1t is not wise to work constantly uu
to the highest rate of which we are
capable. If the engineer of the rail
road were to keep the speed of his
train up to the highest rate he could
attain with his engine, it would soon
be used up. If horse is driven at the
top OF his speed for any length of time,
he is ruined. 1t is well enough to try
the power, occasionally, of horse or
engine, by putting on all the motion
they will bear, but not continuously.
All machinists construct their machines
so that there shall be reserve force.
If the power required is four horse,
then they make n horse power. In
this case it works easily and lasts long.
A man who has strength enough to do
twelve honest hours of labor i'm twen-
ty-fOur, and no more, should do but
nine or ten hOms' work. The reserve
power keeps the body in repair. 1t
rounds out the frame to full proper
tions. 1t keeps the mind cheerful,
hopeful, happy. The person with no
reserve force is always incapable of
taking on any more responsibility than
he already has. A little exertiOn puts
him out of breath. He cannot increase
his work for an hour without danger of
explosion. Such are generally pale,
dyspeptic, bloodless, nervous, irritable,
Respondent, gloomy. We all pity
them. The great source of power in
the individual is the blood 1t runs
the machinery of life, and upon it de-
pends our health and strength. A mill
on a stream where water is scanty can
be worked but ii portion of the time.
So man with little good blood can do
but little good work. The reserve
power must be stored up in this fluid.
1t is an old saying among stock raisers
that "blOOd tells" 1t is equally true
that blood tells in the sense in which
we use the word. If it is only good
blood, then the more the better. When
the reserve power of an individual runs
low it is an indication that change is
necessary, and that it is best to stop
and go to accumulating,
Just as the miller does when water gets
low in the pond. Such "A course would
save many person from physical
bankruptcy. Il Herald of Health.

Not long ago we went to church in
the city Of-well, no matter where.
! There had recently occurred in our per-
sonal experience some things to glad
den us and others to give us anxiety
and we felt unusually disposed to seek
the relief of prayer and praise in pub
lie worship. We hoped that the min
lister would be able to express our de-
slres better than we could, and that
we might he able to join in some
hymn of thanksgiving set to familiar
tune-our repertoire is not large. We
had been sitting in the richly-uphols-
tered pew and staring mt the painted
windows but a few moments when
the organ suddenly hushed, and in
distant corner of the church four
fashionably- dressed ladies and gentle
men arose and sang. And this is
what they sang:
and they that worship Him, and they
that worship Him, and they that wor-
ship Him must worship Him in Spirit
they that worship Him God is a Spir-
1t; must worship Him: they must:
must worship: ship Him: in spirit
"hu III biuOu IoI int aJntT seekeIn
such; ltenorl for the [all, loud seek
eth such, seeketh such, seeketh such
to worship Him. Very softly God is
spirit waxing louder God is
spirit and they; they that worship
Him they; and they; they that wor-
ship Him, must worship Him, must
worship Him, and loud yellendo,l
THEY that worship Him and they
must that worship Him tenor, soft
ly, must; [cOntraltol worship; [alll
Him in Spirit and in truth all but
tenor for; [allI the Father seeketh
such bass seeketh such [all softly
to worship Him, to worship; [sort o.
dying away in spirit and in tru-u-th."
As the concluding cadences softly
died away among the vacant pews,
like the 'still small voice. among the
cliffs of Sinai, we could not help won
derlng whether those much-tortured
words had any meaning, and, if so,
whether that meaning had any appli-
cation to the performance just ended.

A Good WOOdpiIe.

Suppose, now, my dear friend, that
instead of coming to town for no other
purpose than to hang around groceries
and saloons, discussing your private
and public grievances, talk politics,
etc, yOu turn in and get up your stock
of wood, cut and split it, and put it
under cover to dry. This will save
you much labor in the busy seed and
harvest time. 1t will save the women
folks much labor and annoyance, be
cause as general thing, they are poor
wood choppers AMI must have wood.
Try it, and you will be tenfold repaid
in the nice bread and pies your wife
will provide for you when you return
from the field of toll, to say nothing of
her pleasant cOuntenance.-A American
Farmer.

Girls, Be Cautious.

Girls, beware of transient young
men. Never suffer the address of
strangers. RecOllect one good, steady
farmers boy or industrious mechanic
is worth more than all the floating
trash in the world. The allurements
of a dandy Jack, with a gold chain
about his neck, walking stick in his
paw, and brainless though fancy
skull, can never make up the loss of IA
kind fathers home, mothers counsel
and the society of brothers and sisters
These affections last, while that of
such man is lost at the wane of the
honeymoon. Girls, beware Take heed
lest ye fall into the "snare of the fowl
er." Too many have been already tax
en- from kind fathers home and a
good mothers counsel, and made the
victims of poverty and crime, brought
to shame and disgrace, and then thrown
upon their own resources, to spend
their few remaining days in grief and
sorrow, while the brainless skull is
making its circuit around the world,
bringing to its ignOble will all that
may be allured by his deceitful snares,
and many fair one to the shame of
his artful villainy.- American Farm

Senator Edmunds Photographic
ed.


Washington letter to Cleveland Leader.l
Senator Edmunds is tall man with
a large frame, and students stoop in
his broad shoulders. He has large
hands, good foot and big head, which
on top, is as destitute of hair as a ba-
by's cheek. a two-inch fringe of fine
gray locks surrounds this oasis of bald
ness, fading away into the full white
beard, which covers the side and the
lower part of his square, intellectual
face. His forehead is broad and high.
and his bald spot back of it terminates
in several blunt cones at the crown.
His eyes are steel gray, and they shoot
out at you from under heavy brOws of
bristling white. His nose is large, and
slightly inclined to be Roman. 1t has.
like his cOuntenance, tinge of deli
cate pink, and shows the good living
and warm blood of its owner. Senator
Edmunds sits in his maroon cushioned
chair behind his rosewood desk in the
front row of the senate, sandwiched in
between the fierce, Indian featured
Logan on the left, and the stately,
gray-haired Anthony of Rhode Island
on his right. He keeps pretty busy,
and seems always to be doing some
thing. The clerk reads IA bill. He
hears it, is interested at once, leans
forward and nervously moves the
thumbs of his folded hands against
each other. He half rises, throws his
right index finger at the author of the
bill, makes a short remark, and walks
toward him with a pushing, energetic
stride. He is a powerful speaker is
this senator from Vermont, and as a
constitutional lawyer has not his peer
in the senate. When his mind takes
hold of subject, every other part of
the universe is excluded from it. Like
Spinoza, he looks at the world through
gOOse-quill, and when he points his
quill toward particular star all the
rest of the armament is shut out.

WORTH THINKING OF.-Speak kind
ly in the morning; it will tighten all
the cares of the day, turn sorrow into
gladness, make household, professional
and all other affairs move along more
smoothly, giving peace to the one who
thus speaks and grateful joy to the one
who hears. Speak kindly at the eve
ming hour, for it may be that before
the dawn of another day some tenderly
loved one may finish his or her span of
life for this world, and then it will be
too late to recall an unkiDd word, or
even to seek forgiveness for an injury
inflicted upon the heart of a loved
