HEROES.

There is higher courage than the
daring of the battlefield, and great
er fortitude than the stoicism of the
Indian under torture. The army of
heroic martyrs includes many others
than those who suffered on the rack
or at the stake. The following beau
tiful tribute is from the North British

of poverty and the workshop; Of silent

victory over pain, of the unostenta-
tious self-denial of the household; the
lowlY toiling men and women climb

crosses, without human hand held

martyrs who have found and follow

rsund of humble duties, transfiguring
that despised, eircumscribed, care
incumbered life of theirs intoa living
testimony to the truth of Christ's
evangel; the lonely sufferers, priests
by heavenly conservation, offering
the sacrifices Of praise in garret and
cellar; men and women far from

A Japanese saw mill is two uprights
and a crosspOle. The log is placed
one end up upon the erosspole and the
other on the ground. The saw is
about two feet and q half long, about
one foot wide, a quarter of an inch
thick, and having one handle. 1t
looks like a crosseut saw broken off
about two feet and a half from the
handle. The power is a naked coolie
who mounts the log and begins at the
upper end to saw. The saw is so
short and the power" so slow, that
it will take eOOlie whole day, and
sometimes two days to saw a one inch
board off log twelve inches in diam
eter and twenty feet long.

President Grant on Cuban Affairs.

On the 18th inst, President sent
a message to Congress in regard to
the war going on in Cuba. In dis
cussing the subject he refers to the
barbarity and inhumanity praeticed
by both Spanish and Cuban revolu-
tionists. He says: The question of
belligerency, however, which is to be
decided upon definite principles and
according to aseertained facts, is en-
tirely different from and uneonnected
with the other questions of the man.
ner in which TIE strife is carried on
on both sides, and the treatment of
our citizens entitled to our protection.
These questions concern our own
dignity and responsibility, and they
have been made, as have said, the
subject of repeated communication
with Spain, and Of protests and de-
mands for redress on our part. 1t is
hoped that these will not be disregar-
ded; but should they be, these ques-
tiOns will be made the subject of q
communication to Congress.

4 SCIENTIFIC VIEW.

Old DIR. Cooper used to say to his
students, Don't be afraid of little
dirt, young gentlemen. What is
dirt? Why nothing at all offensive,
when chemically viewed. Rub lit
tie alkali upon that "dirty grease spot
ON your coat, and it undergoes q
chemical change and becomes soap
Now, rub it with little water, and it
disappears; it is neither grease, soap,
water, nor dirt. Everything you call
dirt is worthy of notice, as students OF
analyze it! 1t will separ-
ate into very clean elements. Dirt
makes corn, corn makes bread and
meat, and they make sweet young
lady that saw you kissing last night.
So, after all, you were kissing dirt,
if she whitens her skin
with chalk, or fuller's earth. There
is no telling, young gentlemen, what
is dirt"

PROFANITY.

One of the most common, and yet
9 most disgusting vice of the day, is
the use of profane language. The
good book says: "What comes out
of the mouth defileth the man. "
Then some men are terribly defiled
within. Some love to hear them
selves talk, and are yet so barren of
ideas that they try to render emphat-
ic their commonplace utteranees by
senseless oaths in every sentence they
utter. Few profane swearers have an
idea of the terrible nature of their sin,
or its effect upon themselves. If the
consequences of this terrible vice only
resulted in the intense disgust of those
who are unwillingly forced to hear it,
the sin would not be 50 dangerous I;
but when the influence of the swear
er's oaths is considered, the effect Of
this hearthardning sin of blasphemy,
upon the swearer himself, the matter
becomes of terrible importance, and
deeply alarming. In the assumption
of the power of God, in damning his
own soul, the swearer commits the
sin of blasphemy, the most bighting
to the soul of any of the sins preseri-
bed in the word of God. From
moral and social point of view it is a
low, vulgar, and senseless habit that
on one with a particle of respect for
himself or Others should engage in.

Tine Painsville Advertiser relates the
following singular case of sudden loss

CURED in that place on Monday of
last week: Mr.. ID. Sprague, residing
on Erie street, had been splitting kim
ding wood, his wife standing near,
holding light, and, as he finished,
he attempted to speak to her, when he
found himself unable to artieulate a
word. Mr.. S. says he experienced no
unpleasant sensations, and felt re-
markably well. On Tuesday morn
ing, slight feeling of numbness was
experienced in his tongue, which con-
tinued during the day. At evening,
Judge Harris called upon him, and
proposed to try the effect of mesmer-
ism. After making passes round the
neck and under jaw, he spoke to the
anxious wife. remarking, al guess he
can talk now" when Sprague replied,
'I guess 1 can" Thus being as sud-
denly restored to communication to
his friends as he had been deprived of

TO PRINT ON FRUPTS.

