A Short-Necked Goddess.

II never look at the figure on the
dome of the Capitol, said Washing
sonian the other day, without feeling
sorry for the poor Goddess of Liberty.
Poor old lady, she's up there with little
Or no neck, and every time l look up
her head looks as if it was sinking
further and further down into her
shoulders, remember the time when
she was first placed there. The figure
was sent for inspection before it was
raised to its place, and the committee in
charge came around to see it. OF course
the neck was several feet in length, be-
cause the statue is nineteen feet high,
but, being so near, the committee in
stantly protested against the length,
and what is worse they actually ordered
that several feet be cut off of it. At
first a protest was made against such a
thing, but the committee said the neck
was too long and it had to be cut of. 1t
was done. When the artist heard Of it
4 nearly killed him, and no wonder.
Look at the Goddess any time you have
. chance and see how short her neck is. -

THE TRUE CAUSE.
How Public and Private Confidence Is
Destroyed by Dishonesty.

destroyed Dy DiSnOneSty.
"Do you know what is running this
countrya' said Judge Burke; ..I will
tell you. 1t is not over-productjon but
it is the dishonesty of the people that
destroys public and private confidence.
I'll give you an example of dishonesty
practiced upon me by a party named
Jimpleson. He came to my house
one day and told me that he had
one of the best schemes in the world.
Said that he had a gold mine not
far away, and that if he only had
little gold with which to salt it
he could sell the claim for hundred
thousand dollars. He was so plausible,
talked so fairly, that was completely
taken in. Invent with him and looked
at the mine. was in need of about
fifty thousand dollars so / concluded to
let him have the gold. He said that he
could take gold piece, CRATE it off and
so skillfully imbed it in the sand that
no one could detect our scheme. How
much gold will it taKe?' asked.
80, about three hundred dollars. I
can take that amount and make the
place worth at least one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars to us.
81 gave him the money and he got a
crater and went out to the mines.
Several days afterward he invited
me to come out. He had done his work
well. We invited capitalists to come
and make us bid. My partner was
not present when an assay was made.
Good thing for him that he wasn't. He
had salted the mine with copper dust
and had kept the gold. / have not
seen him since. Now, don't you see,
lost confidence in him. He is not an
honest man.-Arkaias0,U 1rdUeler.

Rev. Robert Collier says: ] think
we may notice four eras in the life OF
great historic churches. We may en-
title them first, inwardness; second,
outwardness; third, worldliness. and
fourth, worthlessness. In the first era
the soul is the main factor; in the Sec
ond, the senses; in the third, theincome,
and the last. emptiness of whatsoever
things are true and lovely and of good
report. In the first era the soul is
open to God rather than man; in the
second, to man rather than God; in the
third, mainly to mammon, and in the
last to spiritual palsy and death. =.
