether God takes hold of
you. My little girl to-day refused to let
me take hold of her hand when VIC were
walking together. She thought she
could go alone. Hut when we came to
a place that was slippery she took hold,
first Of my little finger, and then, as it
grew more icy, Of my whole hand. As
We went OH. and Il was growing verse
she let go entirely, and said, Papa, take
hold Of me- She knew that I was
strong and that she could not fall unless

reason Is, that have not put my hand

Him 10 take hold Of me. AS long as

Judge Colo and the ,rphans' Home.
Certain newspaper in this State,
stimulated hy motive which it Is for.
eign to our purpose nov to define,, have
seen fit to directly orindirectly charge
that the funds Of to joldiers' Orphans
Home had not betn Aithfully account
ed for by those chtyed with their man
agement. Just AsIthe Legislature was
assembling in thi4city, in January last,
The National Platform, published here,
contained an nrti4e headed "gricvous
scandal" and Without giving any
names, unmistakably referred to Judge
Cole, the former HVpsdent, and Rev. p.
p ingalls,. the fortnSr General Agent of
the Home, as the p(lsons who had not
accounted for the Orphan funds. Judge
Coles attention being called to the arti-
Gle, @ se the i1sgiYt fsssgisYstsre asking the most
thorough investigation into the manage
ment of the funds of the House, and
especially rs to his own fidelity or the
want cf IL. A Joint Committee from
both Houses of the General Assembly
was at once appointed, composed of
some from both political parties. That
committee commenced q thorough in
vestigation and continued their meet
ings therefor during most of the ses-
sion; and after an examination Of the
affairs Of the institution from its origin,
and an investigation Of its finances, and
the vouchers of the persons having
charge Of the funds, the committee dur
ing the last week Of its session, made u
unanimous report in which they COM
pletely vindicated the honesty aud fidel-
ity of Judge Cole, Mr., ingalls,, and 9TH
ers, and state that they have faithfully
accounted for every dollar received by
them. The report Of the committee was
adopted by the unanimous vote Of both
Houses.
1t Is due as well to the best interest of
the Home itself, as to Judge Cole aud
Mr.. Ingalls,, that the result of the !eyis-
lative action should be known through
out the State. The reputation of Iowa
has been enhanced not little by the
fact that 1t took the lead Of other States
In providing for its soldiers orphans !;
and 1t il fully true, that for our early
and successful establishment of the Sol
diers' Orphans Home, We are more in
debted to Judge Cole and Mr.. Ingalls,
than any other men in the State. Let
1t be done.-Des Moi.es Register.

ETIQUETTE OF INTRoDUcT1oSs.- TO
introduce persons who are unknown to
each other, Is to undertake serious re-
sponsibility, and always involves the
endorsement of each, of the rcspectabel-
ity Of the other. This responsibility
should never be undertaken without
first ascertaining whether it will be ac-
ceptable to both persons to become ac-
lLainted. Always Introduce the gen
tleman to the lady-never tho contrary
this rule is to be observed every where
socially and otherwise. The chivalry
Of etiquette assumes that the lady is in
variably the superior by right of her sex
and that the gentleman is honored by
being presented. Where the sexes are
the same present the younger to the
elder, the unmarried to the married, or
the inferior In social rank or talent to
the superior. A gentleman should new
er be introduced to lady without first
asking her permission.

peA- An exchange makes the follow
ing sensible remarks about newspaper
sponges: There are many people in the
world who make it business to sponge
the reading Of their county paper with
out any expense to themselves. They
are found wherever the paper is left--in
a shop, office, store or barber shop, and
often borrowing it before the owner has
had an opportunity Of seeing it. This
is done by very many who are abun-
dantly able, and whose duty would seem
to be to sustain their county paper, by
subscribing and paying for it.

NECK TWISTING IN CHURcH.-The
following is old, but will bear reading
again, aud the hint may do some good /:
A curious story is told Of All eccentric
old minister who was annoyed by u habt
his people had acquired, and which pre-
walls, by the way, in all churches even
now and hereabouts to some extent, OF
twisting their necks around every time
anybody entered the door and passed up
the aisle OF the church, to see what
manner of person lie might be. Weared
with the annoyance, the old man ex-
claimed, one Sunday: "Brethren il you
will only cease turning your heads
around whenever the door opens, and
you will keep your attention on me,
will promise to tell you, as preach,
no it is that comes in." Accordingly
he went on with the services and pres
emily made Il stop as one Of the deacons
entered, saying, THAT is deacon A,
who keeps the grocery opposite" And
then he announced in turn, the advent
of each individual, proceeding the while
with his sermon as composedly as the
circumstances would admit, when u
stranger came In, and he cried out: "A
little old man with green spectacies and
drab Overcoat-don't know him-you
can all look for yourselves" 1t is hard
~ necessary to add that the good man
carried his point, and there was but lit
tie neck twisting seen in his congrega-
ticn after that day.
