An extract from a recent Negro
sermon: Beware, my hearers, how
you fall asleep, like that young woman
in the third gallery while Paul was
preaching and was smashed all to
smashes. And they took her up
twelve basket fulls And, bret bern,
whose wife shall she be in the resur-
rection?'

A man entered the dining-room of a

tion, and the rufiian was carried ont

The French soldiers in Tunis were
presented with little plates of metal on
which their names were engraved, to be
fastened to strings worn around their
necks. The soldiers were told thai
these tags would enable the survivors
to identify the bodies of those who
should fall in battle. 1t is not difficult
to think of an occasion more cheerful
than these presentations must have
been.

Americans are a unique people.
The men of Washington who three
months ago were heart broken because
Garfield had been shot are now split
ting their sides with laughter at the
daily jokes of bis assassin. Guiteau
is really so awfulIy funny, you know,
that after all it isn't so strange that he
should kill somebody, and good ma
tured community ought not to lay it
up against him.
When the fast trains now operated
between New York and Chicago ar
rive at the end of their run each engi-
neer steps around to the front OF bis
locomotive and brushes the dead birds
from the plate over the cow-catcher.
Birds miscalculate the speed of these
trains, and attempt to fly across the
track Immediately in front of the en-

A colored gallant who eloped from
Richmond, Virginia, with the daugh-
ter of William Brown, will be surpris-
ed, perhaps, when he reads the de-
kscription of his bride by one who
ST ould know In an advertisement Of
fering five dollars for her sarrest her
father describes the young woman as
being of dark gingerbread-color,
with busby head of hair and full
eyebrows Love may be blind but
the injured parent has no doubtas to the
accuracy of his vision.
In making up his forms, the fore
man of Montreal paper mixed an ar

Africa with recipe for making tomato

During the past three years they have
obtained firm footing in the interior
of the continent, and have sent forth
several missionaries into the equatorial
regions. They are accustomed to be-
gin their work by buying heather chill
dren and educating them. The easiest
and best way to prepare them is to
first wipe them with clean towel,
then place them in dripping-pans, and
bake them till they are tender. Then
you will have no difficulty in rubbing
them through a sieve, and will save
time by not being obliged to cut them
in slices and cook for several hours
Rev. DIR. John Hall, of New York,
has done wise and suggestive thing.
a thing that younger ministers of more
denominations than one might study
with profit. Having been elected
Chancellor of the University of the
City of New York, he felt it to be his
duty to consult the leading men of his
church, and they were unanimous in
the opinion that he coul1 not under
take the additional labor without dam
age to the great church Of which he is
the pastor. Dr. Hall was considerate
enough to decline the new appointment,
in view of the demands made upon
the pastor by the congregation under
his charge The principle involved in
this decision is one of preeminent i'm
portance 1t is that when a man be-
comes the pastor of church, he is not
at liberty to take upon himself such
additional care as shall impair his abil-
ity to serve his church with all the
he can command. Many
young ministers have acted on other
principles than this, and the interests
Of thoir churches as well as their own
reputation have been made to suffer by
it.
