The Noah's Ark Baptist Church
(colored) OF Louisville tried one of its
members for profanity the other day.
Next to the pastor he was the most
prominent man in the church-leader
OF the prayer meeting, superinten-
dent in the Sunday-school, and
preacher in the absence of the regular
pastor. One brother testified that as
he was gwine to his work on Monday
mornin' he heerd mQuty racket, he
did, down toward Brudder Jimson's,
jes' like a lot O men was a cussin'
and a hootin' and f1ingin' de name

den by hisself, a swearin' an per-
fanitivin' an rippin' out OATS as eff

OBJ him." Other witnesses gave a
similar testimony. The faces Of the
congregation reflected in lowering
frowns the impending doom OF
Brother Unison. The pastor asked
if that gentleman had anything to
say why he should not be expurifed
off'n de roll and then Brother jim
son majestically arose and calmly
said: Il would like to AK eff de
Lawd didn't make red peppers?"
The pastor replied that he did. II
would like to ak ct he didn't make it

pastor said he did. Il would like to
AK eff he didn't make so as it will not

liet futtered from the congregation.
The pastor scratched his head, eyed
his big toe and then inquired can

Jimson?" II was "Well, sir, re-
nounces you not guilty. Oar amt
nufin in de Bible at says man
shan't swar when he'sa sowin' pepper,

adjourned, and the members all shook
Brother Jimson's hand. 1t is ru-
mored that the witnesses who testified
against him are to be tried next for
not knowing more about the doctrines
OF the church.

The ThralldOm Of Evil.

Who among mortals, does not feel
at times, the thralldom Of evil; evil
desires, evil passions, evil thoughts
and evil purposes? And who does
not feel unhappy, condemned, de.
graded, by that thralldom We all
realize, often, the dominance of the
animal in our natures, over the spirit
ual. Animal appetites, animal lusts,
perverted passions; anger, jealousy,
envy, hatred, pride. Who that yields
habitually, or frequently to his lower
nature, can boast that he is freeman?
What, freeman, and restricted in
! his efforts by a body clogged, enfee-
bled, diseased by gluttony, inebria-
ton, or other excesses? A freeman,
and the subject Of passion that always
place him at disadvantage, in social
and business intercourse, and bring
misery in their train
AS we are all under bondage to sin,
subjects OF evil,it is a question OF the
highest importance to every individ-
ual, how can l break the chains that
bind me; how break down the walls
that imprison me; how overcome the
evil appetites and passions which en-
thrall me? All history bears evil

dence that man cannot overcome evil
by his own unaided power, fighting it
on it's own plane. The Master says
"Overcome evil with good" But
how are we to get the good ? There
is not enough Of it in man. We must
seek it of God, the infinite, eternal
Spirit of Goodness and Truth. We
must open the heart and realize the in
flowing of the Divine Love into our af-
lection, changing and renewing them
in his own likeness we must open
our mind to the reception of Divine
Wisdom SO that we may know the
truth, and the "truth shall make us
free"
It is only thus, by having our
spirits brought into unison with, and
subsection to the spirit of the Father
through the Son, that we may be
disenthralled, redeemed, elevated out
Of subsection to our natures and
brought to dwell in an atmosphere of
love, and bask in the sunlight Of eter-
nal truth.

Under her beautiful, dlmpled chin.

He Knew the Machine.

From the Western Farmer.
One day, just before harvest, an
Ohio farmer went to Cinninpati to
buy reaper. A delighted agent
collared the granger and dragged
him to his warehouse. AS they
walked down the well-stocked room,
the farmer, in a meditative mood,
quoted the line:
''There is a reaper whose name is Death,''
but before he could start the second
line the agent broke in: IL know it
sir. | know it like a book. We
handled that reaper one season, sir,
and I'd take $4,000 out of my pocket

damage that reaper did our business

sir. You don't want to look at it.

sir, and you don't want it. Now here

But the astonished farmer just inter
rupted him to say that he knew the
reaper he mentioned was an old
style, but he was certain that it did
its work well, though, all the same
it wasn't the kind he wanted, and he
had no idea of buying it to work on
his farm. He bought another reaper,
blood thirsty as Cossack, and red
as an autumn sunset, and the agent
told how nicely he sold reaper to
