FAIRLY OUrw1rrED.-Old Squire c.
was postmaster, storekeeper and autocrat of
his village. He was the wealthiest man in it,
but had the reputation Of being also the sharp
est and hardest man in his dealings with the
poor. yet drunken loafer in the village once
outwitted him. The loafer-an old sot gen.
orally known as "Sam"-came one day to the
store trundling wheelbarrow. The squire
was seated on the front stoop of his store, and
called out: swell, Sam, what are you after
now9'
"Why' Squire c." drawled the old ras-
cal most obsequiously, 81 want barrel of
your best wheat -four, and want to pay cash
for it, too.''
"Oho!" said the squire, That's it, is it?
Well, George" turning to his clerk-"Roll
out barrel of that Genesee -four, and help
Sam to put it on his wheelbarrow." This
was soon done and Sam very quietly began to
wheel it away. The squire had not received
his money, and he sprang up at once, and
called: "Sam, Sam, you said you wanted to
pay the cash for that -four. Where's your
money!"
"Wa'al, Squire c., ,"drawled Sam, $50 I
do want to pay cash for it, but, you see, L
can't "-trundling the wheelbarrow off more
and more rapidly with every word.
Squire C-was so astounded at the fel-
lows impudence that he let the -four 60.

az s'There is no greater mistake than to sup
pose that Christians can impress the world by
agreeing with it, No; it is not conformity
that we want; it is not being able to beat the
world in it's own way but it is to stand apart
and above it, and to produce the impression of
a holy and separate life-this only can give us
a true Christian power"

ARCTIC CHEEK.-A hundred years from

be cut up into canes, and the latter sold at q
dollar apiece as relics Of building in which
was exhibited the most colossal instance of
arctic cheek in American annals. A gorge

stranger from Chicago was requested to leave
the house after it was discovered that the only
effects, for a two weeks beard-bill, he possess

socks and bushel of saw dust.

the guest, twirling his oroide chain. ~ am

and he rang for porter.

THE countenance is pale and leaden-
L colored, with occasional hushes, or
a circumscribed spot on one or both
cheeks; the eyes become dull; the pu-
pills dilate; an azure semicircle runs
along the lower eye-lid; the nose is ir-
ritated, swells, and sometimes bleeds;
a swelling of the upper lip; occasional
headache, with humming or throbbing
of the ears; an unusual secretion of
saliva; Shiny or furred tongue; breath
very foul, particularly in the morning;
appetite variable, sometimes voracious,
with knawing sensation of the stom-
ach, at others, entirely gone; fleeting
pains in the stomach; occasional
nausea and vomiting; violent pains
throughout the abdomen; bowels ir-
regular, at times costive; stools Shiny;
not unfrequently tinged with blood;
belly swollen and hard; urine turbid;
respiration occasionally difficult and
accompanied by hiccough; cough
sometimes dry and convulsive; uneasy
and disturbed sleep, with grinding of
the teeth; temper variable, but gener-
ally irritable, &c.

SURE ENOUGH, How ABOUT THIS ?-How
do you account for this? In the lodge, the
marshal is directed to retire to the ante.room
to introduce Bill Smithers and Tom Brown,
in language something like the following
"Brother Marshal, you will retire to the ante
room and respectfully inform His High Might
iness the Most Puissant William Smithers,
and His Ine6able Potency the Very Venera-
BILE Thomas Brown, that this reverent body
awaits the distinguished honor of their IRA
dating presence" Then the marshal goes
out and says, Cali ready, Bill; come, Tom,
hurry up" In the army, on the contrary,
this order was reversed like this: General
Bombastes yells out to his aide, go down
there to the forks of the road-and 60 as
though the devil was after you-and ask Col.
Sordnot what in - he means by being so long
in getting into liner" Away goes the aide on
the gallop, which moderates first into sober
trot and then walk as he nears Col. Sordnot,
whom he addresses with great formality, say
ing, Colonel, General Bombastes sends his
compliments, and desires that you move your
regiment into line as speedily as possible. e.

w AS rule, people are not half so fearful
of being minute behind the starting time Of
church or Sunday-school services, as they are
of being too late for railway train. How a
man. or woman, will fly around to be in sea-
son for that next train, when they want to
take it! And how leisurely the same person
will be in making ready for church or Sunday
school Is it because one can enter there af-
ter time ? Perhaps it would improve matters
if the church or Sunday-school doors were
closed sharply at the exact minute Of starting,
with big placard on the outside: "No get
ting aboard after the train has started J"

TRUE-There is no royal road to learning,
said the old philosopher, and there are no
short cuts to heaven, and no dead-heading it
over the road, or going on half-price tickets.
If man has any life beyond the grave, it must
be just what he makes it here therefore, the
only way that we can have our desires is to
begin to live heaven on earth. 1t is very
simple thing, and the directions might be
printed on a common-sized address card-the
ten commandments Oh one side, and the ten
beatitudes on the other

"PAY JOHN WILLIAMS" a church
meeting not far from Boston, man whose
credit was not the best, and who was some
what noted for his failure to meet his obliga-
tions, arose to speak. The subject for the
evening was, "What shall do to be saved 2'
Commencing in measured tones he quoted the
passage, "What shall do to be saved ?" He
paused and again more emphatically asked
the question, "What shall do to be saved %
Again, with increased solemnity and impress
siveness of manner, he repeated the moment
Gus inquiry, when voice from the assembly
answered in clear and distinct tones, 500 and
pay John Williams for that yoke Of orea yoat
bouqht of him % The remainder Of the gen.
tleman's address was not reported. All pres
ent appreciated the fitness Of the unexpected
word in season, and were saved from hearing
lengthy exhortation from swindler's lips.
The incident has led US to think that there
are good many people who, before they make
much progress in walking in the way of saliva
tion themselves, or guiding others therein,
will have to $50 and pay John Williams" or
John somebody else, the money that they hon
estly owe them. There is no man shrewd
enough to pursue course Of dishonesty and
trickery and still retain the favor of God in
this world, or good hope of glory for the
world to come. It is best to settle up, square
up, and pay up, and then it will be in order to
talk in the prayer meeting. Christian.

He proceeded on his journey. and sure

instant, and was received by the hostler with

narrow gorge roars the rapidly yswelling
stream, and, as it nears the spectator, It has
swollen to a resistless torrent. The treat
