THERE are many evils that lurk around
the heart, and many temptations proHpting
us to respond to their calling, but none
more readily c0-Wcrks with all evil than
profanity, and Is ever ready to lay waste a
moral and upright mind, with Its deadly
sting and poisonous arrow. Profanity, We
can truthfnlly say, is the anchor Of many
evils arising from an ungOyerned dlsPosi-

At the time August, who was a child OF
81 years, was playing with a number of
other little ones in the hall up stairs. a
moment before the child had been caress-
ing her mamma, when running out in the
hall, she passed through a window leading
TO a small verandah in front. This veran-
dah overlOObs a stone porch some II or II
feet below, and is protected by low, orla-
mental IRON railing. When the little one
ran on the verandah, she jumped upon the
railing, and, losing her balance, fell. One
short agonizing shrek, followed 10y dull,
heavy thud, as the baby, headlong, struck
the stone pave; tiny stream OF thick brain
clotted blood. and all was over.
