st. John Delighted.

1t is reported that day or two ago
Mr.. st. John went into Kansas drug
store and called for glass of soda
water.
His left eye accidentally twitched as
the clerk gazed at him inquiringly. The
mistaken clerk, not knowing the gentle
man, gave him a liberal allowance Of
the usual flavor demanded on such o.
casions, and the glass was drained to
the dregs.
"My goodness gracious mel" said the
candidate, smacking his lips, ~ don't
see how men can drink liquor when they
can get soda water like that"

The Georgia iS.,ilosopher Moralizes on q
Common Human Weakness.

Iknewa hard working man, says Bill
Arp in the Atlanta Constitution, who
was so anxious to get ahead hat he
stinted his family and invested part of
his earnings in the Louisiana lottery for
five years and lever drew but $40. He
told me he had lost $500 that way, and
every time he saw the list published OF
the lucky men who drew the prizes it
fred him up and he tried it again.
Sometimes / wish Uncle Jubal and Gen.
B~eauregard would tote fair and publish
q list of them fellows who aidn't draw
anything. But / reckon that would be
SO long and occupy so many columns
in the newspapers they couldn't afford
IL.
1t is just human l know to want more
money than we have got, especially il
we are hard run and live on a strain.
l want more myself and if / was to find
800 in the road / couldn't help hoping
that the owner would never miss it, and
never call for it. just like a boy who
finds a pocket-knife and feels like il is
his, but that sort of money is not as sol.
id and satisfactory as money we work
for. | know an old preacher who had
$40, and his son had $40, and the young
man went down TO Atlanta and took all
the money TO buy some things, and he
came across a wheel of fortune and saw a
fellow win $40 just as easy, and SO he
was persuaded to try his luck, and,
sure enough, he won $40, and it hope
him up nightly, %nd he tried it again
and won some more, and he kept on
until he had won $50 and become a fool,
for right than his luck changed and he
lost it all and his $40, and his daddy's
SO besides, and lie had to borrow 81 80
to get home on, and like to have persisted
todeath in the bargain. Well, he be-
longed to the church, and they had him
up and tried him, and he made a clean
breast and told how he was, overtaken
and tempted, and how he went on and
on until he made $50 clean. "And
right there" said the old man, is whar
Johns sin begun. III he had stopped
right there it would have been all right.
but like a fool he went on and on to de-
struction. well John wasn't such a
dreadful sinner after all, for he wanted
the money to buy something to please
the old folks. But money don't come
that easy very often. l know a man
who has been kept on a strain for five
years working out his losses on cotton
futures. Sometimes luck runs along
with a man for ten years and more, and
that makes him vain and he thinks his
Judgment is infallible and suddenly he
coliapses like Seney aud Emo aud KeeHe.
No money is safe except that made by
honest men.
