However great may be the heats by day
which in midsummer often rise to a hun

always cool and refreshing. Neither is
sun-stroke known. Nor are the violent
thunder-storms with which nature with

after having exhausted its utmost efforts
in the way of oppressive warmth. The

up the dust from the dry surfaces over
which they pass, and produce painful
dust-storms of two or three days dura-

DR.. J. M. Reid, Secretary of the Mis-
~sionary Society, tells a story relative to
himself. Once, when editor, he was in
vited to- preach in Chicago. He was
taken to the church by a good brother,
who landed him there early, and, no one
being present but himself, he took a seat
in the church alone to mediate and rest
for the evening sermon. 1t was just at
dusk, and he heard persons engaged in
a prayer service in an adjoining
He listened. Presently a loud, jealous
brother engaged in prayer. He touched
upon varions matters, and invoked the
Divine blessing upon them, including
"the speaker of the evening"" DIR. Reid.
For him he prayed very much as follows
go Lord, bless him who is to speak to
us this evening he is a poor, weak man,
but make him a power. Bless the mess
age that he shall bring. We know that
he is only an editor, and that'he is rusty;
but, o Lord, rub the rust Off" DIR.
Reid said that the man prayed earnestly,
oblivious to the fact that "the editor
was listening and, as an emphasis to
his prayer, he (the Doctor) uttered q
hearty "Amen. "-bLethodist.

"You Dream too >,

One day, Sir William johnson, the
Indian agent in the Mohawk country,
under the Colonial Government, was un-
packing some clothing brought from
England. Hendrick, a famous Indian
chief was present, and took a strong
fancy for an embroidered coat, He
dare not ask for it, but next day he told
johnson a dream. 'Last night" said
he, ''me dream you say, Hendrick,
you've been good friend, and now I re-
ward you, and you give me the gold
coat" The white man pondered a mo-
ment, and then said: "You are right.
the coat is yours" Not long afterwards
Johnson told Hendrick he had been
dreaming. "And what did nv white
brother dream?" ''That you took me
by the hand and said: Sir William,
you have been my friend, and I will
show my love for you. I will give you
all the land on the Great River and
Canada Creek" The Indian was
amazed, for the tract was nearly 100, 600
acres in extent, and very choice land.
But he was not to be outdone in gener-
osity, and finally replied: "My pale
brother, the land is yours; but" he
added, after a long pause, 'Sir William,
We wont dream any more; you dream
too big for me-" The old chiefs title
was confirmed by the British Govern
ment, and the land was long known as
the Royal Characterization Weekly.

THANKSGIVING.

When the orchards with blossoms were blush
ing.
The willows unrolling their leaves,
And the fields with the tender wheat fiushinI
Not then went the toiler to labor,
The task of subduing tue earth,
With the sound of the pipe and the tabor,
With anthems of joyance and mirth.
Nor yet when professional lowers
Passed on through the light or the gloom,
When the vivid and picturesque hours
Laughed Quit a splendor of bloom.
When the oriole, royal and golden,
Flashed forth like a gem in the sun,
Still man by stern duty was holden,
Not yet was the victory won.
When the vines on the trellis were burdened
With clusters all purple and sweet;
When the hand of the worker was guerd0ne'
With bounty of harvests complete;
When wide over mountain and valley
Tit banners of autumn, unfurled
In a vast and magnificent rally,
Shed lustre and pomp DER the world
Then pausing to think of the story
OF promise, fulfllment and cheer,
Tn hope and the faith and the glory,
The crown of the beautiful year,
From the stress of our care-weighted living,
The strain of our hurrying days,
We break, and uplift a thanksgiving
To God, who is worthy of praise.
Aud what if the storms lie before us,
The days that are dreary and cold,
Since the love that is vigilant Ger US
Guards ever the young and the old,
Still the earnest e~ndeavor
With more than a measured reward,
And suffers our WEAKNESS never
To slip from the grasp of the Lord.
So, silver-haired father and mother,
So, middle-age sturdy and strong,
So, dear little sister and brother,
Join voices and hearts in the song;
To the sound of the pipe and the tabor
Weave chorals of gladness and mirth,
For the toiler may rest from his labor,
And plenty hath lowered the earth

Home Without a Woman.

In the goodness of our hearts can we
not pity the occupants of home with
out woman? Such home, how raw
charms as the rosebush without its GRIM
son roses Desolate as the desert with
out its CHEEKY restful oasis Free of
loves sweetest fragrance as the garden
without its darling flowers A home
without a woman AS well might day
be without its blazing sun, or night
without its lunar and diadem of dazzling
stars Truly, are they to be pitied who
live in earth's isolated retreats away
from womans loving charms. Thrice
blessed is he who daily basks in the sun
shiny smiles of mother, wife, or sister.
His home should be an earthly paradise,
a fit emblem of the habitation beyond
the skies. Fair readers, let your hearts
go out in purest sympathy for those
poor, lone beings who have not
mothers loving counsel, wife's holy
wooing, or sisters twining affection.
Their homes are upon earth's desert
waste, or along the rock-bound shores.
Blot woman from existence and the
world would be in midnight darkness.
She is the light of the world, mans
brightest flower, the poets grandest
theme. Where woman dwells not, the
home is without its charms and angel of
peace. O man, be not lacking in woman's
praise her sweet influences are as vast
as the ocean and as high as the heavens.
Let her, name be inscribed upon the
scroll of fame and every home on earth
enjoy her benighted charms. So mote
it be.-Anaicus an Cincinnati Farming

The New Market House.

The plan which has been presented to the
city council for a, new addition to our mar
ket house, and q remodeling and repairing
of the old one, is matter of vital IMPORT
ance to our growing and thriving city. The
plan is good one, and the work contem-
plated should be, we think, pushed to rapid
completion, to relieve the over-crowded
state of affairs which now exist in our mar
ket. More than that, the old building has
been pronounced unsafe and dangerous by
competent judges, and should be repaired
on that account at once.
The plan was drawn up by our popular
architect, Mr.. J. F. Baumann, under direc-
ton of the wide-awake chairman of the
market and building committee, Alderman
H. NJ Michaels. His committee were
authorized Friday night to receive bids for
the proposed work, which they will proceed
to do. We will have more to say on the
subject at another time,

their connection with that paper,
have connected themselves with the

most vigorous editorial writers in
the country, and withal gentleman
