Ruth, going into that harvest field,
might have said: ''There is straw, and
there is a straw, but what is, straw?
can't get any barley for myself or my
mother-in-law out of these separate
straws." Not 80, beautiful Ruth. She
gathered two straws, and she put them
together, and more straws, until she got
enough to make sheaf Putting that
down, she went and gathered more
straws until she had another sheaf, and
another, and another, and another, and
then she brought them all together, and
she threshed them out, and she had an
ephah of barley, nigh bushel. Oh,

Abercrombie, the world renowned phi
losopher, was philosopher in Scotland,
and he got his philosophy, or the chief
part OF it, while, as physician, he was
waiting for the door of the sick room to

day who say they are so busy they have
no time for mental or spiritual improve
ment; the great duties of life cross the
field like strong reapers, and carry off all
the hours, and there is only here and
there . fragment left that is not worth
cleaning. All, my friends, you could go
into the busiest day and busiest week OF
your life and find golden opportunities,
which. gathered, might at least make .
whole sheaf for the Lords garner. It is
the stray opportunities and the stray
privileges which, taken up and bound to-
gether and beaten out, will at last fill
you with abounding Joy.
There are few moments left worth
the cleaning. Now, Ruth, to the field

an aged one or sick relative that is not
strong enough to come forth and toll in

precious seed, shall doubtless come again
with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with
him." May the Lord God of Ruth and
Naomi be our portion foreverl

Genuine Arabs. After All.

t'Now, Allah be praised, here are old

he caught sight of p. T. Barnum's Arabs
on Pennsylvania avenue Washington,
one morning. Representative Amos
Cummings, who was with nim, was
skeptical, and said the Orientals were
Georgetown darkies and that he had seen
them fishing off a wharf last Sunday.

The cars have three compartments; the
middle one, having cushioned seats, is
called first class, and the one at each
end, which has no seats, is second class.
They are open at all sides, and are rough,
clumsily constructed and poorly painted
concerns, carrying conductor and a
driver, who keeps a police whistle be-
tween his teeth and blows it necessarily
from one end of the line to the other.
Two little Australian ponies pull each
car, and they go at fair rate of speed.
Sometimes these ponies, which are not
much larger than Joe Emmet's big dog,
and are quite remarkably intelligent,
take notion to balk. Then the driver
gets down, puts his whistle in his pocket,
and, with the assistance of the conductor,
drags them along the track until they
get ashamed of themselves and are ready
to declare the strike off. The driver and
conductor climb into the car again, the
former resumes his shrill whistling and the
car continues its journey. But, of course,
none but the natives and very poor for
eigners who have no social standing ever
think of riding in a street car-St. Louis

Thousands of dollars worth of
chickens are destroyed by Cholora
every year. 1t is more fatal to them
than all other diseases combined.
But the discovery of liquid remedy
that positively destroys the Microbes
has been discovered. Half of the
young chickens are destroyed by the
Microbes before they are fryers. A
5o-cents bottle is enough for 100

using two thirds of a bottle, you are
not satisfied with it as cure for
Cholera, return it to the druggist
from whom you purchased it, and
he will refund your money.

Eastern Roads Eater the Rate War.

CHICAGO, Feb. 16.-Although the Eastern
roads firmly resolved not to participate in the
cut rates of the Western lines it was discovered
to-day that they were parties to contracts made
by all Of the Iowa roads to take corn from
western Iowa points to the seaboard at figures
which cut the through rates to 10 cents per
100 pounds. One rate is made from Fremont.
Neb., to New York via Chicago, of sc cents per
100 pounds, of which the Western road gets IA
cents and the Eastern lines % cents, cut by
the latter under their Chicago New York
rate of 81 cents. A good por-
ton of the grain is going around Chicago
via the various outside junction points. One of
the most important cuts yet made is that of 10
cents to St Paul ffth-class. as most of the
heavy freight falls into that classification, and
the low rate will cause heavy falling-off in the
earnings. All of the Missouri river lines met
the st. Paul rate of 27 cents, frst-class, on
through business, but none are making it on To-
cal traffic from Chicago

As FAR as the party can be regarded as bound by the action of conference, as distinct from a caucus, the republican re- presentatives in the house have formally decided to decline to accept Mir Milis's pro- position to dispense with the consideration of the tariff bill under the five-minute rule. The democratic members of the ways and means committee are hard at work upon the amendments proposed by the demo crats, endoavoring to dispose of them be- fore the end of the week, so that the house can enter upon the the consideration of the bill for amendment next week. The To- publicans are confident that they will be able to agree upon asubstitute for the Mills bill, and the conference has already out lined several of the leading points of the measure; but it is their present plan to al- low the consideration of the pending bill to run along under the fve-ninute rule for some time, in order to fully disclose in the debate the sentiments of all the mem bers of the party. 0
