Talk of the Town.

Change" yes, change" is
marked on everything. Nature
shows it invariably with her going
and coming seasons. Wintry winds
have "changed' into balmy breezes,
and gentle spring is whooping up
the buds, flowers and onions.
And the Alliance pillow boy, all rag
ged and torn,
Is whooping up the old mule, all
forlorn,
Frequently wishing he could hear
the dinner horn,
Or had been changed to "gal" be-
fore he was born.
So it is I" change" change"
Change" we hear,
From morn to morn, from year to

That roll in Leake's till at all times.
For the excellent quality of his
fancy groceries is town talk, and
nearly every Marietta table is sup
piled with good, substantial, healthy
food from Leake's stock, so varied,
complete and full. All the dainties
and delicacies for the sick or the
healthy, the poor or the wealthy,
can here be found in abundance, at
prices that suit the change" in all
pockets. Experience is knowledge
and the many years buying and
selling enables Leake to please in
quality as we'll as quantity. All
goods pure and fresh. Besides heavy

weekly Sermon.

The Parable of Anon, the third verse
of the tenth chapter, reads as follows:
And when he had smitten 1ercely with the
sword, behold he saw he was fighting moon
beam.
You will recall, beloved hearers, the
story of this Parable. A certain knight,
blessed by his king, had set forth fully
armorcd to gain laurels for himself and
his Lord. One evening, after variety
OF adventures, he thought he saw In the
way fierce enemy disputing his passage.
Straightway he drew his sword, closed
his armored coat and prepared to do bat
tie. He thrust, he hewed, he put forth
every effort, but still the enemy seemed
to hold the path, until at last, raising his
maii~l cap to cool his heated brow, be-
hold, he was fighting moon-beam. This
parable teaches us firstly to fight real IN
stead of imaginary evil. How many
ministers, in these last few months, have
been preaching sermons against Robert
What's-his-name, when not one Of their
congregation cared a fig for the theology
OF the book. And there were more church
members In his church who were fighting
mad with each other who needed to be
exhorted to put on Charity than you
could count on your fingers. Truly he
fought the shadow. And there Is your
neighbor, who Is going around trying to
ret DIR Biceps out of town. He says the
doctor did not cure his child and he Is
no doctor. And all the time his sink
drain Il running into his well and ne
fights the doctor, instead of the cause OF
the disease. BAH what fool he ismak-
ing OF himself, fighting the moonbeams.
And then there Ia Farmer Jones, who
wants To tar and feather the selectmen
because they did not red-fag the neigh

Lamps do not talk, but they do shine.
A lighthouse sounds no drum, it beats no
gong, and yet far over the waters its
friendly spark is seen by the mariner.
So let your actions shine in your relig-
ion. Let the main sermon of your life
be illustrated by all your conduct and 1t
shall not fail to be illustrious.-[The Oc-
cident.
Great love has privileges which make
her boldest advances no intrusion. Love
has the key of all the rooms of the Faith
er's house, Love has the range of Para
disc, Love may read the very heart of
God.-[spurgeon.
From the "Quiver" comes the suggest
ion that churches should form societies
for shaking hands with people and it is
right good suggestion, too. The trouble
with many of our churches is that the
members have paralysis of the elbow.
Think of poor woman going to church
for two years at the same place and no
one In all that time taking her hand and
asking of her welfare or her soul. How
we might brighten lives and tighten cares
by this simple act. This kid-gloved ex-
clusiyeness Is very poor recommend for
the religion Of Jesus Christ and a very
good thing for Satan to use to drive men
from the Saviour. How many people
has your church "frozen out" through
your carelessness9
The little island of Atufa in the South
Seas is remarkable for one thing; it is
said that every adult inhabitant Is men,

The heathenism of our government and
the pusillanimity of our lawmakers in
excluding the Chinese from the United
States is having its effect. The Chinese
government threatens to drive all mis-
sionaries out of Pekin and Canton in re-
taliatlon for the Chinese exclusion bill.
This, from the Lutheran Evangelist,
about the church edifice, might be pom
dered upon to advantage by some of our
churches: "A dirty, ragged carpet,
marked and dingy walls, dusty pews,
cobwebbed corners, weedy yard, tumbled
down fence, etc., show that lazy Christ
ians lnhabit the region round about and
that the voice of the sluggard is heard in
the land
According to the Interior, one person
in five Is u member of some Evangelical
Protestant church in the United States
and the prophecy is that the next census

paper which shall ignore John L. Sulli-
van and preach Jesus Christ. Verify the
Sons of God yet defile themselves with
the children of men.

Henry r. Marshall, the cashier of the

treasurer of st. Georges Episcopal
church, 20 years treasurer of the Episco-
pal missionary society for seameR and
agent for Mrs Martha Brakeman of Had
dam and for the trust funds of others.
All placed implicit confidence in him, but
$40, 900 of the seamen's society, a perma-
nent fund, Is missing, St. George is
large loser and so is Mrs Brakeman and
others. Mr. Marshall left an estate of
over $4,000, including life insurance
policies for $50, 900, house in New York
and the old Marshall homestead here.
Henry p. Marshall, the son, is as mysti-
fled as any one and thinks that his father
lost the securities when he was robbed
20 years ago.
