careless peope--those who were neither 10.
tidels nor drunkards, but who just didn't
care anything about the church.
They would much rather roam
about the streets aimlessly for half the
night than to come and spend q half hour
in the house of God. They could not possibly
endure to listen to a good sermon and ell.
evating music, but they could chatter
ameng themselves for hours about all man
ner of nonsense. To sit for half an hour
upon board bench, even though it had a
back to 1t, and listen to sermon
would be positive torture to them. But
they would sit for halt night upon an
old dry goods box ora beer keg without
any support to- their lame backs and sur
round themselves with thegvile fumes Of
Tobacco smoke and indulge in obscene
anecdotes. He had met, in short walk of
a few squares, he thought, more people
just wandering about without any object
IN view, than were assembled in all
the churches in the city at that
moment. There were too many people
who acted in open opposition to the church
by simply disregarding its claims upon
them, and caring nothing at all about it. The
drinking masses, he thought, were another,
and very powerful aud dangerous impedi.
ment. Every man who INDUCED in intoxi-
eating drinks, even though he
were not "a drunkard, was an
active opponent Of religion. He was
acting contrary to the doctrines of the
church and lent support TO its bitterest
enemies. These evils. he said, were visible
to every one and while he thought that
they ought in some way to be corrected,
ne would not suggest the remedy, partly
because he did not know the prop.
per remedy himself but he hoped
hat the reform element in the community
would arouse itself from its stupor and
work while it is yet day, etc.
The above is necessarily incomplete,

will give the reader q faint idea of wha,
he complete sermon must have been.

A SAD ACCIDENT AND A HEROIC
ACT

As the south bound train on the Cairo
and st. LOUIS narrow gauge railroad was
passing at or near Columbia yesterday, a lit
tie girl attempted to cross the track in front
of the train, but slipped and cll,and before
she could get up the engine struck her and
threw her upon the cow-catcher. Fortu-
natey it was noticed by the fireman Char
ley Lett who rushed forward and caught
the child Just as she was rolling off on to
the track. Although stunned and bleed
ing from terrible cash in her head'
strange to say the child was not seriously
injured. But for the timely aid and noble
act of the fireman she would nave been
crushed to death by the train.

Purchasing Trees.

MANY oraers are being given in the
new Western States for fruit trees, and
it is more than probable that some tree
agents and pcddlers are employing the
same methods in securing such orders
as have been made use of heretofore.
We venture a word of warning to those
who desire to purchase fruit trees Gas
we have often done h%eretofOre) in re-
gard to buying of itinerant agents.
There are those engaged in the BUSH
ness who deal fairly with their CUSTOM
ers, delivering trees as per contract. and
hOnorably fulfilling their obligations.
But all tree agents are not of this stripe.
They carry with them jars containing
large specimens of natural fruit, and
claim that the trees they sell will pro-
duce Just such fnIit as are shown by the
samples Generally this is the merest
p~retense.
.A>correspondemt in a Western State
wrote No not long since that certain
parties Of the genus "tree peddler."
travelled in portions Of that State last
season armed and equipped with pic
lures. Of wonderful fruits, and also ex-
hibited large and attractive fruits in
jars, claiming to sell nothing that would
not produce fruit equal to the speci-
mems shown. They gathered in from
$1,000 to 8 1000 worth OF orders last
summer; the stock was delivered in
September, and it could not have been
wel-ripened wood Suitable for trans
planting at that time. Very little of
this stock lived-nor is it surprising
that such was the case. Thus. every
year, this unfortunate experience is re-
peated, and il complaints are made to
the agents, they are answered, If no
ticed at all. with a charge of neglect or
improper treatment in setting out tho
trees, or subsequent acknowledgement.
These things are great detriment to
planting fruit and other trees in the
newer parts of the country. There are
but few localities in this entire country
where fruit cannot be grown, if accii-
mated. or suitable kinds are planted
and well cared for. But the legitimate
nurseryman who has grown such trees
and offers them for sale is met with the
objection that it is Of no use to plant
fruit trees. The director sometimes
has been victimized, and says that he
bought so many dollars worth and the
trees all died. What else could be ex-
pected when, rs q rule, such trees were
of unmatured stock!
The safe course to pursue, If trees
from a distance are to be procured, il
to buy of the duly-authorized and &C
credited agent of some well-known and
responsible nursery. selecting only such
trees IS have proved hardy and other
wise suitable for the locality where
they are desired; or. better still. if
there is . nursery in the region of the
home Of him who desires to buy trees,
let him obtain there such trees as he
wants. There need be no danger in
that case of being imposed upon II il
for the interest of the nurSeryman to
deal honorably and honestly by his
customer&s He knows that if he sells
unripe and worthless trees, or such as
are not true to name, he will suffer in
business and in reputation. If he deals
fairly and his trees live and thrive when
well taken care of, he knows that it
win rebound to his advantagc--Hairie
