SOME OLD DUrCH PRovERBs.-We
must row with the oars We have, and,
as we cannot order the wind, we are
obliged to sail with the wind that gives.
Patience and attention will bring us
far. If cat watches long enough at
the mouse's nest, the mouse will not es-
cape.
The ploughman must go up and
down, and whatever else may he done,
there is 10 other but the long way TO
do the work we'll.
Learn to sleep with one eye open.
As soon as the chicken goes to roost it
is a good time for the fox.
Fools always ask what time it is, but
the wise know their time.
Grind while the wind is fair, and if
you neglect, do not complain of Gods
providence.
God gives food to every bird, but he
does not bring it to the nest; in like
manner be gives US our daily bread, but
BY means Of our daily work.
The dawn of day has got gold in its
mouth.
He that lags behind in road where
many are driving always will be in a
cloud of dust.
Never set yonr feet in dirty and

is a work that will bring bad interest if
you wish to suck honey Of thistles.
You will need long spoon if you

ABridecroo,n.s Insanity.

A dispatch from Parkersburg, West
Virginia, to the Pittsburg Commercial,
dated FEBRUARY 9, gives the following
particulars of a very sad affair:
CDR. Reuben w. Vance, son OF Judge
Alexander Vance, of Galliopolis, Ohio,
attempted TO commit suicide here last
night by shooting himself in the head.
He was married few days ago in New
York to very estimable young lady,
connected with some Of the best taml-
lies in that city. At the time he was
suffering from slight alteration Of the
mind. and as he appeared to be getting
worse, it was deemed best to send him
home to his fathers to be taken care OF.
He arrived here last night in care of
one of the New York metropolitan po-
lice in undress, but who carried his
BADGE. mace, and credentials with him.
They put up at the Occidental Hotel in
a double bedded room. The doctor, be-
fore leaving New York, had been de-
prived of everything that could be used
to his injury, and all along had been
ouite tractable and manifested nothing
like a spirit of mischief But his guar
dian carried with him pair OF hand.
cuffs, wich he put with his revolver and
valuables under his pillow.
"About 2 o'clock this morning he was
aroused by the doctor speaking to him,
and gradually working and leaning
towards out his bed, when, in moment,
and before a single movement could be
made, he suatched the revolver from
under the pillow, and discharged a bar, r,
rel into the top of his head. He fell
back insensible and bleeding. A doct-
tor was called in, but could not find the
bullet.
"By morning Vance had recovered
sufficiently to walk little and to eat
his breakfast, and it was pronounced
safe to take him on home as fast as pos
sible. He started this morning at ten
o'clock by rail for Portsmouth. The
following note was found on the table
in his room after the occurrence, writ
ten in a very nervous hand;
"Colonel John L. Vance: assure
YOU and the world, and Anna, that l die
asserting her innocence. Who can
have started such stories? | die loving
her REUBEN A. VANCE"

BUsYBODIEs.

1t is fact, as I've been told,
That people, in the days Of old,
Got rich in silver and in gold,
No matter what they bought or sold,
By minding their own business.
They did not try to wound ones fame,
Or SANDER anybody's name;
They cared not when you went or came
They pleased themselves--you did the
same,
II it was your own business.
And if man did what was right
In his own mind, and in the sight
Of God and law, by day and night,
He went ahead and fought the fight,
Determined on his business.
But in degen'rate modern days
There's quite change in peoples ways
And what person does or says
Must be held up unto the gaze
Of every busybody.
And if you do not tell them, too,
Where you are going, and what to do,
They get in such an awful stew,
THEY'LL even watch and follow you
These very busybodies.
And then they surely think they know
Just when you come and when you go,
And they will whisper so and so,
To every friend and every foe
These very busybodies.
But if we take the pains to see
Who these same busybodies be,
We find there's not he or she
Who has decent history,
Among these busybodies.
But let us no more notice take
OF evil tongues; but for their sake,
Well hope and pray they soon may
wake
From wickedness, and money make
By minGing their own business.

