The Reliable Man.

The reliable man is always there when
he is wanted. You do not have to send
to twenty different places after him; if
he is not at home, his wife can tell you
where he is. The reliable man always
tells his mission to his wife.
He is not fool enough to marry wo-
man he cannot trust.
He is not much of talker, but he
. thinks great deal. He looks at sub
ject in all its bearings. His judgments
are unbiased. If he should be elected
Governor, he will carry State affairs with
just and firm hand.
In private life, he will always have
plenty of kindling-wood ready in the
morning No running round in the cold
for him. before he has made his toilet
He won't be likely to whip his children
when they don't deserve it, He can
bear allusion to religious or political
belief, which does not accord with his
own, without going into tantrums.
lie can give advice, and keep his tenn
per if it is not taken and followed.
He knows there are people in the world
beside himself. He believes that this
planet will continue to be run with a
moderate degree of success after he shall
sleep with his fathers.
He never tells what he would have
done ''if he had only been there"
If he makes you promise, you know
he will keep it, unless he dies before the
time for its redemption. If he states q
fact for fact, you know that you can
credit the statement If he sells you a
horse, and warrants him 'sound," you
need not look for SPAWN or ringbone,
after the first days hard driving.
His word is as good as his bond. He
is honest; you can trust him to do as he
agrees. You need not watch him, he
| will do Just as well without it, He has
respect unto himself and would be
ashamed to have his own soul convict
him of dishonesty.
If you are in trouble, You know you
can expect help from him. If you are
'tdown in the world" he will stand by
you. If other friends have forsaken you,
he viii uphold and support you.
| In society, the reliable man is worth
| his weight in gold. In the church he is
| invaluable; he will pass the contribution
| box, when the wardens are laid up with
| bad colds; he will take care of the min
/ istef's house when he goes away for a
days pleasuring; he will help the ladies
| put down the new vestry carpet, and he
ready to stir the oyster stew, or tend the
elevator from the kitchen, when the So
ciety have an ''old folks supper"
| All the girls like him, and all the boys
respect him, and his wife is proud OF
him, and lays great emphasis on what
"my husband" says-for she knows he is
reliable. And we devoutly wish there
were more like him. Kate Thorn, in N
Y. Weekly.

Harry. the Indian slayer.

Once there was most excellent title
boy. He belonged to q nice 81 sdav
school class, and one time zyhen his
teacher had offera q <l6nbl etbarrellet
shotgun to fhe boy who should fecite the
greatest number of Bible verses, the lit.
tie boy stood up and repeated twenty
seven million of verses without missing
a word. His name was Harry, and he
got the gun.
Well, Harry had read great deal
about the Indians, and how they scalp
folks, and he determined to ge for
patriot and clean out the savages. So be
bought some ire-crackers to load the gun
with and went out on the plains. He
didn't see any Indians for day or two.
but he prayed every night that he might
get crack at them before long, and like
the prayers of ali good little boys his
were answered. One day al Indian
about nine feet long, passed his way.
Harry aimed at him, but the Indian took
him by the ear and yanked him into cap
tivity. But Harry was not afraid He
knew that Providence looks after good
little boys, and so he wiped his nose and
appeared cheerful.
"WhaI are you doing here, little boy?"
asked the Indian, running his thumb
along the edge Of his knife.
Hunting Indians, said Harry.
Caught any yet p asked the Indian.
mo, replied Harry, none but you.
Are you good little boy ?" inquired
the Indian.
Yes" answered Harry, .sI know
twenty-seYen million Bible verses.
Are you prepared to die y asked the
Indian.
"oh yes, SIR said Harry. "rm al
ways ready to die.
| Then the Indian put him in an iron
pot, and Harry began to boil. In little
while he was cooked, and the Indian
called his family to supper. They sat
| around, ten OF them, and smacked their
| lips over him until he was all gone. and
then they washed the 4 hes and put
them away in the pantry.
Pretty presently they began to feel
funny. They were so heavy they
couldn't move around. The medicine
men came, but could do nothing, and
after o while they died. When fh
came to bury them they rattletl like
dice-box So the medicine men cut them
open and found them fltsl Of Bible verses.
That was what killed them. They hadn's 5
noticed them while they were eating
Harry, and he was avenged.
You should all go TO Sunday school
and learn your Bible. Some time you
may want to go for patriot, and Il, 5esf
know lots of Bible yon are safe, for the
biggest, strongest savage on the Western
prairie could not hold miliionfh part
of the verses that Brooklyn Sunday
school youugster has ja1nmed down his
throat every Sunday morning.

