troubles coming upon us, Sister White ?
she cried in deep distress. "Hcrcs the min
isters,s wife going as crazy as "a coot at paint
ing her checks and curling her hair, ane
shrieking over the palmer all day long, ant
spending all his salary for embroidered mus
lin gowns while he hasn't but one shirt tt
his back, and one stocking to his foot. ane
has to sleep in his boots. And his bfair
softcning, or hardening or something, dom
know what, with the trouble of holding hc1
down when she goes into her tantrums; ane
they do say that. the town will haze to sene
them both to Brattlcboro, if the society dom
hold and help. What do you think had bet
ter be done in such case, Sister White?
Sister White was at loss to say. 1t was
a matter that demanded prayerful considera
tion she thought But they didn't have
prayers, in that house, till Deacon White
came home from the grocery at half past
nine. So she had time to 60 up the lane
and tell her trouble to Mrs Gray, who had
been her bosom friend for years.
"Tm sure, Mrs. Gray, don't know what
the Deacon will say" she sighed Here's
the church all going to be broken up, just as
he hadset it agoing SO nicely. The minister's
wife has gone crazy, and she is all painted
up, and she's been taking all the salary to
buy silk embroidered gowns with and the
minister hasn't shirt to his back, ora stock
ing or shoe to his foot, and he's as wild as
hawk with holding her when she tries to kill
herself or him. The town is going to send
them right off to Brattlehoro, and suppose
the society will expectth the Deacon to go with
them, and land knows never expect to see
him come back alive if he does. It's the
dreadfulest thing ever heard Of in all my
life. And what would you advise the Dea-
con and me to do, Mrs. Gray?"
History does not record the answer given
By Mrs. Gray. But it must have been forci-
Bile, and to the point, for the whole place was
in an uproar on the following day, and the
greater part of the Pensioners fully expect
cd osee their minister and his wife taken
away to Brattleboro by the officers of the
town, if not exactly in chains, at least by no
means, clothed and in their right minds. 81
And when, after long ard. patient inquiry
on the part Of the minister's real friends, it
was proved that his wife's hair curled natu-
rally, and that she painted pictures, and not
her cheeks !; that the minister had twelve
good new shirts made by her own hands,
and that she darned his stockings faithfully
every Friday plight; that her embroidery pur-
chases amounted only to one alfyard, strip
of muslin that she only played the piano
of an evening by her husbands request, and
that neither his nor her brain was softening,
or in any danger CT doing so-why, then
Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Jones, Mrs Brown, Mrs.
White, and Mrs Gray held up their hands
and rolled up their eyes, and said piously
: Oh, dear, dear. dear How people seiN

that the editor, slight youngster, without
even a cane to use in his defence, saw how

The MIND is THE MAN-Ths mind is

The MIND is THE MAN-The mind il
the man. The body is the Instrument through
which the mind manifests itself while on
earth. The mind is manifested through for,
ty or more organs Each is primary and i'll
dependent in its function, doing its OVID work
and not doing the work of any other. Each
of these powers is manifested by or through
particular organ or portion of the BRAIN
The power Of each organ, all other things be-
ing equal, is in exact proportion to the size
and quality of that portion of the brain thro'
which it is manifested. The mental powers
are possessed originally in different degrees by
different individuals, and also by the same
individual. One possesses ten talents, anoth-
or FIVE, another one. Each mental power
grows stronger and becomes more skillfull by
proper exercise. Our accountability is just
in proportion as We make good or bad use
of these talents. Each mental power was
created for the purpose Of doing good, and
was intended to be properly used
