me of churches and preachers and
sermons and the like. / haven't
thought about them before for a long
time and haven't been in church
for years. 1 wonder what kind of SER
mons the preachers preach now I?
When / used to hear them they gave
their attention mostly to the glories of
heaven and the terrors of hell. They
generally skipped the earth entirely.
Don't know that 1 ever heard SER
mon in my life that was calculated to
make man any happier or any bet
ter here on earth. Seems to me If l
was a preacher L would tell people once
in while that they ought to be kind
to their neigbors and true to their
friends and do what good they could
generally while they were alive.

I know there are some people that
are afraid of tramps and l don't blame
them SO much for treating them pretty
rough. But there are lots of others
that are not afraid Of them, that seem
to actually take pride in abusing them.
Women are generally pretty tender
hearted, but / overheard one the other

of it when the last trump sounds and
she finds herself among the crowd on

4 Brave Act fExchan0ei

Some ten or more summers ago. a flat. bottomed, stern-wheel steamer was mak. ing its slow way down the. .tortuous wind. ings of the Red river of the north. Among the few passengers was a little girl three years eld-a dainty, fearless winsome child-everybody's pet, from her father, an officer in the Hudson Bay Company's service, and the good -natured captain, to the grimy deck-hands, whose acquaintance the little maiden had some how made on the lower deck.
 One aftern oon the child was taken by her nurse to the floor of the lower deck. Three men were lying here, bound hand and foot. They were on their way to Fargo to be tried for crime. The sheriff kept close watch on them, for they were desperate men. They guessed their game was up, and accepted their fate with ha!f-cheerful bravado; but the sheriff knew them for ruffians and bullies, and never left his post.
 The child came up to the men and looked at them curiously; they looked silently at her. Perhaps these rough. authenticated men had never seen any thing so dainty and sweet before.
 She was not afraid of them, but began talking in her pretty broken words, and putting her baby hands on the letters of one, smiled and said, "What dat? The man smiled back without replying, and soon the little maid moved away.
 As she walked, there was a sudden jerk of the whole ship, i: ground jarringly against some unyielding substance hid- den in the water l; it tilted over slightly, the child lost her balance, and with a scream fell over the side into the water. The three prisoners saw her disappear.
 The prisoner to whom she had spoken, and whose handcuffs she had for a mo- ment touched, exclaimed to the sheriff, God /! don't ye shoot, Bill" Then quickly rolling himself over and over, he dropped into the water beside the child. His hands were bound, but he caught the child's dress in his teeth, and tread ing the water with his fettered feet, kept the child above water until help came, and it was some minutes before the steamers boat reached them. The child was saved.
 :" guess you air a white man after all, Eriker 1" said the sheriff, admiringly, to the man.
 It was afterward learned that the sher- if told the story to the "jedge," and the judge, with western freedom and that ad- miration for a gallant act which covers a multitude of sins, so arranged that when it was found that Eriker, who was Scan- dinavian by birth, had mysteriously dis appeared, nothing was done beyond a little official buster, and he escaped.

Emerson on the Decay of England.

English Traits.
 l saw everywhere in the country, proofs of sense and spirit, and success of every sort: like the people; they are as good as they are handsome they have every thing and can do everything but mean time, surely know that, as soon as re- turn to Massachusetts, shall lapse at once into the feeling which the geogra- phy ot America inevitably inspires, that we play the game with immense advan- tage that there and not here is the seat and centre of the British race and that no skill or activity can long compete with the prodigious natural advantages of tn at country, in the hands of the same race and that Eng land, an old and exhausted island. must one day be contented, like other parents, to be strong only in her children. But this was a proposition which no Englishman, of whatever con- dition, can easily entertain.
 l see this aged England not dispxited not weak, but we'll remembering that she has seen dark days before: indeed, with kind of instinct that she sees a little better in cloudy day, and that in the storm of battle and calamity, she has a secret vigor and pulse like a cannon. sec her in her old age not decrepit, but young. and still daring to believe in her power of endurance and expansion. See ing this, say All haill mother of na. tions, mother of heroes, with strength still equal to the time; still wise to en- tertain and swift to execute the policy which the mind and heart of mankind requires in the present hour, hospitable to the foreigner, and home to the thoughtful and generous of all lands.

