CRITICISM.

That habit of mind which leads towards the
criticism of men and their motives has danger
Gus tendency, and in some is calculated to dwarf
the more generous impulses of a-person naturally
amiable. The power of keen, true criticism is a
Gift not to be despsed and often serves as a use
full weapon by which to effect worthy object.
Yet to use it Unfortunately right and left, with
out apparent thought or care as to who is hurt or
injured, is ungracious and ungenerous.
A wholesome criticism is rarely comfortable, but
often proves greater benefit to him receiving it
than blessing or pleasure to the individual by
whom it is given. He who wears the spectacles
excellencies and virtues of his brother man, has
chosen the better part. He has made up his life
by Christian rulings, worthy of praise and mita-
ton, and the world would be darker without him.
Yet the world cannot do without its critics either,
and the lessons they teach though ofttimes bitter,
are wholesome and necessary.
'Politcs," says Webster, sis the science of
government, or the management of political
party" Politics." says the philosopher, ''is
that broad field wherein humanity seeks to lift
itself above the ignorant preiudices and barbarous
cruelties of the darker ages" "Politics" says
the critic, sis that mighty whirlpool into which a
man may fling himself, crying, 'the people the
dear people, long live the people,! and come out
with fat office for himself wherein for term of
years he learns to forget all about the people
"Potics," says the lawyer, ''is vast arena
where men of learning, genius and nobility strive
with each other to serve their country for their
country's good"

The Kings Garden.
-[Boston Courier.

Once upon a time there was a very powerful
king, who held sway over large and well estab-
lished court. His reign was known throughout all
other countries for its imeproachabe character
and the general harmony of thought and action
among its courtiers and the ladies in waiting. The
ruler belonged to long line of kings, whose man
dates had always been unimpeachable and mighty
In his castle generation after generation of kings
had been born, had regned and died-some more
wise than others, but each holding immutable
sway.
About his castle was beautiful garden, possess
ing all the attractions that wealth and cultivation
could bestow. There were crystal fountains and
beds of roses, and the walks we're made to glitter
with precious stones There were broad velvety
lawns, and lakes of purest water, upon whose
bosom beautiful swans were gliding. The birds
sang sweetly in the trees, whose breezes famed
the cheeks of the lords and ladies who were fa-
vored in belonging to the court of the mighty king.
1t was one of the mandates of the powerful ruler
that at no time should the members of his court
turn their backs to the castle of his royal hghness,
always deporting themselves with veneration
akin to worship.
Now there were different avenues leading out
from the castle, like unto the spokes of wheel.
And one of these avenues was named Content
ment, and one Culture, and one Prejudice, and
one Satisfaction, and one Selfshness, and one
Charity, and one Progress, and one Wealth, and
one Prosperity, and one Reform, and one Society.
AT prescribed distance from the castle, adown
each avenue was danger signal, beyond which
the court attendants were forbidden to venture;
and away on and beyond these danger signals was
known to be huge wall To conjecture as to
what took place outside this rampant was well
known to be an act Of disloyalty to the court So
the lords and ladies who kept their eyes upon the
castle and followed the mandates of the king were
beyond reproach.

The white Caps" an organization which
has been terrorizing Indiana for quite a time,
has crossed the boundary-Ine and secured or
ganization in Ohio. They have been commit
ting depredations IN number of places, taking
citizens from their beds at night and whipping
them cruelty. They send notices to both men
and women to leave the neighborhood and if
these warnings are not complied with within
tile time specified, the unfortunate receivers of
these mysterious notes, regardless of sex or con-
dition, are ruthlessly dragged from their homes
and treated in the most merciess manner. The
Mayor of Cleveland, o., recently received notice
from these outlaws stating that should he dare
do anything toward bringing them to justice,
he would pay the extreme penalty for his rash
act.-Ien men were at work on the inside of
the Water-works standpipe in the course of
construction at Stevens Point Wis, and were
engaged upon the scailoding, nearly 80 feet
from the foundation. Suddenly and without
a moments warning, one side of the scaffold-
ing gave way, preciptating FIVE of the men to
the stone bottom. Four were killed.-A bot
tie was found on the beach at Sandwich Mass,
containing a note from the crew of the bark

when the message would be found they would
all be at the bottom of the sea, as their vessel
had sprung a leak and there was no prospect of
rescue. The crew was composed of five men.

with his hands strained upward, turned the water

The children screamed with horror and a woman
rushed 70 the rescue In vain she tried TO force
the Childs mouth from the faucet. The water had
all the time been streaming down his throat into
his lungs and stomach, and she turned IL off. At

away the skin OF the lips from the inside. No
sooner was he released than blood, mixed with
water, rushed in stream from his nose and
