Soft. Pillow.

Whitefeld and a pious companion
were much annoyed one night at a
public house by a set of gamblers in
the room adjoining where they slept
Their noisy clamor and horrid bias
phemy so excited Whitefield's abhor-
renee and pious sympathy that he could
not rest.
Il will go to them and reprove their
wickedness," he said His companion
demonstrated in vain. He went. His
words Of reproof fell apparently harm
less upon them. Returning, he laid
down to sleep. His companion asked
him rather sharply:
"What did you gain by it,"
"a soft pillow he said patiently and
soon fell asleep
Yes, a soft pillow is the reward Of
fidelity, the companion of clear con
science.
1t is sufficient remuneration fol-
doing right in the absence of all other
rewards. And none know more truly
the value of a soft pillow that those
parents whose anxiety for hayward
children is enhanced by consciousness
Of neglect. Those who faithfully re-
buke and properly restrain them b,
their Christian department and re-
ligious counsels can sleep quietly in
the day Of trial.
Carents, do your duty now, in the
fear of God, and when old age comes
on, you may lie down on soft pillow
''Train upa child in the way he should
60, and when he is old he will not de-.
part from it."

AN OLD STORY Re Tom. The fol-
lowing well known anecdote is embark
ed again on mirth- provoking trip. 1t
has been laughed at often already.
A physician, wishing to instrsct his
pupil i'll the mysteries of medicine. took
him to patient who was confined to
his bed.
Sir" said the physician to the sick
man, lyon have been imprudent; you
have eaten oysters "
The patient confessed that he had.
When the physician returned home, the
pupil asked him how he came TO dis
cover that the man had eaten oysters.
"Why, replied he, Il saw some
oyster shells under che bed"
Shortly after this he sent his pupil to
pay visit to the same persen; but he
soon returned, saying he had been
turned out Of the house.
wv ny so! asked the ply stefan.
"simply, sir" replied the pupil, ''for
saying that Mr.. A. had been iiuprudent
that he had eaten horse"
"a horse you blockhead7 and how
could you say so?S
"Because of the symptoms, sir"

Premature Last Words.

A writer in the Louisville "Couriel
Journal tells the following amusing
story of the rebellion: A single shot
followed by loud shrek told US tina,
one of my best men, Bradley, was hurt
He proclaimed his agony with a loud
voice, turned over on his back and com
menced kicking SO vigorously that the
surgeon had difficulty in getting near
him.
"Poor fellow, said the doctor as he
saw whitish liquid oozing out; 'shot
in the bladder | am afraid its fatal"
And he commenced opening his coat.
ooh, my God! said Bradley, 'Im &
dead man"
Keep up your spirits my boy, new
err say die" said Captain johnson
kneeling kindly over him.
Doctor" asked the wounded soldier
feebly, twill you write 10 my mother
and tell her that died bravely, doing
my duty, with my face to the foe; and
that thought of her when dying?'
eyes, said the doctor, with dim ewes
and husky voice; II will write to her
and tell her too"
But sud- emily spripging to his feet
with an indignant voice, said:
"Why, confound it man, you're no
hurt bit It's only your canteen that
shot, and that's the water from it. Ge
up, will you?"
Bradley raised up slowly, felt himsel
all overland with an exceedingly foolish
countenance, crawled back to bis posi-
ton amid the uproarous laughter of til,
whole reg iment.
For months after that, on the marcel
or in camp, and sometimes in the still
ness OF the night, you would hear I
voice in one direction demanding:
"What shall l tell your mother :
and perhaps half dozen response
would be heard: ''Tell her l died witt
my face to the foe, - and then Bradle
would come out and hunt for the MAJ
that said it.
He seldom found him, but when h,
did there was certain to be fight.

Proximity.

We are living emphatically in the
age of profanity, and it seems to us that
we are on the topmost current. One
cannot go through the streets any
where without having his ears offended
with the vilest of words, and his
reverence shocked by most profane use
of sacred names. Nor does it come
from the old or middle.aged alone, for
it is fact as alarming as true, that ths.
younger portion of the community are
the most proficient in the degrading
language. Boys have an idea that
1t Is smart to swear, that it makes
them manly, there never was greater
mistake in the world. Men, even those
who swear themselves, are disguised
with profanity in a young man, because
they know how, of all bad habits, this
clings the most closely and increases
with years. 1t is the most insidious of
habits, growing on one so invisibly that
almost before he is aware he becomes
an accomplished cursor.

HAuLRn Up THREE TINES sY TIE
NECK. About three miles west of TROY.
Kansas, there live two brothers by the
name Of Berry. With one Of them 8
young girl had resided for some time,
and for some reason we know not, ba
the neighbors have suspected that Ber-
ry was treating her as mistress. No
demonstrations were made, however.
until it was noised about the neighbor-
hood that the girl had not been seen.
The people We're aroused, search was
instituted, but no clue revealed itself as
to the whereabouts of the girl. Suspi
cions OF foul play rapidly gained Gre
dence. and all become greatly incensed.
A mob collected, the rope was placed
about Berry's neck after the most ap
proved style of a professional hangnan,
and he was asked if he had anything to
say. lie protested his innocence. but
itavailed him nothing. He was then
drawn up by the neck three times, when
sense OF justice prevailed, and the
victim allowed to depart. The girl has
not been heard from, and the affair still
remains shrouded in mystery. Leaysa-
worth zymes,