An Important Arrest.

Tho arrest Of suspicious character upon his general appearance, movements or conpanionship. without waiting until he has robbed traveller, fired house, or murdered fellow-man, is an impor- tant function of shrewd detective. Even more important is the arrest of a disease which, if not checked, will blight and de- stroy human life. The frequent cough, loss of appetite, general languor or debil- ity, pallid skin, and bodily aches and pains, announce the approach of pulmo- nary consumption, which is promptly al- rested and permanently cured by Dr, Pierce's "Golden Medical Discovery" Sold by druggists

Prohibition in Kansas.
Eli Perkins, in Exchange.

A'AA SiAAhSt in AAShduSSsI
 In Kansas, last week, found the pro- hibition law fully carried out. The rough element always say it is not. They will tell you where you can get all the whisky you want, but it is always in the next town.
 It's over to Newton or down to Win field, or over to Rossville. When you get to the town designated they say:
 @Well, we did sell liquor here, but they've stopped us ltgot too dangerous" 1"
 One day the crew on freight train were talking about drinking.
 "Now, boys." said l, lis there any place in the state where you can really get it2''
 "Why yes-over to Rossville."
 "Surely 5'
 "Yes, surely. I had some there myself last night"
 "How did you get it p
 "Why, one-legged Bill had it ?"
 "Wherer'
 In his hollow wooden leg, and Bill he took us over behind the church into the graveyard. Then he unstrapped his wooden leg. toek out bottle and gave ue B d.;nkn
 "And Bill-is he there nowr'
 No, they arrested him and he's in jail now"
 "Well, boys" said I, "I think when you have to go over behind church, wander like spectre around the grave yard, sit down on your mothers grave and drink whisky out of wooden leg, and the wooden-legged man has to go to jail for 1t, say think that is near enough to prohibition for me.

ALONG THE COUNTRY ROAD.
BY TOM HONE.

Along the countTy road when twilight cool ness comes and work is done, Or, when the earth, refreshed by night, turn S to the morning sun, He who would find that freedom that does best our acts and thoughts inspire Should walk along the endless change the eye and ear will never tire. Fair natures harmony of color, form and sound will fill his mind, And warm and soften the cold, hard places, making the heart more kind. His brother man is greater, wiser and more pure now in his eyes, Such broader, clearer vision comes that new world before him lies. He sees beyond trees that fringe the road with green on either side, And sees the truth, that the heart of man is the human hearts best guide.

Not an Explosion.
New York Journal. ]

"Was that an explosion? ?'' asked a timid Harlem man of his herculean hel D. meet, as dull report resounded through the balmy June air.
 His wife, who was looking out of the back window, replied:
 " No, indeed that was an echo of justice"
 "And pray what caused it ?' he in- quired.
 |" It was caused by the contact of neighbor Iox's head with his wife's roll ing-pin." she said, with look that made the little man shiver like victim of ma laria.

Ana what shall we say then, my brethren" read Paul abstractedly-" wh at shall we say then of those people who teach the damnable doctrine that some are brought into the world with the full knowledge on the part of their Creator that, do what they will, live as holy lives as they may, be in fact saints on earth, still there can be no possibility of salva- ton for them? Is not such doctrine a demoralizng one2 Am not correct in calling it damnable? Ought not those who, as do some sections of so-called christians, and especially those unhappy people who follow the lead of that de ceiver Calvin-ought not such, ask, to hide themselves from the face of man, as they cannot from the wrath of heaven P
 Paul was so agitated that he lead this unfortunate passage without a glimmer of its meaning, till, as he looked up at the close of the paragraph and saw the little sea of scowli1g faces before him, what he had doae flashed upon him. He hurriedly concluded the services and vanished into the vestry.
 He had scarcely taken oH his gown when Deacon Bocock, followed by the other elders, burst into the vestry. The deacon's face wore such an expression of disgusted triumph that Paul at once gave himself up for lost.
 "Oh, MT. Conway, Mir. Conway, what ever have you been saying2" exclaimed one of the elders.
 Deacon Bocock radely thrust the speaker on one side, saying, Don't waste words on him. See here Mir. Con. way" he continued, i've engaged yon as . Calvinist and you've been preaching directly against creed. It's an insult, !
