A MINISTER'S VIEWS OF LIFE, -
The flowing was taken down yer
batim in shori-h&ud &s the words
fell from the lips of a broad>faced,
welI-fed looking Methodist minister,
who was preaching in a country
school house Brethren, much has
been said concerning preachers who
take delight 10 the good things of
this world. | am one who thinks it
very right and proper for a minister
to eat heartily and enjoy himself
generally. Life is short, and the
whole earth is mans. Man cannot
live on bread alone, nor religion
alone. While it is true that Chris
tian faith gives a glorious comfort
not to be found elsewhere, it is also
true that a yellow-legged chicken,
when properly cooked, furnihses an
essential joy not especially antsgo-
nistic to orthodox religion. Act
Justly, be charitable, pray fervently,
eat heartily, and, my word for it,
you will be happy

COLD PEOPLE.

1t 10 the nature of some people to
gush. Heaven endowed them with
large emotional apparatus. They
have warm affections, grow excited
at triaes, embrace you with ferven-
cy, pledge eternal friendship, and
mean, for the time being, all their
vows of constsncy. Doubtless they
fill necessary place in the world,
serving to give warmth and color to
the aspects in social life that would
otherwise seem cold and bare. They
generally belong, however, to that
class of people who experience con-
siderable variations of temperament.
They have high days and low ones,
their moods of exaltation and de
preston. They are in glsring con-
trast to the cold and equ bic people,
who are never put out, never enthu'
siastic, never Hurried and never
goaded into delicious indiscretions,
These are the kind of people who
are apt to make life q success
Their temperamental GOODNESS ena-
bles them to organize Ieisurely, with
out being perturbed by the Autter Of
emotion. They sit still and calcu-
late while the rest of the world is
,corched with fever heat or writhes
like @ snake 10 the flames 1t is the
cold people who keep their heads
above water while neighbors drown,
and put snug little sums of money ill
the bank while their friends are
starving.

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE. The Phila
deIphia Press gives an account of a
two year old child falling from a
second story window without being
harmed. Its fall was broken by
partially touching woman's should
er and falling into basket in which
she had some small wares, light goods
doubtless, which she was in the habit
of peddling. Mrs. Oppenhelmer, the
mother, ran down expecting to see
her little boy dashed to pieces when
to her unuttersble joy she found him
perfectly unframed. The grateful
parents rewarded the basket woman
literally, who said, sit wasn't ms,
mum, but Providence" as she curt
sled her thanks.

remarked that the pioneers are dead
and that the soldiers alluded to have
gotten probably more gratitude in
the shape of cash than they fairly
deserved.
