questionings, as is instanced by the discourses Of
Socrates and others In the teachings OF Christ qucs

forth answers but to set the reasons Of men
to work. and to open and startling yistas

largely set forth in questions. The Pharisces
doubtless thought the query absurd. II diaiecti-

The March winds" have been practicing
little for several days and succeed most mag
nifcently in elsvating the soil and rolling
things around promiscuously. 1t is safe to say
generally that dire offcnses from trivial causes
spring. A little wind will sometimes DO
great damage. Hence the following: During
the high wind the other day, the breeze ear
omed on q fruit can and sent it rolling down
street, until it reached the feet OF a span of
horses. The horses became frightened, and
started off on mad gallsp. A man while en-
deavorng to get INTO the wagon from behind for
the purpose of seizing the lines lost his balance
and soarked his shins.'' The horses unm-
peded in their fight ran over fence and tore
away a section or two. And before they came
to a stand-st;ll they had broken their harness
to pieces and shattered the wagon terribly.
Hence an inn ocent little fruit can. which had
lain in the street UNDECIDED for a long time.
with the wind as a hacker, was responsible for
the long list of casualties which we have en-
Enumerated. Hence the moral is that the man
ufacturc of fruit cans should be prohibited at
once.