No succcss without Industry.

l really believe, young friends that
idleness is the ground OF most vices. l
am acquainted with certain young men
who are running about the streets,
whom see stepping out Of drinking
saloons. Some OF them are sons OF re-
putable parents. remember last sum-
mer meeting young malone OF the
best dressed lads in the city-a young
man whom | met in the omnibus fire.

"Well haven't you anything to do 3
Nothing in particular" he answered.
1t was somewhat impertinent, but l
said :
"Well, suppose now you are out OF
school, you mean to get into something
pretty soon 7"
"Well, have not anything just now
in view," he replied.
To make long story short, the poor
fellow has not anything in view, never
did have much of anything in view.
Drifting, drifting, drifting! Down,
down down! He is not the boy he
was when conversed with him last
summer. There is nothing truer, tho
trite, than the adage, can idle brain Is

PRESBYTERIAN MISSION TO GREECE

PRESBYTERIAN Mission TO GREEcE.-
The New York Observer notices the
fact, already mentioned, that the Rev.
Geo. w. Lsyburn, Of the Synod OF Viz
einia, will leave this country in the
Spring to re enforce the Greek mission
at Athens, of which, many years ago,
he was oue of the founders, and which
the health of his family compelled him
to leave. He will be accompanied by
his son, the Rev. q. L. Leyburn, who
for more than seven years has been the
pastor of the Loudoun Street Church in
this city. The latter gentleman was
born in Greece. He is recognized as
one of the ablest ministers of the Synod
ofVirginia, aud his resignation is a
loss, not only to the congregation which
he has served so faithfully and eff
ciently, but to the church generally.
The Greek mission is now under the
charge of the Southern Presbyterian
Church, and through the labors of the
Rev. DIR. Kelapothakes, is achieving
great success.-Winehesfer Neics

SIGNING THE PLEpGE.-When In Con
gress Tom Marshall was subject to ter
rible s.sprees." In 1912, after one OF
his fearful debauches, he became alarm
ed for himself, and related in temper
ance speech the incident of signing a
temperance pledge as follows:
Invent into the House in the morn
ing, before the Speaker had "called to
ORDER" and going up to one OF my col
leagues said to him: 81 must sign q
temperate. pledge My colleague re,
piled. 81 do not know anything about
temperance pledges; but if any man in
this House does it is Briggs, of Massa-
chusetts, who is over there in his seat.
| remarked: 81 know Mr.. Briggs, but
am not intimately acquainted with him;
he is from cold cline and / think the
cold cline are cold in blood" But |
went over to the seat of Mr.. Briggs.
He was writing. said to him: Il
want to sign a temperance pledge.
knowing as he did my habits, be
thought | was qulzzing him, as 1
thought by his expression when he
looked up at me. But l said in an
earnest manner, Il must sign the pledge,
and / signed it, and said: Il feel better
now" After Ihad put my name to the
pledge, noticed that when Mr.; Briggs
turned his face to mine again the large
blue eyes of the Yankee from cold
cline were filed with tears.
A correspondent says be has heard
the late Governor Briggs speak OF this
signing of the pledge by Mr.. Marshall
and how it effected him, and how ne re-
ioiced that one endowed with so many
gifts should be saved. from a drunk
ards fate.

Mr.. BEECHLR IN DANGER.-Ths fol-
lowing is taken from the Chicago Tn
bure: Beecher's unwholesome redness
looks to me like dreadful menace of
apoplexy. The slightest personal al
lusion to himself during the proceed
ings invariably deluges his face
with blood. He seems to swell in mo
ments of nervous irritation, and the
veins upon his forehead dilate to the
very point Of rupture. Once to day l
was alarmed by his fearful appearance.
His throat and neck were just as Grim
son as his cheeks, and his heart kept
pumping the dangerous food into the
brain until l thought TO see him com
pete the tragedy of falling out OF his
chair dead. Whether these acute con-
gestions will not be aggravated by his
helpless and terrible position inthe wit
ness chair, l am not learned enough to
declare. To my Judgment, the posi-
bility OF a dealh-blow that will tear the
filaments of his brain and smite him
with paralysis does not seem too remote
to be conjccturable. One day last week
his physician, DIR. Jewett, whose knowl-
edge of cerebral disorders is profound,
sat close to his patient with an anxious
