Bill APPS Story OF Sam Noble.

Some years ago he said to me: 81 am
troubled about these humble people spend
ing their money for beer and whisky
Their families need that money and they
shall have it. They spent $24, 900 last
year at our saloon, and my share OF that
money burns in my pocket. | am going
to break it up. Their families shall have
it." Not long after this he closed the sa-
loon-it was the only one in Admission
and he made the workmen speech, a
thrilling speech. that was convincing and
effective, and the workmen sustained him,
and the wages that had been spent for
beer were placed in the bank and drew in
terest, and a new life was given to the
hunlo1e homes of the laboring people. We
met one of them-a Germans we were
walking around, and Sam Noble took him
by the hand with a cordial greeting and
said: "You are almost well again, jamie );
you look a good deal better than you did a
week ago. How are the wife and children?"
"All well, bless God and you, too, Mr..
Nobel We are all right and I'll be at
the furnace again on Monday. I have
$500 in the bank now and don't mind a
little sickness now and then; but you
know when we used to run the beer l
never had dollar in the bank. Bless God,
and you, too, Mr.. Noble, for stopping it 7"

Lost Opportunities.

A gentle, gracious old lady of seventy
lately told The following incident to her
grandchildren. We give as near as posi-.
BILE her own words:
81 drove out one day, when I was a
| young girl, to the park Some trife had
occurred to irritate me a disappointment
probably about a dress or hat | left
the carriage, and bidding the coachman
! drive on, sat down on bench near the
river.
"Some children were playing under the
trees, their nurses looking on. | remem-
Der that their noise annoyed me and that |
tried to control my ill-humor. But, l
thought, why should not be i'll humored
if chose? | was alone it could harm
nobody.
"a man stood near me leaning against a
tree. He attracted my attention because
his clothes were of fine quality, though
worn and ragged. There was something
about his air and manner, too, which be-
tokened gentle breeding. He turned and
saw me looking at him, and apparently
following a sudden impulse, came up and
asked me for work.
Il was not frightened, for his manner
was perfectly respectful, but was angry
at being annoyed by q stranger.
"'What work could have for your
sail.
""That is true He bowed and turned
away. | sat by the river for while, and
then went to meet the carriage, which
was returning.
"The man again stopped me. You are
young he said. You ought to have more
mercy than the world. lam very wretched
man. If you would use your influence,
could you not get me work 2
'His voice was so hoarse I thought he
had been drinking. | hurried on without
speaking. The coachman threatened him
with his whip, seeing that was annoyed.
| went home, but the mans pale face
haunted me all that night.
'sThe next morning my father read from
the paper The body of a man was found
last night in the river above the dam. 1t
proved to be that of Virginian named
Hall, who had been struggling with pow
erty and ill, health in the city for months
fHe had been starving the day before,
had applied for work to every one he met.
His last appeal was to me. A kind word
from me would have saved him.
''It was terrible lesson. Fifty wears
have passed since then; but even now I
wake at night with that mans face be-
fore me.
sit is not often that our lost opportuni-
ties are brought home to US in so forcibe
manner as this but it is none the less
true that every opportunity which we let
slip will one day look in our face and de-
mand an account of our use of it. Every
opportunity that we haS9 had of listening
TO the Gospel, and every offer of salvation
that we have rejected, will appear before
us in the judgment to condemn u.s. There
fore, lose no more; avail yourself of this,
another chance, for Now is the accepted
time, now is the day of salvation. -

FOUND.

Found-in the forks of a willow tree.
sight for angels and men to see
Found-a bottle of liquid VICE.
Seeds of disorder and sin to sow.
Found-a bottle of woman's tears,
The blight of childhood's happy years.
Found-the record of wasted life,
A history of sorrow. contention, strife.
Found in that bottle, hope chilled to despair.
Want famine, Indebtedness, all were found
there.
Deep in that bottle We're curses and groans,
Unkept resolutions which for sin neer atones.
In fact, most all ills were into it thrust.
Some that will live when the body is dust.
Did ever tree from willow root
Bear such crop of murderous fruit?
For whisper it softly under thy breath.
In its dregs were found madness, misery, death.
The above lines. written for the Oakland
Lyceum paper, were suggested by finding
bottle of alcohol concealed in the forks
of tree at that place. OL1N.
