Amusing The Crowd.

A crowd waiting for train at an up.
country railroad station had heap OF
fun the other day. An old man came
there with small tin can which he SCI
down on the platform. There was quite
a crowd present, and among the gang a
farmer with a big yellow dog and a boy
with his satanic majesty in his heart
The boy set out to have what he con.
sidersd fun. While the farmer and the
owner of the can were not looking he
inveigled the unsuspicious canine over
by the can. Then he produced cord
and tied the can to the dogs tail. These
proceedings were watched by many OF
the bystanders with keen interest
When the job was done, the boy drew
away to give the dog chance to run.
But the animal didn't 1t just stood and
looked miserable. The crowd whOOped
to start him. The cOmmOtiOn attracted
the notice of the farmer and the owner
of the can. The farmer was awful mad.
He wanted to wallOp whoever tied the
thing to his dog. and was about to release
him. But the old man interposed.
Run for your livesp he cried.
"There's dynamite in that can, and the
minute the dog starts things will be scat
tered round here, like an earthquake had
called"
A great change came DER the crowd.
Their looks of mirthful interest faded.
They turned and fled. The dog saw
them going, and started after them.
The farmer was nearly frantic. He
wanted to save his dog, but, after hesita-
ton, turned and fled, too. After him
went the dog, on the gallop, dragging
the can. 1t didn't explode at first, but
they knew it was liable to at any min
ute, and they ran like deer. The train
came to the station, and the man who
had not fled boarded it and left. Finally
the can got detached from the dogs tail.
Then the terror of the mob had subsisded.
They returned to the station. Somebody
discovered that the cover of the can had
come off. The can contained only two
eggs. Half the crowd had intended to
take the train, but by fleeing had lost it.
They were the maddest men alive. They
couldn't get at the old man for he had
gone on the train. But they took hold
of that boy, and while two held him, the
others took turns with the single. His
yells were heard two miles away, and the
hide on certain parts of him is all tired
out. He won't try to amuse a crowd
again.-BOstOn Post.

mOrrOw-be there is no tomorrow
it is but a visionary receptacle for unre-
deemed promises: an added egg in the
great nest of the future: the debtors

dishonest, lOw-minded sons of Satan, l
don't suppose you will ever pay the
printer, as long as you have no reputa-
ton to lOse-nO character to sustain
and no morals to cultivate. But, let me
tell you, my friends, that il you don't do
it your paths to the tomb will be strewn
with thOrns-yOu will have to gather
your daily food from brambles-yOur
children will die of the dysentery, and
you yourselves will never enjoy the
blessings of health. | once called on q
sick person whom the doctors had given
up as gone case. asked him If he
had made his peace with his Maker? He
said he thought he had squared up. /
inquired If he had forgiven all his enc
mics? He replied, yes. / then asked
him If he had made his peace with the
printer? He hesitated for q moment,
and then said he believed he owed him
something like about two dollars and
fifty cents, which he desired to have
paid before he said goodbye to the
world. His desire was Immediately
gratifed; and from that moment he be-
came cOnvalescent. He is now living
in the enjoyment of health and prosper
ity-at peace with his own conscience,
his God, and the whole world. Let this
be an example to you, my friends.
Patronize the printer: take the papers:
pay for them in advance: and your days
will be long upon the earth, and over
flowing with the honey of happiness.
My hearers pay all your debts and
keep an honorable reckoning with your
fellow men: but, above all. keep paying,
by daily instalments, that everlasting
debt of gratitude which you owe to Him
from whom you obtained capital suf-

The wondicrfuI Lake.

In Colorado is ten-acre field, which
Is no more nor less than subterranean
lake covered with soil about eighteen
inches deep. On the soil is cultivated a
field Of corn, which produces thirty or
forty bushels to the acre. If any one
will take the trouble to dig hole the
depth of spade-handle, he will find it
to fill with water, and by using a hook
and line, fish four or five inches long
can be caught. The fish have neither
scales nor eyes, and are perch-like in
shape. The ground Is black mari in
nature, and in all probability was at
one time an open body of water, on
which accumulated vegetable matter,
which has been increased from time to
time, until now it has crust sufficient
ly strong and rich to produce fine corn,
though it has to be cultivated by hand,
as it is not strong, enough to bear the
weight of horse. While harvesting,
the hands catch great strings of fish by
making hole through the earth. A
person rising on his heel and coming
down suddenly can see the growing corn
shake all around him. Any one having
the strength to drive a rail through the
crust will find, on releasing it, that it
will disappear altogether, : Scientific

ONs.Y IN DREAMS.


Heaven is not reached by single bound
But we build the ladder by which we rise;
From the l0wly earth to the vaulted skies,
And we mount TO the summit round by round.
I cou mt this thing to be grandly true:
That noble deed is step toward God
Lifting the soul from the common sod
To purer air and broader view.
We rise by things that are under our feet;
BY what we master Of good and gain,
N BY the pride depOsed and passion slain,
And the vanquished ills that we daily meet.
We hope, we resolve, we aspire, we trust,
M When the morning calls to life and light;
But our hearts grow weary, ere the night.
Our lives are trailing the sOrdid dust.
We hope, we aspire, we resolve, we pray,
And we think we mount the air on wings
Beyond the recOil Of sensual things,
While our feet still cling TO the heavy clay.
Wings for the angels, but feet for men
We may borrow the wings to find the way,
We may hope and resolve, aspire and pray
But our feet mnst rise, or we fall again.
Only in dreams is a ladder thrown
From weary earth to the sapphire walls,
But the dreams depart, the vision falls,
And the sleeper aWakes on his bed OF stone.
Heaven is not reached by single bound,
But we build the ladder by which we rise,
From the lOwly earth to the vaulted skies,
And we mount the summit round by round.
