THE MAN WHO KEEPS Two OR
THREE DOGs.-It is pleasant to pay a
visit to man who keeps two or three
dogs. The dogs always fly at you in the
ward, and Just as you have made up your
mind that you are gong to be torn from
limb to limb, the owner appears, and, as
you wipe the Precipitation from your brow,
he laughs, and says those dogs are per
ftctly harmless, except when anyone resis;s
them" Then you sit down in the porch,
and all three Of the dogs sniff at your legs
and you are afraid to move. If you can
summon up courage enough to pat one on
the head, the otLcr two instantly put their
forelegs on your lap, and cover your legs
with dirt, while each struggles to crowd
the other off After bit the third dog
tries to jump on your knee, and they
threaten to fight about it, while you are
afraid to encourage one for fear of making
the other two ma1. When they have
paved about your pantaloOns and covered
them with mud, the owner interferes and
sends them all away. After tea your host
excuses himself for half an hour, and you
20 cut to sit in the porch alone. Presently
the three dogs come bounding up, and they
all begin smelling you as earnestly as if
they had never performed the operation
before Then they lie down but as soon
as you move your chair or your feet, they
spring suddenly up, and appear to be deep
" interested in considering you. You
think you will take walk in the garden,
and the whole three follow close at your
heels, while you are expecting every mo-
ment to have the calf of you leg bitten out.

THE PLACE TO MAKE MoNEY.--Now
and then statements appear in various pa
pers as to the advantages which certain
localities offer for making money. AT one
time it was in the great West where all the
riches were, and which could be gathered
up by the basketful, by any sort of brooms
new or old. But since the great cry came
out of the West that the farmers of that
region are an oppressed and poverty
stricken people, Western papers seem to
delight every once in while in giving ex-
amples of how true a tale they tell. Here
before us for instance is Nebraska paper
which pathetically tells the story of man
who went to that State to farm fifteen years
ago with just one dollar IN his pocket, and
after so many years of toll and effort went
out of the State with one dollar and thirty
eight cents, having cleared thirty-eight
cents by his ''hard life.'' But this is only
one instance, and very small one at that
they are telling Us of.
On the other hand there are cases which
they do not tell US about, but which we
have to guess at. Here for instance we
are told of half dozen down-trodden and
oppressed farmers who never made penny
on account of the rapacity of their tyranni-
cal rulers, who subscribe some $4,000 TO-
gether to run a mill or factory or a trans
portatiop company or some one or another
of the innumerable schemes which are to
drive the Old-time middle-man out of exist
ence, only to build up another set to take
his place. In fact the money that the i'm
poverished farmers Of the West club to-
gether for these various objects, as reported
in Western papers, is one of the most re-
markable of phases in half-starved life.
The fact is whether a man should 60
West or stay East is not to be measured
by any standard of advantages of one Sec
tion over another but by accidental cir
cumstances of which each individual must
be the judge in his own case. There are
plenty of young men in the East who after
working fifteen years would have no more
to show for it than the Nebraska boy and
there are many also who set to farming in
the East without dollar who are now as
rich as any Western man.
1t is nonsense to suppose that any one
section has the advantage over the other

In the great Johovah's name,
We rise to save our kindred

Our God is marching on.
From mornings cary watches
Till the setting of the sun,
We will never flag nor faitcr
In the work we have begun,
Till the forts are all surrendered
And the victory is won.
Our God is marching on.
We WELD no carral weapon,
and We hurl no fiery dart:
But with words Of love and reason
We are sure TO win the heart,
And persuade the poor transgressor
10 prefer the better part.
Our God is marching on.
When dawns the day Of terror,

With Almig .ty arms to help us,
We have faith 10 do and care,
While confding in his promise
That the Lord will answer prayer.

GUM-ARABIC.-T The most familiar OBJ
jects about US are often the least under
stood, and probably few pause to ask the
question, What is gum-arabic, and
whence comes it ?'' In Morocco, about the
middle of November, THAT is after the raj
ny season, gummy juice exudes sponta-
neOusly from the trunk and branches Of
the acacia. 1t gradually thickens in the
furrow down which it runs, and assumes
the form of oval and round drops, about
the size of a pigeons egg, of different CO.
lors, as it comes from the red or white
gum-tree. About the middle of Decem-
ber the Moors eucamp on the borders Of
the forest, and the harvest lasts a full
month. The gum is packed in large fea-
ther sacks and transported on the backs of
camels and bullocks to seaports for ship
ment. The harvest occasion is one of
great rejoicing, and the people for the time
being almost live on gum, which is nutri
tious and fattening.