LITTLE RED R.DIseHooD.-The was
a real case of little Red Ridinghood and
the wolf at one of our hotels the other
morning. A large Newfoundland dog
had strayed into the building during the
night, and, after wandering about in vain
search for his master, finally entered the
sleeping apartment of two little girls,
daughters of the proprietor, whose room
adioined that of their parents. In the
morning the mother OF the twins was
aroused from slumber by the piercing
shrieks Of one of the children, and rush
ing hastily to her room, the sight that
met her gaze seen in wilderness would
have frozen blood, but in the midst of a
civilized hotel life it only called forth
hearty laugh. There stood the great
bear-like dog with his forepews on the
bed, licking the hands of the screaming
child, while he wagged his tail in perfect
good humor, wholly UNCONSCIOUS Of the
fact that to her excited imagination he
had been playing the role OF the wolf in
the story book, and had already more
than half deyoured little Red Riding
hood by his great big eyes, mouth and
ears.

Such an Unreasonable Doctor.

One of our leading physicians was re-
Gently aroused at night by a frightful
knocking at the door. Sticking his head
out of the window he asked what was the
matter.
"Oh, doctor, it is my wife p
81 beg your pardon, but haven't the
honor Of your acquaintance, and am
not accustomed"
81 know it, doctor, but her life is at
stake. If you only knew how much l
love her ! For heavens sake beg you y
and he went on for considerable time
in this fashion, until the doctor relented,
in spite of the cold winter night. He
dressed himself, went out, waded far
through the snow, prescribed and saved
the cherished woman. Several days
passed, and, hearing nothing of any
pay, he sent in his bill. Nothing.
Then he sent collector. The devoted
husband greeted the dun with anger, ex-
claiming
go to the devil The idea of paying
that bill for a woman who has since run
off with another man - New Orleans
Picayune.

prudent AND VIRTuous. II no.
ticed lately, but cannot say where, in
the newspaper report of trial, that a
young woman in service was represented
as saying that she was as prudent as any
lady, the context showing that she meant
virtuous. Now, was this use of "pru-
dent" peculiar to herself (for many peo-
pie unconsciously, from want of accuracy,
invent new meanings. while some, espe-
pecial1y poets, do it consciously, or is
the word so used in any other country or
countries, and if so, where? / need
scarcely point out that prudent can never
mean so much as virtuous. A prudent
woman may be virtuous, but she is not
necessarily so; she may be virtuous
neither in thought nor action, but only
prudent enough to keep her lack of yir-
tue hidden from her neighbors Some
thing very similar is, however. to be
found in French, where sage means not
only wise and prudent, but also chaste.

HOis Ragged at NOrthiield and Brought TO
st. Paul
Saturday afternoon United States Mar
shall McLaren received telegram from City
Marshal Wheeler, of Mortified, that he had
arrested a party there for passing counter
felt money. Deputy United States Marshal
Brackett was sent down after the prisoner,
and returned with him and committed him
to Jail yesterday. The alleged counterfeit
er and "shover of the queer" goes by the
name of VIM. Mcintyre, and has
the alias of Frank Howard. DE Is young
man about "a years old, and has sporting
procliyities. He's been a mysterious resi-
dent of or Ioafer about Northheld since
last fall. At all times he seemed flush with
money, neat in apparel, yet no one seemed
to exactly know where he lived or even where
he had his Immaculate shirt fronts done up.
On Saturday he was around
the city as usual, reappearlng
as il were after an absence of periodical
kind. He had occasion or took occasion to
make several purchases, say five at any rate.
teach place he offered SIS national bank
bill in PAYMENT. VIM. Embry took one OF
them. SO did 81. j. Erred and others, among
whom was M. P. Norton, of the Northtleld
National bank. He soon discovered that
his So bill was
counterfeit, and it followed
pretty soon that some four others, which
MCINTYRE had passed, were Of the same
kind. Information was given the city mar
shall, and McIntyre's arrest was effected
without trouble, he not having thought 1t
necessary to get out of town,
Tho counterfeits are said. to be well execu-
ted. and liable to deceive unless given close
scrutiny. They are on different Eastern
banks, no two passed being on the same
bank.
Now that Mcintyre is arrested, suspicion
about him is run up to mountainous proper
tons. II is said that last fall disreputable
and suspicious house was established IN or
near Castle Rock, and that it is the rendez-
vous for Mcintyre and others Of his kind.
In fact, it is believed that besides passing
counterfeit money, that the gang having
their headquarters at this house are en-
gagged in horse stealing, and that some OF
the many horses lost in the neighborhood
can be directly traced up to the door OF TINS
domicile. At any rate, very large-slzed
investigation is to follow the arrest OF Nc
Intyre.
