Baby-they call her Baby, though she

thrown up from post-hole. Just then
Annie from the next house came by.
Quick as flash Baby caught up hand
full of earth and threw it full in Annie's
face.
"Why, Babyv' said Aunt Fanny, duly
shocked. "How could you throw dirt
at Annie?"
''It soas there" replied Missy very
cody, as though that were reason
enough.

great deal of dirt is thrown about this
world and over the dwellers therein for
no better reason than Baby's-It is

Why does A help to circulate scan-
dalous and false story about B without
ever stopping to ask, @Is it true ?" or
if it is true,what possible good end can
DE served Dy It's repetition?
The story is there, and some one else
will very likely repeat it if A does not
and so A helps to throw dirt and
blacken BIS fair fame.
"Why do you sell this wretched stuff?''
we asked not long ago of professor of
religion, Oh whose counter lay display

"Why, if l did not sell them some one
else woodland the people want them. -
In short, the poison was there. and in
his eyes that was reason enough for
helping to corrupt the minds of young
boys and girls. He did net think that
he was responsible, not for the doings
Of some one else," but for his own.
wish that in this matter, as in all
others, business men would consider
seriously one verse of a certain old
hymn
Let those who own the Saviour's word
Obey his sovereign will;
The saints-the followers of the Lord
Are men OF honor SILL"
"My dear child don't read that book, ,,
said teacher to young girl deeply
absorbed in low novel. "Where did
You find it.'
"Oh, it was in the library, and took il
because it was there.''
There were plenty of other stories
good and innocent, greatly superior in
interest and character to the tale she
had chosen; but the book had been laid
before her and she had refused the good
and chosen the evil, because cit was
there"
FOR 1t needs must be that offenses
come, but woe unto that man by whom
the offense cometh.'
When the end comes, and when Won
who have used your talents, your educa-
ton, your time, your business capital in
helping to throw dirt, must give an ac-
count of your stewardship, do Won
think that it will be an excuse for those
offenses which have come through your
abuse of Gods gift to answer.-sIt was

1t is said that Tasso-having a bitter
enemy who in many ways had tried to
injure him-was one day told that he
had a chance to take advantage of hin
in the way of trade if he wished to dc
so.. But he nobly replied :@'I wish moi
to plunder him, but there is something
1 wish to take from; not his honor, his
wealth, or his life-but his ill-will.
That is the only wise and right way
to do, boys and girls. If any of your
companions dislike, injure or trouble
you, always do them kindness, if you
can; live SO as to rob them of their ill
will" How much nobler it is to for
give an injury, than to seek revenge for
it.
