people, "When you have your conscience
sprinkled with the blood of Christ when you
have an entrance into the holiest-and have
liberty in prayer, remember me-" And

that knew what that meant. Remember I

upon my conscience: and remember l have q

tition to his congregation. I have great
work on hand, and great deal, God knows,
on my conscience. have very villa heart

you how guilt is to be taken off the con-
science and kept of in the right way. 1t

The party consisted Of fourteen men and

of the launch responded. The tug ana tow
passed to the port side, and the launch spec
concealed beneath a foot OF Waser.

launch grated on the dixie, and the launch
came to standstill and lurched over
little, Engineer Rothe and Charles Somner
got overheard to push the launch on,

Queer Dwelling Houses.

The Gilbert Islander does not gener-
ally care to have any sides to his dwell
ing. He sets up four corner posts, about
four feet high, made from the trunks of
screw palms, cut off and inverted, so as
to stand alone on the stumps of the
branches. Iashed from one to the other
of these are long, slender trunks of
cocoanut palms, and from these again
spring pairs of rafters, which. in their
turn, support the neatly thatched roof.
The gable ends are then closed, and the
house is complete. Not nail or pin OF
any kind is used. All the beams, rafters
and the thatch are secured by ingenious
lashings, made generally from the palm
leaf fiber, though sometimes braided
from the owners own hair. The floor
space is smoothed off and covered with
thick bed of small smooth pebbles or
coral. On this are spread plenty OF soft,
thick mats, made of course from palm
leaves, and then with supply of young
cocoanuts at hand, with string of the
shells filled with a good supply Of
"toddy" hanging outside the house,
and the huge fragment of shark, baked
in a wide oven in the sand, the islander
is content to eat and sleep until hungry
again.
In the middle of every village is a
council house." This is large hut,
one that we measured being one hun
dred and twenty feet long, sixty feet
wide and sixty feet high at the ridge
pole. built on the same plan as the
dwellings, but intended as a place Of
meeting, especially for the "old men
who rule each community. These ''po-
tent, grave and reverend seignors meet
daily and hear and decide all complaints,
and issue all ordinances for the govern
ment of the people. If their decisions
and ordinances happen to meet with the
approval of majority of those inter
ested they are adopted. If they don't
another lot are promulgated the next
day, and so on until the matter is set
tied or dropped.-San Francisco Ill.,

A Hoop Snake Killed.

A genuine hoop snake has been cap
tured by George Milton, farmer, and is
now on exhibition at Floris, Iowa. 1t
is about Is inches in length, is streaked
with black and white with spiked tail,
and is of bronzed color on top of its
head. Between the eyes is small socket
in which the end of the spike tail fits
when colcd up like hoop. Mr.. Milton
was in the field blowing when he saw an
object like hoop roll down and strike
his plow beam with its tail. He saw
that it was snake, and when it at
tempted to roll away he struck it on the
head with club and killed the reptile.
Mr.. Ramsey, a druggist, has preserved
it in alcohol. It is reptile rarely seen
in this country. This species of snake is
said to be more poisonous than the rattle
snake. e.-Neao York Times.

Cleaning the Corners.

A friend Of mine once told me that when
he was boy his father sent him to clean the
windows He got cloth, and began rub
bing away at the panes. By-and-by his
father came to see how the work was getting
on. he found the little fellow rubbing at
the middle Of pane, where 1t was already
clean, and never touching,the corners. which
were full Of dirt; and said, "Never mind the
middles Of the panes-they are always clean
clean the corners, clean the cornersl"
The boy never forgot what his father said,
and afterwards saw how well it applied to
his life and the lives of others, as well as to
the window panes.
The most Of us are fairly respectable peo-
pie, and trust not few Of US real Chris
tians. We avoid big sins and all sorts OF
common wickedness; but fear some Of us
do not watch enough against little sins and
shortcomings, especially we do not give heed
enough to the cultivation of the Christian
graces, which make life so bright and beau
tiful. We are really very good. We are not
thieves, liars, swearers, nor drunkards. We
have q character to keep up, and the rub OF
the respectable world, without much trouble
on our part, keeps it-keeps the middle Of
the pane clean, even when there Is
not much of Christian principle. 1t
costs us no trouble to keep it clean;
in fact may may say ayt it tba keeps ,tssl
"Oh,n you say, sit does not much matter
about them; they are but corners-nobody
heeds about them" So you leave them to

and the remains OF dead flies. But it does
matter. 1t is slovenly housekeeping. Many

breaking Bruised Reeds.

