Faithful Printers.

Last Wednesday morning when the fire
broke out in the block of buildings In which
the Pres and Banner is situated, the printers
OF this newspaper were not less faithful than
"the boy who stood on the burning deck
The Ctristian Nei0hbor had not long been to
press when the alarm was given. 1t was then
two O'Clock. Both inside and outside forms
OF the Ress and Banner had to be made up,
worked of and mailed before ten o'clock. No
time was to be lost. Notwithstanding the ex-
element incident to fire in q country vii
lage, and Notwithstanding the fact that 1t was
thought at one time the Office would soon be
In flames, the press was run with its accus-
toned regularity, and the type was being cor
rected and put into the forms for the Press
and Banner, as usual at that hour. and In time
tho malls were made up. Neither the excite
msnt OF the fire, nor the hilarity of the crowd
which succeeded the fire, interrupted the
work which was then going on.
We mention this circumstance Us an ac-
knowledgment Of the fidelity Of those who
are employed on the Press and Banner. We
have not yet been disappointed in the expec-
tation OF faithful service, from those who
have stood to their duty under any and all
circumstances. A like instance Of fidelity is
seldom seen. and never excelled. The force
on the Press and Banner have never failed to
do all that was expected Of them. and it is to
them, more than to US, that the credit OF
much that is done in this office. is due.

Amuse Your Children.

Some mothers seem utterly incapable
of amusing their children. They can
cook for them, sew for them, take care
of them when they are sick, but have
no faculty for making them happy.
The little people fret and NOPE because
the atmosphere about them is so work
a-day, so devoid of the imaginative
element on which they thrive.
Among the rich, as well as the poor,
they are often forlorn because they are
in a grown-up world; there should be
a STOPPING of elders to their small
estate. See how heartily they will
respond to the crudest effort for their
entertainment! Particularly do they
like to believe that they are helping !;
with tiny brooms they can sweep ;
they can dust and wash bit of kitch-
en- paint-only let the mother carry on
the work as if it were play. BY thus
becoming a part of the child-life OF
their little ones, mothers can gain a
real influence, attainable in no other
way. The child will be guided by the
one who is in sympathy with him.

The cookery of jelly is difficult, and
deserves more attention than it usually
receives. The following recipe may be
applied to all kinds of fruits:
Select currants that have been fresh
ly picked and are not too ripe. If they
are sandy, wash, but do not stem.
Mash small quantity at a time in a
stone jar with a wooden potato masher;
squeeze through coarse bag and then
drip again through a flannel bag,
without pressure, that the juice may
be perfectly clear. Measure it and
turn it into a porcelain lined kettle
Stand over brisk fire and boil rapidly
for twenty minutes. Put the sugar,
allowing one pound to every pint OF
juice, in .earthen dishes, and then in
the oven to heat, add it to the juice;
after the twenty minutes boiling, stir
hastily until the sugar is dissolved,
not longer. Bringing quickly to a
boil, try to see if it jellies. If it does
not, which is very unusual, boil it
rapidly for minute or two longer, but
be very careful not to over boil. Dip
tumblers in hot water, fill them with
the boiling jelly. and stand in a cool,
dry place for twenty-four hours. If
not sufficiently jellied by this time,
cover the tumblers with common Win
dow glass and stand them in the sun
for day or two until it does jelly.

There Is q real, iT minent danger lest
Day become mere holiday, di-
vested Of all religious features, except short
service In the church, which very few attend.
not Thanksgiving. God will not accept SER
vice which lacks every element Of devotion.
1t is an abomination unto Him. Theday may
be made one of signal blessing, but there must
be q sincere, heartfelt observance OF it.-ASSo-
ciate Reformed Presbyterian.
We have been impressed with the matter OF
which our Christian brother speaks so truth
fully and SO plainly. The fear Is not, that the
day may be "divested Of all religious features,
excepta short service in the church" but that
doubtful sports and doubtful amusements
may be substituted for even the forms OF "or-
ship.
We have long been impressed, too, with the
manner in which the Christmas holidays are
spent. Neither is the shooting of birds, nor
taking part in games of chance, nor the enter
Ing upon O drunken debauch-or the less eN-
cessiye use OF iutoxicants-a proper way to
render thanks to Almighty God, nor Is 1t the
right way to celebrate the birth of the Saviour
Of mankind. 1t Is eminently right and prop
or that we give thanks for blessings, ana that
we celebrate the birth Of our Saviour, In inno-
cent pleasures, but we submit tnat neituer
time is a proper occasion for gambling. drunk
enness and cruelty to dumb animals. The
Christmas day is the most sacred Of all the
days In the calendar Of the Christian church,
and yet no day in the year is celebrated with
more drunkenness and other wickednesses.
Whatever disposition o man-living in
Christian country-may have to indulge In
unlawful or immoral practices, he should at
least restrain himself on the Christmas day.
To celebrate the birth of our Saviour by i'm.
moral acts. is doubly sinful, and 1t Is indeed
wonderful that Christian people will toler-
ate such open violation Of the precepts ana
commandments of Him whose nativity is GEL
ebrated. To celebrate the birth Of our Saviour
by drunk en- debauch must be offensive to
all true followers Of the Lamb.

CHILL SAUCE.-This sauce is taking
the place of the old-time tomato
catsup. 1t is better to keep, and better
in every way than catsup. This tested
recipe can scarcely be too highly
recommended: Remove the skin from
peck of ripe tomatoes, and peel
eight white onions. Put them on the
fire, and cook them ten or fifteen
minutes; then add pint of venegar,
and q tablespoonful each of ground
cinnamon, allspice, and black pepper,
and O tablespoonful Of cloves. Tie
the spices in bag of coarse material.
Cook the mixture from four to five
hours, or until it is quite thick. Be
careful not to let it burn. When it Is
ready to take off the fire stir in q table,
spoonful of ground mustard, a tea
spoonful of cayenne pepper, two tea
spoonful of white ginger, and salt to
taste.

Take Your Hands out of Your Pockets

To begin with, it does not look well
when young man crooks his arms
and th1usts his hands into his pockets,
making a figure of himself, and then
stands up against the sunny side oi
the house.
How would the girls look, all turned
into S's and leaning against the wall
How would your mother look in that
posture? Catch her doing it! You
don't find her hands in her pockets
Your mothers hands d! While you are
loafng, they are the hands that sew
and bake and stew and fry and sweep
and darn and nurse, but she does not
sink them in her pockets and then lol
against building.
Are your hands cold? Warm them
up at the end of the hoe-handle and
cythe. Swing the hammer drive
the plane; flourish the axe. There is
untold caloric about the spade, trowel,
and wrench.
Besides, pocket heat Is not profita
BILE. Have you money there, though
Are your pockets the safes in which
you have hidden treasure, and youl
hands the bolts that secure the safe
door? Money may be there to-day
but it won't be guest over tomorrow
night. An idler's money is apt to leal
out Of his pocket. 1t is likely to 90 fol
a pipe, cigar, a tobacco plug, a mus

Take your hands out of your pocket
young man! You are losing time
Time is valuable. People feel it at th'
other end of the line, when death il

thing strange in the Insurance Company set

object In calling attention to the fact that the

section pays debt, or when farmer settles
an account or lien at any OF the stores, is such
act published in the newspapers? 1t looks tc

tho former conduct Of the insurance com
