One of those unnaturally bright children
who are always getting people into Difficult

"Hu-u-sh," whispered his mother, eau

continued the hopeful; its a woman's
name; say, whose going home to Dinah
Moore ?"

voice, you're disturbing the meeting. Ii

"Dine no more! o, una, don't they eat
anything there?" His mother explained
as well as she could, and Willie sat still for
half minute, his bright eyes rowing about
the church. Then be asked in shrill whis-
per MA, Is God out of town." "No-o-o,
no-no," answered the distracted woman

child. The choir sung him down, but as
the meeting closed with a moment Of ST.

Salaries and Those who Earn Them.

Curious anomalies are found on looking
into the salary question. The manager of
the Canadian Pacific railway, Mr.. Van
Horne, gets the enormous salary of $780,
600 the cashier of she Pacific mills at
Lawrence gets $4,000, the same as the
president of the United States and ruler of
55,0O0,O0 of people. The janitor of big
business building in New York, a mere por-
ter who can barely read and write, makes
$1,000 year, while a trusted teller of
great bank IN the same edifice, responsible
for the care of millions of money and Sc
curItes. is thought well paid at 81 800
There are cashiers in Wall street practically
controlling huge bank accounts receiving
but Sl2 week, while porters and check
jumpers get much as S25 The health
officer Of the port of New York draws 500
900 year, while the secretary Of state at
NdshIngtou receives $4,000. The first may
be an obscure country physician, the other
the most distinguished citizen Of the nation.
Descending lower IN the scale, We find that
freight handlers are rIgidly held to : cents
per hour, while the same class under the
name Of longshoremcn, are paid 40 cents
Der hour. The street car conductor. who
must be a miracle Of patience and long g-suf-
ierIug intelligence, tolls - hours a day for
- week, while a custom house messen-
ger loHs around hours a day for S24 a day
and so on through long range Of calIings
The CIVILIZATION of the future will not
achieve much unless it accompItshes some
thing like equality IN these things.

DREAMING THE WILL or A CHILD.-We
utterly repudiate the idea OF breaking the
will of a child. His will so it be enlight-
ened and Chrlstianized, may prove his sal
yatlon. Fifty years ago Rev. Henry Ware
told US OF his Changing one Sunday with a
minister famous for domestic discipline At
morning prayers one of the bakers dozen
of children tickled another, who committed
the enormous sin of laus ming. Whereupon
the mother seized the offender and almost
flung him out to the cook, whose blows
were heard for some moments IN the hushed
house. DIR. Wares impressive comment
was that he watched that pious household
grow up; all of them without exception
went wrong, several of the boys dying OF
dissipation.-[ Cambridge Tribune.

A Stranger who wants 10 Find His
Friends,

Among the passengers from the West, who
arrived at the Baltimore & Potomac depot
early this morning, were number of omi-
grants who had previously gone. West "to
grow up with the country" Most or the tray
elers went through, but there was ono young
man, a smoOth-faced youth, who wore shoot.
ing coat trimmed with green, who remained
behind. He could speak no word OF tho Eng.
lish language, and was very much discon'
serted as 10 his future movements. He was
approached by u reporter OF THE CRITIC, who,
after interrogating him, learned that tho lat
ter had friends in this city and wished to find
them. In tho meantime he retired to Police
Headquarters, and Is still there waiting for
his friends. The youth came from Chicago
and gives his name as John Schaffer.