Science of certain kind says we must lay
down law Of the survival Of the fittest, and
if the reeds are broken throw them away.
Jesus Christ says. Throw nothing away;;"
let US work for the saying of every life and
see that we work so carefully with so critical
a love and patience that we lose nothing at
last but the son of perdition. the son Of
waste, the child that must go home to the
devil. Let us have no rough-and-ready
treatment, however, Of human life, but let US
examine, and separate, and encourage, and
cheer, and do what we can, for We are
bound to save the last atom; then If we can
not save it we must own what we have lost:
Father, have lost none but the son of,per-
dition. He did not want to destroy mems
lives, but to save them. If men will not be
saved even the Son of God cannot save them.
To force mad into heaven is not to fill him
with peace ana Joy: 1t Is to violate the haf-
mony which be cannot appreciate.
"a bruised reed," say some, On instru-
ment called a reed was meant and there
was a rift in it which spoiled the nj sic. Jesus
Christ said, we must repair this; ijomething
must be done with this reed; it was meant
for music and we must look at it with that
end in view. He does not take it saying:
There is rift in the lutte and the music Is
always looks to see il man cannot be made
something better of. He would he al US every
one. Say to him, o Bruised Reed, if I may
but touch the hem of Thy garment even my
life-reed shall be healed, and will take up
Gods music again and be glad in Gods
house.
Or "a bruised reed" may meal that wild
beasts In rushing through the water, or from
the food. have crushed the growing plants
so that they. are bent, they no more stand up
straightly; but Jesus Christ comes to heal
them and restore them. And the smoking
fax shall he not quench; he will rather take
bringing a,little more air upon it, and still
q little more, but so gradually; see how the
spark whitens, how it leaps up into kind OF
new life; now watch him how he regulates
the shaking, and see how that which we
thought was only smoke becomes
flame, bright as fire, useful as torch, and
how it is handed on to the aid Of other men.

ing across the sky the other night, wonder

ing across the sky the other night, wonder
il It was not the same one that pointed down
to where Jesus lay in the manger, and if,
having pointed out his birthplace, it has ever
since been wandering through the heavens,
watching to see how the world would treat
him. When Adam awoke in the garden in
the cool of the day he saw coming out
through the dusk Of the evening the same
worlds that greeted us on our way to church
tonight.
In Independence Hall is an old cracked bell
that sounded the signature Of the Declara-
tion Of Independence. You cannot ring it
now; but this great chime Of silver bells that
strike in the dome Of night ring out with as
sweet tone as when God swung them at the
creation. Look up at night, and know that
the white lilies that bloom in all the hanging
gardens Of our King are century plants-not
blooming once in hundred years, but
through all the centuries.
The star at which the mariner looks to-
night was the light by which the ships Of
Tarshish were guided across the Mediterra-
mean and the Venetian fotilla found its way
into Lepanto. Their armor is as bright to-
night as when, in ancient battle, the stars in
their courses fought against Sisera. To the
ancients the stars were symbols Of eternity.
But here the figure Of my text breaks
down-not in defeat, but in the majesties Of
the Judgment The stars shall not shine for
ever. 1U6 Says Uuey oudu ltIl llho
autumnal leaves. It is almost impossible for
a man to take in courser going a mile in
three minutes; but God shall take in the
worlds, flying hundred thousand miles an
hour, by one pull Of his little finger. As,
when the factory band slips at nightfan
from the main wheel, all the smaller wheels
slacken their sreed and with slower and
sSTsr ss%s to motion r they so 5ua g pas sRsS
machinery Of the universe, wheel within
wheel, making revolution Of appalling speed,
shall by the touch of Gods hand slip the band
of present law and slacken and stop. That
is what will be the matter with the mount
tains The chariot in which they ride shall
halt so suddenly that the Kings shall be
thrown out. Star after star shall be carried
out to burial amid funeral torches and burn
ing worlds Consultations shall throw ashes
on their heads, and all up and down the
highways of space there shall be mourning,
mourning, mourning, because the worlds are
dead. But the Christian workers shall
never quit their thrones-they shall reign
forever and ever. IF, by some invasion
from hell, the attempt were made to carry
them of into captivity from heaven, the
souls they have saved would rally for
their defense, and all the angels Of God
would strike with their scepters, and the re-
deemed, on white horses OF victory, would
ride down the foe, and all the steep of the
sky would resound with the crash OF the
overwhelmed cohorts tumbled headlong out
of heaven.

TEMPERANCE.
Work and Wishes.

If the farmer in the spring time
Sighed, wish my seed was sown,
Never raised his hand in labor,
But Just sat him down to moan,
Should you wonder if the summer
Found no harvest on the plain;
Should you say twas Heavens doings
That he had no field Of grain!
If the woodman in the forest
Sighed, Il wish these trees wore down,
And then spent the time in pleasure
Till the green leaves turned to brown,
Should you marvel il the labor
Seemed progressing rather slow.
Should you say that Heaven villed it
And the thing could never go?
Then. Oh, temperance men and women
II our cause moves slow to-day,
Will it help the matter any
To sit down and wish, pray?
Cast YOUR seel, then look for harvest,
Thin the army of the foe,
Do the work that lies around you,
And the cause won't move so slow.