When a handsome fruit is intended
to be shown at fair or sent TO friend,
it will add something in the way of
novelty to have its name or that of
some person printed indeilibly upon
its surface. This may be done in sew
eral ways, but the hemOsteommon meth
DDS are as follows: Just before the
fruit has attained its maturity, cut
from tough, thin paper the name
proposed and paste this upon the side
of the specimen most fully exposed
to the sun. That portion of the fruit
covered by the paper will assume a
different color from the other and
when ripe the paper is removed, leav-
ing the name distinctly visible Upon
squashes and melons, names and fig
ures may be indelibly impressed by
scratching the surface while
they are growing.-Hedrth and Home.

THE LORDS PRAYER.

/ The following beautiful poem is said
to have been written by King James I.
| Of England, though by some it is aseri-
bed to Bishop Andrews:
Ifany is distressed, and fain would gather
Some comfort, let him haste unto
Our Father.
For we ofhope and helparequite bereay'n
Except thou suecor us
Who art in heaven.
Thou showest mercy, therefore for the
same
We praise Thee singing
Hallowed be Thy name.
or all our miseries, cast up the sum,
Show us Thy joys, and let
Thy Kingdom come.
We are mortal, and alter from our birth;
Thou constant art
Thy will be done on earth.
Ihou mad'st the earth, as well as planets
seven;
Thy name is blessed here
As tits in Heaven.
Nothing we have to use, or debts to pay
Except thou give it us.
Give us this day
Wherewith to clothe US, wherewith to be
fed,
For without Thee we want
Our daily bread.
Wewant, but want no faults, for no day
passes
But wedo sin,
Forgive US our trespasses.
No man from SHINING ever free did live;
Forgive us, Lord, our sins,
As we forvive.
If we repent our faults, Thou ne'er dis
dainest us;
We pardon them
That trespass against us.
Forgive us that is past, a new path tread
us;
Direct us always in thy faith,
And lead US
We thine own people, and Thy chosen
nation
Into all truth, but
Not into temptation.
Thou art all good, of graees the giver;
Suffer us not to wander,
But deliver
Us from fierce assaults ofworld and devil,
And flesh, so shalt Thou free us
From all evil.
To these petitions let both church and
laymen
With one consent of heart and voice, say
Amen.

THE CHRONICLE.
For the CHRONICLE.
THE NATIONS DEAD.
BY Z. B. wILDMAN.

The soldiers dreary strife is o'er,
Now meath the turf he sleeps,
The call to arms he heeds no more,
No more his vigils keep.
And many bitter tears bedew
The green turf DER each head,
For here the noble brave and true
Lie numbered with the dead.
When treason black did threat our land,
Our freedom and our laws,
They took their lives within their hands,
To die in freedoms cause.
In camp, in hospital, and in field,
In PRISONS dresry cell,
They precious lives for us did yield,
For you and me they fell.
Martyrs of freedom, in the strife,
Their memory ne'er shall fade,
For though they saved the nations life,
Their lives the forfeit paid.
Then strew with flowers their graves,
And drop with them tear,
For now the brsvest of the brave
In glory moulder here.

ADVICE TO MINISTER'S

Do not scold. Do not abuse the
faithful souls who come to meeting
on rainy days, because others are too
lazy to attend. Preach the very best
you can to your smallest assemblies.
Jesus preached to one woman at the
well, and got all Samaria to come out
TO hear him. Take long breath.
Fill your lungs and keep them full.
Stop your breath before the air is ex-
hausted. Then you will not finish
every sentenee-ah with a terrible
as if you were dying for
want of air-ah, as some people do-ah,
and so strain their lungs-ah, as to
make sport for the PhiIistiues.

The most we can do to a good man
is to persecute him; and the most
that persecution can do is to kill him.
The killing of good man is as bad
as it would be to spite a ship by
launching it. The soul is built for
heaven, and the ship for the ocean,
and blessed be the hour that gives
both to the true element.
