If there is any one thing more
than another that will make man
hate himself-that will turn his
blood yellow hot, and poison-that
will shut out the smiling and the
warmth of Gods sunshine from
his soul-it is a right down quar-
rel. He can have no respect for
himself, and certainly the event
will not enhance the respect of his
neighbors. "A man may fall into
mudhole, and the wet will dry
and the dirt may be brushed Off
a man may stumble and bark his
shins, and he can recover his equi-
librium, and the pain will soon be
wasted. Even q broken bone may
be healed, and the lost flesh will
be replaced. But the sting that re-
suits from a qurrel are not so east
ly overcome Quarrelling begets
quarreling. 1t blunts the sensibil-
tiles, and sets the spirit in a fer
ment-and fermenting spirit is
about as near an approach to hades
as can be found on earth. If the
thing can be honorably done, live
n peace and quiet. Peace and
quiet are not only good for the in
dividual, but they are good for
the neighborhood. AS rule (all
rules have exceptions) if man
cheats you don't deal with him
any more; if he seeks to abuse
you let him severely alone.
In short, keep cool, and
keep the peace. blessed are the
peacemakers," says the Great
Teacher; and we may add, "Thrice
blessed is he who can maintain an
atmosphere ofpeace about him con-
tinually."

with his Jersey wagon and spank
Ing bay, to convey the "corporos-
ityo of our distinguished friend to
the door of mine host of the Cen
trail" In crossing the river--the
water being deep in places-our
friend, the Professor became
somewhat nervous, and anxiously
inquired of Louieif there was any
danger, but when one wheel run
over a large stone, causing the bed
of the wagon to dip water, the
Professor yelled whoal whoa
10 the horse,and nervously clutch
ed Louie By the arm, excIaiming
in tones ofaffright, MY God man
you will upset aud drown us.
THE frantic cry ofthe "Pfofessorn
caused the horse to stop, and no
scene which ensued wasludicrous
in the extreme. The horse became
fractions and refused to pull the
"Professor'sn cheeks blanched
with fear, and at the top of his
stentorian voice he called 10 some
boys in boat near by to come
to the rescue, and save him from
Il Watery grave. The boys know
ing the water was not deep enough
to drown any one, Knocked at his
fear and smole sardonic smile.
Louie, who all this time was
swearing like the army in Elan
uerS, exclaimed:
"Mien Got, Mr.. Staub, for what
you say whoa? / shus get you out,
and you no gets wet, Ii you be
quiet-G lang Billyp striking the
horse with his whip, causing him
to lunge forward, breaking the
single-tree, but fortunately pulling
the wagon out on dry land. Ii was
laughable, indeed, to hear the
Professor lecture Louie on his
recklessness and endangering peo-
PIES ives in that manner, and
Louie answering, "you no say
whoa, and me and Billy shus get
you out, If you no say whoa"
Ii is very apparent that the
| "Prof.o Is well and favorably
known in this village. The smil-
ing faces and extended hands that
greeted him on all sides was evi
dence of this fact. The "Prof.n
| showed us around the viii
lage, and pointed out the college
on the bill where in his younger
manhood he taught school and ex-
| planned to us with evident pride
the system under which he taught
the "young ideas how to shoot'--a
| part of his system was to- teach the
boys how to soldier each boy was
assessed i24 cents to uniform the
company.
Oh, were you ne er school-boy
| And did you never train
And feel that swelling of the heart
You ne er can feel again.
The professor" is very DIES rous
that nothing shall ne said about his
efforts at fishing. He wishes it dis
tinctly understood that the river
was too muddy, and that it was
not good day for fishing, no how.
The professor" may know how
to teach school, but as a "fishist"
he is II grand failure. He didn't
get ii bite. He says it is much hard
er than selling boots and shoes.
The Professor" had promised q
lot of bass to friends in Baltimore,
and having gone home without q
"fin,n it would be amusing to hear
his excuses fornot bringing them.
