A Brooklyn newspaper man received
1 note from n law firm, Smith, Jones &
Smith, notifying him that claim against
him for several dollars had been placed
in their hands for collection, and in
.tructing him that he could save him
self some trouble if he'd come around
and talk the matter over. The Journal
list was perfectly prepared to converse
on tho mbject, but disinclined to pay,
30 he dropped in on Smith, Jones 4
Smith, and notified them that he had
some business for them.

A Just Rebuke.

Some Englishmen were making an
excursion in New Zealand, and engaged
natives AS guides and to carry their lug
gage. On the first Sabbath, the Euro
peans were proposing to journey as usu-
al, but the natives said:
"No; we rest on the Sabbath.
The chief of the guides was Christian
man. and stood firm. The Englishmen,
like too many of their countrymen when
abroad. forgot the religion of their early
days. They got into a great rage, and
refused to pay them if they did not
obey orders. The natives asked
"Wnat are we to do with the law of
God2"
An Englishman answered:
"What have we to do with the law OF
God? What is that to us?"
One of the natives retorted:
"You have much to do with that. II
it were not for the law OF God we should
not remain quiet on your refusing to
pay us for our labor. We should have
taken by force what you have, and
robbed, if not killed, you. You have that
much to do with the law of God"
What was the end of this strange
scene we do not know, but we hope that
among these Englishmen there was suf-
iicient manliuess and good feeling to ac-
ccpt the unexpected rebuke, and to
honor the Maori for his frmness and
principle

Inc Power OF Kisses.

When Charles III. was making his tri-
nmphant progress through England GER
tain country ladies' who were presented
to him, instead of kissing the royal hand
in their simplicity held up their pretty
lips to be kissed by the King, Il blundcr
no one would more willingly excuse than
the lover of pretty Nell Gwynne. Geor-
glana, Duchess of Devonshirr, gave
Steele, the butcher, a kiss for his vote
nearly century since, and another
equally beautiful woman, Jane, Duchess
OF Gordon, recruited her regiment IN a
similar manner. A kiss from his mother
made Benjamin West an artist. Kiss
me, mother, before sleep" How sim

head sinks contentedly on the pillow
LOT all is peace and happiness within.
The bright eyes and rosy lips
close, and the little darling il soon
reeveling in the bright and sunny dreams
OF innocence. Yes, kiss, mother, for
that goodnight kiss will linger in the
memory when the giver lies moldering
IN the grave. The memory OF gentle
mothers kiss has cheered many lonely
wanderers pilgrimage and has been the
beacon light to illuminate his desolate
neart; life has many stormy billow to
cross, many rugged path to climb. and

marring care to disturb its peaceful
dreams. The parched and fevered lips
