ca A clergyman was preparing bis
discourse for Sunday, stopping OCCASION
ally to review what be bad written, and
to erase that which he disapproved,
when he was accosted by his little son,
who numbered but five summers
" Father, does God tell you what to
preach ?" Certainly, my child"
"Then what makes you scratch it out ?"

What Paul Said.

The other evening the Rev. Mr.. Phil
acter sat down to the tea-table with n
very thoughtful air, and attended to the
wants of his brood In very abstracted
manner. Presently he looked up at his
wife and said:
"The Apostle Paul"
"Got an awful lump on the head
'safternoon," broke in the PASTORS eldest
son, "playing base ball. Bat flew out
OF the strikers hand when / was UNI
pire, and cracked me right above the
ear, an dropped me. Hurt ? Golly"
and the lad shook his head In dismal
butexpressive pantomime as he tenderly
ribbed lump that looked like billiard
ball with hair on i. The pastor gravely
paused for the interruption, and re-
sumed;
1.-THE Apostle Paul---b

daughter, addressing her mother. "She
had on that same old everlasting black
silk made over with vest of tilleul
green silk, coattail basque pattern,
overskirt made with diagonal folds in
front, edged with deep fringe yellow
straw hat with black velvet facing in
side the brim, and pale blue flowers.
She's going to Chicago"
The good minister waited patiently,
and then, in tones just a shade louder
than before, said:
4" The Apostle Paul"
" Went in swimmn' last night with
Harry and Ben, pap, and stepped on q
clam SHE'LL" exclaimed his youngest
son; " cut my foot so, can't stay home
tomorrow 2"
The pastor informed his son that he
might stay away from the river and
then resumed his topic.
"The Apostle Paul"
My teacher is an awful liar, ;" shouted
the second son " he says the world is
as round as an orange and it turns
around all the time faster than a circus
man can ride. / guess he hain't got
much sense"
"The mother lifted warning finger
toward the boy and said "sh ~ and the
father resumed:
The Apostle Paul says"
Don't bite Off twice as much as you
can chew" broke out the eldest son,
reproving the assault of his little brother
on piece of cake. The pastors face
showed just trifle of annoyance as he
said, in very firm, decided tones:
" The Apostle Paul says"
"There's a fly in the butterr' shrieked
the youngest hopeful of the family, and
a general laugh followed. When 81
lence was restored the eldest daughter,
with an air of curiosity, said:
Well, but pa, 1 really would like to
know what the Apostle Paul said 20
Pass me the mustard said the pas,

Editor Anti-Monopotist:
The question has been asked: What
is the best remedy for the poverty
and wretchedness that exist amongst
the laboring classes, all over the land.
The answer. from a religious source,)
is, do by others as you would that
they would do unto YOU Unfor-
tunately human nature is not in
condition. to put that very excellent
maxim into practice.
We have had that and similar doe
trines, preached for thousands OF
years, yet, although there has been a
general improvementin human nature.

selfish to-day, as it was two thousand
years ago. Every unfortunate who
has been thrown upon the charity OF
the world. knows, that it is cold as an
ice berg. Yours is the only news

TO remedy the effects of the unWise
legislation of congress. for the last
eight years. may we'll trouble the
wisest brains. At present, we are
drifting upon IL troubled sea. without
helm or compass. With the best rem

again to prosperity. II people cannot

will have to learn this way;for trouble
will come until we learn how to avoid
it.
The first step towards remedy, is
for the people. regardless of party, to
select the very best men that it is
possible to find and put them at the
head of affairs in every state, county
and town. with the great object in

So long as it scOsts SO much time,

appears as the champion of the rich

advocacy has provoked storm of
criticism. and Brother Henry rises to

Sir. II. W. Beecher has been the
spoiled child of success. and that has
educated him out of all sympathy
with the poor and toiling millions. the
! stamina of our nation. and the crea-
tors of its wealth. If ever he. in the
early part of his career. under the

stringent economy. (his bread and

son. and 'swhen Ieshurun waxed fat. he
kicked.
In order To meet the depression of
the times he recommends that the
turn of the screw should be applied to
the toiling classes alone. Does he not
know that his present fare. his s'bread
and water panacea. this reducing the
. American workman TO the level OF

IT is said the Cabinet is seriously con-
sidering proposition to disband four
fifths of the regular army, to avoid the
necessity of the extra session of Congress
1t is believed that the Democratic mem
bers will positively refuse to appropriate
another dollar for army purposes. On
the whole, there is no especial reason
why the military forceoccurs should not
be reduced. Ithasbeen shown that when
ever the necessity for display of mil
itary force abundant volunteers can be
promptly secured; and that volunteer
soldiers are fully as affective as regular
troops. There is practically no trouble
with the Indians now and no real object
in keeping up even the present small
army.
