Counting the Electoral Vote.

rHE Joint resolution, which was recent
ly passed by the United Ststes Senate,
proposes to substitute for Article u of the
Constitution new article, of which the
main features are the following:
"The electors are to ballot in their re-
spective States for President and Vice
President as at present, but the list OF
votes must be sent to the presiding JUS
tlce of the United States Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court, at time and place
to be fixed by law, is to publicly open all
the certificates and count the votes,
and the person having the greatest num-
ber of votes for President considered
by the court to have been lawfully
given and certified, shall be President
if such number be a majority of the whole
number of electors lawfully appointed.
If no person has such majority the state
of the vote shall be Immediately certified
to the House of Representatives, which,
from the persons having the highest num-
Der, not exceeding three, on the list Of
those voted for as President, shall choose
the President Immediately by a Uioa Uoce
vote, the representative from each State to
have one vote, if majority Of its delcga-
ton agree on one candidate, but otherwise
the vote of such State shall not be count
ed. A quorum is to consist OF member,
or members, from two. thirds of the States,
and a majority of the States shall
be necessary for choice. The vot-
ing must continue until President
is elected; in case the House fails to elect
before the 4th of March next following,
then the Vice President shall act as Pres
ident, as in the case of the death or con-
stitutional disability Of the President.
The person having the greatest number of
electoral votes for Vice. President, to be
counted and determined as above pro-
vided, shall be Vice President, if such
number be a majority of the whole num-
Der of electors; if no person is thus elect
ed the Senate is to choose Vice-Presi-
dent by majority of its whole member
ship. Finally, it is provided that no JUS
tice of the Supreme Court shall be eligi-
BILE or elected as President or Vice Presi-
dent until the expiration of two years after
he shall have ceased to hold office"

Keep the Tongue.

KEEP it from unkindness. Words are
sometimes wounds. Not very deep
wounds always, and yet they irritate.
Speech is unkind sometimes when there
is no unkindnesS in the heart; so much
the worse that needless wounds are in
tllcted; so much the worse that unintcn-
tionally pain is caused.
Keep it from falsehoOd. 1t is so easy to
give false coloring, to so make a state
ment that it may convey a meaning differ
ent from the truth, while yet there is an
appearance of truth, that we need to be on
our guard. There are very many who
would shrink from telling lie, who yet
suffer themselves in such inaccurate or
exaggerated or one-sided statements that
they really come under the condemnation
of those whose "lying lips are an abom-
ination to the Lord"
Keep it from SANDER. The good repu-
tation of others should be dear to us. Sin
should not be cuffered to go unrebuked;
but it should be in accordance with the
Scripture method. "Go and tell him OF
his fault betwiXt thee and him alone"
And it should be horne in mind that what
is too often considered as merely harm
less gossip runs dangerously near, if it
does not pass, the confines of SANDER. A
reputation is too sacred to bemade a play
thing of, even if the intent be not mali

If they did that they would have to at
tack them both in the open road and on
horseback. The smith knew the inn to
which they were going, and was well ac-
quainted with the outbuildings in which
they were to sleep. He proposed, there
fore, that they should rob the peddler in
his sleep, and only use violence in case it
was necessary to secure safety. When
they entered the outbuildings the smith
went toward Scott's bed, while Richard
remained near the door.
Finding the man wanted was not there,
Steele and his son approached the other
bed and found the peddler, knowing it
was he from his bald head. They tried
to remove the valise on which he slept,
from under his head, but he evidently
mad his hand in the strap, and the tug
awoke him.
The reader knows the rest from the
story told by Scott. After the smith and
his son had quilted the room, with what
they supposed was the peddler's valise,
Steele's mind misgave him, and dread
that Scott had been an observer of the
bloody deed, aud would recognize the
perpetrators, seized him.
He hurried back to the room resolved to
brain Scott if he found him awake. On
discovering the bed empty, the smith
dropped his hammer in alright, the only
explanation to his mind of Scott's absence
being that he had witnessed the crime and
Quilted the place secretly to give the
alarm. The smith and his son departed
panic-stricken, and on reaching home dis
covered, to their intense modification and
disappointment, that the valise for which
they had murdered man and exposed
themselves to the gallows, contained only
a few old clothes. Steele and his son
were hanged at York, Dec. s, 1897.

