best cider in the neichborhood, and wa
equally famous Tor keeping it; and as
yet no person but himself and family
had been permitted to taste the good
stuff. At last one of his near neighbors
said he was bound to taste it. Accord

and entered into conversation with him
concerning his crops, ETC., and by de-
grees led him TO eak of his cider.
He then said 10 him:

"Yaw," replied the Dutchman,

Hans soon returned with the mug

astonished visitor, said,

HOME CALLS.


When the wOr day hours are closing
And the evening twilight falls,
How the homes throughout the city
Send forth their loving calls.
Calls so low, you may not hear them;
But how many hear and smile.
And tired hand and heads so weary
Are forgotten for the while.
The dear home sounds ring sweetly
In the ears OF tOlling men,
And. for We of wife and children,
They seek their homes again.
SO sit in the brooding twilight,
And watch as the homeward go,
With glad steps hurryng onward
TO the hearths that love them So
And ] long to cry out to them:
30, guard the home love we'll;
Be tender and true to your dear ones
How long yours, none can telll'
For know there is one among them
Whose heart in sadness roamS,
Who hears no call in the twilight,
Save the call to the Home of homes.

Pain Trnth

A lancet is not a very pleasant
instrument, and it inilicts mOmentary
pain: but it often brings permanent
relief from dangerous sore. We never
like to be disturbed with plain sharp
truths; Yet they are Indispensable to
our salvat on. Tie Apostle Peters first
discourse to the people OF Jerusalem
had nothing sensational or dramatic
about it. He set forth Jesus Christ
with straightforward duectness. pressed
his claims on them as both Christ and
Lord, and then told them that with
wi ked hands they had crucitied and
slain him The Holy Spirit sent these
plain truths home to them SO keenly
that they were pricked in their hearts,
and cried out "Ien and brethren, what
shall we do2' Their Understandings
were enlightened, their conscienccs
were awakened and they were convict
ed of their sins. The sword Of the
Spirit, when it is not muilled by any
cotton-battings OF compromise or
garlands OF rhetoric, will pierce sinners
hearts. The very best thing that could
have happened to those jerusalem
sinners was to be convicted of their
guilt before God; and it the greatest
possible favor and mercy to every
impenitent man or woman to send the
sharp arrows of truth into their con.
sciene es. A brief pain here may save
endless pain hereAfter.-R I. L.
Cuyler in Evangelist.

tions were read from parties residing in

time of the trouble, after which an adjourn
ment was taken until 10 A. NJ. to-day, when

Suit Upon Injuries.

S. B. Williams commenced suit in the Su-
perior Court yesterday against the Califor-
mia Central Railroad Company to recover
$4,000 damages for injuries. Plaintiff al
leges as cause of action that the defendant
is the owner of a station known as Ray
mood, and that there was no safeguard
placed around the platform by the railroad
company. On the 18th of December, last,
plaintiff went to the station, and the night
icing cold and dark, he paced up and down
the platform to keep warm while waiting
for train. Not being able to see where the
platform ended, he stepped off and injured
himself severely on the ground below.
These injuries he thinks amounted to $780,