Evenings ut Home.

| | REMEMBER in my seminary days our
morning in this way;
young ladies, am going to make
you all clairvOyants. In that state you
know you can see things not present to
the eye. Now, then, you are all back in
your rooms, look at your study tables,
are books, papers, pens and ink in place?
See your wash stand, do you see unemp-
tied bowls? Now look up to the top of
your stove-pipes, do your clairvoyant eyes
see any dust? Take look under the bed,
are there any rolls of lint? Open your
closet-doors, do dresses, hat and cloak
hang on their hooks; are boots and rub
bers set up clean and tidy; are the
shelves in order? Shut your closets and
look again well around the room. Does
it look as though you flew out and left
your chairs anyhow when the chapel bell
struck ~
Now, dear young folks, as we gather
around the evening lamp, suppose |
make you clairvoyants and ask you the
same questions How did YOU leave your
own rooms this morning? How have they
been through the day, and how do you
expect to find them when you retire to-
night? Carpet swept, chairs, stand and
table in order, curtains evenly looped, or
evenly rolled, and bed so smooth and even
that it will seem good TO lie down in it!
Remember ones own room, from day to
day, tells the story of the character of its
occupant.
Well" say the boys, " that does very
well for the girls The girls take care of
our rooms; | wish they would be as nice
as that" Boys, did you ever think how
much work it is for your sisters or your
mother to keep all the rooms nice every
day? Well, that is their business" To
be sure it is, but you can help them Il
great deal if you will. How very easy
for you, when you spring out Of the bed
in the morning, to draw the bed right
back smoothly upon chair at the foot,
and when you leave the chamber how
easy to open the sash. Then when the
sister comes she finds the room and bed
aired, and all ready for her to " fix nice"
All, but how many boys leave their bed in
q snarl and tangle, and perhaps have
worn dirty boots up the stairs. tool
But there is little introspcction | may
ask you to make this evening, not con-
ncctcd with tidy looms so much as with
tidy hearts and well kept tongues. Boys,
who Of you have spoken cross or unkind
words to your sister or to each other to-
day? Who has been unwilling to rest
mother by tending the baby? Who has
felt fretted and thUrny when asked to help
about some work or ChOre? Girls, who
has said, go, | can't" when little broth
er or sister has asked you to lace a shoe,
to give string, to find toy, to come and
play? Well, as you think of it, and the
little monitor within says, wrong,
wrong" do not shrink from going and
saying, /" am sorry | spoke cross to you
to day" or, II am sorry | did not help
you when you wished. | will next time"
Because these little confessions are Won
derful helps to start right again, and WON
derful strengtheners OF family Affection

SOME years ago certain Detroiter set
tied debt by giving his note of hand.
The holder tried for two years to collect
it, and then filed it away. The other day
he had an opportunity to work it off on
an innocent party, and shortly after so do
ing he encountered the maker of the note
and said:
"Now you'll have to come to time!
I've sold that note of yours"'
"You don't say so?"
Yes, l have; got it off ON man for
seven dollars"

for that forty-dollar note against me, and
you won't give me at least two dollars, l'll

About two years ago, James Samson,
President of the Peoples Bank, Monon-

gentleman living beyond Youngstown,
o., and by him it was sold to another gen
tleman, having in the transfer travelled
over 200 miles by rail, and changed own
ers twice On New Years day strange
horse was recognized by the people about
the Samson farm, and efforts were made
to drive it away. The horse acted excep-
tionally, neighing and whinnying when
any of the family came about, and it was
finally recognized as the horse sold two
years before. This animal had travelled
216 miles, after an absence Of two years,
in search of his old home, which he
found, too, with that unerring quality OF
mind which people call instinct.-Nonon-
